What's new over here you ask? What? You didn't. Whatever. I get it. You googled "incredibly cool Mommy/life/humor/extremely insightful personal opinion blog" and this is what came up. My sincere apologies.

It's been a weird week. I had this weird stomach flu thing that started on Tuesday, eased off Tuesday evening, and then came back with force Tuesday night and all day Wednesday. Life is great sometimes. I keep thinking I should put in for sick days, but every time that I get around to looking for that employee handbook that outlines my benefits and how to put in for them I just can't find it.

Maybe if this place wasn't such a mess these days. I have plans to get some spring cleaning done. I'd actually like to purge and clean this whole place before the end of April, have a garage sale at the beginning of May, and then haul whatever is left to MCC.

Steven thinks he wants to clean out the garage and then coat the floor in some cement floor coating stuff for garages. Pretty ambitious for a guy who can't put his own socks in the laundry basket.

Good thing he doesn't read this blog.

Steven's in school right now. I should have posted a before and after pictures of him. He looks a whole lot smarter now ;)

I had this whole train of thought thing going, and then I made a phone call, and now an hour and a half later I realized that I have this post started, but I've lost my momentum.

Happy Friday!

That's hilarious. I actually googled "incredibly cool Mommy/life/humor/extremely insightful personal opinion blog" and your blog link was first on the list.

Way cool...

MIA

No, my secret alias is not Mia. MIA = missing in action. I have been avoiding posting on here. Why? Because I don't have a ton of stuff to write about. Also, I've discovered that my blog is being followed by a couple of people I'm not related to. Although I'm super excited about it, I'm also a little intimidated! Sounds silly, I know. Hear me out. You know how you can be a teenager (I'm not a teenager, we're just being hypothetical) and have big thick coke bottle glasses, zits all over your face, big baggy pants and a baggy sweatshirt hiding the rolls hidden underneath and a perm that went very very wrong and is now only curly on ONE SIDE and your mom still tells you you're beautiful and she'd love to trade faces with you? You know how that feels? You don't have to question it too much, because she's your mom and you know she's probably a little biased. Blogging is a little like that. Until now, only my friends have read my blog. I coul...

christmas time's a coming

Only 23 days until Christmas! Remember when we were kids, and Christmas was all about time off school, lots of treats (chocolate, candy canes, oranges, turtles!), new Christmas dresses for the church concert, lights, music, decorations, noisy and exciting gatherings at Grandma's house, Christmas episodes of our favorite tv shows and of course presents! The list goes on and on. I still find Christmas exciting. Yet, now the season holds more than just the "fun" stuff. Now we have to worry about scheduling in all the different families and parents, buying gifts we can't necessarily afford, making dishes to bring to the different gatherings, hoping that people will understand that we need to share the holidays with many others, and hoping that nobody will be hurt if our time with them is short. I wonder if I'm doing a good job of making the holidays fun and enjoyable for my kids, and if I've bought the right gifts. I worry about what five days in a row of late ni...

the snowsuit

I really must go back and tell you about . . . duhn duhn duh . . . the snowsuit . I've most certainly kept you in suspense far too long. Remember last winter when there was no snow, but it was still cold enough to freeze puddles and require kids to wear winter clothing? Good, we're caught up. Jordan is really hard on outerwear. Last year she destroyed a pair of skates, lost various mitts and tuques, shredded her first pair of winter boots and left her snowsuit looking like swiss cheese. The boots and snowsuit were done before Christmas. I made her wear the snowsuit for the rest of winter anyway and the boots I replaced after Christmas. It's amazing that a six year old child can ruin a rather expensive snowsuit in a few short months. I blame mother nature. Mother nature thought it would be funny to make it cold and icy out without actually giving us snow. Of course children want to run and drop to their knees or tummy on frozen puddles and slide to the other side. Of ...
