I can’t believe they did this, but my husband and his boss hired … another driver. Not one, but 2 more! On. My. Goodness. If we aren’t careful we are going to have more drivers than Neveda has hotels in Las Vegas. This puts us up to … 15 […]

A year ago, Ethan talked me into letting him get his own domain, and starting a blog. He came up with a really great name, Acting Thru Faith, and so I said “yes”. Its only $3 a month, and something like $15 a year to own this fine piece of internet real […]

Ethan turns 17 in less than a month. With the year he has had, being 16, we have wondered if maybe we should have invested in body shop supplies with all the trouble he has had with “remodeling” several vehicles. Granted, he has stepped up to the plate, and taken financial responsibility […]

Ethan needs to leave in a few minutes for JIMS practice. As he cruises to the church, I hope he keeps his mind on his driving, and not other things. Two of the three wrecks that he has had, has happened right after this practice he has Sunday nights. With the first […]

Ethan made it home safe and sound last night. And of course, he had a hundred stories to tell us. It sounds like they had a really good time. He wanted to look nice for this conference, so last week, he got his hair cut (yes! finally! his hair […]

Ethan left for a Thespian Conference on Thursday, and won’t get home until 7:00 or so tonight. So, its been a quite, if not productive day. I made a list of things I wanted to get done, and have made it through most of the list. Been decluttering, cleaning, even made […]

The first day in a week, he isn’t running a fever. But, he still doesn’t feel good. When I saw him at noon, he was doing pretty good. But when he came home around 5:00, he went straight to bed. So, he’s still not totally over whatever it is that he […]

I need to get email Deb at A Flyover Blog and let her know what David did. Sometime in the next 18 months, we will be traveling to Branson Missouri for a mini-vacation. It was one of those time-share telemarketing phone calls, but for some reasons, David decided to listen to them, and […]

The Service Team at our church decided to invest in a “Phone Tree”. I was a little skeptical at first, but I am definately sold on it now. Instead of sending out postcards and/or making phone calls when we have an event we want to promote, whoever is in charge of the event […]

With the year still being in its first days, I implemented something that I have been wanting to do. I started another blog. I know. I know. But this one is a bit different. I really don’t have to think of anything to say. It is a “Picture A Day” […]

I learned something this week. When you say “flu” — throwing up comes to mind. So, when the doctor said David had the flu, it didn’t make sense to me. He’s not throwing up, he’s not even nauseous. He has a bit of a cold — but he has had lots […]

W ords that I have never heard in the 24 years of marriage, came out of my husband’s mouth this morning. “I’m not going to work”. He has never ever said that. He’s been sick before, but he has always gone, regardless. He’s been running a fever for the last […]

I didn’t want to get out of bed this morning. Which, is the pretty normal. I never want to get up most mornings. But this morning was different. For awhile now, I wake up to my heart pounding, and most definately out of rhythm. Just a way of life. […]

I am so pleased with today. Makes me think that the meds that Dr. B put me on just might actually be kicking in. I puttered along at the church, addressing the cards the board members signed last night (this is kinda like my little ministry. I buy “Thinking of you” cards […]

I wonder if I can convince Ethan to make a car donation with his car. Right after Ethan got his driver’s license, David bought a car for him at an auction, for $185.00. All considering, it gave him very few problems, even though it is older than Ethan is! Since then, David has bought him […]

It pays to be a sandwich. The weather guy just said that to the east of us, they are having thunderstorms and tornado warnings and watches. To the west of us, snow. But us? We have had 50-60 degree weather today, and its not supposed to get down to freezing tonight, […]

Its been a half way productive weekend, considering that part of it has found us on the go. Yesterday we played “fix it” with our vehicles. David determined that my Explorer not starting Friday wasn’t the battery. He wanted our local garage to look at it, esp. when the “Check […]

He doesn’t understand. Heck, I don’t understand. I just know that I have to dig really deep to go anywhere. If it was up to me, I would stay home. All. The. Time. He doesn’t understand my “less than enthusastic” response when he says we are going out to […]

It just seemed to be one of THOSE days. Not terribly bad, but just little annoyance things. Starting with my Explorer not starting this morning. And normally, this would have been a huge hassle; but earlier this week, we ended up playing “musical vehicles” again. My middle son has been looking […]

Its been a long day, and I am ready to go to bed, even though Jay Leno isn’t on. We usually stay up and watch him, but I’m thinking tonight, he’s going to have to go on without us. I got the newsletters done and out, so thats a relief. I do […]

Today went alot better than I had anticipated. After the holidays, and not working for several days, being faced with deadlines and projects once I returned back to work, I was sure it would be a highly stressful kind of day. But in reality, it was quiet, and I was able to accomplish […]

Its been a laid back, easy going kind of day. David stood around at an auction in single digit tempatures, but that was HIS choice. I chose to stay in where it was nice and toasty warm. I had a bit of an upset stomach, so spent part of the day, just […]

During the month of November, I failed to jump on the NaBloPoMo bandwagon. Blogging every day during the month of November. Should be a piece of cake. I blog — at one blog or the other — most every day. But now, I am more or less going […]
