Yuck All Around

Well we’re all still sick with colds or some sort of nasty crud. I thought mine was just sinus related but now the girls have it. Great, huh?
Billy’s working long hours this week until Thursday then he’ll be off for four days. We are going to try deep frying a turkey this year. I hope [...]

Hippies & Other Nonsense

Billy and I watched this documentary the other day about Farmer John. He’s a guy who inherited his daddy’s farm and then lost a lot of the land and years later turned what was left of it into a CSA and started organic farming. It was really interesting. I think it was called The Real [...]

Quick Update

I have no time anymore. So tired. I update my Facebook status but this takes too long.
I don’t really have much to say. I’m just tired.
Today was fun though. I went out with my friend Dani and we just chatted up a storm. Went to Panera Bread and ate and talked and I enjoyed the [...]

Up Way Too Early

It’s after 3 a.m. and I’m wide awake. I got up with Audrey. She was sleeping on my chest and I had to pee. I put her in the cradle and she screams bloody murder and then I’m wide awake. Thought I’d just bring her in the living room to nurse her in the comfy [...]

A Beautiful Day

The sun is shining. The birds are singing. I’m glad to have turned the clocks back so now it’s not so dark in the morning. I’m trying hard to get the hang of this two kids and a newborn thing. I tell myself over and over “I am patient, I am kind, I am a [...]

Waiting. . .

Feeling pretty good today while I just wait around hoping to go into labor before Monday when I’m scheduled to be induced. The girls slept over at the in-laws’ last night and we went out to dinner at our favorite Japanese steakhouse. Hadn’t been there since last March. It wasn’t too comfortable sitting in the [...]

No Energy to Blog

I’m up again at 4:30 a.m. and thought I’d jot down some of my recent thoughts since I’ve been such a blog slacker lately.
Cate and I are watching Finding Nemo for the gazillionth time. I do love this movie but I’m tired. I woke approximately four hours after going to bed to the sound of [...]

Dilemmas

It’s not yet 7 a.m. and I’m showered, hair done (well, as much as I “do” hair), make-up on, bathroom cleaned, dishwasher emptied, thank you notes written. Whew! That’s crazy, huh? I was up around 5 a.m. I guess. Oh, I think I hear Cate. . . hang on.
That kid is so funny. She wakes [...]

And the Weather Isn’t Helping

I feel so sad and I can’t shake it. It takes all my effort to just do the things I have to do. I forced myself just now to get up and make the beds. Piles of laundry stare me down in my room and leave me feeling overwhelmed. My head hurts and it’s another [...]

Only 21 Days Till We Have Three

I used to blog daily and sometimes multiple times a day but now I rarely do. I just suck at it. I guess Facebook fulfills my need for instant gratification when I can update my status with a simple sentence and get near instantaneous feedback.
Today was a good day. Billy was off finally. [...]
