With life being crazy like it has been I’ve been neglecting a few things, like getting online and writing. Normally this is something I enjoy doing, but some things needed to wait, so now maybe I’m back. I am still having problems with kidney stones. Let me tell you, that is one pain that IContinue reading

1. Rain- I love the sound of rain on the roof and the smell of rain. Plus, it means slightly warmer weather. 2. Airplanes- My baby brother is being released from his mission today, but won’t get home until tomorrow due to flight schedules. I’m so glad that he can fly home instead of slowerContinue reading “Monday's Miracles”

After going into false labor on Tuesday and being completely bummed on Wednesday, I got cabin fever Thursday. I just wanted to go out and have some fun and go to Twin without kids. That meant that either I needed a babysitter so Robert could go with me, or I had to find someone elseContinue reading “Cabin Fever”

1. Tums- they have been a great friend to me lately. 2. Games- I love having game nights 3. Calendars- If I didn’t have one I know I would be forgetting a lot more than I already do. 4. Pens- it seems like I can only find them about half of the time and IContinue reading “Monday's Miracles”

I’m up again at 2:30. I just can’t seem to sleep lately. Either it’s because I’m hungry (a common occurrence) or because I’m sore. Tonight it seems to be both. My back is achy and I have an annoying knot right by my shoulder blade. Normally I’d sleep on my back and it wouldn’t putContinue reading “Middle of the Night rambling”

I have got Spring Fever really bad. It all started with the seed catalogs. I didn’t even want to look at them when they first started coming because the world outside was covered in white and I knew it wasn’t leaving any time soon. Well, lately the snow has started melting, Robert has been outContinue reading “Spring Fever”

1. Library Cards- We just recently got our family library cards for the Twin Falls Library and we are all sure enjoying the many books we now have access to. 2. Bubble Baths- I think I take one almost every day right now. I love having a book to read while I soak away myContinue reading “Monday's Miracles”

So, for the most part, I love my house. I love that it has room for us to grow. I love that I have a sewing room and a spacious kitchen. I love my bedroom and master bathroom. I love that Robert can get dressed and not have to turn on the bedroom light toContinue reading “Home Can Be…..”

1. The internet- I love all the things you can do online. You can find friends, communicate with friends, reserve books, do price comparisons, research…..the list goes on. 2. A good night’s sleep- I finally had a good night’s sleep and I feel so much better today. 3. Sunshiny days- I’m hoping for one ofContinue reading “Monday's Miracles”

I just got a children’s illustrated book of The Secret Garden. I love The Secret Garden. Well, they had a picture of Mary first going into the garden and it got me thinking. I want my own “Secret Garden”. I want a walled in garden that I can go to and be alone and findContinue reading “Dreaming”
