Life

Each step of life is a journey that you choose to walk.

Each moment of life is another line, sentence, paragraph and chapter of the book called your life.

Enjoy all that life has to offer, good friends, good food, good coffee and as always wisdom and a good laugh.

My Mother's Day...

was great! I am so blessed. My Mother's Day began on Saturday. My fab hubby & kids left the house around 9:30 & I rolled out of bed around 10 & I got to relax in the glorious silence. I cleaned the bathrooms & balanced the checkbook and began to read a new book.

Around 11 Mike called to let me know that all the kids wanted to go to the movies, not just the boys. So I said OK! We all went to the 1 o'clock showing of Iron Man II.
It was a good movie...a lot of action. As we were leaving...we were invited to go and see How to Train A Dragon...so we had dinner out & went back to the movies! It was so great to chill out with my family & catch a double feature! I don't think we've ever done that before.

Sunday was so nice...started w/ breakfast & presents! My kids made some gifts & bought some gifts. I now have a good camera! I'm still holding out for the 35MM style, but I love my new Nikon digital camera...How sweet! We went to church with my MIL (Mother In Law) and then home for lunch before going over to spend time with my mom! After that I took the kids over to swim at Nanny's house (MIL). I went home and relaxed for a bit before getting dinner started & just enjoyed the evening.

Now it's Monday & I am relaxed and ready for the week. I am looking forward to seeing what God has in store as I walk the path in which he has given me, content in knowing that I am His and that He will take care of me fully!

Have a wonderful & blessed day...

Following up...

from yesterday's adventures! So the car is back on the road! There was a bolt in the carburetor...glad it stopped running instead of blowing up ~ that's a praise! Also a praise is that I know of an honest mechanic...thank you Mike w/ J&J Tire...you guys are great! So, since it didn't cost me an arm & a leg to get the car running again, I was able to get new tires put on the car as well...it was on my list to get done this week & I'm so thankful that I was able to do that.

So once the car was done and I got back home...I found my most fab husband planting our newly bought peach trees! I just love it when he surprises me like that! Afterwards we reseeded the yard...so we should have some real nice grass growing in about 5 days! Afterward the storms came and we almost lost one of the trees...but I went out and added more dirt - looks like it held.

With all that I forgot to pull out dinner...so...we went to Cracker Barrel for dinner...love breakfast for dinner! Over all...it was a very good day & I'm so thankful for all that happen even if I didn't understand it all.

My car...

must be really mad at me!!! So today started off normal enough...I went to bed early & did not want to get up this morning...as usual...got ready for work...prayed...drank coffee... and got the kids ready for the bus...THE BUS...

The bus has been late for several days...which is becoming an issue all on it's own...well today I decided that I would take the kids to school and drop them off (EARLY) and then get to work on time...the reason...because yesterday they did not get to school until 8AM!

Well...that was the plan, but it did not happen...half way to school my car decided that it would shut down...and it did!! Teaching lesson of the day...DON'T PANIC & DON'T STRESS! So I showed Logan how to use the ER Brake. He asked about it just 2 days ago...how ironic!

I then called the towing co & my friend to get the kids...so the kids got to school on time & the tow co. got me to the garage...and come to find out it was my carburetor...it came loose and some derby got in. Smart car...shut itself down! I'm thankful that it did not happen on the bridge!

So now I'm waiting for my tires. I figured they have my car there...might as well get new tires! Fun stuff :-) So there you have it...my Tuesday adventure!

~Peace & Blessings~
