 I am a Catholic SAHM to two kids and three babies in Heaven. I like to write about Catholicism, homemaking, being a Mom, living with three mental disorders, and the like. (more?)

I like to think I’m not totally insane for deciding that 0530 is a good time to wake up. In fact, I end up getting a lot accomplished. And, I’ve been faithful to that wake-up time for two weeks now. It hasn’t been easy – waking up early means going to bed early. It [...] Another reason why I love the New Year is that everyone gets all excited about goals and setting them and (hopefully) achieving them. Over the years I’ve become more focused with my goals, rather than the ambiguous ones (“pray more”) or the impossible ones. Goals not met are still good for me to experience, [...] Farmer John arrives at the Nativity on January 5th, announcing the arrival of the Wise Men on January 6th. A most blessed Epiphany of the Lord! One of the things I love about the New Year is that the blogosphere is abuzz with everyone’s favorite books from 2011, and their recommendations for books to read in 2012. Allow me to jump on the bandwagon. Last year I read 49 books. Which isn’t bad, considering if you look at my “Books [...] After spending way too many months looking at Easter eggs (which are fitting for the Easter season … not Advent), I finally felt well enough to redesign the header for this little blog of mine. I’m pretty happy with it, and the quote from St. Alphonsus Liguori is especially fitting for me right now. [...] Wow, y’all. I’m a little embarrassed by the outpouring of prayers, well wishes, and support from my last post. Right after I posted that post, I thought “Wow, this is kind of heavy, especially after being gone for a while. Perhaps I should talk about this at a later time.” I am glad that [...] Greg and I have spent the last couple of weeks purging like we’ve never purged before. Yesterday we hauled the fruits of our purge to the local Goodwill – literally about half of our possessions. That’s the brunt of it, there are still a few small bags left to purge; but the most of [...] Now that the house is done, what will I write about? Like I have any shortage of things to write about: * perfectionism: how it can benefit me, how it can hurt me, and its proper place in my life * I joined the parish Choir, which means I have plenty of musical escapades [...] Guess what I’ve done all day. It involves boxes. And many trips in the car with said boxes full of stuff. And eventually emptying said boxes into our beautiful new house, and repeating the process. The City re-inspected our house this morning and signed off at about 0915. Major Dad told me at 0920, [...] The City is inspecting the house now. Normally, I’d be on pins and needles. But there’s a catch – there’s always a catch, right? According to the Building Department, as well as having a City Inspector come out, we need an Engineer and someone from the Water Department also to come out and inspect. [...] |
