This space once chronicled life with children and our Dallas adventures. Now the kids are grown, and I’m still adventuring — traveling, thinking, and writing — as I learn to trade social media scrolling for slower reflections.

Something to write about
I have been trying to think of something blog worthy to write about, should it be how the kids are playing with Lee's old Star Wars toys (they were in a huge box in his parent's attic), or maybe these great books that I have recently read and can't stop thinking about (Olive Kitteridge and The House at Sugar Beach), or the enjoyment I have found in reading the Percy Jackson books (they are like the Harry Potter books but deal with mythology instead of wizardry) or how much I have going on before the middle of November? Before then I am training and walking in the Komen 3 Day for the Cure (walking 60 miles in 3 days) with my mom, helping with Madeleine's school's participation in the National PTA Reflections Art Program, helping as the classroom rep for Madeleine's class (I send reminder emails to the parents), and oh yes, working for the church 20 hours a week... But instead, I will blog about the slice of heaven that I tasted today when I ordered the dipped cone from McDonald's after picking Madeleine up from school. When this deliciousness was placed in my hands the chocolate was still warm, and as it hardened it became more delectable with every bite. So very tasty!!!

That picture reminds me of the guy who ate nothing but McDonalds food for 30 days and ended up heavier and less healthy at the end of it.
On a lighter note, both Voyager spacecraft are still operating since being launched in 1977.
Too much McDonalds can really do it to you. Just look what it did for me.
