1 Year

Monday, April 16th, 2012

Recently, I shared that it’s been 1 year since Lee moved home. Lee said, “Only 1 year?” James said, “That’s all?” We feel a little like we’re in a time warp around here. It feels longer than a year to me too. Things are way better right now. Lee’s job is providing enough for us [...]

Back To Work

Thursday, April 12th, 2012

Lee was home for almost a week. I like it when he’s home and hate it when he leaves. We talked about finding a trucking job where he can be home more but he said for now this is fine. It’s helping us get our finances back together and is actually a nice job. He [...]

One Year Ago Today

We’re Baaack…..

Wednesday, March 7th, 2012

We had a nice time away. I could have used one more day! We mostly relaxed and splashed in the pools and James and Lee rode the CRAZY water slides. I do not have a single adventurous bone in my body and with my neck issues and fear of water? Right…the wave pool and hot [...]

Driving Past

Tuesday, February 21st, 2012

Today, I drove on the highway. The road took me right past the prison where Lee spent quite awhile. When Lee was there, driving past hurt. I felt my heart pulling toward the prison. Inside I’d say, “Hi Babe” and sometimes I’d even blow him a kiss. Today, driving past didn’t hurt. It didn’t even [...]

In General

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

I can tell that in general my life is better. I am going to bed earlier and sleeping well. I still don’t wake up totally rested but oh well…. I’ve been making lots more homemade food–things like cream soups to freeze, or other things to put in the freezer. I can think about spending time [...]

Night Time Chats~Repost from January 2007

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012

Each night, at bed time, we cuddle in bed. We say our prayers. His latest AWANA jewel required him to pray for a teacher, a friend, and a missionary. This was good. I had tried before to show him how to pray for others but it wasn’t quite clicking. Thanks to the AWANA project, he [...]

This Touched Me

Saturday, January 14th, 2012

If you’ve peeked at my Pinterest boards you may have seen that I happen to really like a certain football team….   Several weeks ago, before the game, I saw this clip on the pre-game show. Even if you don’t love football, please watch it for me–it’s back story for the rest of the post. [...]
