• Good morning!  I see the sun again.  I hope it lasts.  Yesterday I got all excited about the sun.  And by 8 am it went by-by.    But it never rained, so at least we were able to be outside.

  
  

  I know something you don't know, and I'm soooooooooo excited.  I can't wait until she announces it publicly. 

  
  

  I'm kinda spacey today, so please don't mind any strange typos. lol.  

  
  

  Yesterday my grocery trip was a calamity in stupidity.  I drove into town.  (25 minute drive)  Was just getting ready to pull up to the ATM machine to get my grocery cash, and realized no ATM card.  I was planning on getting breakfast at McD's and was starving.  So scavagened my purse, found enough leftover cash.  Bought breakfast and drove alllllllllllllllll the way back home.  Get home go in the house.  Can't find the ATM card,  Grab the checkbook instead. (I'm gonna find it today when I do laundry....I put it in a pocket on Wednesday, but can't remember which one *sigh*)  Anyhow....so Rob says just use mine.  Okay, I said.  Where is it.  Its in the glove compart I'll go get it.  The glove compartment??? of the car I just drove??  Yes,  he says.  "YOU mean, I just drove all the way home, and had a way to get money?"  Yes, *AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!"

  
  

  Get in car drive back to town.  Poor Kaylin's thinkin' am I ever gonna get out of this carseat??  And as a side 3 out of those 4 times past a neighbours house they had this huge hounddog that scared the stinkin' snot out of me trying to chase the Geo's tires or something.  I screamed 3 out of the 4 times...cause he was HUGE!  DUMB DOG.

  
  

  So did my grocery shopping.  Got very tired, and nauseous.  But survived lol.  Let Kaylin have a dougnut.  She thought that was AWESOME.  Had to wash her off in Wal-mart cause she had it alllllllllllll over.   

  
  

  I was able to get Zeria new shoes.  And seperate her from her summer sandals.  Zeria has a shoe fetish.  And I was expecting a trauma over the sandals having to go bye-bye.  But she was too excited to see her new shoes (phew)  Sandals and the 3 days of rain we've had do NOT mix.

  
  

  I also went to Goodwill and got Rob 5 pairs of Workpants.  So I won't be hearing "Where's my work clothes"   as often.  I swear we have a monster that eats his work clothes.  And if I could find him I'd use the shot gun on him. LOL

  
  

  I bought Kaylin the cutest little Garanimal outfit too.  She very very rarely gets "new" clothes.  But this was toooo adorable.  I wish my camera was working   Its pink and orange stripes on the legs.  And a flower power shirt.   

  
  

  Samuel poor guy didn't get anything this time around,  But he didn't need anything either. 

  
  

  The wood is allllllll cleaned out of the lean-to.  And the dirt is raked up.  Now we need somebody with more expertise to come and tell Rob what to do next.  We know its digging the dirt away from the walls, etc.  But not sure how much, and how level we have to make it.

  
  

  Today's my laundry day.  And laundry has just become a pain.  Because my laundry room is in the dirt. (YUCK)  And its a 4 foot step down into that room right now.  The only part of the room that has floor is where the washer and dryer is.  I used to fold my laundry out there and watch the kids play outside.  Not sure what I'm gonna do now.  Maybe I'll fold on the picnic table.  Which means hauling everything back inside.  But if the kids are happy...I really don't care. 

  
  

  Father, God today is a day I'd rather be lazy.  But I'm choosing to worship you instead.  I ask you to give me the strength to do what needs to be done.  The brains to stop when I should.  Thank you for protecting Kaylin, the baby and I as we drove yesterday.  There were several angel incidents yesterday, and I appreciate it greatly!  Please watch over my friend with the good news.   And continue to give her peace.  I love you.

  
  

  Amen
