joe and the snow (w/ more Thanksgiving pics!)

Today my cathedral is dressed in a light layer of white.
a smooth cup o’ joe, comfie recliner, spritzes of snow falling delicately to the ground just outside and 24 blaring in the foreground. my kind of day. also, the fact that I got up around 12. yeah, 12. I have an amazing husband who [...]

Twilight! (pics!)

Lori and I after seeing twilight! we are so cool Fan-pires! mwahahahah- and were about 10 years older than the average age in the crowded movie theater… ahhhhhh….

some Thanksgiving pics of my nieces, not of us…

(…due to the fact that Brian shot the family pictures of us in “raw” format and we don’t have the correct program to transfer the data and make them able to be viewed on our computer. Superior, complex, snobby Apple! I curse thee. not really, I really, really want my pics super bad!)
I took these [...]

update on Summit’s innards.

well, Gloria Jeans Hallelujah, nothing is wrong with Summit’s kindneys, bladder or whatever else the experts were looking for! Yay! a ray of sunshine has thus reached me in my cave!

"In my younger and more vulnerable years"…

…I went to Silver Dollar City and quietly watched the performers with the elderly crowd. While audibly mocking the sparkly outfits and vests the performers wore as well as the twangy sounds their voices and instruments alike made to my friends, I secretly wondered if something was wrong with me. I already knew from experience [...]

Yesterday we saw Dr. Jackson for Summit’s 18-month check up and this was the first “positive” appointment we’ve had! That is, I had worse news than him! that was kind of nice, [...]

My *new* life anthem

ahem ahem… my new life anthem (ignore the creepy ballerinas if there was an audio file only I’d have posted it instead)
That which doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, they say. Who says? is that biblical? As I grow and change, thus my life anthem does too. My old life anthem is still pretty right [...]

24 hours later and watching 24

well, it’s been about 24 hours since my last post and most of my rantings about being a cliche’ Jonas Brothers fan proved to be mostly untrue- I got “it”, the stomach virus going around. I think that I got it from Summit. All I know is I was hugging the toilet in every which [...]

sweet hallelujah glory be!

If I closed my eyes I could pretend that there was cool, prickly grass under my feet and I was dancing in wild crazy circles to the rockin’ out folk-sy music. There would probably be a bonfire to keep warm by and the smoke would burn my eyes and throat as someone cackled, “smoke follows [...]
