My Year in Cities 2006
Sunday, 31 December 2006 11:59 P GMT-06
I was reading someone's list of their year in cities and I thought I hadn't really been anywhere this year. Then I really thought about it and we actually got more places than I would have thought. * means more than onceMarshfield, WI (

Left is Right
Sunday, 31 December 2006 12:39 A GMT-06
"Turn left at the next road" I say as I point right.My husband's quizzical stare tells me I've done it again.In the last few days alone I have done this repeatedly, just earlier this evening I said left and right while raising my right . . .
And me without my camera

. . .we ran face to face with the tiniest little owl we've ever seen. He sat on a branch looking at us and guess what . . . this person who takes photos in bathrooms because her camera is always on her body did not have her camera. You heard me. . .
Bad Service Worse Attitude
Friday, 29 December 2006 11:59 P GMT-06
Lately it seems we've had a plethora of bad waitresses. Not sure if it's the time of year or if they've turned against us but either way we sit with empty glasses while people around us have cups running over. We had been want
Trailer Park - No emptys allowed
Thursday, 28 December 2006 12:50 A GMT-06
I wish that my camera was as quick as my husband's car. I saw a sight that I have never seen before and will most likely never see again yet have no photo proof. I assure you I saw a large parking lot full of semi-trailers with a sign at each . . .
Bathrooms (last update 08/16/07)
Wednesday, 27 December 2006 1:04 P GMT-06
I guess I just need to make a permanent link here and tell all my bathroom stories in one entry, nice and concise, as it seems something always happens to me or I have an Aha! moment in a bathroom. I make one entry thinking I've told all the
Ringing up Baby
Tuesday, 26 December 2006 11:11 P GMT-06
I had my hands on Britney's stomach for a while feeling the baby wiggle. He wouldn't wiggle very much for me. When I gently pushed he would move away. Dennis came up with idea to put his cell phone on Britney's belly and call it so it . . .
Happy Holidays!

I hope everyone has been too busy enjoying the company of family and/or friends to be surfing the net but if you are here I want to say Happy Holidays! Although we missed being with our family in Missouri we were able to get all the kids home and . .
Where you'll find old entries

Little did I know when I thought up the name for my blog how appropriate it would be. Chaos seems to always be around me and I'm glad to be able to find things to say beyond my original intent of documenting our house building process.March
Just hit Nick
Saturday, 23 December 2006 10:23 P GMT-06
After Nick and Dennis got done working on the Jeep they're trying to get running for Nick and Britney we all sat around chatting. The gamut of topics were discussed and we were winding down when Britney suddenly hit Nick. Me "What he'd d

Remember the game we played as kids called Telephone? Where several people sit in a circle, one person whispers a phrase into the next person's ear, they continue and it goes all the way around the circle until the last person speaks it aloud. . .
Where's our Wisconsin Weather?
Wednesday, 20 December 2006 7:30 P GMT-06
Wisconsin is known for it's snow as well as cold. So what's happened this year? Sure we've had some flurries, even got a few inches but with the 35-45 degree days thrown in nothing has stayed. It has been many years sinc
Canadian Cigarettes

Cigarrettes may cause sexual impotence due to decreased blood flow to the penis. This can prevent you from having an erection. You CAN quit smoking but be sure to replace your smokes with another habit - NOT hiking as your lungs are healing.

Full with Family
Saturday, 16 December 2006 8:19 P GMT-06
The absolute most wonderful thing happened this morning. It was filled with family chaos! I don't mean the bad kind, full of discourse, normal with teenagers. Nor the very maddening chaos when you have four children under 6 years old and two are
Happy Birthday Mikal!!!
Saturday, 16 December 2006 12:05 A GMT-06
Today is Mikal's 19th birthday. His 18th kind of got overlooked with all I was going through - cancer, surgery, chemo. . . Not fair at all. It seems like only yesterday Mikal was my baby. Nineteen years ago today I was on my way to the hospital. . .

I walked down the hall to the sign that said "women". I walked in and was greeted by:

There's one can of corn in the cabinet. I would like corn for dinner but I can't open it because there's only one can. I have two more squeezes of toothpaste in the tube but I can't brush my teeth this morning until I go buy more. One

There is a company, you may not be aware of, where you can get your digital pictures printed inexpensively by a company many professionals use. They used to only print for professionals but a couple of years ago they opened up to the public.&nb

The last time we've had at least five of our kids all in one spot at one time and managed to get at least one picture was the first year we lived in Wisconsin. Christmas 2003 we managed to get all five of them to get in on the tree picking

When I was 19 I worked at Wal-Mart. I worked at the Service/Returns Desk, Layaway and Front End. When I worked the Front End I was the one telling the cashiers when they got breaks and such. Well one day I had to fill in for the Door Greeter while th

If it fits into the washer it goes in. When I find something out of place I can't seem to stop myself from putting it into the washer. And it doesn't seem to matter if it was just washed the day before. Haden takes an extra shirt with us in c
