Death would be a relief…

Ok, so maybe that’s a bit over-board, but as of Sunday night, that’s what I was thinking.
I woke up Sunday morning to a 7 year old complaining about not feeling well and having a sore throat, only to find out he was running a fever. So, like any good mommy, I gave him some [...]

ER’s, IV’s, CAT’s and MOPS

Yesterday morning, at precisely 5:45AM, I woke up to a pain that I can only describe as feeling like I had been stabbed. It was excruciating and I could barely talk. I had to hit Michael a few times until he finally woke up enough for me to beg him to pray. [...]

Here to stay…unless I move!

Well, I’ve decided to make the switch to WordPress. I’m hoping to adjust to the differences between Blogger & WordPress, and really hoping that I don’t lose my mind in the process Should I feel my mind beginning to ‘go’, I will immediately change back – I’m too busy and involved [...]

New Blog Address!

Well, since my friends & family have voiced their opinions about the new blog versus the old blog, I think I’ve decided to make the switch!

New to WordPress…

Ok, so I’m new at using WordPress and I’ve wasted…err, I mean spent a good part of the day trying to figure it out. It’s not quite a simple as Blogger, but I like the way it looks much better. I think it’s the template choices that I like, so if I could find [...]

Find a Cure!

Are you aware that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month?
As many of you know, I lost my mother, Shirley Vanzant, to breast cancer more than 5 years ago, so to me, awareness is everything. But being aware isn’t enough; we need to be proactive in prevention and early detection. If you haven’t done [...]

She’s Finally Here!

From the sounds of the title, you’d think I was speaking of a baby…well, she is my baby if you consider she’s only 6 weeks old I’ve named her Mia Joy – we’ll stick with calling her Mia (pronounced Me-uh). Mia means “mine” – which she most definitely is – [...]

Deep, Dark Secret

Ok, so I have a confession…I am not a neat-nick! There, I’ve said it!!! I feel so much better Well, sort of, anyway. Ok, so that statement isn’t necessarily true – I do like things to be cleaned and in their place, but I do not enjoy being the [...]
