Menu Plan Monday

Wow, here it is. The last week before school starts. That also means that it's the last week that I have the boys with me (except for every other weekend) until Christmas. I'm so not ready for this.Of course, I also wasn't ready to take one of the babies to the vets this morning either, but that's what had to be done....

Finish It Friday

11:37 AM 1 Comments
It's Friday again! This summer has flown by way too fast. Next week will be the boy's last week here until they're off on Christmas holidays. It's going to be so weird not waking up every morning and hearing their voices. I much prefer when I have them during the week and their dad has them every other weekend. School...

Time for Me Thursday

5:09 PM 0 Comments
Today's weather inspires naps. I swear it does. I woke up full of energy and ready to go but the more overcast it's become, the stronger the urge to curl up under a handmade blanket and nap has become. Since it's nearly dinner time, I can't indulge in that desire. Instead, I'm going to indulge in some comfort food. When...

(almost) Wordless Wednesday

Wednesday again! One of these days I really ought to come up with some brilliant tips for Works for Me Wednesday but to be honest, I'm just too plum tired to do a lot of thinking today. Plus, I have a really awesome picture to share with you all! It's one I took hmm...a couple of weeks ago and I'm thrilled with how it...

A Week's Worth of Posts

Well, after the bat drama of Wednesday night, I couldn't escape the house fast enough on Thursday to run those errands. Ok, plus I totally procrastinated coming back to the house as well. The boys had dentist appointments at 2pm and with everything from the night before, we slept in. What does that mean? No lunch before...

Where I've Been

Ugh! Life got me! Actually, I think it was more like Mother Nature. Last Wednesday night, I'm innocently laying in bed when I hear this noise..and it keeps getting louder. Just as I decide I'm going to have to go figure out what it is, my cat runs into my bedroom with a bat..yes, a bat..hanging out of its mouth! Ugh! Ugh!...

The weekend flew by way too fast. We had a nice one though. This past weekend was the Farmer's Picnic here in Sunfield. What I didn't realize is that this is actually the village festival each summer. The boys and I missed a lot of it just because we didn't know, but we did get to check out the parade (it runs a block...

Finish It Friday - Box Sorting

11:46 AM 2 Comments
Woo! It's Friday and tomorrow is the weekend! Ok, not that it makes much difference in our household. Our weekends look a heck of a lot like our weekdays. That's ok though, we're all happy and healthy. Money is strangling us, but we're not giving in. We're fighters around here.Speaking of fighters, it looks like Roger...

My Creative Space

As all of you probably know, we moved into our new home about 2 months ago. We are still buried in boxes, but I am so happy to say that we've actually made a dent in "The Wall" (the boys named it that because our front room was nothing more than a wall of boxes). We still have a long ways to go until it's finished, but...

Time for Me Thursday - Sanctuary

2:42 PM 1 Comments
Thursday is here! Where is this summer running off to and why is it in such a hurry? Today's Time for Me Thursday is all about creating a sanctuary for yourself. As a mom and as someone who seems to be under constant high stress lately, I quickly realized that I needed a quiet place where I could just go and relax, someplace...

(Almost) Worldless Wednesday - Rainbow

1:59 PM 0 Comments
On Sunday our area got hit by a series of really big storms. Just as one ended (and before the next began) the boys and I were driving home from Hastings. As we were driving, Roger said that he saw a rainbow out his window. I couldn't see it but a couple of minutes later, I looked up at the sky and saw one right in front...

Happy Tuesday to all of you out in blogland and katieland and just to everyone! I have no idea why but I seem to be in a good mood today. I'm tired as all get out and have tons to do and stresses galore, but I seem smiley anyway. Well, good. *grins*So, this week's tackle it is a bit different for our family. We were given...

It's Monday and I am happy to report that we all survived the storms that hit over the past few days. The only thing to take damage, as far as I know, was a cardboard box I had sitting on the front porch. Luckily, it was empty and just waiting to go out to the garage. In fact, on the drive back from picking up the boys,...

WoW! (no, not World of Warcraft but an expression of shock..hehe) I cannot believe that it's Friday already. This week has totally flown by and today we've already been super productive. I have a load of laundry going, the dishwasher going, two loaves of bread rising on the counter top and we're waiting for my sister to...

Time for Me Thursday - A Good Book

1:29 PM 2 Comments
Has anyone else noticed that this summer has seemed to just fly by? I feel like I just moved a couple of weeks ago and suddenly I realized that it's been two months! I ought to be frustrated that this house isn't in tip top totally unpacked shape by now, but I'm not. I've had a fun summer enjoying time with my boys, working...

Touch Base Tuesday is just a place for me to talk about whatever is on my mind, to catch folks up with what's happening in my life and all of that.So, what's happening? Umm..now that I think about it, not a whole lot. The...
