All Star Weekend

Posted in Thoughts

It’s All-Star Weekend. For any of you that have basketball fans in the house, you know that means a Saturday evening filled with all things basketball — from shoot-outs, to slam dunk contests, to skills contests. Then, Sunday, you will be watching the All-Star Game. Guess we’ll be having some sort of finger foods tomorrow during the game. Hopefully, munchkin will be feeling better by tomorrow. She stayed in bed most of the day today. D, thankfully, was feeling better this morning. Now, I just need to stay healthy.

Long Weekend

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

D was home yesterday as they have a long weekend due to President’s Day. I always love it when he’s home more as does munchkin. It’s more fun when Daddy is home. Well… at least that’s what she says until he tells her to go clean her room. Yesterday, we took down the loft bed as I need to repaint her room before we move out. I can’t take down the bed by myself, so it fell on D to take care of it this weekend. Slowly, we’re removing things from the walls, and I’m filling in the holes left…

Frugal Friday

Posted in Thrifty Ideas

Crystal from Biblical Womanhood will not be hosting Frugal Friday this week due to a death in the family. She has written a beautiful memorial to her grandparents at her blog. Please join me in praying for her and her family during this time of grieving. Crystal, we’re truly sorry for your loss.

Our Valentine’s Gift

Posted in Family, and Holidays

We decided that we wanted to get each other a gift this year. Both of us have some issues with our backs, so D thought we should get a shiatsu and rolling massage cushion for our chair. I thought it sounded like a really good idea. Unfortunately, it didn’t arrive in time for Valentine’s Day, but it did arrive today. D is sitting and relaxing right now. He was a gentleman and let me enjoy my massage first. Here is a picture of our gift to each other.
