Barb, if my son decides to go to Baker College in the fall (in Flint), can he join your Hungry Howie's once in a while? That way I'd know he was eating something besides fast food once in a great while. LOL!!!

I'm getting ready to go shower so I can take my mom to Aldi's today. And since I have a bunch of free cards ($15 for Best Buy, $20 for Office Max, $10-$35 off at Catherine's, etc) I might make mom stop with me at those places too. PLUS I see that Lifeway Christian Bookstore has a great sale going - lots of books for $10 and $5.00!! So for sure we're gonna stop there. What I really should be doing is shopping for new mattresses for our bed. But that just doesn't even sound like fun. So I think I'll wait a couple of weeks until Walt can go with me and do that.

Good morning yall!!!

Its been a Barb morning around here for sure too! But actually mine is just yesterday completed... My girlfriend came over last night to help me clean out my garage the original intent was just to rearrange the boxes and place them... this started at 4 yesterday afternoon.... Well I got into the garage about 430 to check on her and she had different plans... since I am unable to lift or move anything I got out there and she already had 10 boxes unpacked and in piles for me to go thru... so we went thru every box and bucket in my garage...finished doing that including a few trips to walmart for organizational stuff in the middle of the night and placing everything back and 2 trips to the laundrymat for some comforters that had gotten wet in a box and all was completed at 530 am...

Then in the midst of this my best friend and her family came down from oklahoma so we visited and they were really just here to take her son to the airport so I didnt have to entertain that much as they needed rest and so that took a load off... then when the kids got up I made breakfast and then we headed out to take my oldest 2 to a salt (student achieving leadership training) outing to the circus (they are doing this as they head all the power hours and VBS and the clowns wanted to go and get some pointers etc) and then came back long enough to see my Best friend off to the airport and now my day is all mine!!!YAY!!!!

Cut the grass this morning, had a nice conversation with a friend, fixed the master shower.

Lots of fun to be had by all!

Tomorrow after church we are going with the extended family to the Dallas Arboritum for a picnic!

Whew!!! Another task down! Me and 2 of the kids *my youngest and my nephew* have just spent the last hour we took my bed apart and put a new bedskirt on it and then we put some of those riser things you can buy for the beds under it... and now I have a place for allllllll my shoes!!!! My husband was complaining he couldnt get into the closet anymore so I went and got a unit thing for my shoes to build into the wall.. but it was too big so I just got the riser things.. put them under my bed and then the box my treadmill came in... hubby has been saving it for God knows what... so I took it and have made underbed storage out of it!!!!!!!! Its a cali king bed so plenty of room and still had room for a rolling drawer which I am putting all my sweaters I have packaged in spacebag cubes... in the rolling drawer.. WHEW!!!! Its been an awesome day I actually feel halfway organized!!!
