Evening ladies...Another busy day here. Whew, I don't know when I will get to take a break.
I still have a few things to put away from the van and my closet is a mess now that I brought so many things from Vegas. Two houses into one...doesn't go! Thank goodness we didn't bring any of the big furniture home: just a dinette table, 6 chairs, a sofa table, mirror and 2 lawn chairs. All the rest was clothes, towels, bedding and kitchen goods. (and tons of Christmas stuff: wrap and decorations.) Yikes!
Had to take Mom to the dr. today, then for an ultrasound and they sent her to another dr. So, we were gone most all day. She has to go to a surgeon in 2 weeks. Has a pinched nerve and compressed fracture in her back. No wonder she has been in such pain.
Came home and grilled chicken for dinner with corn on the cob and cauliflower. Haven't made it to the grocery store since being home, but luckily had things on hand. I just can't get into the swing of things!
Tomorrow we need to go see family, so there is another day with not getting the house in order. I don't do well with things in chaos. Would be cleaning right now if the rest of the household wasn't asleep.
Mindee- Your kids sound like they are very normal and full of energy. I didn't have 3 so close together, so feel for you.
(When my son was born the girls were 14 and 11.)
Tammy- *whine* I wanna go to the beach.... I just don't want to drive that far right now. LOL If you are like me you won't get much sleep the night before a trip. Have a ball and try to check in. (way to go on the loss by the way) YAY Tammy!
Jane- I have been slowly buying up things for scapbooking, so plan to start on one as soon as I get things caught up here. I also like to sew, and should make my curtains. I have only ever made simple bedroom ones for the girls years ago. And if I remember right I made them from a bedsheet because there were no curtains to match their bedding. I am anxious to see pictures of Tammy's project, how about you?
Marti- I don't know if you had my e-mail, but I will PM it to you now. I might be changing things around on my computer soon. Think I will get cable modem and lose this dial up. That is the one thing I told DH I wanted if we sold the winter home. I had kept this dial up just because it was also usable in Vegas at no extra charge.
Cristina- Hey, sounds like you have been extra busy with the fence building. You have a pretty large yard don't you? We down sized the yard when we moved here as DH was so tired of yard work. Now he walks with the push mower and is done in less than an hour. He is even thinking of selling the lawn tractor....but I say keep it for snow removal. Ugh..snow! (don't tell Jane I said that!) Hope you enjoyed the movie...I wouldn't, but that is just my personal opinion. Don't like MM at all even though I think a few of his points are valid. But then, I don't have the same movie tastes as Pink Jane either.
Susan- Hi lady...good to see you here.
Tina- Wow...way to go! Love the picture.
Pink Jane- I am also a creature of habit. When DH worked if he had a day off or worked long hours it threw everything off for me. And boy, did the kids know how to throw a monkey wrench in my plans at times. I like to know what I am doing and when. (preferably days in advance) I vaguely remember being very spontaneous and carefree before kids arrived.
Dee-
Nice to have you here and I hope to talk to you often.
Hi all...thinking of every Jaded Lady and wishing you all a wonderful week-end.
