		Bad day at the Dog Park! Saturdays we take our dog to the Runway Dog Park before 10 am. Recently, I went after 10 am. Note to self- NEVER Again!Each visit to the dog park is about one hour of pure frisbee action.

		Mother's Day to my soul mate This year I had already decided not to get flowers or a card for my mother, not because I don't love her but because I don't even know where all the cards are that I have received in the past.  I decided instead to dedicate every Sunday to spending time with her and my daughter.   ...

		Yay Ebay! Friday May 9th, 2008 - Lake Villa, ILI love Ebay. What a great idea that was. A world wide rummage sale that gets people to bid against each other on a third party of people’s junk.
