Happy 4th of July!

What a great fireworks display we went to go see last night, thanks to Jeanie and her family to let us in on this tradition. It was nice, a little warm but okay, the show was great and we got to see Debbie and Ken also. Debbie is looking wonderful in her new body, way to go girl! Here are some pictures I got with my phone so they are not good, but they will be scrapped! Enjoy...tomorrow is moving day so it should be an emotional one.

Kids Move getting close

Well I guess it's really official now since they went and bought their bed yesterday that they really are moving! UGH... I went and bought their dishes today, they picked them out and that's part of my "housewarming" gift. I want to buy everything for them but I need to let them do it. I did buy a few items that they might not think of like first aid stuff and sponges and a night light as Danielle hates to sleep or walk at night in the dark. She has been that way forever. She used to get up, walk 2 steps put the hallway light on, walk to more steps to the bathroom and then after go back to her room and leave the light on all night! I have a couple of extra ones if they need them.

So I decided (well my coworkers) made me realize that I can't turn her room into my craft room just yet. I need to make that my mom and aunt's sitting room! UGH..but they are right, now all they do is sit in their bedroom, watch TV, come out for a few hours, sit at the kitchen table, stare out the windows, then go back in the room. This way they will have a little living room in there since we still have all their furniture, we might as well use it and it has a pull out bed so if Danielle comes back or something for a night, she can sleep there. I think it will be nice, gonna paint it a cream color and then go to storage get their stuff, put her stuff in there and we are set.

Work has not been very good lately, we are still downsizing the company and they let our recruiter go so now we went from 6 to 3 to 2 in July when my boss leaves! We are worried and I have my feelers out there and am looking hard not sure what is going on with our department but we think they will move our functions back to our locations in the US, bad move for them but they know best right? Anyway if anyone knows of any companies that are in need of a Human Resources person....please let me know.

well...off to see what I can do since I'm home all by myself today and I got to take a nice 2 hour nap but don't feel like doing anything else now...hummmm must have been toooo much sleep or something! LOL...

Have a great Sunday and God Bless you.

I must be an idiot!

Graduation Class of 2008 - Lake Dallas High School

As Barry Manilow would say "Looks Like We Made It!" well we did.....The class of 2008 graduated last night at North Texas University. What a day, after a major meltdown by me, the day ended wonderfully celebrating this joyous event with my family and dear friends J, K, & K, I would not have wanted it any other way. Now it is time for me to allow my daughter to move on in her life as an adult and to help her to achieve the best she can be.

Here are more pictures:

Things! Things! and more Things! What's a Girl to Do?

Wow, I am so not used to this blogger thing! I read a lot of them, but don't update mine. I go to someones blog and see they haven't updated it and i leave it....wonder how people feel when they go to mine and see I haven't updated it in months! LOL....

Anyway a lot has happened since my last blog. I had emergency surgery which was not fun, then a month latter had to have more surgery to remove my gallbladder which I am healing from now, went on a most wonderful enjoyable awesomess time (if that's a word) retreat with 10 of my most treasured girlfriends and had the best time even though I was in a lot of pain all weekend I was not missing this or them! They are my kite strings and I enjoy so much spending time with them. E and I sang our hearts out to Styx and D was a great back up dancer so if anyone is ever looking for some entertainment.....you know who to contact! LOL....We had the whole house to ourselves and we had more food to feed an army and stuff to work on than any group of 11 people could have possibly used in 3 days! What joy, I am truly blessed with these ladies and so thankful to God for putting them in my life.

Moving ahead....3 more days till Graduation! OH MY GOSH!!!! I am happy and sad all at the same time. I am so proud of my daughter and how she has turned out in this world. Next it will be off to college, wants to be a pharmacy tech so we'll see. Right now her and B are looking at an apt, tomorrow they are going to see if they qualify for the lease. Hope so, as they just bought all this furniture today, hopefully God will allow this happen and they will be moving in shortly...that's another OH MY GOSH for me. Guess I can think of it as her going away to college right...nothing more yet...I don't know they love each other a lot and he is so good for her just not ready to give up my baby...Wonder if that's how every mother feels...Now on the bright side.....I get my Craft room back...yipee yahooeeee....How bad is that~ :0)

Okay bloggers...that's enough chit chat for one day....Whewww made it through this and hope to post more often with pictures.

Bad Blogger! LOL

Prom is today, started out as a disaster but ended up being beautiful. Here is a picture of the lovely couple...they are so cute together and Britten sure does look handsome.





Now is that a happy face or what! LOL





Wow I'm bad, it's been almost a month since I last posted. A lot has happened since then, Daughter turned 18, Aunt came home from the hospital that same day, a week later I had to have emergency surgery, it was tax time and I had to pay the IRS, the air conditioner unit inside and outside of my house had to be replaced, we also had a water leak in the slab that had to be dug up and replaced, hummmm is God telling me something or what! I am so thick headed that I am not hearing him, but i am trying to listen real carefully. Oh and in between all this my BFF and I did a craft fair, actually sold something this time which was nice. What a month is has been.


Things at my work are changing as well, my boss gave her resignation last week so that was a shock to us, my whole department is looking for new jobs so if anyone is in need of a HR person with lots of skills, knowledge and can multi-task please let me know. On the good side, the lady at my office who had the heart attack is doing much better. She has been moved to a rehab center and is getting better each day, she is still her spunky self which is pretty awesome, I told her she was a true Miracle and that God wasn't finished with her yet! She has a long long long way to go before she can even be remotely well but it's a start.

Okay don't laugh but I didn't know how to get the pictures at the end, so I had to start with them then tell my life story! So looking forward to my weekend away actually get two next month and I can't wait! Everyone have a great week and hopefully I will post more often.

Is It Thursday Already???

Boy time flies by doesn't it? Well my aunt finally got moved to a regular room on Wed actually it was Tues night and the two nurses she had were comical she said. They both were Hispanic and didn't speak very good English and were trying to give her the medicine with large rubber gloves on and it keep falling out of her hands! She told them that she had all her facilities and to just give it to her in her hand so she could take it! They have had her up and walking so maybe today she will be able to come home. Now the fun will really begin! NOT!

I have been soooooooooooooo tired lately and went to bed at 8pm last night and slept till my alarm went off at 6:15am guess I needed to rejuvenate my body from all the stress it has been going through. I feel great this morning so we will see.

Tomorrow is my Baby Girls 18th Birthday! UGH....I can't believe its here already, where have the years gone? Don didn't get the job in Denton but the Lord has opened up more doors and he actually went to interview at Walmart yesterday and they had him go do all the pre-employment testing so that's a good sign he is in. I am really happy as he is because it is only 5 minutes away from the house and I know that he will be safe driving there. With his eyesight not being the best for driving I was scared to death of where he was going to have to go to work but I should have known better to let God make the choices for him and once we did, boom he opened the door~ What an awesome God we have.

Well ladies off to get ready for work....Y'all have a Blessed day!
