Hello? Hello? Is this thing on?

So, its been almost, close to, probably over a month since I updated last.  LIFE just sort of got in the way.  I guess that happens sometimes.  Then yesterday I received e-mail notice that my annual website service for this blog was being renewed (why, hello Mastercard!) and that was the prompt I needed to [...]


Copycat

Its a blatant cut and paste from a friend, but too funny not to share …. ***************************************************** Dear Noah, We could have sworn you said the ark wasn’t leaving till 5. Sincerely, Unicorns Dear Twilight fans, Please realize that because vampires are dead and have no blood pumping through them, they can never get an [...]


Profound

Just read this on Facebook: “Death is aways a life-changing experience.” Yeeeeaaaaaah.  Let that sink in for a minute.


What is it with me and public humiliation at sporting events?

So you might remember a few years back I told you about the time I got hit on the head with a basketball at one of Kellen’s games, which was pretty much the most embarrassing moment of that week …. Or the time I was at one of Kellen’s baseball games and I almost knocked [...]


Say What?

Without going into excruciatingly boring detail, Blaine is currently caught up in an insurance black hole of trying to get new dental care lined up.   Due to his unusual circumstances and needs (thank you, radiation!)  the doctors who take our insurance can’t give him the treatment he needs, and the doctors who can give him the [...]


Mid way point

So here we are, mid-way through November, and I am up on a Saturday morning, staring down the barrel at basically 48 hours of nothing to do.  Except laundry.  Because when is there EVER not laundry to do in the average American home???   But my 48 hours of basically nothing to do is glorious, and mostly [...]


In a nutshell. A very large, photographic nutshell.

Even for me ….

Like most parents in this day and age, I am fairly accustomed to juggling several balls in the air at once.  But even for me, life has been exceptionally busy the past  two weeks, and “update blog”, which I promise is on my to-do list every single day, continues to get pushed down the list.  [...]


If you’re reading this ….

Well, if you’re reading this, it’s a flipping miracle, is what that is.  Since returning from Outdoor Camp with Kendrie 24 hours ago, either my blog is down, or the administrator page is down, or I’m being told that my username and password used to log into my blog, which I’ve been using almost daily [...]


Silver Linings

:: So clearly, I miss blogging.  I miss sharing funny stories that happen, or getting to post updates and photos of my family.  I miss the support we receive from the people kind enough to follow along here.  I miss the satisfaction of putting pen to paper …… er, fingers to keyboard, and creating something [...]
