Shoe Style Saturday
A few years ago, a friend of mine sent me a postcard that said: “Change your shoes, change your mood.” I thought it was absolutely brilliant. Whenever I put on these shoes, I feel young, flirty and fun. I don’t wear them often, just enough to remind myself that there’s still a young, flirty and fun woman under all the mom stuff… Do you have a pair of shoes that are mood changers? To participate in Shoe Style Saturday, all you have to do is take a picture of your shoes post them to your blog hit the link leave a comment visit other participants So, come on and show…

Reading the Bible in 90 Days: What I Learned
Around November 2010, my mom (an evangelist), and I were talking about bibles and the various translations and their readability, when she told me that she had one that she wanted to send me to read. Inwardly I groaned. Growing up, my mom’s not~so~subtle questioning of my salvation had always been a sore spot with me. In fact, I’d say that it directly led to my rebellious phase. So when the Bible arrived, I left it in the mailing envelope, on the corner of the dining room table, touching it only to move it from place to place so the family could eat our meals… Around the end of December,…

There’s No Place Like Home
Oh, Dorothy, truer words have never been spoken… We finally made it home at 9:45 last night. To read the beginning of this journey, go here, I’ll wait... Well, no, we made it to Wilkes~Barre, Pennsylvania at 9:45, we didn’t make it to our house until after 10:30. Yes, a journey that started at 6 AM (3:30 if you count the wake up at the hotel) ended at 10 something last night. So why were we trapped in the black hole of airports also known as O’Hare International? A weather delay. Personally, I’m started to think the whole delay in Chicago thing is a conspiracy, it’s a test of patience,…

Oh the Places We Won’t Go
If you follow me on Facebook, you know that the hubs and I have been having a heck of a time getting back home to Pennsylvania… Right now, as I type this, we are stuck in the inner thigh of airports ~ Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. I know, right? Look at me blogging from the airport ’cause I’m all I wanna share my adventures in real time with my bloggy friends. We’ve been in transit since 6 this morning, it’s now 3:56 PM and I’m no closer to getting home than I was when I was curled up on the bed at the hotel. But before I get to the…

Loose Threads and Random Thoughts
I promise I haven’t given up writing for capturing souls with that magic box, it’s just that I’ve been busy taxiing kids, touring Missouri and trying to keep all the other knives that I juggle up in the air. Really, motherhood is not easy. 1. I’ve been in Missouri since Thursday ~ flew in first class… So. Much. Leg. Room. Our flight attendant was hilarious, swore up and down people tell him he looks like Denzel Washington. Ummm, he was about 5′ 8″ and balding. But he made me laugh. 2. I finally got to see my sister’s baby for the first time in 8 months. Ohmygosh, talk about heart…

Crazy Days of Summer: Water
JOIN ME FOR SHOE STYLE SATURDAY It’s a fun meme all about shoes. For more information, click here. Frances Slocum State Park A few weeks ago, the hubs suggested that we drive to the lake and take some pictures. This was one of the best ideas he’d had in a long time. The lake was incredibly beautiful and watching people fish was relaxing. Huntsville Dam This dam is about 300 feet from my house. Hard to believe something so beautiful can be so dangerous. A few years ago, it burst and we were evacuated from our homes at 2 something in the morning. Hard part? Remembering to take the necessities and…
