A Day in My Life in Pictures
The other day, I read a guest post on i heart faces by Jason Zimmerman about how to capture a day in your life using pictures. I absolutely loved his pictures and decided to give it a try. My pictures didn’t come out as great, interesting or fascinating as his did but it’s my life and I love it. And um, capturing a day in your life in photographs is harder than I thought. I took over 100 pictures using my GE X500, a tripod and cell phone. At the end of the day, I narrowed it down to 62 images. Then I uploaded them to my computer and began…

New House Tour: The Front Porch
You can’t see me, but I’m dancing a jig. Well, I’m not really ’cause I don’t know how to dance a jig but if I did, I would, but it wouldn’t matter ’cause you wouldn’t be able to see me so you’d have to take my word for it. So either way, you just have to trust that I’m happy about my current living situation. Whew! We have a house. A nice house. A beautiful house that has made us all incredibly happy. Now to be honest, when I first saw the house, I hated it. I thought, I could muddle through for six months. Nine months max. But absolutely…

Safe Browsing on Facebook
Hey, friends, it’s time to change those security settings on Facebook again! I know, inward groan. Why oh why hasn’t Facebook decided to make security something that we have to opt out of rather than opt in to? SWITCH TO SECURE BROWSING On the right hand side, go to “Account” and select “Account Settings” On the left hand side, go to “Security” and select “Secure Browsing” Check the box that says “Browse Facebook on a secure connection (https) when possible Save your changes Your URL should now begin with “https” Although there aren’t any guarantees in cyberspace, it’s better to be safe than sorry. And, really, do you wanna be…

Things Happened While I Was Disconnected
So much has happened in the last week and a half that I’ve been disconnected. Most of it’s been good, some of it’s been bad and the rest has been seriously? I had planned to write out a post for each and every thing that happened but decided against it. You know, for my own sanity. And because I don’t want to overwhelm you with the craziness that is my life right now. So here’s a bit of the happenings from the past few days: We have a home ~ When we moved here, we didn’t have a home. We had the possibility of a home but nothing definitive. I…

Getting to Know Cape Girardeau/Jackson
Wow, so I didn’t go without the interwebs as long as I thought I would. Thank you, Comfort Suites, for the use of your internet service. We truly appreciate it. The kids and I thought we’d have to go at least a week or so without being connected, I don’t know what decade we think we’re living in now. Everything is instant. And many hotels have free access. And, um, there are libraries and cafes… So today was our first full day in our new home state and, so far, we are loving it. The kids are overwhelmed by southern hospitality. You should see them freak out every time somebody…

My Parents are Spoiling My Kids
Oh my gosh! We have been crazy busy this week. As you know, the kids and I left Pennsylvania for good on 23 July and have been chillin’ with my parents in Mississippi for the week and, lemme tell ya, they sure know how to show their grandkids a good time. On Saturday, my twin sister and her family came in from Tennessee for a visit. That was the first time all of our families have been under one roof in gosh close to fifteen years. Kid you not. We definitely missed the hubs but he’s taking care of the house and making sure it’s all ready for it’s new…

Hangin’ in Mississippi with the Parentals
Soooo this is the longest moving trip ever. Ever. But it’s also been a lot of fun. The kids and I left Pennsylvania Saturday and flew to Alabama where my dad picked us up and drove us to his home in Mississippi. The flight itself was relatively uneventful. Unless you consider the fact that none of our gates were listed on our boarding passes or on the monitors and we had three gate changes in Detroit. But I’m glad my kids got to see some of the hinks that come with flying. I like for them to see how even the best laid plans are subject to change, it gives…

Saying Goodbye to Pennsylvania
Saying “goodbye” to our home of eight years and looking forward to our new life in Missouri. Pennsylvania has been our home for the last 15 years. Sometimes I can’t believe it’s been that long. Sometimes it feels longer. When we first arrived, Miss 17 was 2 years old, Mr. and Miss 15 weren’t crawling and Miss 14 was still tucked safely inside my uterus. I know how much she likes it when I throw that word around. Now Miss 17 is preparing for her first year of college. Mr. 15 is thinking about getting his driver’s license and posing with adjusting the mirrors in my car. Miss 15 is…
