Don't put that in your mouth! You have no idea where it's been!

That's what I feel like after a couple weeks of no blog. I am missing in action and out for lunch, or any other cliche for that matter.

Things here are as great as can be. Well, I am sure they could be better, but I wont dwell on that.

I am in a perpetual state of undone laundry. We went to Parker on the 6th and all the back up from the camping trip messed things all up. I am constantly looking at a pile of clean unfolded clothes on my chair, waiting to be strewn all over the place. Which happens often, and to my dismay ends up unworn and in the dirty clothes pile because the dog has taken a liking to lying on it. I suppose I could just shake of the MASSIVE HAIR from his shedding body, but heh, that would be a lot of shaking.


Isaac has cut his first tooth while we were camping. I wouldn't have noticed except for the tooth coming out of his gum for all the kid fussed. Which was not at all. I wonder if this kid is going to be this easy going for the rest of his life!


Olivia has taken the hobby of screaming to a new level. Man that girl has some capacity! She is loud and long and if I didn't know better, I would think her arm had been chewed off by rabid wolfs. I need to harness that voice for singing, right? Besides that hobby she has taken to counting to 13, sounding out letters, and helping pick up dog poop. A screaming pooper scooper.


Lets see, what is Ian up to? This kid is doing so much, so quickly, that my head spins trying to keep up. The things that come out of his mouth floor me. Kids indeed say the darnedest things. What those are I cannot remember, but trust me, they are good! I have been working on math, reading and sounds in general, but mostly he has been striving to WRESTLE WITH HIS BROTHER! They both love it, but as with anything it can get out of hand quickly. I guess Isaac gets tired of pinning Ian down.


Mostly days go by and things are the same, but there are some great moment to be had, and when they do I cant remember enough to blog about them. I wonder if that is a side effect to motherhood.


Right. Until then.

FOR TODAY Jan 19, 2008


Outside my window...I cannot post during the day, I have not the time, so therefore it is dark.




I am thinking...So many things ranging from here to there. I think crazy things will be happening and no one will know better.


I am thankful for...Being able to worship freely and for my house. I am glad I have a roof over my head.


From the kitchen... Would you believe it? all the dishes are washed and there are cookies waiting to be baked.


I am wearing...Uh, hmmm, just what is this I am wearing? Could it be the SAME THING I HAD ON LAST TIME! ? ! Seriously, I am pathetic.


I am creating...so humbling, nothing. Well, cookies in a few.


I am going...tomorrow to Bashas and getting some bread for .50 cents to be put in the freezer, and albertsons to get some other nonsense. What ever.




I am reading...Romans, and the makers diet. So not reading much.


I am hoping...to get some good sleep. I am exhausted at the thought of driving to town tomorrow.


I am hearing...Olivia is fond of screaming.


.Around the house...things are quiet, because all the action is now in here.


One of my favorite things... a basil plant that is doing very well thankyouverynuch.


A few plans for the rest of the week:I am laughing hysterically at the this right now.


Here is picture thought I am sharing...

FOR TODAY January 12, 2009

Outside my window... A dark evening, again.

I am thinking...that I would love to feel better. I have a monster headache from a sort of cold. Kefir is helping keep it from being full blown.

I am thankful for... My Husband again. I am so proud he want to provide for us. I am also thankful for my salvation, it gives me a great peace in these uncertain times.

From the kitchen... ack, the kitchen. I have dishes calling me, otherwise I am ignoring it.

I am wearing...Sweat shorts (shame on me) and the same dingy old shirt. I claim not feeling well.

I am creating...more laundry? Nothing at the moment.

I am going...to have a steamy shower, then to bed, hopefully...

I am reading...I am reading the book of Romans. It will take me some time, as it is a lot to absorb.

I am hoping...that I will train these children well. Enough said.

I am hearing... children's Bible songs, thanks to Etner's Gma. We love em.

Around the house...It seems mostly tidy, with clean laundry to fold, as always.

One of my favorite things...Kefir

A few plans for the rest of the week: Organise the kids room, and the computer room closet. If this happens I will be thrilled.

I'm supposed to be doing, uh, taxes.

But I can't, I have something on my brain.

Can I be specific?

No.

I am in somewhat of a sensitive state of mind, very perceptive and looking for an intervention of some sort to clear my mind.

God is not the God of confusion.

There is a smell taste in the air that has me thinking, and praying, and crying and laughing.

No, I am not pregnant again.

What I am, though, is seeking.

Seek and ye shall find.

Do I have the answer already? Is it very clear, clear as mud.

God is good.

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and commeth down, from the father of light.

You wanna a piece of me?

Someone was complaining that I was neglecting my blog. I wont mention any names but she (oops) is right I am neglecting this thing.
Top ten reasons why I am not blogging;

1. I am torn about a subject, or two, and cannot articulate a sentience.

2. I am up to my neck in laundry.

3. I am up to my neck in dirty diapers, maybe that's what that smell is.

4. I am striving to keep a picked up and clean house.

5. I cant type without many cups of coffee, or tea, or anything like that.

6. It's the most wonderful time of the year!

7. I cant believe I have to come up with ten!

8. I have to deck the halls.

9. I just realised I did this backwards, therefore proving I am incapable of thinking straight.

and the number one, I mean ten reason I have been neglecting my blog is (drum roll please)
