Monday, October 14, 2013. A really long post about a trip to Colorado, priesthood blessings, a temple sealing, an appendix, and swimming with alligators. We've been hanging on to life's roller coaster with white knuckles these past several weeks. It was past 1:00 am for our eastern time zone orientation. We were exhausted. The next morning, my husband went for a 4 mile run - up the ski mountain 2 miles, then back down 2 miles, and then went for a swim. We had a fantastic breakfast together at one of ...

Sunday, February 2, 2014. Roller Coasters and the power of fasting and prayer. This week has been a doozy. Monday, my husband spoke with his HR dept and was told him that after his medical leave expires (in a few weeks), company policy is to terminate the job if the individual isn't ready to return. (They had previously told him something different.). He has been working part time from home since the beginning of January.). He called me at 10:30 and asked me to pick him up. We are grateful for his compan...

Tuesday, November 19, 2013. Just when I thought. You know, sometimes life rolls along smoothly. And then sometimes you just can't catch your breath to get back on your feet. Our daughter decided last night that we are calling this year, year of the plagues! It has been like that. To the Dr we go. Yep, exercise induce asthma. We spent the morning at the Dr office then picking up scripts and stuff to get her healthy again. I so didn't need this. I can't take it. Really I can't! Links to this post. I spent ...

Thursday, December 19, 2013. Yesterday, on our way home from another Dr. appt. my husband and I realized that Christmas is a week away. Now, if you live in any other state than Florida, please try to take this with a grain of salt. But, as a non-Florida native, Christmas time is a very difficult time of year for me to be motivated. Like, how am I supposed to realize it is Christmas when it is 85* outside, and I'm thinking about going to the beach as I plan my day? Woke up with a mission to take chicken n...

Monday, February 2, 2015. A long post about a lot of things from our lives these past two weeks. Good Monday Morning,. This weekend we began a new adventure.we are potty training the kitties. Yes You heard me right. Yes, I am questioning my sanity. We've closed off the toilet in the girl's bathroom, and this weekend, my bedroom and bathroom were cleaned so that they now sparkle - since anyone who comes to our house gets to use the master bath if they need to use the facilities. Last week, I went to the d...

Monday, June 23, 2014. Mormon Woman - Yes I am. While I haven't blogged very often specifically about political or social issues, I wanted to state my thoughts for those of my readers who know I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon). I know there's been a lot in the news about women wanting to be ordained to the priesthood, and I wanted to share my thoughts on the role of women within the Mormon church. I have enough to do, and my house is still messy! Through His atoneme...

Wednesday, May 27, 2015. We've been dealt some interesting endings in the past few weeks. Read on. Today is the last day of school! I've never been as excited as this year. Our oldest daughter has been such a trooper. She's been getting up at 4:40am to get ready for school.well, her alarm goes off then. She has learned the fine art of napping - which she never before appreciated (except when she was 0-5). Sleep deprivation at it's finest. Anyways, she made it through the year! They like their schools, al...

Saturday, May 17, 2014. Today - right now. Here's what's happening today - right now. Bright and early we hung out with these cool people - and layed sod in our neighborhood retention pond. 4 pallets of it, and 60 bags of soil. We got sweaty and dirty, but it was nice to work together with neighbors and good people who we'd never met. Disclaimer - don't look too close. In Florida, crabgrass is called "grass", so yes - we spent the morning laying crab grass. Never thought I'd do that! Links to this post.

Friday, September 5, 2014. Busy Projects, and Sick. The closest thing we get to cold here in Florida in August and September, is the sick kind of cold. The kids have been in school for 4 weeks now. I guess it is that time. Last week, my husband came home from work not feeling well. A friend posted on FB that they were getting rid of some household items, and we called dibs. We rented a handy van from Home Depot bright and early Monday morning, and picked everything up. Several weeks ago, we decided that ...

Thursday, October 9, 2014. LDS Primary Program activity - Sing or Dare. Back when I was the music leader (for 3.5 years) in primary, I came up with a game that we played after the primary program each year. The kids and teachers are usually pretty frazzled, and so this game is a great refresher for everyone! It is light, doesn't require much set up or mental work, and recaps the program, involves the bishopric, does not involve sugar or a video, and is fun for everyone. 4 brown sandwich/lunch bags. Do as...
