I don’t really feel like blogging right now, but I also didn’t want the “sick” blog headlining for much longer. I’m still not 100%…a bit weak and such (which is hard for me to deal with…) but praise God for the phenergan injection (yowzers that stung for 24 hours!) and the prescription that eased my […]
The One that’s Sick
So the weekend was great. Before 4:00pm on Sunday that is. Let’s just say that 4 hours of vomitting and…other…things…. in addition to severe stomach pains sends you to the Emergency Room. I’m so thankful for the quick service there. I’m also eternally grateful for my husband who was more than willing to comfort me […]
The One before Camp
In a couple hours I’ll be driving a couple of our teens and myself to SBC for Senior Teen Winter Retreat. I’ve not been a “counselor” since 2005 so that’s weirding me out a little. I’m not sure if I’m going to have more than just my girls in my “cabin.” I love being out […]
The One with the Five Swimming Pools We Didn’t Even Visit
Right now I’m annoyed. Annoyed at ABC Family. You see, this summer I started watching Gilmore Girls every afternoon at 5pm. I had seen random orders of episodes during last school year as all of the girls in my house were big fans. So when I found the show on daily I enjoyed watching the […]
The One with the Souper Bowl
After the whole youth group made their mark on the chili and the tortilla chips and nacho dip, the boys headed downstairs to watch the big game as boys do. The girls had the best night, though. (In my extremely biased opinion.) We spent our time frosting 100+ sugar cookies that we will be giving […]
The One with Another Blog
This just in–a recipe blog has been started by this homemaking wife. If you’re ever interested check it out at http://adorkablerecipes.blogspot.com/. I will do my best to post whatever delicious items I am tempting you with in this blog. Thanks to those great girls who encouraged me to start sharing my cooking and baking formulas with […]
The One with the Free Food
Yesterday was great. It was great with the enormous exception of watching two of our three fishies die. I was just trying to be a good caretaker. I was cleaning their filthy tank. Apparently I’m a horrible caretaker. I thought they would be happy. Instead I was very sad. I watched as they floated upside […]
The One with the Creamy-ness
A lovely evening. It all began this morning when I decided to try my hand at homemade pasta. When the fettuccini looked presentable I figured why not go homemade all the way. Alfredo sauce from scratch. Everything cooked up beautifully and tasted even better. *pats self on the back* I finished Twilight just now. It […]
The One with Lots of Things
Saturday was a great day all around. Come to think of it this whole weekend was nearly perfect. And I don’t say that about just any weekend. Saturday morning I headed for Canton where I met up with a bunch of women (including my favorite mother-in-law and one of my wonderful grandmothers-in-law) from across […]
The One while waiting for the new What Not to Wear
A wonderful Friday has been had. Warm leftover homemade potato soup for lunch. Reading and studying and quieting was perfect. Decided on calzones for dinner. Made by hand. Surprised husband. Excitement and smiles abounded. Quality time together cherished. Time to relax. Time to plan for tomorrow. Tomorrow includes an IKEA shopping spree. With 39 other […]
