My morning so far - Everything & everyone on schedule for getting Lucy to preschool on time. Then i remember a flyer sent home that said something about Mexico Week. I find it & read that on Monday the students should dress as if going on a trip to Mexico and pack a bag/suitcase with what they need. I start digging in closets, looking for warm weather clothes & then cold weather clothes that can go on top of them. Then I help Lucy think about what to pack. Despite the fact we are now run...

I love sunshine! Even with the bad start to the morning & a headache, I managed to do a good move-all-the-furniture-around-and-polish cleaning of the living room floor. Now to the girls down for naps and get a load of dishes going. Then crash/knit. (And think about whether to get back up to make dinner or not )

So I'm pretty sure that the bad weather predicted for this weekend will result in no school on Monday. Not because of the reports I've read/seen or my trust in the weather persons, but because it is Lucy's snack day at preschool & the last 3 times she had snack (including the one for her bday) school was canceled.

So, how bad will this snow storm be?

So . . . Been feeling overwhelmed too often for too long. I'm remembering my pregnancies & how with each one I really felt I needed to slow down more but didn't because I knew so many people who worked full time during theirs & cleaned & cooked, etc. so I ignored my gut and told myself everyone gets tired & stressed, be a grown up & deal with it. And both times it turns out I really should have listened to my gut & slowed down. So, I've decided today to not discount my gut. I am re-eval...

Ok - for Columbus it looks like Titan was the storm that wasn't. That second round they predicted must have gone to the south of us.

Actually got Lucy to preschool on time. We were the 3rd family there. I remembered snack, Mexico Week, and permission forms. I am unreasonably pleased with myself over this

Hmmmm knitting or reading?

Fat Tuesday, Shrove Tuesday, Mardi Gras. Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday & the start of Lent. The year is flying by, and my 2 girls keeping getting bigger!

Is glad to be home, in PJ's, on the couch.

Hmmm, I know I have some FB friends who are knowledgable in this area: what do any of you know about Ed and Lorraine Warren?

Anyone know of a good bakery in the Whitehall/Bexley/Reynoldsburg area? I need to pick up a pie on Friday.

Hmmmmm out of all the things on my huge to do list what should I actually attempt to do today?

Rain & still recovering from this weekend = one sleepy lady. At least ( fingers crossed) Nancy seems to be sleeping thru the night again.

You know you're old when: A close friend becomes an "elder" at your church (sort of like a deacon) AndYou have college classmates that are "Senior" Pastors.Yep. I'm no longer a youngster

Is insanely proud of herself for sewing up/fixing (Barbie) Rapunzel's dress for Lucy

So our bird, Wash, has gone on to become a leaf in the wind

Long day, but fun. Ate lots of pie. Going to sleep very very soon.

Bow Ties are cool. Knitting is cool. Therefore I am doubly cool this evening

So Cheerios has free comics in some of there boxes. I just read one to Lucy before her "quiet time." Now I hear "Curse you, Justice League!" Echoing from her bedroom

Tomorrow's plans: care for children and vacuum floors in the morning. Take girls out for ice cream & park time in the afternoon (with a stop at the post office).

I believe that Martin Luther King Jr said something about how hate cannot defeat hate - only love can do that. I hope that Mr Phelps learns a great deal about love in his afterlife, and that his family and followers are comforted in their mourning & learn to appreciate the Godliness of love in this life.

Children fed, floors cleaned, oldest daughter & self dressed. Not a bad morning. Now if only I could figure out what to do to get the floor to look as nice as it did when we moved in. Anyone know anything about polish/oil/wax for wood floors?

Anyone know if there's a place in the SE suburbs (Reynoldsburg, pickerington, Gahanna, Whitehall) the carries Brothers' Drake mead?

Wonders if knitting while a 1.5 year old crawls all over you is anything like knitting with a cat in the room.
