You can’t play house without a cute apron… and the one I have is only a little bit cute. So, Dear Mr. Bee, just think of all the neatly folded undershirts you would have if I had one of these…

(aprons from Anthropology… click-ety click)

Insomnia does have some beautiful perks! A sunrise view from my office window…

 …Just thought I’d wave a quick hello and let you know that we didn’t get lost in the woods. I’m trying to get back into the swing of things now that summertime is settling in around here. I don’t think I ever said anything out loud on my blog… so I’ll catch y’all up… the condensed version. My Mom’s surgery went well and her recovery is going better than expected. Those of you who have heard through the grapevine and have taken the time to write and call, Thanks So Much for all the well wishes and prayers. It will be a long year of healing and more surgeries that will hopefully allow her to walk again, and your support goes a long way. She’s now at a long term care facility that has (mostly) kind nurses and seems pretty clean. Her roomie’s name is Dixie… a sweet grandma that could use some extra love and more visitors. My mom needs that too… I don’t feel like I’m there nearly often enough… but it turns out that she’s been spending time on the other side of the dividing curtain, comforting and consoling her new friend, and it warms my heart because she’s been the helpless one for so long. She’s a young spring chicky in comparison. I didn’t feel very comfortable with the idea of her sharing a room at first, but it’s turned into the sweetest thing. Today I’ll take the kiddos with me and her old guitar… my plan is to start strumming off key (I’m naturally musically UNgifted) and hope she’s feeling well enough to take it from me and show us how it’s done. Grandma, Dixie, and the three Bees are gonna rock the house!
