Day Two

November 2, 2013 at 9:21 AM · Filed under Thirty Days of Thanksgiving and tagged: , , , , , , ,


Today I am very thankful that my Jack in the Box has a job that is allowing us to travel to Detroit.

Middle Monkey is in Marching Band for the first time. We haven’t been able to go to but one competition. It is sad when you can’t go and support your child with something they are choosing to do. I support him the best I can, which never feels like it is enough.

But thankfully because Jack in the Box is working, even though we are going to be tight on funds for the week, we are able to go to watch him in Detroit! I am looking forward to this wonderful day. We won’t be able to spend it with him but we will be able to go and be there to support him!

 

Proud to say that our school got 2nd place in their tier! Way to go Marching Band! So proud of you!

Welcome Back

Even with the ear pain I ventured out to church this morning. It was so good to be back there!

I miss the connection I have with my church family. They give love and support and prayer and this peace.

I think the best reaction today was one of my good friends there who was so excited to see me. She told me it made her day to see us at church.

I am feeling really good right now because I am feeling fed! YAY me!

It was great to be welcomed back!

Day Twelve

November 12, 2011 at 9:58 PM · Filed under Thirty Days of Thanksgiving and tagged: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


Today I am thankful for my husband, Jack in the Box.

He might drive me nuts some days. He may not load the dishwasher the way I prefer. He may not be the best at laundry. He has to be asked 90% of the time to get something done numerous times.

But he works hard for our family. He loves me for me. If I am upset he actually cares and will change his plans if it is needed. He loves his children. He is an amazing father. He tries hard with everything. And best of all he makes me laugh and smile. Even when I am upset with him he can make me laugh.

He is the best gift to have been given. Who knew you could honestly meet a decent man at a bar?

Life can be crazy. Life can be rough. Life can be trying. But if you have your best friend to go through everything with all of those things don’t matter much. Because you love each other, support each other and make each other smile.

Our Angel

Scott and I, along with our families, would like to thank everyone for the continued support over the past few years during Noah’s illness.

New Year Resolution

January 6, 2009 at 3:25 PM · Filed under Uncategorized and tagged: , , , ,


I was listening to a show about new year resolutions.  What is it about the new year that makes people go nuts and make all these resolutions to change their life?

I used to make a resolution each year only to break it within the 1st few months.  Then I decided one year my resolution was to stop making New Year Resolutions!

I always broke then and does it really matter when you make a resolution to change something in your life?  Does it matter that January 1st is the day?  Why can’t we have a mid-year resolution date?

I seem to do better when I resolve to make something permanent when it isn’t at the beginning of the year.  I also seem to do better when I have some kind of accountability partner.  Which means I have to tell people – yuck!

I have realized I am not a good person to make a new year resolution and so I don’t but I am a person who does have will power.  I am a person who if they really want something and put her mind to it – will accomplish it.

I don’t need the new year but I do need someone to stand by me to kick me in the arse when I think about slacking off!  Ever watch the  “Biggest Loser” on TV?  I am so the type of person who would need to have Jillian Michael’s as my coach!

Why is it that we feel we need a New Year to make changes?
