Praying Expecting for Beverly

-
Some of you may have seen the link in my side bar to my cousin's CaringBridge Page.   Beverly's been on my mind all day.  Make that all week.  A few years ago, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and it has really spread the last month or so.  She had surgery to remove her gallbladder recently, but she still had jaundice afterwards (evidence that her liver isn't as it should be).  She's married to my dad's cousin and they have eight children who she's homeschooled in the past.  The two oldest are in college now, and the next three oldest are going to their church's private school this year.  Please keep praying for Beverly that she will not get sick during the day, and that she will be able to sleep well at night.  Her migraines are very painful most days.  Pray for her husband as he's taking care of her.  Pray for her children as they start at a new school for the first time.  I made a button, but I haven't formatted it yet.  (I've got a little editing I want to do, including adding a verse reference to the bottom - Psalm 40:1, and her name as well.  I want to clean up the edges some too.)  When I do format it with a link (to her CaringBridge page), I'll put it on my sidebar with the html so you can add it on your sidebar if you like!

Thanks so much again everyone!



I'll probably do some blogging tomorrow after another day of check-ins because I got an award today that I need to officially accept! Goodnight!

My Cleaning Schedule

1/8/2024 Update! I wrote this post 12 years ago!! Every spring and every January, my blog (that I don't update nearly often enough!) gets a lot of attention on this post about a simple cleaning plan! That makes a lot of sense though, right? That said, I noticed while doing laundry this week that it's time to buy some fresh microfiber towels for us to use for wiping down surfaces. While I'm shopping, I'm going to make a list here of some of our go-to cleaning supplies that you can find online. Microfiber Cleaning Cloths  - I use these for just about everything. I've had more and less expensive ones over the years, but I find as long as I wash them separate from any lint towels, they hold up well for a few years. Glass Spray Bottles  - I have one (and need more!). I like to dilute a little castile soap or dish soap in one for the boys to help clean surfaces. Currently, I have homemade pine cleaner in mine. I put a bunch of fresh pine straw in a jar, filled it with vin...

What's going on in Summer 2024?

When school is out for all our friends, we're always looking for something fun to do together at one of our houses or around town. I've been putting together a list of fun events in our area (Jefferson/Blount/Walker/Cullman counties) so we will never be bored! There's no way we can be at all of these, but I'm keeping them on my radar. If you know of something else that I've missed, leave it in the comments. I'll be updating this post as I find out more information on events and adding registration links as they are available, so make sure to check back often! At the bottom of this post, you'll find a calendar you can download and print for the months of June and July! :)

Meal Plan for this Week

-

 I'm going to try to start posting my meal plans each week....mostly so I can refer back to them later! If you want to see all my previous meal plans (some are monthly, some are weekly), you can see them here . Future ones will be tagged too if you want to bookmark that link. I always make sure to include some meals designated for leftovers to hopefully reduce the chance of forgetting about food in the back of the fridge. Breakfasts tend to switch between cereal & oatmeal or granola, with the occasional muffins or cinnamon rolls thrown in. As everyone is waking up, they can fix their breakfast with some coffee or hot cocoa, and pick out a book or quiet activity like coloring to do while eating while we wait for the day to get started.
