TWENTY!
AH HA HA!
What a week! I have had so much going on I haven't stopped by my blog to really catch up! Mostly during the week its a whole lot of same old same old type stuff. School is going well for both kids now, and my days tend to fly by with piddling around the house and around town. I have been working out and trying to get some more weight off now that I have more time for myself, and thats going to intensify over the next week and through the rest of the year. Brian was off last Thursday and that was so nice. Me and him had a whole day together to go look at stuff and do stuff. We started the day dropping the kids off then heading to the pool, after that we went to Jasper to the Bargain Barn to check it out and I got some great ideas for Christmas too. Then we went out to lunch and poked around a few stores and pawn shops looking to see what was in them. Then we got the kids and the afternoon, as always, was a blur. Sadly he had to work on Saturday, but I took the kids to Lowe's to do the building shop and then we went to my moms house and then we went to a few garage sales. After that we went to Target and lunch at TacoBell, and then to my friends Doug and Amy's son's birthday party at Mountasia. It was super hot outside but my mom and the kids wanted to ride the bumper boats, so they did. Then we went inside and played some skiball and other games. Laci hit 100 tickets on a snake game that made us all squeal in amazement for her! It was like one of those impossible shots that she nailed by accident. It was funny as hell! After we got the tickets cashed in, we took my mom home and hit the thrift store. I was lucky and scored a dresser for 11.00 there that is perfect for what we needed. Then surprisingly, my mom met us in the store and helped us get the dresser in the car. After saying goodbye again, we came home, exhausted, and ready for bed!
Sunday we were all up and ready to go early. Even though money is tight this week, we went to our traditional pay week breakfast. We chose McDonalds so the kids could play in the big empty play area while me and Brian worked on a game plan for some things coming up, like our trip, and groceries, ect....
After breakfast we headed to home depot, and then home. We spent the whole day working in the yard and garage. And by the end of the day we were sweaty, filthy, and tired....but the fall garden is 90% finished now and the garage is gorgeous and the chalkboard wall finished (minus the border)! Soon it was time for dinner and bathtime and bedtime.
Monday I got up and got everyone on their way. Then I hit the gym and pool with Tiffany. The rest of the day as usual was a blur that ended at the dentist with the kids. Christopher got 3 fillings done and he left not even knowing what happened! Score! They did great and so did he. He had laughing gas for the first time and had me cracking up on the way home. He said it felt like his legs were melting into his body, and then his head got busy and his body got dizzy and then the women back there started talking in Spanish...which they weren't, lol...and he said that he kept saying he can't understand them with their masks on....what a silly boy! When I told him I was the one who told them to give him the gas, (as he put it the freaky gas), he scolded me telling me it wasn't nice that I played that trick on him! LOL!!!
Oh well, today is another beautiful day, hot as hell in the afternoons, but quite nice in the shade and cooler and more breathable in the mornings and evenings. I am so glad that I can taste fall in the air now...it can't get here soon enough for me!
Today I have a doc appointment then a ton of cleaning to do. I also need to get an ankle brace so I can start walking the track on Tuesdays and Thursdays after the gym on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Hope everyone has had a great week! I'm off!
