Sick and tired of being sick and tired


We’ve been sick, sick, sick with the flu; achy, hurting, fever and some (gross) vomiting. It started with me 3 weeks ago, then Chels got it, Ace was next, then Miss Busy was down for about 5 days, just this morning went back to school. Yesterday, Robby and Boo caught it; at the same time, thank you very much! They just have fever, and aches. Well, Boo nearly threw up all over my keyboard yesterday, I was able to scoot back out of the way and he only got my lap and his sister’s homework. (Terrific!)

Please pray!! I’m so sick of this, literally! This morning, I’m sneezing, and have a runny nose. This is how my allergies start so I think that’s what I have. With Daddy gone, I’m the only caregiver, and I get pretty worn out when everyone is calling Mommy!

Thanks, I knew I could count on you!

You have my deepest sympathies and most heartfelt prayers!! It's hard enough when just one child is sick but pile on top of that your own sickness and that of other children and it feels like you'll never come out the other side! Thank you for your prayers. I am already starting to feel better - helped by being surprised at church by Dave tonight. Feel better soon...all of you!!!

Oh, my! Are we passing this thing back and forth across the internet? This just needs to stop. You spray your side with Lysol, and I'll spray my side. :)
Praying for you and your family!
Love,
Kimberly

Sprouted Whole Wheat Bread

  Whole Wheat Bread-THM Style 2 loaves I have been in the kitchen since I was able to stand on a chair next to my mother. She was my 4-H leader from age 9, and I learned all of my kitchen skills from her.   She was an excellent baker, canning aficionado and superb chef.   Both of my parents felt, as I do, that homemade is best—homegrown even better. We raised chickens, turkeys, beef cattle, rabbits and a large garden of produce to feed my brothers and sisters.   We all had certain tasks during one of our “putting up” sessions.   Mother was always telling me to be refined, and stop acting like the boys. LOL I had four brothers and two sisters, I think the masculine influence always outnumbered the feminine. We were a large family and we would buy large quantities of whole grains to turn into flour with the grain mill in the basement.   It stood on three legs with a heavy bag underneath to catch the warm flour as it came through

4-H Modeling and the Wardrobe Malfunction

Sincerely 'fro me to you and Vintage Thingies Thursday ! Kristen over at We are THAT family has a blogging carnival going on Thursdays, and she asked for bloggers to share a story from our past, something that won't probably make it into a scrapbook because we can't find our crinkle-cut scizzors or some mouse peed on the pictures or whatever reason. Apron Queen also has a carnival goin on called Vintage Thingies Thursday, I thought since I am so good at multi-tasking, I'd roll two posts into one and call this story both; an embarrassing story from my past as well as vintage. Now if you think that those bangs aren't vintage, and that, "Oh My! Would you look at that zipper!" I don't know what is! So, this is my story... Fall 1978, it was the beginning of my modeling “career.” It all began at the Western Idaho Fair, on the exhibitor’s building main stage, or rather behind the main stage. There I was waiting for an absolutely dreamy Junior Future Farmers

We have orders

We picked up Bear's orders yesterday at the Chaplain's School. We took a very slow walk about 1/4 mile to the school, and found them with one of the school secretaries. We started the process of getting Bear's flight home on the 15th. Then we came back to the room and called the airline which I was to fly with. I did miss my flight, (it was on Monday) but they allowed us to leave the ticket open and reschedule once we get Bear's flight information from the army. Thank you, Lord!! Bear and I were praying hard while we were on the phone talking with Expedia and then the airline. I thought there was no way to recoup any of that lost ticket, shows you what the power of prayer can do. He is doing an Army correspondence training right now at the Chaplain's School library, another couple of Chaplains were doing it, and needed another brain thrown into the mix to figure out some of the questions. He is feeling better, can move around more easily, but is still moving slowly
