Here goes this week’s report. You can read more about my journey beginning with Week 1. Feel free to join me and Crystalin this journey. DAILY quiet time: It’s been a whirlwind week. We’ve traveled 3 of the past 4 days. WOW!! I may not have been able to read on my computer daily, but [...]
Mr. Mouse quietly tip-toes to the side of my bed. He stares at me for a moment before stroking my arm and then I hear, “Mommy? Mommy? You wake?” Oh sweet boy…it’s only 6am. Do I look awake? UGH!! My feet hit the floor in utter protest, yet they carry me to the restroom to [...]
April Fool’s Day is just around the corner. And last year I was feeling particularly saucy. Now, I don’t usually play practical jokes on anyone, not because they’re not funny…but I’m not good at them! So last year, I really just wanted to pull a fun prank.
