Just opening this up for y'all-- Gary is the sweetest- he knew I was tired and let me sleep in and he took Scott to school. But that means no time for the O ATM.

off to go food shop (blech) and then I wil have a few minutes to stop in and say Hi and send hugs before I have to go help the PTA at cait's school.

Love you all!

It's Friday! I have the day off after a LONG week with late nights and too much going on at school. Mr. Wonderful is out of town so instead of sleeping in this morning I called to make sure he was up. I had intentions of going back to sleep, but started watching The Majestic with Jim Carrey and it was all over. I love that movie and the fact that such an amazing comedic actor can play a great serious role as well.
DD number 3 and I are going out to lunch and doing some shopping today - that is if she ever drags herself out of bed :)
Hope everyone has a wonderful Friday!

morning, girlies!!!

Today is our second week of our cleaning schedule! Mr Gorgeous made up a list and we are to pick up Friday for an hour and scrub the house top to bottom on Saturday. So we'll see how it all goes. I've already picked up most of my room...i still have one desk to really clean off...procrastinator that I am!!! :)

this afternoon Megan (my photographer friend who is MIA on the O because of all of her photography work!!! !!) is dropping her two kiddos off at my house for the weekend. Her hubby is a train engineer and drives trains all over SW texas, and she has a big weekend photo shoot in Galveston with a professional photographer whom she assists. So we've got the kids until her hubby comes back tomorrow...or maybe Sunday...you never know with the railroad, i'm told! So that should be fun. Her daughter is one of my youngest's bff, and then she has a 1yo son. So I'm gonna spend the early afternoon kid-proofing my crazy non-kid-proof house!! heehee!!!

Tomorrow is Quentin's actually football at the park birthday party. I do have to go to the store to get candy and cake stuff for it. That'll be really fun, too!! The park is huge and all the kids can just run and run and run....love that!!!

Sunday, I'll probably crash and scrap and quilt all day after church!! I think I have to go to something, but I'm not sure what that is!!! we'll see about that (hopefully before Sunday!! ahahahahahaha)

oh yeah...and I'm feeling soooooooo much better!! It's amazing what one day in bed ALL DAY (last sunday) can do for you!!!

Chris, hugs to you!! enjoy your day today!!!

Linda, you can do it!! I'm with you...clean so you can scrap!! yay!!! and I only have one more regular challenge and the OSorted challenges to finish my list for the month!! yay!!!

hugs to everyone who comes in, too!!!
LOVE you ALL!!

Hi, everyone!
Sounds like a few have the day off (lucky folks!)
I'm just wrapping up here at work before I head out, pick up pizza, drop it off at home, then head out for Ladies Night at the knitting store. I will finish the baby blanket tonight, so I hope to have a picture of it up in the morning. Then I get to start on my mom's lace scarf and knitted/felted oven mitt, probably tonight as well.
Tomorrow I'm going to clean our garage and basement. Once I get the basement done, I can work on some scrapping, since it will clear out some space in my hobby area. DH has already done most of the laundry today, so I just have to do my delicates load on Sunday.

Sally - so glad to hear you are feeling better. Galveston is one of my fave places in Texas (just behind Austin), though I haven't been there since that terrible storm last year.

Hope everyone else enjoyed their day!!

Hey everybody! We're here at the Great Wolf Lodge. The girls have their own little "room within a room" that looks like a camp area, and has their own tv and bunk beds. I have my own Queen bed and couch. We're about to go eat. Clara, our meals are covered, so we'll have to find something that we don't hate. LOL. We have buffet passes for dinner and breakfast and a card loaded with $85 for lunch, which we will only have two of. Sat and Sun. If the three of us cannot find something we want to eat for $40/day, then something is wrong with the world.

So far so good except that

I FORGOT MY CAMERA..... can you believe it? I was actually thinking, right before we left, "how awful would it be if I forgot my camera?" and then I did. I guess I have to depend on my phone camera and possibly an expensive disposeable. I was thinking of trying to find a waterproof one for the water park anyway. Oh well. Can't complain.

I just popped in, actually just making sure my internet in the hotel room works. It does. :)
I'll check back in tomorrow!

This actually reminds me of a funny story. When we went to Great Wolf my cousin was in town and she wanted to give Ethan something for his birthday but because she isn't around all the time she had no idea what he would want. So she came up with the idea to give him a waterproof disposable camera. So he opened it up and thought it was cool. Then he took a picture and then got all sorts of confused. he couldn't find where the picture showed up. He only had seen and used a digital so the concept of a film camera made no sense to him. So them my cousin sat him down and got it all explained to him. So then we went out into the Wave pool and someone wanted to get some pictures of him and he totally wigged out. "I only have 27 pictures on the camera." It was pretty darn cute. It is so weird that kids see things so much different than we do. Digital is the norm, they don't even know what film is. A VCR? What's that. What is that big square thind behind the tv in the thrift store mommy? why is the tv so big? Why does that guy have his x-rays in a giant envelope? (I've never taken x-rays on film) Life is weird how fast it changes.

So, today is a good day. I met with a friend of mine for lunch. I got an e-mail simply titled "LUNCH!!!!" and knew it was urgent. She works at the church and she was going buggy. She tries really hard not to get frustrated but some days she feels like her head is going to pop off so we went and got lunch. I took off early because some guy exposed me to swine flu because we were out of masks and that didn't thrill me. The place they do their ordering from has them on back order. I decided that since I work for the hospital I should just go get some. So I did. I needed a few other things anyway, like pens, post-its, etc. All the things we can't get from drug reps anymore. Bad for us but hopefully eventually good for the drug prices. We'll see. I don't think it will actually make a difference on prices because I don't think they'll drop the prices but some of the stuff they made to put their name on was ridiculous.

Tonight is the big fancy pants church celebration. It should be fun. We'll see. Tomorrow will be an interesting. I changed my plans up a little. Addie is just having all sorts of issues. Derek always throws such a fit about being frantic at night that I try not to throw him off and so sometimes the kids pay for it, so right now Addie is paying for it and she isn't getting enough mommy time right now. So, I think I am going to hang out with her tomorrow afternoon before going out to play with my friends tomorrow night. derek is real quick to point out what I need to do but not real quick to help me out to figure out a way to make it work. Very frustrating.

Alright ladies...

Chris - awesome that Gary let you get some rest. I hope you start feeling better. How is Scott doing this week? Praying all weekend and I'll be fasting on Monday until I hear good news, so get online quick and tell us good news so that I can eat. :) You guys deserve some good news and some help with all of this.

Linda - Not at 9:30. I had shows to watch. But not too late. Addie woke up right before I went to bed so I got her and we went into the guest room where Ethan was sleeping and we both climbed into bed with him and went to sleep until Derek woke us up in the morning trying to figure out why we weren't in our beds. He didn't know if I was mad at him for some reason or if the kids were sick or what and I was still sleeping so not making sense and I just thought it seemed like a good idea ta the time. No good reason. LOL!! I hope you got some good scrapping done.

LindaP - That is weird that you have the conferences in the evenings. We have school off to do them. I love that movie too. It is awesome. I hope you have a good day with your daughter.

Sally - have fun at quentin's party. We have Addie's party next weekend at my parent's house. That should be fun. There is no way we could do a park party here right now. we'd all freeze to death. That would make for a miserable party. addie's bday party in a few weeks is going to be at the children's museum where it will be nice and warm.

Leslie - sounds like you have all sorts of projects to do this weekend. I really need to scrap. I just have no motivation at the moment, which stinks because I have a lot of stuff to do for my CTs and stuff. A lot. I need to get moving. Ugh!!

andrea...have a blast girlie!!

Kat - Christmas shopping? Mostly done? We can't be friends anymore unless you come and help me do mine. I am so not motivated. I've just been depressed. Not horribly depressed, like lay in bed unable to get up. Just not very motivated and don't want to get stuff done. This is just not the time of year to feel like that. I prefer it when it happens in the spring because the sunshine forces it out of me. I'll be good and ready for my cruise though. maybe Cozumel will keep me from going into the weather depression next year. I have decided I am saving change for coz. I have a giant change bucket and that is its purpose. I've got a plan.

Alright...I'm outta here. Peace out!!

Hello ladies! It's been quite a week. I had hoped to take it easy to re-build my strength from having been sick for a week! Guess what? That's not how it worked out!

This is the first night all week that I've been home all week. Monday night we had gymnastics. Tuesday night I left work and went directly to gymnastics and then to school conferences so didn't get home until 8:30. Wednesday night I was headed home and Mom was having chest pains so I turned around and took her to the ER. It was just her stomach but we didn't get home until 9:50. Last night was swimming lessons. Tonight...I'm home!!! Yay!

Tomorrow is Shaun's 7th birthday! He is so excited. My niece has a basketball tournament this weekend so after her 5 o'clock game tomorrow, we'll all come back here for pizza, cake and ice cream.

Then I'm working out on Sunday...first time in 3 weeks because of the flu! I'm really dreading starting again. :-(
