joyful strength: warm hearts
http://linnea-joyfulstrength.blogspot.com/2015/01/warm-hearts.html
Tuesday, January 13, 2015. I've been doing some small projects as I wait for our baby girl to be born! It's helpful to distract myself with something creative when I'm feeling so ready to greet this sweet little one. I also recently saw that a friend (and relative) of mine made a small hot pack for her preemie's belly; it has helped his tummy troubles to subside and allowed him to sleep! Baby Center also recommends. A warm pack like that for soothing colic in newborns, and I thought I should make one.

joyful strength: thrifting
http://linnea-joyfulstrength.blogspot.com/2015/01/thrifting.html
Wednesday, January 7, 2015. This is how I roll. Welcoming the new year, looking for deals, and thrifting. I have to bring my boy up right, you know? He got a little birthday money from his great grandpa, and so we went off to the thrift store. This time around, I figured I better start the size 3T stash of clothes for Joshie. My slim little guy needs adjustable waist pants, so that was on the top of the list. I figured that "Great Grandpa Ed" would probably want him to have some sort of toy, too. Cars Th...

And trying to get over it. Wednesday, December 8, 2010. Wishing for a(nother) winter wonderland. I gotta say it: christmas always comes too fast. i would like there to be 2 months between thanksgiving and christmas. there are just not enough days for me to prepare. and i am even more behind than i've been in previous years. christmas cards not even started yet! That should be interesting, and nice. well, it will have to suffice). I thought you didn't like all this cold." i said: "what? I don't like gray.

under the weather: bloomin' june
http://rachelnyssen.blogspot.com/2011/06/bloomin-june.html
And trying to get over it. Friday, June 17, 2011. Not to be constantly griping about the weather, (the local news DID call the month we just had "mayvember" by the way, AND area billboards have taken to suggesting we take a break from the "sweltering 68 degrees" - with a beer, and that "who needs the sun? In an effort to focus on the positive, i thought i would post some sunny pictures. i like to follow the sun around, so here we are catching some rays at greenlake. And many days, even cloudy days, the s...

And trying to get over it. Friday, October 1, 2010. Let's go to the movies (see the movies! Let's go see the stars. Enter the film projector. Then lights, splice, ok -we're rolling. and back for more. The evening's entertainment might include:. The just a spoonful of sugar. Scene from mary poppins. Sequence from bedknobs and broomsticks. And the rumble in the marketplace. Sequences from disney's robin hood. (Long Live King Richard! No way. the 2nd one? So: i've finally bit the bullet, grabbed a brief mom...

And trying to get over it. Wednesday, January 5, 2011. And so it begins: another new year. Am i still eating boxing day meatballs? Why, yes i am. and am i still drinking leftover mulled wine? Happily so. (though not at this moment) and is it gray and raining outside? Why, yes it is! Though to be fair, we just had some gorgeous rays that lasted for a few days.). If you are wondering if a 6 party skype is possible, well, it is! And now it's a new year. So that is top of my new list. He got his first cell-p...

And trying to get over it. Thursday, September 20, 2012. A christmas passage to india. I have just discovered this in the draft pile, from Dec.2011! Seems i forgot to post it. it is old news now, and things did not go quite according to plans. when traveling, one must be flexible! Update to follow. soon-ish.) seems like my usual first sentence these days is: it's been awhile. sigh. We did not know our status. we did not find out til the second week of november, that it was yes, we were a GO! There were n...

So it's not quite my last name, but close enough. Feb 1, 2013. Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going." Jim Ryun. Motivating and refreshing, to me, currently:. New shoots of green grass. A clear and clean dining room table. Shredding the 'to shred' pile of papers. Does it carry over into the next day or does it wait until next week? Putting things in the mail that have been waiting to be mailed. Less stuff on the kitchen counter. Not being sick after being sick. 5'3", brown ha...
