Pre-teen Boys | The Zirkle Times
https://zirkletimes.wordpress.com/2013/08/16/pre-teen-boys
Living life abundantly, in the midst of everyday life…. August 16, 2013. This is like opening a can of worms… but I’m going to do it anyway. Preteen boys are exasperating! They eat. They drink. And they think the world revolves around them. Oh, and they know everything, and I do mean everything! When proven wrong they are still convinced they are right. When the cycle is complete they eat again and then some more later. I only exist for 3 reasons. 1 To rid them of said annoyances. I know, it’s a jo...

https://zirkletimes.wordpress.com/2014/09/20/summer-early-fall-happenings
Living life abundantly, in the midst of everyday life…. September 20, 2014. Summer/ Early Fall Happenings. It’s been a long time since I’ve written anything more than a couple of sentences on Facebook. My journal has even suffered lately. However, there has been so much happening that I feel it will take forever to update what few readers I have in all that has gone on. So, I will start with the end of school, beginning of Summer and fill you in on our amazing Summer as a family! The right square footage...

Abundant, Overflowing, Extravagant Blessings | The Zirkle Times

Living life abundantly, in the midst of everyday life…. November 27, 2013. Abundant, Overflowing, Extravagant Blessings. This month started out with me writing posts every day about the things for which I’m thankful. At first it was just to help change my hearts pattern of complaint. But it ended up transforming my mind, attitude, and even eyesight. This was part of one of my posts from this month :. Honestly the blessings have been abundant, overflowing, and extravagant! So, starting with hospital choic...

Living life abundantly, in the midst of everyday life…. August 12, 2013. Many thoughts… and convictions. I don’t really know where to begin. I’ve said from the beginning that I would be honest about my thought processing on this blog, and that it would not always be pleasant and happy. And I have hinted about the difficulty of the last year. Lots of things made this year difficult… but one thing was probably the biggest reason. My heart. If you love me, please pray for me. Laying down anger is hard&#...

Admission (Part 2) | The Zirkle Times
https://zirkletimes.wordpress.com/2014/05/12/admission-part-2
Living life abundantly, in the midst of everyday life…. May 12, 2014. Last year in March (right before I found I was pregnant) I posted an Admission. About my weight, lifestyle and desire to change. Well, seeing as it’s the middle of the following year and baby is born. I am right back where I started. Only this time, it also comes with a startling revelation. Today I weigh 284 lbs. and wear size 22/24 clothes on the bottom and size 18/20 on top. I’m embarrassed to even write that sentence. Oh my word Me...

Living life abundantly, in the midst of everyday life…. December 2, 2014. So again, it’s been a while since my last post. I really should get better about such things…. My surgery was on October 21, 2014 at 11:30AM. Going into surgery process I weighed 288lbs. Today I am at 242lbs. and counting. There is still a major war going on within me. A psychological one. A battle of my mind with food. Literally split between happy and anger. Most of you will not be able to identify with this post. I get that&...

https://zirkletimes.wordpress.com/2014/05
Living life abundantly, in the midst of everyday life…. Monthly Archives: May 2014. May 14, 2014. Surgery is Scary Stuff. I knew from the beginning of our relationship that a cleft lip and palate were high in the probability rate. Philip told me early on that for him and his children that it was 50/50 they would have them. And reminded that the surgery can take up to 3 hours. My baby will be under the knife for 3 HOURS! I’m so sorry I can’t seem to put myself in other people’s shoes ver...I’ve been...

A Year It Has Been | The Zirkle Times
https://zirkletimes.wordpress.com/2013/12/21/a-year-it-has-been
Living life abundantly, in the midst of everyday life…. December 21, 2013. A Year It Has Been. If you had told me last Christmas where I would be today, well… I would have laughed and called you nuts. But here I sit, and upon reflection am completely amazed by all that has happened. Since I am so fantastic about sending letters and Christmas cards (HA! I am going to use this media as the way of sending our Christmas letter. A year it has been, in review:. Oh, and I got pregnant. AJ finished his school ye...
