Okay, every day at This Girl is random.So the big kid finally came home for Thanksgiving break last night. It was The Boy, The Man and three yacky, chatty girls. Apparently, my men could not get a word in edgewise. It sounds like it was a fun group, though. One girl, Linn, Shawn has known [...]

A Talk.Trey...the Older Boyfriend...is in the process of making Life Decisions. Deciding not to go back to the university he had been attending and swimming for. Deciding to join the military instead. A part of me understands it and realizes he is showing a ton of maturity. Another part of me wants to talk him [...]

Goodness Gracious! It's been an entire week since I posted. Four days since I updated Twitter. What have I been doing? Besides being sick in bed since Saturday afternoon. I'm up and about this morning, although I did sleep in til 8:15. I'm really shaky this morning. Kind of hyper. I ate lots of comfort [...]

So last week my memory verse was John 11:35. I know you know it."Jesus wept."Yep...last week was a tad busy so I needed an easy one. Can't get much easier.But guess what...whenever I thought on this verse, it had a profound impact on me. Jesus wept. Reinforcing the fact that He walked on this earth. [...]

Yes...I have a couple of boxes of Creative Memories stuff...who has time for that?I WANT time for that.My Winter project is going to be to start getting our photos in some sort [...]

:: A bit of rain this week. Always nice. Always needed around here.:: Volleyball is over. Never thought I'd be thankful for that. Enjoyed it; loved it; time to move on. It's all over but the parties.:: Freedom.:: Shawn. I've had to reassure him all week that even though he is a die-hard, ultra-conservative, Republican...he [...]

1. I am panicking. I totally lied about needing a break from the sports. Volleyball is the only connection My Girl and I have. What will we do? How will we communicate? Will we ever see each other again? Be still, my anxious and pounding heart.2. I just ate two ginormous cinnamon buns from Whole [...]
