Pssssst.....

Hey....
I think it might snow tonight....
It "tried to" earlier today...
My 10 year old son was "bored" a few hours ago...
he wanted to watch a movie...
I said not "that" movie.
He was not happy...went off sad.
I was not busy...
so I said "lets play a game"...
A real "old fashion game"....
like
 Battleship(non electronic)
or
Sorry
or
 Connect 4
We agree on Connect 4....
He is good and I am good at playing it...
so it was a nice challenge(for both of us).
He won one...I won one...
we tied all the rest.
Sometimes solutions to being "bored"...
can be so simple.
Take care,

Getting Things Done?

OK....
I read alot of decluttering and organizing blogs...alot!
I think the reason I read these is:
1) to keep motivated(I live in a huge 2 story house)
2) I really want to get rid of things that we don't need
and to keep things in their places.
What I don't care for is the "distressed look"...
I know people in "NEW" houses want this look.
Seems to me...on EVERYTHING....oh well.
Personally...
it "stresses me out"...ha,ha
And this is why...
my house is almost 100 years old and is already "stressed" enough.
It needs some TLC...
Our house has been "lived in"
and is a rework in progress.
BUT...
With that said...
I am very Thankful for a house to live in and a place to lay my head at night.
SO...
I guess I "work on" getting things done.
How about you?
Anything that you "put on your to do" list for the New Year?
Take care
and
 have a Marvelous Monday,
Mommy 2
P.S. I am still thinking on a "new" blog name.

Book Review...THE VOW

In my last post I talked about reading a "good book"...
I just finished one.
Its called
"The Vow"
by Kim & Krickett Carpenter
I had not heard of their story...
until my daughter was telling me about
the movie(soon to be in theaters)
I like to read...
I really like a story that is true.
So...
I got the book from the library...
I read it in a afternoon and evening.
Yep...could not put the book down.
Its happy, its sad...
its a miracle from God
that Krickett survived the car accident that her and her husband were in.
I looked them up....
there is a recent  video about them on U tube:
click here to see it.
Let me know if you have read the book
OR
if you have heard about the Carpenters.
Take care,
Mommy 2

Confession Time.....I am a Blog Reader

It is Confession Time...
The REAL reason that I don't get more blog post done is that...
I spend time reading other blogs...ALOT of time!
I just start reading...
and before I know it...
minutes...hours have passed by(maybe not all at once).
BUT...
the blogs are like "reading a good book"...
you just don't want to put it down.
As you can see to the right of this post,
that I follow a "few" blogs...
well maybe...quite a few!
Some are about people and what is going on in their lives,
others about saving money and where to find "good deals",
blogs about crafty and fun ideas.
I just "love" the blog world and all the knowledge you can receive...
my head gets soooo full sometimes that its hard to process it all.
I am thankful for the "blog friends" that I have made.
I would ♥ love♥ to hear from you.

So...
Tell me whats been going on with you.
Take care,
Mommy 2

Just a Note♪

Hey...
I want to let you know that
I have been going solo on this blog...
Mommy1
has flown the coop...
she actually has 3 other blogs/websites that she is doing:
http://lawana-counterculture.blogspot.com/
and
http://baptistmama.wordpress.com/
and
http://www.meadowmagic.net/

I am sad that she is not doing posts here...
(actually she leaves a comment now and then
and
 I will see if she will "guest" post now and then too)
BUT
I am glad she is writing...
so visit her sites...and leave a comment or 2.
(We did NOT have a falling out...)
just have different ideas that we wanted to blog about...so she expanded.
Afterall we may someday share grandchildren....
thats how this blog got started in the first place....
(thus the name)
My daughter was getting married to her son
(they have been married 16 months now)
So...
with all that said...
the blog will continue...
its looks like it might need a new name...
thinking on that...
too.
Take care,
Mommy 2
P.S.
I am taking suggestions for a new name...
my children have given me a few to "chew on"
