Yesterday I bought something on Craigslist for the first time. For the last month I have been stalking the furniture listings knowing that many people would be getting new furniture for Christmas and cleaning out due to resolutions. Some of the "great" condition pieces of furniture were far from it and that was just from ...
January is going to be a month of reading and reconnecting. Over the past several months the kids and I have spent way too much time in front of our screens and not enough time outside, being crafty, or having our noses in books. We are going to be restricting our time online and from ...
I'm snuggled in the bed under big blankets next to Mr. K. I am sick. My only semi-off week and I've been sick for half of it. I am not sure if this was a blessing or a curse. I've slept a lot. I've read a lot. I've enjoyed doing nothing. I quit my job. Yes, ...
Lots of little tid bits to share tonight. After two weeks of going between 17 and 20 lbs lost I finally broke the plateau today. I have now lost 21.5 lbs. YES! I had really wanted to be down 30 lbs by Christmas but having my mother in law here causes me to stress eat. The ...
knock knock knock .... anyone still around? I know, I am neglecting this whole blogging thing. Neglecting my writing. Just today I finally got caught up in my reader. Things have been crazy around these parts. In fact insane. Since the last time I wrote here I may have become an ordained minister. Email me if you ...

I've been wanting to get Mr. K in a kayak for months and this past Sunday it finally happen. I actually prefer to kayak on a sit upon kayak but because of the cooler weather and being on the Delta I decided to get in to ...
I received two tickets to see Duran Duran at Bayfest as part of their social media campaign #Duransocial to promote their new album All You Need Is Now. Growing up I missed a huge part of pop culture: Duran Duran and the birth ...
Time and time again I get offers from marketing agents and those in the PR biz to help broaden their reach into the online community. I turn down 99% of these offers. Occasionally something appeals to me and if I think it will benefit the community or my family in a positive way without compromising ...
It has been nearly two years since I have had a check up from the doctor. Sure I have run into urgent care a few times when I felt like death but not an appointment to discuss my overall health. I'm not going to lie, for months now I have felt like a lethargic, panicky ...
Welcome to my blog! I'm Kim, a thirty-something wife and homeschooling mother of five. I'm a foul mouthed, Jesus loving liberal whose hobbies involve cooking and sex with the infamous Mr. K. I live in the Bible Belt on the Gulf Coast of Alabama and I can assure you life here is anything but boring.
