- WOW, it's been one month since Patrick died. Still feels like yesterday that Tony called me. Good Lord it still hurts.
- What works for me and my marriage/household might not work for you and yours, so why TRY and make me feel bad because you don't agree? Get a life.
- You can't tell everyone everything. I don't care WHO they are.

- I just put a new blade on my rotary cutter. Ahhhhhhhh so wonderful lol. Nothing like a new blade and a new needle lol.

Amber and I joke that there are times we just go and pet the fabric.....although lately she has done quite a bit of sewing, me, quite a bit of procrastinating.
Don't give the ugly comments no never mind, it's your name on the blog, not theirs. If they don't like it they don't have to visit.

Boy Oh! Boy, I can't wait to start my own blog. I have a lot to ramble about. You are right on so many things. I can honestly say not two people know everything about me. I love early mornings and late nights. Keep blogging, and I'll keep reading.

My family teases me because I plan things "to death"! I used to start planning DDs birthday parties in June or July! Her birthday is in October! But, they were some GREAT parties!

Sock class! So many people are taking these classes lately. Pretty cool. I've crocheted socks but that's it.
It's great your kids like to try different things. People are too often afraid of change. It's sad.
Good Ramblings.
Posted by: Cassandra | June 03, 2009 at 07:07 AM
Like you told me about sewing - there are free sock classes online. I will look for the link.
I hear you about family - what works for me and mine may not work for you and yours and even still don't worry about over HERE! Half the people who give advice anyway don't know what the hell they talking about.
There are times when I deal with issues on my own too. If I really need to get it out and no one to talk to. I write it on paper and then burn the sucker or yell it out. It helps for me sometines.
I will say AMEN to everything else. I use to hate when my mother said until I said so, damn Ma. Gotta love parenting.

I love these posts! They make me sit back and observe all the little things in my corner of the world...Whatever is making your heart heavy, "Just Leave it There!" The old hymn "Just Leave it There, Take your burdens to the Lord and Leave it There...If you trust and never doubt, He will surely bring you out. Take your burdens to the Lord and leave it there..." Love a good hymn...Got me singing early this morning. Keep your head up and keep praying!
Posted by: NC Peach | June 03, 2009 at 07:40 AM
I am such a non planner, and even when I plan something always happens. My heart has been really heavy too, you pray for me and I'll pray for you. Happy Hump Day!

"Nothing like a new blade and a new needle lol."
You're singing my song! Love love love how nice it is to work with a brand new blade!

I miss DirecTv and I hate the cable (which is a feed off of DT)we are forced to have in our apt. complex.
And I ws thinking of planning what I will make for later in the year up until next year this time. That gives me something to work toward and steadily get better.
Speaking of hair, I'm still feeling pieces of avocado and banana in mine from Friday night (why do I bother with food hair treatments?).

socks? i am looking foward to seeing those!! :)
Posted by: Jude | June 03, 2009 at 11:30 AM
Why do I look forward to these Wednesday posts?
I see you conked out me last night. You slept I did not. But did not tweet either. so.
Dang Jaelyn must have really done something bad. Now I wanna know what she did.
I always saw that jealously is a weak emotion and one that no adult should submit to. I like that you love Tony that is beautiful. it gives me hope.
I think Kayla is going to be either a fashion designer or at the very least a real good Seamstress she takes her outfits seriously.
And I am with AJ I like when you make new stuff too so I can then try it out. I have no guinea pigs anymore... Have you ever made stuffed shells? That is my next thing to try and make.

Your ramblings are so spot on!
Sorry, your heart is so heavy. Time will heal. Sometimes it's the only thing. (That, a good laugh and a good drink, LOL).
Yes, not everyone has to know everything about you! OMG people are so nosy!
People need to leave their negative comments to themselves sometimes. Don't post and move on, geez!
Also, hate that I cannot get the darn uncut patterns back in the envelope. So annoying.
Do you use one main camera or do you have a separate one for quick shots? I love your photos and shopping for a new model. Had a Nikon coolpix and it's a piece of junk.

Love your ramblings!!
"My heart has been really heavy but I haven't said anything to anyone. Just kinda been spending time in prayer and dealing with it on my own."
I certainly hope that prayer and good thoughts from blogging friends can lift that heavy heart and make it sing!! I will pray for peace and lightness :)
PS....poor Jaelyn!!

Didn't you hear! When I get rich I'm going to hire a pattern folder!

I learn so much interesting stuff about you from your hump days...:)
Posted by: Kim Brown | June 03, 2009 at 06:39 PM
I've knitted ONE sock just so I could figure it out. I didn't take a sock class. I have a few (okay a lot) of books on knitting and youtube. I finished the sock just in time for spring then I stop (LOL)
I love planning too. I love the ramblings.
