Its OK



It's Ok.....

That I overslept this morning and spent my first 20 minutes at work ranting and raving to my coworker, thanks Lori :)

That I have decided to learn to sew and knit at this stage of my life.  I bought myself a sewing machine for my birthday, even though I can't sew.....yet.  I also spent last night working on making myself a scarf using my new loom from Christmas (another present to myself).  I am really enjoying the knitting, but am still psyching myself up for sewing.  My Momma would be so proud.

That I have become obsessed with coffee since I am denying myself coca cola for Lent.  Ummm, maybe my addiction is caffeine?

That I really hoped to wake up to Spring today, but had to see a bunch of slushy ugly snow again....sniff sniff.

That our puppy really did eat Katie's homework.  Well, chewed up her book.  Now we have to purchase two copies (Kindle so she could finish her assignment) and a replacement copy of a book she hates.

That I was not a nice momma this morning, but did remember to let my girls all know I loved them this morning before leaving.

Hope you are having a wonderful Thursday!!

    C'mon, girlie! I want to see your first sewing project! :) I have knitted and crocheted in the past, but it was VERY simple stitches and I will have to relearn it all when I go back to it again one day! Isn't it nice when the kids get old enough we can start doing things for ourself again?! Enjoy!

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...

What's going on around here....

  I am joining up with The Simple Woman's Blog to bring you my weekly day book.  Link up and share yours and read the other links....          For today...February 2nd (Groundhog's Day) 6 more weeks of Winter was the prediction.   Outside my window....Snow.  We got enough to cover everything, but not the storm that was predicted.  I can handle this.  I will admit, snow is beautiful the first day before it gets slushy and dirty.       I am thinking...how nice to have the day off.  Sometimes using a vacation day to hang out around the house is worth it.   I am thankful and in gratitude for... an older daughter who is responsible and can run the house and the family well when left in charge for a few days.   I am wearing...my pajama pants and an Oklahoma Sooners hoodie, this may be what I stay in all day long :)   I am wondering....if raising teenagers will tur...
