I have a feeling

this weekend will be nothing but relaxing. The rain is here and they even mentioned the S word yeah I know what is going on here! I have shaved my winter coat it can't get cold again lol! I finally got to the eye Dr. after complaining for 2 x-mas now that I should of got glasses with my Christmas money. I have a pair of transitions that have been cracking so I see nothing but everything through a broken glass! The Dr even said he had a hard time reading the script from it it was so distorted! Good thing the other day I broke off the tip of the temple behind my ear or I would still be seeing through broken glass for who knows how long. I did it though I ordered a pair of contacts after 10+ years of glasses that I hate! See what happens to a person when they don't have to look at price tag first, it felt so strange to order them and not even ask how much they were going to be. I really don't care, today I did something for myself that was long over due! I picked B up from school and we headed to town for a night out of shopping something we rarely do. K-mart was having a sale on movies, but of course by today they were all gone. B did find a movie with talking dogs for 6.99 that she hadn't seen. Then over to Target to see what goodies they had on the Clarence racks B had to give her 2 cents "Mom you always look at these, the stuff is the same from the last time you were here". Which actually we were just there while Pa was in town so about a week ago. She is one out spoken little lady. She is just like me when I was her age. The way she is with her friends and the boys at school she has that sense of humor about her. It is so weird to see me all over again, but yet have a lot of Steve in her as well. Like she said we didn't leave with much. We stopped on the way home and got her little friend to stay the night. Now I'm hoping I still get to sleep in.

Getting things organized

it seems I have a lot of time on my hands lately. It's funny how life changes when you are only looking after yourself. I'm just about caught up after doing nothing but visiting with out of state family for the last two weeks, let me just say it was a nice vacation for all of us (i hope). It's hard for "big" city folk to adjust to this slow small town livin. As always I was sad to see them go. In the next three weeks I'm hoping to get in a lot of quality time with the little one well I'm not even sure I can say that any more she has grown to be quite the young lady. It's weird how you notice things like that just the little things. Having all this free time has got my mind going and I'm realizing that I myself can work on becoming a better Mother, Wife, Daughter(in-law), Sister(in-law), Aunt, Granddaughter, Friend. I recently got reacquainted with some old friends from middle & high school (one of my best actually) it is so good to hear from the past, just makes me miss home even more. It's funny how everyone that I cared most about from back then all became something working with children and education. That has always been my passion. I never noticed they all wanted the same, actually I don't remember hearing of it. It's funny how so much alike I am with the people I grow up with. I'm so glad they are all doing so great and they look so good. Well I better get off here I could talk forever and I have things to do before soccer tonight.

And they're off........

last night Steve and Larry finally got on the road around 8:00. As always it was a sad goodbye why do I hate goodbyes so much! He called this morning and they were stopping in Indianapolis to get some sleep before they finish their journey. They will be in Ohio by this evening. Now is my time to spend with my Gramps before he heads home in about five days or so. I'm going from a house full to B and I. I am so glad we got some visitors it feels really nice to share your home with others. Luckily we had a couple really nice high 70's days so I could start on my tan YAY SPRING!!!!! OH Happy first day of Spring everyone. I know I've been slacking but I'm out having fun and I'm going to slack a little more so till next time.

oooops

darn this nice weather! I forgot about my bigger and better things. We have had such nice weather that I have spent my days out side in the yard. Today is also looking nice after an early morning rain storm, but unfortunately I am stuck inside with my good friend Mr. Washing machine, trying to get ready for the new week of B having to now pack lunches. My life is becoming some what of an "all American average family" lol! With this week also brings some visitors a good friend of ours from Ohio will be here for a couple days then my Pa will be in town for a week or so, I am so looking forward to seeing him. WELCOME SPRING!!!!

Finally.........

Its done and somewhere between MO and TX! I guess after that experience I am a procrastinator! In the end I was pleased and I hope she is as well. Now comes the next anticipation of waiting to get mine in the mail! You can go and see all of the mobiles made this year at Flickr Mobile Swap 2009 they are all really good and I would be happy with any of them. Last night we spent picking out the one that we think was made for me, which one do you think? (hint my colors are brown, teal and purple) I will of course show you when I get it. Now that that is finished I can move on to bigger and better things well maybe not better. I will post on it tomorrow after I load the pics.

Tuesday was the first day of practice for the 09 soccer season. This year they went coed. We were blessed with the greatest soccer coach and his family last year that we requested that they pick B again this year, we love the way he is with the kids and how much passion he has for soccer and the lord!

Today is the start to something grand.................warmer weather! I can't wait to be able to open the windows and smell the fresh air!
