While at Costco today, I saw a book that had a title that made me think. “An Eight-Cow Woman Deserves an Eight-Cow Man.” I flipped through it for a moment and decided to buy it. I came home and immediately […]
I found this article on Yahoo! and thought that it was interesting. I will comment on it later. Think your Mr. Next has the potential to be Mr. Right? Before you leap without looking, take an honest inventory. See how […]
We hit 9 years a couple of weeks ago. I was hoping to avoid all of it. However, I do know H very well and I know that he doesn’t do much but, he really plays up anniversaries, Christmas and […]
Although there are a lot of things that I have to catch up on, and I really do want to make sure that I get everything covered, I also have to try to chronicle things as they are happening. Even […]
With having so much come into play and having so many things line up in order for me, I don’t know how I can deny the hand of the Lord in all of this. I really can’t. I finally decided […]
I finally decided to humble myself and talk to the counselor that the bishop had asked me to see. The bishop did mention that he wanted me to sign a waiver stating that the therapist could call him and talk […]
After I finally pulled myself together, I became calm and collected and looked at all of the things that I needed to do. While going through my depression and my anguish, I became very complacent in my marriage and put […]
It was during this struggle that I got a message from my mission president asking if I was offended by his comments because I had not responded to his letter. The truth is that I wanted to respond but, life […]
I know that it has been two months since I wrote down anything here. I have been avoiding it. I needed some time to get through a lot of things and writing down every single incident has turned me into […]
This work of art was created by…… my 28 year old sis. Ha! You all thought that it was Bear didn’t you! Nope. This is what happens when you mix a bored aunt, a toad and a red PERMANENT marker.
A few months ago, my sister invited me to go on a bit of a road trip with her to St. George. She had to speak at an art conference and thought that it might be a bit of a […]
I have a friend who loves randomness. She finds joy in the common and unnoticed. She is constantly making me chuckle. The other day she was posed with the question by her sister “What do you do, just walk around […]
We got a Strawberry Shortcake video off of Netflix a few days ago and apparently it has made a huge impact on Toad. For the past two days, he has been asking for muffins. I didn’t even know that he […]
Why God Made Moms I got this in an email foward and laughed so hard, I had to share it…. Answers given by 2nd grade school children Why did God make mothers?1. She’s the only one who knows where the […]
On Saturday, my sister, my friend and I escaped for a little girl time and hit the Kohl’s big sale. I had a plan to get a new pair of shoes. I have decided over the past year or so […]
Yesterday was one of those days that you can’t believe really happened. It is where things go freakishly well and you have to stop and wonder if it a sign of the Apocalypse. The day started off with Nena getting […]
My dad shared this poem with me a few weeks ago. I thought that it was clever but, certainly wasn’t going to spread it around. Then, on Sunday, when I was teaching Relief Society, this poem just seemed to fit. […]
This interview with Toad took 29 takes and it was an hour past his bedtime. Poor thing was completely exhausted. We are trying to get some video valentines done for the grandparents and I think that Toad’s turn about wore […]
I saw this on the news this evening and wanted to share. This blog is absolutely the most heart wrenching that I have ever read. A mother, a GOOD mother, left her little boy in the bathtub alone and he […]
