WELCOME TO THURSDAY YA'LL!!!

Good am,

How are ya'll doing? GREAT I hope! How was your Wednesday? Ours was good. It constantly rained which is wonderful as we really need it to saturate the air and ground. We've got all the windows open and it makes for good sleeping weather. I managed to get some chores done as well as some business taken care of. I was very, very jam packed with some upcoming plans that are getting underway and it feels good to see our decisions come together beautifully. I've definitely got elbow grease invested into all of this so I'm stoked to see where things go. :) In the pm, I made dinner and hung out with the buggas and talked with a friend about life and all its simplicities and complexities. Off to bed around 10ish and managed to sleep pretty decent.

What's on your books for your Thursday? Us are chores, errands, working on some things and then this pm we meet K's teacher and that's exciting! Otherwise, I'm just looking towards embracing this beautiful day I've been blessed to wake into. Enjoy your Thursday!

Hugs....

Good morning, beautiful!  Wednesday was pretty good in most ways and I, too, am excited to see all of this beautiful rain.  We need it so desperatly and it is coming at a nice rate so we can actually have it saturate the ground.  I have opened all of the windows, too and am loving the smell and sounds of nature all around me.  I took Kara to school last night to meet her new homeroom teacher and pay the fees.  $217.00 later we left and made a run to Starbucks for some mom and daughter time.  I got home and spoke to my sister at the hospital and tried to have a convo with my mom.  That didn't go so well, unfortunately, so I leaned on a really good friend and got some answers to some really hard questions.  I spent the remainder of the evening with Steve and doinf some laundry.

On the books for today is a visit to the hospital (she is STILL in labor, not progressing very quickly!) and more laundry.  I am going to cook a nice dinner and try and relax some.  I am hoping to get some cleaning done, too so that I can have this weekend for whatever.  I know Friday I have to take Kara to get the last of her clothes and I am sure she will just have to have yet another pair of shoes (she is her mama's girl on that part) and get a few last minute supplies but as of now I have no specific plans.  I am hoping we can squeeze a day or two at Busch Gardens and maybe the beach if the weather is good.  I skipped my run again today.  With the moisture in the air my knee is really bothering me.  I will do some on the elipitical at some point or maybe just take the day off.

Love you much and thanks for everything!

Morning Beautiful!  So glad that your day was good.  I know that accomplishing things on our lists always feels great.  Well I did not have the greatest of days but I survived.  Had some issues with my blood sugars yesterday  (thinking it is just my body recovering from vacation eating   ) and ended up going home early cause I felt yucky.  Pretty much just relaxed all evening and made sure to eat correctly.  Went to bed early.  Today is a beautfiul new day.  We are getting the rain here today and like the rest, we definitely need it.  I believe I am ready for my favorite wonderful fall weather.  On the books for today is work, off to get the girlie**** back to school night for the oldest & hear all about their week at school.  Have a great one!  Love you much!

p.s. where is your beautiful, smiling face?

Good morning ladies! Yesterday was interesting. One of my best friends talked me into going out. I haven't gone out with a friend in awhile. We went to Applebees and talked. It helped me so much. I ate a couple bites of  mashed potatoes.  The waitress just made laugh because I know in her head she was thinking "what the hell is the fat lady only eating some mashed potatoes" She kept asking if the food was ok. I know she was wondering why I wasn't eating. I did not feel like I needed to explain it to her. I just told her it was wonderful and she looked even more confused. lol.
On the books for today... I have my sons 1st grade orientation and then we are off to Walmart to finish school shopping. I already got all his clothes and shoes now just need a few supplies. Then I come back home for the at home health nurse to come and check me out. I am having some issues with the feeding tube and waiting for response from Jeanine. My stomach is swallowen and sore and I gained 3.5 pounds overnight. I am just hoping everything is ok with that. I am going to wait to do feedings till I here back from her. For now I am just going to sit and enjoy the sound of the rain. My son is still asleep!!! Thank God for the rain, because mommy needed a break. lol. Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Good morning Kat! Today is a blah day. Even though we need the rain, it is defnitely making me lazy and have me wanting to nap. And the rain is definitely ruining my plans for our weekend, lol. Blah!

Today! I have my financial aid appointment for school. As far as they know, everything is approved, I just have to sign the papers. I'm so excited about this venture. I think it will do loads of wonders for my mental state & emotional state, lol. I also have to go to Cameron's school. We are finding out who his teacher is and paying school dues for what is called "free public education"! I may go to the gym today since there's no way we can do any outside activity.

I hope you have an awesome Thursday. Take it easy and take care of yourself & the buggas!!!

Hi Friends,
  Vacationing with family in Buffalo, NY. The weather is cool and comfortable. Being with family is wonderful. Thoughts of moving back next Spring, is something that I have been pondering. After knee surgery, I will definately look in to the possibility of moving back. 
  Being with family is wonderful! Searching for a job up here will be the challenge. With prayers and placing this decision in God's hands is all that I can do.
  Peace to all. Cindy

glad you are having a nice vacation!  have a safe trip back.  :)

Hi Lauren, Thank you! Love your new pic! Cindy
