Seasons Change....

Here in Arkansas we do not really have four seasons. We have 2. Summer, and winter. There is no fall or spring, if there is, its maybe a week long. So fall is not quite even here, the leaves have just started changing colors... and were already down into freezing temperatures at night! Crazy Arkansas!

 Paulie is now on what day 4 after surgery... He is doing really well. He has to wear a cone collar because he's been pulling his staples out. He hates the cone but he's making do. He's jumped up onto the bed, and onto a kitchen chair, and he's walked down the hallway using the wall for balance. He's a trooper that is for sure. Today I think he might have realized he's done a bit too much... Mostly sleeping all day but of course he is a cat, after all.

 The kids are being kids. The littlest ones are out of school for the week. Fall break. Wooo. They are already at each others throats and its only Monday. Here's to a great rest of the week. Cheers.

Ahh a fresh new week.

It is Monday. Daylight savings gave me this extra hour of sleep and a bright sunny morning to wake up to. The weekend is behind me now along with that UNGODLY busy week. My best friend is home from her camping trip, I have learned how to use, and LOVE my new phone... All feels right with the world!  Over the weekend Destiny was gone. It was kind of quiet around here, but Promise made sure to make up for the crankiness and teenager (esq) that might be lacking in the household. Thank you Promise. Your just too kind.  Rooster boy came and stayed the night. Not sure why but my son always has these strange thoughts he thinks are good ideas when rooster boy stays... Not saying its rooster boy, my son even admitted it was his own idea, I just think when boys get together, they lose all ability to ration out what is a good and what is a bad idea.  So what was the bright idea this weekend? To "splatter paint" A bowling pin . I guess I should be happy, that at least ...

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.

Do you think about me?

 Lately I have felt sad. Like crying for no reason. I can't though. I can never cry for no reason. Someone always wants to know what is wrong and why. Everyone thinks there has to be a reason for someone to cry. I think sometimes... You just need to get it all out. Sometimes you just need to cry, even if your not sure of the reasons why.  Mothers day was a rough day. I felt unappreciated, as usual. That got better as the day wore on. It was still a rough day. I wanted to cry for Tim, who no longer has his mother to call and wish a happy day. I wanted to cry for my mom, who does so much for everyone else, but never puts herself first. Then for some reason I found myself thinking about my dad... Jim.  From as early as I can remember, Jim was my dad. I called him daddy, he was there when I fell to pick me up. He took me to the mall on the weekends and McDonalds. He let me buy a toy at the toy store, but not before I sat with him at the book store first. He learned quickl...
