Healthy Shmelthy

Posted on April 18, 2012 By Sister Rain

I am trying to eat healthier these days and one of my biggest struggles is packing a lunch everyday, both from a “what should I take?” perspective as well as from a “I don’t have time for this” in the morning” standpoint. Today I packed a pb&j (don’t laugh –…

19 1/2 Years

Posted on April 15, 2012 By Sister Rain

This morning we slept in and were laying in bed not wanting to get up. I was trying to have a conversation with the man in my bed (to clarify, it was my husband) and was getting no response. I knew he was awake. Sister Rain: “Why aren’t you talking…

“Her House Is A Hovel, But Her Blog Is Terrific”

Posted on March 27, 2012 By Sister Rain

In a text message to my husband today, I used the word “hovel” in describing my work area at my temp job. He replied, “Is this your word of the day?”. Funny guy that Mr. Sister Rain. A little while later I got to thinking and came to the conclusion:…

It Could Always Be Worse

Posted on March 24, 2012 By Sister Rain

As I do every day, I went to the same drive-thru this morning to get my large cup of blood (aka coffee) and was greeted by the first voice I hear everyday (House Rule #23 – Do Not Talk To Me In The Morning) asking “Would you like to try…
