It has been awhile (I think 2 weeks) since I have posted any thoughts about Gone with the Wind. My thoughts throughout the first 2/3 of the book were running to Scarlett and her delusions about Ashley. I find myself wondering, is she just naive, has he mislead her, is there something we are missing? […]
Simple Woman’s Daybook FOR TODAY: March 9, 2010… Outside my window…ahhh, finally the sun is shining! We have had a few days of sun and slightly warmer temps. The sidewalks are filled with draining water as the snow melts into tiny rivers of water. Spring will be here soon! I am thinking…about the book I […]
Over at I ♥ Faces this week they are asking for photos that fit the bill for their theme of “Jump for Joy”. Three thoughts come to mind when I think of photos I have taken that would fit this. The first one is the big trampoline at my Uncle Henry and Aunt Sue’s house, […]
Almost every day both Jayden and Chloe work out of a Language Arts/Grammar Techniques kind of book. Chloe is nearing the end of hers and instead of the usual fill-in-the-blanks and multiple choice type activities, it has different types of writings for her to practice. Things such as compare and contrast writing, a friendly letter, […]
Here is another revelation in my quest to “Learn Something“: Jayden recently decided to take a real stand about something. It started with his underwear. Suddenly, any underwear with characters on them were no longer acceptable. He only wanted to wear the white ones. Apparently, characters are “for babies”. On that note, I went out […]
I was recently searching for a picture for a photo content over at I ♥ Faces and I came across a series of pictures that I took in June of 2009. They were taken at my Uncle Henry and Aunt Sue’s house when we were there for a family picnic. Separately, I don’t think the […]
Winter has hit us full force here in Western NY! I believe we had more snow this past weekend than we have had all winter! Schools were closed on Friday due to the 14 or so inches we received in a short period of time. What is weird about the whole thing is that it […]
Simple Woman’s Daybook FOR TODAY: March 2, 2010… Outside my window…the world seems still and quiet. Quite a contrast to my miserable 3 year old who is screaming at her brother not to make her toast! I am thinking…I don’t feel that well and would love to curl back up in bed and have my […]
I ♥ Faces is having their “Hilarious Outtakes” contest this week. The rules are a little bit different as they are allowing 5 photos instead of just one. Unfortunately for me, most of my real “outtakes” were deleted before they ever made it to my computer! But I am sure with a little digging I […]
The phone rang at my house on the morning of February 25th. As I answered the phone I heard not only my mother, but even my father singing “Happy Birthday” to me. I commented on how surprised I was that he was singing as well. He responded by saying, “You must be pretty special for […]
