Good Weekend!

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

It was a nice weekend……………The weather is finally starting to warm up more and more each day,  and the Sun has been nice and bright.       Definitely still have LOTS of snow still on the ground from December 5th,  but it is very slowly melting.      The kids had fun playing in the backyard in all the snow.     They were using shovels to dig and try to find their balls they left outside.       Found all of them,  so that was good!

We ran errands here and there,   spent time outside and played dodge ball with the neighbor kids.     Now if it would only warm up into the 40s and above,   the darn snow would be melting more and more……….Oh well,   at least Spring is much closer than it was a week ago.      It has been a long,  hard Winter for most everyone,   so I am sure we all will welcome Spring and Summer!

Back to work tomorrow for everyone!     I hope your Monday is a good one.      Back to the normal daily stuff,  so will be busy myself.      Enjoy your night!

TGIF!!!!!!

Saturday, February 27th, 2010

Yeah Friday is here!

The kids enjoyed the day home with Mommy.     One has a bad cold and the others will probably catch it soon enough as well.    The weather is warming up a bit each day and that is really nice for once!

I have been busy with things at home,   so nothing too fun or special to report really.    Just being busy with all the upcoming changes that are going to happen very fast.      We will have company on Monday night for a short bit,  and hopefully that won’t last long.    I am tired of the nonsense.    Tired of so many things actually that I cannot mention here.     Some people in life are just too much of busy bodies,  poking their noses in other peoples business.     Just ridiculous!     Take care of yourself,   that is how I look at it anyway……..

Anyway,   tomorrow is Saturday!    The weekend will go by fast and hopefully we will have some fun things to do.    I think going out for ice cream sounds good!    Even though it is still cold outside,  ice cream can really hit the spot at times.    I know the kids will not turn it down for sure!

Well I am tired.     Woke up early again the last 2 mornings,   and it is catching up to me.     Time to head to my den for the night!

Enjoy your weekend everyone!

March Coming Soon??

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

Geez,   I am anxious for this darn month to be done with already.    Why?  Well probably because in March we will find our home and move from this darn place,  and start a whole new chapter in our lives………

Today was a busy day,   and tomorrow will be just as busy.   The girls will enjoy a day at home w/ Mommy.    They are out of school the rest of the week,  and my Son is out on Friday.    Tomorrow it will be a girls day out.   We will go here and there,   take them out for a nice lunch.   It will be a good day.     I love having my girls with me on these rare days.     They are way too precious at this age.    Just wish they didn’t  have to grow up,  as it seems that kids these days grow up way too fast.     What a  shame that is!

Well we originally found 2 and then today 3 homes that we really really liked………..However,  we found out after doing more research that the area these houses were in,  is not as good of an area that we require.   So back to the beginning to look for what we really want.     Still waiting on a couple of houses,  but I do know that the first week of March there will be plenty of more houses that will become available.    That better be the case,  as we will need one very soon.     I am not worried.     We have made it this far,  and definitely not going to give up now.     The weather was so darn cold today,   and the Sun was deceiving.      Definitely set a record low this morning and looks like me may set another one for tonight’s low as well.      Hey by the weekend,  the weather is supposed to be back to the freezing or just above mark!   That is good, right?    Smart-ass comment there………Of course,   can’t help myself with that.

Ok,  I am tired.    My Son has been waking up way before the birds lately and I wake up earlier than I want to,  so I am not too far from bed myself.     I have had so much on my mind lately that I have not been able to sleep as sound as I usually do.      Maybe tonight will be the night to do so!   I can only hope……….

Kisses everyone!   One day closer to the weekend tomorrow!!

COLD Outside!

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

Damn this weather just doesn’t seem to want to warm up at all!

It was freezing cold today.    I was pumping gas,  and the wind was whipping all around me,  my face was frozen,  my hands with gloves on,  were very cold.    And to top it all off,  the damn pump thingy was pumping my gas very slowly.    Kept jamming up on me,  taking forever to get $20 worth of gas.    Geez,  I didn’t think I would ever get done with that.       Thank goodness that my heat in my car works very good!!

Ok that is my complaint of the day.     Nothing too special here.    Made some calls,  got a few things done.   Of course no store seemed to have any boxes today,   so I will call again tomorrow.     Irritating now………..But,  we did find 2 new houses that we love!    If we got either of these 2,  I would be very happy.   Maybe within the next week we will know something for sure.    So many houses to choose from,  and yes I am picky.    I have to live there every day,  so it better be something that I really like lots and lots.     The houses there are bigger than we have now and a good $150 to $250 cheaper a month than we have now.   Not bad at all!

I did get my errands done today,  so that is good.   Tomorrow is going to be very cold,   and I have more errands to run,  but it will be my last day without the kiddos.      So much going on this week and the weeks coming ahead.    It is all still so very exciting,  but yet can be stressful at times.     Once it is all done,  all the stress will have been worth it for me.

Well it is that time of the night…………Time to head to my den and do one of my nightly things.

Kisses everyone!!!

Happy New Week!

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

The weekend was a good one for us……..Especially since we didn’t get any snow on Sunday that was originally forecasted!     I will never miss all this bitter cold and snow!

Today was a decent day too.    Cold outside,   but I had some errands to run,   so I got that out of the way.   Tomorrow is a day of getting as many boxes that will fit into my car as possible.    Won’t be too much,  but a few is better than none.     We have found a good handful of houses,   so we are starting the contact process and going from there.     We plan to be gone by the 25th of March,   giving us a good week in the new place before my husband starts the new job.      Time to unpack,   get familiar with the surroundings a bit more,  all that good stuff.

The next few weeks are going to go by very fast for us,   so I don’t want to waste that much time if I don’t have to.     The kids are out of school Thursday and Friday this week,   so it will be crazy here later in the week.    Definitely good to get my stuff done now,  so I don’t have to worry about taking 3 kiddos w/ me everywhere I need to go.

I will try my hardest to get a new video or 2 in before we hit the road.    Once we do,   it will be close to a week before I am online again.    I am thinking that will be the case,   but maybe it will be less………who knows.     I hope you all are having a great start to the new work week!

Night night kisses everyone!

Saturday Night!

Saturday, February 20th, 2010

This weekend is sure flying by already!

Today was a good day.    Hit the gym this morning and then later we ran some errands.    We have been looking at some houses online,  and sure is funny how just a few months ago,  there were SEVERAL to choose from.   Now there isn’t as many to choose from.    I am hoping that the first week or so in March,  there will be quite a few more to see.     Originally we were going to drive there (very long drive) and spend a few days looking at houses,  but when we figured out the cost,   it just wouldn’t be worth it to us to do that.    I know we will find a nice house online,  and can see the inside of the home and the yard etc.  via pictures.     I think that will be the best route for us.     I don’t want to spend extra money that can be used for other things if I don’t have to.     Not to mention the time,   since we don’t have that much time as it is.   We are now shooting to be in the new place the last week of March,  so that is just over 30 days from now.    That time is going to go by lightning fast,   so no time to screw around with anything else.

Tomorrow we are due for a good snow “storm”.    Typical crap,  always seems to fall on the weekend and last into the new work week.     You have no idea how I will not miss this crap weather!   No more harsh Winters,  no more super humid Summers,  with blood sucking mosquitoes…….    Oh how nice it is going to be.    I still can’t envision it all fully yet.   But I know it will be divine!     The mountains will be all around us to escape to.   Not to mention all the beautiful nature all around to explore.   It will take us some time to see it all,  but we will never be bored.    Heck,  if we choose to take a family vacation even,   we can drive to Vegas in about 7 hours time!    How about driving to Colorado even for a vacation,  or the Grand Canyon, etc.    It is going to be exciting!

Tomorrow will be an interesting day,  as I have places to go to,  but don’t know how or if the damn weather will impact that or not.    Too early to say just yet,  but am hoping the snow will be on the lighter side.     I want to get a good amount of boxes tomorrow,   and fill at least 5 or so.      Once I start really packing,  it won’t take that long for me to get it all done.      Just need the house now so I know what to keep and what to let go of!

Enjoy your night and happy Sunday tomorrow!!!

XOXOXOXO

Dreams Do Come True!!!

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

I can now officially say that dreams do in fact come true!

It started off as a good day anyway.   I had errands to run after the kids went to school,   so I came home and got ready  and headed out.    I found myself some really great deals and was really happy.     The weather was nice,  and the Sun was bright.    I was gone quite a while and then I cam home and relaxed some.

My husband had a great day too,  then he called and said very seriously that he needed to talk to me and I had to listen carefully.    I am like:  what is this about?      So he proceeds to tell me that he got the job out of State!!!!!!!!   OH MY GOD!!!!!!!    Our dream is finally coming true.    None of you will ever fully realize how much we have been wanting this to happen.      It will be incredible.     In fact,  we will be in our new home/State by the 1st of April.        So that is just over 30 days away from now.     Oh my!   Talk about being super duper busy in the days/weeks ahead.    But it will all be very worth it.    I am sure there will be plenty of late nights,  sleepless nights at times even.    But I will do whatever I have to,  to get us to where we want to be.    I am here to say that Dreams really do and can come true!!!

Never give up on what it is you want in life.    No matter what it is.     WOW!  I am still so extremely excited that I feel like I am still in a fog.    I cried quite a bit today,  and tears always leads to fatigue.     So now I am very tired.    I think I need to head to my den and do my nightly thing…………

Night night kisses everyone!!!

Still Waiting………

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Of course we are still waiting to find out any news whether we will be moving soon or not.   I am not a very patient person,  so for us this has been awful.     At lest we found a house we like,  so just need to get word so we can maybe secure that home or not.    Geez already!

Well the kiddos went back to school today.    That was nice to have the house to myself again.    Very relaxing.   I did hit the gym this morning,   came home and did some fun laundry.     It was one of those days…..The weather warmed up to 30 degrees,  but still was quite cold.    Felt more like 15 for a high.   At least the sun was bright.    Now it appears the next 4 days in a row,  we have snow in the forecast.   Nothing too major all at once,  but that piddly and annoying snow that slowly adds up.     Has this been our worst Winter or what?   I can’t recall a Winter that has been this bad.      Just picture this:   Green grass,  flowers,  blue skies and the bright sun………Wow,  that sounds quite tropical to me.     Too bad we won’t see that anytime soon here!

Well tomorrow is Thursday already.    This week has been off for me,   but tomorrow I have plenty of errands to run and more house work to do.     Hope you all have a great work day tomorrow!!!

Time to head to my “den” and do my nightly thing……….

Kisses!!!

Feels Like Sunday!!

Monday, February 15th, 2010

Man all day long I kept thinking it was Sunday.    The husband had the day off,  the kids were out of school.    What a crazy busy day we had!

Started off with a nice breakfast.    We had an appointment to look at one house this morning.     So we checked that out and LOVED it!   YEAH!!   Very nice inside.     A little smaller than what we have now,  but the inside of this house makes it all worth it.     I could definitely see ourselves living there.     Then we did a little shopping.   After that we went and looked at another house.     Definitely nothing compared to the 1st house we saw.   I wasn’t even that interested in the home.    I kept playing with a little tiny baby that lives in the house still currently.   She was so precious!    Obviously the house didn’t interest me at all,  and even though it was bigger than the 1st,   it was very choppy inside and was not in as good of a location,  and was a good $100 more per month.    NOT!

The kiddos wanted to spend their dollars,  so we did a little more shopping for them.    Finally came home and relaxed a little bit.     We got another call to see yet another home,   so once again,   we headed out to see that house.    That one was ok.    Better than the 2nd,   still nothing compared to the 1st.    Location was nice,   price was nice,   but just didn’t give me that good feeling like the other one did.     So we left,  came home yet again and headed to the gym.    Geez!    Told you we had a busy day.     Now if we stay here still,  then we have a home to move into.     It will be a nice change.   A different area of town we have never lived in before,   and new schools for the kids.    It would be a pleasant change for us.     So no matter what happens,  we will be just fine!!

Now I am very tired.    The kids are home again tomorrow,   so that will be interesting.   Back to “normal” on Wednesday.    By then the week will have flown by,   but that is ok.        One day closer to moving somewhere.    Now I am just to that point where I want to get settled,  and be done with all this nonsense.    Soon enough!!

Kisses everyone!

Happy Valentines Day!!!!

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

Happy Valentines Day to you all!

Today was  a good day.    This morning we headed out for breakfast,   and that was of course quite good.    The kids got some nice stuff from Grandpa and also from Nana.     We found another house that we have to look at tomorrow,  so now there are 2 possibilities for us.    It is always fun I think to look at different homes and compare each one to the other in all the different ways possible.    That will take up most of our morning/early afternoon.

It was VERY cold today here!   We had snow this morning,  even though it didn’t add up to much,  but that wind was terrible.     I will be incredibly glad when this bitter cold weather finally breaks, and the snow left here since December finally melts.    Goodness,  this has been a bitterly cold winter.    We are already over 16″ for our normal snow fall for the entire Winter season!   I mean really!!    I can’t remember a Valentines Day in some time that wasn’t very cold.     Oh well,  it makes for some good snuggling weather!!!

My baby girl lost her very first tooth tonight!  How cute is that?    On Valentines Day even!!    The tooth fairy will definitely be quite generous to her while she is sleeping tonight for sure……

Well my belly is quite full from dinner and then dessert,  so I am heading to bed very soon to relax.     Hope you all have a steamy and sex filled night ahead!!!    I sure am going to!!

Many naughty thoughts!!!
