Time for Me Thursday

Katie 4:26 PM 0 Comments

Holy wow, bloggers! Not only is it Thursday, but it's also New Year's Eve! Can you believe that? I can't. All day long I've had to remind myself of the date because it just doesn't seem possible that today is the last day of 2009. I've put absolutely no thought into 2010 and if you know me, you won't believe that either....

All opinions are 100% mine.Back when I was pregnant with the boys (ages and ages ago!), I remember hearing that there were certain foods that you shouldn't eat because they could actually harm the baby. Seafood was pretty high on that list because of...

(almost) Wordless Wednesday

Katie 3:52 PM 1 Comments

Whew! And we made it! It's Wednesday...for real! Today has been another stressful day, but slowly things are coming together, I hope. I've been taking small breaks to do some reading, which is helping me keep it together. Thank goodness I know that the world really isn't out to get me or I'd hide under these blankets and...

Menu Plan Monday

Ugh! That is my word for today. I swear I intended on writing here on Thursday and Friday but technology became my enemy and wouldn't let me. My internet connection went down and it didn't get fixed until yesterday because of the holiday! Then, it took us well over an hour to re-set up the modem/router (yes, for some...

Tackle It Tuesday

Katie 5:42 PM 0 Comments

Ugh, where did today go? Actually, I know right where it went. It went with trying to prevent my children from killing one another. Usually they get along really well, but I can always tell when one or both did not get enough sleep the night before and that was the pair of them today. They were driving me nuts! I love...

Whew...another busy day almost done. I was up early this morning to drive to Lansing. I had to be at the Salvation Army distribution center at 9am. I got there around 9:40 and was lucky to find a parking spot. It was packed. People started lining up outside the door around 9:45. I got in line about 7 minutes to and ended...

Tackle It Tuesday

Katie 9:29 PM 0 Comments

It's Tuesday and boy has it been a long one! I was up at 6am this morning to meet up with Peter to take Ben into the doctor. I did make it to their place by 7:15 and Peter rushed us right out the door. The roads were kinda slick this morning and so was their parking lot! I slipped about 4 feet out their door and Ben laughed...

Menu Plan Monday

Ok, I know that's the Fall image, but I have a totally good reason for that. Right now, this poor laptop looks as if it should be in an intensive care unit. It has wires and drives sticking out of every port imaginable. What am I doing to the poor thing you ask? Well, I'm re-organizing my external hard drives and transferring...

Time for me Thursday

Katie 2:07 PM 0 Comments

Look...it's a post! and it's on time! It's Thursday and I've been pondering what to do for me today because it really is super important that as women and caretakers, we take good care of ourselves first. If we take care of ourselves, we have more to give those in our lives. So, what am I doing today for me?I'm going...

Ok, I know it's Thursday, but I just finished what I needed to finish to do my Wednesday post. Over at Sunday Shutterbugs, the theme for this week is Heart. Now, this is a great theme. It's one that you can interpret in so many different ways. I'm taking something that someone special said to me the other day and using...

My So Called Crazy Life

Katie 11:57 AM 1 Comments

I so meant to write here on Monday and yesterday, but life got a hold of me and didn't let go. Over the weekend, the boys and I went over to my Grandmother's so that we could visit and while there, on Sunday, both of the boys threw up. That meant that we stayed over until Monday and by the time we got back, got their things...
