31 Days of Fall- Let the festivities begin!

31 Days of Fall- Let the festivities begin!

Fall has always been a sad season for me.  For most of my life fall meant school started up again, and that was devastating every year.  Now that I no longer have to go back to school (Oh thank you, Lord!) in the fall, I have still found it to be depressing because the weather gets colder.  Hot weather is so good for my soul.  I just bubble over with joy during the summer months of hot weather.  Thankfully where…

A Little Fuzzy

A Little Fuzzy

This is not an instance where I can say, “It all happened so fast.”  It was actually a pretty slow process, most of which I remember quite clearly. As you know, I had another sinus procedure done this past Wednesday.  Thank you to those of you who prayed for me.  It was something that scared me so bad, and hung over my head tremendously.  I was absolutely dreading the procedure.  I don’t care what is done to me when I’m…

Land of the (sordof) Living

Hello world!  I’m here, just in case you were wondering.  It’s day 6 of recovery, and I think overall it has been going well.  I have been through so many other more painful, more difficult things in life that this last surgery has felt like a bit of a breeze.  Don’t get me wrong, I haven’t been anywhere but in bed or on the couch all week, and I certainly haven’t been doing cartwheels or backflips- oh yay,  I don’t…

Tomorrow

Tomorrow

 Tomorrow at this time, my surgery will be OVER.  I hope to be sitting right back here on my couch, in our newly rearranged living room for my recovery.  The TV was way too far away before, so Chuck (with the help of his brother Timmy) moved it closer for my enjoyment.  I am so looking forward to sitting here tomorrow night with this whole thing behind me.  Hopefully I’ll be on some sort of very strong pain-killer and flying…

Go to the Mattresses

Go to the Mattresses

Having recently watched, “You’ve Got Mail” for the millionth time, I couldn’t resist the title.  Though I’ve also seen, “The Godfather” (thanks to Tara), I don’t recall the “going to the mattresses” thing.  For those of you who haven’t seen either movie, and are completely confused, we’re moving on now. When Chuck and I were engaged, he already owned a queen-sized bed which he had bought brand new before I was in the picture.  I remember the very first time…

After talking with my Mom, I stand corrected.  A few edits have been made… Recently I was talking to one of my dear friends, Lisa (I never call her Lisa by the way, she is almost always referred to by me as “Fur”.) about what she and her husband, Eric might name their baby.  They are keeping the possible names a surprise, but we still had quite a time talking about it.  We ended up discussing what our parents almost…

Normal Day

Normal Day

I just got back from lunch with one of my dear friends, Megan.  We went to The Bagel Cafe which is a unique place to eat breakfast or lunch if anyone is looking for a new spot.  Normally we enjoy eating outside, but it’s a little bit too blistering hot today.  Don’t get me wrong, I adore the heat.  Hot, humid, sticky weather is the best.  Except I learned in Croatia, it’s only the best when you get a break…

Undeniable

There is an undeniable passion on my heart right now to promote the movie, “October Baby”.  Several months ago I was looking up information on a Bible Study book through Lifeway Publishers, and came across the “October Baby” clip.  It caught my eye right away because our baby would have been born this past October.  After watching the trailer, I was riveted!  Then, a few months later, I got connected with a crisis pregnancy center.  Through their organization, Chuck and…
