These are the totally random thoughts of a family gal. You will read about me, my family, mom stuff, woman stuff, book stuff. My friends say I have no filter, so if something strikes me as interesting, you'll know about it.

What I know... (Because we all know SOMETHING!)
What I know is:
1. Not much. Lol!
2. That being a mom is the toughest, funnest, most rewarding, irritating, exciting, IMPORTANT thing I have ever done.
3. That books are a great escape. I use them entirely too often to escape.
4. That laundry SUCKS!
5. That sometimes being a good listener is all it takes to be a good friend.
6. That Jesus loves me! No matter how much I screw up.
7. That I am good enough! I may not be everyone's cup of tea, but God chose me to be me and that's enough.
8. That kids really do grow up way too fast.
9. That no matter how often I wash sheets, as soon as I do, somebody is going to peed the bed as soon as I get them back on the bed.
10. That blood doesn't make you family. Love does.
11. That some things just aren't worth fighting over.
12. That some things are definitely worth fighting FOR.
13. That crafting calms me and infuriates me.
14. That if I have extra money, something is going to break.
15. That in the almost 11 years that I have been out of high school, I have NEVER had to use anything that I learned in chemistry. .
16. That you have to accept people just the way they are, flaws and all.
17. That no one can ever break your heart as much as your children.
18. That food cooked on the grill tastes way better than on the stove. And charcoal is even better than gas.
19. That the warmest spot is snuggled up with my Hubby.
20. That prayer, faith, hope and love are everything. Without them I would be nothing.
I guess that's a long enough list from this know-it-all. I hope you enjoyed reading my list. Thanks for stopping by and come back soon.

My Worst Habit
So I told you all about The Blog Dare a few days ago. It's really a cool idea, if I can remember to do it. Which I can't. But today I did. Go me! Today's topic is, My Worst Habit.
Hmmm. Now does that mean my most annoying habit? Like interrupting people. I'm really bad about that. It's completely rude, I know. Or interrupting myself, does that even make sense? I will totally be in the middle of a conversation, have another thought, and BOOM, I'm off on another path. Babbling about something totally different.
Or does it mean my most unhealthy habit? Like overeating, or bingeing on junk food and pop. Seriously, I have been going to the gym and working out, only to come home and get in bed with an icecream bar and a pop. Its ridiculous! You would think I wanted to stay fat. I really don't. But old habits die hard, I guess.
I think I've aired enough of my dirty laundry for one day. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

The Blog Dare! My Go-To Dinner
Hey there. As you know, I joined Twitter recently and I'm so glad I did. I have discovered so many new things. One of them is Bloggy Moms. This site is hosting The Blog Dare. There is a button on my page. Check it out. Basically, you get a new writing prompt everyday of the year. I wish I would have found it sooner.
Anyway, today's writing prompt is: What is your go-to dinner? What do make you fix when you're too busy?
If I know that I'm going to be too busy to cook, then I throw something in the crockpot. Usually a whole chicken and I'll add some potatoes, carrots and onions and let it cook like a roast. But if I just had a busy day and run out of time, then I make frozen pizza and have a fruit with it. We always have applesauce so thats usually the fruit we have.
What about you? Leave me some comments with ideas for quick "busy" dinners. Thanks and check out Bloggy Moms and The Blog Dare.
