Sep-Timber!


So, here I am blogging again. Yes, I know, it's a miracle. It's a gloomy, extremely rainy day; so what else am I going to do?

What is going on with us? Thanks for asking! Goodness, I cannot believe how busy we are. My dear hubby is in the final stretch of his masters of accounting. He graduates in December. I am so very proud of my nerdy man! He does not clean throw up, but man can he do calculus! Anyway, he also took the first part of the CPA exam the end of August and we are still waiting on the results. tap, tap, tap. He is also looking persistently for a job with a CPA that will help him to get licensing. Quite the process for a bunch of number crunchers! We are praying for a whopper of a job that will enable us to eradicate debt and catch up on life.

I am still babysitting. "My" baby is now 3 months old and at the huge toothless smile stage. cutie. I watch her 5 days a week. I'm getting a taste of having 4 children and I have to say I'm quite thankful I stopped at 3. Love babies! Somebody else's babies! I have not done much sewing lately. Juggling the baby and my house has taken center stage. I am working on a quilt for my oldest daughter. It's a funky mix of Sunbonnet Sue and horses. I see your mind racing already. I wanted to put her loves in there! Another project I'm working on is, drum roll please, a compilation of stories from my years in Bolivia. Life was other worldly there and I want to share that. I also want my kids to have something of me from an adventurous time in my life. I also teach a Sunday School class at church. We are studying the Parables right now. I love to throw myself into it and find angles that are not normally explored in these overdone stories.

The girls are on their summer vacation right now. We are taking this month off from school. They quite happy about that. You would think they were teenagers already as much as they sleep! That shall come to a grinding halt in October. Rude awakening will take on new meaning!

Let me say I appreciate anyone who is kind enough to wade through my blog! So, feel appreciated today!
