what’s up?

It’s been quite a winter. Cold… really cold. Cold enough that Jimmy talks about moving somewhere warmer. We dream of green. And wish GRAY away. We spend time at home. Home is good – but hard with littles who need to get energy out. We do laundry. We wear sweats. Liza goes through the mail. […]

the little voice

follow-up. I completely failed to get up at 6 to exercise. I couldn’t fall asleep until after 11. Woke at 3 with a pounding headache. Got up with zuzu at 4 since I was waiting for the Advil to kick in. So yeah – 6 a.m. didn’t happen. 8:30 did happen. Oh Glorious Sleep. I […]

peace & fulfillment

yesterday this was my fortune: Great! I’ll take peace & fulfillment. The thing is that both of those things have to do a lot with my attitude & my actions… and probably mostly from the Lord’s blessings. Here are 2 thoughts I want to remember.

We live in the arctic

My kids just waited in 6 degree weather for 15 minutes for the bus to show up. It never came. Poor things came home so frozen. It has been a very long time since we’ve seen 30 degrees. I’m grateful for the increased snowfall we’ve had this year – perhaps that will help us have […]

enjoy life

sigh… this is good. but yes, i agree with sister hinckley… that is it tricky… at least on certain winter days. and just so ya know… it isn’t arctic temperatures everywhere in the world. in fact… i think green still exists…
