Through The Tulips

I have to admit that what I really want to be doing right now is sleeping, but I figured that since I was on the computer, I may as well actually log in and say a few words. Marcel is sleeping after working last night, and while I am considering going back to bed for [...]

This morning my mother in law called and asked us if we would help her check into life insurance rates. We told her that we’d be happy to, and since the weekend has rolled around, Marcel has added it to his ‘to do’ list come first thing Monday morning. Well, first we have an appointment [...]

I’ve been so busy this week with work, that I haven’t had a chance to report that my 20 pounds of steel-cut oats arrived yesterday! I resisted tempation of making a bowl yesterday, and had my first bowl this morning. It was pure elation. They arrived just in time, because I’d actually bought a package [...]

After playing phone tag with my best friend all week, we finally had a chance to catch up a little earlier this afternoon. She’s the office manager of a major doctor group and has been in meetings and setting up new products all week long. She said that the exam table that she’d been waiting [...]

I don’t know what is wrong with me, but lately I have not been motivated at all to work out. Granted, I do little things like running up the stairs, and taking the stairs when I have the option between that and the elevator, but the bottom line is, that I know I’m not ever [...]

You may laugh, but I have found myself singing Christmas carols the past few days. Don’t worry, it hasn’t been all day, but I think the cooler air has me feeling festive and thinking about the upcoming holiday season. I’ve already started making my Christmas list (which I’ll check twice later for good boys and [...]

I woke up this morning feeling like I needed a heated blanket. I left the window open last night and the nights are getting colder, so this morning found it a little chilly. I love it. Fall is on it’s way. I’ve sat outside most of this week with Marcel’s laptop and worked, because I [...]

I’m so excited. Mom called me last night to let me know that diddy would be shipping me a flat rate box filled with steel-cut oats today. If all goes well with the shipping, I should have those precious little oats in my hand sometime next week, which means that I can quit eating yogurt [...]

I want a new look for this place. I wonder if I could find some time in between everything else to actually create a layout that I’d love? Probably not, but it is a thought. hehe Since I’m being random with my thoughts, I’ll let yáll know that I made a huge pot of chicken [...]

In the last week, I’ve noticed the scales slowly moving downward to the point that I’m getting close to losing 2 pounds.  Granted, that’s a great thing, and I’m certainly not complaining, but I really don’t know what I’ve been doing differently to make the scales start moving downward.  I haven’t been doing much in [...]
