Blogging
Posted in All About Mindy, Family Life, Reflection on November 8, 2010
I’m blogging. I make no promises regarding this post…none at all. Blogging has taken a back seat to the rest of my life over the past three months. For those of you who have been chomping at the bit (HA) waiting for a post, I apologize. Truly. Today is about biting the bullet and getting […]
Biting the Bullet
Posted in Uncategorized on September 18, 2010
Here’s the thing. It’s been a month since I last posted. I have to write something. Not because anybody else needs to hear anything from me, because, frankly…I have nothing earth shattering to say…but because…I have to do it. The thing is, it’s not so much mental block as it is…stubborn refusal to sit down […]
I know.

I know exactly how she feels right now. Exactly. I remember the thoughts that went through my head as I lay on my bed, sobbing into my pillow. He is so mean. He’s trying to ruin my life. He doesn’t want me to have any friends. That way, he doesn’t have to worry about where […]
Shaking my head

Today we will do something I knew would happen. I will admit I expected it would happen sooner than this…but…it sort of did. 😉 Today, the girls become roommates again. While searching for houses last summer the girls absolutely insisted that they wanted their own bedrooms. They understood early in the process that if we […]

Outside my window…it is already 93, with the promise of about 96. These are the days I can’t explain how grateful I am for air conditioning. I am thinking… that my parents should live much closer. and be here much more often. I am thankful for… weekends which allow me to mellow, and sleep, and work out, and […]
Having a rough day?
Posted in Life on July 1, 2010
Go here:nienie dialogues Yesterday, I needed sunshine. Today, this gives me perspective. My rough day seems…so much more tolerable when I realize how much rougher it could be.
Things to be glad about…

Do you remember Pollyanna? I watched that movie so many times as a young teen…probably because for the two years we lived in Allentown, we actually had Disney channel, and it played constantly…and we didn’t exactly get out to the movies very often while Dad was in college. I remember thinking how I could see […]

Outside my window…it’s dark and dreary out there, but we need the rain, and i’m hoping for thunderstorms. the turning-brown lawn is making Seth crazy. I am thinking… that i should put off less and plan ahead more.I am thankful for… air. conditioning.I am wearing… white t-shirt, fun, floral-print summery skirt..I am remembering… how simple (and busy) life was when […]
Swim Meet
Posted in Kids on June 25, 2010
So proud of Reasa and Bryson tonight. Despite only ever swimming in something other than our back yard pool (or someone else’s) and only ever having done a formal stroke (or 4) within the past three weeks of their lives, they both dove in and swam their little hearts out tonight in their first swim […]
Grateful
Posted in Reflection on June 24, 2010
I have spent the past two weeks or so extraordinarily stressed out. To the point where I have definitely not been a peach to live with. That fact has stressed me out even more than the actual sources of stress, and has caused me to be even less of a peach to live with. This […]
