A fun and slightly zany look at the life we call "normal"

Last Day of November....and Mark
Well, tomorrow is the big day! Mark leaves at 0700 for Roswell and I'm off for a three week run of single parenting and packing. I would be tempted to just jump in the car and forget the rest of the school year, except Mark only has a two bedroom house lined up.
It's been really frustrating looking for a house over there, because single agents are snatching up the three and four bedroom houses in the off chance that their families come and visit. Can't say I wouldn't do the same, but when there are so many two and one bedroom homes out there, and only a few three and four bedrooms, it gets a little old. Also many agents are coming out only for 2-6 months. We are scheduled for a year. You would think that would give us some extra ummph...Oh well!
We found old video tapes today of my kids interviewing Great Grandma Sanders, and our house before we bought it. It's funny, because we're sitting there taping it talking about the renovations we should do and all the things wrong with the house. Shouldn't that be a wakeup call??? Oh well! That's life! We'll post some of that video as soon as one of my genius brothers teaches me how to convert videotapes into YouTube or something like that. Goodnight!

Why Wyld 1z?
So someone wanted to know, Why the Wyld 1z? It all started a few years ago....
Well, more like 11. Mark had his "bachelormobile", the Bronco, and had a license plate "Wyld 1" on the front. So along comes Sally (that would be me actually) and we hook up, and the Bronco went away for something more affordable and "eco-friendly" (Mark would kill me for saying that LOL) But the license plate stayed above his doorway.
After we were engaged, I joked about how it had to be put away now, and there was not going to be any Wyld 1 in our house. Then we had kids....
Apparently the "wyld" gene is inherited, or it might even be contagious because I now fit in the category also. We started doing a family activity called Geocaching and needed a login name. We both decided that The Wyld 1z was the perfect fit. So if you find a geocache with the Wyld 1z's signature, you know we've been there! And now if you see a post here, you know we've been here also!

Online and Heading out!
Well, here we are, all online so you lucky people can catch up with all the gossip. The aunts thought we should get our own blog so we knew what was going on in each other's lives and see the kids growing up before it was time to send out their wedding announcements so here it is! Write more later!
