I did pretty good on my eating plan while we were out of town. It’s a little easier for me on my “break phase” to eat when I’m not home so it wasn’t bad. We went out to a country style restaurant and I DID eat mashed potatoes and cake and loved every second. I [...]
I was looking through my journal and found some really funny things James has said. I thought I’d post them for you just because. These are from awhile ago but they still crack me up. James said, “Mom don’t you wish you were a cat? You could lay around and take naps whenever you wanted [...]
Do you have any blessings to share? I do! We get to sneak away for one night this weekend. I can’t remember the last time we all 3 went somewhere together. It’s just a little tiny trip and for a very short time but it’s such a huge thing that we have the freedom [...]
I don’t really keep up with celebrities, but I saw this and thought it was interesting. Celebrities who knit My awesome blog designer (and spam slayer) Revka offers free MP3′s of her piano music on her blog. She sent me a CD before–very pretty. I shared a couple of my piano pieces too! This is [...]
I found this Bible study at a wonderful women’s Sunday School class at my brother’s church. I have to confess that I haven’t finished it even though I started it last summer. It IS really good. I just get sidetracked. This study is based on the book of Job. The author talks about living [...]
In the past when I made crafty stuff, I gave most of it away. I don’t know if I sprouted a selfish gene or what, but I keep most of my knitting! I found a purse on Etsy with a similar pattern and she said she made it up. She was also charging big bucks [...]
I’m still working. This week I’ve been rather discouraged. Nothing is going anywhere–the scale or the measurements. However, I’ve been at this long enough to KNOW that even though I FEEL discouraged, it’s just a temporary situation. I know that if I keep working out and eating right the scale will go down. Of [...]
What has God done in your life lately? I am so blessed that we made it. That is relatively speaking you know. Today at church, Pastor shook Lee’s hand and said, “So are you a free man?” We both smiled and I thought about it. It’s so different. I’m not really sure I can even [...]
A friend shared this on her Facebook page. I love it! Classmates acknowledge a special couple Cute idea to use a vintage book to cover an expanding file An easy way to “pretty up” regular pens Easy container gardens Doormat wall art–very neat
Over the past few weeks, we’ve had some reminders that we have not lived together for a long time! I found a grill for Lee that I wanted to get for Father’s Day. I distinctly said to James, “Dad doesn’t care what type of grill.” So, we decided on a gas grill. Lee adamantly let [...]
