I haven't read the Garfield cartoon in a long time. My children, however, read it frequently. This morning was complete and utter mayhem, to the point that the kiddos and I were somewhat hysterical on our way to school. They both started quoting Garfield to me: Maddie: "You know it's a Monday when you're attacked … Continue reading A Garfield Monday…

Friday Philosophy…Discombobulated
That's me today. I am disconcerted and confused. It's really unfortunate, because our morning was meant to be relaxing. Instead, it has been a bit of a comedy of errors. I regained my humor (finally) when I dropped the car keys while getting into the car in the garage and then couldn't find them for … Continue reading Friday Philosophy…Discombobulated
I Was Cool! For Just a Minute…
If I had blinked, I would have missed it. 🙂 My daughter read my book. She finished it and gave me very high praise indeed: "This is SOOOOO cool, Mom! You're cool!" See? I was cool. Right up until tonight. My little guy loves to dance with me. Tonight, he asked me to teach him … Continue reading I Was Cool! For Just a Minute…
Groundhog Day, Superbowl Sunday, and My Book on Kindle!!!
I'm on tenterhooks here. My Broncos are playing the Seahawks this afternoon. I have so many people who are near and dear to me who live in Seattle these days, I'll probably have to absent myself from social media for the duration of the game. 🙂 It may be Superbowl Sunday, but I am jumping … Continue reading Groundhog Day, Superbowl Sunday, and My Book on Kindle!!!
Another Shout-Out to My Daughter.
Here's my Dad again. It's always nice to make my parents proud! 🙂
It’s Thankful Thursday!
I have always loved Thursdays. All of the anticipation of the weekend is still ahead, there's only one day left to go in the week. Thursday is just lovely all around. We snuck a date in tonight, just to make it perfect. 🙂 Today, this week, I am especially thankful for amazing news I have … Continue reading It’s Thankful Thursday!
Friday Philosophy…Organizing!
It has been yet another hectic week, and I am nestling into the weekend and Friday evening by organizing and rearranging. I know this doesn't sound very "weekend" to most of you, but I find it comforting. I had redone our office about a month ago, and then Pinterest made over some of our closet … Continue reading Friday Philosophy…Organizing!
Thursday…Ole!
A quiet night, after what felt like an extra long day. Fatigue is weighing on me like a ton of bricks. On a bright note, I've mentioned that Moses did his own version of NaNoWriMo with me. What I did not realize was that Maddie had undertaken her own writing project. Tonight, while I cooked … Continue reading Thursday…Ole!
Wednesday…Earning Its Rep!
My Maddie had an injury, that was reinjured yesterday. It was nothing. Until yesterday. But my girl is SUCH a tough cookie, with a pretty darn high pain threshold...she was telling me "No, thanks" to my offers of an all-expense paid trip to the emergency room. We iced her ankle, we elevated her ankle, she … Continue reading Wednesday…Earning Its Rep!
Of Dinosaurs and Gunfire…
Believe it or not, those two things are related. 🙂 When I miss out on sleep, I get punchy and a bit crazy. Crazy funny, not dangerous. Just so you know. So, this morning, my eyes flew open just past 2:00 am, from a horrible horrible horrible nightmare. I was so absolutely terrified, that I … Continue reading Of Dinosaurs and Gunfire…
