Bummed
I was deeply upset, that i set my alarm wrong
And missed prayer this morning
I know i will be blessed tremendously when i go
I am wondering what my day will hold
I did get a bit down in the prospects of trying to make
the alphabet blocks....
I made a few the other day, but did not like how
the colors turned out.
So then i thought I'd try to stain them
but the stain leaks under the vinyl
My next attempt will be to drimal out the letters
after staining them. But a lass i am not an owner of a drimmal (is that how you spell it?)
It wont even come close to the correct spelling on the spell check, oh well.
so i am feeling daunted by the alphabet blocks They seemed like such a
Brilliant idea,
alas i am feeling discouraged by the whole thing
and want to leave it and do something new......
but i know i should press through
Things I love
Being Adored
Kisses that smugged my glasses
3 Hour naps on Sunday afternoons, snuggled up close to my R.
staying up till midnight baking cinnamon rolls for tomorrows breakfast
Things i abhor
Not reading recipes right twice in a row....praying that the dough rises, cause I'm an idiot at times Children refusing to go to bed, even when I've given them chance after chance Dogs peeing and pooping in my house! I
NEED
a fenced in yard
I awoke this morning with an attitude of
not letting anything ruin my day
I've had a few ruined days over the
past few weeks.
( once again something i abhor )
But my day was not to be taken from me
I was determined to not let it be swept away by
Anger
Pride
or
even jealousy
WHY should I?
The Bible does tell me I'm an over-comer and that's JUST what i plan on doing.
For the most part i think i did succeed in this endeavor.
One of the high points in my day
when we arrived home from church, R. told the kids to change
and he took them to get the car washed
while i made a yummy lunch.
We ate, then watched spiderwicks chronicles, Then every last one of the
Korv's layed down to rest and ended up sleeping in
sweet sweet bliss for over 3 hours.
My only fault finding in this, is that since i slept my afternoon away, I am now
wide awake
at 12:44am
Hence why i baked cinnamon rolls. But also since it was so late i do believe
thats why i was having trouble with my recipe
and also the fact that i tend to write my recipes
on scraps of paper
thinking i'll remember how it goes, i decide to leave some of the instructions out.
maybe not the wisest of choices
They will rise and will be yummy in our tummys
I KNOW they will.
For the first time
I will be attending morning prayer at the church from 7am to 7:30am……
its the start to ME changing old habits and becoming the woman i know I am
Please i pray ,my alarm goes off
We have been having alarm issuse…..
the kind where the alarm we have is the worst in the WORLD and we both can sleep a good 30 mins
longer with it ringing.
So tomorrow we are buying a new one….No more putting it off
Why are there things in our lives that we seem to always put off
till the very last moment.
Like going to the dentist
washing clothes (only at times for me)
cleaning the toilets
No more.....i am determined to change.....no matter what
My life is new....
If i tend to write these type of things often, dont think
i am forgetting my purpose....believe me i am doing no such thing...
I am just the type of woman that needs constant reminders....a sticky note on
the forehead if you will.
Well i must bid you ado....i have 5 hours till i must awake and great
my
day anew...with a smile
and worship the God who created me very life!
Anew
There are so few words that’ll never grow old…Jesus…jesus
While Mommy Sleeps
Oh the glorious things that go on while mommy sleeps….
Ian ran himself a bath…….
Lennon and Ian poured themselves their own cereal, milk an d all
The dog pooped, Ian cleaned it up…..
Ian brought me all the items the dog chewed during the night…..
I am so thankful my children are good and let me sleep in….
what amazing children i have…..
& on a side note what an amazing wife i am!
I let R. sleep in till 11am
R. said to me ‘man when was the last time i got to sleep in like this’
My response….1985
Time well spent
the past 4 hours have flown by in a swirl of amazement….Never have i been so enthralled with my work before….its exciting and exhilarating to say the least. I am working on publishing a poetry book….so i have been designing the pages and putting them in order. I still need a ton more to even make the kind of book i want…so far i have about 26. Just being in the mode of this, has got my head all a jumbled with thoughts and feelings…i love it i know for sure i will have more on the way!
A good nite to all, i am off to bed a by
Can it get Any Better Than this
My amazing husband surprised me this morning by buying me Jakob Dylan’s new solo album and bringing it to me, before i was even out of bed this morning…he even put in in so i could listen to it in bed….WOW! What a fabulous c.d….i have loved this man since my oldest sister introduced me to the ‘Wallflowers’ years ago…..(am swooning as i write)
(yes Jessica i will make you a copy…(its that ok to say on here)

Summer Time
I have done more swimming this past week than we did all of last summer….its crazy
I love it though, it’s so nice to float on a raft and not worry to much that the kids are drowning. For the most part they do pretty good. Yesterday while swimming and Justin and jennas house, Adia swam to rudy from at least 5 feet away,4 or 5 times….she did very well. She’s getting close. She even jumped off the diving board with no floaty’s to rudy…..the swim up was a bit much for her, but it didnt slow her down any. I am very proud of Lennon this year, he normally takes him the whole time we swim just to get in the water, but this year he has been swimming all over the place, he finally feels that the floatys are going to hold him up. I am so glad, cause i have always felt bad for him, like he was not having that great of a time. and its so cute cause out of the blue he’ll say ‘Mom, i have so grave’ (brave) i love him so much.
and no i have no photos of any of our swimming days, cause i have been in the water the whole time. Maybe next time i will. On a side note i fried my thighs…hopfully it will be a nice tan in a few days.
