Okay.  It’s hot and humid.  It could be worse, really, but it’s not great to sleep in, especially since my house gets really warm at night and there’s not great ventilation in my bedroom.
I already tried sleeping outside on the trampoline, which would have been an acceptable solution, except that all the bugs in the […]

Power Outage

June 26th, 2008 · 3 Comments

While I was safely tucked away at work in Ann Arbor, apparently a storm came through Troy — knocking out a lot of the power in the area, including mine. I just wanted to let you all know. It’s kinda nice, being able to still be connected, but I think I’m going to […]

WHAT IS IT??!?!?!?!

WHAT IS IT??!?!?!?!Originally uploaded by CadyLy
 This may say a lot about me.  I am getting ready to go to bed, since I have to get up freakishly early in the morning (even for me, who normally sets the alarm for 4:30 am).  I step out of my bedroom for a minute and happen to catch […]

Does anyone have any idea how to deal with this???

Because I’m a little at a loss. Except for sitting down and weeding them all out, which would take days….

Yet another reason why I love my Crackberry.
After much debate, I decided to go to OLGC for morning Mass this morning.  Why was it a debate?  Well, after being laid off from my job in Ann Arbor on Saturdays, I didn’t really have a good justification to spend the $12 in gas to get there […]

Faith, Trust and Confession

June 7th, 2008 · 3 Comments

I should have known something was up when I forgot to bring a book with me to read at Starbucks after Mass before going in to work.  As a result, I had nothing to read while I sat there with my scone and mocha, so I cleaned out my purse.  And I found this badly […]

How My Car Teaches Me About God, Parenting and Myself

May 23rd, 2008 · 2 Comments

I went to Mass this morning in a pretty good mood, about half-way into my trip, I put on a Podcast talking about what happens during Mass.  I am actually not sick today — feeling pretty good physically; so that helped my happy mood, too.  I was running a little late and walked into church […]

Roasted Shallots

I’ve never made shallots before, and I’m about to use them in 2 recipes for dinner on Saturday. I thought I would try roasting one first, just to see what it tasted like. Mostly, like onions.
This is also going to be my first time having one of my priests over […]

John 15:16
“You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.”
This seems like an apt reflection for the day.  For a while now, I […]

Teaser Photo

April 22nd, 2008 · 5 Comments

Here’s just one of the many, many pictures that I took over the weekend.  I do not have a great zoom, and was sitting quite high in the stands, so the picture is a little fuzzy (digital zoom will do that).
It was amazing!  It was great!  I need a thesaurus for my superlative adjectives!
One day, […]
