THE HAVEN CONFERENCE ~ and a well deserved nap!!
The LOML and I got home from the Haven Conference in Atlanta at 4:00 this morning. So if this post doesn’t make any sense it’s because I’m napping while I’m typing!! As a matter of fact, it’s 1:30 in the afternoon and I’m still in my pj’s! The Haven Conference was great!! I learned way […]

This is my fifth day of torture dieting, and I haven’t lost a single […]

A PRETTY “SHADE” OF GREEN
We are SOOOOOOOOOO enjoying our new kitchen counters and sink. The LOML said sleeping in the kitchen was a very bad idea but I really wanted to!! Me and Son #4 did a little project today I thought I would share with you. A while back we painted the door and drawer pulls black with […]
