A few weeks ago I had signed up to go here for a yoga basics workshop. I had been to one in March and was so looking forward to returning. It is a real treat for me to go b/c of the cost and the gas to get there.
So why I kept trying to find [...]

Yummy
Well, no excuse for not blogging. Other than I get in here – start reading my fav blogs, searching for other fav blogs, and I essentially, get “blogged” down! HA! So it’s my bed time and I toddle off without having written.
These past few weeks I’ve been working hard at working with a grocery budget. [...]

If you’ve never used a chain saw…
We certainly faired well from Hurricane Ike, with the most inconvenience being electricity lost for about 20 hours. Yard clean-up seemed fairly easy for Dad and the boys this AM – looks like we never had all that tree debris in our yard (we have not trees…). However, on my “to buy” list in the [...]

Movie Day
Last night SW and I went searching for a battery-powered lantern, just incase we lose power. That is so like me – last minute! Nothing on the shelves at Walmart and no luck at Academy either. We’re stuck if they go out. Praying I can make it fun if it happens!
So, since I didn’t spend [...]

The joy of reading
It started sometime last week. Since I was into reading Comfort Food, I would sit in my chair and curl up with my book after dinner. No tv on. So then the boys would play, but then sometimes they would grab a book and look at it. Sometimes I would stop and read to them. [...]

Food, Kids and Reading
So what have I been up to these past few days without blogging? Well, I’ll hit the highlights in a nutshell, adding a few funnies along the way.
I’ve tried at least 5 new recipes this week. The first was Asian Fried Rice. We love Chinese food and have been die-hard Magic China fans since we [...]

Balance
Over many years I’ve been taking a trip to “balance.” You know, realizing you can’t do it all. And ALL constitutes many different things.
So I’m reading Comfort Food by Kate Jacobs. A great read. I enjoy books that talk about food and give me recipe ideas – and even better when the recipes are included [...]

Funny translation
I’m a recovering perfectionist/control freak/worrier. And since having kids, I’ve really had to back off of those 3 things lest we become consumed by it! So the other day we were heading off to the library and I had asked Sammy to go put on a clean shirt. So he digs into the mess he’s [...]

goodday
Well, I left my Thursday blog with Sammy visiting his MeMe on Friday and Sawyer Wayne and I getting into very little. That’s exactly what we did. Sammy and I finished chores yesterday morning and headed for his adventures with MeMe.
SW and I went to Synergy Park (now it has a sign that says “Elder [...]

First meeting and other things
Apparently 5:50am is my designated wake-up time as of late. I’m choosing to get up and get going without getting an attitude about it! Sawyer has been sleeping through the night (until about this time…), so that is most helpful. However, this AM he didn’t go back to sleep and Sammy was “wide eyed and [...]
