and dirty dishes
Earlier this year, Don and I decided we would be better parents and happier people if we were no longer married. Don’t get me wrong – I will always love him for the two beautiful children we have and the memories we share. However, I was unhappy and I believe he was to. Our unhappiness with each other and our situation was spilling over into our family and how we interacted with each other and the twins. We decided to get an amicable divorce. But, is there really such a thing?
Today, October 11, 2018, my daddy has been in heaven 14 years. Fourteen years without his love and support when I needed it most. Fourteen years without hearing, “Who loves ya baby cakes?” when he would see me. Fourteen years without my daddy. I was flipping through old posts trying to find a favorite about my dad. I stumbled across this one and it is one of my favorite memories of my dad. My dad loved and supported me through every decision I ever made. I know he would be proud of what I have done and what I have become. Right before I went to the starting line at bracket finals, he leaned into the car and yelled, “Kick some ass!” Ever since then, I have tried to live my life that same way. I try to kick ass every day. I miss you more than anything, daddy!
This time of year always brings the taste and smell of peaches to mind. You drive past road side stands and farmer’s markets with big signs proclaiming, “Fresh Peaches!” When searching for a theme this week for my free printable planner stickers, I came across these Peachy Keen graphics and it made me smile. So, I thought they’d be perfect! These adorable stickers are available in both ECV and HP versions. Grab yourself some peach tea and maybe a piece of peach pie and get planning.
Halloween versus fall festivals – a hot topic this time of year. Let me start this post by saying… I am a Christian and I believe in God. I was brought up in a Baptist church and was raised “right” as my parents would say. This post is about my opinion on the whole Halloween versus Fall Festival thing… and why it irks me to no end. I don’t want anyone to take offense… and I am absolutely up for any civil and non-inflammatory debate concerning this…
Yesterday was my 40th birthday. I have been dreading this day for about a month. I was going to be 40. What have I accomplished? I have two amazing children, a Master’s degree, a great job, and a handful of great friends. But, what about that bucket list I made when I turned 30? I had several items left to do… ride in a hot air balloon, visit Las Vegas, get a tattoo…

This week’s free printable planner stickers make me happy. I don’t know if it is the colors, the designs or the fact that it reminds me of lemonade on a hot, summer day. But, they bring a smile to my face and I hope they make you happy too. Grab a glass of lemonade and get to planning.
