(yes, it’s misspelled on purpose.) It’s incredibly wonderful to wake up a little chilly because of the amazingly cool breeze blowing throw the windows. I love that feeling! And it means my husband and finally get to snuggle because it’s not a bazillion degrees. :) To top it all off, the temperature isn’t supposed to […]
The One with the Feeding of the Five Thousand
Somehow, we still have money. God is providing…out of nowhere. I can’t say much more than that. It’s impossible. But obviously not. Last night we ate homemade pizza. Satisfied a craving…even though it had very little cheese on it. It was still delicious. S’mores from the broiler are really top notch. (That is if and […]
The One with Beautiful Pictures
Kevin and I before the wedding. The Bride, Groom, and Bubbles. My beautiful newly married friend, Amber, and I.~~~~~~~~~~~ Going to bed while it’s still light outside is sure proof you’re sick. I was ok most of the afternoon yesterday, but almost as soon as Kevin was coming home (and I could hardly wait till […]
The One with the Peanut Butter Pretzels
Halfway through our trip home I started feeling rather miserable. Not only do I have about 5 extra pounds in water making me feel not so good, but nausea began creeping over me. We got home and unpacked and I talked to my good friend Ruth on the phone for a half hour which was […]
The One with the Old School Christian Rock
….Yeah, you know what I’m talking about. (And if you don’t, we’re not friends anymore.) (Ok. Just kidding. Mostly.) I’m way excited to be picking up my love from work around noon and HITTING THE ROAD! It’ll be great arriving before dinnertime for once…with a stop for shopping in Mentor. It’s a favor for my […]
The One with all the Afghans
My thoughts for the day: It’s so exciting to finish a book, but so sad when you realize you’ve finished. I love that one of my best friends can just stop in on her way to and from Canada and the US. Even if it’s just for 20 minutes. I love finding common bonds with […]
The One with the Humidity
I am ashamed slash proud of the fact that I used the pinesol, mop and mop bucket for the first time this morning (very nice supplies thanks to Elizabeth). I sweep (especially our bathroom) about twice a week, I vacuum about that much, I clean the sinks when they get dirty and the same goes […]
The One with the Clouds
I’ve had the urge to whip up a batch of good ol’ fashion chocolate chip cookies. Our “snack” selection is running a little bland, so I thought this homemade goodness would be just the remedy. I decided to make only half a batch since we’re leaving for my hometown on Friday. That said, despite the […]
The One with the Potluck
We were pleasantly surprised when we got to church today. Being gone for two weeks keeps pertinent information from you. There was an all-church potluck following the morning service. Three cheers for that! [side note: what on earth is the origin of the term “pot. luck.”? You bring a pot of something and you get […]
The One with the Bookshelves
Isn’t it funny how on the days you can sleep in, you still manage to wake up at the same time your dreadful alarm normally sounds? Maybe you don’t know what I’m talking about (and if you don’t count yourself blessed), but that’s what happens to me every weekend. But you know what, even though […]
