I NEED A WIFE OR A NANNY

I have been such a slacker on blogging. Sorry to my faithful readers! I am surfing your blogs and I apologize for not commenting. I have been working til after 6pm most nights and then of course my fam needs clean clothes and dishes so that comes first! You will notice I didn't say food, Thank goodness for neighbors and fast food! We have eaten with our neighbors 3 times in the past 2 weeks. I need to cook for them, soon!

Today is jam packed with stuff! Thankfully some of it is cancelled!

Coco was supposed to play in a softball tournament today from 9:30 to ???! All parks are closed due to weather, but the commissioner is out on the fields making a decision as to if we might play later today. Please let them say no! I want to stay home this morning and blog with a little cleaning thrown in here and there. Don't you love that photo, I found it on Flickr. Thanks firefighter man with a camera!

We have fittings for Cheer this afternoon. How do parents with more than 1 child fit all this stuff in??? God knew what he was doing when he gave me only 1, I couldn't handle more!

This evening our Girl Scout troop is camping with the Naturals minor league baseball team. Well, I don't think the team is camping but we will set our tents up on the outfield of the ballpark. It is supposed to be a low of 42 degrees in the morning. I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THAT!!! This gets me out of a real campout with making fires and woodland creatures so I can tough it out for one night. I might be sleeping most of the day Sunday if I can get up. I am worried about how sleeping on the hard ground is going to affect me. I know WIMPY WIMPY WIMPY!

I am off to call the scouts to set up meeting time, I know the other mothers are just as excited as I am.

Happy camping to all of you today! Stay dry!

Blessings,

Pam

RECAP OF MY WEEK

I have been a slacker, I know. We have been super busy this past week.

We have been here.

I am having trouble getting my camera to focus on something besides the chainlink fence!

We are having a garage sale today and tomorrow so every night has been filled with getting stuff ready. My lovely sister is working it today and I have to do it tomorrow. I am sitting her thinking about what I will spend my loot on and I happen to look at the living room window with its 70's style drapes. I think I will go to Lowe's and get me shades and a new rod. I have said I was going to do this for the past 2-3 years and haven't done it yet. Well this is the year. I will post photos of before and after for you.

Yesterday was my last day at the new job! Monday I go back to my old job. I am excited to go home. I liked everyone at the new job but it just wasn't the same and they didn't really need me, I spent half my time twiddling my thumbs. The girls at the old job say I better be ready because they are swamped and working lots of overtime. I won't mind that, we can use the extra cash.

Last night on my way home I was listening to KLRC our christian music station, Focus on the Family is on everynight around 7pm. Last night they played a clip from Beth Moore on marriage. I just love that women to death. She can make me see things in scripture that I never would have gotten out by myself. She talked on Ephesians 5:21. It really brought it home to me how my husband is supposed to be the head of the household and we are called to submit to each other. She also talked about how as women we always want more. When your husband tells you that you made a good supper, you wonder why he didn't say it was a great supper. That is just my example but I do this. Her point was no marriage is ever going to be perfect and why can't good just be good enough. If it was great you would want it to be fantastic. I have to learn to be content with good because good is GOOD!

My house is a wreck from going thru closets and getting our summer stuff out. I have been on the computer for the past hour and a half so I should turn on the tunes and get busy.

Blessings,

Pam
