Everyday life

I’m a single parent

March 17, 2012

I’ve been trying to figure out how to write this post for weeks.  I’ve written many things, only to delete them.  Angry, sad, depressed, confused.  All of these emotions screaming more loudly than others as I write.  All of them reflecting the emotional roller coaster that I didn’t sign up for but have been living [...]

and now some visuals

January 12, 2012

  This is where I’ve spent a good portion of my day.  Between running after Bella, washing dishes, and doing some laundry, I’ve been sitting right here.  Listening to the rain lightly sprinkle the roof.  Sipping on coffee and green tea while trying to finish this cross stitch project.  I started it right before Christmas [...]

Just words.

January 10, 2012

Hello, dear blog world. Oh how I miss you.  Happy New Year, Merry Christmas, and I’m probably sure I missed Thanksgiving as well. I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season. We’re doing fairly decently over here. Bills are paid, foods is on the table, laughter is abound.  So maybe we are a [...]

surviving on peanut butter

Surviving on peanut butter sandwiches has pretty much been the deal the last two weeks.  They have satisfied my hunger and the unsatisfiable sweet tooth I’ve had since that chocolate cake.  I’ve probably consumed more than a healthy share of it.  Seriously, I polished off one container and working on another.  The small ones though, [...]

I am so tired right now.  So much so that I feel I need some toothpicks to hold open my eye lids.  I wanted to blog though, even if I didn’t have much to say.  The last few weeks have been a blur of waking up ridiculously early at 4:50 am to snag a ride [...]

We went to the zoo last sunday,  a first for Bella and myself.  None of us can wait until the next time comes we take another trip to the zoo.

We had breakfast and a paper courtesy of my mom this morning.  It was a treat.  My mom has been my chauffeur for the last week home from work as David’s vehicle decided to go off to vehicle heaven.  It’s easier for him to just drop me off extra early for work on his way [...]

Had to edit my title.  I seriously thought it was sunday.  I’ve been a knitting machine the last few hours.  Actually quite proud of myself if I may toot my own horn here.  I almost finished a little sweater for Bella last fall, she just kept growing to quickly for me to finish it.  I [...]

Finding our rhythm

August 11, 2011

Finding our rhythm has been a topic I’ve thought over many times since before Bella was even born.  Though it was only recently that I even knew what I was thinking about had a name or label.  I’ve researched Waldorf traditions several times, only becoming frustrated when I didn’t find what I was looking for.  [...]

baseball and hot dogs

July 13, 2011

I wish I had a lot of things to write about here.  Truth be told, I’ve been pretty lazy and haven’t done anything exciting.  Just work, eat, play, sleep,  rinse, and repeat. We did get to go to a baseball game, that was pretty fun. It was a Riverdogs game down in Charleston.  We actually [...]
