I’m 3/4 the way through Emma, by Jane Austen.
The movie, starring Gwyneth Paltrow will be on PBS the evening of March 23, btw.
In it, most of the nicer homes have names, such as Emma Woodhouse’s “Hartfield,” Mr. Knightley’s “Donwell Abbey,” and Mr. & Mrs. Weston’s “Randalls.”
I so love the idea of naming homes. Even on [...]

Actually, I haven’t been having the side-effects this time. Thank you, God!
I did shout at Rob yesterday, in front of my mom. Yeah I know that was bad, but immediately after that I said, “I am sorry. I’m not actually mad. I don’t quite know where that came from.”
So far, it’s kept him from having [...]

Tomorrow begins my Clomid treatment. I am so excited and scared and nervous and happy. I just know this will work. But what if it doesn’t? What if I go nuts again?
God says, “I am with you, my daughter.”
Tomorrow is the first official day of Rob’s and my vacation. It’s only through Wednesday, but still, [...]

The party is done. I think we should have only gotten 20 pounds of ribs, or else invited all the people I was thinking about inviting, but didn’t because I thought we were going to have too big a crowd.
God is so awesome for blessing us with friends and family. But the big hit of [...]

Nostalgia
7:00 AM - The doggies have been doing their pee-pee dance for 15 minutes. I took them outside. I even put shorts and shoes on this time (instead of barefoot in my robe). The back of our property by the pines is their preferred waste disposal area. Fine with me, except I was dizzy from [...]

Go at LEAST skim through the last post.
OK my heart is BURSTING with joy right now. I know what the deal is, it's GOD. He's awesome. He's my best friend and He loves me. When I was a kid, I'd tell my mom that I "loved her to pieces and back together again." God loves [...]

God is so awesome, Friends. These two little girls are proof of that. Whomever chooses NOT to believe in God our Father, need only look as far as Lauren (in the striped shirt). Her being alive is the biggest miracle I have ever witnessed in my life. She was born at a little over 6 [...]

Yesterday when I got home from work, I spied in Rob's hand a little green piece of paper. A sticker, really. I came in and tossed my bag in a chair, took care of my coat, kicked off my shoes, and headed straight into his open arms. I buried my head in my husband's shoulder [...]

TRIM
Rob's b-i-l, Ken is amazing. He's working so hard on our addition with Rob. The trim is all but finished… and finished enough, thankyouverymuch, to be able to get the final inspection done next week. Then all we have to do is put cap molding and shoe molding on the baseboards, then crown moldings at [...]

I really like it. Rob is amazing for picking out EXACTLY what I wanted even when I wasn’t with him.
The next one is not trick photography. It’s fer realz. Yoga can do that to a body… though I haven’t practiced with regularity in years, my body remembers some things.

Rob preached this morning, so I had to teach Sunday School by myself. Let me rephrase that… I GOT to teach Sunday School by myself. Samantha and Johnathan (brother and sister) were the only two to show up this week, which was fine by me. I love these two kids and it’s as much fun [...]

“Noodle in lung” Are you really searching this term every day to find ME?
Whomever searched on “naughty things to do for a birthday” needs to get their [...]

Please don’t read this. I really don’t want you to do it.
It’s because what I’m about to say is potentially very embarassing to me. What already?!?!
I don’t feel like working out today. I am in my grey stretch pants, Michigan State basketball shirt (that I slept in) which is two sizes too big, bare feet [...]

Hopefully I will remember to take pictures today of the drywalling that happened yesterday.
Rob’s brother-in-law, Billy came over and worked tirelessly. He’s awesome!
More later.
