One of my favorite quotes is, “What you take for granted, someone else is praying for.” I was talking to my mom other day and we weren’t talking about this quote specifically, but the same principle. We were talking about a book that I got us both when we were having a rough time at the beginning of the year. … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
The change in seasons aren’t too good to me and I get sick with something this time of year, every year. Last week I had an infection and I really couldn’t take it anymore, so I went to the doctor for antibiotics. This is when you know I’m desperate, because I have been allergic to every antibiotic I’ve taken in … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”

Dehydrated and sick on Saturday, then catching little mice … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
Fabric: Gray Jersey Knit from The Loft (Micheal Lavine’s Upstairs) Pattern: similar and similar Last first day of school… until we’re both officially graduated at least! Then I get to take classes for “fun”. Who does that? With Dallas having staff benefits, it would be dumb of me not to take classes for really cheap.

Last week he was helping a lot with orientation set ups and worked some really long days. One day he came home after I had gone to bed, and left before I had to wake up.

Since I’m so tall, there was no way I was going to find fabric wide enough for me to cut the whole circle at once (you shorter people – be grateful).
