defining the circles that make me whole
No cape herePosted by Alli on December 16, 2010
A few days ago I sat down, made a list, and started to do things on the list. On Tuesday I came home from running a bunch of errands feeling a little high, like I was superwoman or something. I was getting Things done. And I have been getting more Things done and going and [...]
DPP :: ParadePosted by Alli on December 2, 2010
Tonight our family went to the parade. Damon and Fuller were in the parade as part of Fuller’s football team. Tebow and I waited on the sidelines, at the end of the parade route. I tried to take pictures but the vantage point wasn’t awesome and Tebow wasn’t too happy. I’m not sure what it [...]
Fresh startsPosted by Alli on November 9, 2010
In life we stumble through so many “fresh starts.” January 1st is a pretty popular one. It is a time of year for reflection on the past and planning the steps to make the next year even better. We make lists, set goals, plot paths to make sure the next 365 days are filled with [...]
The silence is beginning to be uncomfortablePosted by Alli on June 4, 2010
Back in January, I suddenly had other people observing me in real life. It went from just me and the boys at home all day to co-habitating with the in-laws to opening up our home to handymen who were there for the purpose of getting our home in “for sale” mode. And with this real [...]
Stomach knotPosted by Alli on January 27, 2010
Yesterday I turned my laptop over to a man who lives down the street from my in-laws’ city house (that’s what Fuller calls it). He promised to help me, he has the technology. He will make my laptop better than before. It will run better, stronger, faster. Well, at least it will be virus free. [...]
Remodeling without the dustPosted by Alli on January 5, 2010
Today I was given an excellent gift! Babyrocsmama (a friend from MomDot) pointed us to a site for free and cheap wordpress themes and I fell in love with the blog theme you should currently be seeing. Hey! Are you reading this post in a feed reader? Move it over to my actual blog to [...]
This is post 667Posted by Alli on November 17, 2009
I looked at my wordpress dashboard and it said I had 666 posts. So, I had to make one more to change the number. I’m still sick, but I can tell the medicine the physician’s assistant prescribed has helped. Let’s all say a little word of thanks for codeine. I got some good sleep. I [...]
Being true to myself :: I’m a bloggerPosted by Alli on November 5, 2009
So, I decided to try and think about the things I know about myself in an effort to answer “Who am I?” question. And one of the areas of my life- one of the true things about me- is my online life. The blogging, the twittering, the facebooking, and the DIGITAL MOM part of my [...]
Top Ten Tuesday :: GimmePosted by Alli on November 3, 2009
Okay, since my birthday is next Monday (I promise to remind you every day), I am going with such an original top ten list (sarcasm implied): What I want for my birthday. (BTW: if I link to something on Amazon, it has an affiliate link.) Some of these are serious. Some are outlandish. Some are [...]
Works for Me Wednesday :: Hot WaterPosted by Alli on October 21, 2009
So today the fridge got repaired and started humming and cooling, waiting for us to fill it up with perishables. BUT! Before I could move the food from the dorm fridge to the big fridge, I had to clean it up. It was gross. There was dried on yuck under the veggie drawers. There were [...]
