quick points or I might never write:
trying to see how much I can stash from the grocery budget this month seeing as we have a freezer so full of meat and veggies right now that it almost doesn’t close
I want/need a better camera and only have about $100 saved (reason #2 for the above money [...]

Last weeks meals were good. I browned 2 pounds of hamburger with some veggies and started adding tomato sauce and spices. In the end I had 4 quarts of sauce. We used one and froze the rest so that we can have a spaghetti-sauce related meal once a week with a little less work on my [...]

Aside from swim meets, family get-togethers, and school I have been cooking meals and sleeping off a cold. Well, we all have been dealing with the cold. Chamomile steam treatments help keep my head clear, the tea goes down nice with a bit of honey to soothe my throat, and lots of broth based soups taste [...]

You guessed it. Still so busy.
soccer tournaments in 40 degree weather with wind chills near freezing (Liz’s team did great)
first swim meet (Jane finally logged a time in butterfly, big smile there!)
The twins are learning so much, too much some days as they are managing to get into some mischief. If they keep up at [...]

I am not an authority on much anything, but I am always willing to share what I do know. Denise over at There Is Always Room for One More asked a few questions about ordering a side of beef for the first time. I’ve been there a couple times and offered to share what I know. [...]

I don’t know why, but I just am not thinking to come here and write. Well, I do know why:
vacation- went south for a week and enjoyed a bit of time away from the daily to-do
homeschool- for every day of school the girls do, I have at least one hours worth of administrative time that [...]

I feel bad for any readers still hanging around. I forget my camera all the time so I have no photos to dictate a direction. I feel like I have nothing to say…those who know me in real life are probably shocked.
Running: With the exception of missing two runs last week, I am still at [...]

Sorry for the unannounced blog vacation. Lots to do, too much really, but it can’t be helped.
I was able to spend some time with my sister before she heads out to Vegas for her internship with Cirque Du Soleil. Wish I could go out and visit her while she is there as well, though finances [...]

Just a quick shout out to my dad to say Happy Birthday…he’s the most dedicated reader I have and his Birthday always seems to get sandwiched in between all kinds of stuff.
I hope you enjoy your time golfing this weekend! An extra round and a son-in-law to clobber drive the cart can’t be too bad of [...]

I was a bit fearful to start week three. Those three minute straight runs scared me. I am a self-proclaimed sissy…especially when it comes to sports activities and sweating.
It wasn’t so bad, though, so now I have moved on to dreading week four. The three minute runs actually feel pretty good and when I am [...]
