Are You Laughing At The Point I’m Trying To Make?

Scott headed out for Arkansas earlier this week, and one thing I’m sure of, I am SO thankful for that man.  I honestly do not know how single moms do it! 
Tuesday night I was dealing with Dwight and boy, does he know how to push my buttons sometimes!  We’ve had to keep the house [...]

Emotions Are Flying High!

and low.  This move feels like too much on some days. 
Scott just got off the phone with me.  He’s in Fayetteville right now and found a note in the door of our new house from the water company.  They are refusing to turn on the water until numbers are screwed into the stone on our [...]

Taking a Break

So the impending move is on.  We have 5 1/2 weeks left in Ohio and needless to say, I have been running around like a crazy woman trying to get our house “show-ready” and up for sale, as well as doing all the other crazy things required when moving to another state.  But it’s happening, [...]

Last night was filled with action, fear, and some serious sleep deprivation!
Scott and I were sitting on the couch just chilling and watching [...]

Meshing with friends

Scott told me I needed to get off Suzy’s site and blog more.  I suppose I have been distracted lately…
But anyway, let me get caught up here. 
Saturday night Scott treated me to a special night out.  (Extra points for Scott for continuing to spoil his wife!)  We called our babysitter, got dressed up (pretty quickly, [...]

I Survived The Earth Quake!

Friends of ours informed Scott and myself that we had an earthquake early this morning.  Actually, we were told that the tremors we felt here in Ohio were coming all the way from Illinois.   Maybe it’s just that we’re used to the train that goes by about a mile from our house.  Sometimes the train is loud [...]

Today is simply beautiful.

Did you know an iron deficiency can be a cause for depression?  So can lack of sunshine and warm weather! Top that off with 5 kids alternating colds and viruses and flu’s (and sharing them with you and hubby), and you’ve got a fun time going on!
I went to my OB appointment last Friday and they [...]

Planning The Sweet Escape…

I always wondered why families did it.  Why do moms take their sick kids out when they should be at home recovering?  Shouldn’t they let them recover in the comfort of their own home? 
Well, now I know.  Two months of near-constant sickness and now I get why sometimes you just have to push through it.  [...]
