Project 365: Week 17

This has been a very exciting week, picture-wise, at the Double F Ranch (that’s what my hubs calls our house, because our two last names start with F. And now you know). I got out my camera manual, learned how to change the settings, and went to town. It was […]

Happy Friday!

Hi all! So, I didn’t get a Gluten Free Friday post up this week, because, well, I’m tired. I may have been slacking on taking my thyroid meds lately, and it might be starting to zap my energy. It can’t be the baby this time, because he’s finally started sleeping […]

I’m Not A Hairstylist, But I Play One On TV.

My husband is mad at me. Because I did this:

If you’re not sure why this is significant, this is what she looked like yesterday:

If it were up to him, her hair might be down to her ankles.

Shedding the Weight.

I no longer think of myself as a “widow”. I don’t check the widow box on government forms, I don’t include “single mom” in my bio.

For two years, I did. That was how people saw me, and I’m sure, whispered about me. In small-town America, your most important identity is […]

Henry had some Easter money burning a hole in his pocket, so he and I (and Ervin) went on a […]

Welcome!

HI!! I’m so glad you found me! I set up shop here, got myself a cup of coffee and hunkered down to paint my toenails, waiting for company.

This is my new blog-home. I’ve simplified with a fresh, new look and name, and want you to make yourself comfortable! (I’ve already […]

In Between

“Mama, can I sleep with you?”As my six and a half year old drifts off to sleep next to me, I can’t help but stare at that thick, brown, little boy hair and think about how he’s really not so little anymore.He still wants to sneak in my room on […]
