Stuck in the Marsh: October 2012
http://avalonandrichardmarsh.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Stuck in the Marsh. Sunday, October 28, 2012. This too shall pass. In my bedroom, I have this canvas with these words on them: This too Shall Pass. I know a lot of people use this in a way to say that trials will be overcome but also, less often, it can be used to mean that moments or precious experiences will not last forever. I have used it both ways for sure. That is why at the bottom of the canvas I made sure I had the words: be present. I thought about it as we struggled to have children. I looked a...

Stuck in the Marsh: December 2010
http://avalonandrichardmarsh.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Stuck in the Marsh. Friday, December 31, 2010. Not sure if you have heard of this. Concept or not. I just heard about it today, but have actually been thinking about it for much longer. What is my word going to be for 2011? As I reflect on all that has happened in 2010, I have to wonder if I was up to the growth? Did I take the challenges and learn from them? Did I learn what I was supposed to? And luckily, I live with my constant reminder. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Stuck in the Marsh. Monday, September 19, 2011. We Are Still Alive. So I noticed that the last time I posted was in January. Pretty lame, I know. So here is what we’ve been up to for the last 8 months…. We packed up and left Atlanta. We moved across the country yet again, to Peoria, Illinois. Five states in five years. When we left, it was something like 70 degrees outside. You will see why I told you this information in a few moments. Richard started work at Caterpillar. Richard loves his job. More doct...

Stuck in the Marsh. Monday, November 29, 2010. Sorry to make you all wait so long, but I didn't want to eat my words. We were just waiting on a background check to come through. Good thing that it turned out right or my Christmas cards would have been a little awkward! But it is official, we know where we are going, sometime after the first of the year. I will give you a few picture hints of where we are moving to and what job he has accepted. Did you guess yet? So to recap, things we are excited for:.

Stuck in the Marsh. Wednesday, February 27, 2013. So I went after she had gone to bed, walked in and told them I was donating. No backing out. They had to divide my hair into two ponytails because it was too thick to cut just one. So they chopped it off and I felt about 10 lbs lighter afterward. I mailed my two, 10 inch pony tails off to the Pantene. Wig program. And done. And don't mind the somewhat scary pictures! Friday, February 8, 2013. Four and Five Months. Weight: 15.6 lbs. Laughing at her parents.
