What a Special Day!

June 29th. It is my 25th wedding anniversary and my son's 19th birthday! Yes, that's right on the same day! I am so thankful for my guys.

The GuitarMan was my first child. He brings such a sweet joy to my life! Obviously there is always music when he is here for he loves the guitar. He has a dry wit about him that will surprise you! He is one of those people who has a quiet presence yet can turn right around and be the life of the party. Now that he is getting older our relationship is shifting from one of parent/child to one of trusted friend and confidante. But Mama will always be Mama! I am so thankful that he knows he can come to me and be met with respect and love! I can't imagine my life without him.

I am so blessed to be married to The FisherMan! It's hard to believe I have been committed to him for 25 years now and have loved him even longer. He loves me and daily prays for me and asks the Lord to guide our family. He encourages me, he protects me, and is always there for me. And oh, how he can make me laugh! He is an awesome husband and father. I am so thankful for everything he does, for everything he is.


You're My Best Friend

by Tim Mcgraw


I never had no one that I could count on

I been that down so many times

I was tired of hurtin' so tired of searchin'

Til you walked into my life

It was a feelin' I'd never known

And for the first time I didn't feel alone



You stand by me

You believe in me

Like nobody ever has

When my world goes crazy

You're right there to save me

You make me see how much I have
You're more than a lover

There could never be another

To make me feel the way you do

Oh, we just get closer

I fall in love all over

Every time I look at you

I don't know where I'd be

Without you here with me

Life with you makes perfect sense

You're my best friend

You're my best friend

The Season of Pregnancy (updated)

I know. I have been neglecting this blog. Horribly. That's not the only thing that has been thrown by the wayside lately! It is only for a season though. Pregnancy means you must be patient with yourself and accept that sometimes you must let things slide. That also means that you have to plan in order to conserve your energy. I know if I am going somewhere later today then I don't need to rush around and try to get a lot done in the morning. Priorities must be in order. Although the morning sickness is better it isn't totally gone at this point. Whoever named it that anyway? The main thing I have been dealing with is fatigue. My blog shows it. My laundry shows it. My house shows it. Ack, everywhere shows it! I simply do not have the energy to do the bending up and down required to truly clean up, do laundry, and the vacuuming/sweeping etc. It's quite depressing actually! So I do a little here, do a little there. I manage the necessities such as homeschooling, cooking, ...

Latest on GuitarMan

I haven't made a practice of sharing photos with a full facial view on here. However the GuitarMan isn't too worried about that LOL! With many of you praying for him I thought you might like to have an idea of who he is. He is still in a lot of pain. His fingers are all black and blue and his entire hand is swollen. His hand is cut straight across his fingers and across the bottom of his hand. Once again, very obvious what could have happened. He's blown away by everyone caring and checking in him and the prayers on his behalf. He says to thank you all!

Power Bills

We lucked out last month on our power bill. We received a credit on our bill which helped tremendously. A lot of folks were shocked at how high their bills were, however. I can't blame them! Some of the figures I heard were outrageous! $500-600, one even $1200! One thing that got me was that many of these people work outside the home and their children are in school or daycare so the house stands empty all day. Not only that, but their families are much smaller so things like the washer, dryer, or stove would not be used as frequently. Shouldn't their bill be lower than ours? I think it has everyone trying to come up with ways to save on power. There are some things that are a given. Good insulation and windows go a long way towards helping lower a bill. When we first moved into our home the windows were very old. Some were cracked or even broken. The church eventually replaced them which was a huge blessing! But what were we to do in the meantime? Well, one way is to buy th...
