Today At Church

This entry is nearly three years old. It's important to me though, so I'm posting it here despite its relative age. Today's service was magical. When Danny and I got there, we sat outside for a little while until the first service ended. I had a donut and some lemonade. It wasn't long, however,... Sign in to see full entry.

A Coincidence?

This entry is nearly three years old. It's important to me though, so I'm posting it here despite its relative age. Warning: Spiritual post ahead. Scoffers and non-believers, move right along. I was supposed to go to church last Sunday with my neighbor Danny. I never managed it, because mom was... Sign in to see full entry.

God Sends A Message

This entry is nearly three years old. It's important to me though, so I'm posting it here despite its relative age. Before I begin, I feel it only fair to warn those who may feel uncomfortable by such a post that this is a spiritual one. It talks about God, faith, beliefs and interpreting of a...

Vampiric Baby

Backdated Entry September 18, 2012 My baby is a vampire. Today has been a day filled with almost crippling exhaustion. I've been tired for the past few days, but I know why on those accounts. I was up late those nights. But I got a good night's sleep last night. I even napped a bit this morning... Sign in to see full entry.

Maternity Monday

Backdated Entry September 18, 2012 I had my very first experience in a maternity store yesterday. On Sunday, I went over to mom's house for the day and ended up spending the night. This is pretty common and I love when it happens. I get sad every time I have to come home. Anyway, on Monday, we went... Sign in to see full entry.

Guide Dog Diagnosis

In early May, my guide dog Tony returned to Guide Dogs for the Blind for some touch up training, and because we both needed a break from guide work for awhile. About a week-and-a-half ago, he started having diarrhea and vomiting issues. Now, Tony's tummy upsets aren't new to me. I switched him from... Sign in to see full entry.

Table Top Baby

My daughter is an official climber. Before getting dinner ready, I popped in an Elmo tape, hit play and went about my business. After cutting up the ham steak and setting the plate on her high chair, I moved around the table to collect my darling daughter. I could hear her clapping her hands. My... Sign in to see full entry.

How Rude!

So, I knew my neighbors were a little stuck up, but really? My friend Sam came over for awhile today so the girls could play and so we could chat about anything and everything. Anyway, Sam's trying to quit smoking, but she's not quite there yet. We stepped out of my patio so she could have a... Sign in to see full entry.

Another Blog?

My writing blog started out as a poetry blog, but now houses a few fiction stories and one stream of consciousness. And I'm finding that I'm not too happy. I'm tempted to just keep it a poetry blog and to create yet another blog for fiction. Here's my issue. If I create a new blog for fictional... Sign in to see full entry.

Eighteen Months

Ayla was eighteen months old yesterday. For some reason, eighteen months is an unspoken milestone in early toddlerhood. Maybe because it's the official one-and-a-half year mark. Ayla's first birthday was on Friday the 13th, and she turned eighteen months on Friday the 13th. So for me, they're linked... Sign in to see full entry.
