Tired, oh so tired…

I am tired tonight.  It’s late, as you may see.  And I’m tired.  But I’m still typing, what does that mean?  I really don’t know, but oh well.  My home is quiet…  except for my typing keys.  
My hubby (I typed bubby… that wasn’t right was it?!?)  leaves for Ukraine in 5 days, I leave [...]

A New Addiction…

Just thought I’d let you know what our new addiction is…  the Brain & Word Game on Facebook. Stephen and I have been sitting at separate computers for over an hour now battling each other and other friends’ scores…  It’s been a nice way to end the day.
Actually, no, the best way to end the [...]

Sunday Afternoons…

I am sitting here in the traditional Sunday afternoon position…  sitting in a reclined position, stomach full, and kids, mostly, asleep.  (1 down, 1 almost, 1 shortly…all in good time!)  
I was wishing that I had something profound to share but I really don’t.  God has been speaking in whispers lately.  No huge revelations.  No [...]

Naked Belly Dancer…and Garage Sale Victory!

Yes, my title is provocative and it also causes me to laugh again and again and again…
You see, we were having dinner with friends last night and we made it through, almost, before Sophia realized she was being left out.  So, Stephen was holding her at the table…  Right before dinner she had eaten her [...]

The Road Not Taken…

The Road Not Taken
By Robert Frost
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth.
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted [...]

An Apple Baby…

No, not that kind…  After months of praying, saving, praying, thinking, researching, thinking, hesitating, (you get the picture…)
Stephen clicked [order] on a new computer…  (Our’s we got for a wedding present in 1999… yup, it barely crawls!!!  We’ve been blessed the past couple months to be able to borrow one, but it was time to [...]

Oh, I don’t know… Random Thoughts

Okay, so you want to know a secret?!?  I hate coming up with titles!  It’s horrible!  I always feel like they’ll either be better or worse than what I write – It’s a lot of pressure for a “firstborn, frustrated perfectionist”
I’ll try better next time. 
Here’s a couple pictures from camp that I promised yesterday (was [...]

“This is the Camp that never ends… it just goes on and on my friends…”

Did you like my seranade?  Okay, I can’t even spell that word, but you get the jist…
So, it’s taken me a while to post about camp.  We kinda hit the ground running.  Time is ticking down on the days between now and when Stephen leaves for the Ukraine.  We went out over the weekend and [...]

Missing Pappaw…

This picture is of pappaw…  Charles Betts.  It’s funny, I have thought all day today was the 17th and I’ve been thinking that I was going to write this post tomorrow.  I went to three stores and wrote checks for the 17th and then realized at some point tonight when my mom called to check [...]
