Stream-of-Consciousness
Monday, October 18, 2010 at 10:06PM I haven't posted in a while...I just don't know what to share.
I made banana bread tonight, and I mixed it by hand. I think it's going to be delicious. It smells like buttery banana-y goodness.
Going to counseling is hard.
Why can't I get my laundry put away?
I swept a good bit of our floor surfaces today. We have a lot of sweepable floor space.
I am going to The Children's Place in the morning, and I know exactly what sweater I'm going to get for Eliana...it is too, too cute. I'm a sucker for sweaters, especially if they have stripes.
I don't have a dinner plan for tomorrow. I need to check that Q and A post and look again at what recipes you shared with me.
I haven't been taking many pictures. I miss my big flash, but it met it's maker. Not really. I am pretty sure it's fixable, but it takes me a while to get those kinds of things taken care of. (And Dad, don't feel bad. It's totally my fault.)
Christian prayed a sweet prayer with me tonight, while holding my hand. He is a special boy.
I find that I am looking forward to moving. However, this always happens. I think the new place will be great, and then once we are in the new place, I mourn the loss of all of the wonderful things about the old place (that I hated and couldn't wait to get out of). This time I am prepared for the looking-back-through-rose-colored-glasses phenomenon. I will be sure to have plenty of chocolate on hand for when the time comes.
It's always time for chocolate, though. Even Eliana knows this. She asks for ice cream or Hershey's kisses around 9am most days.
I don't give that to her so early!! What kind of mom do you think I am? I wait until at least 11am.
And just so this post isn't entirely black and white...
Michaela took some pictures of Eliana the other day...
She is a total cheesecake.
Christian has lost both of his front teeth. His grin is nothing short of fantastic.
He makes penguins out of clay, and seriously? They look just like penguins.
Michaela...golden, sweet, dear girl.
I hope you have a wonderful week!

Goodness, I am behind the times. I did not know you were moving and I hope you are doing ok. Your kids are so precious! And chocolate is always delicious.
Counseling IS hard, but good. Very, very good.
You still haven't told us where you're moving. Different house? Different town? Different state?
I need the details!
I love your rug! And I know how you feel about moving. We've done it 9 times and this is the place we've lived in the longest. And it's the hardest!
Penguins rock. As do you.
As will your new home, once you settle in.
See? Now it's been clarified, nothing to worry about!
looks like you have a lot going on! When i was in counseling they wanted me to do so many hard things which at the time was so hard but when I look back they were so wise! Keep up the good work!
and I just want you to know that I still wear my fly tshirt like once a week. So glad you sent it! :)
