Yesterday in an attempt to use up some leftovers, I made this for lunch. And I offer Becky my sincerest apologies, and promise to never feed her this when she comes to vist. In fact, I promise to never feed this to anyone again!!
Two packages of Kraft Dinner
A piece of veal left over from my [...]

We watched the new Pride & Prejudice last night — the one with Keira Knightley. (Yes, this is also the same one I watched yesterday afternoon, but I really wanted to know what Marc thought of if, and it has to be back today by 6pm.) Marc enjoyed it. And I enjoyed it more watching [...]

I started the day off with several calls each with their own rendition of “Happy Birthday” — my parents came out of left field and sang me a version I’ve never heard before, which they used to sing in Sunday School. (Unfortunately, because I was so taken aback by this new song and wanted to [...]

…nature, a good dose of castor oil, and some(!!) work from a woman named Donna thrust me from my mother’s uterus and into the world as we know it.

since He’s perfect and all, I’m assuming He’s never said, “Why’d I get myself into this mess?”
You know God’s made a few things (well, all the things) and some of those things have become a little messed up.
And I know that God can relate to my predicament of “the whining ungrateful children that you [...]

Last night I had several bizarre dreams. The most intense involved me being on a plane pulling into Calgary that landed at very high speeds. It was very scary. But that was not where the scariness of the dream ended.
Apparently I had to catch another plane after that with two official guys who would take [...]

So, as you can probably tell, I wasn’t having the greatest day yesterday and wasn’t feeling too good about myself either. But the evening proved rather productive, and once again, when the house is organized I cease to be an emotional wreck (for the most part). I sure wish I could get over that and [...]

Did I mention I went to work yesterday? Marc did. He’s not sure exactly what he thinks of our trying out me going into the office one day a week and him being home with the kids while putting in a few hours of office work from home. I, personally, had a great time. Just like riding a [...]

When you’re tired and hormonal and cranky and the kids are irritating and demanding, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT go through all of your pre-pregnancy clothes to see which you should give away.
Because, those pants that used to sit really low on your hips now can only be buttoned when they’re at your belly [...]
