I originally saw this challenge posted at Raising Olives, but the event is being hosted by Mom’s Toolbox. I am taking part in the 90-Day Challenge that started on January 1st. Using the reading schedule put together by Biblein90Days.org, I will be able to read through the whole Bible in only 90 days. It’s quite the undertaking, but I think it will be worth the extra effort required. I was pleased when Munchkin decided that she wanted to join me in this challenge. Munchkin was actually so excited about the challenge that she started a few days early. She said…

100+ Reading Challenge & What’s In a Name Reading Challenge
Posted in Announcements, and Commercial Break
I saw this book challenge over at Heidi’s blog and thought it would be fun to join in myself. I enjoy reading and thought it would be fun to have a record of what I have read this year.

Thankfully, my order from cookware.com came quickly and without any issues. (Unfortunately, it…
Musings of a Housewife is having a 2009 blog recap carnival. It’s a fun way to look back at what was going on with your blog on the first day (or first post) of the month in 2009. You just put down the first sentence of the post. I chose to skip review and announcement posts if those were the first posts up for the month. I also added a picture from the post. If that post didn’t have a picture, then I took one from another post from the month. January Did we stay up to ring in the…

Yes, right now, I should be cleaning. In fact, I should have been cleaning all day. We have company coming next week, and the house in not company ready. Yet, here I sit… not cleaning. D had off from work today. When he woke up, he decided that he wanted to go look at dirt bikes for himself and Munchkin. (Note: I do not plan on riding a dirt bike with them. I’ve learned to never say never – thus the “I do not plan”…) Normally, this really isn’t a big deal, but the shop was over 2 hours away…
