Feature Blogs

I'm going to feature some blogs because things are hectic at home with school starting and my job being so dang busy and I'm behind.

At home I am behind because my cleaning and mowing fairy quit. I can't find it. If you see it at your house...send it back. Also the fairy hid my cleaning supplies, which is why I have been forced to go home every night and read instead of clean. I'm being nice, don't make me type in all caps and watch out for those exclamation points, because when they are used in 3's, I mean business.

Lets see....who should go first?

How about one of the first blogs I read and was hooked from the start. Nate and Trisha at Confessions of a CF Husband have truly beautiful story. I don't even know how to put this into words. This blog is powerful and moving. It follows a beautiful love story between Nate and Trisha during a pregnancy and fighting Cystic Fibrosis.

  • In May of 2007, after a few unsuccessful years of trying to become pregnant, Tricia’s disease had progressed to the point to where her doctors strongly advised that we stop our efforts to conceive and consider undergoing the evaluation process for the double lung transplant that could save Tricia’s life. Trusting in our doctors’ abilities and in God’s control, and coming to terms with the fact that we would never be able to have our own children after that point, we took their advice.

I've already mentioned that I love Vintage 30 . She says exactly what we all wish we had the guts to say. She writes about everything from Caress Body Soap to the "Drop Off Parents" at school.....

  • Dear Fellow Parents of the Morning Drop-off,Good morning. How are you today? I know how you are. You are rushed. I understand how inconvenient it is to pull all the way forward through the car line to keep things moving in an orderly fashion. This organized procedure interferes with your need to make an illegal u-turn in the middle of the road. You are obviously kind of a big deal because following procedure would mean that you might have to wait for the crossing guard to get the children safely across the street, making the army of cars...gasp!...wait. And very important people like you do not have time to wait for things like children. I know that once your own children are safely inside the school the rest of us can go to hell. I also understand how embarrassing it is when the execution of your u-turn fails, resulting in a shameful 3 point turn. It's so frustrating using up those additional 6 seconds. So the tire screeching was completely warranted. That lady who honked at you doesn't know what she's talking about.

Thats it for now folks....I know this is the laziest post ever....

Sorry.
