It’s the time of year for split fingers! Ouch!! I try to be consistent about wearing gloves when doing dishes and such, but I still end up washing my hands a lot (hello, diapers!). So I’ve been slathering on some Cetiphyl that I found in the cellar hoping that it would help. I think I …

Random Saturday Post
I have decided to name the spider in the window Hector. Spoken with a bit of a uh… accent, Spanish or French take your pick. 😉 I figured since the creature will be there till Spring, I may as well get acquainted. Though don’t expect me to show any mercy when that plastic comes off …
Willy Nilly
This morning at breakfast the kids invented a character called “Tank” and kept asking me if Tank was a cartoon or pretend or something. I kept insisting that I did not know Tank, had never seen Tank and had no idea if Tank was a cartoon or a show or whatever. Weird! Then Myles said …

Today was the first day of school, bah-humbug! I’m still a little bitter that summer is over, but oh well! Apparently those of us who wan’t school to start AFTER Labor Day are in the minority. But homeschool takes care of that, ha! Anyway, if you want to read my thoughts on our first day …

I had probably 50% of this post “written” in my head, but alak now that I sit down at the computer it hath all deserted me. Oy! This mommy brain thing is getting REALLY bad this time around. I experienced brain fog with all of my pregnancies, and I think it compounds each time too. …

Have you noticed my new blog look? Ha ha! It’s not done. I have to figure out how to change a few things, but it’s functional anyway. The reason for the change is that somehow my blog got hacked. Some rude person introduced some code somewhere that injected ugly stuff whenever I tried to post …

While I was doing dishes this morning there was a moment, where each child was contentedly, though not necessarily quietly occupied on their own. Qade was busily doing school, Myles was driving his pick-up truck around in circles in the house and Ella was coloring a masterpiece on a Pooh coloring book page. When I …

Stu and I got to go to dinner last night without kids! It’s been awhile. We enjoyed it! I’m contemplating doing “balsamic chicken” for dinner tonight. Not sure if I really want to yet or not. I need to decide soon though because it’s a crock-pot meal. 😉 I’ve been sifting through the meat in …

I do believe that I’m succumbing to the cold that my germ laden children have brought into our house. My throat is on fire!! Probably my defenses against it were depleted by the 3-4 rather interrupted nights of sleep I got this week. Thanks, De Bella! 😉 Oh well, sipping on cold cold sweet tea …

The hummers have gone for good! Good luck, lil Hummers! I hope you have a nice winter in South America!! Kinda wish I could join them. My toes and nose are already not to thrilled with the cooler weather. Oh well. The Juncos have returned, so the Autumn bird swap has taken place. One of …
