Five (+1) On The Day After Friday

I was on the run all day yesterday and the only chance I had to do my Five on Friday post (3rd edition) was as I was climbing into bed last night, but I would have had to do it on my iPhone and there was no way that was happening. So I’m changing things…

Five On Friday, September 2011, 2nd edition

1.  The 2011/2012 preschool year started this past Tuesday. It’s great to hear the sound of laughing kids (which is MUCH better than the sound of crying kids) and it’s nice to have the teachers back in the building. This is my third year of starting up the school and every time I think I’ve finally got it under…

Where In The World Have I Been?

Or more appropriately, where has the last week gone?? Is this what happens when you go back to work? You’re actually up and out and doing things and the next thing you know, the entire week is gone and you’re onto the next one? And not just the working thing, either, but Todd was in…

Speaking of Random…

For the last couple of days I’ve been thinking about various posts to write, however, when I actually try to type something I come up empty. Sometimes that happens when I think too much. Which is why I prefer to think as little as possible. So I’m going to try a “stream of consciousness” post…

Blah, Blah, Blah…

I feel like I’ve got nothing to say. “When have you ever let that stop you before?”, you might be asking. And you’re right! I’ve never let the absence of something to say stop me. So welcome to today’s installment of Mundane Musings. Remember a few weeks ago I was all pumped about starting Weight…

A Little Less Random…

Hannah is supposed to hit here tonight. Since yesterday afternoon I’ve been getting text messages and email warnings from the National Weather Service about heavy rains and flooding in our area all day tomorrow. We’re supposed to have the kids who work the tech booth on Sunday nights over for burgers tomorrow evening. Most of…

My Week in Review

SUNDAY Katie sang in the band Sunday evening so I went to watch. Before the service I sat outside, visiting with Ben and his Katie and watching some hot air balloons in the distance. When I walked back out after she sang I saw one of the balloons fairly low just on the other side…

A Bunch of Good Stuff

So what’s up? Nothin’ much going on here. Just the usual. You know. Todd’s at work – he’s got major short timer’s disease, but he’s making a valiant effort; Katie’s babysitting; Taylor’s at CIY in Tennessee – kind of like church camp only much more intense. Katie’s Little Homies are going camping this afternoon through…

The Most Incredible Mother’s Day

**WARNING**LENGTHY POST Yesterday was an odd, yet wonderful Mother’s Day. It ranks right up there as one of, if not my favorite Mother’s Days ever. Another high ranking Mother’s Day was when the kids were small. It was a chilly, rainy day and when we came home from church Todd and the kids went to…

More Nothing

Today was my first day back at work since spring break and the kids’ first day back to school. To say this morning was crumby is an understatement! After more than a week of sleeping late to all of a sudden getting up at 6:30 – or 5:45 if you’re Taylor – was, in the…
