My husband has threatened to de-link me if I don’t post something so I’d better get crackin’. It seems like I have disappeared from blogdom. What have I been doing? selling Partylite – I decided to enter the direct selling market in March. I’ve been doing it for about a month now and am enjoying it so far. I thought I’d start now while I still have 1/2 a year […] Read More
It’s interesting how babies tend to bring forth a whole myriad of nick-names. Here’s what we’ve got in our family for Lynae (everyone’s come up with something different): Matthew> cutie-wutie David> nae-nae (pronounced NAY-NAY) Dad> little sweetie Mom> little miss poopy pants There are others> fussy-fuss, grumpy girl, pretty girl I was wondering why we come up with so many nick-names for our babies. As if it’s not enough to […] Read More

Mike Fisher 1972 – 2002 It was 5 years ago today that my first husband passed away. It’s been very weird thinking about it. It feels like such a long time ago. Maybe 5 years is a long time. So much has happened and changed in my life. I’m married again and have a new beautiful baby girl. When Mike passed away, I wondered if there was any hope of having the […] Read More
I’m not an ‘arts & crafts’ kind of person and I’ll admit I don’t do a lot of playing with my boys with their toys. But one thing that has always been important to me is reading. I’ve always read to the boys. It’s been part of our bedtime routine (this has been somewhat derailed with moving, having a baby, and Christmas, but we’re getting back into it now). I […] Read More
Ok, here’s my new look. Feminine enough for you? I found it kind of amusing that everyone seemed to like to look that my husband picked, but I didn’t. lol. I used to be a real ‘tomboy’ growing up – there was hardly a feminine bone in my body. I’ve changed a lot since then, but I’m still not really “girlie girlie” with lots of pink everywhere. I’ve been kind […] Read More
Because my husband ‘blew up’ my blog! Let me explain. Among other things my husband designs websites, but he also hosts some as well. He’s going to be moving the websites to a different provider and was using my blog as a test guinea pig. When he tried to move it over, he had to upgrade to a different version of WordPress (the blogging software I use) and when he […] Read More
Do you ever just WANT to be mad at your kids? After they’ve been rude, disrespectful, called you names – basically been downright mean? After all you’ve done for them - make meals, buy them clothes, pay the bills, give them a place to sleep, love them over and over again – and this is how they treat you! Its almost as if for all your kindness they spit in your face… Spit […] Read More
My husband has gone to the lake for some much needed R & R. He’d been talking about going for a while (he usually heads up there at least once a winter). He hasn’t quite been himself lately, so I told him to go! I kind of like it when he takes off. I think its important for me to get some alone time with the boys. Plus I’m even […] Read More
