Mostly my mind is random. Sometimes full of useful information, often. Monday, December 7, 2015. When I was young I told myself that when I was grown up I wanted to be able to do lots of things on my own, and never pay someone to do something that I could do myself.

A working mom, a working dad, a busy kid, a busier toddler, and the busiest baby. Sunday, February 22, 2015. So, I already updated on my kids - well here is a general update. We need our own place! Oh, and the fact that my baby brother was going to move into the unit when he started school in the fall. Sooooo, Tom and I started the house hunting.

Maddie taking in the breezy evening of Liverpool. The streets where the Beatles walked and wandered. Maddie and I attempted to rescue this poor cat, but the cat would have none of us taking it to the vet. It clawed me and ran away. No good deed goes unpunished. Taunting Ryan that I get to chill in our flat in England while he has to work for the man. I think this was the day I had to take a cold shower because our heat went out. The Brits were unsympathetic to my plight. A view of the pitch.

First Day of School and early morning swim team 2014. Chicago to see Clint and Tava.

An up-to-the-whenever-I-get-around-to-it accounting of the activities, feelings and thoughts of the Hoeger Family. Back to work and back to school. and none to soon! They both enjoy their teachers so far. Heaven knows we had enough their first day of school. I believe it took me until 1 in the morning to finish filling out all the forms they bring home.
