The Parents

Dear Dad,

The recalled piece of the play-scape came today. I got out your tools and started to work on it right away. I hope you don’t mind that I talk to you while I use your tools. They were so much a part of you I just feel like you are there watching me when I [...]

The Battle Rages On

I slowly step up into the room. The sign on the door marked confessional catches my glance, and for a minute a deep sense of despair tears through my body like the first drop on a megadeath roller coaster ride. What can I do, there is the computer right there, and beyond those few simple [...]

Severe Weather

This was a bad week for weather. I should learn to be more tuned into watching the weather channel or looking at weather.com because it always seems as if the inclement weather sneaks up on me. 

This past Friday the weather caught us off guard again while L and I were on a date night. We [...]

My Random Tuesday

I like Tuesdays. I like them because it seems the best day to just blurt stuff out and not worry about putting things into any logical order. I think that Keely over at the UnMom is to thank for allowing us this Tuesday freedom from order by coming up with her weekly Random Tuesday Thoughts.
1. [...]

Sick Little Girl

There should be a law. The law should say that kids in preschool have to wash their hands every 30 minutes. You might be able to guess why I would be an advocate for this new law, which sadly is not and will never be a real law. We are all sick again. It is [...]

Are You Sure This is Georgia?

As a chicken farmer I am always checking the weather. For the last couple of weeks I saw snow showing up in the weather forecast. After living in GA for a whole three years, yup that long, I have learned from experience that snow in the forecast means one of two things: either they are [...]

Randomocity

1. The funniest thing to the baby lately is “1 - 2 -3  SWEET POTATOES!!”
2. The funniest joke to T lately is” Why was the cat playing with the others? Because they were playing cat!” No, I don’t get it, but I guess it’s all in the delivery, over and over. Apparently if you keep [...]

If I Could Put Time in a Bottle…

Baby Q is just developing so quickly. It is amazing to watch her go from stage to stage. I barely remember T going through all those stages. Time goes so fast that you never really get a chance just to absorb what is happening to them developmentally. It makes me think of the old Jim [...]

Are You Kidding Me???

The bronchitis came back and my nose is stuffed up again. How am I supposed to run a farm if I am feeling deathly ill and can’t breathe. (Yup, still overly dramatic.) Seriously though, this is the same thing I just got over. We send T back to school for two days and BLAM! he [...]

A Week in Review

Being it is the New Year, and people usually do the Year in Review, and being that my memory isn’t very good, I decided to only write about the last week. And What a week it was. 
Monday: After so many sick days, and then Christmas I was finally able to get out to the chicken [...]
