Dear mrs Odient,
We received your letter to the Bureau of Lost Causes. We read your request for some 'Me Time'.
We had a real good laugh.
Thanks for that.
Yours insincerely,
Saint Anthony of Padua, head of Bureau of Lost Causes
Why is it, that creating good habits requires a lot of hard work, while picking up bad habits is as easy as pie?! Or ice cream in my case? It only took one Saturday! All it took was one Saturday. One Saturday when I ate a whole tub of icecream. And wouldn't you know...
I love comments. And when I write, what I think is a particular witty post, I can't wait for the comments to pour in. Unfortunately, they don't pour. At best they trickle. So to torture myself I go on a tour and visit popular mom blogs, and read their ± 300 comments. And I ask...
'Try to do something nice for someone else every day!' I always tell my children. Sometimes you have to wait until an opportunity to do something good presents itself. And this weekend a lovely chance fell right into my lap. Childhood memories Someone had read one of my posts about children's bibles. She'd recognized one...
I have shoulder length, kind of wild hair. Usually I grab the part of the hair in the front, and pin it to the back of my head. But this week my 15-year old daughter gave me an actual hairdo. And it wasn't even difficult. All it required was an elastic hairband. And just look at...
My dad died on April 26th. We knew he had cancer for 7 years, but he was doing well. Until suddenly he wasn't. It's been long enough I know he's gone, but I suddenly got this overwhelming feeling: 'I want him back! He's been long enough! Isn't it odd how the human mind works... I...
Everyone has them: odd habits. Mine is to take a giant leap every time I want to lie me down to sleep. I start out in the hall way, push off in our bedroom, and jump with all my might into our bed. I háve to do this, you understand. Otherwise the monster beneath our...
This is too funny, love the denied stamp and that you can't have me time. I love my me time for making jewelry, snuggling with cats and eating chocolates.

Love the denied stamp. I love me time too. Thanks for linking up at Family Joy Blog Link Up party! Hope you join us often.
Hope you are able to get some me time this weekend! Thanks for sharing with #SocialButterflySunday! Hope to see you link up again this week 🙂
As a mom, I know this feeling.
Yes, me time is important!
I hope so too!
I have to say, as the little ones get older, you won't need to pull that stamp out as much. Me time get easier to have. Happy Easter. And sneak a chocolate bunny from a basket and slip away without anyone looking and enjoy.
Oh my goodness. Too true my friend. I hope that God blesses you with some time for you in the very near future! Thanks for linking up at Life is Lovely!
Oh too funny!! It took me a minute but when I picked up on it, it sure got me tickled. Thanks so much for linking up at #lifeislovely
LOL!! Me time is overrated perhaps?? JK thanks for linking up #HomeMattersParty
I don't want to believe it's overrated Crystal. I think it's as important as oxygen.
Thanks! You're giving me hope : )
I'd trade ME time for a NAP any day. Or does that fall under the me time category? Naps are a must-have, because I NEVER get enough sleep. The rest is gravy.
For me a nap is indeed the same thing : )
lol! love it! short and funny, right on!
Thank you so much for sharing this over at #bloggerspotlight link and Pin-it Party. I do appreciate it and hope to see you again!
PS: FYI, maybe it is just in my end ..I was trying to pin this but it says Pinterest couldn't find pinnable images. Tried couple of times.
