A few days ago, Lorelei decided that the carpet in her bedroom was way too itchy…
So, she climbed into her armoir and proceeded to dump half a bottle of topical Benadryl gel onto the carpet. And, apparently that didn’t completely resolve the issue, so she continued to rub it deep into the carpet - and [...]
Pride.
Sometimes, it’s obvious. It can be so IN YOUR FACE that you can’t even miss it…
But, sometimes… it’s not.
Sometimes, it’s hidden and it takes someone to point it out before you even realize…
I’ll admit it. My feelings have been hurt pretty easily. And, it’s something I’m working on, but I’ve not completely perfected this one [...]
I am so in love with my life right now.
I never cease to be amazed at the workings of God in my life, especially when I can see Him in the tiniest of details.
Then today, I realized exactly how well He knows me…
better than I know myself.
Example: My new job. Combine pregnant women, designing, counseling, [...]
For Today Tuesday, June 23, 2009
Outside my window…it’s starting to get dark and is still muggy feeling outside…
I am thinking…about how nice it was to go into my office today. But, how nice it will be to lay out in the pool tomorrow…

Over at TipJunkie, there’s a fabulous birthday party going on (on Monday!)
Are you going to be there?
I SO am.
Birthday festivities, prizes, and tons of FUN.
Despite the excitement I felt while pregnant with Aurora, the truth is that I rarely had the energy to pick up the high-energy dvd workouts I’d accumulated once I saw the first pregnancy test. Somehow, it seems like chasing a toddler around the house and cleaning up after both inside pets and said toddler [...]
It’s taken me about 20 years, but I’ve learned something about relationships and friendships in life:
You can’t depend on other’s to make you happy. You have to learn to be happy with just you, first - otherwise, it’ll never work.
But, that’s where I have trouble. I open my heart and I love people with all [...]
Right now, I’m reading a book about food. I know! My exciting life! –No, but really…this book is all kinds of awesome. It’s educating and eye-opening and is really causing us to take a closer look at what we are putting in our bodies. And, we’re ready to make some changes.
Meat - We had both [...]
I remember very clearly the first time I felt self-conscious about our income. Our lives had just taken another twist, turn, and dip despite our careful planning and had left us with a small food budget, $50 per 2 weeks. And, by food budget, I mean ALL FOOD. It included any eating out (which was [...]
