Update 7 of the Photo Challenge and some Midweek Tidbits

 
 
A short update since I just did this a few days ago...
 
 
48/365 
 Deathcicles or Icicles....that is the question.  I must say, I am going to walk out of the way as these beauties melt.

I found when I look up, I can visualize Spring because I don't see all of the remnants of winter :)

Spring colors are so beautiful and in this case, they taste great too.

 
Around here this week .....
 
We have had another ice storm.
 
Madi had two root canals.  The girl didn't even need any more pain reliever after the initial dose.  Wow, what a tough cookie.
 
I had to take another vacation day due to Dentist/Ice Storm.  I do not like using them up on these things.  I like to use them for pool days you know.
 
I must admit, I think I am feeling a little depressed and suffering from a bad case of cabin fever. I am thankful for the warmer temps and even took  a walk at work on my break....I needed that.
 
We had tuna noodle casserole for supper last night.  That is one of my favorite meals.  Good for the soul food.
 
Lucy and Madi have been Rainbow Looming their little hearts out.  Madi has gotten very good with hers.  These are the little looms use to make bracelets out of small colored bands that remind me of the ones on my braces from years ago.  I would have been so into that as well at that age, kind of like friendship beads were for us.  You know, the beads strung on safety pins and then pinned to your shoe laces.  The colors all meant something.  We were so cool :)
 
Katie has her last two dances this week for Basketball, Madi finishes up volleyball,  and Cassie signed up for track (I find this kind of funny). 
 
Happy Wednesday!!

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!! 

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...
