First post

So, I've been thinking about starting a blog for forever, and things I would put on it. So today, I'm doing it!

I called it how to eat a banana, because Rilla asked to watch, "Elmo's World (lalalala) Ba-nanas!" this morning. It seemed fitting.

Margaret is down for a morning nap after getting up at 6:30 this morning. Thank you Congress for daylight savings time. I really appreciate waking up an hour earlier.

And, I've discovered the joy of washing dishes by hand as soon as you use them because our 2y old dishwasher has a broken part. Whoo-hoo! Since I broke down and just washed the sinkfull and dishwasher-full by hand, my kitchen has been remotely clean now. Other new clean areas...the garage is halfway there! David spent some time getting it organzied. Half of it is awesome! And I have a newspaper recycling box and a glossy paper box. No more piles!

I am so grateful for the cooler temps that look like they're going to stick around now. Thanks God! Our adventure for the day is to get the double jogging stroller into my car and go walk at the river. I don't have to go to work til late this afternoon because my babysitter is out of town. I'm so excited about my extra 4 hours at home.

That's it for now. Just a small public journal entry.

Thanks!
Marlo

  1. I am new at this blogging thing! Everyday I learn something which is important to keep that mind thing going. I have always said "Retire???" what's that's?
    Maybe slow down a little to play with the grandbabies...what a dream blessing that would be...
    I too, am trying to re-organize my closet so I can have a craft corner in it! It is amazing how much stuff we accumulate during our lifetime....
    My goal is not to leave a bunch of "stuff" behind when I go Yonder...i dont want my children to have to go through stuff. Yuk....
