Gobsmacked at the effort of it all

So here it is.   The one that I’ve been thinking about.  I’ve had a miserable couple of weeks, my brain keeps going over things, and I can’t stop thinking about it.   We have been having an issue with violence in Elijah, so you might see how I couldn’t just put out in the world [...]

No time to note time

Like all of you I would like more hours in the day, or more hours of sleep.  Unfortunately one is sacrificed at the expense of the other.  I can stay up late get the living room vacuumed, read the book that takes way to many brain cells (quick no googling what does the hypothalamus do?) [...]

About me

I want to reply to Shaun’s comment from In Reply, but it’s too heavy tonight, and it requires too much thinking.  So instead I worked on improving my blog, I created categories, I’m going to add to the menu, and I finally wrote something in the about me section. Yes, it had been empty until [...]

In Reply

Since I lost tonight’s blog post, and since my reply to Shaun is quite long and really could use some formatting I’m going to post it as it’s own entry, so in order for this post to make sense please read this one What If It’s Not , and in the interest of keeping you [...]

lost

I completed my post for tonight, and then it was lost.

What if it’s not?

I bet you can complete this phase thousand of pregnant couples have likely uttered today alone.  It doesn’t matter if it’s a boy or a girl as long as it’s________.  But what if you get the gender you were secretly hoping for, but not a healthy baby. What if you don’t find out that your [...]

In a couple of days

In a couple of days I’m going to sift through all the mud in my head and write a really cathartic post about what’s going on around here.  That isn’t meant to be some sort of cliff hanger remark, I really can’t even begin with out giving you most of the details, at least not [...]

in, out, in, out a lesson in breathing

I’m exhausted, things are crazy here.  We’ve been trying to combat a behavior with E and were just getting into the thick of it now.  It’s been excruciating, trying to get in to a specialist, that some referring doctors don’t want to help you get in to see (or rather non referring doctors).  I’ve had [...]

Home(stead), Sweet, Home(stead)

The last few days have been garden intensive.  Friday I dug up potatoes, and cut and processed swiss chard to freeze.   Saturday I dug up potatoes, pulled up onions, and weeded.  Today (Sunday) I braided onions for storage, collected the potatoes that were drying in the dirt, gathered the Zucchini and Summer squash that were [...]

A place for everything

and nothing in it’s place.  Growing up I was very disorganized my locker and my desk always were the worst in the class, I got dressed from the pile of clothes on the floor, seriously I was a pig.  When I moved out on my own things got better, but we always lived in some [...]
