Bananas Are Back! (And So Am I)

Well, hi there! Long time no see! I know. I’ve been MIA for a while. My Dad even asked me if I’d stopped blogging. That’s a big NO! I have not stopped blogging. I just…stopped writing for a bit. Honestly, I don’t know what’s going on with me. I’m so … Continue reading

God’s Providence

Yesterday’s recipe was a surprise to me. I wrote it and scheduled to post it last week – and forgot all about it! Just to give a little update, things are better. First, I want to thank you all for your concern, prayers, and insight. After the last post, I … Continue reading

I Don’t Know What To Do

It was another long night with Zac. At the end of yesterdays post I wrote about Zac’s sudden weird eye swelling late Sunday night/early Monday morning. So yesterday I spent a TON of hours on the phone with pharmacists and doctors. Both boys are now scheduled to see the allergist … Continue reading

I Hate Leaving My Kids

July worked really well for my work schedule, in the end. Even if I hadn’t called out sick, I only would have worked 8 days total. Five of those days, though, started last Wednesday. I didn’t get home until almost 2:00a.m. Sunday night/Monday morning, and I am still  exhausted from … Continue reading

On the Mend

Good news! The kids are entirely over their colds. Not even runny noses left. So-so news: Darrel and I still aren’t 100% better. Though I didn’t want to, I had to call out sick for work this weekend. Thursday and Friday I was a walking zombie, but by Saturday, if … Continue reading
