Good morning
Rainee Grace slept in. And REAL sleep in. Until 20 to 8 this morning. And *gasp* so did the other kids. I was absolutely shocked. Okay Rainee nursed at 4 am. But that was done 98% asleep. *snicker* And BOTH of us BOTH of us got to stay in bed until 20 to 8. This folks is a red letter day in the last 18 months.
hehehehehehehehehe
Soooooooooo probably the reason is we went to the corn maze last night. We found all 7 points in the maze.
And had a lovely time. My mom and her munchies were there, and my brother & sil & his munchies. My mom petered out, and left her kids (quite old enough to take care of themselves) on their own, and my brother & sil & our gang ended up going together for 4 of the points. The deal is if you get all 7 you get a Sunny dollar to spend on the snack shack. Which meant of course 5 little bags of candy. *snigger* And 2 apple ciders.
Kids have a great time. I did take a couple pictures. And I'll upload them later.
Sad point. The corn maze had so many misbehaving children the week before, that they almost had to close down. So this week on the Friday night their was a sheriff standing at the entrance, just to remind the pre-teens/teens without parents, that their were rules. How sad is it that a family entertainment can be made a mess?
Anyhow, it was a lot of fun, and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
Had a unexpected visitor yesterday. Alicia stopped by on her way home from ils. We had a good visit, and her kids wore mine out quite a lot.
Wearing out is ALWAYS a good thing. *snicker* You can do that anytime you want Alicia.
When I was growing up stopping by at a friends house was normal, people stopped at my parents house and stayed for a visit all the time. Only Alicia does it, and I miss it. Its much more fun having unplanned company. You don't have to clean, you don't have to feel guilty for your house that looks like 5 kids lives in it. *snicker* And you can just relax and chat.
Anyhow after the week of hell, I guess God is giving me a week of peace. Its nice how he does that.
On another tangent. I'm very concerned for a couple online friends. Divorce, new baby, and dealing with the fall-out of divorce. Life is just hard some days. Know the five of you that I'm praying a lot. And wishing I could just hug all of you in real life.

if i lived near by i would love to just drop in and visit. i am one of those people that does do it. mostly do it to a friend that lives 4 blocks away. well i have been known to do it to chris too. but with her it is more of a call at 8:30 in the am- can i come over?
A week of peace is such a wonderful gift. *g*
I'd drop on people I know well enough.
Others, I wouldn't 'cause I don't know if they would appreciate it or not. lol
Aw, I wish I could (((hug you too!))) The corn maze sounds like fun. I remember when thay have had one of those here (we have been in a bush maze and one made of partitions at the science center, but not corn!
) And BIG WOO HOO! for the kiddos sleeping!! Maybe you should go to more corn maze things late!! 
Yay for sleeping in! I hope my week of peace will be here soon
Someday I'm gonna drop by for that hug *g*
So glad you got to sleep in!!!
