Sunday

This day started on a sad note. Hubby got on a plane and left :( He is in New Orleans for the week. I told him... sorry, no fresh fish for you! :( I don't like it when he is gone!!  But, the rest of the day was pretty decent! I got to help with a friends baby shower. She is going to have her baby on Wed. That makes me excited! :D  I went to the store to get the stuff for the shower (cake... gifts....) While I was checking out, the lady asked if I was having a party.. I said ya a baby shower!! He will be born on Wed... she proceeded to ask me if it was my first!!????? So... Not that I didn't know already... but, I decided I NEED to loose weight. So, I have set myself a goal. 20 pounds by Aug. 6. That is 2 months. I am praying that God will decide that it is something that he can bless me with. I need to loose 100 but 20 is a good start!!!  Anyway, here we go!
Thank you God for this Sunday. Thank you for friends to spend an afternoon with. Thank you for my boys, that I can trust home alone. Thank you for the blessing of food. Thank you for your faithfulness to help us in our ongoing striving to not sin. Thank you for even caring about my desire to not be gluttonous any more!

A week in review

So, this has been a pretty good week! All in all that is. Had lots of family here last weekend for Erin's wedding!! That was fabulous!!! I LOVED having my sisters and brothers here!!!!  Made me so happy! It was also very nice to have my hubby home for 4 days. The family all went home on Monday. That was a nice restful day. I didn't want the family to go home.. but it was a nice day. The rest of the week has been pretty normal. Ethan started his college classes. That was fun. He is really enjoying it. Especially his drama class. He said it is like grown ups playing and it is what they are supposed to do! hehe He is really enjoying logic so far too. He says both the teachers are nice and he has enjoyed being around other people.
Now I just have to get our school ordered for our new school year. I don't like to take too long off. I have never done a 3 month summer break. I am not planning on starting now! :D  If I take too long of a break, I have a hard time getting back into it. I like being able to take weeks off here and there and not have to worry about it. Plus, I want to get used to the new "normal" of school.. our regular work along with Ethan's extra classes.
Hubby leaves town tomorrow for a week. I am going to make the kids help me with some big stuff while he is gone. I am hoping to get some painting done.. before the end of June I want to have the downstiars painted and the carpets cleaned. HA! dream on! hehe So, there is the update! Goodnight!!!
