I had a frustrating appointment yesterday where the grandmother was not going to implement any of my therapy suggestions. She doesn’t speak English very well, but I can tell that if I had told her the suggestions in her primary language, she would not have implemented them either. She is going to do what she… [Continue Reading]
New animal Quest: Bats in a cave
I have decided on a new animal quest for this year, since I achieved my last quest. My new quest is to see bats in their cave. I have seen wild bats flying around in the evening before, but I have not been to a cave where bats congregate. I have seen one bat in… [Continue Reading]
Update on spelling bee
I mentioned in my last post that my daughter would have to go to the county spelling bee during spring break. She successfully bailed on that. The other contestant from her school wasn’t able to go, and my daughter’s teacher asked if she was going, and my daughter said that she didn’t want to. The… [Continue Reading]
Busy Busy Busy with Therapy
I have been ignoring this blog because I have been excessively busy building up and working on my therapy site. It is called Therapy Fun Zone, which is where I post therapy activities. It is very time consuming to create these activities. Specially my pencil adventures. It takes me hours of work on the computer… [Continue Reading]
Photo Cards=Good, vs Bad Christmas Letter Contest
Have you sent out your holiday cards yet? I haven’t. In fact I was debating whether I would send any out at all. I would like to, but life is so busy, and money is tight.

I worked on organizing the office/guest room because we are having guests in a couple of… [Continue Reading]
Things that make me happy
I decided to make it my mission on Thursday to take pictures of things that are beautiful and that make me happy. It was weird carrying my camera around to the different schools, but I have some pretty things. The first one is not one that I saw that day, but it was a really… [Continue Reading]
I appreciate beauty in the little things.
I find that I am now appreciating beauty in the little things again. When my husband was gone, I had a very tough time, and for a bit I was just barely surviving, not really enjoying. Now that he is back, things are easier, and I am happier in general, and I am all of… [Continue Reading]
worst 6 months ever
This deployment has been horrible. One bad thing happening after another. I have just been hunkering down and riding it out. We are finally settling down, and my husband will be home in less than 2 weeks. Man it has been a long ordeal. Things are going better, and I am looking forward to getting… [Continue Reading]
What my husband will be driving when done with training.
I saw this on I wish Wednesday on blah, blah, blah, blog, and it is funny. This is what my husband will have to be driving when he is done with training and his knees give out, and his back gives out. (I’m just kidding, he may have to wait till he is actually old.)… [Continue Reading]
