I was not wrong last week when I surmised that I would be entering a super-abundance of busy this week.
It has been very good, most days, and the dizzyness is subsiding a little.

The younger two had their first youth group adventure this week,
and it was a rousing success.
Geneva found a new BFF,
who promptly invited her to come over for a Friday night birthday party/sleepover.
Jacob sat down at a table full of boys who spent a good portion of the evening scooting their chairs on the tile floor in competition to see who could make the most terrific farting noises, found that there were other boys who knew about Spider Man comics,
and decided that every boy he met MUST be ADHD.
He’s never fit in so well anywhere before. 😀

Last night around 9pm we got a call from our neighbor at our “own-own” house
(that’s a little phrase that harkens back to when Megan was little and wanted to specify that which was only hers from that which belonged to the community)
saying that there were prowlers at our place.
Paul promptly called the police,
and took off to meet them there.
I indicated my preference, as he walked out the door,
that he not shoot anyone.
He smirked “That’s what the cops are for.”
When he arrived the police (who were wonderfully prompt) had already arrived
and the perps were sitting all in a row on our curb side.
It was ultimately determined that they were not actually perps.
They had simply broken down outside our house.
I’m not sure what our neighbor saw,
maybe they were peering in the windows to see if anyone was home that could help them out…
in any case, no harm was done and they were released, and we were thankful that
a) we have great neighbors looking out for our place,
and b) there was no break in, because dag-nabit ,
we’ve had enough break-ins already!!

If you go to Regina Coeli Creations you can not only see,
but purchase for yourself,
some of the awesome snoods my new friend Delena makes.
You can even custom order, as I did.
I found some fabric that sang to me and sent it to her, and she sent me back these:
I know it’s not exactly how you would wear them to mass,
but you can also rock these biker style with your hair down, and they look super cool.
(If you’ve got the hair for it, I must hasten to add…)

Matthew Archbold cracks me up.
There’s just so, so much to relate to… 😀

I have been thinking housey thoughts this week and it showed up in my pinterest boards. As you can see, most of my thoughts are yellow.

I am overdue for a Mystic Monk fix. I just saw this:
