We’re leaving for Michigan from South Carolina in 90 minutes. I might still harm my mother-in-law because she WILL NOT SHUT UP! Also, we won’t let her drive anymore.

The weather in my heart this afternoon was bleak, but a series of events not under my own control led to unbelievable sunshine.
1. My Aunt Laurel called and asked us to pick up a batch of cookies from her home before we went to my folks’ for Easter Dinner/ Rob’s birthday. We got there and [...]

Three days on. One day off. One day on. One day off.
Start over again.
The second day off is Christmas.
I can’t begin to say how wonderfully lovely the atmosphere has been lately at work. I mean that with my whole heart; no sarcasm here. It’s been stressful because of the photolab not working, and stressful because [...]

I decided back in September that I’d sing and play a song for Christmas at Church. Apparently I posted O Come O Come Emmanuel a year ago in anticipation of Christmas. And I’m reposting this year, with the decided difference that it’s ME playing and singing.
It’s rough, and I was in my Pajamas, so please [...]

At Best Buy, apparently they only hire 14-year-olds anymore. Or maybe it’s that I’ll be 35 next month and all the college kids working at Best Buy are looking awfully young to me.
I was supposed to have yesterday off for Vacation, to get my cards and shopping finished. But the Photo Lab malfunctioned and I [...]

I’m up and awake. It’s nearly midnight and I am on a mission.
My mom is retiring at the end of this month and I, LIKE A SILLY GOOSE, am throwing her a party the day before she would have had to go back to work, were she not retiring. That means January 5 is the [...]

It’s the last call for Christmas Cards.
If you would like to receive a Christmas Card from me, click the TALK TO ME link in the sidebar to send me your name and address.
Even if you have received a card from me in previous years, you still need to give me your address again.
Merry Christmastime!
Love,
Jayleigh

Last Friday, my parents held a party in honor of my sister Dotty being Home from California. I asked the my cousins to pose with me in Charlie’s Angels fashion, but we didn’t know that Willie would try to be our Bosley.

I just got back from planning my mom’s retirement party with Aunt Laurel and Aunt Liesl. I am going to scream.
Had I wanted to be railroaded into becoming a caterer, I’d have certainly asked for it. Me? I wanted something simple. A few friends, a few neighbors, a few co-workers.
NOT a huge blow-out.
My love for [...]

I think perhaps I do a post each year on fireflies. The above is actually just a table decoration imitating fireflies, but I thought it was pretty, so here it is to stay!
What a wonderful few days we’ve had. I worked so hard today, but it was good and kept my mind off of matters [...]

Mindy left a voice mail on my cell phone yesterday while I was at work and she knew the phone was off. I didn’t check it until today. She’s leaving and going back to her mom’s.
Rob and I let Mindy know when she moved in that it was a one-shot deal. She’s not bouncing in [...]

I am wound tight. My dear friend from Bible Study had her mom pass away yesterday. My mom’s dear friend’s mom passed away today. I was to visit with Trina and her daughters on Wednesday, after my nail appointment, but now I’ll be helping with a funeral dinner. I don’t have any time to myself [...]

Sunshiny Afternoon
March 2, 2007
What an amazing vacation so far! Yesterday, Marie and I began one of those fleece Tie Blankets, only we can’t just be normal. Jessie Lynn will probably be attending University of SC next year, and Marie wanted to use red camouflage fabric on one side and USC fabric on the other- only [...]

Going Home
We’re now at Marie & Ken’s house, and had just a great time getting here. We always feel like this is HOME to us, because they are the best hosts ever, and let us just practically move in. Yesterday morning, we stopped off at the Fenton Art Glass Company and spent nearly two hours [...]
