I’ve got mad fever!

No, I am not talking scarlet fever or hay fever… It’s SPRING fever around here! Thankfully we’ve kicked our cold (I should say E and I kicked it, N might be coming down with it now). So things are more productive here especially since the weekend was warmer than usual, basically it was NOT jacket weather [...]

The day of red

18 months ago, thanks to my Fertility Awareness Method charting I knew I was pregnant, before I’d even missed my period. Now, over a year later I am back in the world of fertile women and am reminded of how bad it sucks to have “that time of the month” again… Oh and we have to [...]

Road trip adventures Everly enjoyed.

Whew! After a week on the road we needed a day to decompress after getting back to Evansville. Yesterday we sat around in our PJ’s, did many loads of laundry, scrubbed cat vomit from the carpets, cleaned cat boxes… You know all the chores and stuff that go undone while you are away. Everly was a [...]

What is it with shower situations in New Mexico? We are spending the night in Tucumcari, NM this time around. We got a cheap hotel to spend the night in and unfortunately it only has a shower. You see it’s a cheap hotel, tiny, clean and shower-less with a super loud heater… You get what you [...]

The last time I showered in New Mexico…

We are on the road in our newly fixed car! After flying here and hanging out with family and friends it’s now time to make the trip back home, in our car. We spent much time this morning debating weather or not it was a good idea to make the trek up north to I-40 [...]

Live Blogging: Cat Swallows Needle

Here are my tweets as they played out during the night and early hours of the morning. I didn’t realized it would reach so many people. At first I was just tweeting so my husband would know what was going on, then I kept tweeting to be sure I didn’t leave anyone in the dark. [...]

It’s true. N and I got the holiday ham that keeps on giving. It seems we have food poisoning or something… It’s been an ongoing thing for over a week now. We just tossed several pounds of ham leftovers after we figured it was the culprit, also tossed the spinach salad just for good measure. [...]

Dazed, anxiety ridden and plagued with ham disease.

Christmas 2009 as parents.

I never thought I would be such a gingerbread cookie fiend! Last week we made up a ton of cookies to get in the holiday spirit and also so N would have cookies to take in to work for everyone. We’d been trying different gingerbread cookie recipes each year, nothing was particularly impressive and I thought [...]

Someone is excited about the holiday!

She’s not even walking yet and she’s already being a stinker about opening gifts early. After her gift snagging earlier in the week we moved all the gift bags and stuff with ribbon away from her reach. We thought the paper and curly ribbon was attracting her attention. Looks like she’s smarter about this gift [...]

Someone is excited about the holiday!

I have a confession. I am fairly certain twitter is killing my creativity! I’ve been having issues with blog content since Everly’s birth. Sure I am a busy mom who is working part time in addition to caring for a new baby. Yeah, computer time is limited these days… The thing is it’s not the time that [...]

A twitter addiction? Confessions and talk of loss.

Baby leg warmers crochet fun

I’ve been working on making E a pair of baby legwarmers since October. I just finished them today which is kind of a big deal. You see I tend to start and never finish my knit and crochet projects… Today will probably be the only day she’ll wear them since it took me two months to [...]

Sunday Stealing: The Dating Profiles Meme

All the trees are naked and it is very close to freezing at night now. Thanksgiving is just right around the corner and we aren’t really sure where the year has gone. Life is blowing by so fast and it just feels like we are standing here in a blur while it all swirls around us [...]

Today we are proud home owners!

Well, we’ve done it! Several years of planning and thousands of dollars later… We are now the proud owners of our own home! N was bummed that we had no “sold” sign to pose with out on the front lawn though… We may just have to stage it anyway, kind of like this: We went in [...]

Today we are proud home owners!

This will be the first weekend in probably a month or so that we’ll have to relax and get caught up on things. Marching season has come and gone, my 9th marching season is now over. Sure winterguard plans and ideas are in the works but it wont be until January when the performance madness picks [...]

Sigh… Rest and recuperation are in order.

When it rains it pours- It’s been hectic!

Posted on Dec 03 in Animals & Pets, personal stories, pictures say 1000 wordsby TalinaPrintText Resizer Text Resizer

talina-and-hazel-renee.jpgThe last few days have been quite crazy! Saturday we awoke to fish tank water leaking all over the house, after we solved the tank issue we went to see my niece and the rest of my family. We got some good pictures! She is such a well behaved baby, no crying or fussing at all! She is also very beautiful! My brother is quite the proud daddy and I am excited for them.

After our visit we drove back home last night and got pulled over as we exited the freeway and were blocks from home. The cop pulled us over because our license plate light was burned out.

This morning we were running errands and getting some stuff done while we were in town. Over at the post office as I was pulling out of a parking spot a lady cam flying out of her parking spot in reverse and she backed right into the side of our car going pretty fast. She was sorry about hitting us, we exchanged insurance info and it was a fairly friendly encounter. Now the whole back/ side panel of the car has a very large dent and the gas flap thingy wont close because of the dent. Then, when we get home we notice that our back door had blown open and that our inside cats had gotten out and were wandering the neighborhood.

Our cats eventually came home and we contacted the insurance company about the large dent in the car. It will all work out for us but it has been a pretty hectic few days! All kinds of things are happening, when it rains it pours huh?

Have you been having any crazy happenings this week or has it been calm for you?

    Wow! You sure HAVE been busy! I’m sorry about the fish tank and the car situation. Those things really stink but fortunately nobody was hurt. YAY for that! And I’m so glad your craft show went well. To top it all off, isn’t that the most adorable little baby girl ever! Oh, it must have been hard to stop holding her and give her back to her rightful owners! LOL. Thanks so much for posting the pic for us all to see.

    Congratulations, She is beautiful.

  • Aww isn’t she precious? My nephew is now eight months old. I will be seeing him on Christmas eve. He is such a sweet baby. He’s adopted but looks exactly as my brother did when he was a baby.

    Sorry to hear about the car mishap. I hope that will get fixed soon. Thank goodness for insurance, right?

    We haven’t had any crazy happenings here in Maryland. The man I’m seeing is away for a month with his job. I’m not liking that too much, but he should return before Christmas. It’s snowing here in Maryland. My daughter and I are enjoying that immensely!

    Opal Tribble/Vegan Momma » Your nephew is adopted? That is the sweetest thing ever! I bet he is very precious and loved.

    The car mishap is actually working out very smoothly! The woman who hit us admitted it to her insurance company and they are paying for all the repairs and for a rental car while ours is in the shop. It has been a surprisingly easy process!

    Well, enjoy your snow and keep warm! Our snow will arrive friday and we are getting ready. Take care!
