I Interrupt this blog…

…to confuse you all!
I am switching back to Blogger, since I seem to have absolutely no trouble posting pictures to it.  WordPress, on the other hand, gives me a headache each time I attempt picture posting.  So, Goodbye WordPress!  Please go here, then save this link to your bookmarks

Music to my ears

In our house, we have a saying.  It’s not one that I created, but one that I heard Alex’s teacher say last year, and I fell in love with.  It really does say everything that needs to be said when one of my 3 whiny kiddos is complaining about something.  Today, Ian, my 3 year [...]

Life

My sister recently informed me that I am a slacker. Since I haven’t blogged in a few weeks, that, apparently, gives her permission to call me names? I think not! I am, indeed, not a slacker. I am one of the busiest people I know – well, outside of Judy. [...]

Cracked Pipes

The verdict.  We had no less than 2 cracked pipes directly underneath the upstairs bath, and one of them was not a ’sewage’ pipe and would have had to have been replaced at some point anyway!  So, we now have 2 new pipes, a new bathtub faucet and knobs (since they were leaking into the [...]

No Water, No Fun!!

It’s the little things that you learn to appreciate…like having a roof over your head that doesn’t leak…or better yet, a ceiling that doesn’t fall down on your head, or your electronic equipment! You see, we’ve been having an ‘issue’ with water randomly dripping from the ceiling in our living room, right in front [...]

Frustration

Well, I have a cute picture and a post that I’ve been working on for like 4 days, but I can’t seem to get the picture to upload properly. So, my post sits in the ‘drafts folder’ awaiting the picture. And I sit & ponder switching back to Blogger (gasp!) because I can’t [...]

A Scene at the Library

Yesterday, which happened to be a Sunday, we slept in. Our original plans included attending church for the first time in 2 months (the holidays, traveling, having visitors – they all wreak havoc on our getting to church on Sundays, so we usually take a break), but due to a funky cough that Morgann [...]

A Good Day

What is a good day in my world? Here I will share…a day in which I get to sleep in just a bit (til 9:30AM thanks to kids that decide to play instead of fight), I wash/fold/put away 4 loads of laundry (and still counting), the kids are so quiet that we can go [...]

A Note of Caution

While opening one of my Christmas presents today, a new, giant, non-stick skillet that I’ve been wanting for a while, I decided to take a quick second to read the enclosed “instructions” to be sure I didn’t need to do anything to the non-stick surface of the pan before or during the first use.  While [...]

A Photo Oportunity

Every year we take a family picture in front of the Christmas tree. I enjoy looking back, and sometimes laughing, at the the way the kids cooperated (or maybe didn’t!), and to see how much they have grown from one year to the next. Here is this year’s photo…everyone actually smiled!

Here’s hoping that your Christmas [...]
