Eclectic






For my sister with special needs:  the coolest educational app ever.

Don't you think that this spells Hidden Magic for kids?  Sprout would love this.

I'm so proud that I took the kids alone for a hike.  There are plenty of trails around to share.

This makes me want to go Back to Stockholm, but in fact this couple is out of Texas.

I'm sure if I did more of these projects I'd feel less like throttling the kids at the end of the day.

I want to hug this mom.

Maybe, if we're insanely lucky, our service dog will also learn tricks to help ME!

Stumbled across anything lately?

Thanks to Design Mom for letting me stalk you on Stumble.  I'd forgotten about some of these links until I stumbled across them again!

    Huh! That was eclectic. But very clever. You had me going all over the bloody place ...
    Quite fulfilling.

    OK, I want to be 5 again, just to have that playroom-through-the-armoire! Or am I allowed to have one now? Yes, yes . . . wheels are turning . . . Thanks for giving my imagination some good exercise today -- I needed it!

    I like it! But I have a bummy phone. We'll put it on husband's cell instead.

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

I Found True Happiness

It feels like I've become a detached voice, writing but not feeling on this blog.  I'm living a lot of things that don't fit neatly into my bloggable ownership file. Even now, I've spent an hour with this tab open to write a new post and I've done absolutely everything else possible.  For once I can't put a finger on what I'm feeling.  I don't fit into any definable box. On one hand, I'm spending an hour in therapy with Chickadee and another hour round trip three times a week. Mr. Survival is fighting off unemployment blues. We cannot shake things up and have me go to work. I'm not going to go to FitBloggin'11 . But, on the other hand, Chickadee is STANDING in the stander for minutes instead of seconds! Chickadee is grasping things momentarily for the first time in eighteen months. I'm so in love with Mr. Survival it's unbelievable. We are tighter as a family than we ever have been. I'm stressed and frustrated.  I...

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...
