Saturday, a while back

October 24, 2024 by Lauren 2 Comments

A couple of weekends ago, Lloyd and I spent a little time tidying up the nook upstairs. It had all kinds of junk jammed into it, so this is an ‘in-progress’ photo:

We made some hard decisions about the toys that were kept up there. There was a small assortment for the children of friends that would come over, but since the youngest of those is a high school senior, it felt ok to let a lot of it go. Someone else would benefit from this stuff.

I did my traditional ‘put it in the back of the pickup and list it on Facebook’ thing. Most of it went by the end of the day.

And the nook? It’s much better.

Lauren will never be a baker.

October 20, 2024 by Lauren 2 Comments

I have it in my mind to be a great baker. Unfortunately, my skills leave a bit to be desired. I haven’t mastered pie crust, as you know, and now we can add biscuit making to the list of things I’m not great at doing. My mom always wanted to make some southern lady’s biscuits […]

Soooo many spills

October 17, 2024 by Lauren 1 Comment

In the past two weeks, we have had four disastrous drink spills. I think this house might be cursed. The first was when Brad was here. I got a pop from the entry, opened it, then set it on the table to go get a glass of ice. As it turned out, the can had […]

G’bye, lil’ spatula

October 15, 2024 by Lauren 1 Comment

A while back, Lloyd was heating up some chili that had been in the freezer with some plastic wrap on it. I started to unload the dishwasher and smelled burning plastic. “Did you forget to take the wrap off?” “No.” I scoffed inwardly because I knew he had….. then I saw this in the bottom […]

‘Important’ Lights

October 12, 2024 by Lauren 1 Comment

I have a weird obsession with lights. There are not many flashlights that I don’t love, although I am currently drawn to lights that you just plug in to recharge. Let me tell you about some lights around here. There is a nightlight at the very top of the stairs. It’s plugged into an extension […]

Sooooo dusty

October 9, 2024 by Lauren 1 Comment

Nebraska is in a bit of a drought now. Everything is so dry – the grass is sharp and crispy and the dust on the playground is so dehydrated it’s like walking on talcum powder. The children are so, so dirty at the end of the day. They run around and it’s like watching Pig […]
