I am usually an open book...

however have made the decision to have The Schmidt House be invite only, you are the ones that I want to share our lives with - if there is someone that I have omitted by mistake, please let me know. Think that there are some family members that I do not have email addresses for, so will need to track those down.

I have found that I have been a little blog "stuck" for the last few months knowing that there were a lot of people who read my site and I became a little self conscious about what I was writing as to not offend anyone - not like I go out of my way to offend, but after awhile you realize that there are some pretty sensitive folks out there. I know it takes all kinds for the world to go around, however I don't want to have to worry about it when I am here.

So now I feel a little more free to speak my mind which you all know has never been a problem, but now I feel I am among friends.

Thanks for sharing this little adventure with the Schmidts...

I just sighed a great big sigh for you. I hope this is once again an outlet for you. I do think I would be insane without my bloggirls.

Thanks guys for the encouragement - I truly did breathe a big sigh yesterday when I was done posting. Funny what a little security does for the soul.

Bobbi - will try to not have anymore blazing rodent stories, at least not for this year :)

it took me this long to go through the "process" of being certified as a reader and i had to giggle when it consisted of me hitting the "accept" button. i am a knucklehead.

i too find myself editing my content based on not offending...especially after bobbi found my blog linked to a crazy guy who writes for the newspaper. privacy is indeed a good thing.

i loved the squirrel story. i'm sure he was fine, and his wife probably chastised HIM for setting up home in a chimney "i told you this would happen, but Nooooo, you were too lazy to go find a good tree..."

Six weeks

I am sidelined for at least six weeks. No tennis - no good. My bad wheel turned into immobile wheel today thanks to an air cast. Not the most attractive accessory. I had been trying to continue playing with the plantar fasciitis guess I figured it was going to be around for awhile so might as well deal with it. This plan actually worked out for the best because when I was playing on Thursday there was this loud pop in the bottom of my foot. Suddenly my heel felt better, so I thought, "Maybe it released all of the bad heel juju into the rest of my foot." Well, it was something like that. Evidently I tore a ligament in my foot which the doctor told me is really the best thing that could have happened. The reason why is it cured the plantar fasciitis. Plus the recovery time for the ligament thing is about six weeks versus potentially months or years with the other. So all in all I guess it was a good thing to tear a ligament. I am bummed because I can't do any exercise for t...

Tightrope walking on a string

This has been one of "those" weeks where I often find myself scared to slow down and assess the situation because when I do I start to get this really tight feeling in my chest and I feel nauseous. Does anyone else get that? When life is going mach 10 with your hair on fire...and if you stop you just might fall right over from that string you are balancing everything on... I am going to bed.
