Spring is coming.It doesnt look like it, but it is. Its inevitable ya know? It will come. IT WILL!!!! I heard the birds this morning, a very welcome sound. Mom and dad will be here in 35days. I CANT wait! I need a mom hug...
Today I am catching up on the house work. I worked all week last week, have I mentioned how much I love my job? I frickin love it. I love the kids, even the smart assy ones, I love the people I work with. Its awesome. I love to get to wear Heels, I love to be exhausted when i fall into my bed.I however dont love the crap that waits for me when I have a day off.Like laundry,bills that need sending out and the check book that needs to be balanced, after we have eaten out for a week, cause I am too tired to cook when I get home. Yuck.Whatta waste. But it was better than having to cook, I'll tell you.
I also started &finished a project for a friend. I worked feverishly on it until Tuesday at about midnight. Then the guy at the postie didnt check the OVERNIGHT space, he checked 2day! Crap!! Stupid me for not checking. But dang it, I was on lunch and in a hurry.
Today I plan on Rockin out to my Judds Greatest Hits CD and my new James Taylor, have I mentioned how much I heart James Taylor and his HOT son Ben. Good Lord, JT and Carly spit out a fine son.
Anyway Rocking out to my new CDs, I am going to be checking out a new HDTV for Mike, its gonna be his birthday next week..It going to be a surprise!! I am also going to go through Autumns clothes today. She has grown 2!! Inches since march10th last year. She is only about 7 pounds lighter than Kyle, which is a POLE!! I have no dished to do, thanks to my FABULOUS husband, I am going to be getting some Flat Rate boxes ready for shipping, I want to get rid of some fabric scraps, if you have made it this far and are the 1rst person to leave a comment I will send you one.
Then I plan on knitting.and Planning my garden, I am going to be setting up a table downstairs soon , for my seedlings. Also I am looking at some chickens! Which Mike said I could get for my birthday,but sinceI am getting him a TV for his, I bet I can have more than just a few chickies!!
I am off to Rockin with the rythm of the rain ................
And here are some pictures of our recent bathroom remodel, we signed the pooper. : ) and our new floor.

: )

I got online to check 1 thing! 1 fricking thing. Here I am an hour later sucked into the virtual vortex. Ugh sometimes I hate the computer. Sometimes I hate my lack of will power to get off my duff and wash clothes.........

Sunshiny Sunshine

Oh yes the sun is out.Has been since yesterday. Its glorious. ALMOST warm, too bad its going to snow Friday,lol. Things have been good, busy. Autumn was sick, I thought she had strep, but took her to the DR. and all test were negative. Just a cold, boyOboy did she milk it,lol. Both of the kids had their dentist appointments yesterday, they both have to go to the Orthodontist, oh joy.$$$$ I got a couple of new books the other day, one is an Amish cookbook and is awesome, a knitting book,a book about getting back to basics, tells how to build a barn, and farmy stuff and another one, but I am sending it back.
I was scheduled to work all week this week and next, but this week has been cancelled, since a BEAM busted in the foyer area of the school, where I was scheduled to work. Sucks, but what can ya do? Nothing.
We started remodeling the bathroom upstairs. It look amazing.I'll have to upload some after pictures.We layed down a new floor,took out the old toilet,sink,mirror,lights and vanity and put all new in.In the next couple of weeks we are hoping to start the living room/kitchen area. We are going to put hardwood down.We plan on taking the carpet from the lving room and using it downstairs. Hopefully it will help warm it up down there a little during the winter.
I havent been sewing in a while. But got a call on maybe doing some projects for someone, we shall see. It kind of fell through last time. I am probably going to get rid of my old machines exept for 2 or 3. And down sizing my stash. I dont need all this stuff and quite frankliy coming down here and looking at it all gives me a headache. : )
Since we dont really know whats going on right now I am planning a garden, I am not going to NOT do it, if we arent able to move this year. We both have jobs here right now and it looks like Cali aint doing so good in that area. So we gotta plan extensively if we are to move, which you never know will or when it will happen. We are just taking it a day at a time at this point. So I guess I am going to do all the thing sI planned on doing, as far as painting and maybe getting some chickens and getting a better garden in this year than I had last year. This summer when I come down, I am probably going to bring the kids down and stay for a week , come home and leave the kids down there. Maybe . we will see. I am trying to get Dad to come home with me for a week or so this summer, but he hates leaving mom.Maybe I can even steal Tricia and the boys again. That would be nice.
Anyway thats it that going on here, I have a box to send mom for her birthday , so I want that to go out today. Some laundry that needs to be washed and some sun that needs me to soak it up.
