Although summer’s almost over, there’s one thing I like to use throughout the entire year that keeps me connected to the feeling of summertime. I love to use a fresh, citrus salt scrub in the shower. There’s a great use for salt scrubs besides just as a scrub. It’s great for shaving legs.

It’s almost Labor Day, which means the Fall season is approaching quickly here Up North. The nights are getting cooler. In fact, tonight’s low is sinking to 41. We’re seeing a lot more patches of reds, golds, and oranges on green trees. All this makes me very happy because Fall is my favorite season. I [...]

A few months, I began getting the sewing bug. This alone is a bit weird since I haven’t touched a sewing machine since 1981 when I was in the 8th grade. But after reading blogs by other moms who love to sew and seeing all the wonderful dresses, purses, tote bags, and other [...]

Earlier this evening, Little Miss Throwsafit, Littlest One and I drove to Garland to meet my husband and Little man for dinner. It was about 7:35pm and the sky looked so beautiful that I stopped to take pictures. Since I wasn’t able to get out today for an official Sunday drive, I took the opportunity [...]

On Saturday, we were able to visit with Thomas. Unfortunately, we had to leave Littlest One at home because he had a runny nose and cough (after a day of pulmacort and albuterol breathing treatments, it disappeared as quickly as it came). So, Steve and I piled Little Man and Little Miss Throwsafit into our [...]

I know rechargeable are nothing new; I was just a slow poke when it came to this. I have always purchased disposable batteries and never even considered rechargeable until I purchased my new digital camera. That’s when the salesman at Ritz Camera recommended Quantaray rechargeable batteries because their charge lasts much longer than that of [...]

Since August 12, my Feedburner stats have said 0, which is obviously wrong. I subscribe to my own feed so I can monitor things, but I’ve been getting feed updates normally, so I just assumed everything was ok. But it’s not, obviously. I’m sorry if you haven’t been getting my rss feed updates. [...]

I got up this morning went into the kitchen, put away the clean dishes from the dishwasher, put the dirty dishes from the sink into the dishwasher, cleaned up the kitchen a bit, and then made coffee. As the coffee was brewing, (a mere 3 minutes - we have a Bunn.) I went into [...]

My two boys. Little Man is such a great big brother, except he won’t share his chocolate.
