Looking For Direction

October 16, 2009

What would you do if you knew you would not fail?   Recently I heard this quote and it has taken root in my brain. I have thought a lot about roads in my life that I turned off of, afraid that I would never see the end of the street. If I knew I [...]

Organization Works For Me

September 1, 2009

This week’s ‘Works For Me Wednesday’ is a themed edition. Participants are asked to share an Organization tip. I am the most organized person I know.

A Walk Down Random Road

August 30, 2009

I typically do a Not Me! Monday post on Mondays, but I don’t think MckMama is doing a ‘Not Me! Monday’ post this week, so I thought I’d just do my own thing today because its always fun to shake things up a bit. It is too late in the evening to worry with complete [...]

Reconstitution

August 4, 2009

When McDaddy joined the Air National Guard in 1991, he had the difficult task of learning another language. A language that is made up mostly of initials and acronyms.

Doing The Math

July 31, 2009

It’s been exactly 180 days since McDaddy left for the incredibly long 6-month deployment. Remember the M&M bowls? The bowls that Stevie and Alex made for themeselves and McDaddy that were filled with 182 M&Ms. One M&M for every day that they would be apart? So much has happened since that day. Y’all know that numbers are [...]
