So I was 'tagged' to give out some "Cyber Hugs", this is funny to me since I'm not really a 'huggy' type person IRL. So here goes...
Stacy (my SIL): I love you so much girl and I'm sorry you and B are going through this...
Theresa: I miss you and R and A soooooo much! Wanna move here? pretty please???
Shelley (in OH): I'm hugging you right now, it'll get better, just keep praying!
Camille: I can't wait to see you again! June. Coffee. Boston. Plan on it!
Lorna: See above! lol
Gina: I feel like I found my long lost sister! See you in June too!
Reba: Thanks for chatting w/ me all day...
Alright, now that that is out of the way...
I found some more things that I want to do w/ my blog and C is home tonight so hopefully we can play some.... I know he said he needs to balance the checkbook so that means he'll at least be in the computer room... it's a step in the right direction anyway.
So I got this cut on my toe. It was hurting so badly yesterday that I made a dr appointment. (that's HUGE for me!) and turns out it got infected. Now I have a cream and an antibiotic that I have to take. Two things I hate, 1: taking medicine and 2: touching my feet! EW! YUCK!
So the different colors on my posts is the most exciting thing for me right now.
OH! I mailed off 2 more RAK's today and I hope to do another tomorrow.
We are going to a BBQ on Sat and I'm really looking forward to it. I can't wait to play some volleyball. I haven't played in ages! It ought to be fun. I just hope that it isn't too hot out. I don't know what they are predicting for Sat yet.
Oh pics tonight! I promise!
and my new puppy has learned how to sit on command! YAY!!!!!!!!! WHOOOO HOOOOO! A breakthrough!
I read a great book this week called All She Ever Wanted by Lynn Austin What a great read.
K, gonna go and straighten up the office here so we can get some work done tonight.
Catch ya later!

Snips, Snails, and Puppydog tails
So I'm back at my regular job watching 3 kids, 2 of whom are boys!
Memorial day weekend was not very exciting. I'm glad though that we have set aside a few days out of our year to honor our soldiers, alive, dead, retired, whatever. It's a HUGE sacrifice to be in the military and I'm so thankful that in the midst of all the anti war marches that we take at least just a moment to remember. Speaking of anti-war marches, how rediculous can some people be. I mean really does anyone really WANT a war??? Oh well. I really don't want to talk politics on my blog.
This weekend, C and I just hung out at the house. We were supposed to have some people over on Friday night but we had to cancel b/c I was sick. I was quite bummed about that! Anyway, nothing really new to report. I am beginning to count down the days until our vacation (25, by the way)! It was nice to just spend time together, ya know!? We've been so busy that just sitting on the couch to watch a movie was 'quality time'.
It's getting hot AND humid here in TX and I don't like it one bit! and we so need some rain down here! We found a place that rents jetskis and boats for the lake so we may do that sometime. How cool would THAT be???
Oh well, I won't ramble on and bore you anymore.
Have a great uh Tuesday folks!

Have a great weekend!
Well, my weekend didn't start off so great but it can only get better, right? It started on Thursday night, I thought I was having an allergy attack but wound up waking up on Friday feeling like I had the flu. I stayed on the couch ALL day. We were supposed to have a bunch of people over on Fri night, but we cancelled b/c I was sick. Then I got a migraine. I took an Amerge and a tylenol pm and slept from 12midnight until almost 11 this morning!!!! WHOOO HOOO I feel GREAT now! A little stuffed up still but I don't ache anymore and no fever.
Today, C and I have some errands to run and then we are going to a friends house. Tomorrow, we are teaching the kids Power Hour at church and then going to a cookout. Monday we are just hanging out at the house (so far, nothing else has come up... yet) It's kinda hot here and humid so that makes it yucky, however it is VERY windy so that feels good. I really don't have anything to report, I just don't want my blog to get 'stale'. ;) I did finish the layout I was working on on Thursday and I'm actually quite happy with it. So, I feel much better about that! Oh well, have a great 3 day-er and I'll get back w/ you at the beginning of the week.
PS:
Quick question for any other bloggers that might be reading this... I've noticed on other blogs that people get 'tagged' for various question type games... how does one know if they've been tagged? Do you send an email or is it that you find out by chance b/c you read it on their blog???? I wanna be tagged!!!!!!!!!

A day late and a dollar short.
I'm telling you right now that this is not going to be a happy go lucky blog post!
I hate that "A day late and a dollar short" seems to be my motto in life right now. Once again, C and I are having a money crunch, me being off from work for 3 weeks has really hit hard and well things aren't looking to good. Going to my mailbox used to be fun, I was looking for letters from home or from friends or RAKs from my SJ friends... but now it seems that every trip to the mailbox brings a bill or SEVEN! Can someone please buy my house in IL so that life won't be so hard for us???? C didn't sleep again last night, he's getting so stressed, he left for work at 7:30am.... that's like an hour earlier than he normally leaves. I'm starting to have nightmares about the house... it's just crazy and has absolutely consumed my every thought. I've been pleading w/ God to do something and if He decides not to sell the house, then I've pleaded w/ him to help me deal w/ this pressure... but so far NOTHING! I seriously don't know what else to do.
I've gotta get off that topic before I cry... I thought putting it down into words would make it easier but it's not so....
I have a lo to do for an album that we are making for Monique regarding the event she organized for April. I was supposed to have mailed it earlier this week.... but of course I didn't do that so today I've gotta put the finishing touches on it and send it out of here by express mail. Which is just dandy since we all know that I have a ton of spare cash hanging around! OY!!!!
Ok my puppy is just crazy. I just spent the last 8 minutes chasing her around the house b/c somehow she got a hold of C's razor!!! How crazy is that!?
Well, I'm going to finish that lo but if anything pops into my head I'll be sure to let you know!
