Bedtime

Tonight Callie decided to sleep in her bed. I made her a night light from an glass block and she has sitting on the shelf above her bed. She looks so angelic while she sleeps!

Katie insists on complete darkness while she sleeps. She often complains about Dakota having the bathroom light on. Katie is also my early riser, getting up with the dawn.

Dakota can't sleep in total darkness and always has the radio playing at night. In many ways he is more like me than the girls.

One thing is certain, I truly and deeply love my children and their father!

Starting a journey into journalling

Somehow I always have great intentions in starting to keep a journal or blog, only to drop off int oblivion.

Hopefully this endeavor will outlast my previous attempts by being able to use my computer and iPhone for updating.

Today was one of those days that all I wanted to do was sleep or vegetate on the couch. On the other hand, the gifts purchased online have started arriving and I am feeling more festive everyday.

Thanksgiving was wonderful with only small amounts of stress. The turkey was juicy and tasty. Plenty of stuffing, corn pudding, casseroles and cherry fluff. We even made apple pie for dessert.

We started the lean-to along the south side of the barn. The framing is complete for the roof, next we'll put the sheet metal on. Eventually we'll put a wall along half the south side and make the west half into dry hay and cart storage.

Stolen van?!?!?!

According to Tim if you "borrow" a vehicle, use said vehicle, then abandon said vehicle at a public place when the vehicle no longer runs, it is not stolen. Not stolen because "you told the owner where it is", therefor you are no longer obliged to return said vehicle! I feel that if you borrow an item, no matter what the value, you are responsible for its return.
