Pleasent Sunday


For once I actually had a pleasent Sunday. Usually they stress me out something awful...but I was a good girl and planned ahead and got everything ready last night. Seems that I am much more able to do the things I should/want to do lately. I think my meds are finally working....LOL. Anyway.... I enjoyed going to church and actually got something out of it for once. Emma went to the nursery and stayed in it without much trouble after she got over her initial reaction. I even got a short nap after all was said and done. Only about 45 min, but better than nothing and it did me alot of good. I took Joshua to work and got some biscuits from the store so I can make biscuits, gravey, eggs and grits for dinner. Sounded good to me. I am hoping to get a bunch done on Britany's costume tonight. I am actually feeling pretty good for once in my life....LOL. Later Gaters, Kai!

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow.....

Well....I spent Tuesday with a friend eating lunch and doing some shopping at the store...then we talked for the rest of the afternooon. I did manage to get my counter cleaned off and Emma's costume cut out before I went to bed that night. So...I did manage to accomplish something that day.

Yesterday I spent the whole day sewing....and I did manage to finish the costume just in time to get it on her and out the door to go trunk or treat at the church. It was fun...but hectic. The upside being I am finished and when it's time to trick or treat on next Tuesday I don't have to worry about it..... The down side is I still have to make one for Joshua's girlfriend, Brittney. UGH! Oh well....at least the counter is already clean and it is also red and black like Emma's ladybug.

I overslept this am and didn't get Caleb and Hannah off to school...... I'm sooooo bad! But I was sooooo tired that I just didn't get up. I turned the alarm clock off, then layed back down......just for a minuet don't ya know....and didn't get up until 10am. That's when Emma woke me up. So now they are home for the day. But that's ok....no big deal. It isn't gonna kill them.

My goal for today is to get my dishes done and Brittney's costume cut out. I have until Monday to do it, but I don't wanna be cramming it in if I can help it. Dinner is Hamburger Gravey over mashed potatoes. We are running low on food at the moment and that is what I have on hand. Our next FS alotment isn't until next Wednesday and I am hoping that they will have our loss of income on there and it will be bigger. I can do with what we get now, but it is easier with more....of course. UGH...I sound so greedy...but I'm not! Just worried. Please pray for us! We really need the help. Later Gaters.....Love, Kai.

I'm starting a journal. I am striving for alot of things and thought it might be good to start writing things down and seeing if I can find somekind of focus. Right now my big goal is to get this house in order. It has been out of wack for so very long and it's time to be a grown up and do the things I am supposed to do. So...here goes! Wish me luck!

Today I did about 8 loads of the mountain of laundry I have to do. I also worked on the bathroom a bit. It isn't done by a long shot, but it's better than it was and will probably be finished tomorrow. I need to buy a new toilet brush.....where to other one went I have no clue, but went to clean the bowl and it was missing. I also need a trash can for in there. I'm kinda tired of paper rolls and trash all over the floor. Going to get them tomorrow. I still have much more laundry to do and a bunch to be put away, but I need to spend some time cleaning my room before I can put anything away. I do have it all in a basket however.

Tomorrow.....big goal is cleaning off the crap counter and get busy on Emma's costume. I have to have it done by Wed evening....UGH. I should have been working on that today, but I got busy doing other things. I am going to have to find some time to defrost the freezer so I can pull out meat for meals...UGH again!!! It has frosted over and I can't get at our food. HEY....maybe I can talk Mark into doing it since he isn't working at the moment. Tomorrow is also my counseling appt. that's at 11am. Okay...dinner??? UMMMM.......Chicken fettuccini I think...if I can get to the chicken tenders that is...LOL. Okay...I'm off for now. I'm tired and need to put the food away and finish filling the delapadated dishwasher. Later Gaters, Kai!

Rough times ahead....

It is a bad time of year to be out of work. We have the holidays comming up and several birthdays in December, but we now find ourselves once again without income. I am praying for a miracle....please pray for me! I really really need it right now. My husband lost his job today. And now I am worried about so many things I can't even think. I think I shall drown my sorrows in some PUMPKIN CAKE and diet be damned. Later Gaters, Kai.
