This little girl touches my heart

The Macs

This blog has touched my heart, please go there and pray for this child.

At Christmas she was fine and now she is taking chemo. She is under a year old and is cute as a button but is very, very sick.

If someone can tell me how to make a button for blogs I will be happy to add one. THIS FAMILY NEEDS PRAYERS.....Lets all get the word out and get more people praying for her....(I am just not sure of how buttons ect. all work) Lets spread the word.

Oh where, oh where, have I been????






Twice yearly I work for a lady that does a HUGE children's consignment sale. I am in charge of the toy section, so all of the toys you see (and many you don't) I place in their spots. Plus work throughout the sale. It's a fun job and I can shop early plus get paid well. It gets me out of the house at night for several weeks and brings me good adult interaction. So there you have it, my moonlighting fun for several weeks...My posting may be sparse for a short while but I will be back.

It snowed






Finally it snowed....here's the proof

Bread and Milk



Our strung out hyper weather people and calling for snow in redneckville. Around here everyone knows when this happens the local grocery stores are out of bread and milk. (this means the grocery stores in the surrounding big towns) Can you guess what the local Wal mart here in redneckville is out of ??????? Marlboro lights and Bud light....No kidding, I went to get some dish liquid and Tide and I was the only person in the store without a case of Bud, Marlboro's and five frozen pizzas. The check out girl even said that the sale of beer was up by one hundred percent.

How did I end up in this town??????

Dinner

Dinner was amazing. I forgot to mention in the recipe that you can use mozzarella cheese on the sandwich. Very easy and a great addition to my recipe collection.

I feel better


I feel better about myself with no make up.......

Me in a bottle???


A friend got me a bottle of this for my birthday. I believe that the same company also makes "Mad Housewife" pictured in the photo below. I have been saving my bottle of "BITCH" for a special occasion. I will let you know when I drink it....

Things that got on my nerves today


Here are four things that got on my nerves today,

1. Cat Hair

2. Finding sippy cups in weird places

3. Children's web sites that are hard for a child to understand and work

4. Stopped up toilets

How I am ...right now

At this moment in my life I am a procrastinating perfectionist suffering from insomnia. Sums it up. Now here at 2:00 am I am forcing myself to bed because my children will get up at the crack of dawn. Thank you and goodnight.

Frank


Oh my gosh, on the way to the In Laws we passed FRANK....Baby boy is OBSESSED with the movie "Cars". (most days we MUST only call him "Lightning McQueen) As soon as I saw this tractor sitting in a field I knew we were getting ready for a pit stop.

Just a few more Christmas pics






Top photo, Lulu and cousin, the eating of the ginger bread house (notice baby boy has the entire roof) Just a snap shot of Lulu I thought turned out good, the two bottom are during the Christmas morning blow up.

Christmas and New Years update (just a bit late)


Things have been hectic, you know the routine, take down all of the Christmas decor, clean out toys to make room for all the new ones, clean house and generally just get back into the swing of things. This year all of these task seem to have taken forever. Procrastination because of perfectionism is one of my BIG problems.

The holidays were wonderful and I am truly blessed. I have great family and friends and even got along with the In Laws this year. (apparently it was my Sister in Laws turn to be a problem with the MIL this year)

News Years Eve was also fun, we hosted a small party of close friends of my parents and played cards until 1:00 am or so.

The photo above is of the Christmas morning "blow up". Lulu got her pink DS and baby boy got all the usual boy trucks, cars and legos. (plus a ton of other various things to make sure they were spoiled just a little more).
