From the yearly archives: 2009
And that’s a fact.
We invited some friends over for dinner and games. Our families are so wonderfully matched that I didn’t want them to leave! We have an awful lot in common with them but are different enough to keep things fun. We each have three kids. The babies are the closest in ages [...]
Today, we put up the old rickety fake tree in the front room so you can see it from the street.
Today, I got to take a nap. (David was home All. Day. Long.)
Today, an electrician came out and fixed our outside outlets. They’ve been “dead” for a year.
Today, Korben bit an older [...]
22nd day in a row posting and I’m finally beginning to run out of ideas.
I haven’t seen New Moon yet but will probably try to go to a matinee by myself this week. David can watch the boys, but all of my girlfriends that I’d want to go with still have little ones at [...]
No, I didn’t forget to blog today, I just hadn’t gotten to it yet. I’ve been too busy playing in Illustrator.
I probably won’t use any of those, but I thought it was neat seeing the progression from the apple “command” key symbol to a butterfly. I’m giving myself roughly a [...]
I got the question yesterday, “So, what do the boys want for Christmas?”

I have my DBA filed with the county, my Sales Tax Permit, a P.O. Box for my business. I’ve requested a copy of my Social Security Card so I can open a business account with our bank. (USAA doesn’t offer small business accounts.) I need to get insurance on my cameras and lenses and [...]
Lowell and I have turned a corner and the view is so much better over here. I’ve got dinner in the slow cooker (stew!) the mini-blinds are open, my bed is made and I cleaned my closet floor last night. Having energy is a very, very good thing. It helps me cope with these days [...]
The good news is that it’s not the flu (not even close) but the bad news is that we’re going to be cleaning up after it for a week and a half. My oh my, that’s a lot of messy virusey diapers. As you can imagine, Lowell’s potty training has gone completely out the window [...]
… so sick over here today. Lowell and I both. Pray for us, please?
I haven’t shared some links in awhile.

MUSIC
This Pandora Station [here] has been my best friend lately. I have it on for background music nearly all day. It’s set to pull songs that are like Adele, Regina Spektor, and [...]
