Homemade Honey Lemon Cough Syrup

March 6, 2013

Look at me, with all the posting this week! Why do I suddenly have time to write stuff, you might ask? Well, it’s mainly because I have 3 children, all suffering from various degrees of illness, sprawled out on the sofa and in recliners, and they want me to sit in the living room with [...]

Veggie Tales – The Little House That Stood *Free Coloring Pages and a Giveaway!*

Our family LOVES Veggie Tales. In fact, when Bee was 3 years old she was such a huge fan that we had a Veggie Tales theme birthday party for her. Bee was so obsessed with the Veggies that one morning, while on the road for an appraisal, my husband stopped by a roadside vegetable stand [...]

Laundry Room Progress

March 4, 2013

The kids and I got flu shots back in January, but the children all got sick last week anyway (not me….yet. I’m sure it’s only a matter of time). Fortunately, the illness was mild for both Bee and DJ, who didn’t even spike fevers, but poor little Cakes had a fairly high fever that lasted [...]

I think for stay-at-home mothers, who spend a great deal of time staring at the same four walls, change is particularly important, and especially appreciated. Yesterday, I was very depressed. I learned yesterday morning that our credit card number was stolen, [...]

Weekly News Digest – February 25, 2013

February 25, 2013

* Old habits die hard. Instead of doing my paperwork in my office, as expected, I still spread it out on the coffee table. I think it’s because I find it so unpleasant that I prefer to do it in front of the TV so I have some distraction, and also because my husband polished [...]

The Girls’ New Rooms, and My New Office!

February 18, 2013

This is what the girls’ rooms looked like on Friday afternoon, with the curtains and carpet in place: I let them pick out their own curtains, and after looking at various stores, they decided on these crushed ombre curtains from Wal-Mart. I’m not generally a fan of Wal-Mart, but I’m actually quite pleased with these. [...]
