The first person who guesses correctly what is going on in this picture, wins something... okay, not really, but come on. Guess!

Stressed

Alright, so I've gone off my New Years goal already. That doesn't mean I can't go back on. Life got a bit crazy and hectic the past few weeks. We aren't moved yet, not that we don't want to move, but houses aren't that easy to come by.

Trevor has been gone a lot and working long hours. He won't admit it to anyone, but I sure have been having to deal with it. This is the most calm day we've had in a really looooong time, and it's because Trevor has been laying in bed all day, sick. *sigh*

Also, I'll tell you a secret: I'm almost done with the couch! Wait, I'll go find a picture.

The couch is obviously not done yet.  I threw the old cushions on to give you an idea of what it used to look like.

I. Want. A. Trampoline!

Like RIGHT NOW!!! Days like today, you know, super nice weather, make me want to throw myself down on the ground like a small child and kick my feet and scream. I WANT A TRAMPOLINE!!!!!! Know anyone selling a used one? Call me!

The couch

I'm finally diving into the couch project. I started tearing it apart yesterday. I was feeling slightly jumpy about it because just last week I made the terrible mistake of reading this article:

Sick.

Thankfully, I haven't found anything like this yet. I'm a lucky girl.

This couch is way more intricately put together than anything I've tackled before. I'm scared. Wish me luck. I'll put up pictures soon.

We Miss You, Grandma Kay!

This post might be considered by some to be irreverent, but I think it was perfectly harmless and want to record it.

Sometimes I have random songs just pop into my head that I remember from my childhood. Yesterday was one of those days. You remember Michael Jackson singing Heal The World? If you don't remember it, then watch this quick video:

So I'm singing it "there are people dying......"

Phoebe and Samantha were concerned. "Why are people dying?"

"Because they don't have enough food. We're lucky we have so much food. Not everyone gets to eat all the yummy things we do."

Then Phoebe said very seriously "That's why Grandma Kay died. She didn't have enough food."

I tried to hide my laugh.

"Maybe." I said

"We should have shared our food with Grandma Kay" she said

Then she said the sweetest thing "I miss Grandma Kay."

Me too, Phoebe.

Me too.
