I guess I’m a lot of things: a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister, a crafter, a cook, a reader, a writer, a homemaker, a pianist, and probably a lot more too. But at the end of the day, I’m just a Christian trying to find and obey God’s will.
The flu:
: fevers
: running eyes and noses
: cuddly toddlers, cranky infants
: lots of movies
: hours of Ergo
That about sums up my life for this past week and a half.
(I’m hoping next week’s update will be summed up in the word “sleep”… but that seems a bit improbable, eh?)
…because you should. What a time-saver!
That said, if you subscribe to my blog’s feed, do me a favor and click through. My husband gave me a little make-over, and I think it’s pretty snazzy.
Don’t you?
What to do when there’s no more granola (and no oats to make any), no cereal, no eggs, no… nothing?
Make Cornmeal Mush, of course! This is my absolute favorite hot cereal. (Okay; it’s the only hot cereal I like!)
From More With Less: (would there be breakfast without More With Less?)
Bring to boil in a saucepan:

This is one of the books we have most enjoyed reading this winter. We had it from the library for the maximum 9 weeks, and now have moved on — although I’m tempted to get it again this next time around. Jameson loves it because it’s about snow and snowmen, mittens and scarves, fireplaces [...]
William’s quilt, which was started in November, finally was completed on Friday. The piecing and quilting was all done before I headed to New York — and good thing, because William doesn’t sleep the day away anymore. I can’t imagine getting a quilt started now. In the 6 weeks since I’ve been home, I [...]
I told Jameson I was going to take pictures of his projects because his nanas would be so proud.
He has greatly enjoyed gluing and coloring and playing with cotton balls. And I certainly enjoy it more than, say, mopping the floor. (Which I finally did today.)
He’s extremely proud of these. Our landlady was here [...]
Yup, my name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley. Read more »My maiden name is Sinclair (not Patrick), and I come from good stock. (So says my husband, anyway!) I'm the oldest of 9 kids--and my parents are neither insane, uninformed, or Catholic. They're actually the best parents you could ask for. Seriously. (And, consequently, I think pretty highly of my siblings, too, whose blogs you can access from the links below.) I've joined a new clan, though, and my husband and I have been "leaving-and-cleaving" for 2 years and counting. We have a son who you'll read much (too much?) about. Oh. And there are pictures of him, too--hundreds of them--should you care to click on over to my flickr account. I'm a stay at home mom who is redefining that title--I literally stay at home as much as I possibly can. I love to be home! Home, by the way, is in Northern California, although my roots are in a lil' ol' town in Northern New York. Lastly, I take all blame for any ridiculous, outlandish, illogical posts. Anything worth commenting on or linking to is due to my husband's encouragement. In the spirit of the Little engine That Could, "He thinks I can, He thinks I can, He thinks I can,...", and sometimes, that's all a wife needs.
