Memories of the Month {11.2013}
Having the Joy Sucked Out of You
I really hate when life and all it’s problems start to get to me. When I get that feeling that I swallowed a 10 lb. dumbbell, my fingers start to ache, and nervousness rushes through me from my head down to my toes. It’s just not a good feeling. I can handle a lot, but… Read More »

1 Month and No Diet Coke
One month ago today, I quit Diet Coke and really all sodas for that matter. I went cold turkey from May 5th on. Before that I was weaning myself off, but I knew the caffeine headaches would be brutal. They still were for about 2 1/2 weeks after I quit. Someday I satiated the headaches… Read More »
Being the Hands & Feet
Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered. ~ Proverbs 11:25 ESV Oh what a marvelous feeling it is to know you’re doing something for someone who can’t do it for themselves! Being the hands and feet of our Lord and Savior is just so worth the hard work.… Read More »

Memories of the Month {11.2012}
This month I was happy about: getting the kitchen done! This month I was sad about: Auburn high losing in the 3rd round of the playoffs. Somethings I accomplished this month were: getting the kitchen done! Something new I did was: helping with the demolition of part of our kitchen and helping with installing new… Read More »
Happy birthday to me!
Calgon take me away….
As if it weren’t difficult enough coming back from a week long vacation. Getting back to reality after a week away is just down right hard. We’ve also had (one or more) furry little creatures inhabit our home while we were away. A water leak in the kitchen, which has now caused damage. To-do-lists piled… Read More »
Busy Football Friday
Friday was a busy day. As much as I had hoped to get a lot of items marked off my to-do-list, it just didn’t happen. I spent about half a day at work. Fridays are not usually days that I work but it was our Open House. I was on the committee for that, so… Read More »
Aerosmith & Cheap Trick

Yesterday, we dropped the kids off so that they could hang out with their Uncle Nick while Rob and I escaped for a date night in Decatur, GA. One of Rob’s buddies from high school, Jason Passmore, had a CD release party at the Java Monkey. After finding a parking spot and locating Java Monkey,… Read More »
I survived a week without Facebook!
I recently told myself that I needed to take a week vacation from Facebook (FB). I did it for a couple reasons: 1. It was on my 100 in 1,001 list. 2. I wanted to see how my life would be different without it. My thoughts all along were that there would be no way… Read More »

Sick
What great timing! Saturday night before going to bed, I could tell I had some drainage on my throat, but we didn’t have the type of medicine that would really help. Or so I thought. Consequently, Sunday I woke up with a raging sore throat. As Saturday went on I continued to feel not so… Read More »
30 days of Thankfulness – Day 10
I am thankful for the opportunity to learn. My job offers free tuition for me at limited number of hours each semester. Although, I haven’t taken advantage of that. I have taken advantage of the professional development classes. I took my 2nd workshop today on Professional Ethics. A lot of it was common since, but… Read More »
