  • My week at a glance . . .

     Today:
    My dad's birthday!  Flylady as much of the house as possible . . .we have already changed sheets on all the beds, but I need to bust out the windex and endust BIG TIME!  Plus, I picked 10 gallons worth of green beans last night and stayed up until 1 am 'snapping' them, so I have to can all of them today as well!  I need to spend about 3 hours doing PartyLite stuff too, I am going to promote out to Unit Leader August 1st!!

    Tuesday:
    Swim lessons from 11-12 (making $50, not bad), and then I told the kids we could stay at the pool, so hopefully we will get home around 3 pm.  Mark will be in the hay, so I am going to try and find a sitter and grab dinner with a girlfriend!

    Wednesday:
    More cleaning (and possibly catch another ball game . . )

    Thursday:
    Mark is off and will be finishing up haying, I have swim lessons again from 11-12, but I will finish up cleaning so I can relax all weekend . . .

    Friday:
    No major plans at this point, but I am sure a cookout and some fireworks will be on the menu!!

    Saturday:
    My moms' birthday!!
    Anyway, I hope everyone has a great week and a wonderful 4th of July

  • Okay, one of the CoT members ended up getting a job and moving about 4 hours south of us!  Julie needed this change in her life, and we are going to miss her BIG TIME, but she is going to be much better off where she is!  We had a going away party for her, and here are some pictures of that  . . .

    We all have matching charm bracelets, so we got her a charm that was an envelope (and getting ourselves one to) to remind her and ourselves that we are always only a phone call, text message, email or letter away!


    Andrea got her a pony for her collection, it was really pretty!



    I think she kinda liked my card!  "I (I) Love (Love) You (YOOOOOUUUU!)



    Here we are minus Susan (who lives in Louisiana, but will be here in a few weeks!)
    Angela, Me, Julie, Andrea, and Stephanie



    Yes, I am grabbing her buttocks . . .It is what I do (Actually, I smack it all the time) and I wanted her to have a picture to remind her of that!  I just love her!



    Big hugs baby girl!!!!  I am going to miss you!




    Julie,

    It blows my mind to think that we have been friends for such a short time, but been through so much together already!  I feel blessed to have you in my life and you have made me a better person.  You have brought laughter and tears and laughter and happiness and laughter and knowledge and laughter into my life and for that I will be forever grateful!  If EVER you need anything, I am there!!  "I stand by you . . ."

    Love,

    Sarea

  • Some observations from me . . .

    1.  If planning a yard sale, make sure to plan sleep also . . .

    2.  It is possible to only sleep 2 hours out of 40 and still function.

    3.  Caffine (in the form of a Route 44 vanilla Dr. Pepper) and a DVD with funny clips really does help keep you awake if needed.

    4.  My kids are too old to take naps. ARGH!

    5.  The weather has only been the exact opposite than they told us it was going to be for the last 4 days.

    6.  Going away parties make me sad . . .

    7.  I could easily fall asleep at Chris and Teresa's house, it is UBER relaxing (and I had been up for almost 24 hours at that point)

    8.  Even if I spend 10 hours with a friend, I want at least 3 more hours to talk with her.

    9.  Drunk phone messages from Atlanta, GA are VERY entertaining!

    10. Everyone needs a gay friend or two (even if just for perspective purposes)

    11.  Making out in public is NEVER a good idea!

    12.  Expect the unexpected, but be VERY shocked at the Unbelievable!!!

    13.  I am currently a big fan of 'on the side'.

    14.  I just watched "The Bucket List" last night, and I cried and now I want to make my own bucket list . . .

    15.  I like grocery shopping even with my entire family!! (seriously)

  • This is our newest toy . . .Mark got the kids a small four wheeler!!  They are having so much fun with it!  They were outside and on it before breakfast this morning!  It doesn't go very fast at all and they are all able to ride it (even Ethan after the first two days).
