What do you think?

Link or Ironman?
Kirby or Riku?
Cloud or Kevin?

I am not taking bets, but here is the opening match:

Round 1: Ironman vs Link

Winner: Link

Round 2 to follow.

Drama Island - Our Style

Today began with Taylor requiring a bucket at both business ends of the child. She was very sick most of the morning dozing off on the couch and running and bowing to the porcelain god.



That was six hours ago. Now she is bouncing off the walls looking for something to do that girls with the flu can do. She is lamenting about having to miss Tail Waggers and demanding that I make her siblings play with her.



Good thing this flu is short lived. When does the "24 hour keep them away from others" protocol begin, with the first trip to the bathroom or the last? She will be going to softball practice and Bible study tomorrow night.

Pondering...

I have a question.

I applied for a job at Menard's to stock shelves bright and early in the morning on Mondays through Fridays. It seemed like a good fit to me. A little extra money, employee discount on roofing materials, and the hours won't mess with my kid's summer sporting schedules. I get that I may not be what they were looking for and didn't see the great fit that I did, but shouldn't they at least have the common courtesy to return my phone call and/or reject me in writing?

I hear this voice in my head whispering, "Hey, Deb! The 80's called... They want your expectation for courtesy back."

To a bonfire we will go, To a bonfire we will go...

Hi everybody. It's Azure. If you live here the weather's great, nice and warm. You know what I love about Fridays? You can stay up late and sleep in on Saturday. (Unless you've got something shaking.) We're going to our friend's house today for a bonfire, s'mores, and the crowd favorite game; run-away-from-whoever-is-on-the-four-wheeler. It's going to be wicked fun! We still have to do math before we go. If you haven't read my last post, we are a homeschooling family and proud of it. Please remind me to tell you what we did. To do that just leave a comment. Over and out. ;) LOL

Every which way and random

Hi I'm Azure. (That's a short "a", a "sh" sound only the "s" is a "z" and the rest of my name sounds like "er") Lots of people get my name wrong. I've even been called "Asher" before that's a boy's name. But then again I am used to it. I'm Deb's oldest. Just so you know, the blog is mine on Thursdays and Mondays to post something.

We are still praying for Stellan a little baby with heart trouble. PLEASE keep him in your prayers. My mom cried when she read MckMama's (Stellan's mom) post. Very good blog. Even Steven Curtis Chapman is praying for Stellan.

My dad and I are in an Easter play. I'm a townsperson, my dad's a Jewish leader. We are performing on Good Friday at our church. When the townspersons make their final exit, I'm going to shed tears. (Not real ones, but I can actually make myself cry.)

Tomorrow my mom, sister, and I are going to a Super Chick concert with some friends of ours. It's going to be AWESOME!

And just for the sake of explaining our blog title, Nomless, check out www.icanhascheezburger.com You will see that whenever the picture or caption has something to do with food, they call them "noms" and "noms" at our house are candy. When we named the blog we were "Nomless" Ha Ha.

The other day I claimed I ate my homework. My mom was helping me with a concept I didn't get with my math. I had torn off a piece of paper I did my math on and was chewing on it. When I got the concept Mom asked to see my work I declared I had eaten it. But the really funy part was she took me seriously. So she started flipping through my math book to make sure I didn't stick it in there. While she did that she asked me if I had swallowed it. I said no, I had just spit it into the garbage can. But the jig was up when she saw my work behind me. "Is that it?" she asked. I glanced over my shoulder "No." I said, but it actually was. So later I asked her why she had actually thought that I had eaten my homework. She said that knowing me I very well could have. That's all I have to report.

Happy April Fools

Today I woke up to no silverware, no soap in the shower, no pants in my dad's closet, my mom's cereal switched with legos, and almost being tangled in my covers.

This is April Fool's at our house.

So far this week we have been praying for baby Stellan a small baby with heart trouble. So please pray for him.


Good Day to You all

Parker
