Today I had my annual mammogram–this one was digital. I must say it was the MOST comfortable one I’ve ever had. It was a very pleasant surprise! So then I went to work feeling pretty good about the whole thing. But then I found out I had a major problem with some paperwork which is […]
Christian Culture
We had a mix of weather today…light rain, temps in low 30’s, then a little warmer, and messy thawing. The rest of the week it’s supposed to be COLD. Jon has been in the house tonight since 7:30 instead of in the garage. We’re just about ready for the rest of the insulation, and then […]
More Construction
For all of you who drive by my house on a regular basis…yes, something is going on. The outside of our building project hasn’t changed in a while, but good things are happening inside this week. Soffit vents were installed, and today sheetrock is being put up in the ceiling of the garage/shop area. Insulation […]
A Few of My Favorite Things
Logan hasn’t run away for over 48 hours!!! Of course every time she goes outside she bumps her nose into that gate to see if it will open. I guess she’s not entirely stupid…just very persistent. We’ll see if we can hold up our end. That sounds bad at our age….. Moving on, I had […]
Dan and Logan
We’re watching “Dan in Real Life” again….laugh, laugh, laugh out loud!!! Ruthie Pigface Draper. Jon can’t sleep in his chair because I’m laughing too loud. This little piggy…Ruthie Pigface Draper. TOO MUCH FUN!!! Logan is insane. She ran away again this morning. Was caught by our neighbor as she was walking down Chatburn Ave pretty […]
Wonder Dog
Logan is an adventurer. She doesn’t look like one. She doesn’t act like one. But if she sees a rabbit she TRANSFORMS into Wonder Dog. We think she saw a rabbit Tuesday afternoon while she was enjoying the sunny afternoon. When Jon got home after work the gates looked closed but there was no Logan. […]
It’s a Wonderful Life
The classic movie is a Christmas favorite, and after this Christmas I have an idea how George Bailey must have felt. I received four wonderful photo books from the kids and a grandma sweatshirt that make me feel like my life has counted by contributing to some pretty awesome people…namely the best husband, three beautiful […]
Doors and Window
More done…wrapping is done (except for one I can’t finish), made caramel corn and cheese ball tonight. Tomorrow Kelli will be on the road, and I’ll make oyster cracker snack tomorrow night. I need to go get more groceries tomorrow, too. I work on Thursday, but have Friday off. That is the day I’ll make […]
More Getting Ready
After going out for supper on Friday night, I did a lot of work getting ready for Christmas this weekend. Besides the usual laundry and cleaning, I baked cinnamon rolls, dinner buns, made chocolate bark, wrapped more gifts, got a ton of groceries, went to church, went to a visitation, went to 2 basketball games, […]
Blizzard
Okay, I’m here again. This weekend was supposed to be really busy. We were going to go to Tre’s basketball game on Saturday morning and to my work Christmas party that evening. We were also planning to drive to Muscatine on Sunday. With only two weeks till Christmas I REALLY had a lot to get […]
