Creepy Picture

Stare at this picture for a little while until you find something wrong with it.

Mental Health Day

I had a meeting this morning that I needed to attend for Camden.  That resulted in my needing a substitute to cover my morning classes.  When requesting my sub last week, I figured why not get one for the entire day and take a much needed mental health day?  So that’s just what I did!  I dropped Camden off at school, the meeting came and went fairly quickly, and now I’m back at home doing some “mom” things.  So far I’ve:

fed the cats
taken out the trash
washed laundry
baked a cake
cleaned the kitchen

It’s days like today that I miss being a stay-at-home mom.  I was fortunate enough to be able to stay home with Camden for the first 5 years of his life.  Were there days that I hated it?  Absolutely.  But I wouldn’t trade that time for anything. 

I think I’ll add a nap to the list above.  Sound Asleep

Why Men Die First

I received these pictures from Carolyn and thought I’d share.

Happy 2012!

Happy 2012!  We had a busy 2011 and are looking forward to 2012.  My resolution for this year is to spend more time on this website.  I’ve really neglected it and spent most of my time on FB (ugh – I really need to get off of there).  I started this website in 2002 (yes, **10** years ago!) and need to focus more on our original webhome — leake-family.com:mrgreen:

Some of the highlights of 2011:  Camden is doing so well in 5th grade.  He’s making straight A’s and learning so much.  I cannot believe in just a few months he’ll be moving to middle school.  John and I are doing well at work.  We’ve been working on some home improvements and have several, large improvements planned for 2012.  The cats are fine.  In December, 2011 we took a wonderful family vacation to Florida over the Christmas break.  It was a surprise to Camden – he had no idea we were planning this trip and didn’t find out until we parked at the airport.  We took him to the new Legoland park as well as visited Universal Studios.  It was a fun, but exhausting, trip!
