This week begins the busy, and it continues for a couple of weeks. There are birthdays (even a “half” one), there are parties and celebrations. There is shopping and baking to do (not sure if I’m doing the baking yet or not…). Tomorrow I will be hosting a giveaway (come check it out, it’s something…
A Week From Today
Sometimes time passes quickly. Like when you’re at the mall, shopping BY YOURSELF for the perfect outfit because you finally have somewhere to go besides the grocery store and you’re NOT going to have any of the kids with you and therefore will not get any spit-up or snot on said outfit. Then time goes…
THE Most Random Post EVER (at least that I’ve ever written)
This post is REALLY random. And there’s random pics of my kids mixed in, just for the heck of it. * Do you ever wonder how people come up with or invent things? Like who figured out that a little piece of paper with sticky stuff on the back would be like one of the…
Spillage
I’ve been doing a lot of quick posts lately. Sometimes it’s hard to sit down and write. Especially when I’m tired a lot. And even a tad depressed. My life is good. I have everything I need or want. Except. My ideal body. I try not to get too wrapped up in it all. I…
Mommy. ME.
Sometimes life can be a bit overwhelming. You know like when you’ve just come back from a whirlwind trip to visit family and friends, back in the town where you used to live that you still miss and you drive by your old house and can see the light beaming through the front door and…
Distractions
I feel like I’m constantly distracted. I feel like other people are constantly distracted. On any given day while my husband is talking to me during dinner after he has just walked in the door 5 minutes ago and I’m bribing the 2 year old with the promise of dessert to eat his vegetables and…
Love and Prayers for Haiti
As I click around my little corner of the blogo-sphere this week I feel like I’m about the only person who hasn’t said something about the tragic earthquake in Haiti. It’s not that I don’t know it happened and it’s certainly NOT that I don’t feel for the people of that nation and pray for…
Displaced
It’s been over 5 months since we left Texas. Five months to find a new place for Chinese take out (it took ALMOST THAT long). Five months to find a church we like (but not nearly as much as our previous one). Five months of meeting new people and finding our way around town. We’re…
He Ran Out to Get What Could Be Our 500th Tube Since We Got Married
We put the Christmas tree up on Saturday. We (meaning I) kept it pretty simple this year and didn’t even put EVERY.SINGLE ornament on the tree. Since our entire living room is 18 inch tiles I bought a VERY large piece of felt to put under the tree and am hoping (and praying) that it…
