Well I am not on a role this year uh? It has been busy gutting the master bathroom. I never knew it would take so long to pick out a tile for the floor and the shower, so many decisions. I will have to post a before and after of the ugly to beautiful bathroom.
We have so many other not finished projects it boggles my mind why we started this one. DH gets a little bored and something in the house gets torn apart. I guess it gets updated every so often is the good thing.

I have one comment on the housing bail-out "WHERE IS MY BAILOUT!" We pay our mortgage on time, we did not buy more house then we could afford (we bought under!way under) we don't spend money we don't have so "WHERE IS MY BAILOUT!" Why should we pay for other peoples mistakes. I am NOT saying the people that are working 2-3 jobs, taking care of kids, lost their jobs and just can't make ends meat. Where is the moral commitment when you sign that paper. What do you think? I know of 3 people that make mistake after mistake and do not want to change their habits to make it work. SO Why should we bail them out! MOP

Just Frustrated!

Way to long!

I can't believe it has been over a month since I have been on here. I thought I would be better after the first of the year and NOPE! I will try to be better. Well since December it has been busy, but being so cold out for here we have been staying inside.
Tyler spilled some bad chemicals on his hand and it is not pretty. Jack has been sick for over a week with the flu. Let's all pray he will go to school tomorrow PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! Payton is my little social bug haven't seen him much lately. I went to family movie night at his school and he took off to be with his FRIENDS. Well I thought the FAMILY would come with me, but no they did not want to sit through Kung Fu Panda. I sat all by myself on the cold, hard gym floor all by myself eating popcorn. What a mom would do for their kids. Now tonight he is at a basketball game his friend is in.

Well I will check in tomorrow the hot tub it HOT! YIPEE!

What a last few weeks it has been from driving to dads for Thanksgiving, which my sister and I spent it in the emergency room with Nik and a cut finger. MEMORIES! Jack turned 14, then Payton turned 11. Now onto Christmas and the kids just want a TV to play their games on and not just a TV a 47" Plasma. The trampoline is going to last maybe one more day ,so that is one present since they use it everyday. The boys got a X-box 360 for their birthdays. It is so hard when they get presents just before Christmas, but my nephew has his birthday on the 24th so he really gets jipped.
We went on a dinner date with friends last night and I really did not want to go, but so glad I did we had a really good time with them all. Steve and I are really home buddies, so to go out it is a treat.

I think I will do some shopping today NOT the mall, but maybe Kohls.

Off to dads house

We are getting ready to go to Dads house for Thanksgiving and it already has been a trip. My sister called and said they could not make it until Thursday night, so dad gets his shorts in a tivey. I mentioned to make Thanksgiving on Friday and he thought I shot the bird right then and there. Well, after much thinking instead of eating in shirts when people come in we are going to eat on Friday. It is a long drive for us 16 hours just for 3 days, but I LOVE my dad and since we won't get to go for Christmas I want to see him for Thanksgiving. I have learned take any oppurtunity to see family when ever you can.

I spent the day with Kris we had a good time. I did not get to see her new house since i needed to get back to the house to pick up the boys from school. It is touch since it is a 1 hour or more depends on traffic each way.
I got a new Bind- it- all so I got some O-wire at the junkie. I only spent 19.00 I was very proud of myself. I am keeping our spending on the low before Birthdays and christmas hit.

Happy Thanksgiving see you next week.

WOW I figured it out

Yes, I can change my background. I still not sure if I like it, but let's give a day or two.
I am still working on my scrap room it is coming together slowly. I have to fight with a huge weight bench in the middle it will not fit out the doorway or it would have been out of there!
Steve is gone today so that means the boys and i will be eating out. Yeah!! no cooking. I got 2 16# turkeys yeasterday for a whooping $6.00 pays to shop at the same store all the time.

Well off to get into more stuff, fun fun!

I do miss talking to my Chi5 sistas, but I know they are busy and i am thinking of them!!

HELLO it is Friday!

I am so happy it is Friday! I am so tired by Thursday night I fall asleep on the couch at 9 pm. I painted my scraproom and now the shelves will have to go up and I can start stuffing it with my scrap stuff. I copied a scraproom that was in Keepsakes magazine. It had IKEA shelves and stuff you would use in the kitchen and it works! I am such a copy cat, but it works for me.
I got a estimate to fix our pool decking (short story DH did it!) It will be $9,000 to repair it. What do you think he will do???? Want to bet money on it :) He always has these ideas and thinks he can do it, which then in return it costs us triple to fix his mistakes! MEN!
My sister has decided to go to my dads for Thanksgiving so it will be nice to see her and the kids. Then we decided to go skiing for Christmas in January, but now the neighbors want to come too, then the other neighbor does with her 2 kids??? Steve wants to know when did this become a neighborhood get together in Denver???? Sometimes things take a hold of themselves and grow. He is not a person for crowds, especially when we have to share a bathroom with 10 other people. Again, we will see where this goes.

Off to find some studs (in the wall you dirty minds LOL)
