I'm that person

You know, in ever horror movie made, there’s that one person who hears the strange sound and goes out to check. It doesn’t matter how much you yell at them, they go out and dun dun dunnnnnn they...


2015 hasn’t been the best of years. It hasn’t been the worst, either, but it’s year I’ll gladly say good-bye to. It started with Tootie finally getting the word that she had graduated from coll...

An odd sort of Christmas

This year was an odd Christmas. There was just so much going on. The past couple of months has included my cousin with the brain injury that ended up having to have brain surgery. My mom has b...

Checking in

I’m awful about writing in here. We wrapped up school early today. It’s a good time for the Thanksgiving break to come. There’s a lot going on. It’s strange here without Lizzie. I still look ...

It's been a week...

This time last week I was feeling sick to my stomach and watching Lizzie struggle. I knew that I was going to have to make a decision by Monday morning. I couldn’t figure out how to take the da...

A sad good-bye

This weekend Lizzie started having problems that made me realize that some of what I was contributing to old age or contrariness was actually probably the beginnings of a problem. I realized that...

OctoPhoMo day 24

Ok, so I think I’ve only done about 1/3of the month and only one of those was on topic. I suck at writing lately. I think life has been a struggle and I’ve struggled to find a balance. Anyway,...


Today’s prompt is kissing and hugging. This is one of my favorite of the kids. CBaby getting some Bella loving in. CBaby being a brat and kissing me with cupcake face.

Long year already

I keep coming in to write a post, I read some and then head out. It’s been a rough rough year so far. Lots of stress and worry. I don’t want to keep posting pouting, venting entries. And yet he...

And the year begins

We started with the kiddos on Friday. We’ve always done that, a half day on Friday and then the rest of the day just working in our rooms. I thought it was crazy the first year, but I really li...

Classroom Tour

I’m almost through with my room. Our laminating machine quit working, so there’s a couple of things still to put up. Other than that, it’s done. I always talk about it, so I thought I’d share ...

Waving hi!

You know, when I got the laptop I thought I’d write more. I mean it’s in the living room 90% of the time, on the tray by my chair. It’s just usually closed. (And if I don’t stop hitting the to...

Shooting

I’m still in shock over the shooting in Lafayette. I go there fairly often. I love that town. It’s actually the 4th largest in the state, about 120,000 people, but it’s all spread out and seems ...

Summer in the South

For those who have a romantic notion of summer in the south I want to paint a more clear picture for you. It’s freaking hot!!!!! Imagine - you take a shower. You feel and smell fresh and comfy. ...

And Home Again

It was a mostly amazing week. I’m glad to be home, but man do I miss those Gulf winds and that place. I love it down there. They got smart and added a picnic table at the end of the walkway whe...

Packing Up

We’re in that typical summer type weather. Sunny mornings and ran/stormy afternoons. It’s not as hot as it will be later, but you can definitely feel summer out there. It would be nice for the ...

Hi

It’s been a rough couple of weeks. I started a couple of weeks ago with some serious allergy mess, that quickly spread to upper respiratory/chest cold crud. I got almost well, and then spent the ...


That’s how my weekend went. Friday I stayed late at school to help with the coke delivery for our 4H club. I’m not a sponsor any more, but I told them I’d help. A friend was meeting me here at ...

Brrrrrrr.....

I’m sitting here freezing my tush off. There have been signs of spring here and there, but winter came back and bit us hard these past few days. We’ve now used 2 of our weather days. Today was...

Checking in

I don’t know why I’m suddenly having so much trouble with putting entries in. I’m reading y’all, just not noting much. (I hope to get caught up on that tonight.) I don’t know, just so many thi...

Just a day (and some pics)

It seems like the only time I write here any more is about horrible things. So, I just wanted to post a normal entry about a normal day. I spent some time at my parents’ house yesterday, which...

Sigh

I should be sleeping, but the brain is busy. I was told today that I looked like I was exhausted (never a fun thing to hear). I guess I’ll either do a better job with the makeup tomorrow or just ...

Yay!

I plan on doing a year in review entry later, but had to share this news first. I got a call from Tootie today out of the blue. Actually I got a text with a goofy picture first asking what I was ...

Booom...booom.....booooom

That’s what my head’s doing. A quarter mile or so down the road (and across the 4 lane) a used car lot is having a party. They have a covered slab (no walls) about 75 people, and music pounding...


Book Description

When I first started over here I had titled it Just in Case. Just in Case OD closed. I guess it’s time to get rid of the idea of “Just in case.” and just move on with Life.
