My absence

I haven't written much on this blog lately. It's certainly not that my life doesn't provide plenty of blog juice, I could fill a book. It's more about the lack of time I seem to have these days. My blog focus has shifted to our homeschool blog and the cloth diaper blog.

A couple of weeks ago I made this blog private. After many emails wondering what had happened and requests to be a reader I have decided to make it public again. Many of the emails were thanking me for bringing to light many topics that helped other moms. The main one being car seat safety. I think it's time for another one of those :)

So, "Welcome back, Me!"

Annoying things today

1) Cash for Clunkers. Really now. WAKE UP PEOPLE! GAAAHHHH! I am not sure I need to elaborate anymore. Stupid, dumb, ignorant idea. How about forgiving some student loans instead??

2) Beer summit. Really now. GAAAHHHH! I'm a bit repetitive but WAKE UP PEOPLE! I didn't have much affection for Obama to begin with but after seeing him drink a Bud Light (thank you news, as if I really care what beer Obama prefers) I think my approval level sunk to a negative number.

3) Disobedience. Yes, shocking. What part of this statement does not make sense to you: "You are going to play outside for a looong time...loooong time. And you are not going to come inside a million times to get something you "forgot"." Pretty clear, right? After shooing the little angels outside they literally were back inside in LESS THAN A MINUTE! In the 30 minutes they've been out there they have come back 3 times. I've think the horns that grew out of my head scared them enough to stay outside.

They say when you write things should be in 3s so I'll stop there before I begin to sound like a whiney, madwoman.

To balance out those annoyances:

1) Michael and I were invited to the "Art Gallery" at Trinity Baptist Church. Haley and Haven participated in ArtDayz and today they showed off their creations.

.... hang on someone just came inside. Gotta go breathe fire.

2) God answered a huge prayer in a very amazing way!

3) I had fajitas for dinner last night, they were mouth-watering, and I got to eat it again for lunch.
