So, it’s been awhile…

and life has been pretty good….   We are now in our house and i’m loving it!!!  I will have to add pictures later…   My small table that I had in my old kitchen fits fine in this one, so the "dining table stress" was all for nothing.. I STILL have some things to do in this house, like hanging a few shelves in the kitchen, the girls’ bowholders in their room, and a couple of cork boards in their play/crafty room.  They love it here!!! All my worries about them moving and not having a million kids around like at the townhouse have proven to be worthless as well.   Not that there are any kids around here that they play with so far, because, well, there aren’t, but they LOVE it here.  The yard has proven to be a huge joy for all of us!!  We (by "we" i mean Charles) put a gorgeous flower bed out front complete with those little solar lights that i’ve ALWAYS wanted (i’m strange, i know) and it’s just gorgeous!! and we have 2 really beautiful hanging baskets out front too..

We recently picked up a decent stereo at a garage sale for $10 and put it outside.  The stereo box is in the shed and the speakers are put up in the top of the carport.. perfection!  (PS. our shed is bigger/nicer than the majority of garages that i’ve seen!) it is super nice! 

hmm, what else is going on.. I went back to work on april 12th, and it hasn’t been too awful.  now i’m down to just 16 more days before summer break!!! (school days that is)  although i did take today off.  Charles got into a car accident yesterday.  Luckily he is fine, and so are the people in the other vehicle.  The accelerator on the truck stuck!  and he couldn’t stop at a stop light.  he swerved and avioded one car, a telephone pole, then a mailbox.  He must have overcompensated and the back of the truck kicked back and he sideswiped a mini van.  Our truck only had VERY minor damage.  the van however lost it’s side mirror and entire front bumper.  So anyway, he stayed home today to have our insurance come and give us a check for the collision coverage on the truck, and he had some other work to do (landscaping).  so by staying home I was able to take him to get the rental car that Geico provided while the truck is getting repaired and he can now get this job done today..

I was supposed to take off on June 17th as well to go on Paige’s kindergarten field trip to the zoo, now i’m not sure if i will have the time.. i might just take off anyway, but money is getting tight now as EVERYTHING i need to pay for for the girls is coming up now.. ugh.  i had to pay for soccer registration, cheerleading registration, final dance bill, dance programs/tee-shirts, and dance recital pictures/tickets/DVD are all coming up in the next couple weeks.. ugh.

I love them doing things, it just gets a little crazy. I think cheerleading might be "too much" but they want to do it so bad that i signed ’em up!  I think it will be fine as cheerleading and dance will be their only activities in the fall.

oh by the way, anyone who is local, the girls’ dance recital is June 19th at 1 and at 630 if you are interested.  just lmk!

ok, i’m off to clean up a bit around here and enjoy my day..

ps. please note if you read, even if just a blank w/ your name.. i’m trying to see if anyone is still out there.. lol!
