We have returned from the Eastern Time ZONE.
Yay.
Not.
We had such a great time in a city that has more to offer than a handful of restaurants, a bowling alley, and two grocery stores.
It’s always refreshing to get out of this small town and remember that there is life out there.  It makes it so much [...]

blogging from my phone…thinking that 3am is early for an insomniac, but i’m here. first stop, starbucks.

I have always loved that song.  It is one I blare in the car and sing to the top of my lungs when nobody is with me.
Today I realized it was about a 13 year old boy that committed suicide after constantly being bullied.  I don’t love it as much.  I feel selfish to use [...]

Em and I had wanted to watch, My Sister’s Keeper since it was in the theaters.  We were’nt sure if it’d be worth a theater trip or if it was more of just a dvd movie.  So, we waited until it came out on DVD.
The other day, after we got our hair cut, we went [...]

I forgot to tell you that sis and I got haircutz the other day.  The salon was smart about it this time.  They took me first, and then had someone come get Emma.  They waited until I was 1/2 cut before they took her.  They knew I couldn’t get up and come supervise!  Kudos to [...]

Ephesians 5:4, “Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.”
Some other blogs I read are going to try to give a whole week of ‘thanks,’ according to the aforementioned scripture.  I have really thought about this.  I’m sad to say that even doing it for a day [...]

My guess is that this is probably me being ‘emo’.  However, I can’t get past a few things that have happened recently — or that have not happened.  I’m so sad.

I woke up this morning and realized that it’s quite possible that nobody gets me.

The other morning I woke up and proceeded to get the kids ready for school.  Once I got to Breyt’s school he says (in his most’est serious man tone), “Mom, I just got a call from the US Government, and they are after you.”
“What?  Why?  I didn’t do anything wrong.”
“That’s illegal.  You can’t do anything right.  Mom, [...]

The other day both kids were arguing like crazy.  I’ll admit it.  It was driving me nuts.  So I brought them both downstairs to have a serious talk with them.  I told them if they didn’t get along with each other than I wouldn’t give Breyt a ride to wrestling and Em would have to miss [...]

Apparently, Hi-Top Punky Brewster shoes are the in thing.  I’ve already written about them once, but I continue to see growing amounts of them on the street.  Were they featured by Oprah?
Speaking of…wouldn’t you just love to see Oprah in a pair of Hi-Top Punky Brewster  shoes?  I can see the headlines, “Oprah working from [...]

Dad…are you going to meet us in Atlanta??  Maybe we can get Laura Lou to cook us an early Thanksgiving dinner.  I think you and mom should crash at her apartment with us.  How fun would that be?   
We were going to stay at the Marriot, but she said she wanted us to chill at [...]

I just wrote and deleted TWO ranting Working from Home posts.  I won’t publish them because I don’t want to be mean.  Let me simply say that just because I’m working from my home office, doesn’t mean I’m not working, or that I have less responsibility than before.  Let me also add that noncompete agreements [...]

So I guess it’s true, I’m a liar.
I keep saying I’ll come back and update you with what’s going on in our lives.  There’s just no time!  …in a good way.
Breyton did lose his first tooth a few days ago.  He got $4 from the tooth fairy.  Emma has to get braces.  Her top [...]
