Yay! A/C!
They put a new heat pump out there where the air conditioner was. We now have cold air again! Yay!!
Our A/C is dead.
Woke up to the unit outside SMOKING. I’m in a mad rush to get the house clean so we can call the landlord. By myself. With a hurting foot. Can I throw myself a pity party? ::sigh::
Weird Spamblocker
I can’t figure this out. I have a spamassassinator, that catches a LOT of incoming spam. However, somehow, one of my lists does weird. It’s Joke-of-the-day. The actual joke email nearly always gets sent to SPAM, while the ADS of which they send three or four a day, DON’T! Urgh!!
I met a mom at the park today.
She has three young’uns – the oldest is 6 and the youngest is 3, I think. She’s considering homeschooling. She was really nice and we chatted until Robby got there to pick me & Nate up. It was neat.
My foot hurts.
My right foot hurts when I walk on it, and when I move it wrong. It’s in the same place that I had a fracture when I was much younger. I don’t know if it’s a flare-up of that, or if I’ve done something else to it. It’s been this way for about a week now. :sigh:
I’m Catch-22 by Joseph Heller
You’re Catch-22! by Joseph Heller Incredibly witty and funny, you have a taste for irony in all that you see. It seems that life has put you in perpetually untenable situations, and your sense of humor is all that gets you through them. These experiences have also made you an ardent pacifist, though you present your message with tongue sewn […]
I’m Ireland!
You’re Ireland! Mystical and rain-soaked, you remain mysterious to many people, and this makes you intriguing. You also like a good night at the pub, though many are just as worried that you will blow up the pub as drink your beverage of choice. You’re good with words, remarkably lucky, and know and enjoy at least fifteen ways of eating […]
I have an only child.
My older three kids just left for a week of camp. For a week, Nate gets to be a “lonely” child. I miss ’em already.
Good night, my lullaby is playing…
Nothing helps me sleep quite like my husband’s snoring. Seriously. When he is snoring, I can get to sleep more easily and I sleep better. He has a touch of sleep apnea, and when he ISN’T snoring, it’s potentially a problem. When I go to bed before he does, it takes me forever to get to sleep. Anyway, I’m tired, […]
Jewelry
I have an acquaintance who makes beautiful hand-crafted victorian-style jewelry – Victorian Traditions.
I’m sunburned!
We arrived home this morning about 1:30am. Yesterday morning, we got up, enjoyed a nice breakfast (indcluded in the price of our room!) and then drove half a block (LOL!) to the location of the customer Robby had to do the work for. My oldest helped his daddy with the work, and the three younger ones and I walked down […]
We’re here!!
We’re in Florida! In the beautiful Port Inn, in a room with a view 🙂 We went to a beach today on the Gulf of Mexico, and swam a bit, and also found several hermit crabs (which we watched crawl back into the water from the sand – one had a round shell on its back the same color as […]
Miscellany
My sister-in-law and her family arrived in town on Saturday. It has been great having them here! My brother-in-law-in-law (hehehe – he’s my husband’s sister’s husband) preached at our church on Sunday (and we had a man saved in the morning service and he & his wife were baptized in the evening service!) and will be heading home Thursday. The […]
Interesting Site
There is a project my brother and I are working on together. It’s called Fictional Realities. The idea is to have personalized stories and penpals for kids. The penpals would be characters from fairy tales or other fictional people, or people from history who are now dead. We are only starting, at the moment.
We’re BA-ack!
We went camping! We left Thursday morning about 7am, and got home Tuesday about 9:30pm. It was quite a nice weekend! Thursday, we arrived at camp around 11am, got everything set up, and played in the water a bit. (We camp by a creek). Friday we spent most of the day dredging. We got a little. The water was very […]
Well, it’s 4am.
Obviously, we won’t be getting out of here at 4am! Which is ok, I guess. Better that the driver get as much sleep as possible!! I have most of the house put back to semi-normal. I just have a little more to do in the kitchen, and then I’m giving up. If the landlord doesn’t like it (IF he even […]
So much time, so little to do!
…strike that, reverse it! We intend to leave EARLY in the morning and really only have until church time to get finished packing and loading! Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go!
Added some Links.
I decided that it was silly of me to feel a wee bit slighted about my friends not linking to my blog, when I wasn’t linking to ANYONE’s blogs… so now I am! That doesn’t mean I have any more RIGHT to feel slighted, though. Just means that I don’t have to feel guilty that I’m not linking to my […]
Well.
Time is growing short! I have SO much to do before we leave for our camping trip… and so LITTLE motivation! Ugh! I still have to pack clothes, and sleeping bags, and finish tidying up my bedroom, and … I’m sure there’s more little bits -n- pieces that I’m not thinking of, but I can’t think. I will be glad […]
Ok, yet another odd dream…
I woke up suddenly (and completely) at 3:00am today at the conclusion of this dream. ——— The main character was an old woman named Alecia. She had trouble speaking clearly and was quite short and a bit overweight. Her main objective in life was to care for plants and animals. The area in which she spent the most time was […]
