Its here! really here! Last night I woke up thinking YEAH its saturday I don't have to get up when the alarm goes off. Course then I remembered that no it WAS not Saturday and that's why I think this day has been weird. Allergies, cranky, tired, stomach ache.
Lots to do this weekend. Going to be packing up for the retreat and getting the house cleaned and laundry done! Wahoo.....
Hope you all have GREAT Friday!!
Sorry guys I really didn't mean to not blog for so long. I have just had some REALLY busy days at work and so much other stuff going on that the blog once again took a back seat. There are some wonderful things that could possibly happen that I can't share yet but I am hoping and praying that this wonderful thing truly happens. If and when it does I will be able to post about it, but for now its really consuming every bit of me and even after the wonderful thing is over I still have so much going on!! lol
The retreat is NEXT weekend!!! WHAT!? Yes it sure crept up on me fast! Apparently two ladies can not make it so their spots are open if anyone is interested!
On the 27th my office is hosting a breast cancer awareness tea for ladies ONLY. Fun door prizes and pink goodies!! I am also trying to get that planned and ready.
The only thing I really feel good about right now at this very minute? My coffee ( full of yummy chocolate hazelnut creamer) and my kitchen is clean. There is always something in my kitchen not clean, the floor, the stove, dishes in the sink from the boys cereal etc. Bur right now at this minute its clean. Of course by the time I get home from work tonight it will be a disaster again. ugh. lol...
I am really hoping this "wonderful" thing happens so even though I may not be able to tell you all about it yet will you send good thoughts our way??????
I'm at work today but still not feeling great. Have no inspiration to post so I will leave you with a photo.
wait. don't have one of those either.
owell....
Not feeling any better today. Actually worse. Chills, fever, tummy yuck. Been sleeping and resting and hoping that I feel better soon.
I took some photos of my mother in law and her husband last weekend. Here are a few of my favs and a sneak for her!
Its nearly 7 and I sit at the computer in the dark while the kids still slumber in my jammies (they are not in my jammies, I am). I do NOT feel well. Did not have a great night and still having stomach pains and nausea. I am hoping its not the flu. Darla is off today to volunteer at our kids school, and I have to go in, so I am trying to suck it up and just handle it. I really need to get in the shower and get the boys moving. I just really don't care! lol.
While I sit here drinking mint tea hoping to settle my stomach, I am also reading some blogs. Here are some of the blogs I am looking at.

Ok now I really need to move. Still have a dishwasher to unload, kids to get ready, me to get ready, laundry to change, dog to feed, oh crap never mind, I think I will crawl back into bed. lol. night everyone.
This last june when we were in seattle visiting my mother we went to pike street market place and believe it or not saw something I have NEVER seen there before and apparently its a HUGE deal. It sure looked like a huge deal. The GUM WALL!!!!
my kids were not all that impressed!!!
unfortunatly none of us were chewing gum so we couldn't share! lol
I have a neighbor (well not directly a neighbor, he lives down the street and around the corner) who likes to use is fireplace in the fall and summer. Now we all know how that smells. A little like cam fire minus the bugs right? Not his!!! For years this guy has burned only heaven knows what in his fireplace. Either pre treated lumber, garbage, tires, or automobile oil. Maybe even a combination of any of those. It is seriously gross and it was sooo bad this morning that you could smell even with all the doors and windows closed. When I got in my car and turned on the heater the smell came in. I just left to grab lunch and its STILL there when the vents come on. It is the most acrid horrible smell and I have no idea what the rest of the neighborhood thinks! Is there any law or ordinance that he his breaking cuz its seriously and ON GOING issue. I seriously want to call the cops but don't want to be the bratty neighbor if there is no reason!!! ACKKK what to do????
Anyway....
Here is the bag i made this weekend!!!
I made two at a time and they are almost the same and so I decided to take the second one to the retreat for my auction item!!!
