Miracles Happen

I realize I have gone kind of AWOL, and I do apologize for that. I have a lot of average, everyday exciting posts coming up (including a review of having 2.5 days off)…they’re on my To Do list. Along with about 42 other things, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the [...]

Talk About Tuesday

I’ve got an exciting next couple of days coming up!
My mom and dad are taking both the kids to their house for tomorrow, Thursday and through mid-afternoon Friday. And Dave is not taking off work, which means that during the day, I’ll be all by my lonsesome. I’m not sure how I’ll survive.
Oh [...]

Um, help?

Alright, Inter-folks. I need help.
Do you have a morning routine for your kids? What is it? How many kids do you have? How old are they? What time do you need to be out the door? Does the routine help? Or do you still feel like you [...]

Smart Habit Saturday

The show is finally over, and this is my first full week of being back to a “normal” schedule.
And I did great! I finished almost everything on my cleaning schedule. The only things I didn’t get done were non-essential cleaning stuff, like sweeping the front porch or wiping out the door shelves in [...]

Fitness Challenge Roundup

Today was the last day of the 10-week fitness challenge hosted by Beth at Mom To 2 Vikings. I had originally committed myself to 120 hours a week for a total of 1200 hours of workout time, but before the challenge ever started, I upped my pledge to 140 hours a week for a [...]

Another one gone

I’m not ready for this whole tooth-losing business.
Especially if it happens 2 or 3 teeth at a time.
When this week started, Jacob losing his teeth was the furthest thing from my mind. Then, he lost one on Tuesday. And yesterday, he lost another one.  So now, his two bottom front teeth are gone.
I’m [...]

Spring Reading Thing

Today is the first day of The Spring Reading Thing being hosted by Katrina at Callapidder Days. I feel like my reading time is dwindling, so I’m not sure how many of these books I’ll actually get through, but I hope I can finish (or at least start) all of them.
I’ve already started 90 [...]

Thursday Thirteen - 80s revisited, pt. 2
