Journal Prompt: Do you like to exercise? Go to the gym? Take long walks? Each Tuesday, I am going to be offering prompts or ideas. If you don't write in your journal regularly - I am going to encourage you to write just ONCE A WEEK and answer the question/idea that I give on Tuesdays. These ideas hopefully will spark a memory and you will be able to capture that in what you write/record so that it can be left for your children/grandchildren/family/friends. Give as much detail as you can when answering. Will you do this for me? Will you do this for your families? You can write it down in a journal, you can type it up on a computer or journaling software, you can take a recorder and talk, you can videotape your answers, you can even scrap a page with the journaling. It doesn't ... [Read More]

Life 2011 | Week 1
Monday, December 27, 2010 I'm so excited about my new Wii Fit! I can tell its going to be so great for me. This week will be full of playing on the Wii for sure! Tuesday, December 28, 2010 It's actually been so fun to find such great toys scattered around the house lately! The kids have really been having so much fun and its been a really great season! Wednesday, December 29, 2010 More beautiful snow! It's been nice to not have to go anywhere and just stay inside, drinking hot chocolate and being with my family. Thursday, December 30, 2010 On Christmas Eve, Joey made a huge list of things to do during this Christmas break with the kids. We have just about got through everything and the kids have loved having the list right on Joey's dry erase board. They each have ... [Read More]
Life 365 | Week 30
Monday, July 19, 2010 I don't know if it is just that its hot or what, but I really haven't wanted to cook lately. I usually don't mind the cooking (but I do HATE HATE HATE the cleaning up part). Joey will be working really late all week as they have a project deadline and they will be getting dinner brought into work each night, so I won't have to feed him this week. So today, I just decided we were going to have McDonalds for dinner and the kids were so excited to get a happy meal! Tuesday, July 20, 2010 The best part about summer is getting wet! And the kids enjoyed over an hour of sprinkler fun in the yard today! I just love seeing those big smiles on their faces. Wednesday, July 21, 2010 I had a bad case of indigestion/heartburn today. I ... [Read More]
Life 365 | Week 25
Monday, June 14, 2010 Another week of soccer camp! JJ and I took Beth to soccer this morning and then we walked around the 1 1/4 mile track they have there. It was good to get some exercise and I really need to remember to put that it in my schedule! Tuesday, June 15, 2010 JJ's first day of summer school was today. I feel so grateful that he had the opportunity to do this. I really think it helps him and its nice to have things to do in the summer! After his school we headed to the high school for the FREE LUNCH FOR KIDS that they have going every weekday this summer! Another thing to be grateful for! Wednesday, June 16, 2010 I am feeling so glad that this summer has had so many rainy days so far. I love the chill in the air and the beauty of overcast clouds. The kids and I ... [Read More]
Project 365 | Week 38
Monday, September 14, 2009 I had my laptop open on the desk and I was doing dishes. I knew I had left a water cup in the bedroom, so I went and got it and on my way through the living room, I tripped over Joey's desk chair and the leftover water from the cup went directly into my laptop's computer! I couldn't believe my bad luck, I tried to dry it out and it worked for a little while with an external keyboard, but then it just wouldn't work. I'm so sad because we just don't have the money to fix it right now. Tuesday, September 15, 2009 Chili for dinner and smiles all around. Beth had a Pajama day and stayed in her pjs all day and I didn't know until after I took these photos that she matched her brother's shirt! Wednesday, September 16, 2009 I'm really glad that I ...
