Busy Busy

Well, not really too much going on. It just seems like we have been running a lot this last week. With my daughter's birthday and having a few dinners out, going skating, 4-H and just a lot of running for just her. Good thing my son is too young and not in anything YET! I'm sure by next year that will change since he will be old enough for soccer and t-ball.

Work has been busy, and crazy. I so just want to be able to leave....but that won't happen. Hopefully my husband will find out more on his job soon. It is getting frustrating not knowing when they will open up and when he will be back to work.

It was sorta a sad week saying good bye to family. Our family from AZ went home on Wed. We had a nice dinner on Tues. with all of them. The cool thing about their visit is that the family gets together. We don't get to do that much. Well, my son got to see my cousin's son more and they really got along great...my son actually started talking and opening up more! It has been great to see him interact with other kids and grownups and not be stuck up my butt the whole time!!!

Well...gotta go finish my sgetti.

What a Weekend

We had a great weekend with the corn festival and visiting with family. It was a lot of fun. Today is my daughter's b-day! I took the day off. She has fair project judging tonight and wants Taco Bell for her B-day dinner. We got to celebrate her b-day yesterday with my family and then later in the week we will get together with my husband's family. This is the first time we have done separate things....but with family in from out of town, we just felt it better.

I'll post more later....gotta get lunch out of the oven! Fish sticks and fries!

A hot one

Well they are predicting that today is going to be a hot and humid day! We are all suppose to go to my grandma's tonight for dinner....but it will be even hotter over there! Maybe we will just go to eat and then come home. I have off work tomorrow but am missing about three meetings...I'm torn as to take the day off....but I honestly don't think I can handle anymore of the laziness! I think I need a day off!! So, I'm just going to take it....screw it! Can you tell I'm a little bitter about things lately around here!

I guess I better go back to working....I need to get my reports done that were due the 10th.

What a Day

First off...I really miss my daughter! Even though the 14 year old attitude is rough on me...I still miss her! She will be home this weekend though.

We have been running with my family that is in from AZ. Last night my aunt from AZ made enchiladas and burritos....yummy!!! We were all stuffed. My husband opened the windows last night and turned off the A/C. It was so comfy this morning I didn't want to get out of bed to get ready for work....needless to say I was a few minutes late!

I'm taking Thursday off to get the house cleaned up for all our company this weekend. Starting Thursday is a Sweet Corn Festival here in our little village. The parade is Thursday, with fireworks on Friday and a corn hole tournament on Saturday which my husband and daughter will be doing. They have other fun things like, tug-of-war, corn husking contest and bands and rides for the kids. I don't let my kids ride the rides though...I don't trust rides that you set up in one evening!! But the biggest fun is the FAIR FOOD!!! That is right Sara I will be having fair fries this weekend! I know I know....you probably already had your summer fair food! :p

My grandma took my little one today for a few hours so that my husband could get a few things done around the house that he can't get done with him home. Hopefully he will be back to work in a few weeks....me personally am ready to quit my job! Seriously I'm getting tired of working with lazy people! Just my opinion! :o)

Well, my husband is back with our fast food Chinese!! yummo.

It's Party time!

Today is a big day! We are having a surprise 30th wedding anniversary party for my aunt and uncle. They are the only ones in the family that have stayed married! That is a huge thing! It is SO hot and humid today though. And everything is outside. But, it will still be fun. For a surprise our uncle and his family from AZ came up and some other out of state relatives also.

My daughter will be also getting ready to go on vacation with her friend and her family. They are leaving first thing tomorrow. So we will stay at the party for a few hours and then head home to get her ready.

Currently I'm doing laundry to make sure we have all her clothes clean and ready to go. I need to get my son dressed....he likes just staying in his jammies....which is fine, they are shorts. At least we have AC at home so it is not too bad inside....but later today outside...it will be one of those days that you sweat just sitting there!

Okay...I'm off to finish laundry and get motivated to finish getting things ready to go to the party.

My first blog

Okay...this is my first time. I thought I did this once...but it didn't do anything. So we will try again. lol

I'm hoping to be able to blog every day or every other day...this is a good way for me to journal my daily thoughts. I use to have a journal page, but didn't keep doing it. I have a myspace too, mostly to keep track of my little girl...and it is a good way to keep in touch with family in other states.
