Somehow, even in the vast internet world, I hang onto the fringes. Only a few people read, and even fewer comment. I feel like in the last couple of years, my circle has gotten even smaller. Fewer friends, less interaction, and so called ‘peers’ seem to have all but disappeared. Everyone reads the ‘top 10’ … [Read more…]
This morning Brennan was baptized in our church. Here’s a few pics of her in her fancy dress. Keeley was baptized on Easter, and Brennan on Earth Day. We had her Godmother and a lot of family members there in church. We provided a meal for everyone afterward at the house. She slept through most … [Read more…]
On Saturday, over 200 groups worldwide got together to attempt to change a ‘Guiness book’ record’s worth of cloth diapers! We visited a regional cloth diaper store and participated in their change! The purpose of course was to raise awareness and get together with a few old or new friends. B and I hung out … [Read more…]
http://www.lifeisnotbubblewrapped.com/2009/06/01/june-1-hero/ I don’t know where she went. How long ago and far away has she gone? I’m just not sure. Did the pregnancy wear me down? Have the “f&c%*#g threes” totally obliterated my confidence? Was it the accident? What do you guys think? You probably have more insight into my brain than anyone at … [Read more…]
I’m not very kind to myself. Ever. Okay until I was about 10 I thought I was pretty cool. Then I had a kid look me in the face and say ‘you don’t think you’re pretty do you? because you’re not’. That was the end of kindness to myself. I was never good enough, could … [Read more…]
As much as I grumble about my kids, because, well it’s my job and who doesn’t grumble about their job, right? The hours are too long, the pay is too low, the butts to wipe are too stinky.. Some things make me want to freeze time. Right THERE. Don’t go anywhere. Memory, stay with me … [Read more…]
Recently, there were some tornado touchdowns near us (within a few hours). Plenty of places put out requests for help for the persons involved. A facebook friend (and somewhat distant cousin of Matt’s) posted that her employer was reaching out, and provided a list of supplies. I skimmed through the top portion, which suggested things … [Read more…]
Our church has a knit club. We meet once a month, and although every once in a while someone knits, it’s more about gabbing than anything. *shrug* Before B was born, I started on the small raccoon (above). I worked on it the one day and completely ignored it until I hosted knit club over … [Read more…]
I spent a good bit of Saturday wondering if I was really and actually, truly dead. If everything going on right now is just in my mind, some after-whisper of the brain, slowly deteriorating– the soul trapped in a box you can’t escape? I guess it comes down to feeling completely invisible. My 3 year … [Read more…]
