Good Morning!  Hope you all had a great day yesterday.  Mine was pretty good.  We finally got the fence completely painted so now I can have my house warming party.  I am soooo excited to show off my new home.  Did way too much yesterday on my holiday off so tonight I plan to veg out with my hubby and enjoy some alone time.  I can't wait.  Have a great one.

Well, here's to the beginning of a new week!  I know I'm ready to start all over again.  Last week is kind of a big blur to us.  We are both emotionally exhausted.  Not only grandpa passing for me but a pretty big shake up at church that hopefully mostly ended at our meeting last night.  I'm ready to get back into the swing of things.   I am a little worried about having had training for work then had a week off so probably don't remember much of it but I suppose with time it'll come back to me.  I do have a meeting with my supervisor this afternoon so we'll talk about it.  Today we have nothing other than work planned.   DH got some duck from a friend at church yesterday that he got when he was out hunting so I'll be cooking that for him tonight.   I'm also planning on making a big pot of chili. 

Jamie, winter ha**** for us!!   We woke up Sat morning to snow on the ground ahhhhhhhhhhh.  It's gone right now but it was there.   Roads were terrible.   Let me tell you standing out at that cemetery was not fun.   BRRRRRRRRRRR   I sure hope you're feeling better....never feel bad if you come here to vent your frustrations etc....   I know I missed you but totally understand as well.

Court, hope you had a very fun weekend but also got some relaxing in as well.   I'm hoping for next weekend LOL. 

I can't believe I never posted at all yesterday.   I had a rough day not feeling so well so just lounged around.   We did go out to Sadie's 3 yr check up in the morning and did a bit of shopping for clothes for the funeral tomorrow.   Sadie is 34.4 lbs and almost 38 inches tall now.   Dr says she looks great...and is right on track.   This evening is the visitation and tomorrow is the funeral.   It'll be a tough couple of days.   We've both been off work since Tuesday and had a lot of time together.   We might take some time off on Monday too if the MN Twins are still in the playoffs.   My Dr said they aren't using their tickets and we could probably get them from her if we want to go so we might just take a day to go and have some fun.   Hubby is doing well with his grandpa passing but I'm sure the next 2 days will be the hardest.  Trying to explain it to Sadie a bit has been a challenge.   She knows who grandpa Ernie is but we're just not sure how much of it she understands.   She's coming with tonight and then tomorrow grandpa is going to come take her if we want while we go to the funeral.  Not much else on our agenda for the weekend...hoping to get some rest on Sunday.  

Sounds like you are going to be very busy, Court!   Enjoy that football game...sounds like a lot of fun.    Jamie...I hope everything is ok and you are just busy and not able to post.

Have a great weekend!

Morning!  How are you?  A bit moody here.  Definitely needing some quiet time & me time.  Perhpas I will lock myself in the bedroom tonight with a book.  Not much really going on.  I did find out that I finally got my upgrade & raise at work.  I am pretty excited about that.  We have the girlies tonight so I sure the evening will be interesting to say the least.  Hope you guys have a great one!

It's a sad Wed at our house.   About 6am the phone rang.   It was my mother in law saying grandpa passed away at 5 am.   We will miss him something terrible but we're also very much at peace with his passing.   He's in such a better place now and is back with grandma.  We both shed a few tears but it's just part of life.   We both will be off work for the rest of the week.   We did get to sit with him for most of the day yesterday.   It was so hard to see him like that.   He did however respond quite a bit to Sadie...she was singing to him and he sat up and looked at her and said yeah!   So sweet to see that he knew she was there.  She kept saying hi to him and telling him she loved him.  It's strange she seems like she maybe understands a bit of what was going on.  Not sure if she'll understand anything today when we tell her he's gone but that's ok.   She gave him lots of joy.  I have a dr appt at 9:40 and then I'm sure we'll be heading up to spend some time with family. 

I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!
