Thanksgiving Dinner

Hey all.. Hope you all had a wonderful thanksgiving.. I know we did and we had fun while were there at my MILs house.. It was one of the best days.. I look forward to going there each time we go.. I didnt take any photo's this trip. But I do have some more photo's from the weekend its self but that is another post later on this week if I get a chance to post it..

Anyway we had the usual. Turkey, mashed pots, gravy, cranberries, stuffing and home made pies this year. I only brought the apple pie we bought because I cant stand pumpkin.. I could have had some cherry but I like apple better.. Wonder what apple and cherry pie mixed together in one would taste like...lol.. Ok me and my weird taste buds going crazy again..

Of course Jeff was the butt of our jokes thursday.. Those of you who know him personally know he is very jumpy.. and He hates stuffed animals.. Well you can imagine what we did to poor Jeffrey..I mean yes we had Shari's 18 year old son with us this year but I see him a kid yet so he doesnt really count and POOR JEFFREY was out numbered by 3 WOMEN!!!!! What a concept huh??LOL!!

Well anyway he was ready to go home by time we got done with him on Thursday evening.. We had him so jumpy I am suprised he was able to drive the car home.. but I wasnt going to drive us in the dark.I hate driving on the highway anyway. I will drive in town or just hope over 172 here in Green bay to get to the other side of town but I dont like long distance highway driving.. No thank you..

I stuck my foot in my mouth thursday as well. Victor had said something about spitting or at least I thought he had and forgot how old his girlfriend was and who I was with. I piped up and said what did you expect her to swallow..LOL.. Yikes.. she is only 17 years old.. I havent seen Vic get red in his life until then and my MIL even got embarrassed and I apologize for that statement if you are reading this mom..

I had to tell them i put my foot in my mouth at least once..

I made a hat over the weekend that is pink and heather grey with curly q's on top of it.. I will post it when I do my next post. I have been working on some new scrunchies for my shop also.. Hopefully they will sell. I could use a sale right now but not asking any of you to buy..Just saying I could use one.. Well I suppose i need to go find some clothes. I am still in my jammies and I have to work tonight. So I am off to get dressed and then finish a couple more scrunchies before work hopefully. I have to get my lunch together yet. jeff has this week off for vacation.. Not doing much since I sleep all day long.. talk soon.. Hugs..

Things to be Thankful For....

Tis the season to be thankful.. Well I have to admit I am thankful for a lot of things this year.. Well for starters I have my family. We have our home and our mortgage is almost caught up.. We both have jobs.. That is the biggest part in our lives right now to be thankful for.. Its still rough out there in this economy.. Walmart is hiring and I have applied several times over the last few years but they refuse to call me for some reason so screw them.. I am sick of places like that..

I am thankful to have a job I like except for working 3rd shift.. I get used to sleeping during the day Sunday through Thrusday and then have to adjust my sleeping schedule back to sleeping at night Friday and Saturday..lol..

I am thankful for having my parents in my life even though we dont see them as often as I would like.. I wish we lived closer but at least we have the internet and phone lines..

I am thankful to have my friends here and in real life. I mean you all are virtual and then those I have met in real life are really cool people.. I love each and everyone of you in many ways.. You all are very unique and I love reading your blogs..

I am thankful to have my etsy shop even though I havent made as much money with it as I had hoped to make even though its just a hobby..I am thankful to be able to crochet and make things I love to do..

Ok I know this post isnt to long but I cut my finger at work last night on some plastic and my middle finger hurts when I hit the keys so I am going to leave this for now.. but this is what I have for this year and I Hope you all have something very special to be thankful for also. I know I do and lots more but this is what i have for now.

Again Happy Thanksgiving and if you are traveling tomorrow or this weekend be safe and drive safely.. Have plenty of turkey..

Things in Life

Here is what has been going on since my last post.. Ihave been working or sleeping and trying to spend more time with my girls. I have been trying to get some house work done but just havent had the energy.. I have put sleeping bags to make our bedroom black where I can sleep during the day with out waking up. I hated when it was light in our bedroom. I was always awake and no sleep really.. Do you know how hard it is to sleep during the day?? I do and its impossible unless its dark in the bed room.. So I took our sleeping bags until I can get some heavier curtains and put them up on the windows over the curtain rods.. I have been sleeping much deeper and better since I put the sleeping bags up.. I am not as tired as I was before. Eight hours is doing me better than 9 or 10 hours of sleep was..

I have been trying to get Jeff to help me with the front closet but hes been working so hard lately again. I think I will tackle it here my self shortly and suprise him when he comes home. He may be mad at me because I mentioned something about it before he left for work this morning..

He has taken off the last week of November for a vacation.. I took one night off to spend a whole weekend with him where he doesnt watch me sleep all week long. I think we are going to have to get him some milk where he can get up and get his own breakfast while I sleep.. Or i make something for him before I go to bed.. And then he will have to deal with lunch with the girls.. And then I will make some dinner when I wake up..

I just listed 15 books on FB that I have read that have stuck in my mind. I am not going to relist them here right now.. Maybe sometime I will do a list again..

Snowie has been spending alot of time with me lately too. She is most content when I am sitting in the livingroom on the couch crocheting.. She has been clinging lately and I dont mind one bit.. I wish she would have been more that way when we first brought her home.. I think its because now she can sleep with me and not have to be shut out of bedroom during the day. Jeff still wont let her sleep with us and she sleeps with the girls at night on weekends but she enjoys during the week when the bedroom door is open to her..

I may have become a big child but I have found some footed jammies. I bought a pair from Big Feet PJ Company and one pair from Walmart.. I also want some new crochet hook but they are 60 dollars.. they light up in the dark.. They are really cool and come in the sizes I use.. You can buy them one at a time but its more expensive that way.. You save money when you buy the package of 9 in sitting..

Update on my mom.. She is a diabetic and they had taken one med away and given her a new one and it was too strong. they had to lower the dosage and she is fine now. I havent heard anything from her since last Friday when I took the girls out for Lunch. they had one of there first book it badges.

I stubbed my toes this morning before it got light out and of course the bedroom was pitch black and I stubbed my toes on this movie thing we got from a friend. You need special Cd's to play in it. Its not a regular DVD player.. anyway I am off to find something for breakfast and then I am off to get the girls to help me with somethings before they go play.. then Jeff wont have to work so hard when he comes home..

Happy Thanksgiving my friends if I dont post again before then..

Suprise Post

Here is a suprise post.. We went to Mosinee WI on Saturday to meet up with one of Jeff's new friends and us girls went swimming.. I wish I would have gotten a photo of this but Bri decided she was going to put her arms out straight and just flop into the water and then stand up and ask me if I got that on Camera..LOL. My lil Sheet... but we had fun otherwise.

We went out for supper next door to the motel and ate a place called the Stage Stop. Wish I would have taken photo's of the inside of the restaraunt.. It was pretty cool.. Stuff animals and some pretty neat indian things around the place..

Jeff and his friend spent time in the motel room talking while us girls gave them sometime to get to know eachother better and we went swimming. Well the girls went swimming this time around. I just wasnt into the pool. I sat in the whirl pool for a while but sat where if they needed me I could get to them.









My tuckered out little girls from all that swimming.. They were in the pool for like 3 hours after dinner Saturday.. Yikes..



This was the suprise Post..lol.. I have no idea what we are doing this weekend. I think we are staying home and I have some stuff I want brought down stairs and put away this weekend. I have a closet by our front door that I want cleaned out for our winter stuff. the girls cant get to there jackets with the boxes and stuff sitting there.. It sucks but we will move them this weekend. then we are going to clean out the garage again too I think. a cleaning weekend where we can get the car back in the garage this winter. I heard we are suppose to get snow this weekend but not sure if the source I heard it from is reliable.. He likes to pull my chain alot..

Ruth is back here in the States again for a Visit but not staying with us.. She has another host this time around and hope she has a great stay. She is going to get ahold of me when she has a free moment. I cant wait to see her again. We have patched things up and come to an understanding on when we hosted her at the house. It was very difficult to see things her way and vice versa.. Never doing something like that before it was a great opportunity.I am glad we tried.

My mom ended up in the hospital yesterday.. she woke up and couldnt talk or move and my dad thought she had, had a stroke. So he had to call an ambulance.. I am not ready to lose my mom yet. According to the drs it was one of her meds that made her blood sugar go to low. it was too strong of a dosage and everytime they got it back up it would just fall back down again so they kept her in the hospital last night..

Anyway that is whats going on here.. Hope you enjoy your weekend as mine is going to be cleaning and getting ready for winter here.. I am so not ready yet for winter.. Happy weekend and I will be back Monday hopefully with something more to say..lol...

SunRise November 8th,2010

A beautiful sunrise before I came home yesterday morning. the first photo was taken through the front windsheild of the car and when the flash went off it bounced back at me.lol. so that one doesnt show how beautiful it was when it first started.. I have another post but I dont have time for it.. I have to get my thoughts straight on it.. Anyway enjoy this post for now.. Hope you all have a great week.. N..

The Eclipsed Heart By Kimberly Thomas

Ok Ok here is a good book. Not just because she is my sister either.. Well my adopted sister since her dad adopted me when I was like 3 or so. I have lost track after all these years.. but its a good book..

Young girl is being stocked by a man and teenage boy is asked to protect her more than once but he tries with all his heart and falls in love with her..

Rachel is a young teenage student in the process of graduating and she is very poor. She works for a diner and pays the rent while her mother sits at home and thinks she is going to die sometime soon.. Well her mother has been doign this for a few years now. Rachel wears Goodwill clothing and kids pick on her.. I know the feeling..(I have been there and done that)..

I dont know how to explain this book very well. I am having a harder time doing a book review on this book for some reason. Maybe because its too close to home for me in my personnal life than not. I am not sure why.

Except i wasnt being followed to be hurt by a man and I didnt fall for prince charming trying to protect me either. I love Jeff but he wasnt trying to protect me like Tom was Rachel in the book..

This is Kim's first book and she has a sequel coming out sometime.. I cant wait to find out what happens to Rachel and Tom and the bad guy.. I suggest if I have captured your attention with the book please read it.. I havent had my copy signed yet but will sometime. I messaged her on FB this morning and told her I enjoyed the book. I know I didnt grow up with her but she is my sister and I want to support her anyway I can.

I guess she got lots of hits with this book. Amazon kept running out of the book. Not sure how well Barnes and Noble did really..

Now I am reading what SME suggested on FB a while back. I think its hard reading but I dont read all that much really so I am taking my time understanding it all. Its called Bloody Falls of the Coppermine by McKay Jenkins.

Something to do with the first Eskimo murders in 1913. I am in like chapter 3 and just taking my time with it.. Interesting book so far.. I only paid a 1.99 for it and 3.99 for shipping because the book wasnt here at our local Barnes and Noble.. but it was well worth the money I paid for it. I suppose I could have went to the Library also but with something like this I like having in my home.

Kora is reading Black Beauty and then off to read Mark Twains Huckle Berry Fin I believe its called. i dont have it right in front of me. I have her reading summerizing each chapter this year where I know she is reading the book.. Sometimes she start at the beginning and then reads the end and then goes back and reads the middle.. So I want to make sure she is reading the book from cover to cover..LOL..

I know I have been absent and I have gotten a little more help at home. Jeff has been helping me alot this last week but I still dont seem to have enough time in the day for everything and everyone I want to see.. I want to spend time on here and Etsy and do my crocheting and spend time with my family. Its really hard. I try to cram all this in on Weeekend and then I get cranky because nothing gets done. I dont see jeff but maybe 2 or 3 hours right now during the week. Weekend are a little easier but not much. I have so much to get caught up on, on weekends that I am always working.. so we have gotten where i do one load of laundry at night and he brings up the bin i fold and put that load away and the following night the same thing..

things will ease up after his hours go down a bit in January but right now its tough. Bri is reading welll herself.. She has found some Dick and Jane books she likes.. I bought them from Barnes and Noble and she has taken to them like ducks take to water.. lol. Wish I would have found them earlier though for Kora also. But you know you never think when you have your oldest sometimes.. Kora is reading for fun the old Ramona Quimby books. I loved those books as a child.. I loved to read and still do but I also love to crochet. I have so many interests lately its hard tok keep up with them all..

Anyway I need to go do some things like fold my laundry so I can go get Jeff here shortly. I will be around to make rounds tomorrow sometime. Sorry I have been absent and sorry for the rant on my book review..

Havent been around much lately

Hiya there blog buddies. I havent been around much lately and I am terribly sorry. No stories of what we have done today or this weekend or what nots.. We havent done much with me working 3rd shift and Jeff working his tail end off either. but we have been doing things just not outside. It was really windy here for like four days straight and its just starting to calm down enough to maybe do something tomorrow after jeff comes home from work..

I am still up because I have house work to do and its easier to do it when I dont have a little angel saying mommy i am hungry or can we go some place. I blew up at them both yesterday technically now..lol.. they asked if we could go to the park and I was in a pissy mood anyway and not getting any help from them. there chore is to keep the livingroom toy free and there papers off the floor and so forth and I finally blew up at them. they ask if we can go places but I get no help and then they complain because mom always has housework.. Finally yesterday I told them IF I DONT GET SOME HELP we arent doing a damned thing anymore. Well that got them motivated. Both bedrooms got cleaned and the livingroom. Still didnt have time for the park yesterday but at least it got cleaned..they got out of school work for helping me today. They have to do school work today though before Jeff comes home at noon.

It feels weird talking in todays and yesterdays after midnight yet for me..lol.. I am tired but have some mopping I want to finish and I should really go finish that. I have no new photo's to add to my blog tonight. Wish I did. Maybe tomorrow or Sunday sometime.. Lets see how things go this weekend.. I hope all are well. I havent been doing much not even crocheting. I have worked a bit on my green,red and black afghan with the Z in the middle but not much else. Well anyway I have to get going. Just thought I would let you all know I am still here but barely.. Hugs N

One week ago...My dad turned 57...

Hi there.. We went to my dads house one week ago tomorrow.. I havent felt like posting much and I posted some of my MILS stuff but didnt get much of a response..LOL.. OK OK.. Maybe trying to push it here.. She does some awsome work.. I am going to list some more stuff here shortly. On my etsy site.. anyway I have some photo's and some great stories to tell..

My younger Brother Dennis and his girlfriend Jen and dog Aldo were at my dads house on Saturday for his b-day. My sister and youngest brother were suppose to be there but couldnt make it.. But you know what I was happy that one of my siblings could make it.. the girls had fun playing with the dog and he enjoyed the girls throwing sticks for him..

My dad loved his cake I bought him. I was looking for the perfect cake. I wanted some one here in town to make him a cake in the shape of a fish but couldnt find anyone to do it. So I kept looking and finally a week before we went I found the perfect cake for him.. It wasnt in the shape of a fish but it was fish related.. it was a quarter sheet cake with blue frosting as water and a bass fish on top that was a tape measure..



Then like i said the girls had fun playing with the dog and being with uncle dennnis..







Here is the girls at the park playing with Aldo..









It was a beautiful day to be with family on Saturday. We are staying home this weekend and clean house.. So I am off to do some house work before going to get my hubby and then back to bed for a while..

I took some overtime with a 1.50 hour increase in pay.. for 3rd shift.. go me...

Placing my Crafting stuff here for a few days..

Here are some crafts my MIL has made and asked me to sell for her. If you want prices but want to buy them.. Look in my etsy site and e-mail me please.. So check away and let me know I have more stuff coming up for her. I just havent taken all the photo's I want to take yet of the items. She has earring and such to.. I have to take photo's of them.. This is my new post until I can get some of my photo's sorted from my trip Saturday to my dads house. Look and see what you want. I have lots more coming up but check my etsy site too just in case I dont get them loaded here.or on my crafting blog. I do have a better post but no time to get it posted today. I have to leave in 15 minutes to go get Jeff.. So I am off and will make rounds later on..

Saturday Ride to Stevens Point WI..

Hi there.. I havent been around again much.. I made rounds this morning but didnt comment alot. I have been reading but no commenting.. I am sorry I have been absent.. I am here every day reading but not posting much. I like the new job except for it being 3rd shift. Its an easy job except for when the material moves and I dont catch it and we have to start over in my box.. Yikes. I did that Thursday night and the lady running the machine wasnt happy with me.. Oh well shit happens as I see it. People make mistakes and if they want it perfect make a machine to do all the work.. I cant believe I missed the mistake though..

Anyway today Saturday October 9th we took a trip to Stevens Point Wisconsin to a Craft Store called Hershners..Its one of the biggest Craft Stores in the United States I read somewhere. I was in my glory. We spent some money on more thread and yarn for me to make some new stuff. I went because i couldnt find some orange crocheting thread here in town and didnt want to spend the shipping cost on this material I bought today. I got some pretty awsome colors while I was there. I got some Halloween colors for some scrunches Mrs Z asked me to make.

She wants 12 new scrunchies and I will do my best to accomadate her with colors.. I bought some orange, green, black, a Hawaii Blue, fudge brown, a Christmas color and some other colors and then I found a spool pound of thread for .99 cents worth 3.99 today. I grabbed that right up..

Anyway we bought two more paint by numbers they were on sale today. I couldnt pass them up. I got two with African theme to them. One is a three piece set and the other is just really cool.. I will have to take photo's of the boxes.

But here are some photo's of the fall colors I took today. I hope you can see them ok. the car was moving and I put the camera in its mode for vechile moving but I sometimes get them blurry anyway.. I am tired but doing ok I guess. I am still working on my afghan and no where near being done. That comes after Mrs Z's scrunchies..

If any of you want scrunchies that have girls just let me know.. OK here are some fall colors for you all..

Oh before I forget I met another blog friend on Wednesday. Do any of you know The Griper if not go into my side bar and say a big hello to him and The Dawg.. That is her name. She is beautiful White German Shepard and the sweetest Dawg I have met in along time.. Enjoy..











Most of these were taken on the way home because we took a scenic route home Jeff knew.. so we went down a road where there was lots of color. Just beautiful. anyway enjoy. and I will try to post in a few days.. N..

Sundays Hike before Work for Me.

It was a beautiful day to hike. We didnt go to far so I dont know if there was wild life out or not.Jeff was sore from Saturday and I didnt want to be to sore for Sunday night for work so we went for a really small hike. It was cool out but nice enough I wish we would have brought our books with us to sit for a while when we were done with our hike.

I am slightly Stupid.. Not really Stupid..

Just read this and realize your bloggy friend here is slightly on her way to losing her whole life.. Not meaning to lose it.. We went out for a while today because I love those paint by number paintings and wanted to see what they had at this one hobby store we like. Well we got there and I got out of the car ok.. We walked almost up to the door and I lost my foot or tripped or something. Well I stumbled about 5 feet and almost went crashing through the dang glass window. I couldnt stop. I stopped when my head hit the window.

I am still slightly shaky. I still dont have those photo's of my dang afghan up yet. I feel horrible for making everyone wait. I have my few more rows on it done just havent taken photo's. Been just lazy the last few days.

Been a little extra tired lately too because of female problems.. so I have been trying to rest and get my sleep in. I could have shot our neighbors friday morning. I came home from work and went to bed. about 8:30 they are out there banging and booming because they are having there driveway redone. I was pissed off. I tried and layed there in bed for a while but couldnt sleep. i finally got up and did some running but when I came home I bitched at the one guy.

He apologized but they are thankful I didnt have to work Friday night. I think when you are going to do something like that its nice to let your neighbors know ahead of time. Anyway its done and I got some sleep today. So I am not as crabby but boy was i one not to mess with yesterday. the girls stayed out of my way because they knew. I didnt mean to be so cranky but only two hours of sleep maybe 3 hours. Not real good after being up most the night before..

Ok I am off to go finish our late dinner. I havent eaten since this morning. I wasnt hungry. Now I am starving amost 11 hours later.. I ate about 8:30 this morning and wasnt hungry when Jeff came home from work.I should have eaten something but couldnt.. anyway talk soon. I made rounds earlier today.. Have a wonderful Sunday my friends.

UP date here is my afghan I am working on.. At least the first 8 rows of it.. I have one more row almost ready to add.. This will be the second row of the / part of the Z..

here but not here..

hey all. i have been busy again this week. trying to get some sleep and work done around the house. i have visited today and made rounds.. Everyone has such lovely stories to tell today.. thanks for sharing them.. Its another school year come into our lives. We are working hard as we can. Bris liking her Dick and Jane book we found. I got it for 10.00 dollars at Barnes and Noble. good price for that book.

Anyway working life and school work is taking my life away from me lately. I am working a green, black and red afghan. Its in a granny square pattern. I am using the red as a edging and then putting most of the afghan in green and then the Z is in black. Its not for anyone particular just one of those I wanted to see i could do it. Jeff and I sat down and worked it out on graph paper and I am working my rows from there. Its looking real nice.I am only four rows into it and its real nice so far. I work on it when I have time..

the job is doing what they did last year around this. they are starting there shit with saying we dont need you on this night and then calling the following night.. Its hard to stay on a 3rd shift schedule when they pull this shit on you. but I am dealing with it. Doing what I have to do during the day and the evenings when I have time.. the girls have been helping alot too.. they are growing up way to fast for my likings.

I want to get them each a dress at Wal mart sometime and take photo's with my camera to make school pix of them this year.. I have the perfect spot to do them but money is always in the way. I am hoping in the next few weeks with one of my checks we can afford to get them each one of the dresses I want and then go and take the photo's. I wont be able to make the pix till next month but at least I will have there dresses.

They have been really good for me lately. some days are better than others but arent all kids that way.. I am ready for a nap. I have been up since 6:45 AM this morning. I went to bed at 10:30 last night and couldnt sleep after Jeff left this morning.. I want a nap and then stay up later tonight to sleep in tomorrow for tomorrow nights work..I might take a nap after my late lunch.

We are having Chili tonight and Taco's tomorrow.. I had to buy the damned Taco kit today because Wally World didnt have just the damned soft taco shell. I was probably not looking in the right area and didnt feel like asking for help.. Anyway I am off to finish my noodles for my lunch and then a short nap.. take care my friends.

Speaks for itself...

Hey all. I took these Friday morning when I came home from work.. Jeff was just leaving and I couldnt leave it alone.. I had to take these before putting my sore and restless body to bed.. Enjoy...







The sky was a pinkish color this morning also.. It was just windy and just horrible on the highway on my ten minute jaunt across High way 172 this monrning. I was all over the road. I wasnt the only one though. I wouldnt go my normal speed with it being that windy. I usually go the speed limit but went like ten under today just to make it over the bridge. I hate when its windy and I could have went through town but that takes longer to get home and jeff has to leave when I get home so I didnt want to take more of his time.

Ok going to go start dinner now. Take care peeps and I will make rounds in the next few days or so when I have more time. I have more time on weekends now than during the day of the week.. So have a wonderful Hump Day tomorrow.. My week is offically half over working 3rd shift.. Two more nights and then two days and most of Sunday..lol..

Just More Shit in The R Family Life...

Hey peeps.. I have some news. I gave up the Pizza job yesterday.. I was there for three days and she wanted speed and I just didnt have it. I went in and talked to her and she didnt even seem upset I was leaving. So it must have been for the best. I am not upset about it. I still have my full time job.. I am just hoping it stays full time for the time being. I was so tired last night and I am suprised I am not still sleeping. But I am wide awake and its only 7:08 AM. We went to bed at like 9:30PM last nigt. Well I suppose I did get like 10 hours of sleep. I will take a nap later on to stay up later tonight to go back into work at 10 tomorrow night.. It felt so good to let that pizza job go. Jeff came home yesterday and asked if I had been cleaning. He asked if I had just woke up and I said no you dont sleep to long when you only have one job to do. That is how I let him know I quit the pizza joint..

I have some things to do outside today and I am just hoping the weather lets me. I have to mow the lawn that needs it and taking the tent down today. We have used it one weekend since I put the damned thing up in the back yard.. Its raining right now so I dont know if it will get done today or tomorrow before I go back to work. Maybe I can encourage my dear sweet hubby to help me mow the lawn while I take the tent down and put it back in its carrying case. yes its one of those nice ones with the case it came in.. Just getting it to fit back in the case is the problem... I can never figure out how they had it folded in the first place.

I have some photo's to share but havent had the time to share them.. I still have photo's from the last time we were at the Wild Life Sanctuary and that has been a month already. I am way behind on blogging and spending time with my online friends. I havent even had much time for Etsy lately working the hours I was working. I just finished a blanket. Its pink, heather grey, and a blueberry pie color edging. I will have that one up in my other blog later. Maybe I should go take photo's and do that now while I am in blogger..LOL and then just post them on Etsy also.

The girls are doing great. I found a book I havent seen in ages and if any of you have some and dont want them I will take them. Just e-mail me ok. I found a Dick and Jane book at Barnes and Noble when I went and picked up the girls books last Sunday. I was on my way out of the store and in line they have a table with books and I found a hard covered D and J and Vampires Book.. I havent seen of those since I was Bri's age.. I had those books but of course my mom never saved a damned thing and we moved so much when I was small alot of things got left behind.. Things that I could have shared with my girls today that I no longer have because of my mom.

Jeff is at work and the girls are still sleeping its almost 7:30 AM.. Wow. They went to bed like ten minutes before we did.. Its amazing.. They spent sometime outside yesterday and came in and did school work and then back outside. They are growing up way to fast. OK here are some photo's. i am not going to comment on them. Just going to post them.







Ok peeps I am off to do some reading blogs and then some more house work if the girls are still sleeping and then time with my family today. Then a nap.. then work tomorrow but at least its only one job. So I can keep up..LOL.. with my daily life.. N..

hey

hi all. i have been busy since i last posted this.. I dont even remember posting last.. I just know its there..My wrist is feeling loads better now. Thanks for all the well wishes on that.. I need my hands for work and home for that matter. I have finished a blanket but will have it up and about in the next few days. still have the edging to finish.. so its not complete yet but very close.. i have photo's up the ass for you all but its late and I want to go to bed. I dont know when I will be posting again. i started the second job yesterday. Its not that hard that I can tell of yet. Its just putting toppings on pizza's and taking orders.. so I have loads going on here.


Life has just gotten a bit busier with me working about 50-60 hours a week my self. I am looking forward to it.. But for now i am off to bed even though I slept for like eight hours before I left for the full time job but got sent home because of course there wasnt enough work to keep me there till 6.. I hate this part of the temp job.. buts a job and its only parttime when they want it to be.. I am sick of it. I wish when they had us go out there it was for the whole eight hours..

Isnt It AMAZING

Here is our latest project Jeff has finished down stairs and we hung up tonight.. its a 6000 piece puzzle.. He has been working on it for about 18 months..It didnt take as much glue.. but it did take one and a half bottles.. Its amazing how much time it has taken to get this done. I know he has taken very long breaks. He got fustrated with this one but he finished it.. the girls actually helped with this one slightly. A piece here and a piece there.. and then I just sorted the colors for him. I dont put the puzzles together to often. I have put one puzzle together.. Anyway I have more pix of other stuff but I had to show this beautiful item off. VV we havent gotten to the puzzles you sent us.



Just different shots of it. Amazing.. this is our bedroom wall..



This one was taken when I got up close because the first two I didnt think I could get a decent shot of it..



Last but not least this one shows how wide it is.. Its as long as Jeff's arms spread out. Its amazing again.. It blows my mind away how big this thing is.. It took me sometime to glue it and it took him about a 18 months to put together.. We have officially run out of room to put up to many more of these big puzzles...
