Still Hate Your Job??
So….can anyone look at this and still think they have the worst job?? I didn’t think so.
Outdoor School.
First off, thanks for your well wishes for my burn. TMI, but it’s scabbing over..not real pretty. And I am absolutely not doing hot wax again! My parents left WY yesterday, so they should be here tomorrow. My dd has outdoor school next week and the school asked for parent volunteers to be chaperons for the kids. I didn’t think it would be good...
Why, Yes, I am Stupid.
I have been so busy the last few days! Phone calls to make (various people, various places), house to clean (my parents are coming for a visit this week), kids to take care of, pets to take care of, lots of baking to do. We harvested our pumpkins and I’ve made pies, breads and muffins. And more to go! I was so pleased with...
Childhood Memories, Part 2.
Remembering all the stuff we did as kids that was questionable or crazy, I realized I had to add a “part 2.” So if you weren’t totally bored yesterday, I hope you enjoy this. A common practice growing up was to “pants” each other. You know, go up to someone and just yank down on their pants (when they had an elastic band obviously)....
Childhood Memories.
I’ve been reading some pretty funny stuff from my friends on my blogroll (shameless?) so I thought I’d share some things I did as a kid. I’m the youngest of 5 and we grew up in a very big house. The front foyer was totally open, so it was 2 stories. In that room was a staircase that split off to 2 sides of...
Seriously Funny.
When I do Entrecard and go to blogs, yes, I do always read. I try to comment as much as possible…I guess I just enjoy sharing my opinion with total strangers 😀 So this morning when I was dropping I found something truly hysterical. I’ve been to this one blog before…Blue Monkey Butt… and what first caught my attention was the name. It was...
A Conference Talk.
During LDS church General Conference yesterday, one of the men who spoke said something I really liked. As a kid, he came home from from a football game; his team lost and he was upset. He told his mom, looking for sympathy, and she told him, “Come what may, and love it.” Over the years he’s come to understand that statement. It doesn’t mean...
Server Crashed!
Our server crashed…it had the blogs on it (mine and my husband’s). Nice, huh?? So there was some stuff that got permanantly wiped off, even though dh had it on backup. One of those things was comments. So if you notice your comment isn’t where it should be, I apologize. I really appreciate and value what you have to say and I’m disappointed some...
Cozy Pajamas and Thick Quilts.
A finally gave in and pulled the quilts out of the closet. I love the quilt season, just hate the snow that inevitably follows autumn. Our leaves are turning colors nicely and the air is beginning to have that crispness to it. We put some of our pumpkins on the front porch and our neighbor came by today with some corn stalks complete the...
For or Against Co-Sleeping?
When I was a teenager, I had a few of those, “When I have kids, I’ll never…” You know how that goes. Spank, make a kid sit at the table until they’re done with their dinner, make them do chores, say things like, “Because I’m the mom!”, and co-sleep. Well, I’ve stuck by the dinner one at least. I’ve blown the other ones. Even...
