Wife of a Fire Man: 11/01/2014 - 12/01/2014

Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Friday, November 28, 2014. Thanks to some (completely unnecessary) family drama, I almost canceled Thanksgiving this year. In addition to the family drama, I didn't know if J and/or R would end up having to work. Being a 25 year veteran fire wife, the work schedule rarely slows me down. Typically we'd carry on without J, or R even - as long as I knew there wasn't any chance of them being present, period. He goes to work at 911, I know he's going to be there 12 hours.

Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Friday, April 24, 2015. It's been a bit since my last post. I guess that's mostly because 1) I've started on several projects, but haven't finished most (any? Of them for one reason or another, and/or 2) my bad, bad.bad, bad, bad mood. We went down to my parent's place in Florida for Easter. My sister and her family came up, and my niece and her fiance' came down, too. We brought my Aunt along with us. The first row is (5) Beefsteak tomato plants, the second row is (6)...

Wife of a Fire Man: Checkin' In
http://gafirewife.blogspot.com/2015/06/checkin-in.html
Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Friday, June 26, 2015. Hope everyone is having an awesome Summer! We've been having some days the past couple of weeks I like to call, "Now that's what they mean when they talk about Summer in the South" days. Upper 90° (F) temps, with 90's % humidity.100° heat indices - whooo boy! Just stepping out the backdoor you break out into a sweat. It's like stepping into a Sauna. I've spent more time outside than in, getting more stuff done. It's awesome! We did go in and encl...

Wife of a Fire Man: New Addition
http://gafirewife.blogspot.com/2015/07/new-addition.html
Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Thursday, July 16, 2015. Meet our new little. Kitten, named.uhh, Kiki, I guess. As in, "Heeeeeere, Kikikikikiki". lol. We're not too good at naming our pets apparently. Our last cat was called Kitty. He had had a name at the pound where we got him, "Tod", but Santa brought Kitty as a kitten to Kev for Christmas that year, so we left the naming up to him. We had a bet he'd go with "Snowball" since Kitty was all white, but he fooled us, he picked "Snowflake", LMAO. Image...

Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Friday, March 27, 2015. Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake. Then there was the day my youngest son said, "You should make a giant cookie cake". I used to buy a giant cookie "cake" for one of the boys' birthday every so often, but since they're grown up now, and besides I quit buying/started making cakes myself, we (they) haven't had a giant cookie in a long time. So, I looked up a recipe. And set about making a giant cookie.cake. If you'll notice in the recipe. Next time, I wo...

Wife of a Fire Man: Whine: I'm Depressed
http://gafirewife.blogspot.com/2015/07/whine-im-depressed.html
Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Thursday, July 23, 2015. Don't you love it when you tell someone you're depressed and their response is, "You need to cheer up! Kind of like a while back when I told my parents that every decision I've made in my whole life has been the wrong. One, so now I pretty much just don't make decisions anymore. You need to start making better decisions.". Gosh, wish I had thought of that myself, it would have saved me a lot of regret and heartache. Is it too much to ask? Appar...

Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Saturday, May 31, 2014. Graduation Tassel Christmas Ornament. We're getting some more nice little t-storms this evening, lots of good rain after a good day of sunshine. J came in after a 48-hour shift (24/24) and had a massage appointment midday, so it wasn't much of a work day. Usually I don't plan any kind of project/work on days after he works 48 hours, so that we did anything at all was a win. A few days ago, I was upstairs going through some things and saw the tas...

Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Wednesday, October 29, 2014. One thing about being sick is how good it feels when you're not sick anymore. And when the weather is so nice. The weather has been soooo nice the past few days. Neither hot nor cold. I've had the windows and doors open, letting in some fresh air. Monday, I took my oldest son home after having spent the weekend with us and stopped by a Thrift store on the way back. Found a few good deals. This navy blue, Velour (? Otherwise, I got to work o...

Wife of a Fire Man. And Mom to 3XY. Wednesday, July 15, 2015. Man, oh man, Summer is just flying by. Kids go back to school in less than 3 weeks! Thank goodness all mine are out and I don't have to worry about all that anymore.even if it does make me old. I've still been spending a good bit of time outside, soaking up the heat.
