a few things to make you think

As the week ends and I ask myself "What day is it today?" I realize how lucky I am that I find myself asking that. To loose time in this technology driven world is...wordless.

Here are some other items that make me wordless...

I made this wonderful iced coffee from the pioneer woman website (http://thepioneerwoman.com/). Oh...YUM. I love that I found the recipe and I love that I don't have to pay $10.00 for an iced coffee anymore. (ok, I never really paid 10 bucks for one, but I am sure I would have somewhere in my life.) It is perfect for these summer days, and the drink has made me so happy...I am wordless.


Baby birds. So sweet, so little. So high up off the ground. Momma keeps them safe.


Having lunch by a waterfall. Talk about peace and making the world stop for a bit.


Two little ones dipping their feet in the cold water, giggling. Wordless...


Exploring...


And the last thing that some married women would never mention...or admit, but I will. The man, who isn't your husband, (and isn't married) but tells you your gorgeous. A man who when he sees you in a sun dress, makes it obvious that his eyes pop out looking at you. Then in the same stroke, tells your husband how beautiful his(meaning you) wife is, and that he (meaning your husband) married a spit fire.

Now, now, don't get me wrong. I love my husband to the ends of the earth, but that doesn't mean that I don't enjoy someone else telling me something that makes me feel good. Especially when it is someone you can joke back with without any uncomfortableness. And that is something that is wordless. (Yes Janet, you can tell him I mentioned him in my blog.)

Wordless. Take a minute and count your wordless moments. It might make you...wordless.

is anyone out there?

It has been so long since I blogged. So much so that I let my domain expire and it isn't easy to reinstate it…things become more complicated with technology sometimes you just give up. And that is what I am doing now on the domain, giving up and I hope that I can get my monday back. I will be back here.

Birthday cake

When I was little the big thing I always looked forward too on my birthday was the cake. Ok, presents were always good also, but the cake lasted and was always homemade and delish. It was also always a given that the person the birthday cake was for got the first, and last piece. If it wasn't a rule, then I at least followed it. My birthday was this past Saturday and my husband came through with a Mrs. Goodman's cake. (I am still waiting for the year that he braves it and makes a cake from scratch with the kids for me.) Luckily he got a small one, because I ate a slice after my kids sang to me, then I ate a piece after they went to bed. The next day I ate three slices, yes three. I can't stay away from cake it just pulls me in. Besides, birthday cake tastes better than any cake, any day of the year. Monday was Kadence's birthday. There was once slice of my cake left so I saved it for the next day and ate the cupcakes I got for Kadence's family celebration. You...
I had to share this post from Facebook by my cousin Bailey. His words ring very true, and I stand by them. I feel as a society we need to move forward and not backward. Learning to accept everyone for who they are and not forcing everyone into what we feel they should be. Bailey's post: Just in case the Georgetown Times doesn't post my response... Mr. Brock, Your recent opinion article on the topic of same-sex marriages saddened me. Not only as a gay man, but as a forward thinking American citizen, I whole-heartedly disagree with you on your views. No matter what kind of intentions President Obama had for announcing his support of same sex marriage, he will be relieved one day when he finds his beliefs to be on the right side of history. You say, “The biological premise of the joining of one man and one woman is propagation of the species.” If that’s true, why should elderly people be allowed to get married? Or heterosexual couples who can’t conceive children? Should th...
