So I just got back from a long road trip that started on Tuesday. I was in the car for about 11-12 hours in total. From here to Louisville to Nashville back to Louisville and now home. To pass the time, I checked out a few books on CD from the library. If I could
So now-a-days my van is more like an RV…we could probably live out of it due to the supplies you’ll find inside. Here’s my Top Ten for the week – a list of what you will find in the mini on any given day: Food. I have a stash of kid-friendly and mommy-friendly items in one
I took part in our Neighborhood Garage Sale this past weekend. This was probably my fourth or fifth garage sale. Here is what I have learned from the repeated experience: If you do it to make a lot of money, ha! There are better ways to make some extra cash. I totaled about $150 for
Last night was our annual “Dinner That Would Kill Your Kids” dinner. We have a few friends that have a child who is allergic to peanuts/nuts in their families. And we’re talking serious allergies. Completely peanut-free homes. That’s a lot of love for a kid. Andy and I are so fortunate that our kids (so
It’s been a mentally draining week at work and home (all good things!). Yesterday I received a package from a dear friend.

So tomorrow I get to head south for an overnight bright and early. The “bus” leaves at 6 AM. I have to travel to Knoxville, TN for work…facilitating a training workshop on competencies Monday afternoon and then repeating it Tuesday morning before returning home. I’m a planner…and want to make use of my time away.
This afternoon at Costco I spied something SPECTACULAR: Bicycle Jammies! I mean, seriously, check out those baby boy pj bottoms: And in the cart they immediately went. See, I’m a SUCKER for bicycles. LOVE promoting them in any way possible. Check out the newest t-shirts I bought myself: And this shirt I found on clearance awhile
Blog Challenge Day 30: Share a picture The Flying Pig 10K was this morning and I finished it! YAY! And this Blog Challenge is OVER…double YAY!!!
Wish #1 – No more Blog Challenge! No, I assume if I really did get 3 Wishes, I’d ask for things for my children – health, happiness, children of their own, long lives, travels, good jobs, etc. Or things to better the world – help for the tornado devastation in Alabama, feed the poor, house
Blog Challenge Day 28: What’s something that stresses you out? Other than this blog challenge? Ummmmmm…CLUTTER and disorganization. I know, hard to believe from a woman whose dining room still looks like THIS most days. I think I have just blocked that room out of my mind. I pretend it is a LARGE closet and has
