Getting back to nOrMaL

The cold is now in my throat and chest, yep it is migrating.
Yesterday I could not really talk, it was more of a Barry White mixed with the Chipmonks (ya know Alvin, Simon, and Theodore) with a bit of wheeze/squeak thrown in.
Every time I tried to talk to the hubster, I think I scared him while [...]

I am down, call the ER

Sorry I have been away, but illness visited the ol homestead over the weekend. And I was the idiot who anwered the door.
So now I am bed-confined with some sort of head cold/sinus infection/coughing thing. Nathan has become my massage therapist by rubbing my head all the time.
And all I can do is bark and [...]

It’s Monday… and really I am so done.

Chaos runs rampant.
As a typical Monday I had 26 hours worth of stuff to cram into 14 hours, because I really need my sleep. This exhaustion that I have been dealing with for the last few weeks, I still have not gotten rid of it yet. Some days are better than others, but overall I [...]

It was the Ying and Yang of intellegence.

Yesterday during the hours of waiting to hear how Jaiden was doing (thanks for the updates Dawn!) I broke away from the laptop to head on down to Nathan’s school for the awards ceremony. I had been asking Nathan for days if he knew if he was receiving one, but the best answer I got [...]

Echo took her to her regular doctor where they discovered that [...]

Like I mentioned, there are alot of irons in the fire in this household. So much is filling our family dry-erase board calendar. Taking it all one day at a time just doesn’t work.
So far this is what we have coming up in just the next few weeks:

Nathan’s award ceremony
Photographs for Tracie’s kids
Thanksgiving
Completing a major [...]

Where is my pillow???

I don’t know what is wrong with me lately. Exhaustion does not even begin to describe how I have felt over the last couple of weeks. I can be just doing my normal thing and WHAMMO! I just fall on the couch and lay there.
Seriously the house could catch on fire, and yet I would feel [...]

What to blog…what to blog

Honestly y’all, I got nothing.
The weekend and holiday was a whirlwind of the typical (homework, laundry, grocery shopping, yelling at the dog, you get the picture, right?)
Yesterday I could have kicked myself. I went to my Income Tax class and found out that last Wednesday, when I decided to skip class because I was not feeling [...]

The Dreaded List…

Christmas list that is.
Now don’t get me wrong, I simply ADORE Christmas. I love decorating, praying for snow, and eating turkey, stuffing, and greenbean casserole until I am laid out on the living room floor like a beached whale like I did last year……

But what do I hate most? Yes, that darn “What I want [...]

Works for me Wednesday, backwards!

Yet again it is time to share the blessing that I call “Works for Me Wednesday” over at Shannon’s site. That would be Rocks in my Dryer over there in my Blogroll
But since it is the backwards version this week, instead of answering a question, we get to ask!
So here is my dilemma. Our beloved [...]
