Random ramblings and a picture dump

 
So it seems that a lot of things have been going on and yet nothing is going on.  That is life.  The two younger gals have been going to Bible School in the evening and Doug and Cassidy have been at musical practice, so if Katie is home it is just the two of us, or if she has plans, I am on my own.  I have been reading a good book and even had a couple little early evening naps....woo hoo...
 
 
The sky has been doing some amazing things this summer, I just loved this one. 

 
These crackers are so good and really have hardly anything bad in them....yummm

 
I have been making a real effort to get my fitbit steps back up.  So walking on breaks again.  I really feel better when I do it.

 
On one of my walks, I saw this beauty.  The yellow is just gorgeous.

 
The botany department is one of my favorite areas to walk through on campus.  I love this combination of plants.


 
I will never find one of these with my name, so I went with family.  I have essentially given up soda, but it was a bad, bad day and I needed something to improve my spirits and this taste is like an old friend.  It really did help.

 
I found Lucy a hello kitty lunchbox.  The old fashioned metal kind...she loved it, as did I.

 
The snap chat of Cassie wearing my favorite jacket.  I know it is comfy, that is why it is my favorite.  Now get it off!!!

 
My calendar one morning.  That Maxine...she is the bomb and so wise :)

 
Another picture from my walk around campus.  I love the industrial look.
 
Hope everyone is having a great week and enjoying the cool temperatures  in July.  I don't know how I am feeling about that :)

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!! 

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. ...
