WHATS HAPPENING FRIDAY

Today was so nice and I enjoyed it so much....We went to Tucson Botanical gardens and to the Butterfly garden so very nice. You would be surprised how much was to see in the gardens. I have some really pretty pictures. I really feel guilty , maybe I shouldn’t but I do. Im here and in the warm and Michele is there in Eureka Springs in the cold and no electric....i got hold of her on her cell phone and I told her to turn her phone off till tomorrow and then turn it back on and I would in the meantime try to see if I  could find out if she could get out of Eureka and drive over to our place...at least she will have elec and water and food to eat.

 

I just looked at all the major and main roads in Taney county and they are all stated as being clear. So I will call my daughter in the morning I hope she will be ok tonight.

 

It got to 71 here today. Beautiful sunny weather. My daughter said it will be the last winter she spends up there and im thinging very  seriously about not being there anymore in the winter. ..most of the time we aren’t there in the winter but it might be for a longer time period ....dont know how that would work money wise?

 

 

SUSIE:::::: im so glad you got to see your beautiful snow, I know from your living room window that view had to be beautiful...

 

 

JANET::::::; I know that by next year my house will be equip.with gas with a big enough gas tank and will have lines run to all the houses and the green house...and there will be some more of the trees cut down around so nothing can fall ...if they do they wont cause any damage.

Im glad that Mr. jon had a good birthday, my birthday is tomorrow, tell him I will be 6 too lol I would settle being 36 yeah that would be a good age to be...

Im so glad that your daughter sent you the e.mail.  about the time you think you cant do anything with them they start singing lol which sets your heart to singing,

 

Sounds like you all had a wonderful time with the sledding with the snowballing etc.

I hope you all didn’t get sick from all of it.

 

I hope all of you will keep Michele in your prayers......

 

 

SUSAN:::::::I hope the elect didn’t go off anymore today or tonight

 Thanks for getting the papers faxed ....i have a receipt says that they got them so you all might check with them tomorrow to see ok

I checked with the highway dept and all of the roads in Taney county are 75 to 95 percent cleared so we will hope that all of this will  be gone soon. What is the temp suppose to be there tomorrow.?  I hope it get warm enough with the sun shining tomorrow that it of itl

melts most

 

im really glad that we got those bad trees cut that could have landed around and on your house. Before next winter we will have a big gas tank with gas lines going to everything or else a good size generator. We aren’t worried about the limbs just that you and all of our roofs are whole and not have holes

Susan we really don’t know how to tell you and Andy thanks enough

 

 

PEGGY::::: oh my gosh  you have really done well with your weight you are looking very good. ..and I love the jewelry....do you sell it  it is very very pretty.

 

 

Im going to go and rub my sore legs with some muscle rub.  I have walked and hiked so much lately that my shins are so sore....

Maybe I will get rid of some of the fat one day lol

 

 

 

LOVE AND HUGS

GOD BLESS

School is back in today so off I go. I am at the high school so it won't be a bad day. They are having homecoming tonight so it will be an up day. I hope everyone gets their power back soon and are able to stay warm. They just said Sunday night there is another chance of snow but not how much. I have seen it now so I am good with not having more. I am now ready for spring. Hopefully the groundhog will not see his shadow.
I hope Karen feels good today and is not too sore. I figure I will need at least a tummy tuck one day but I do not want any pain. Kinda scares me so everyone who has had PS you are  very brave.

Have a safe warm day.

Good morning to all.hope everyone still has power.we still have power at the moment.did not loose it any more since the last time we did.we are thanking god for that.the sunshine came out really pretty yesterday and melted the ice off of the tree's.the sun is shining now.look's soo pretty.supposed to be around 42 today and 54 tommorow.we are ready for that.the weather through wednesday next week said in the 40's a day or two in the 30's and one more day in the 50's.night time 20's to 30's.so the weather is changing around here.hard to believe sunday is the first of feb already.time does fly by when you are having fun.lol.

Morning all.

You sure know how to make a gal feel good.  Thanks so much about the comments on my journey and my jewelry.  I sometimes get so frustrated at the rest of the weight I want to lose that I forget how far I've come.  The pictures really help.  I have another one that I need to get out that I'm pretty sure I'm bigger than my preop shot.  sheesh....

I don't sell my jewelry....I've thought about it but I don't think I'm creative enough.  I pretty much do the same designs just with different stones and beads.  Multistrands and multi colors are my favorite.  The earrings are where I do try to do different designs.  I love making them and I've given a few to my family.  Maybe I'll start making them for my secret pals.....hmmmm.

Today is errand day...I have a hair appt!  Yay....I love getting my hair done....anything to cover the gray (well, it's really white).  Plus it has issues since the thyroid surgery so I have to have the color done by somebody who knows what they are doing.  But I love the pampering.  Then some running around and then DANCING!  I love our dance class!  Tomorrow looks nice so I think we are going to start cleaning out the farm house.  Yuck.  It's the last building of his mom's stuff and we have got to get it done.  Once it's cleaned out, we can empty the storage units and start sorting the stuff for her sale.  Almost 2 years after her death but it will be done this year.  We are planning the last days of April/first days of May.  Have to get it done.  I can't take another year of worrying about it.

Sunday is the annual Superbowl party at our church.  We get together with lots of snacks and watch some of the game and all of the commercials.  I would like the game to be interesting this year.  It has been such a blowout or boring in years past.  Some of the gals bring games and crafts.  Not me, I'm too busy screaming at the game.  I love football, except when the Chiefs play.  Can'****ch them....too stressful and I say bad words.

I hope those of you or your family without power get it soon.  There is nothing worse than not being able to do the things that need to be done.  Or losing the food in the fridge and freezer!  I like to stock up and I would sure hate to lose the meats and things I have stored.  Scary.

Have a great day you all.  Take care of yourselves and enjoy the few days of nicer temps!

Good Morning Missouri...

Peggy I busted out laughing when I read you said watching the Chiefs make you say bad words... that's just too funny! I can see that in my minds eye!

Since I have not been so easy to live with (Paul is saying) this past few weeks ... I have to be real careful... I have caused my dear husband to fall into "choice words" ... too funny... and he is very "mild" of speech so to speak.  At least we laughed about it and he didn't kill me!!! Although he may want to before these nasty ole hormones finally settle.

Went yesterday and picked pecans all day... I succeeded in breaking TWO vises!  The metal bases on one and the handle on the other!  Oh my gosh!  I will be returning them for a refund!  So it was pecans... we got about a gallon picked out the pecan cracker I got is just peachy!  Those walnuts are so so so hard!  Will have to get Paul to set me up his industrial vice for the black walnuts I guess...

Happy Birthday MIMI! I would of loved to go to the Botanical Gardens... If I could have my very best wish this year it would be to go to Victoria Island to the Gardens there... I hear it is simply breath taking!

I sure hope things get back to "normal" for those that have been intruded upon from all this bad weather... Poor Tammy~Ammy... sounds like she suffered much thru this.

The temps are to be 54 tomorrow... Paul says we are going to clean the garage... and boyee does it need it!  Will be a busy day I guess.... I wanted to take a "new" walk with him but will just have to see.

{{{Pooh}}} thank you for the sweet e~card you always make me feel good when it is you I wanted to encourage.  Send me a PM when you need to chat and I will call you...kay? I am praying that things will look up for you and your family!

Janet ~ I miss you and hope what ever the test results are?  it results in a better physical situation for you! I'm so glad you have had some good time with your family and that that sweet Steph is making progress!

Enjoy your time with Renee and Larry on Sunday... go ahead and hug each other for me!!!! and I want it to be a BIG BIG BIG one! 

I just love that pic of you and me at the Christmas party where we are hugging... and I DON'T like my pics but that one captured the moment don't you think?

Susie ~ I'm sure glad you got to enjoy seeing the snow covered ground at least once this year... if I could of I would of come on over there and we would of taken a fly down that hill for sure!  If we hooked together can you imagine how fast we would of been moving!  I would of been GREAT!!!! Would of given a new meaning to wind in your face! ~tee hee

Andy and Susan ~ Big blessing to you both today!

Thinking of Sugar and hoping she can get her puter all fixed up and that she is getting that room all done and pretty like she wants it.

Jeanine ~ Boy it has been good to see you post recently and am praying you are able to get your house all back to better than normal!

NeNe ~ it is the middle of winter!  are you feeling it?  Wouldn't it be nice if I could get you up here and we would do some really neat Spring "project"... fake ourselves out that it's going to be just around the corner! ~ha

Well boy it's gotten late this morning and I have not exercised yet so better get out there and hit the trail and then I need to pack the few Christmas things I got out this year away in the boxes so I can have Paul hand them up to me tomorrow when we clean the garage....

Am going to fry up some hamburger for Paul's tacos and thaw out some BBQ'd chicken quarters and make him some Bacon Ranch Taters for Sunday.... we are not Superbowl folks but will have to feed him anyway... he just keeps coming around like that! ~ha 

I hope and pray you each have a wonderful day!

Bec 

Hello Auntie Jan and My Peeps-
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAN!!!!  Jon wants to know if you wanna come play with him since your both 6!!! LOL.. He was so confused-so I told him you have celebrated your 6th birthday like 50 times now!!! LOL.....poor guy!

Well-Megans OB appt was this morning! Because the baby dropped so drastically and Megan has not been feeling her move very much (sign of getting ready to make their appearance)...she did a small ultrasound in the office to check the amnio fluids and all that-Megan got 8 out of 8-which is good-BUT....DUE to them being so off on her due date-she is now over at the hospital having all her pre-labor tests-the stress test and some lab and stuff like that. They went to get her for the ultrasound and the kids called me and said-Mom, can you get out of your driveway? I started crying and said-Go ahead and have it done-dont wait for Renee and I-and she said-Mom, I just got a picture of her at the dr ofc-and I know she is okay, so we are just going to reschedule the ultra sound for Weds-how would that be?  Ok, I say, lip quivering (just kidding!!!LOL) So Weds, Renee and I, plus Jon and MAYBE Mike-will be there looking at her for the last time from the outside-Aaron was telling me how cute her face picture is that they got this morning-I was like- DUH, I KNOW!!!! I already know what my little gal is going to look like-she has been in my dreams for months now-and I KNOW! I wish I could find someone to draw what I describe-because I really do know what she is going to look like-and I know everyone thinks Im off my rocker-but Im not. I KNOW....I KNOW....and I am telling everyone-so they will know beforehand! I was trying to figure out what the chances are that I could hold her before them????  Any ideas?  email me. LOL... I WILL be THIRD...ONLY after mom and dad.  They better not lolly-gag, they better just hold her, kiss her little forehead and say hi to her and pass her along. Non of this hour long thing! LOL LOL!!!  Can you tell Im ate up?  I am getting my special shirt next week-just to wear for the labor and delivery!  You will see this NEW NANA coming from a mile away-if my smile doesnt blind you....my auro all around me WILL!!!!  I cannot wait, I cannot wait, I cannot wait!  I WILL NOT put the little princess down unless she is hungry-unless some of the other people. Like mom Or dad-want to hold her-but I dont see why they will? Im thinking some valuim in Aarons drink will keep him groggy when he is here.....then he can go to work...not sure how to fight Mike off tho-he is a total baby hog-A HOG I TELL YOU!!! Anyone who has been around Mike when there is a baby around-can tell you-you think Im ate up-its nothing compared to how her Papa is going to be!!!!  Aaron just called-megan is doing the stress test and they have scheduled the ultrasound for 8 am Weds-HAD TO take that appt per dr, so-they said to tell Aunt Renee they were sorry, and they understood if she couldnt come.....oh yeah, Im thinking.....she will be there. LOL....Maybe she will just have to come spend the night Tues????

My doc clld me after 5 last night, was laying down, wasnt feeling real good-this has been going on, off and on for a couple of days now-dont know what the heck....anyway-she said that she reviewed my test results-and not any "significant" changes since last May.  We went over my vitamin D and calcuim and protein intake and supplement amounts and then she said that she is going to call my RX company and find out what monthly med they will cover since I am having so many problems with my medicare rx plan coverage-its such a mess. I was going to go to ss office during the week this week and sit down and speak to them, but was iced/snowed in.  Will do that next week for sure.  Anyway-so that was good news. She did tell me that I need to be careful with activities etc and that I can regain bone strength and slow it down and even stop it. I asked her if there was any way that the supps I already started are the reason I am feeling so neauseated etc lately and she said they could be. We just have to keep an eye on it. I am starting a journal to make sure. Darn it-just my luck!!! She did say that I needed to get with my GYN, which I had already planned on doing......so will get that scheduled and out of the way again. Couldnt go to that appt this week either because of the weather. Gonna have a lot of things to catch up on.

Well, Mike asked me to go on a date tonite and megan and my mom are going to come out and watch the boys. I guess we will have to see how I am feeling. Hope like heck I am feeling better so I can go.  Tomorrow, we have Steph and Jon-os combo party at Chuck E Cheese- I know Steph is too old-but we are going to have a BIG party combo this summer for her graduation and 18th birthday when the pool is open and a friend of ours in a band will come out and play. Have offered to have Tiffs out here as well-will have to see how that all plays out. Then, after cec, we are taking Jonathan shopping-no one knows what to get him-heck, I dont even know what else he wants-its been so hectic here and he has NOT asked for anything except that dinosaur that costs like $300-and that is NOT going to happen-he wont play with that thing long enough! He did ask for a HUGE box, for a fort-so I told Mike that the next huge copier that they get in the office - to keep the box and we will take it to the morton building and make it a huge fort house for him! It will fit in the corner of their room, cuz we are taking the slot car track down, since they dont play it really anymore.  I am still working on Stephs trunk, but told her that it was going to be a little late...so she is getting that, and money so she can get what she wants.  So, after all of that Saturday-we have to get home and get the house all set for the Superbowl party on Sunday. We ended up having a lot more people than we originally anticipated, but its all good-its just that some will have to sit in those folding camping chairs-but at least we have the comfy ones with cup holders-and then I need to find some more tv trays so they can put their food on them.....it should be a good time.  Renee and Larry, I believe will be spending the night Saturday night-and we will be playing our competition Guitar Hero-and so we will just be busy-still trying to figure out our menu-we were thinking like a couple of diff cheese dips-chili-hot dogs-(so can make chili cheese dogs, if wanted)-then fritos (for frito pies) and tortilla chips to dip......then I am making a couple of cheese balls.....so-I am either going to make it that menu OR...just sandwhich stuff and wraps-along with the different dips.  We have some BIG eaters-so...want to make things that will go a little further, but yet, have enough for everyone here.  Renee and I are so easy-lol-wish everyone were that easy, I just HATE food planning anymore-could do without it-but has anyone ever noticed, that food really is always at the center of any family or regular gathering????

I feel like I have missed so much on the boards lately. Im not sure where the heck the time is going-I DO read what I can-but I dont always get to respond to everyone, and I HATE That-I want you guys to know what you mean to me! I love you guys with all my heart-and I am SO THANKFUL for you all-you ARE a blessing to me!

**Auntie Jan-HAPPY BIRTHDAY-I am so glad you liked your ecard-it just fit you to a "T"...all the beautiful flowers-was you!  I am so glad that you and Joe are having fun....IF you DONT HAVE TO be home for any particular reason-than take your time and dont rush back! Trust me! The cold weather is NOT finished with us yet!  So-take your time and dont rush....oh, and I have been to my mailbox and I have not seen ANY postcards.. It must be lost in the mail, huh? Thats all I can figure out. (hint hint)

Maybe you and Joe can go to the Grand Canyon about the time we go-that would be great-but I bet your not going in May or early June when your gardens need tending the most-are you? Im lucky-my stuff is minimal, so Mikes adopted parents will take care of them for me. I love you guys and hope you have a great day!

Oh, I was going to say, you might check into some of those seasonal rental places OR get some pricing on some of those places that let you put your camper or whatever on them for the winter. I have some relatives that live in Northern Minnesota and they celebrate their Christmas and Thanksgiving either when they come home in the spring or before they leave in the fall-anyway, they bought a 5th wheel and they go to Florida every winter. They have a permanent address there and they just hook up there by the ocean and love it! Instead of going on a cruise or whatever-maybe the money can be put in a lot rent or something? If you have someone to help take care of things in Missouri-you and Joe could do that-and you could haul the 5th wheel or little trailer on the back of your truck, and put a little trailer on it with the trike-OR find a place to permanently put a little trailer year round...maybe you could find one of those places that would rent it out in the months that you arent there-and that would pay for the costs when you arent there-and they make sure that the people dont ruin your stuff and all that-just a thought.....

**Susan-I am okay-test results listed above-and I am so anxious about Mackenzie I can hardly stand myself. I bet my feet dont hit the ground for weeks after she enters this world! I just cant wait to see her, to touch her, to count ALL her fingers and toes, to dress her in all the "pretties" we have for her-and just to love her. This seems really weird-but lately, I have been missing my own grandmother more and more-more so than normal-and all I want-is to be the kind of grandma to Mackenzie that my grandma was to me! I had a bond with that woman that would move mountains-she was the bomb, as they say! Unbelievable bond, unbelievable love-so different than other loves-for your hubby, your children, but every bit as strong, but in such a different way-you cant measure it-but all I know is lately, I just tear up thinking of her-and praying to God that I can be that with my little gal! I want to be JUST LIKE my grandma! I WANT Mackenzie to feel like the most special person in the world to me, to feel that safety with me, to feel that there is no one in the world as wonderful as she is to me-thats what my grandma gave me, and the memories and I will NEVER forget that because of her-I had such a wonderful life! WOW...sorry...anyway-the next couple of weeks, I will be on pins and needles and getting ready for my princess! I WILL have Renee post pics as soon as we get them....right there from the room-they have wi-fi....and I will get them on here as soon as I can!

I bet your so excited that your day is coming too, to go back to Columbia? I cannot wait! yay!  You and Andy are always in my thoughts and prayers and I just think the world of both of you!  Love ya.

**Bec-Hope you had a good day with your sis and that the ice is melting and its warming up so you can get back to your routine! I know cabin fever is horrible! LOL.... I love you and THANK YOU for the card-Your such a special person to me, and I cant wait till your feeling better. In my thoughts and prayers constantly-Love ya.

**Peggy-I just love ya! What are you going to do to your hair? I am going to do something with mine in the next couple of weeks-just havent figured it out just yet. I really want a change/change-but not quite sure what it will be. I know I have to get some split ends trimmed. Dont want to loose my length, but would like a style now, and I am going to go ahead and get some highlights. I am going to get a couple of different colors-and my aunt Pat that I havent seen in years and years-we went and saw her a couple of weeks ago-and she owns her own shop-but I thought she retired-well, she started going back in a couple of days a week-because she hated being home doing nothing all the time-she offered-so I am going to take her up on it!

I have my check up in KC in April-I would love to come up early and have lunch or something. At least get my Peggy hug....I feel like we already know each other and I just love ya to peices-your always in my thoughts and prayers! Have fun at your dance class and your party Sunday!!!!

**Cor-How is your grandma? I hope and pray she is well and it was just a fluke!  How are you?  I think your doing great!!! Ok-so tell me-HOW FAR are you from KC? OR are you closer to Columbia?  Want to get with you sometime this summer-or sooner-LOL.....Let me know so we can get together!!! Love you and your in my thoughts and prayers always-and WAY TO GO!! YOUR DOING   GREAT!!!!

**Angie-Oh girl- I LOVE YOUR NEW HAIR AND YOU LOOK HOT!!!!  YOU  LOOK SOOOOO GOOD!!!  I cannot wait to get to hug you in person!  Thanks for being there with Karen-I wish that you guys could all make it down this way!  Or maybe we can all carpool up that way.....  Love you and keep up all the good work-you are kickin butt and taking names!

**Susie-Did you use your snowblower yet? You havent said-but I am curious! LOL....Perfect chance-but not sure if you got as much as we did-we got over 7 inches out here. Our school is still out today-the back roads out in the country are always the last ones to get plowed, in fact, our driveway-which is a road in its own, is still an ice rink! LOL... Hope you have a good day at school-the kids should all be reeling about tonite and homecoming!  Did you get on that sled? I did the other day with the boys and it was great! I did sit on one of the couch cushions, so I didnt hurt my bum-but it was fun and I found myself giggling like a little kid! I hadnt done that since I was like 9 yrs old!  Now Im 41 and out sledding like a kid-but you only live once-and I want to enjoy what I can...the super obese me, couldnt have fit on the sled-much less move after getting on it...couldnt have found the handles to hold on and on and on and on!! LOL... Have a good day!

**Renee-I cant wait to see you guys! We are going to have so much fun and then next week, we get to see the little princess! YAY...She is going to be here soon. Im saying in the next 2-2 1/2 weeks. I cant wait-got to get cracking on getting her area all set up. Thats my major goal for next week. I WILL get it done before she gets here-I have to!  Anyway-sis, you know I love you and I will see ya soon.

**Deb(Pooh)-I DO Have your package here! I DO need to get it sent out-I feel so lousy!!! I hope its worth it when you do get it-considering I have had it here forever! I am so sorry!  How are you doing? Hows Gail? Hows Nikki?  Hope all of you are well, your constantly in my thoughts and prayers and I just cannot wait to see you face to face and get those hugs!  Your just a sister to me-and I love you dearly!!! Take care! Love you!

I have emailed Barbara and havent heard from her. Please pray she is okay.  I got text from Tammy and they were waiting for the Red Cross to help her family that didnt have any water. They had gone and got her g-ma, because Tammy couldnt get to her-so they did and took her to a shelter. Tammy said they do have enough to eat and drink and they are staying warm! She is going to have to have her drains for 4 extra days because she cannot get out to get to Columbia-but other than that, she sounded as good as you can with that many people crammed into a small space with no elec...at least they are warm.  Sheila was having the same issues with the ice and snow-but still had her electricity!  Hope that Sugar gets her computer fixed soon! Miss seeing her here!

Well, I have just rambled and rambled. Thank God I am feeling better. When I woke up this morning, felt like going back to bed I felt soooo sick to my stomach. BAD.. Hasnt been that bad for a long, long time!  Please remember those without power and such in your prayers. Also for Karen and her recovery, for Marilyn and her family in this time of sorrow with the loss of her brother, for Michele and Tammy specifically, that their power gets back on and they have enough food and water to make it until they do.  Please pray for Megan and Mackenzie that they are okay. Megan has been so sick and miserable-and that group B strep is kicking her butt, more so than before.  I could use a prayer too-that these supplements arent whats making me so sick-and if it is-that it will go away as my body gets used to the extras.....thanks so much-I appreciate you guys and love you lots!  Love, Janet

Hello Everyone,
 I hope everyone is doing ok in this nasty weather, I will be so glad when spring gets here. The road trucks finally made it back through yesterday afternoon, and then again today, so hopefully it wont be long before I can make it out on my own. I can't drive on this crap for nothing, I take the shakes and cry like a baby just thinking that I might have to. Thankfully I have friends that know this and respect me for not putting mine or any one else lives in danger so they are pretty good at checking in on me and driving me or picking stuff up for me. I'm very lucky.
 Sounds like I'm going to be an Aunt soon. I so can't wait. I am so lucky that Megan, Aaron, and Janet have asked me to be apart of it all. I told Janet the other day, I can't wait to see Megan hold Mackenzie for the first time (after she gets settled in her room), to me there is no other beautiful moment then that. OMG you can just feel the love and seeing it is so amazing. Ok I got goose-bumps and tears so I better change the subject. As you can tell auntie Renee is a little excited.
 Tiff hasn't had school all week and even though we love each other we both knew it was time for a break. So when we went out for pizza (i went out for salad) with Larry and Fran last night she called Chris and had him meet us and then after dinner she went on to his house for the weekend. We love each other but also know when it's time to break apart and have some of our own time ( a lesson learned the hard way LOL)
 I'm so excited about getting to spend time with Janet and the family this weekend. I love hanging out with them. They are such a blessing to me. I will be getting out the gh and practice some later tonight so Mike don't kick my butt to bad. lol
 
 HEY DID Y'ALL HEAR.........I'M GOING TO BE AN AUNTIE SOON.....WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!

 Jan I hope you have a wonderful birthday, have Joe give you a huge hug for me.

 Bec I will for sure give Janet a big hug for you, shoot I will give her 3 or 4....hows that sound?  You tell Mr. Paul he better treat you like a golden treasure or he's going to have me up there to deal with to. LOL Just Kidding.
 I hope you don't work to hard cleaning today. Love You Sweety

Susan I hope you and Andy are staying warm and that you don't have anymore power problems. We got lucky and missed out on losing ours this time. My next appointment is April 10 at 9:30. That would be cool to see you guys. I think we might be stopping in to see Bec if all goes as planned.

Janet WooooHoooo!!!! Your going to be a NANA soon, and I'm going to be an AUNTIE soon. I've redone my mommy dance into an Auntie dance just for that sweet angel...... I can't wait to do it for her when she gets here. LOL I'm going to get the car all gassed up and ready to go so that will be one last thing to worry about.
 Girl you know I got your back I'm working on a game plan now for you to hold Kenzie first OK maybe second, Meg should get to hold her first since she's doing all the work (dang it), but Aaron is fair game. LOL I figure I can either body slam him and knock him out or do it the easy way and bring Granny Franny with her shovel. LMAO Just let me know which you think would work best. LOL


 I hope EVERYONE has a wonderful BLESSED day.

Love and Hugs
