Life has been crazy and I feel like I have not been blogging recently. I have so much I want to talk about. I did not realize how tired I was until Sunday. I came home from church and basically slept all Sunday afternoon. Then went to bed early Sunday night. As soon as I could I took a nap yesterday I did and had a hard time waking up. I think the last few wonderful glorious weeks have just caught up with me. We have had a ton of visitors for the day and over night. On top of the visitors I had a sinus infection and did not realize how bad it was until I emptied a bottle of ibuprofen.
Things are slowing down, school is almost over. My son is actually done with school. So I will have lots of time to blog. Wait, who am I kidding once school is done I have a ton more to do. Like get ready for school next year, I have lots of new recipes to try and I have already bought material to make a new quilt.
So tell me what has been going on in your life? Are you finding it easier to blog right now or not?

Military Monday
Good morning. I just have one question? What are your thoughts on Bin Laden being dead? I am relieved and feel a since of peace. But I have to be honest and say I am a little sad. Sad, that this man did not find the Lord before his death.
I have no new news on our military life this week. My husband should receive his sleep apnea machine this week. If your spouse has sleep apnea I would love for you to tell me how it affects his military life. They have not been given him many details yet.

I love you mommy
No mom talk has new rules; we can talk about our kids. So this week I had to think about what I would write.
I wonder if everyone remembers it is Mother’s Day in just six days. I do. We do not make a big deal about it around my house. But I thought I would share some pictures of my mom with you. She is mom to me and Oma to my kids. She is fun and always keeps up on our toes. She never seems to get tired. I am so proud (and a little jealous) of her. She recently decided to take care of herself. She has lowered her blood pressure and cholesterol and lost 40 pounds. It thrills me that she is taking care of herself.
I love you mommy!

Homemaker Monday
The weather in my neck of the woods: it looks like it is going to be a beautiful week.
Things that make me happy: my son holding a friends baby this week He is going to make a wonderful father one day. I love this boy.
Book I'm reading: Surrender by Nancy Lee Demoss
What's on my TV today: Army Wives, although honestly I should be in bed. I am exhausted
On the menu for dinner:
I have not really thought about it. I am thinking of rotisserie a chicken tomorrow night.
On my To Do List: make aprons with girls, cut coupons, run to walmart for a few things, get nails done
New Recipe I tried or want to try soon:
Smores muffins, I may make them in the morning
In the craft basket:
Aprons with butterflies on them, we are having a ladies tea this Saturday and are suppose to wear a apron and the theme is butterflies.
Looking forward to this week:
Being calm, we had a crazy busy week last week and I am ready to calm down. I am also looking forward to the ladies tea at church.
Tips and Tricks:
As mosquito’s come out, it is time to remember this trick. As soon as you realize you have been bit spray chloraseptic throat spray on it. It is amazing how quickly it stops itching.
My favorite blog post this week:
This week I did not have much time to write much. Hoping to have some time to set down this week and take all the notes I have stashed in my purse and turn them into blog post.
Blog Hopping (a new discovered blog you would like to share with the readers):
It is not a blog, but a Carnegie page of a soldier who was recently injured. It is breaking my heart and bringing me comfort with each update
No words needed (favorite photo or picture, yours or others you want to share):

Miscellany Monday
I have so much to say, I had a busy week last week and I loved every minute of it. Well except the sinus infection.
1. I had my first sinus infection. I knew I had one a month ago but the DR told me it was nothing. I was in pain for a month. When I realized I had taken a entire bottle of ibuprofen I knew it was time to go back to the DR.
2. I kept a friends nine year old last week. It was not bad but we did not get school done like we needed to. It made me realize I do not need to have friends over during our school year.
3. A friend invited me over last week, it was amazing and I hope to get to know them more. Our kids are the same ages and it sounds like our husbands have a ton in common.
4. I cooked for church this morning. Spaghetti and corn for 70. It was easier than I think. I even have enough leftovers for Wednesday night dinner at our church.
5. My boys spent the day helping a elderly couple clean up from the tornado. My son was touched that they had built their home and now it was gone. I do not think you understand the damage until you are in it.
6. My friend and 3 of her blessing were here over the weekend. I loved every minute of it even if I only saw them a couple of hours a night. Her blessings are growing up to be amazing young women and I love to hear them talk to one another.
7. My mom was here two weeks ago and it was amazing. I love spending time with her and love how my kids respond to her even more.
