hello all

I am not doing anything much today just babysitting. I am so glad that I do not have to work outside the home right now. It is so stressful on the kids. The little boy that I keep does ok if his mom drops him off, but when his dad does, its really heart breaking. He hangs on for dear life, crying his little eyes out. It is really sad, and his poor ol daddy is tore all to pieces when he leaves. It usually only lasts about 20 mins or so, but it is still sad. I am feeling down in the dumps today. I think it is because of Draven still, I am just so worried about him. I am also really tired today, I stay that way a lot lately and I just want to sleep. One of Kirk's friends is coming home with him tonight. He is all excited about that. So how is the weather where you guys are? It is cold and rainy here. It has been that way all week long. Maybe that is another reason why I feel down in the dumps today. Who knows? I just know that I am sooo ready for some sun shine. It is supposed to be back up in the 80s by next Thursday. That we will be good because we are going to a fossil museum and dig some bones. Then Friday we are going to the pool for a private pool party that the school is having for the fourth grade! That should be fun!

Oh did you guys see the news today? New Kids on the Block have gotten back together. That's fine, except when I watched the show I was not impressed at all. Their singing is not what it used to be. Also they need a new name, those guys are older than me. New kids on the block???? Yeah they need a new name.

K enough rambling I will go visit for a while now and maybe look for a publisher for my children's book wish me luck!!

Howdy all

Where to start, hmm lets see, I have started baby sitting now. I keep a two year old all day and a 6 yr old after school, three or four days a week. I dont know if you all knew or not that the house that we live in was my grandparents, my grandfather built it. It belonged to mom and dad. We have talked them into letting us pay the payments and we are now buying the house. I am so excited!! Our rooms are coming along great! We now have two rooms fully equipped right now with insulation and partially sheet rocked. One room will be a walkin closet, the other will be my laundry room. We can't wait until they are done!



I believe that I promised you guys some pictures from our trip. The first thing that I want to show you is our cabins. Yes it is plural. We started out in one called wooded haven. It was a lovely little cabin.
It was a two bedroom with a sleeper sofa. My husband, myself, our three kids, and my mother-in-law and sister-in-law all went.

(This one is my mother in laws.)
It was a little cramped but doable. We only stayed there one night and that was because when we went out for supper, and came back, my mother in law got stuck in the drive way and had to walk the rest of the way up. She has a bad hip and a bad back.

When she caught her breathe from the long walk, she called the office and we were told to come to the office in the morning for another cabin. The second one we got was immaculate. Three stories, three bedrooms, an extra bed out in the loft, two sleeper sofas, a game room, and a hot tub!! It was gorgeous!

This was our room and our bathroom. The bathroom has a Jacuzzi, notice the window, as I was taking my long baths, eagles would fly by our window.

I also want to show you a funny picture of me. I had ate shrimp the night before and I am allergic. I am very swollen, but I can't help it I just love the stuff and I waited to long to get the allergy meds in me.
