All I Really Need to Know. Monday, March 18, 2013. The Little Trees That Could. Last year, which was a really, really, really, really, really, really long time ago (it seems), we went to the Main Street Flower Market. It was a beautiful day to shop for flowers and support the city of Tyler. In addition to our purchases that day, kids were able to plant their OWN seedling tree, courtesy of the city. The boys planted little Mexican plum. Trees in what seemed like a VERY BIG bucket for such a small plant.

All I Really Need to Know...: January 2013
http://allireallyneedtoknow2.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
All I Really Need to Know. Sunday, January 27, 2013. Week in Review - Jan 27, 2013. And I'll be honest: I don't want to get up and iron. Or vacuum. Both of those things have to be accomplished before my head hits the pillow tonight. So I was just sitting here thinking about the week - how busy - and how GREAT - it was. It started last Sunday, with a baby shower for a very special friend. To me makes it all the better. I can't wait! But we still had a great day. Where, oh where, did 11 years go? Then we g...

All I Really Need to Know...: Biscuits and Gravy Casserole
http://allireallyneedtoknow2.blogspot.com/2014/01/biscuits-and-gravy-casserole.html
All I Really Need to Know. Tuesday, January 7, 2014. Biscuits and Gravy Casserole. I haven't blogged in forever. And I'm OK with that. I write all day for a living and I often write when I come home at night, too. So I'm really not bothered by neglecting my blog for a long time. A really long time. However, tonight I made something for dinner that was well received on Facebook, so instead of private messaging everyone who asked for the recipe, I figured I'd just blog it. But I digress. Hey, I'm tired.

All I Really Need to Know...: The Greatest {Elevator} Adventure EVER
http://allireallyneedtoknow2.blogspot.com/2012/02/greatest-elevator-adventure-ever.html
All I Really Need to Know. Wednesday, February 15, 2012. The Greatest {Elevator} Adventure EVER. Last week I received a LinkedIN. Invitation from a gentleman who works for ThyssenKrupp. If that name doesn't mean a lot to you, you wouldn't be alone. But in my house, ThyssenKrupp is as familiar as GE or Sears or Lego. Or even more so. You see, ThyssenKrupp manufactures elevators. And Curt and Luke LOVE. Curt has even created a company, Donakina, ( don't ask, I don't know what it means. During the drive to ...

All I Really Need to Know. Saturday, February 23, 2013. The Incredible, Shrinking Suitcase. How is it that I packed an ENTIRE WEEK'S. Worth of clothes into this suitcase for vacation last summer, but I can't begin to get Curt's belongings for three days of camp into the same vessel? I'm going to blame the fact that it was summer and the clothes are smaller. And that he didn't need two bath towels, a rain jacket and fleece pajama pants on vacation at the beach. Gets to go to the Camp Tyler Outdoor School.

All I Really Need to Know. Tuesday, October 8, 2013. I am so tired it's not even funny. I'm not even tired for any good reason (bar the extreme vitamin deficiencies I'm working hard to correct). It was a normal work day (not even a death threat! An organized Cattle Baron's. Meeting, soccer practice, dinner (which I'd prepped last night and thrown in the slow cooker this morning), and the usual evening routine of checking homework, signing agendas, etc. I wish there were a few more hours in today," I said.

All I Really Need to Know...: Sixth Grade So Far
http://allireallyneedtoknow2.blogspot.com/2013/09/sixth-grade-so-far.html
All I Really Need to Know. Thursday, September 5, 2013. Sixth Grade So Far. We've almost come to the end of the third week of the sixth grade and all I can say is, IT'S BEEN AWESOME. Sixth grade started giving me gray hair more than a year ago. I didn't have any kind of peace about where Curt should go to school. I prayed. A lot. I prayed for peace. I prayed for the right place for him. We visited Cumberland Academy. One kid nearby rolled his eyes, but Curt was in HEAVEN. The icing on the cake? I still w...

All I Really Need to Know. Monday, September 23, 2013. The Thing About Hurricanes. I couldn't sleep last night, so I was scrolling through old photo albums on Facebook. I came across "Hurricane Ike, September 2008" and realized it's been just over five years since that storm. Cut its fierce swath from Africa, over Cuba and made a direct hit on the Texas Gulf Coast, where I was living at the time. That awaits when the winds have dulled from a roar to a whisper and you peer out into the first light. We wer...
