Random Thoughts

Madison's two front teeth are loose!

We own a baby grand piano.  Baby doesn't mean small, well in comparison to other grander pianos.  This is not a new item in our home just one that is big.  Anyway...

Nathan says things wrong which is hilarious or he says stuff you just don't expect like "mmmm this is dewishious (delicious)."  Always good for a laugh.  

Alexandra is in the 95 percentile for her weight and height.  The Dr. said if this rate of growth continues she could be taller than Mark, he is 6 feet tall. 

Changes in Latitude,  changes in attitude nothing remains quite the same. That is all I have to say about that.  

Christmas cards are NOT keeping my mind off things.  

Alex is going to have to get a job to buy food.  She must say to me 10 times a day " I'm hungry." I will write down everything she eats tomorrow and blog it for you.  Prepare to be amazed. 

I want a craft room.  Mark's Aunt and Uncle are coming over tomorrow for dinner and I have to clean up the Christmas card workshop.  One reason I wish for a craft room and that darn CK magazine I get every month.  When will that subscription expire?  The devil must be paying for my renewal.

It is almost Thanksgiving and people are calling about Christmas ideas?  When did November start?  What year is it? What day is it? Everyone might be getting a homemade Christmas card for a present at this rate.  

The economy stinks (as if you didn't know).  If you get a monthly statement for 401k or IRA just leave it in the envelope and file it away.  No need to look.  Trust me!  I told Mark last month just file next month in the drawer and he opened it.  Then I had to hear about it.  I told him not to look.  Last month was hard for me and then he had to go and tell me about this month.  LONG TERM. We retire in about 30 years.  That sounds bad too.  Okay next...

My mom is moving to Jacksonville in two weeks.  Yeah, not sure how I will handle it but I seem to be fine for now except for the chest pain. Did someone say stress?  This topic is even worse than the economy. Moving on...

Ha! That is funny, moving on.  That is all I have to say about that too.

Your random thoughts looks and sounds like my "to-do list." I was getting so anxious over all I had to do the other day that I had to put it on paper just so that I could manage what was going on in my head!

Thank You 2010

I try very hard not to base my life on my location, size of house, materials I possess, new cars or the latest fashions. It is not something that is easy for me or something I don't have to work on everyday. I have chosen my life to be about Christ and not this world. I try to understand this world in the point of view of Christ. This world is not about what, but who. Even if you are not a Christian it is nobel to do for others. I have chosen in my life to follow Christ. Not perfect, just forgiven. I chose to help organizations that are centered on the love of Christ. My main point this holiday season is to remember the who and not the what. I always thought it would be cool to start a Thank You Card movement. Not that I do things for a thank you. A thank you card just shows me that I did something for someone else that was nice, meaningful, worthy. Kinda like a report card. So my challenge to you is to get a thank you card in 2010. It doesn't have to cost you mon...

Southern Charm

We made an offer (low), the owners countered (expected) and they countered exactly what I thought they would. So, unless the inspector says the house should be demolished we will be the owners of a 1965, full brick, colonial style, bi-level house the second week of July or earlier. It is on a golf course, 6th fairway. It has a pool, fireplace, an original 60's kitchen (redo), hardwood floors, two car garage and much more. We know the process is long when buying a house in this condition. It's not in deplorable shape, livable in need of some updates. It is 44 years old and has not had major updates. This house is 10 years newer than our last house. It has character and southern charm. Not perfect, but perfect for us. Photos on the web are copyrighted. Not sure If I can post them here. I will try and do a link instead......

Dogwood

On our 13 hour car ride to our new dwelling place I had to drop Mark and Delta off at the Chattanooga airport to get his truck. He flew from Chattanooga to St. Pete to come home to drive with us to our new digs.  Chattanooga is the closest airport other than Birmingham (1.5 hours away) that flies directly to Tampa/Saint Petersburg.  The Chattanooga airport is two hours from our new house.  This meant that I got to drive by myself with the kids for the last two hours of the very long trip.  Of course all the kids fell asleep, which is not good when you are leaving your hometown of almost 30 years. First time on the trip it was quiet.  Most days that would be a blessing, but this Sunday was not the case.  I needed noise to keep my mind from thinking about all that was happening.     So what does any girl do in a time like this?  I called my mom. One of the few times I am thankful for the invention of the cell phone.  The drive from Chattanooga to our house is so pretty and there are so m...
