Tuesday is a rollin'

Good Morning Friends! Hope your Tuesday is off to a fantastic start. I have survived 3 whole days of single parenting without any major incidents. I did however spend three hours in my car yesterday morning doing drop offs and ortho appointments....but no big snaffu's. No one got left at school. They got in three meals. They were relatively clean, and I believe everyone brushed their teeth. I would not swear to that one though. VICTORY!!

Today is off to a good start. Everyone is at school. I have managed to have coffee, and brush my teeth. Showering is on the schedule. I have a ton of work to do too. Oh, and I decided to dye my hair auburn. I don't know why. I just get an itch like this every now and then to do something different. I have been Platinum blonde (most of my life) but consistently for the last 4 years, and I am bored. The color is on my head as we speak, so there is no turning back. Wish me luck.

December is rolling. I have gotten a good deal of my shopping done, hurray! I still haven't taken pics for our holiday card. That task always overwhelms me. How do I get all five boys, in the same place, clean, dressed nice, and sitting still?????? There is no way I can get the whole family this year. Last year I resorted to a montage, and that might be what I do this year. We shall see. I never sent new address cards to everyone, so I will probably miss out on my favorite part, getting all of those cards! I love seeing how the kids all grow from year to year. If you want to send us a card, but don't have our address, message me on facebook or email me please!

That is it for now. Happy Tuesday!

Networking can be expensive!

I went to a cool women's networking meeting the other night. It was with an organization called Heartlink . It was at some one's house. An awesome dinner was served. Tables set, lovely hospitality, and about 20 very interesting women were there. We each got 3 minutes to introduce ourselves and tell a bit about our business's. Most of the women knew each other already. Many of the women present had business's that sell through direct marketing. Most of the big ones were represented, and a few new ones I had never heard of but found interesting. There were also women with other business's like insurance, legal services, printing, etc... It is great to meet like minded people, and I can definitely see the benefits of attending regularly. The bad part however, is it leaves you wanting to go shopping! All of a sudden, I MUST have the new mango cutter from Pampered Chef, and I am yearning to freshen up my candles, and I NEED a hole new wardrobe from CABi . ...

The Sky is Blue

I want to thank all of you who lift my family up in prayer. I thank all of you who give us encouragement. I try really hard to see the cup 1/2 full, and most days I do. I was feeling a little down last night, but today is a new day. Blue skies remind me of how much I am loved. Have an awesome day friends. And.....on a side note.... Go Viewpoint Patriots!!! We are in the playoffs! Wooo Hoooooo!

I believe

I believe....... That marriage is a lifetime gig That it is up to us to take care of those in need, through families, churches, relationships, etc... That family is serious business, parenthood is a gift, a treasure, something to take dead dog serious. That I have a right, and a responsibility to protect my family and those who can't protect themselves, from would be criminals, and anyone else who is attempting to infringe on our rights as stated in our constitution. I believe that without faith in God, and a conscious decision to submit to him, people are lost in a pool of ever changing self centered nonsense, and are subject to what ever the politically correct, hip, educated mantra of the year is. Stuff is awesome, shiny cars, flashy jewels, exotic vacations, are all delightful--- for a little while--then when the shiny wears off, and the financial impact starts hurting--- the result is damage to the most important thing--- family, and submission to God. I bel...
