What do you use to "cut" your armpit?
The other night, we had a scare while giving Judah a bath. While we were playing, Matt noticed a red mark under his arm and was alarmed. So he raised Judah's arm, and we saw a red line in the crease of his armpit...and it looked like a long bleeding cut! Our hearts just about stopped! Then I [thankfully] instantly remembered he had been wearing a shirt with red sleeves all day. I reached out quickly to touch the redness, and sure enough -- it was a bunch of lint stuck in his armpit crease. WHEW!
Fierce Winds -- The Safe Kind
We had rain today. I was sitting here doing my Bible study while Judah napped. I knew rain was coming tomorrow and thought today was just a very gloomy day to precede the rain. It started sprinkling. Then the wind started picking up. Then all of the sudden I heard and felt the pressure on the sliding door change! Boy, was that wind FIERCE today. It was making the carport roofs wobble, our front door shift, the sliding door howl, and the rain fall in sheets. I had two thoughts, one leading to the other. First, I am SO glad that this is not the South because I'd be way afraid with that kind of wind/rain outside my house. Second, the wind was so crazy, I actually started thinking, "Ok, what if a fluke tornado DID happen here where there are no sirens...there could be one on the other side of this building and I wouldn't have warning! Yipe!" But no worries. The sun came out at sunset and the sky was mostly blue again.

Four trivial goals I have:

4) To see if this Neapolitan Dynamite cake Matt & I came up with will work (my mom is helping me with this goal)
Four serious goals I have:
1) To continue improving my Bible study skills and committing to do it on a more daily basis
2) To deepen my prayer life
3) To start being more active to maintain a healthy pregnancy -- especially by taking frequent walks to the park with Judah
4) To serve my husband and son more often out of love for them and joy that Christ has chosen this job for me rather than just to get things done
Four things I should be doing other than this:
1) Putting the last few dishes in the dishwasher
2) Changing into pajamas
3) Brushing my teeth
4) GOING TO BED!
Hey, it's pouring down rain again...

I can still make your Taco Bell order in my sleep.
Miss you, peaches.
LoL...you do better than Matt then, Thea. Only you would be able to remember it so well. And man could I go for one right now! Answer me this though, if I ordered one other thing besides the burrito and nachos, what would it be? How well do you REALLY remember? ;-P
a. I forgot you were a lifeguard!
b. what the heck is a napoleon dynamite cake?
pintos and cheese?
I think Aut is right. I think it is pintos and cheese. It's odd, b/c I remember being in your first white car, maybe I drove it once? and ordering, "a bean burrito, no red sauce, no onions, but with sour cream......and a pintos and cheese?" I just remember the second one needed no alteration. Am I right?
I wonder if you shouldn't start ordering meximelts. They are only beans and cheese heated so it's melted. V. good.
Now, to turn tables, what is one thing I would always order at Taco Bell?
If it's not pintos and cheese, is it a double decker? That's what pops into my head.
GAH
Just tell me
