Why is it that once you start using something and like it, they go and change it on you? It doesn’t have to be just products either. Apparently according to sis Stacy, I used old facebook too long because I do NOT like the new facebook. I must not be the only one because I […]

Since I just posted about the fall reading challenge yesterday I thought I might should skip this month but have decided to play along anyway. This is what my nightstand looks like this morning…… So the quick and easy […]

We had a good time with Katelyn but she’s gone home now and we’re trying to get back into a routine here! She’s very active, always on the go or wants to play and I’ve forgotten how to manage toddlers and housework. Just let some of it slide and enjoy the rest, right?!! There was […]

A few years ago I was lucky enough to get a new washer and dryer but not just any kind, the fancy front loading high efficiency kind! Overall I’ve been pretty pleased with it….it holds a lot, seems to wash way better than my old machine and uses less water I believe. Recently though the […]

It’s only been in the last few years that I’ve learned to like coffee, although it’s usually what I put in the coffee that I truly like more!

I wasn’t familiar with the line from a country song I’m using today but sorta liked it! Stacy will probably know it since it’s more in one of her genres of music. A list is what I need today….. 1. Need to put sheets on the beds upstairs so Katelyn will have someplace to sleep. […]

How can it be that I have grown kids, when did that happen? The time has gone by way too fast. And oh my goodness, how is it that a couple of my kids have babies? The oldest child of my oldest son started kindergarten last week; it seems like just last year that he […]
