For as long as I can remember in her two and a half years of life, little M has been facinated with computers. Every chance she gets, she hops on a computer. She has the ability to do things on the computer that I don’t.

She opens windows that I didn’t even know existed. Everytime I [...]

“Surely there is a time to submit to guidance and a time to take one’s own way at all the hazards.”
-Thomas Henry Huxley

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and I’m pretty sure this time it’s not a train coming at me.
Today I feel better than I have in days and [...]

“My best creation is my children.”
-Diane von Furstenberg

This feeling like crap got old several days ago. I’m ready to have my life back. I’m yearning for quality time with my family. I want to sing with my girls. I want to curl up in bed and read them stories. I want to eat meals at [...]

There is something about a whimsical bird, that I just love. I’m not sure why. Real birds freak me out a bit, but cute 2D birds that don’t squawk, poop or fly are as cute as pie! I saw these today on Etsy.com. They are screen prints by Jen Skelley. They each have names too.
Meet [...]

I took a design quiz today to see my design style. Well, I took several of them. One particular quiz-from Merlliat -pegged my style as Country Causal. Then it gave me some examples of rooms I would like with that style. Most of the rooms didn’t do much for me, except this one.
I would love [...]

Day two wasn’t so much fun.
It started off very painful and ended with me hugging the puke bucket.
My swollen uvula has shrunk just a bit. It’s still as long, but not quite as wide. Any improvement is nice.
I still sound like some kind of Muppet character when I talk. It’s amusing when I’m feeling ok, [...]

“Where there is great love, there are always miracles!”
-Willa Cather
Last night wasn’t much fun. I slept-I use that word very loosely-upright in the bed. I settled in for the night at about 10:30. I quickly realized that my uvula was so swollen, I choked if I wasn’t sitting up.
I would doze off and wake up [...]

It’s done!
My tonsils are out and everything went well. The morning started out like normal. Mom came to stay with the girls. Jon and I dropped K off at school and we headed to the ENT Center. We were told to arrive at 9 am and we were actually on time.
I answered lots of question [...]

“In the sheltered simplicity of the first days after a baby is born, one sees again the magical closed circle, the miraculous sense of two people existing only for each other.”
-Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I decided to try my hand at a homemade Christmas gift for my sister. I got the idea to make some marble magnets [...]
