Insurance adjuster finally came!!

Well, finally, after waiting for a week, the insurance adjuster finally came this afternoon. Now we have to fill out a bunch of papers, including one that lists everything that we lost, and then send it back in to him so he can do whatever it is that he has to do in order for us to get our money so we can start replacing some of this stuff! Long process!!

Our weekend was good, just hubby and I in the house. The kiddo's were at their mom's for the weekend. So now it is back to the daily grind. At least this year, we don't have to worry about trying to get kid's ready for school. The ones that count are all out, unless they're trying to get into college of some sort. We have a handicapped daughter that goes to State School and she starts next month, but with her handicap, she doesn't really learn anything at all. She doesn't have the brain function to learn. Half of her brain is normal size and the other half of her brain is about half the normal size. She had a stroke when she was 4, hence the retardation, both physical and mental. I think we still have to fill out all the paper work for school, but I don't have to do much to get her ready!

Well, I think I have to buy my daughter a pair of shoes, she ruined her last night at work. I better call her, then I NEED to go grocery shopping.

Later!

License renewed

I just got back a little bit ago from renewing my driver's license which had expired while we were on vacation.

Still no call from the insurance adjuster. Sure wish he would call soon, my daughter had some money stolen also and she wants it back so she can get her car legal. I sure would like to get my laptop replaced soon also. That would really help with my business, as I do my ordering of my product online. I am an Independent Senior Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay Cosmetics.http://www.marykay.com/roseburke. Whoever broke into our house, also stole my starter kit with all of my class supplies in it, which I am not pleased about at all. Well, maybe the adjuster will call soon, I hope.

It's HOT

Our temperature here is supposed to hit 104 with a heat index of 115 today!! That's HOT, and I don't like the humidity.

Just read Candi's blog from www.keepingthehome.com. Very interesting if you are a christian, which I hope a lot of us are. I have been a member of the Episcopal Church for 4and 1/2 years, and frankly I am getting tired of their liberal views and the direction in which the denomination is going. If any one has not been keeping up with it, our General Convention was last month, and they voted in a very liberal woman to be our next presiding Bishop. She is all for the blessing of same sex unions and for ordaining active homosexuals into the ministy. I DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS!! I have taken Candi's suggestion about reading the KJV of the Bible. I don't always get to read every day, but when I do read it, I read several chapters at a time. It is so much better than any of the other versions, although my husband prefers the NIV. I wish I could get him to go to another church, but he likes the liturgy and recieving communion every Sunday. I have told him we could go to a Catholic Church, but lately I have been wanting to go back to a conservate Baptist church, or just not go to church at all. I am beginning to not like organized religion. They all have some kind of problem to deal with, and can't seem to just trust in God's word and let the Lord direct them anymore. It is very frustrating, to say the least!!

First Blog

  • This is my blog page!
    I hope everyone likes it.
So far today I have done my dishes,and tried to mop my kitchen floor some before our insurance adjuster comes. When we were on vacation, our house was broken into and my laptop and some DVD's were stolen. I am just waiting on the adjuster to call to let me know he is on the way over to take a look at things. I still need to do some picking up.

I also just took my stepson and his girlfriend to a movie theater so they could see a movie. Neither one of them drives as yet.

I think that's all for now! Bye
