WFMW: Having Friends, Maintaining Your Sanity

Here’s a little Works for Me Wednesday idea… Find a group of friends who share the same interests as you to get together with as a regular group. What? Okay…true, that’s not clear when I say it like that, so let me give you the example in my life. Several years ago (four or five [...]

Huh…well…that was eye opening.

Okay, first, let me admit — I will probably wish for an addition on my house again in the future. But, I had an eye-opening moment the last night and it made me realize that it certainly isn’t something we need. I watched hurricane coverage, and they showed a family in Mexico that lived in [...]

Best Church Ever

Before we went to Mass this weekend, I said, “Are we ready for church?” Two year old Molly jumped up and down, “I love church! I have best church ever!“ What wonderful enthusiasm.

Menu Plan Monday: August 20th Edition

Categories, Archive, Both, or Neither?

What do you list on your blog side bar — your label categories, archives, both, or neither? I have the archive list right now, but I have been thinking for quite a while to try to sort through my label categories and straighten them up a bit and list them in the side bar instead. [...]

Hmmm…which one is it?

Last week, the kids and I went out to run some errands. I knew that Eric would be more than happy to meet us for lunch, since it was getting close to his lunch time. So, we discussed our options, and ended up deciding on meeting up at Culver’s. Eric offered to leave right away [...]
