determined

I am determined to make an advent calendar this year.  I will.  I must.

Only trouble is, the one I see in my head needs a mantle.  And, oh yeah...we don't have a fireplace.  Hmph.

Fall projects have begun.  I made this one evening recently.  Quilling is so something that is better to do without little children.

cooler mornings

Who can resist baking in fleece booties and steamed milk with peeps?  Not me.

laundry with the LG

P has started helping me more and more.  Her clothespins always want to be friends.

a few of my favorite things



Sleeping on couches and bleaching the walls
Changing the sheets and washing the dolls
Love cooler weather and the sickness it brings
These are a few of my favorite things

Pale tired husbands and lackluster children
Dizziness, night sweats and days feeling frozen
Heads that are aching and a stomach that wrings
These are a few of my favorite things

Dustin telling of germs we must duel
Teapots and cold toast and chicken with noodle
Tummies that rumble and a baby who sings
These are a few of my favorite things

When the flu comes
When the bugs camp
When we're feeling bad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
