My Happenings

This week I've been:

and it's:

My butt is dragging the ground, so this'll be the short version of a looooong week! LOL! I can't even remember if Monday was crazy or not, but Tuesday was my long day to work, this time with no lunch break :-\ followed by a day off Wednesday, which was at LEAST as busy as a day at work!!! Leah's school released at noon, then we snagged Burger King and ate it in the van on the way back to school for Leah's parent/teacher conference at 1:00, then *zoom* off to the dentist at 2:00, for poor Leah to have a root canal! *ouch!* Later, we went to the outlet mall, to find me some new tennis shoes-my toe has been KILLING me, and figured I'd try new shoes before throwing in the towel & seeing the foot doctor ;) I got some real comfy Dr. Scholls *ahhhh* and then just had to run nearby to Old Navy to grab some divine polar fleece goodies: a charcoal scarf & matching gloves for me, and some of the same for the girls *shhh, it's for Christmas!* HERE you can see the scarf, gloves, and headband for Leah (all in pale pink), and HERE the precious snuggly hat for Camryn {well, it's similar...her's is pale pink, with only one tassel on the top, and no gloves}

Yesterday was just as busy: though I did manage about 2 1/2 hrs. to myself after getting both girls to school, it was rush rush rush again to try to get both picked up (from two different schools) by 12 noon, and I was supposed to be at work by 12 also! *sigh* The girls had to hang out with me at work for a few hours 'til Joe got off, then I came home in time to cook dinner & crash. This morning I helped at my parent's, where we were having a garage sale, until 10, when I had to leave for Camryn's parent/teacher conference! Then it was time to go to work, then came home & starting digging out more junk to sell tomorrow ;) God, do we really have so much stuff?!?!? All that sold of mine today was our old stove, but hey, it brought $85 bucks! =))) I hope Saturday someone buys our couch, love seat, lamps and such!

Ok, so maybe I'm not making it sound as hectic as it felt....I know this is all part of everyday parenthood, it's just until lately, with only 1 in school, there weren't so many things to do & places to be ya know?Sheesh, just wait 'til Camryn starts soccer this spring, then she & Leah both will have games & practises, and by next fall, Cam will be in Pre-K and going 5 days a week. Go ahead, say it in unison: "Welcome to the real world, Heather!" ROFLMAO!!

Wrapping things up on a serious note, dear sweet Marina lost her mother today...please keep her in your prayers, and send her encouragement & hugs, won't you? My problems seem so trivial when compared with what's happening in others' lives. Tell your family & friends how much you love them, and do it often, 'cause you never know what life has in store for the future. Hugs to you all!!!!!!
