It seems to me I could name every Sunday post with Sunday Morning. Sunday mornings are good for us, all three of us. Sunday is the only day we can sleep in. School and work through the week, swim lessons on Saturday, but Sunday is leisurely. Sunday we have pancakes. Saturday is for eggs, Sunday [...]

Yarn Contemplation
I can’t knit. Okay, well I don’t knit. No one has taught me yet and I’m not very, well, dexterous. I really want to learn, it’s just mapped out for something to learn in a year or two, this year is the cleaning up and organizing year. I have knitting envy though. So many of [...]

Rooster! In The Backyard!
We had a visitor on Saturday. I walked out the side door to take out the compost and saw him dashing around the corner of the garage. I bolted inside to get the camera and the girls. He seemed to have come across the road (insert joke) and I followed him around trying to get [...]

Abby
She was smaller than the cat when I brought her home. Now the husky in her pulls all of us about and through the woods after multitudes of smells. She has given me too many headaches to count, destroyed one sofa, eaten unmentionables, devoured Godiva chocolates, left puppy sized piles of fur all over the [...]

Solo Baking
So, really I’m a copycat because D posted about her daughter’s solo run, but reading that nudged me that Ems has been asking to do a solo bake, so I let her do it Sunday. She chose chocolate chip cookies since we seem to make them a lot around here and she’s helped me quite [...]

October Everywhere
Gotten a Mimi yet from Michelle’s shop?
Or one of these cute little tiles from robotcandy?
Very, very dirty windows.
Gathered pine cones, free centerpieces.
Hello, Mr. Bones!
He’s been with us for some time. Ems is finally not afraid of him.
Rottingly disgusting jack o’ lanterns.

Ack.
I’m done. Spent. Wrecked. Blitzed. You name it.
This week I’ve tried to conquer, stomach anxieties, a flat tire, an unexpectedly flooded basement, lack of sleep, deaf children and my own self-doubt and anxieties.
The girls and I aren’t meshing this week about the household. I KNOW, I KNOW, they are six and eight years old. I [...]

The Lunchbox
The lunchboxes have greatly improved since last year. I posted before about wanting to have reusable fabric pouches for the girls sandwiches and snacks. Since my sewing machine is sitting a bit dusty (just not enough time) I found some lovely ones on Etsy and had some other Mama make them. Handmade is always a [...]

Last Summer Moments.
Just when I had about written off summer, dreaming of the next chapter in this turning year, she gives me one last moment or two to hold onto.
Fresh lima beans from the farm Saturday.

Organizing.
One of the goals I had for this vacation at home time was to organize the home. So far, I’m behind. Only have accomplished the first floor, but every cabinet, drawer, closet and cubby has been scoured and organized. It is a wonderful feeling to have order again.
(The window above the kitchen sink, see [...]
