1. Our checkbook balances again. YAY! Considering the last time I even kept a checkbook was … well, maybe when I was 19 or 20; this is a major thing for me. I have to admit, I’m kind of intoxicated by seeing everything balance. 2. We finally gave our 39oz of spare change [...] I think I’ve begun what I’ve been waiting for (apart from labor) and was wondering if I’d ever have before Little One arrives: nesting energy! Hurray! Despite the fact that I seriously want to clean EVERYTHING in our apartment (and I do mean everything), I’m forcing myself to stay on top of what I [...] Several bloggers I know have been taking a word and making that the focus of their year, such as “joy” or “forgive“. You can read Jen’s thoughts about it here. I’ve been thinking what my “word of the year” would be, or perhaps, should be. Right now I think it would be “sleep“, or [...] A simple but great idea: spend a day of fasting and in prayer for Haiti, then donate money you would have spent on your meal to Haiti. Head over to Fast For Haiti for more details, and leave a comment and let them know how you will be [...] 1.

It’s a headache and a half, but that’s [...] This pregnancy seems to be flying by. This pregnancy also is much harder than Elise’s was. I feel like the amazing fatigue from the first trimester is starting to come back, which may be due to chasing around Her Royal Cuteness; but also to life in general. I am purposely [...] At Confession yesterday, the priest (not my regular confessor, but a visiting priest from Africa) said something to me that really made me stop and think. And keep thinking. I was telling him about the darkness and dryness that has been going on. He simply smiled and replied “Feeling like God is [...] 1. It’s -17*F. Somehow I woke up early and got everyone ready to take Greg to work (since we’re now a one-car family, things like doctor’s appointments determines who gets the car when). 2. Our Christmas cards are out in the mailbox, waiting to be picked up by our mail retrieval and delivery person [...] Faith and Family Live has a great story this morning about Katie Rose and her husband, who have gone from 0 to 4 children in a year. Faith and Family Live is also collecting words of encouragement, support, prayers and advice for her. So, pop on over there and leave a comment; or simply [...] |
