I wake up in my bed between Emma and Cate. They are so close in size now that I cannot always tell them apart. I know I woke up at 3 a.m. to pee (TMI?) and no one was in our bed but Billy and me. Then two hours later I feel them beside me [...]

Can’t Sleep
Posted in Ranting madness on July 28, 2009 | 6 Comments »
Yesterday started out to be a good day but ended up a bad day. I feel like I’m on an emotional roller coaster. I feel uncomfortable already and I’ll be 29 weeks on Wednesday. Billy makes me mad sometimes. His selfish, passive-aggressive type comments irk me.
I am always the first person up at our house. [...]
Projects to Keep Busy
Posted in Good Times, Works for Me, new ideas on July 27, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I’ve been busy! Billy’s dad gave me his mom’s old sewing machine. It’s nice. It folds down into a solid wood desk and it’s at least 20 years old (so no computerized monogramming capabilities sadly) but I love it. I found a bed in a bag set at an outlet for $10 and took the [...]

Me (6 months pregnant now!) & the girls last Friday
Yesterday was a rough day. I ventured out to story time at the library which I’ve been enjoying with the girls but found out it was the last one for the session and the next session doesn’t start till mid-September. I had met a few really [...]
Well, Knock Me Over w/ a Feather!

Last night, just as I returned from driving to a nearby country store for butter so I could make a cake from scratch, the MIL called me! Guess what she wanted. Guess! To take the girls off my hands for a few hours so I could “rest” or do whatever. Wow! I was stunned. Hell [...]
Another Week Begins
Posted in Uncategorized on July 12, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I watch the sunrise above my crooked mailbox. I watched my husband drive off to work in the big white truck. I see a happy cat enjoying the last few minutes of peace before children wake up and make things noisy. I hear Cate talking to herself in bed before she’s ready to leave her [...]
Rough Night
Posted in Uncategorized on July 11, 2009 | 5 Comments »
Emma’s sick and Cate was up at 3 a.m. and is now sleeping in my bed. I’m so tired. I feel like someone has been beating on me.
It looks like another gray overcast day and I have no plans other than to relax and read this book I started the other day called The Pretend [...]
Full Moon?

The sky was so bright tonight. That combined with Billy’s obnoxious snoring and my need to make my bladder gladder woke me from sweet slumber at just after 3 a.m. Ugh. I yelled at him for snoring but he denied it. Yeah, because I’m deaf. Sometimes I wish he’d just go sleep in Cate’s bed [...]

Emma all dolled up in patriotic colors
We had a great 4th of July. I invited some people over for a little party and I thought it went very well. It was small and the food was yummy. Everyone brought something which made it fairly easy.
Billy was a big help. Over the last three days he [...]
