Shannon thought I’d be able to say it better, but Mr. Man, I’m here to tell you I couldn’t have said it half so well. “Get rid of everything you don’t want them to become” is my new favourite quote. This week I’m trying to purge and simplify and teach my kids to [...]

Lots and nothing to say

This will be a drivel post for those who are kind enough to be interested in the minutiae of today.
My rose bushes are freshly pruned. In March. As opposed to June, months later than they should be. Wonders never cease.
This morning I was the kind of tired that makes your eyes feel [...]
Another good quote

Lovin’ my new book.
“Opportunity is missed by most people because
it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.”
Thomas A. Edison
Ain’t that the truth.
I’ve been guilty of missing opportunity on more than one occasion. Here’s to a new day, another chance, and opportunities in overalls!

I received a package in the mail today: books. I love books. When I get into one, it’s so hard to put it down. One that I received today is going to be that kind of book, but it’s not a romance, a mystery or even a comedy. I’ll tell you [...]

I recently took a few moments to sit down with my daughter’s camera and camera manual and figured out what I was doing wrong in attempting to upload my pictures. (My computer still refuses to acknowledge that my camera exists, so I have to put my memory card in my daughter’s camera to upload [...]

My dad gave me an article to read today, and told me that if someone was going to blog they should blog about it. That in itself is huge, my dad not being much of a fan of wasting time in front of the computer blogging. It’s a good article, but I’m too [...]
It was indeed.

Thank you to everyone for the gifts, treats and well-wishes; a happy day was had by all. My daughter baked and decorated the most delicious (and prettiest) banana cake I’ve ever seen, all the kids made me cards and decorated for the party, and we had the rest of the family over to celebrate [...]
BRF: Mark 1-4

Totally fell off the BRF wagon this week, folks. I’m working on another post to talk about that. Sort of a Fresh is best, Part 2.
In the few times I did read, it became painfully clear that I have trouble with the narrative portions of scripture. I loved the gospels, I loved [...]

An online game that I LOVE. I’m really not the computer game type, but I do love doing those word puzzles in the paper where you have nine letters and you make as many words as possible from those letters. Make A Word is just like that, only it is a little tricky [...]
