Seemingly So Sweet: December 2008

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Monday, December 22, 2008. Just a run down of the past few days. I woke up real early with sharp chest pains. Tried to wait it out to see if it went away, finally went to the ER to be sure. Nothing bad, just.Costcochondritis. Nasty stuff, could be from all that snow shoveling. I sleep all day while Mr. Smith drives the kids down to Grandma's for a sleepover. I am still sick, now the kids are getting sick. The whole family missed church, and I slept from 9am to 9pm, then from 10pm to Monday morning. I sit...

Seemingly So Sweet: Living in the Milky Way

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2009/10/lifes-milky-way.html

Saturday, October 10, 2009. Living in the Milky Way. Life is like a box of chocolates. right? I feel like I am constantly working on being less judgmental. Of others. Of myself. I had pretty much made my mind up on what I thought of Miss MaGoo's teacher. Our first encounter wasn't the most positive experience. most likely for both of us. Her eyes got real big and in a whisper-type voice she asked."what? I got close to her face and said "They will. CALL ME! So when I went in for Parent/Teacher Conference,...

Seemingly So Sweet: Basic Survival

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2009/10/basic-survival.html

Wednesday, October 14, 2009. For FHE this week I did the lesson :). No really, it has been great to skip shopping for a few weeks and know that grabbing some things in the basement will give me what I need for a great meal. Besides milk, eggs, and a couple loaves of bread. I stretched my grocery shopping longer than I may ever have. Anyways. I wanted to get preachy for a moment. (I won't make a habit of it! So what terrible things can happen that would threaten the survival of our spirit? They which do h...

Seemingly So Sweet: Know a good Mechanic?

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2009/07/know-good-mechanic.html

Thursday, October 8, 2009. Know a good Mechanic? Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death. Depression is a funny battle. I think that often times I look for a reason of why I might be depressed. and there just isn't one. My cycles aren't super manic anymore. but they go something like this. Sometimes I can trace it back to an event or experience, and sometimes. I can't.

Seemingly So Sweet: Super Mom

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2009/10/super-mom.html

Wednesday, October 28, 2009. This is the time of year I dread. It gets harder, not easier. and each year I think I am prepared, mentally, to handle it. I told Mr. Smith that this year I'm going tanning once or twice this winter. maybe once a week. When I was younger, my doctor talked about that. Now, I bet the risks of skin cancer are not worth an attempt to 'brighten my day' but if I get desperate. you'll find me frying like a fish in one of those beds! I also realized that maybe I need to expect more f...

Seemingly So Sweet: Wishes. Fishes. Cigars

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2009/10/wishes-fishes-cigars.html

Monday, October 12, 2009. Wishes. Fishes. Cigars. Since becoming anonymous I have a hard time following friends and family's blogs. Private blogs are the hardest, because any invitation I got was accepted by my old account. So I have to log into my old account to look at their blogs. bummer. And I removed my blogroll from my old blog before I transferred them all over. suck. How can you ask everyone to email you and invitation. again? Argh what to do! That's okay. But anonymous comments freak people ...

Seemingly So Sweet: August 2009

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html

Thursday, August 27, 2009. Back to homework, Back to books, Back to teacher's dirty looks. So people think I'm crazy. but I don't look forward to my kids going back to school. Not at all! I love having them home with me, I love sleeping in, watching cartoons together in my bed. I love the warm nights, the sun not going down until 9pm! I love the chaos, no schedules or set bedtimes. I just love the freedom. 1 Sassy pants started Preschool. I always hated that the youngest child in the family got so mu...

Seemingly So Sweet: April 2009

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

Thursday, April 30, 2009. K-day stands for CRAPPY DAY! Fruitcake went to her 'K-Day' appointment.aka.four shots! It's a special, fun, exciting visit with the doctor. What is it really? It's a scary, torturous and painful hour of hell. Oh wait! But they bribe you with a TINY cup of chocolate milk (seriously, like a 2 oz. paper cup) and a cookie! No, she did great, only cried while she was getting the shots, then got over it quick. Pricked for Iron.and like her Mama, weirdly high amount of Iron. No...She p...

Seemingly So Sweet: June 2009

http://seeminglysosweet.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html

Tuesday, June 30, 2009. What the "H" is wrong with me? My last post sounds so depressing and negative. WOW! I have somehow become 'crazy-like' sensitive. I guess that 'somehow' is not totally true. I think I know exactly how it happened! I've been seriously jaded over the past year. I think it's made me cynical and ridiculously negative. It feels like such High School drama to worry about things:. Is she mad at me? Does she not like me? Am I important enough? Am I cool enough? How old am I? I should just...
