Just for fun... Test your Vocabulary!

Your Vocabulary Score: A+
Congratulations on your multifarious vocabulary!You must be quite an erudite person.

It's another Thankful Thursday!

Thinking of all the things I'm grateful for...

1. Sunshine-- even though... folks, I'm a redhead... I burn easily under the best of circumstances now, combine that with the medication I'm taking that increases sensitivity to sunlight... well, that's right 45 minutes outdoors and I was a lobster.

2. My hubby-- he's already found a different job, he's been grilling every night. (I love that so much).

3. My backyard-- I love to sit there and listen and watch my birds (yes, if they eat at my feeders and use my birdbath they become mine) There's a nesting pair of cardinals in lilacs. It's so cool.

4. The stiffness I'm feeling in my legs and back because it means the exercise I'm doing is working for me. I am getting into better shape.

5. The fantastic gift that God gave me in Jesus. What an expression of value, of confidence and faith!

For all these things and more, make me truly grateful, oh Lord!

Thankful Thursday!

The latest from the meteorologists has me singing, dancing, laughing, playing... it'll be 60 by the weekend. Thank you, Jesus! I get my spring back! A month after the equinox, but hey, it's still spring, right? Right!

I'm thankful that dh is interviewing for a new position with good hours, and that will allow him to pursue his doctorate. YAY!!

I'm thankful that ds is staying right on top of his homework issues.

I'm thankful that dd is doing well recovering from her knee injury.

I'm thankful that the sky is blue and it's a sunshine-y day. All around, I'm just generally thankful today.

And you, gentle reader, what are you thankful for on this fantastic Thursday?

10th Anniversary of 29th Birthday!


Yep. I'm 39. I like it. I feel so comfy... and happy. 39 is a good year, let's hope. So far, so good.


Yesterday, dh and the kids cleaned up the whole laundry room, and made food, and dh grilled. It was amazing. And then, today, S-N-O-W! Trust me in April, this is a four letter word! It's horrible.


Supposed to last all week long. It is really frustrating. I mean it! I want spring!!
