Wow, its been a while

Yep I found facebook and it's so much fun. Emily is loving school. She is in special Pre-K for speech. She is doing very well. Every day it's getting easier for her. I'm in between jobs again......long story...no one wants to hear it.....the boys are doing good. Report cards came out and the grades look very nice.......Congratulations to Dana on her referral!!!!

Well my April lid group is FINALLY in the front of the line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First Day of School

Am I insane yet? Maybe! Three children, in three different schools, having open house on the SAME night! What are they thinking?

AND the buses!!! 3 Buses, coming at 3 different times, I finally get the schedule down, and WHAT?? They change the times!!!!

Is it any wonder we have gray hair????

On a good note, Emily loves school.....after a teary first day, she is doing fine, however, I've taken a new job, so now they may have to move her to afternoons at school....she is am now.......to be able to drop her at her new daycare.....which she doesn't know she is going to yet..........because I haven't had time to deal with that yet...........AAACCCCKKKKK!!!!!!!!!! I start Sept 8th, and we have an appointment to visit the daycare next week.........never boring here!!!!....PS the hunk of hair missing in her bangs was one of Ms. E's scissor haircuts...we are still waiting for that to grow out......grrrr

Oh and we have a new fur baby.....Anthony got a dog for his birthday....don't ask me what he is, and if anyone knows, let me know!!! He came from the shelter......he is part pit bull, but the dog is scared of his shadow...really sad, must have been abused....anyway, I know he is a pit bull something....but he has long legs and long ears so what is he.....we may have to wait and see...............he lets Emily sit on him.....yeah he is going to protect us......LOL..........

News

A VERY special Happy Birthday to our friend Lily!!! (pictured above)

Holy Cow are you guys hearing the rumors out there? I hope it's all true! A speed up? Can I put that in print? I really, really, really hope it's true!!

Amy has her referral!! I can't believe I missed that! I was off the computer for a while and EVERYTHING happens!! Maybe I should stay away and then the rumors will come to pass!!!

On the homefront..we have had some people looking at the house. No contracts yet, but my realtor said the feedback is VERY good, so we should have no trouble selling the house by spring time....well I'd be happy to stay until school lets out so I don't have to uproot the boys, but if opportunity knocks, we are selling.

Still haven't figured out WHERE we are moving to, we have looked at some nice places...there is one or two possible homes, we are looking at one tonight. Who said the market slowed down???? I found the PERFECT house and it was under contract before my agent could get us in to see it!!!! BUMMER, I LOVED that house....well if the contract falls....I told her to keep an eye on it!!!

Emily is not happy about living out of a box, so please everyone say a prayer that we sell and get the kids settled somewhere................Hayden said he doesn't care where he moves to, but he wants his own bathroom.....LOL....I then told him that there was 6 in my family growing up with 1 bathroom and we all survived...he is in shock............LOL

Happy Thursday!!

Donna has her baby!!!

Cleaning Freak

Well this putting the house on the market thing is a real pain in the rear! I'm a perfectionist, living with Fred Sanford...LOL..really I am packing and cleaning and moving and hubby thinks I'm nuts....but I want people to come in here and say "Wow this is nice and clean." We were looking at homes 5 years ago and it was gross some of the things we saw! Dirty dishes..I'm talking days old with dried up who knows what, and dirty laundry...now I know laundry is daily, but PLEASE hide the underwear on the bottom of the hamper!!! So these things pop in my brain all the time and I go on a cleaning spree....only problem is my hubby and children do not share this joy. LOL..... Lisa you were right this is a PAIN!

Well I haven't been around because here has been my schedule...
Monday Realtors
Tuesday Basketball practice...painters
Wednesday Siding worker/drywall Basketball, meet with realtors
Thursday Carpet cleaners, painter, drop van at the mechanics
Friday Doctor appointment, painters
Saturday Basketball game, Realtors, house hunting, yard prep, painting, etc!

And PS.......it has rained here for 2 weeks! Can we get a break!!!!!!!!
