Well Shmell... Hello blog world, which I know by my little counter over > to the right lets me know who is and mostly ISNT coming to read my blog. Why isnt my blog being read? Is it because it sucks and is boring, or maybe not enough pictures. I have been debating taking this down, but who gives arip. I am leaving it up so that me, myself and I can converse with each other. ; )
What have I been up to? A little bit of Nada. Mom and Dad where here for 11 days and we had an amazing visit,couldnt have asked for any different weather, snowing when they got here and nice later.They loved it, I think Dad would move here if they could. We didnt do too much, visited about a MILLION antique stores and went to
Cour'de lene, and Cabelas (my fav!)The kids enjoyed having them here.I enjoyed having them here, Mike enjoyed having them here,they enjoyed being here.
I havent worked much lately,Mikes hours are being cut again.But it is better than the alternitive of having NO JOB. After the 14th or so, I wont having internet anymore, which is fine by me.Cable has been reduced.Right now I am getting ready to ge the garden set up, got flowers in and hopefully they will be okay. We had planned on doing Raised beds this years, but just not in the budget. So the yard is coming along.
I am still KIND of looking for a travel trailer, not that we can afford alot right now, but shoot if we had to live in it like Gypsies we could ; ) . Saw one in Post Falls, but the inside had a little bit of fire damage and it smelled funky. One at an RV place was CRAP and they wanted 1K for it.................... its still there.; ) There have been a few on CL, but just not THE ONE.
I have been walking everyday atleast a mile.Trying to build up myself to run the whole thing.
I am going to the MaryJanes store to do a Rug class in May. That should be cool,gotta start cutting up some sheets for that. Other than that I am just looking forward to summer and spending time with my family..
And that is how you have a 3way conversation with me,myself and I~

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.

Yes we know, I suck at blogging. Its just a fact of life for me.
Things are going good, we are discussing moving back to California. My parents need us. Dads health sucks ass, and Moms isnt any better.Speaking of them both, they are coming for a visit!! Yep mom and dad are getting on an airplane!! Can you belive it? 76 days and I can see my parents!! I am STOKED!! I plan on doing alot of showing the area off, Buggy Barn, Downtown, the lake, maybe taking a drive into Idaho. They have never been anywhere, I want to make this an awesome trip for them. I plan on having alot of time showing Mom off to my friends. I am hoping we have a FarmGirl meeting while she is here. And the kids will be on break most of the time they are here. On moving back -I dont know that I REALLY want to go back. For family yes, for the mind games, smog and stupid people Um No! Give me my parents, neices and nephews, even the brothers and I would be perfectly content staying here.
We are playing it by ear right now. Work is very slow for Mike.There just isnt anyone buiding anything right now, which is tough for him, cause he likes to do good work.
The kids are doing great! I am doing good and all our pets are too. Autumn (we) got a Gerbil, I wanted to name her Richard Geer, Autumn didnt get it.lol
Kyle got a Crayfish, I am still not exactly sure their purpose, but he wanted it.He got it .
Anyway I am going to go knit.. Toodles!!

bad blogger
No way, ok so I am a bad blogger, but whatever.I've been busy okay? Seriously. And now its snowing,and its supposed to continue snowing for a while. I just tried to go to work and cant get off of my road, nice huh?

Autumn will be 8 next year, again how do I feel about that? Old, again just old .Is there anything I can do to slow down this process? nope, as they get older so do I.HPH!
Next week will also be our 2nd christmas away from home. It will be our 11year Annerversary. Yikes! 11 years? wow ,I'll have to try and get some of our wedding pictures scanned somehow.Its been a tough road, but at the same time amazingly easy with Mike by my side.
I am still working alot. Today I work for a few hours need to get the christmas presents sent to the kids in Cali, go to the grocery for Kyles class birthday party and run into the library. All in the snow. I think I have become used to getting around in the weather, still scares the crap outta me, but hey, I cant stay in doors always.Mike is staying w/K tonight hopefully, because my boyfriend is coming over, LMAO JUST KIDDING, I dont want him driving at night in the snow, he cant see good enough for me. Anyway gotta run here are a few pictures from lately! Never mind on the pictures, my computer is being an ass face..
