I had to act like an orangutan in one of the games
Today we threw a birthday party for Leafy. He turned four with a flourish and a crown and a birthday hat combined.
I baked a cake in my stovetop oven. I owe you a photo of my oven, which someone referred to today as the space missile. The cake turned out perfectly, which totally surprised me.
The day after tomorrow I leave for a week to a) finish my book and b) rest. I don’t know if I’ll make it through a week. I’m already doubting myself, going, but I know I really need it.
I’m ignoring the rest of the housework tonight after a day of baking and games and snacks and a wee bit of babysitting. Ignoring ignoring, tra la la…
going to
bed!

Sounds like a fun party – wish I could have been there. A week away – hope you enjoy that.
What fun.
God I love it when one reaches THAT point where ignoring it’s allowed. I believe (from my VERY humble point of view) you deserve a week of break.
A week! That sounds like heaven. I was just mumbling to my kids just now that we need a week without our 2 year old, to catch up with ourselves and let our nerves loosen. Enjoy it, I’m sure you will have a lot of inspiration once you are ALONE.

We’d love lots of photos by the way!!! Especially the stove and the birthday party!
WOW! I stumbled in here, and I think the universe made your blog a gift just for me. Just today I was thinking, I don’t SEE anyone interesting, I don’t KNOW anyone like me, I wish I had some people that would inspire and lift me up…but you are. Love it! Happy Birthday, Leafy!

It’s gonna be a wonderful week…God has little treasures that he’s waiting for you to find this week…I’m sure of it.
Rae, I had a hard drive crash several months ago, and I had to rebuild all my RSS feeds. I haven’t read you since September. And yet, I knew I was missing something.
I stumbled upon a reminder yesterday, and I’m working on catching up on reading about you. I’m grateful for your journey.
