I feel like little by little I’m slipping behind on laundry. Yesterday I washed a load of white clothes that are still in the washer. I can’t bear to dry them when I know I’ve still got two loads upstairs that need to be folded and put away. See, laun…

Tooth number three has made it’s appearance in Owen’s mouth. Once again he showed no signs of anything really bothering him except for three recent blow-outs in his diaper. Or should I say…out of his diaper. Two of these blow-outs, by the way, happe…

I like to follow lists each day. I have a list of things to do that I update at the end of each day for the following day. I have a list for each week and a list for the month and even a list for the year. I highlight what things are coming up and nee…

A new week! I’m looking forward to a fresh start on things today. I have a long list in my head of things that need to be done and I’m determined to take them on one at a time and not get stressed.

I don’t want the quilt in my bedroom. I’d rather have it downstairs…we’ll have to battle it out when we can actually afford to renovate that room.

I’m sure there’s a good solution and thankfully I won’t need that solution for some time…no worrie…

Maybe Tisra’s blog inspired me…I’m not sure, but I set up my quilt yesterday. I put it in the front room which is technically supposed to be a formal living room area. Since we don’t have a use for a formal living room it has been empty until we can…
