WOW What a Week!

Yikes! I knew this week was going to be crazy and it definately was! This is the first chance I had to get on the computer. I had 6 groups in at work this week. Monday thru Wednesday I got home late. So with my week being so busy I have spent today doing laundry. I am still waiting on the laundry fairy to come over and help me out but somehow it never happens.

I did get time yesterday to go over by Scrapbook Heaven and pick up Lauren goodies that she purchased over the phone with her gift certificate from the yard sale. Can you believe that woman thinks that I am going to make sure that bag of goodies gets to her? Possession is 9/10 of the law right? Just kidding Lauren.. I will try to get your stuff in the mail this week.

Katie won a ticket to the Lookouts game at school about 2 weeks ago. She is the most improved in her class. The prize was the ticket. I got extra tickets from my work so that we can all go. The game is on Monday night. She keeps reminding us that the game starts at 7:15.

At school on Friday Katie participated in the Run-Walk- A-Thon. She got donations from the family. You could pledge a specific amount or so much per lap. It seems she only ran/walked 9 laps. So.. this time I would have got out much cheaper if I had pledged per lap. Hey you never know. Last year she ran/walked over 40 laps.

Well I gotta run the dryer is buzzing.

Great Weekend!

What a great weekend!! I went shopping at the scrapbook yard sales at Scrapbook Heaven & Scrapbooks & Moore in Knoxville. I got some great buys. It was so good to get to see Renee, Melanie B, Melanie L, Kay and Lauren. I think the overnight trip refreshed all of us. You know some time you just need some girl time. We even talked about when we can plan to do it again!

While I was gone to boys (AKA Wade & Chris) had some guy time. They went to the dirt track races on Saturday night. They are soo excited about working on the car. They have spent the whole day today out in the garage working on it.

Katie came home from Girl Scout Camp. She had a blast. I can't wait to see the pictures. She got to go out in a canoe and also got to ride a horse named Traveler. She said the only complaint was that she had to kill a bug.

Looks like we are all refreshed and ready for the week ahead. Monday through Wednesday at work for me are going to be hectic. I have 6 groups of people that will be in town during that time. I will just take it one day at a time.

What Wade's Been Doing




Wade has been busy working the yard lately. He has put in a pond. It looks soo good. It is still a work in process. He still needs to add more rock and Katie has to pick out the fish that goes in it. I just bought some plants last night for it. The rest of the yard is looking great too. We actually reseeded the lawn this year and have kept up with the watering. I am so proud of him!

KnoxVegas!

Well Katie is off to Girl Scout Camp and she is thrilled. This will be the first time out of town this long without me, Wade or family member. She has everything packed already. So since she is leaving... I did not want to stay home with the boys. So... Lauren is coming up from Atlanta tomorrow and we are going to KnoxVegas!! Saturday morning is the Yard Sale at Scrapbook Heaven. We are going to stop over at it in the morning and then head to Knoxville. We will go to the Yard Sale at Scrapbooks & More in Knoxville and then over to the Love Crop to scrapbook the rest of the day. We are going to spend the night and hang with the girls in KnoxVegas!

What A Weekend!

Well just when I thought it could not get worse it does. I caught Katie's stomach bug. Yep I was up Sat night/Sunday at 2:30AM praying to the porcelain god. I guess only one good thing has come to all of this. Yep..I have the cleanest toilets of anyone around. I have spraying almost a whole can of Lysol around everywhere. So far Wade has dodged the bullet on this one. (insert devil laugh). I hope he does not get it. (LOL)

Another good thing is that while I had free time on Friday staying home with Katie, I got all the invites done for Lynne & Billy's vow renewal. YEA!!!

Well Katie is going to Girl Scout camp this weekend without me. I am kind of sad but I am also glad I don't have to go. She is sooo excited about going. She is going to get to ride a horse. I will let you know how it goes.

Friday the 13th!!!

Yikes!! I had actually not even thought about today being Friday the 13th. It hit me this morning when I got to work. My freaky Friday started off at 1:30 AM with Katie getting sick. I thought it was just something she ate. But after throwing up 3 times I knew something was not right!! Just when I thought that was it...NO... the cat started throwing up to !! Needless to say after being up till 3 AM cleaning up and 1/2 can of Lysol, we were all ready for bed.

We all got up fine this morning.. tired but fine. Katie was feeling better so I sent her to school. Well.. that did not last long. The school nurse called me at 11:30 to come and get her that she was not feeling well. Come to find out they sent over 100 kids home from school yesterday. There was a note sent home.. that of course I did not read. Seems like there is some kind of stomach bug going around.

So..Katie and I are at home today. She is in the bed watching cartoons and I am in my scrap room working on invitations for my inlaws renewal of wedding vows ceremony in May. I have close to 100 of these gems to get done in less than 10 days.

So that is my next adventure....
