Ok – I admit that this is off topic. But I can’t seem to find enough time to get anything done when the weather is nice – it’s just too much fun being outside! Today, for example, I took my son to a dairy farm. We’re reading about cows this week (more about that later), so I thought it might be nice if he could see them in person instead of just as pictures in books. Plus, he should know that the couple of gallons of milk he consumes each week doesn’t magically appear in the carton! So off...
About Us
Setting goals for April
I feel like February and March kind of flew by. I know that I have been sick, but I also feel like I have been busy. The problem is that I am not sure exactly what I was busy with. There’s all the daily things that have to do with life in general, but this is the first time in awhile where the fruits of my labor are not really tangible. This is why I’ve decided that it is time to set some general goals for April. It’s going to be more like a long list, but I...
I think I need to change my sleeping habits
Ok – I know this is kind of off-topic, but please bear with me for a moment. I am a fairly healthy person – I eat well (with the exception of the occasional Oreo!), exercise to some extent (honestly, not as much in the winter, but that always changes in the spring), and maintain a healthy weight (I could probably stand to gain some weight, but have always had high metabolism). I was sick last week – just a minor cold, but enough to prevent me from posting a lot. I felt better by Friday. By Sunday night, I...
Happy Easter!
Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Easter. I hope that you can find as much to be thankful for as I am – family, friends, a roof over your head, etc. We’ve “hidden” a couple of eggs while the kid is napping – I can’t wait to see how he is this year!
I’m back, I think…
I’m looking at the calendar, and it says 10 March. I’m not really sure where the time went, except that I spent a lot of it asleep. I think that my absence has said enough about my recent bout with the flu, so I’ll leave it at that, except to say that I hope that’s all the flu season has in store for me (and has nothing in store for you)! So now I’m back, and presented with quite a list of things to do. I’ve got taxes to tackle, and I need to get another form of income...
I’ve got one heck of a flu bug!
Wow! I’m usually a sick-for-a-day-or-two kind of gal, but this bug has given me a run for my money. I’ve been to the doctor (yep, it’s the flu!), my husband and son are on Tamiflu, and my husband actually had to stay at home to watch the kid on Tuesday. I was able to make it from the bed to the couch today, but that’s been the extent of my travels. I just wanted to stop by and thank those who sent me “get well soon” wishes – I really appreciate it and am working on it! Also, this...
Sorry – sick again!
This one came out of nowhere! As soon as I feel better, I’ll be posting again. In the meantime, I won’t be dropping quite as many Entrecards, and I apologize to people whose Project Wonderful requests I missed over the weekend (but I should be able to keep up now). I hope everyone is doing well – be back soon!
Time to buy plane tickets for Thanksgiving?
Our family is taking our first real vacation since 2004 – now that our son is 2, it is time for him to begin to see the world (we’ll start with the USA). We have close friends that live in Arizona, a state which neither my husband nor I have seen. These friends are getting ready to return back east in another year or two, and have been wanting us to visit. The time seemed right for us to plan a trip. We thought that sometime around Thanksgiving would be a good time, and our friends have been looking...
I’ll be back on Tuesday
Sorry for the lack of posts – a family situation took us out of state, and we’ll be back tomorrow evening. Be back soon!
Why I love Wednesdays
Yesterday was Wednesday, which is my favorite day of the week. This is the day my son and I travel to a parent-child program, where he gets to play with other kids, make crafts, and cook snacks. I really like this program – the other parents are really nice and my son really enjoys it. The only bad thing is that it is about an hour away. My son always falls asleep on the ride home. This used to be an issue; after arriving home, I would try to gingerly get him into his bedroom to continue napping, which...
