Did I happen to mention that I have recently found my sewing machine again and I am LOVING it? I forgot how therapeutic it is for me to sew. I just adore the construction and the process of creating with fabric…combining the colors and the textures into items we use.
I know…I should be [...]

I have a good friend who is Amish. I have learned so much from here and I continues to amaze me how much we have in common. If I could imagine giving up my precious computer, I swear I could be Amish. Maybe in another life…
Anyway…one thing hubby and I considered this last winter is [...]

Well! Now that we know what we are having, the preparations begin in earnest. I have several sewing projects I want to start working on, as well as purchasing a few things here and there.

Unbelievably, we are considering changing our health insurance so we can deliver at the hospital we have always delivered at. While I feel comfortable with this hospital and the care we’ve always received there, changing doctors and insurance midway through a pregnancy is undaunting to say the least. A big part of me is resisting [...]

Can you believe it? Today marks halfway through my pregnancy. I, myself, can hardly believe that I have 20 weeks behind me already. It has completely flown by.
Time to put on the work gloves, roll up my sleeves and get ready for this baby. It is going to be a busy 20 weeks ahead [...]

Sarah has an extra-curricular concert she has been chosen to participate in tomorrow afternoon. Her band teacher selected Sarah and several other students to go to a local nursing home and perform for the residents. Not only is this an honor, but it is an excellent learning experience for the kids. I can tell Sarah [...]

Do you ever wonder how you juggle it all? I find myself wondering that quite a bit. Oh…for a second or two to contemplate things such as hair loss cures…SORRY HUBBY!…instead of carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders (or so it seems.

Hubby and I celebrated 20 years of marital bliss (well…MOSTLY!) on Friday. We celebrated quietly because we are boring people…but that was fine with us. Good meal…TWO bouquets of flowers (one long-stemmed roses)…and our healthy brood there for us to enjoy.
I’d say we’ve done pretty well for ourselves over the last twenty years. Eight kids [...]
