Bad cell phone picture of a painting I'm working on tonight:it is a quick photo- and I didn't notice at first that I was casting a shadow on the piece when I took the picture- hopefully tomorrow I'll have a more finished version of it. We'll see. Nikkie
A blog to share
http://www.cleanmama.netI ran across this website a few months ago. It is a pretty cool site about hosehold organization; and it has printables!! I love it when I can find a website that has charts and things that I can print- especially when they are similar to charts I've thought to make myself, only I don't… Continue reading A blog to share
Memorable Moments # 2
Just a couple of Evan ones tonight:Monday January 27, 2014Tonight I was tucking Evan into bed- he asked me to wait (which is not unusual; generally he wants me to do something for him so that he can stay up.) “but I’m tiiiieeerrrd” I whined at him bouncing up and down on the balls of… Continue reading Memorable Moments # 2
The Hunger Games: Book Reaction
(skip down to the stars if you want the actual book review- and not just the steps that led to me picking it up and reading it)My first brush with this series was after the 3rd book in the trilogy had been released. My husband sent me a message asking what I thought about the… Continue reading The Hunger Games: Book Reaction
Last Day of Jan!
This has been crazy hard!! I'm hoping it'll get easier as time goes on. Today I took the day off from stress- tomorrow I'll jump back in. It was kinda nice to just hang out with kids and ignore reality for a day. I hope I didn't put myself to far behind and hope when… Continue reading Last Day of Jan!
Poor Baby
Yesterday I spent the whole day feeling awful from a headache- a bad headache I kinda felt fluish- so stayed home from school and rested. At about 10 I felt better so was trying to get some homework done. Right when I declared that I was going to bed; Avi woke up and started crying.… Continue reading Poor Baby
Overwhelmed
Tonight is going to be more of a venting post for myself- therapy I suppose. I'm only 3 and a half weeks into this semester and I'm already doubting my ability to finish strong. It isn't that I doubt my ability to draw- through a lot of hard work and tears I've managed to get… Continue reading Overwhelmed
Roman Woman
I don't have a lot to talk about today- I pretty much spent the whole day working on this:I wouldn't say that it is 'finished' but it is as done as it is going to get before I turn it in tomorrow- largely because I've been working on it for to long and am zoning… Continue reading Roman Woman
Cute Kidlets
As most Monday's go I'm pretty beat and do not have much to say- so I'm sharing some silly pictures of my kids. I took them at the end of last year- unfortunately neither one took it seriously. BUT that is how they are- and how I'll forever remember them at this age- goofy little… Continue reading Cute Kidlets
"It's not a big deal"
(image found through Google search)A few weeks ago my daughter and I had some sort of misunderstanding. She was hurt and offended by something that I no longer remember. What I do remember was coming out of the kitchen to see her drag a blanket over to her howling spot and then sit down and… Continue reading "It's not a big deal"
