Do you crawl on the floor using the small vacuum to vacuum your bedroom so you can vacuum easily around all the stuff you aren't going to move because that would be too much work? Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

Are you so excited that someone actually picked up off the floor and threw away the empty toilet paper roll, then walked down the hallway to pick up the toilet paper spring holder thingy, returned to the bathroom and put toilet paper on it, and hung it "upside" down that you don't even bother to fix it and hang it "the right way" i.e. toilet paper rolls off the top?

Here's the "Spring" run-down. The Dad: Working hard everyday to provide for our family.  Doing a wonderful job of it.  He is as calm and steady as anybody I know.  He has a tremendous work ethic and is always faithful that the Lord will provide.  He teaches the Priests in YM (that includes C, as this is his last year at home)  Those YM love him.  He always gives them something to chew on. He has D4 playing baseball on an all boys team.  He is a great supporter of her, taking her to almost all of her practices, working with her extra and all the good things that come with the experience. He will travel with her to her tournaments, just has he has C for the past 10 years.  He is the official scorekeeper for Alta baseball and is C's biggest fan.  He is a good fan at that.  Supportive, but not overbearing. (I know, I have asked C)  He gives good advice and wants the best for C's baseball season, as this is his last high school season.  He rarely misses a game.  He

What's up with the funny positioning of my poem in the last post?  I can't get it left-side aligned. Weird -

I had no idea that this Johnny Cash song was a Shel Silverstein poem.  I love Johnny Cash.  We are fans at our house.    If you are as well, scroll down to here Johnny Cash serenade you.  "A Boy Named Sue." Shel Silverstein Well, my daddy left home when I was three, and he didn't leave much to Ma and me, just this old guitar and a bottle of booze. Now I don't blame him because he run and hid, but the meanest thing that he ever did was before he left he went and named me Sue. Well, he must have thought it was quite a joke, and it got lots of laughs from a lot of folks, it seems I had to fight my whole life through. Some gal would giggle and I'd get red and some guy would laugh and I'd bust his head, I tell you, life ain't easy for a boy named Sue. Well, I grew up quick and I grew up mean. My fist got hard and my wits got keen. Roamed from town to town to hide my shame, but I made me a vow to the moon and the stars, I'd search the honk

I really, really love my kids.  I have five of the most interesting, witty (I like wit, I see it as a sign of intelligence), intelligent, right-minded, mildly helpful children a mother could hope to have.  (I am certain you do to.  We all do, that is the blessing of being a parent.  We get to be biased.)  I have given birth to 5 children. (This is an important point because I also have 4 children I have not given birth to)  Boy, girl, girl, girl, girl!!  By the third child's ultrasound I was mildly disappointed it was a girl, by the fourth child's ultrasound I drove home in tears because she was a girl, and by the fifth child I didn't even have an ultrasound.  I don't think I could have taken the disappointment.  I DID however believe I was going to have a boy.  Holy Crap what a blow to my psyche.  How could this have happened to me.  Heavenly Father, I don't like girls, remember?  He does have a sense of humor.  I got hoodwinked.  Many years have passed and I no

Verses I like: Proverbs 13:7  - There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches. Proverbs 13:11 -  Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase. Proverbs 13:12 -  Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.   I don't have anything particularly profound to say about these verses.  I think they speak for themselves.  That's what I like about Proverbs.  They are easily memorized.  They are pearls of wisdom.  Sometimes it's the little things.             

I was in charge of FHE on Sunday.  We watched this . It was more or less the lazy man's way of doing home evening, but what can I say?  I was lazy.  We watched about 1/2 hour of the Jungle section.  We laughed, we were grossed out, we were amazed.  God created it all.  Heavenly Father organized every living thing on this earth.  Genesis 1: 9-13 and Genesis 1: 24-25 in relevant part to what I was pondering.  Remarkable.  Some of the creatures -  ooh golly!! Sick!  After we were done watching fungus grow, we headed upstairs for brownies.
