In The Way of an Apology


I am so very blessed.  

I know this.

Every day it becomes more and more evident.

I have been so very blessed in the friends I have made through blogging.  Thank you for the emails, the phone calls and the letters sent by you.  I truly appreciate it.  I am excited to announce that I am back.

And that means not just updating, but visiting you, too!

Looking in my reader to see more than 1000 posts to read was daunting. 

Overwhelming.

Discouraging.

But today, I took control.  I marked every single one of them as read.  I am starting fresh.  

Tonight.

Soon, I will be by to visit you.  In the meantime, thank you for sticking by and not being a fair weather friend.  You all are wonderful and I just love you to pieces!  Thank you again.

Sometimes you just have to clean the slate so you can move ahead! I'm glad you did this!

Life is too complicated to be stressed out by blogging, sweet pea!

I am behind so I hope everything is okay....if not...I am going to feel horrible for not being a good bloggy friend. But no worries. Sometimes we just have to sit back and take a little break.

Yea! At the end of every week- usually Sunday afternoon, I mark all as read- because if I haven't gotten to it yet, I never will.

Heavenly Presents

I was getting a little worried. The baby had not changed in her weight or height for a month. Not since the 22 of October. My midwife was a little worried. She said if there wasn't a change soon, she would have to induce me. Did you know I wanted to go natural? Absolutely completely natural. I wanted to start on my own, and be completely under my own will power. Hearing that she would have to start me sent a cold fear through my body. Evidently, my baby possibly had something called IUGR ( intra uterine growth restriction) which could cause a myriad of problems, the worst being a still birth. A still birth is one of my biggest fears. So yesterday I went in to get checked, praying that my body had changed, that it had dilated on its own. If it had she wouldn't have to start me. At the appointment she gave me a choice. I could either have the baby yesterday, or I could have her on Monday. We decided to have her yesterday. So we decided my midwife would break my wate

May I Take Your Order, Please?

I know that young people must have jobs. They have to start somewhere, but really, there has got to be some sort of intelligence test or guidelines before hiring people. Really. We bought some crown molding a while ago. I thought we would have enough. Turns out, as we were getting ready to put it up, we found we are about 5 ln feet short. Just 5. How annoying is that? So, I called Lowes and ended up speaking with a young man (I am guessing hoping he was young). The conversation amazed me. Me: "Hi do you carry any Trim-Tex crown molding?" Lowes: "What's that?" "A brand of crown molding. We are a couple of feet short." "Is that like a brand of baseboard?" "Well, yeah, sort of. Crown molding is decorative wood strip that goes along the ceiling." "Oh, okay. So what kind of tile do you need?" "Tile?" "To go along the ceiling, right?" "Uh, I don't need tile. I need crown molding."

Vegetarians at the Barbecue

We don't see our friends as often as we would like.  Something about us being the only ones married and with kids.  Whatever.  So any chance to have them all come play is a welcome one.  Since Jeffrey just had a birthday, we decided to have a barbecue tonight. We are having a barbecue and we don't eat meat.  Kind of ironic, isn't it?  When I thought about it, this video came to mind. Veggie At A Barbeque - Click here for the funniest movie of the week Have a fabulous Memorial Day weekend!
