Stuff
(life, with scattered oddities)
One boy, six seconds
Trev took Roo out for her very first snowshoeing expedition and it lasted 3 minutes and 24 seconds, the end.
a marriage made in the very best trailer park that heaven has to offer.
A nice, quiet place.
Today we are playing games and drinking cocoa and laughing. The snow is so deep, I cannot imagine the melt and yet I know it will be here before long. We taste the tomatoes from summer and we are so very glad.
My breathing was horribly strained last week but is good today; I am seeing a specialist in a month and am hoping she can provide some insight into what is going on in me. For now, I am cleaning all the imperfect bits out of my diet in the hopes of boosting my immune system more; I have been off sugar for two weeks and am feeling quite good. In a few weeks or so, I will add honey and syrup back into my diet and see how that goes. The first few days held the most cravings, but it gets easier by the day.
If you could see me now, you would see me in my jeans, long john top and mussed hair, all red cheeked and clutching my little seed catalogues in fierce desperation.
What are you clinging to these days?

OH! The Barbie and The Spam! :tongue: I’m clinging to H. and art because the sun ain’t doing me no good right now!!
I’m clinging to the realization that there IS good in each day, each day IS a gift , no matter what troubles fill up our hearts. Life can be hard but when the sun shines ( literally and figuratively <<G>>) it’s ALL worth it.
I cling to every ray of sunshine that manages to peak through these gray Wisconsin clouds. I drink it up.
Love all your pics as usual and especially barbie and spam. I’m clinging to the mud in my diningroom. Hoping it evaporates well enough to get some seeds planted for the garden. I managed to scrap some dirt yesterday but it’s really mud. The cats keep looking at it and I’ve had to cover it with deer netting. Oh the challenges of the farmer!
Beautiful!
Honey is supposed to be good for the immune system…right?
I hope you feel better
I’m clinging to the peaches in this can…oh sorry kidding
seriously I am just clinging to one day at a time
lol. the barbie and spam is priceless!
I hope you feel better soon mama (((hugs))) spring is coming!
My son and the fact that winter HAS to end soon………
I am clinging to my wool yarn and my dreams of seed planting!
I’m glad the diet is helping out a little. I hope your specialist helps you figure it all out. :love:
:so-cool: Quitting sugar is always good and was so hard for me, the one time I did it. Good for you! The snow looks so magical from down here, where we don’t have to move it or feel its chill.
I’m clinging to the possibility of a new crafting table and to my boys.
roo’s little snow shoes are the cutest!!!!
Clinging to the fact that spring does come every year followed by summer…..it HAS to ’cause I am tired of being cold.
Roo’s face is absolutely PRICELESS in that pic! LOL
I am clinging to the fact that everyone in my house got sick but me. I am grateful for that, and it propels me through all the mundane things a mom’s got to do to keep a sick house running.
Love you! Hope your specialist can help get your breathing back to capacity.
The toilet, hahaha! :blushing: (morning sickness humor)I’m :ROTFL: at the spam and the barbie. I’m dreaming of summer tomatoes too. :flirty:
I am clinging to hope that you will get better and come visit those other mothers sometimes.
Clinging to moments to steal away by MYSELF:) Aren’t Barbie and SPAM essentially made from the same thing anyway?
The knowledge that spring always comes, and today the temps shot up and the sun is out.
Hope the specialist is able to help you.
in one hand i’m grasping old, sad, tired ways of being, seeing, doing, believing
while the other hand is carefully tending to the sweet little seedlings of new beginnings
I’m clinging to my health.. everyone around here is sick sick sick… I will not get it!
Barbie, submerged!:ROTFL:
Fleeting newborn yumminess!
I’m clinging to my babies, who are all growing up way too fast. I sure hope your specialist has some good ideas. I want you to feel better. Hugs, Lisa
I’m also clinging to my precious seed catalogs and all my wee starts in the kitchen. I’m also clinging to the notion that I’m happy to be sick because it means I’m alive and my body knows how to fight.;)
