another fortune.

So, while drinking my Green Apple Soda today I read my newest fortune.

"You will get the practical help you have been seeking"

hmmmmmm.

i didn't know I had been seeking any help.

Maybe it is that i was in need of a babysitter for monday night, but I got that practical help arranged the morning before I even bought my Jones Sodas.

So, yet again, I am left to wonder how my fortune will come true.

and my next question is.....how soon?

do I have to wait only minutes or hours until the practical help arrives to save the day or do I need to wait for months..years...?    

it doesn't give me a timeline, so i honestly think I won't know if it is ever the fortune being fulfilled or what. 

oh, fortunes are more stressful then they should be.

So, I'm gonna go now.

i need to rest my brain from trying to figure it out. 

maybe i shouldn't have had a soda today.

or maybe i'll just ignore the fortune next time.

Quality time with my valentine.

Happy valentines day.

Yes, Valentines Day was 2 days ago, but aren't we supposed to show love to eachother EVERY day??

anyway,

what did I do with my Valentine to celebrate on that day?

I made heart shaped meatloaf.  hahahahaha!!!!

seriously, and I truly L'dOL as I formed it and started it baking, and again when I took it out of the oven and showed it to Dan. 

but on the Sunday, the 13th, was when Dan and I did somthing special.

the kids went to their grandparents' house for the afternoon and Dan and I came home, ate lunch, got our snowpants, boots, coats, mittens, toques (stocking caps - for my american followers) on and outside we went.

we worked hard for 2 hours.

Finally...there it was.  

something I had always wanted to make.

when the kids came home the boy LOVEd it. 

Our igloo.

do we really grasp God's love?

I watched this video yesterday.

i cried at one part(at about 8:48), I couldn't help it.  I have kids.  I have a son . 

wow - do I have the right to ask God for anything else? yet I do every day!

God's love is ultimate.

Happy Valentines Day.

A little bit of this, a little bit of that...

Hello Faithful followers!

i greatly apologize for my lack of mad writing skills over the past....

however long it has been since I last posted.

you are the faithful few.  

and I am thankful for you. 

(although how faithful you are is still to be decided- Tim, when did you last read my blog??)

because of that I am going to - 

not promise, as I don't want to disappoint you by breaking my promise - 

guarantee to you that I will attempt to maybe try to write more often. 

so, why have i not been here?

life. 

I know, it is crazy to think that life could get in the way of my computer time, and especially my blogging and social networking.  

for I know how important those things are to the daily grind of living.  

but I am sorry, I had other things to do.

playing in the snow

spending time with the kids

baking

cleaning (the not so fun aspect of life)

yes, watching Dragon's Den

eating

sleeping

being sick

those are a few of the things I did instead of sitting in front of the computer.

Dan's home.  

Gotta run.

I'll be back sooner than later...I think....
