Tuesday, I don’t remember. Wednesday, I know I went to church that night but the only part of the day I remember well is when Ivan fell down the stairs. Thursday, I got some cleaning done but saved most of it for about four hours on Friday. Yesterday,…

I woke up so out of it this morning I thought it was Sunday again. I slept pretty hard, and felt exhausted most of the morning. I think that (beyond pregnancy) the cloudy sky and threatening clouds had a lot to do with it. I was able to get ready and…

We are going to the zoo today. Mincy and I are taking our youngin’s and heading to the little zoo that could in Nashville’s least likely district to house such a wonder. Who would think you could get away from it all after driving through Nolensville R…

I went to Walmart, put gas in the van, cleaned the kitchen and the bathroom, straightened things up, made a yummy beef stew, made pb&j for the boys then put them to bed and fed my lunch guests Brent and Henry. B and H came by to work on the program…

Okay…I think we’ve seen the last of the stomach bug. Ivan had it, then Kris and I each had some version of it. Kris’ version being the less lovely to describe. One long night in the bathroom and a full day in bed later, he is back to his happy go lu…

I should probably write at least a little something about the seminar I was so consumed with. Once it was over it seemed that my hands and thoughts were so free I sort of dropped it completely. It did go very well and thank you to all of you who prayed…
