Today was a busy day. Really busy. Choir, church, dinner, back for a meeting, and a visit. We were out of the house from 11:45 til 8:30. As I was thinking about what I should write about today, and as I skimmed through my notes from Education Week 2008, I came across this quote from…

The sweet taste of Accomplishment!
About 8 years ago, I started making calendars for my Mom, Dad, brother, sisters, and myself for Christmas. I collect pictures from the year that’s ending and make sure that everyone has at least one picture included. It’s a lot harder than it may seem to… a) find at least one picture each of 20…
Full Moon
When I heard that tonight’s Full Moon was going to be the closet and largest that we’ve seen since 1993, I knew I had to go out to take a picture of it. Problem is, I was running places all afternoon and evening and couldn’t catch it. Either I was admiring the moon’s beauty from…
You know how much I like good music…and free stuff!
Just thought I’d pass on a great link. Amazon.com is giving away free downloads of holiday music each day in December. I found out about it today and was able to download over 12 free Christmas songs. And there will be new songs added every day for the rest of the month. They are GOOD…
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
My bloggy friend, Francesca, sent me this Holiday Meme. I’ve been sitting on it for a few days, waiting for a day when I didn’t have anything else to say. When did I get so talkative? This was a lot of fun to read, and even more fun to answer. You are welcome and encouraged…
Today must be my lucky day! (Plus feedback needed!!)
I woke up to an e-mail this morning telling me that I won my very first blog contest! I won a blog makeover from April Showers. :) I can’t wait to see how my new look turns out. Woohoo!! To get ready for my new look, I need some help from everyone. Back when I…
My aspiring Artist
I’ve been meaning to post these drawings….AlmondJoy, my cute little 3-year-old, drew these for me during the Chorus concert the other night. Each one was unique and came with an explanation. (In Al’s words:) “This is you, Mom. You’re mad.” “This is me crying because you didn’t give me candy.”(So sorry that this one is…
My first online interview (does this mean I’m famous??)
I have been displaying some of my favorite photos and a few blog posts on a fun site called RedGage for the last month. I was completely surprised when Liz, one of the people in charge, contacted me for an interview a few days before Thanksgiving. The interview is up today, so go check it…
I’m a sugar-aholic! (Secret family recipes included!!)
Making candy is messy business! My sister spent the day with me in the kitchen making all kinds of holiday candies and goodies for us to EAT (I mean GIVE AWAY!). I really need to give plates away fast or else I will EAT until my teeth fall out (that’s a line from Andrea!) and…
