this proves my son is a genius

November 28, 2011

Sometimes you look at your children with pride and think “I MADE THAT!” Then sometimes your kid does something that makes you wonder if it’s possible they were dropped at birth by the doctor.

i could have been reading “War and Peace”

June 13, 2011

I went to Books-A-Million this weekend. Of the millions…no trillions…of pages of BRILLIANCE to be found, we spent our time busting a gut over things like: and Not to forget Please? Duh???!!! How many days till Father’s Day?

i may have 1 good leg and 1 good arm, but I still have 2 good boobs apparently

May 31, 2011

Once upon a time, I had quite the impressive bosom. NO LIE. To be really blunt about it, “the twins” were fun. They did the BEST card tricks! The strokes were a lot of adjustment physically. Wheelchairs to get used to. Legs that don’t work. Arms that don’t feel. Faces that aren’t straight. But still. [...]

big deal on the internet

March 18, 2011

I’m a dork. I once tripped on a set of stairs and got a GIGANTIC bruise, but kept going. Did I mention the bruise was ON.MY.FACE. Then there was the time a spider landed on my leg while I was driving. And I drove into the ditch. There was that once that I was wearing [...]

thing you aren’t supposed to do in a wheelchair

October 20, 2010

It was our first time in the airport together. Amanda and I had a little time to kill (since I wasn’t a terrorist this time) and we headed for coffee. We always have a little tussle when it comes to paying for coffee. My turn.  Her turn.  My turn.  Her turn. MY TRIP = MY [...]

what i do in the shower

October 4, 2010

Someone asked me how I shower. There wasn’t enough money in the world to make THAT vlog happen. But there wasn’t a good way to describe it. So. Here you go. p.s.  Next post?? My secret to really, really, REALLY shiny hair!

i guess we won’t be having rice for dinner tomorrow

July 23, 2010

I’ve been lucky that week after week we’ve been able to have friends or family here.  It would have been so much easier if we lived in Tampa or Daytona, where we have lots of loved ones.  We have managed the past months on the hearts of those that taken time to come to Georgia [...]

funkytown, one turn past Allentown and Elizabethtown

June 8, 2010

Sometimes I get in a funk. Then I have to make myself find reasons for to get out of it. There’s been physical progress, conference opportunities, Extreme Home Makeover videos, husbands that make threats involving things that are put up high. Funk?  When do I have long to wallow in the funkadelio? Mainly because the [...]

oh! the joy of motherhood…it takes a lot of SOMETHING

May 10, 2010

I woke to the smell of cooking eggs and muffins. “Don’t look, mama!!” is screamed at me. Plates made of goofy writing and coffee cups with smiling pictures adhered carefully are as good as gift of gold. The sun shines down on gleaming smiles and freshly scrubbed faces. “He’s touching me!” “She used my blue [...]

my first steps of independence, but i only have one leg that works, so its the faceplant of indepedence

April 25, 2010

Last night my oldest daughter had a sleepover and our son was home late from an outing.  It meant our youngest was an only child for a while. It was torture, clearly. So to make up for it we offered her the kind of reward only possible at Chick Fil A.  Waffle Fries.  Yay!!! But, [...]

i’m obviously handicapped. i should be pitied and given parking. that’s how it works, right?

April 4, 2010

So a lot of you are wondering what the stroke has done. And, I’m going to tell you. My whole right side is paralyzed….leg, arm, torso, so-forth. My face is numb….my jaw and lips have issues. I have crap eyes now and double vision. I have ear and hearing problems. That’s most of it. I’m [...]

If we’d had one more day there probably would’ve been a boar’s head on a stick somewhere

November 3, 2009

Corporations would call it a “Team Building”. At Aiming Low, we call it “Times when you’d better wear a diaper cause chances are good you might pee a little”. (I don’t even watch The Office and this is funny…probably because I love Ali Martell…no, I REALLY love Ali Martell) I mean, come on, there’s not [...]
