When Will I Learn????

Hopefully this will be the last time I will have to learn this particular lesson. And what is that lesson? Back up your work EVERYTIME you write. My computer died yesterday. It came up with an error message, yet there is hope. Though costly hope. $200 for data recovery and I did a ton of…

I Should Have…

Have you ever done something you know you shouldn’t have? When a part of you is urging you to stop, but you can’t so you continue on… Tonight was one of those nights. When I should have been writing, I decided to check my bloglines. And after seeing close to 1000 posts unread, I decided…

There’s No Place Like Home

We’re back home… We’re back to the routine (or trying to figure out a new summer routine after the kids spent endless hours playing PS2 all day long.) We’re back to a messy house (we left in a rush, unfolded clothes, dishes on the counter, toys on the floor) after spending two days at my…

I couldn’t comprehend them having nothing to do at night. My husband and…

Breaking Up Ain’t Hard to Do

Okay, why is it that I’m not at all shocked any more when I hear of yet another well respected Godly couple calling it quits or separating? Last time it was good friends of ours. The husband left his wife and two kids without any warning. He just didn’t want to be married any more.…

Absent Minded Mom Award

If there was such an award, I’d be a winner. I had told my daughter we were going to a friend’s birthday party yesterday. I had a reminder on the refrigerator. I even spoke to the mother of the girl last week and said we would be there. We chatted a bit how there was…

Header Change, Weather Change

The weather went from 85 degrees on Monday and Tuesday to 30’s. It even snowed one day last week. But the average temperature has been in the 50s and 60s, that’s why I changed my header. Chris has played two baseball games this week in the cold rain, it even hailed for a while last…
