So, today I had this goal of hitting a PR (personal record) for words written in one day. I did get my homework done but, with Ethan at work all day and then coming to bed early. I only got a tiny bit done. I really need to get some writing in tomorrow if I want to hit my goals for the month ( Read more... )

Today we went to Uncle Casey’s memorial. It was awesome. It’s a funny thing to say a funeral was awesome but Uncle Casey had an amazing family of Harley Davidson fanatics who told the best stories, made everyone cry and rode about 50 bikes to the memorial. I was awesome ( Read more... )

I am so tired today. I know we have a ton of work with unpacking and organizing but I slept with Beebs most of the night and it wasn’t a very good sleep ( Read more... )

Well, it didn’t get done. The guys were moving things until about 1:30a. Ethan was exhausted and so were the guys. I’m not quite sure what the plan is but I think they are coming back tomorrow. I’m pretty sure they bit off more than they could chew ( Read more... )

Today was a pretty nothing day until the evening rolled around. I worked on my book a bit and Scarlett and Phoenix had quiet time in their room. I made two loafs of bread and made a bunch more dough. Our oven sucks butt though and the dough was too wet and the bread turned out sort of uncooked in the middle. Boo ( Read more... )

Ethan left early this morning for Arizona and spring training with his dad and brother. Though it's poor timing, with the move just around the corner, it's good for Ethan to get away. I just hope he actually relaxes ( Read more... )

Last night I had this wonderful, promising chat with Ethan about how my hip was feeling a lot better, how I wasn't limping anymore, how there was no longer a sharp pain. We thought, maybe it was because it had popped out of the socket, releasing fluid and relieving pain. I said that it is still sore sometimes but really seems to be getting better. ( Read more... )

Phoenix made a whole lego space ship today with absolutely no help. He even put the stickers on all by himself and they look great. The lego set was intended for 7-12 year olds and he did it all on his own - he's 4! It even has gears that had to be assembled for a sliding door. He is just amazing ( Read more... )

We got the keys to out new house today! It's a rental but it's fantastic. We are moving in just two weeks. We are really excited about moving (except for the actual moving part) because we really love this house. We brought the kids and let them pick out their rooms so that was fun ( Read more... )
