Glimpses of Sara

My son after his final performance in “Beauty and the Beast.” He played both a beast and a prince perfectly… just like in real life. :)

Loving being with my husband

Temporarily pouting, but permanently enlightened!

My friend Robena and I took a selfie prior to embarking on the Dash for Diabetes 5K Saturday morning.

(When you’re not great at shooting selfies while driving, transform them into sketches…. ) While I did ask my son how I looked before I left for my first day on the job, I didn’t think about shooting a photo — until I reached my first STOP sign. I look more happy than anxious. :)

Spontaneous selifes by way of illustration: The two on the left were done with modern technology, me looking at what would be the mirror image WYWIWYG. The right one, quasi modern, digital smartphone camera but holding it as I would a traditional camera.

My dad walked me down the aisle and gave me away, despite my bird’s nest hairdo.

Actually, I was holding the pitchfork, and I wasn’t smiling…

A selfie of my mother and I on my last visit.

The fun before the storm… Little Orange Riding Hood and her sister Trish with unruly, not overly photogenic or cooperative football fans in the background. Did these people not feel the raindrops splashing around us? This was the weekend before the Nightmare with Coughin’ began…

Me and my poison ivy–not thrilled with each other even a week after it appeared.

Adam and I a mere six years ago…

Stainless steel frames with progressive, no-line bifocal lenses that are photochromatic and have a premium oleophobic anti-reflective coating for a mere $136.26 shipped to my mailbox in two weeks or less. Zenni, you should hire me to advertise for you.)

That would be me…. and, yes, I am smiling behind the mask.

Proud mama and her baby boy

Stars upon thar driver licenses…

My mom with my son Adam and me on Mother’s Day 2012.

So it poured rain the day of commencement, which meant it was a bad hair day. But it was a great day with my new, old friends anyway!

My mom and I when we visited the butterfly museum last summer.

Daughter-in-love and mother-in-love. :)

Me, this morning, with the trusty float destined to save me from all the denizens of the deep — and the shallows.

Have to drink and run? Not fun

A “prepper for a colonoscopy” is merely a pooper, stockpiling nothing, flushing everything. Continue reading Have to drink and run? Not fun

Did you have a nice trip?

I fell, sprawled on hands and knees — but no scrapes, no bruises, just a wrenched back that I optimistically thought might have been moved into alignment. Continue reading Did you have a nice trip?
