Life musings

Now that I have reflected on last year, time to look forward to a new one! One of the big things I wanted to do last year was for us to get out more with the kids and to get […]

Grateful for…learning.  Kailan has been having an issue with studying his words.  He obviously didn’t look at them at all on the first week, which should be readily apparent.  We worked him most nights at dinner that next week.  I should […]

Grateful for walks with the kids and gettting some fresh air.  It was pretty fresh as the wind was picking up and blowing in a snowstorm.  Thusly…it was a short walk. Grateful for a hubby that buys me a new […]

Grateful that we could have a nice Valentine’s Day dinner, though it was just at home.  I made pan seared tuna with a balsamic/white wine glaze, creamy baked hashbrowns, a salad with citris vinaigrette, brie and strawberries and an olive/antipasti […]

Oh wait…you’ve been here for a few days already?  Where has the time gone?? Another year has come and gone. I think 2010 was a pretty good year. We were busy, but not unduly so. The kids have grown taller, […]

Well, I don’t know who it really interested in my battle against the muffin top, but I thought I would put up my current status.  I seem to be doing more exercising than blogging lately.  I’m pretty sure it is […]

Hard to believe, but the first year of school is done today, which seems pretty late.  It is due to all those random days off they take during the year.  I KNOW we didn’t have all those days off and we […]

  …Some gave all.

This is another memory from my childhood on the old farm.  The Storm.  I believe it is still referred to by the locals as “The Storm”.  When you speak of “The Storm” everyone knows of which you speak.  I even […]
