Snow Is Falling

January 28, 2004 | 3 Comments

It’s been snowing pretty steady since last night and we have about 6 inches of snow so far. They say we will have about a foot of the white stuff by the time it’s all over. The best part about it for me? It has to warm up in order to snow. I said […]

I Know, I Know

I know it’s been entirely too long since I have posted an entry. Sorry to anyone that still even bothers to come look. LOL I have been out of the blog circle for a little while now getting overwhelmed with my life as always. But I always seem to come back.
So let’s see what’s […]

Well as you can see I changed the look of my blog again I’m just never satisfied. I really liked this one though because of the covered bridges in it. Vermont is well known for it’s abundance of and preservation of covered bridges throughout the state. It’s also a little nod to my […]

So Jeff calls me as he’s leaving work last night and says
“Guess who I talked to?”
I don’t have any idea, it’s been a long day and I just want him to get to the point. *sigh* He continues the guessing game
“We haven’t talked to her in a few months”
Long silence, […]

My Homework’s Up

January 14, 2004 | 4 Comments

I just wanted to post real quick and let people know they can find my homework by clicking on the blinkie on the right in between my links and my reads. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by

32 degrees below zero this morning. Did you know that people could still live at these extreme temperatures? I didn’t - but I am still alive. LOL I went and started Jeff’s truck for him this morning (he woke up with a migraine so it’s the least I could do) and I could barely […]

I Officially Hate Winter

January 13, 2004 | 1 Comment

Now you might laugh at my title of my post but I have to tell you that until this year I have always liked winter. I have grown up in VT after all and winter is a BIG part of our lives. Super sub-zero temperatures are not. We survived round one and round 2 […]

This weather is ridiculous!! It is 2pm in the afternoon, the sun is shining brilliantly outside once again, and it is -10 degrees Fahrenheit outside!! Did someone forget to tell Mother Nature that this is not one of the Poles??? The woodstove is cranking, the heat is set at 70 and I never usually […]

At least that’s how I feel this afternoon. Usually most of the children sleep quite well at naptime so I can get a little break. I spend this time eating my lunch, updating my journals, reading some blogs and just chilling out and refueling. Some days though……
To give you guys a little background […]

Much Better Day

January 7, 2004 | 2 Comments

Today is going MUCH better than yesterday did. My only complaint is that it is a colder than a witch’s………well you know. It is one of those New England winter days where the sun is shining brilliantly in the sky and reflecting off the snow and yet when you walk outside you can’t even […]

One of Them Days

January 6, 2004 | 1 Comment

Have you ever had one of those days where you hit the ground running and never seem to catch up all day long? Of course you have and they suck don’t they? LOL
I left the kitchen a mess last night so I got up early to have extra time before the daycare kids get […]

Happy Monday!!

January 5, 2004 | 1 Comment

Well I put on a good front with the whole Happy Monday title don’t I? LOL I always end up staying up way too late on Sunday nights and then dragging through Monday. Today was no different. When the alarm went off I felt like I had just gone to bed and hit the […]

My New Look

January 4, 2004 | 2 Comments

Good Sunday afternoon friends. As you can well see once you’ve arrived here I have changed the look of Julie’s Journal. I know it’s a bit drastic considering what I normally use here with country graphics but I was ready for a change. I wanted something a little sleeker, more minimalist that focused on […]

Happy New Year!! I hope everyone had a wonderfully fun and safe New Years celebration. Ours was quiet with the children and everyone but the baby and I were in bed before midnight but that’s alright. Lauren and I watched the ball drop in Times Square and then went to sleep ourselves.
Jeff and I […]
