The bad thing about a long weekend...

 For some reason you just really do not want to go back to work! Or school!

 This weekend turned out to be really nice. The kids had friends over Saturday. I was NOT a taxi all weekend long, the friends SLEPT IN on Sunday for me... Ahhhh.

 We went to my Father and Mother in laws house for Labor Day on Sunday. I always love going there. The kids also enjoy it. Takes them at least a couple hours before they decide they are bored. We ate a nice dinner and then searched for crickets and worms and went fishing in the neighbors pond. We did not catch anything, which made Bailey mad (lol) but it was nice anyway. The kids got to ride in the BACK of the TRUCK! You would have thought we just took them to the fair! On the way back the dogs tried to beat us and the kids just hooted and hollered!!! It was great!

 Destiny picked Bills brain about Democracy for this report she has to do. If she is a winner, she gets a WEEK LONG trip to DC! She has been working really really hard on this. I hope that she gets it. The other kids are rooting for her to win it also, but only because she will be "gone for a week". Sibling love. Its a wonderful thing!

 Today I went and got groceries, and Promise and I got our ears pierced "up top". Woot! The kids all got along fairly well this weekend, which was also nice. Tim worked this evening so I was "home alone" with the kids. I think I did a swell job. All in bed (asleep) by 9:30.

 So I am off to start a new week. This week I plan on getting back on the short little track I was on with my running (well walk/jogging) So cheers, to a new, short week!!!

some days

 The kids are just cute. I know I normally talk about how bratty they are. but today, well today they were just cute. All of them, even Destiny. Believe it or not.  Hannah came down the little car line to get into the van and she was smiling and so happy, and so dang cute. Promise had a friend over part of the day Bailey played mario and Destiny told me my shirt looked like a hobo shirt (it was Tims)  Today was just a good day. not sure what made it that way. the kids mostly got a long, there were a few SHUTUPS tossed out but for the most part it was pretty peaceful. I wish more days, were like today.  I went to Lowe's today to get a shelf thing to put in our laundry room. Its so exciting! TO think a shelf would be nice here, and then think YEAH, I'll put one in. See we can do that, cus we OWN our house! :) Its awesome!  I got a few more seeds today. Sweet baby peppers, zucchini and squash too. Yum. I really hope something grows this year. I am SO sore f...

Salty.

 Why is it when you do something wrong, people will point it out, over and over and notice every detail, but the things that you do right... They go unnoticed for ages?  Training at work this week has been tiring. I have been super busy so its hard to actually train someone... I have to get my tables taken care of. I have the kids just getting into the swing of things with school, and training myself to go to bed early has proven unsuccessful. I basically feel over worked and under slept. As I mentioned on facebook I think there are plenty of hours in the day... I need more hours at night, to work with....  Kids are all adjusting well to school life again. Still going to sleep easily at night, which I know wont last so I am enjoying it while I can. I cannot believe I have a child who is a sophomore this year. I am still not believing that actually.  Tomorrow is super busy, we have Dr visits, I have blood work done, Girl scout meeting to attend and then a split ...

The pitter patter of little (annoying) feet!

 I remember when my kids were little and innocent and said super cute things. It still happens sometimes, but not nearly as often. They no longer pitter patter, they clomp. Things change, kids grow.  Luckily I still have my little neighbor girl Adriana. She comes over to play with the big kids quite often and is almost always a hoot. From taking her to the "lime berry" to just silly things she says. Tonight was one of those nights.  I have not slept much and wanted a nice relaxing bath... As I am headed in there, Adriana asks me what I am doing... I tell her I am about to take a bath. "can I take one with you?" Uh.... I have  a vision of myself as Micheal Jackson...No baby, you cannot take a bath with me.... So I am in the tub, and after a while Tim came in to bring me towels... So he was in there visiting with me, and Adriana knocked and asked if she could come in... Tim told her no. "Why? Because Clorie is NAKED??? What are YOU doing in there TIM!?" ...
