We are through with the cemeteries, thank goodness!
I had to go to the E.R. last night, because I have been having trouble with my left leg hurting bad since Saturday. So, of course, they had to look for a blood clot, couldn't find one. PRAISE GOD! The blood test that they do for that is elevated though, so I don't know what's going on there. They did tell me that my blood glucose is up(124), so I have to really start watching that since, Diabetes runs in my family, and I was Gestational when pregnant with my son.
I am beginning to detest the Memorial Day weekend, as we have 4 different cemeteries to go to. Both National cemeteries in Leavenworth(hubby's dad is on the actual fort, my parents are across town at the other one.) One in Independence, and one in K.C. It is a hassle because we cannot do all 4 in one day, so we have to spread it out. It's a pain! Oh well, it has to be done.
I hope everyone has a safe weekend.
Just not much going on. One of my nephews graduated from High School yesterday, so I went to that. His party was on Saturday, so 2 of my kids and I went to that. My oldest step-son is having a house-warming/ birthday party on the 30th of this month. The birthday party is for his son who will be 16.
Other than that, not a whole lot going on!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE MOM'S OUT THERE!! Don't forget to call your own Mother's, if they are still with us. Mine is not. I do need to wish my mother-in-law a Happy day, though. We will call her later, as soon as the oldest step-son gets here.
It seems like a lot of people are twittering these days, and practically the whole world is either on Myspace or Facebook. I am on Facebook myself, but I am NOT on MySpace, nor do I Twitter. I really don't see what the big deal is anyway. I am only on Facebook because my son said to me" Mom, you should get on Facebook; all of your family is on there and you'll be able to keep up with what's going on with your siblings and nieces and nephews." Hence, I am on Facebook.
According to salary.com,
I make $11,958.00 a year!
Zsuzsanna's right, someone owes me a WHOLE LOT OF MONEY!!!
We had to go buy a new dryer today because ours quit drying. Found a real good one fairly reasonable at Nebraska Furniture Mart.(No, we do not live in Nebraska, we have one in Kansas that we go to.) Hubby and the 2 boys are installing it now.
My husband likes to use a dryer, I, on the other hand, like to dry my clothes outside if at all possible. But, when we had our deck built in back, one of the clothes line poles had to go, so I can no longer hang my clothes out. Of course, I never was able to because there were no lines.
Not much else going on.
Our front yard has been raked real well. We have no grass, but, it's been raked non the less. We have planted some flowers in front of the house, I can't remember all of them, but I do know we have some snapdragons and a columbine.
In the backyard, we have some herbs: Sage, Rosemary,Basil and Cilantro. I also have 2 tomato plants in the ground, a Red Beefsteak, and a Golden Yellow. And Yesterday, we bought a Japanese Red Maple tree that we got planted today.
More rain is in the forecast for tomorrow, and my kids and I are supposed to go to the ballgame tomorrow night. The Royals v. Toronto Blue Jays. My daughter entered a drawing at work and won four tickets. She works at Crown Center in the Crayola store.
My Uncle passed away Saturday night, the service is tomorrow morning. I stayed at the Lake, while my husband and 1 Sister went home yesterday, they will not be coming back for the funeral. It will be more of a celebration of Life. Thank you for the Prayers!
My Uncle is in the hospital down at the Lake of the Ozarks, he may be gone by tomorrow morning. My siblings and my husband and I will be traveling down there tomorrow. I just ask for prayer for my cousins and safe travel for all of us.
The Duggar family has announced another pregnancy, this time it is Joshua and his bride Anna who are expecting!
I wish you well!
They could not find anything wrong! PRAISE GOD!!!
You know, after got in the back and they got me hooked up to the IV, and I had time to relax, I stopped worring about it and just turned everything over to the Lord. It's all good!
I have started going to a Bible study at one of the bigger Baptist church's in the area. I had gone to it before, and quit when life got in the way.
We have a new member of the family, she is 6 weeks old, a boxer mix, and her name is Ginger!
I did get rid of the Mamma cat and her babies on Friday. They went to a non-profit organization, so I know they will NOT be killed.
Saturday night at the Easter Vigil at the church my husband and I have been going to, he was received and confirmed into the Roman Catholic church. That service was boring! For anyone raised in the Catholic church, you should know what HIGH Church means, this was NOT HIGH CHURCH! There was NO celebration. I did NOT LIKE IT!!!
P.S. I am scheduled for a colonoscopy in the morning. I DO NOT feel good about it!
Mama Cat is having her 2nd litter of kittens as I write this. I tried to get rid of them Sunday, but no one has room for them. Ironically, both sets were born on the first day of the month. The first set was born on June 1st, now this set is being born right now.
*UPDATE* There are 5 kittens in all!
I finally got to go to a Baptist church today! YEAHHHHH!!!!!! It is a Missionary Baptist, and boy was it wonderful. I just wish I could continue going there, but, alas, with only 1 vehicle, that is not to be.
I will be able to go to the church that I want to go to on Sunday! My husband has to work Sunday, so I am going to go to the Missionary Baptist Church that I was baptized in almost 27 years ago. I am so excited, I can't wait!
Thomas;aka"Fred" is 1 today!
I hope everyone has a good time today, but, PLEASE BE SAFE!
I fixed the Homeschooling sites(they were not linking)! I had done something wrong, figured it out, and it is now fixed, so you can now link to them.
As many of you know, I tried playing the Grocery Game, and it just did not work for me. But, I have found at least 2 more sites that do essentially the same thing, FOR FREE! Coupon Mom
is one of them. Becentsable
is the other one. I have already registered at Coupon mom. I guess we'll see what happens!
