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!

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...

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...

Winter Items I Can't Live Without

  If you have read my blog, like ever, you know winter and I have kind of a tolerate, bordering on really dislike, each other kind of relationship.  If I could have snow without ice and in 50 degree weather, life would be fine for those 4-5 months.  I don't really dislike snow.  But I can't handle being cold.  At All!!   Ok, Rant over, for today, maybe, until it is brought up again....   What can I not live without?   A Warm Coat...my favorite coat is my black puffer coat.  It was super cheap from Sam's eleven (yes, eleven) years ago.  It is the warmest coat ever and luckily has never went out of style.  The zipper is being a little iffy this year and I just might cry if I talk about it too long.  This coat washes and drys so well and does not look like it has been a winter staple for eleven years.  I also have a North Face that I love but if it is below 20, the black coat wins hands down, every time. ...
