Summer use to be the relaxing season out of all 4 of the seasons. As a kid that's because you don't have to go to school during the Summer, or at least most of it. However, as a parent, Summer has become less relaxing than I once remember. Life just seems to speed up in... Continue Reading →
If you have any presence on social media I am sure you have seen the birthday Questionnaires to ask your kids every year. I always like asking my kids questions like those to see how they have changed and what's going on in their heads. I am always wondering what they are thinking about. I... Continue Reading →

Day 8. JOURNAL FOR 20 MINUTES. This morning started off fine. I realized that I haven't gotten up late (to get Pickle to school) since before Christmas break. For me, that is actually a pretty big deal. I'm not a morning person, mainly because of my insomnia problems. So, the fact that I have gone... Continue Reading →
One of my least favorite areas of our house, but also probably my favorite, is our bedroom. I don't know about other people, but the master bedroom seems to be the room where everything ends up. Something that constantly gets overlooked in our room are the tables and dressers. I mentioned that we are in... Continue Reading →
Hey howdy ho!! Another busy weekend in the books! Friday was pretty much typical. Pay some bills, get some groceries, and hang out at home. Saturday, Chris had to work to make up for the holiday.
