As I sit here all clean and cozy in my favorite plush white robe, waiting for my oatmeal to thicken I thought I would do a little random updating. These were my thoughts yesterday. I was trying to find some calendar information on the Spring Arbor website but was having no luck. That’s when I […]
The One with the Comfy
It’s been a while. I feel a little guilty. But I haven’t had much to say. No…scratch that…I just haven’t felt like writing. Today was sweatpants day. And headache day. But what day isn’t headache day? I baked a white cake from scratch. The recipient tells me it was delicious. Our evenings have been […]
The One with Brilliance
I just opened the curtains in the office and gasped. You see, the sun is just now beginning to rise and while most of the sky is still a hazy blue, the horizon is brilliantly making a statement in a deep pinkish-orange. I’ve seen many beautiful sunsets but the colors of this sunrise is phenomenal. […]
The One with a Warm Snow Globe
It may be (below) freezing outside (and a bit nippy inside too) but I’m staying pretty cozy. Thanks to my wonderful mother-in-law who happens to be a talented crochet “artist,” my entire body can be wrapped snuggly in one of our two oversized afghans. :D Yesterday I finally finished my most recent reading endeavor. This […]
The One with Dora
When the phone rang at 10:30 this morning and I saw who the call was from, I contemplated passing on the pick up. I know, I know. You can’t imagine ME ignoring someone’s call! Well, if you knew this person, you’d probably do the same. A simple phone call that should last…oh…3-5 minutes at most easily turns […]
The One with a Stomach Stuffed with Pizza
This weekend was quite a blast. And not just of the fluffy white stuff. (…which I love by the way.) Kevin & I hit the road around 5:30 pm on Friday and arrived in Spring Arbor around 7pm. We had a delicious hamburger dinner accompanied by the greatest fellowship–family. Saturday was the first time in […]
The One with the Medical Issues
My current issue has to do with one of the loves in my life…FOOD! Yes, I have had chronic stomach and intestinal problems as long as I can remember and I have never done anything about it. I think I just figured it was the way things were gonna be and that’s that. But the […]
The One with Homecooked Meals
Did I mention the applesauce I made on Saturday? It was a completely spur of the moment idea and boy oh boy are we both glad I thought of it! I had a bag of MacIntosh apples that we were not enjoying as much as the Granny Smiths and the Ida Reds. Obviously I did […]
The One with the “Role Models”
This morning I had a hard time persevering on that ellipse. I just don’t feel too hot. Yesterday morning I woke up with a weird feeling in my throat. Within a few hours the left side was sore. I felt the lymph nodes on the outside of my neck and they were swollen and painful. […]
The One where the Office is Rearranged
It’s weird how six months seems like no time at all when you are reunited with your best friends. New Years Eve brought that very opportunity–party with the college girls! Most all of my greatest girls from SAU were able to gather at Angie & Nick’s to spend some long awaited quality time with each […]
