Its All In The Planning

Sometime this fall, I am hoping, David and I are going to head off for a 4 day vacation in Branson. There are several things I am looking forward to, besides the actual trip. There is a chance we will get to meet a fellow blogger who lives in that area. And […]

Looking For Something Else

David should be home pretty soon. He is out helping his dad with a water line. I don’t know if its clogged, or if it is just leaking. But it seems like they have spent an awful lot of time on it. Too bad its not as easy as doing […]

Moving Things Around

I wonder what they did with the exercise equipment? The after-prom activities were at the rec center. I know alot of the activities went on in the gym, but there were other things going on, and I am sure they used the other rooms that the rec center has. I wonder […]

Sleeping The Day Away

Too bad Ethanis sleeping the day away — it was a beautiful spring day — the temps are in the 70’s, no wind, no rain. A. perfect. day. A good day to get out your boardshorts and tank tops, and just soak up the wonderful spring day that has been given to […]

Identifying With An Object

I was going through some boxes the other day, in my effort to continue decluttering, and the boxes I was going through were from my aunt’s apartment that we boxed up after she passed away. Its hard to get rid of things that you identify with someone so much. I will probably […]

Post Prom Night

With a big sigh of relief, we do not have to contact our car insurance agent. Last night was prom night. Lots of teenagers. Late hours. Hopefully, no alchol was involved — that was the plan, and the school did what they could (after-prom activities) to intice the kids not […]

Looking Ahead

There are so many things we will need to be looking into this next year. The obvious one is student loan’s and everything that will be involved with sending Ethan to college. Something that is not quite so obvious is looking at our life insurance policy, and seeing what we need to change […]

Anything Is Possible

Because of a heart condition, alot of the diet products and fat burners on the market are off limits to me. I know that if I want to lose weight or get skinnier, I am going to have to do it the “old fashioned” way, with sensible eating and exercise. But what if […]

Skin Condition. Is It Hereditary?

Everyone is our family is pretty fair complected, but David does have a skin disorder that his dad also has, that only flares up in the summer time. They get huge patches of red. Its not a rash or anything like that, so skin lightening products probably wouldn’t make any difference on […]

The Way It Used To Be

We won’t be packing our luggage this year, but in years past, both David and I have gone away on retreats during April, and the first part of May. Our church supports a college in Missouri, that has an annual Women’s Retreat, and its the last week in April. I went for […]

Washing My Hands

I know that the new “fangled” bathroom vanities that they have now in all the public places like Walmart and shopping malls, the airport, etc, are for sanitary purposes, but is it just me? I feel like a dufus sometimes, waving my hand under the spigot, for the water to start running, […]

Health Blessings

I’m sure this is TMI, but as I look back over the past few years, regardless of what has gone on with my health and emotional state, I feel fairly certain that I have possible gone through menopause with flying colors. No period, no pms pains, no hot flashes, and yes, I […]

It Was The Pits

It took having a couple of babies to clear up my acne that I had as a teenager. My mother had acne really really bad. I don’t know if its genetic, but it seemed to be passed down to me (and I’ve passed it down to Ethan). But, after I had my […]

High Maintenance

When most people get to take the weekend off, David still continues to work. Granted, he’s a workaholic, and it probably wouldn’t matter where he worked, he would still work the weekends … somewhere. But, what he does now — which is dispatching for 10+ trucks, he also has to help with maintenance […]
