Anyone see where I lost my marbles?

Speaking of late, it’s 2:05 am and I can’t seem to find my red pen so I apologize for typos ahead of time.   I had a crying baby who is now sleeping.  He was followed by B.M. who has a new molar coming in. It was hurting her enough to wake her up.  Gave her [...]

Poor hubby has been so very supportive with everything being upside down lately because of my mom’s condition.  Even after settling for take-out chicken that wasn’t from his favorite place.  He offered to go to my mom’s house this morning to take down the trash we forgot to take down when we left.  We missed [...]

First of all, a very happy birthday to my girl, B.M.  She turned 10 on Sunday.  We did celebrate on time with Mass in the morning, chicken dinner with all the fixin’s in the evening, followed by triple chocolate cake and cookies & cream ice cream.  Earlier in the morning she recieved her gifts: a [...]

I’m sure there are more out there, but I’ve just started looking. Hopefully it may help someone else.

We had the follow-up from B.M.’s labwork yesterday at 9am. For the most part, her labs are coming back ok. The problem with autoimmune disorders is that labs can take months to show changes indicating problems even though the person is having symptoms. So, as far as that goes, we don’t have answers yet. However, [...]

My friend Emily has updated her blog. Please continue to pray for baby Matthew, his family and for the team of doctors handling the care for them.

No doubt about it, Texas is hot this time of year.  How hot is it, you ask?  Take a look at what the reading was when I got in the truck and turned it on:

And yes, that is a poor, lost polar bear on my rearview mirror. Even though the actual temperature reading the newsman got [...]
