Magnetic Matthews: September 2009
http://magneticmatthews.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Fall in Arizona means double digit temperatures, lower electric bills, open windows and fresh air. Fall in Arizona means coming out of summer hibernation and enjoying the outdoors again with bike rides, hikes, and nights relaxing on the back patio. Fall in Arizona means ASU football and letting the kids go trick-or-treating without wearing a big jacket to keep warm. Thursday, September 24, 2009. EXHIBIT A: Potato Soup. It came out much more watery than I remember. After looki...

Magnetic Matthews: May 2010

Tuesday, May 25, 2010. Day 4: Up Where the Air is Clear. After a day at sea, we woke up in the Virgin Islands. St. Thomas to be exact. Here we signed up to do something I've wanted to try for years. PARASAILING! As we waited for our scheduled departure we decided to browse some of the shops nearby in search of a sun hat for me. How about this one? Just a wee bit understated don't you think? We need something a bit bigger. Roaming about the country. Sunday, May 23, 2010. Day 2 and 3: The Fun Begins. The f...

Magnetic Matthews: March 2010
http://magneticmatthews.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 30, 2010. What's in a name? It came to my attention after my last post that every cool car has to have a name, and then I realized that I forgot to mention the RAV's name. Names are important (just ask any parent), so we batted around a number of ideas and hopefully came up with a good one. Since the car is blue we thought that would be a good place to start. Given Avatar's recently popularity we considered Na'vi.but it sounded to similar to Nuvi our Garmin GPS. So what about Smurfette?

Magnetic Matthews: How much is that doggie in the window?
http://magneticmatthews.blogspot.com/2010/07/how-much-is-that-doggie-in-window.html
Saturday, July 3, 2010. How much is that doggie in the window? About a month ago we said goodbye to our old family dog Yoda. As Nate and I helped my family look at listings for new furry friends Nate mentioned how he had thought about getting a dog for us to keep me company while he's gone. So after a couple weeks of thinking and looking we found this little guy. Is Buster in there with you? Nocan't you find him? Is he in his crate? Is he on the spare bed? Well he has to be somewhere in here.". July 11, ...

Tuesday, September 7, 2010. Diary of a Residency Widow: Who you gonna call? What produces an ear splitting, heart pounding tone unexpectedly in the middle of the night? The smoke detector, I concluded. I didn't smell any smoke though so I assumed it was just a dying battery. I ran down the stairs and furiously tried to get the detector off the wall, knocking down our pull-up bar and freaking out the dog in the process. I took out the battery and.the sound continued. Frustrated and with panic levels risin...

Magnetic Matthews: Diary of a Residency Widow: Bring Me a Dream
http://magneticmatthews.blogspot.com/2010/08/diary-of-residency-widow-bring-me-dream.html
Sunday, August 22, 2010. Diary of a Residency Widow: Bring Me a Dream. Dear Mr. Sandman-. We need to talk. Over the years we have had a fairly good relationship, much better than your counterpart Mr. Alarm-Clock. I look forward to your nightly visits, yet lately on nights when my dear husband is away on call you've been consistently tardy. Don't you know it is rude to leave a lady waiting? August 23, 2010 at 11:08 AM. I sleep so soundly without a snore to interrupt. Take a hot bath before bed; might help.

Magnetic Matthews: School's Out Forever!
http://magneticmatthews.blogspot.com/2010/07/schools-out-forever.html
Saturday, July 31, 2010. June 4, 2010 marked a day that was almost 8 years in the making. On June 4, 2010 Nate graduated medical school and officially became a doctor. Wooohooo! Luckily I was able to get this one of Nate being hooded. With oaths taken and the speeches over, the new class of doctors was lead out of the auditorium by pipers. The next day we all celebrated Dr. Nate at a bbq pool party at my parent's house. And what graduation party would be complete without a cannonball competition. How muc...

Magnetic Matthews: January 2010
http://magneticmatthews.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 26, 2010. Someone's in the Kitchen. Becoming unemployed has given me the time to do a few projects that I have wanted to do but haven't had the time to previously. Let's face it, I have to find ways to keep myself busy, and day time TV isn't very good. The biggest project I decided to take on was painting my kitchen cabinets. Finally we could paint. Labels: Making house a home. Friday, January 15, 2010. You may remember this post. How do you measure a year? 525,600 minutes, 525,000 momen...
