I can’t believe it is only noon. This day has gone so slow. I don’t know what to do with myself and nothing really interests me. I did paint a few more stools for my Christmas gifts, and added the transfers to one of them. I should start sorting through my Christmas decorations, but I [...]

Thanksgiving…the aftermath
Posted in Posts on November 29, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Yesterday was Thanksgiving and it was a very trying day all the way around. The kids and I went to a dinner given at the fire house where I volunteer. It was a wonderful meal with my friends and fellow firefighters and their families, but very sad too. Aidan sat across the room from everyone [...]

According to my countdown ticker we only have 29 more days to go! I can’t wait. Of course, the blackout starts Friday for them so we won’ t even be able to talk to Eric for 2 weeks. That is going to be hard. Of course the kids and I are busy preparing for Christmas. [...]

We are down to 32 days before Eric comes home. 32 long days and short nights.
The kids are home for the next 8 days for Thanksgiving vacation. What am I going to do with them for that long? Well, we are going to watch a lot of movies, clean a lot of closets, and hopefully [...]

Just when you think everything is going too well, life laughs in your face. McKenna had her teeth pulled out this morning. It ended up being more work than initially planned because a third tooth had been broken by an adult tooth coming in. The oral surgeon decided to take that broken baby tooth out [...]

That’s how long until Eric comes home for Christmas. Just 36 more days. I can survive for 36 more days. Actually things are falling into place here. The kids realized I am taking discipline seriously and I haven’t had to really do anything mean to anyone. Orren served his first timeout and the next time [...]

Well, we had a pretty good weekend here. It rained for 2 days, but today was pretty nice. Cold, but nice. It is getting to that time of year where the weather turns cold and stays cold. It is really windy too and all the leaves are blowing off the trees. My mom and stepdad [...]

I hate the rain. I wanted to go grocery shopping today. Too wet and cold to drag the little boys out to the stores. Aaron is already sick and I don’t want ot make him worse. I guess I will wait for the rain to clear and the sun to come out. It has been [...]
