• My Silent Weekend

  This may be a bit difficult for me to get through. Since Friday I have been dealing with some pain. At first it was shoulder pain and what I believed to be a crick in the neck type pain. However Saturday and Sunday things began to change in little ways. Dealing with allergies for a…

• A Beautiful Sunday

  There’s so much to process still. My day began a little after 7 am when I had to assist Mom with Dad’s birthday cake. I still had another alarm that didn’t have time to go off because Mom decided to wake me up instead. Church wasn’t supposed to start until after 10 am so I…

• Projects Galore

  You have seen little glimpses of my projects this week. Honestly I don’t think I have gotten enough sleep or spent much time dilly dallying from these 3 tasks. I hadn’t had much extra time to work on the kitchen much since Monday. It would have been nice to get it done for Sunday at…

• Refreshing Exercise

  The last time I walked for fun or for exercise was on our trip already a month ago. Then I was hit with moving the kitchen and allergies possibly because of moving and cleaning the kitchen.

• May Twelfth

  Since I was born we were taught that this is a day for our Mothers. It’s a wonderful day to spend time with and give the women in our lives gifts and attention. In my household though it’s a double whammy with the special days. The day that’s meant to honor my Mom and Grandmas…

• The Past 24 Hours

  Bryan and I have had this unspoken competition. Who is under the most stress? Usually he says I am. Only because he knows more about my days because I admittedly talk about my day’s activities more. I woke up to a text saying in no uncertain terms that he had overdone it and needed to…

• What is your career plan? Writing Prompt

  I am actually amazed it didn’t say I already answered this prompt. Gosh my career plan! Anytime I make a plan I can loudly hear God laugh at me cause they are altered by his many various forces. Whatever plan I may have had with the exception of Walmart fell through. Being a cashier was…

• Summer Plans

  This summer will be a little different for me. I am looking forward to the warm weather and my niece will be out of school. Something else will be filling my time though, family and kids. I will be getting to watch some little cousins for my cousins. It will be fun and a change…

• How Did I Get Here?

  Do you ask yourself this question ever or once in a while? Sometimes I get to a point where I look at my age or the holes in my family or just what I feel I am lacking in my life at this exact moment. Life changes, but it seems the speed only increases as…
