A couple of weeks ago, I went to pull a towel out of the bathroom cabinet under the sink. Normally, that’s not something I’d really write about, except THIS TIME. THIS TIME a mouse took the liberty of using my cabinet space for it’s own…needs. So, after much cleaning up and washing of things, I [...]
Here are a few things on our Amazon wish list for Preschool Learning. The books change often as it’s my goal to introduce 1-2 new carefully chosen books per week (we’re trying a new program that I’ll talk about later in regards to homeschooling)… (be sure to click the pictures)
$40.84 - It’s the Hooked On [...]
I need to clear the clutter - in my home, my brain, and my schedule.
My personality is one that likes to do many things and likes to be helpful - but the downside is that sometimes I fill my schedule with meaningless but busy things and sometimes I just clutter my life without really doing [...]
A few things that make me (temporarily) happy:
fuzzy/super soft socks - I also have two blankets made out of this type of material and they are my FAVORITES. They are what I run to when I feel my worst (or cold).
fat cute floral bird clips - they’re in the floral arrangement area at Michaels and [...]
There’s one thing we all have in common, it seems - despite our nationality or backgrounds, despite our religious or political affiliations and despite the amount of money in our pocket: Happiness, or the pursuit of it. We all want it. Very few of us are where we want to be.
As teenagers, most of us [...]
Potluck Survival Guide by Cherie KimmonsPrice: $18.96, regularly $24.95Put out by: Five Star Publications
At first glance, this book would normally never appeal to me - it’s subtitle reads: “The Care & Feeding of the Athletic Supporter.” As much as I look forward to my daughters being immersed in ballet and soccer and whatever else, the [...]
Stockings were needed, so I made these…from Goodwill sweaters. I wish a couple of these had been in my size AND in good shape, because I would’ve probably worn them, but they’ll make good stockings.
A wreath for Lorelei from leftover sweater pieces.
Our tree. It’s three feet tall and our decorations here are wee-little oranges. We’ve [...]
There are, perhaps, two people in my life that I would consider my “best friends” at this point in time.
However, I may or may not mean to them what they mean to me in the same capacity. And, I’m okay with that.
These are people that I could call in the middle of the night to [...]
I tend to find things when I’m MOST not looking for them… anyhow, I think I like this
It’s an electric and cordless kettle. Technically, I couldn’t care less if it had a cord or not but I guess it could be handy if the power went out but the fact that it’s electric and in [...]
A couple of weeks ago, I got these…
Technically, I’m supposed to always wear them but I don’t really love WEARING glasses (or my face with them), but I wear them occasionally just to be able to read signs in the distance. Okay, I wear them more than occasionally.
And, here is the wreath I made (with [...]
