Not my week

Its not been a week that I really want to talk about. Just the normal cleaning. Been depressed and see no way out. Thats all I have to say.

This Weekend

Yesterday turned out to be a busy day. My brother inlaw came over and my HB and him worked on one of my cars and sons truck. Then my other brother inlaw came over and talked business. Then while the two worked own my car, my son and I left with the last brother inlaw and went to my sisters house. From there my sister, her daughter and I went to the movies. We seen The Heartbreak Kid, it was a cute movie, we really enjoyed it. Then after the movie we went back to her house and my HB came and picked my son and I up. We stayed there for a few hours and then came home.

Today is race day and the day my HB leaves and goes back to the apt. I'm thinking that D and I might go with my sister and her kids to a haunted house after my HB leaves. Not sure yet on that. Its a 2 story house, 8,000 sq feet. My sister and I don't go through them so we will watch a movie while we wait for the kids...lol

So Boring

My life seems to be so boring, there is nothing new to tell....lol

My sister inlaw that had open heart surgery is doing wonderful.

My car (Rivie) has new tires on it and is ready to be driven.

My daughter is coming to terms with me not wanting 100 phone calls a day from her.

My son is doing good in school so far.

My other son is still sleeping on my sofa...lol

My DH is still living in another town during the week and home on weekends.

Nothing is broken in the house as of today...lol

Same ole thing

Well nothing really new is going on. Same things just different days. Had a pretty busy week last week, mainly cleaning. Hubby came home Friday night and Sat. morning got up to work on his truck. The water pump went out on him. He managed to get it done just in time to go to my cousin's daughters wedding. Had a very nice time there. It is always wonderful to see my cousins. We all just never get to see each other much through out the year. Sat. was race day, but I did get a few things done before the race started. Hubby took off Sunday night for his weekday home.

My son bought a car Sat. and he got it all licensed and insured yesterday. But it needs a few things taken care of before he can drive it. So for now, he will use my hubby's truck that just got the new water pump. My son's truck isn't work either...lolol

Yesterday my son took his cat in to get fixed and declawed. It is going to feel wonderful not to get all scratched up anymore. Matter of fact, he is on his way to pick him up right now.

As for the rest of the week, I really don't have much plans. Laundry got done yesterday so maybe I'll start going through the clothes that I want to give to the "Planted Live" drop off box.

Here we go again

So for 2 mornings in a row D was late for school. Its been a pain in the butt on a ride to school this year so far. He over slept 2 mornings in a row. Yesterday he asked his brother to take him and his brother told him no and to walk AND not to wake me up. Which this has made me mad. This morning he woke me up 3 minutes before school started. So, for not being late at all since school started he has gotten 2 days in a row down. School is about 2 miles away from my house. This kind of set me off in a not so good mood. Plus on top of it all, I came downstairs and it smells like Chris' cat has been spraying in my house. He hasn't been fixed yet and that better happen really really soon.

This week hasn't been a very busy week, just went grocery shopping and that's about it. Spent some time at my sister in-laws house yesterday because 2 of her dogs got into a fight and landed one at the vets in pretty bad shape. Then last night I went to my sisters to see my nephews senior pictures proofs. He took some really good pictures. I'm not doing D's pictures yet till I know he is going to graduate. Like in the spring...lol

It took awhile

Finally I decided it was time to put the pictures I took at my parents anniversary party on my computer and I'm very disappointed. I hardly took anything. I never took a picture of what all the decorations looked like. I didn't take pictures of my most of my family. I guess I just wasn't thinking very well. I will have to get pictures from both my sisters if they have some good ones. I don't even like half the ones I did take. Nicole didn't take her camera because her memory card was full so I won't be getting any from her. Bummer

Its Over

I'm so glad my parents 50th wedding anniversary is over. It was stressful and draining. It did turn out very nice though. Everyone seem to enjoy themselves. But, everyone left way to early, we had music for dancing if people wanted too, but in the end it turned out to be my family and both my sisters families was all that was left. So since we had the hall for the whole weekend and stayed till 10:30 dancing up a storm...lol. We all had a great time together. We cleaned up almost all of it before we left but decided to keep all the food there in the fridge and pick it up the next day. So in the morning we all headed over there to do the last minute cleaning, grabbed all the food that was left and took it all over to my parents house for an afternoon meal. Then we divided it all up from there.

Yesterday I took the key back for the hall and came home and did nothing. I napped off and on, played on the computer and that was about it. I don't seem to have anymore energy today then I did yesterday...lol But at some point and time I need to clean this house. We have another 50th wedding anniversary to go to this weekend. Man, that makes 3 of this year and some that will be coming up next year along with the 8 graduation parties.

I haven't made it to the apt yet. I have stuff that I got in FL that needs to go over there. I'm hoping to take a weekend at the end of the month. The car dying almost 2 weeks ago put me alittle behind of things that needed to get done and one of the things was go to the apt over the weekend. In the 2 1/2 weeks I have been home from FL, my car died, the toilet wouldn't flush, water wouldn't go down in the tub. Once the car was fixed (fuel pump) the oil light came on, I gave it a drink of oil..lol, something else happened, I can't remember and my internet modem stopped working. I had to take it in the cable company and pick up a new one. Then it wouldn't work so I had to call and have the tech guy help me with it. So, its been a crazy few weeks.

Life is Crazy

Things sure have been crazy in my life in the last week. Last Wednesday evening I went out to my car to take pictures over to my sister for my parents anniversary party and wouldn't you know it, it wouldn't start. After several people looking at it, we figured it was a bad fuel pump. So, I got stuck here with no car till Friday night. Saturday morning my new fuel pump got here and was put in the car. Started right up. So, I go on my way to a party Saturday night, all is well. Didn't go anywhere Sunday. Monday morning I took D out to lunch since I couldn't give him any lunch money till I went to the bank. But before I met up with D I took a shower and ended up standing in water. Then I noticed the toilet wasn't going down. Oh great now what. I didn't have time to deal with it just then. After lunch I headed over to my sisters house and the oil light came on just before I got in her driveway. So after checking the oil, I find that I needed not just 1 qt, but needed 3 qts of oil. So, got that taken care of, all is well, so I think. D trys the toilet when he got home from school, it started going down but very strangely. Still no time to deal with it. We had to be to Nicole's for dinner and then I had to head back to my sisters for more anniversary stuff. So, this morning, the toilet is going down after a bunch of plunging, but still not just right. Still no time to deal with such things because it is Nicole's 23rd birthday and we were going out to buy her a gift for her apt. Ok, while gone I realized that my gas gauge has not moved at all since the new fuel pump, toilet still isn't working. Are you getting the point to my crazy life since last week. I'm not getting into this hubby working out of town during the week and only home on weekends. All things go to pot while he is gone and at the beginning of the week...lol. As it was, my brother inlaw had to fix my car.

I woke up today, so life is good. The rest has all gone to pot. So, don't ask me how I feel, you might get an ear full.

Now what?

I'm home and find so much to do but yet I just don't feel like doing anything. Its to hot and to hot in other ways...lol

I know there is so much to be thankful for in my life and at the same time I have so much out of control things. Right now the biggest thing is my car. It died last night, no gas going to the motor. Why can't these things happen on the weekend when hubby is home to fix them???? So, I get to wait till he comes home this weekend to look at it. I so needed to go grocery shopping today, but I guess we can eat soup or something for dinner...lol. Its just me and D here till this weekend.

I got my hair cut short this week. The way they styled it is cute but something I won't be doing every day. I'm the lazy kind of person when it comes to my hair. I just want to wash it and go. But now that it is this short, it isn't working out like I had hoped. The reason I got most of it cut off was because the hair was all dead and straw like feeling. Its been a long long time since its been cut. We will see how this goes. Maybe I should have waited until after my parents 50th anniversary party which is the 15th of this month.....lolol

School has started, so now the other stress begins. I'm sure I will be complaining about it real soon. Like, D, will you please say in your afternoon classes?????? lolol

I'm Home

I'm home now. Its been a tiring few days. Come Tuesday when school starts things will settle down again. I hope..lol

Almost Time

I can't believe it is almost time for me to take Auntie back down to FL. I leave next Wed (Aug. 15th) and fly home on Aug. 30th.

There is so much that I have to do yet and so little time. I've been down at the apt. this week and will go back home tomorrow. But a much better week for it was at a much slower pace.

Hubby and I took the boys to the movies Wed. night. Was a pretty good movie, alittle to fast pace with the camera for my likings.

Well if you don't hear from me for awhile, you will now know why. Everyone have a great Aug.

For The Last Week

Well the weekend for the race was a long weekend that turned into one long week. It was wonderful to see one of our friends, but the race, thats a whole different story. I can say I have been to the Brickyard, but as for going back to that track, I don't think so. One of the stupidest set ups I've seen yet. So this is how the last week went.

Friday: Come home from apt. go to my sisters 40th birthday party.

Saturday: Meet sisters in the morning, come home and drive back to the apt. shower and head for IN to friends house. Get there around 8:30pm

Sunday: Go to the race, drive back to the apt.

Monday: Get up and drive back home, rest the rest of the day.

Tuesday: Get up and go to my parents house to visit, pick up the slides pictures and the machine to view them from. Go to sisters to go over the pictures but the light bulb didn't work. Had to order one, sister and I go back to parents house to see if there is a bulb in one of the other machines, yes find one, go back to sisters, start looking over pictures. Went through half the reels before going home in the evening. Oh, started calling halls to rent for the party.

Wed: Get up, go to parents to help mom with vcr/dvd player that I connected the day before. Head back to sisters to go through the rest of the slides. Have 134 slides picked out to make into pictures. Didn't get home again till evening.

Thurs: Finally cleaned up the house, went to the store to start on the school clothes shopping. Went and paid on the hall we decided to get.

Fri: Get up and started packing up the rest of Nicole's bedroom and putting her crap in the closet. Got out some of my workout stuff, set up to use. Went back to the store, needed pants for dinner plans I had in the evening with 3 of my girlfriends. We go every year for our birthdays (all in July).

Sat: Meet sisters again to go over the food list. Went shopping for prices, have that all taken care of. Picked up a few things here and there for the party. Took the slides in to get the pictures made. Went back to sisters house and my nephew put some movies and games on my ipod for me so I have something to do when I fly back home from FL. Never got home till 9pm.

Sunday: Went to Aunties house for a visit, came home packed my stuff up to go to the apt for the week, cleaned up some last minute things in the house.

Monday: Went to the doctors at 7:15am and drove back down to the apt.

So that is what the last week has looked like. I leave for FL a week from tomorrow, so this is the last week to spend time with hubby and boys. Not sure what day, but we are going to the movies one day this week. I will leave for FL on the 15th and fly home on the 30th of Aug.

This Week

Its been a very long week. I am under the weather with a nasty cold. But on the brighter side, I get to go to a Nascar race in IN, the brickyard on Sunday. I just love getting free tickets plus we have some friends that live about 10-15 minutes from the track, so we are going to their house sat night. So for today I have been cleaning the apt and will leave for home tonight. I have a meeting with my sisters for my parents 50th wedding anniversary on Sat. then I'll drive back to the apt and head to IN from here.

I'll let everyone know how it goes.

Have a great weekend!

Long Day

Man it was a long day today. Nicole and I got up and didn't take us long to be out the door for a day of shopping. Now some of you already know that I hate to shop, so it felt longer then it was in the end...lol She had plans of going to 2 different malls. One is here in town and the other is about 20 or so minutes away. We went to the one that was 20 minutes away first. We did find a few things but that mall was a big waste of gas. It was a nothing mall....lol. So we head back into town, go to the mall here and find a few more things. By the time I got home I was tired of walking, hungry and needed a nap. Ok, so I didn't eat anything and I didn't get a nap in either...lolol. We watched some tv and then Nicole decides that she is going to paint my toe nails and then she goes to the fingers. Mind you, Nicole don't like feet at all, don't touch them and don't touch her...lol. So to my surprise she touched my toes and painted them...lol

I didn't get my sewing started yet, but maybe I can do some tomorrow, at least cut them out and have them ready for sewing.

Poor Girl

I feel so bad for Nicole, she took a bad week off from work. She is on vacation with us and wouldn't you know it, its the first week that it has rain in the forecast for 4 out of 5 days since I've been coming down here. Really her vacation is 5 days off. Yesterday we waited for the rain and thought any minute now it was going to start because it was so cloudy and rain was in the forecast for all day. By 6-7 pm the sun was out, never rained here. Bummer, wasted a day! So I wake up this morning, its pouring out and she wants to go to the mall that is about 20 or so minutes away. I hate going to the mall, I hate shopping in the first place....lol

D went home with Chris last night and is coming back tomorrow morning for my Birthday Day. Chris is going to spend the night tomorrow so he can spend the evening with me...lol. So the whole family will be together.

I need to get my seat cushions done for the dinning room chairs and make the bread that I didn't do yesterday...lol Sometime this week I will tho.

I'm not sure I'm even going back home this weekend. I really don't see the need to. Nothing is going on there and the following two weekends we have a few parties to go to, so is a must then. Why waste the gas.

Hump Day!!

I'm still at the apt. I didn't have to go home yesterday after all. I will leave Friday morning for the weekend. I will run out of pills by then so it is a must that I leave. N has a doctors appt. Friday and she wants me to go with her. Sears is coming on Sat. to take a last look at my washer before the warranty runs out. So that is the plans for the weekend. Then Sunday we come back to the apt. and N will come down here after she gets out of work to spend her week vacation here with us. Of course there are malls she wants to go to, do some fishing and just relax...lol

There isn't much to do the rest of the week. I have done all the cleaning that needs to be done in this small apt. So it is play time, computer, reading, what ever I want....lol

Apartment Again

Just thought I'd let anyone know that I made it safe and sound back at the apt. again. Now that I have a computer here, I will be able to write me.

Now you see me, now you don't

I'm home for a short spell. Have a party to go to for my sister in-law becoming a citizen of the US today.

Not much going on down at the apts. But I do have a new toy down there. I have a new computer so I can finally go online, yay!! The only other thing we need is a bed, still sleeping on the air mattress. That will be fine for now. So this weeks take back down there will be a very very old rocking chair that I got from my grandma. Its been in storage in a junk room for years. Thought it would be nice to put in the bedroom to sit on and watch tv instead of laying down.

Besides going to the party, Dh and Chris have to work on DH's truck, the brake line rusted out and part of it was replaced last week. But on the way to work yesterday morning the brakes went out on it while Chris was driving it, so somewhere else must be rusted. Plus they are going to work on Chris' truck, it would like to work on 8 cylinders instead of 7....lolol, so new plugs, wires and what ever else goes with it will be in done today too.

As for me, I don't have alot to do today, while Chris was home from work yesterday and his truck keys locked in my computer room, he decided to clean the house and cut the grass. So play time for me...lol Maybe I COULD throw in a load of laundry....lol

Hello

I'm home for a week as of right now. I have mixed feelings about being here. Nice to be home but I don't want all the cleaning that comes with it. I seen that no one did any of it while I was gone to DH's apt. So, I will leave it like it is till monday, then DH and son Chris will go to the apt for the week. That only leaves me with D here and I'm sure he will be gone enough. It needs such a good top cleaning and deep cleaning after that...lol But as I look around, I just don't know where to start. Sometimes I feel like just running out the door and never come back. I don't feel like this is my job to do anymore. I leave a house, I'm not in it for a week, there is only ONE kid here and he is old enough to pick up after himself. My daughter brought D home on thurs morning so I'm sure he as alittle bit of a mess in here. But I sure didn't make none of it, why do I have to clean it...lol

Ok enough on that, I just wanted to make sure everyone knew I was home now.

Well

Well I was home for a short amount of time...lol. I spent all last week down at DH's apt and came home this weekend. We had my nieces graduation party to go to today and then off to my parents for Father's Day tomorrow. My nieces party went really well, then we went to the after party which is usually a few beers and bomb fire. Didn't get home till after 2pm. Then I thought I better cut up the potatoes for the salad so in the morning is all I have to do is cook them. The eggs are cooked and ready to go so it won't take me long to do it. Then tomorrow night we are heading back to the apt in the evening for another week.

I still haven't figured out what I'm going to do about computer Internet there. I have the same server there is here but the cable TV part comes with the apt free. So, I thought maybe since they are the same that I would take the old computer down there this week and see if it will work or not. If not then I guess I will look for a laptop the following week since I'll be home all week long.

My sisters exchange student will be leaving on the 30Th and she is having a going away party on the 26Th so that is why I'll be home. This is all going to be interesting.

I just wanted to make sure everyone knows what is going on in my life. I'm very bored down there with no computer. The library doesn't let me do a lot, just check my email and surf the web, that's about it. No instant messaging at all. Got to get that figured out and soon. There is so much you can clean and I get tired of making the doilies. I need to look for a TV for in the bedroom so there are other TV shows that each of us can watch instead of figuring out who gets to watch which show and who gets to miss out. D has his own in his room and the other one is in the livingroom.

Take care to all!!

Going Out Of Town

Going out of town again with no computer. Will be back in 8 days.

I'm Home

Happy Birthday Deana!!

I'm finally home from FL. Just in time for the last day of school for D. Now the fun begins with going back and forth from here and hubby's apt. I thought maybe I'd go tomorrow but my niece graduates from 8th grade on Wed. and I have a dentist appt. on Thurs. So I guess I'm in town for a few days. I also figured I'd better spend some time with Nicole so she don't go to ballistic....lol The weather was nice in FL, in the upper 80's, no rain. The drive home went well, had a lot of road construction. Almost all the way through TN on I-75. We also got into the wild fires, well, not seen the fires but drove through the smoke from them for about 100 or so miles in the upper FL and GA.

I came home to a house that was trashed, go figure since no one was really suppose to be here except to come back after school to feed the dog and wait for Nicole to pick him up after work. But Chris ended up here doing laundry and staying the night and he don't like to pick up after himself to much either. And of course D made his own messes....lol. So today was suppose to be cleaning day and laundry but the nascar race got rained out yesterday and is on today...lololol Nicole hasn't gotten all her stuff moved out yet. So I started packing up misc. stuff yesterday for her to take or me take over to her apt. I wanted her room cleaned out before I got home but I see that never happened.

So, that's about it for now

For Deana

I have to write on my blog because Miss Deana says it has been to long...lol. But really I couldn't help that, I have been down at my hubbies apt. just got home yesterday for a dentist appt. for D and me. So, I'm home, tick free, not that I didn't have any crawling on me after my walk, and one crawling around on the carpet in the apt. I've never had to deal with ticks where I live. Only if I went down to the southern state of the USA. I'm thinking, hello, this apt. is only 2 1/2 hours from here, I don't have them here, I shouldn't have them there....lolol

So anyways, I leave for FL a week from today, there is so much to do, so little time. I haven't even started thinking about what to pack, what I have to buy. Bills that need to be paid first, food for the weekend here, food at Nicole's place since D will be staying with her during the week, home with dad on the weekends....lol, One week, that's all I have. Plus, I'm making my Mom doilies for Mother's Day, so I have to work on them too. Clean the house and make time for computer fun since I don't have a computer at the apt. as of yet.

So, that's all that is going on here. I hope your happy now Miss Deana...lol

Going Away

No blog updates till Thurs. Going down to DH's apt.

So much

I have so much going on in my life these days that I'm not really sure if I'm coming or going. I can't even remember what I have or have not posted. So, I guess if I repeat myself, oh well. My DH is now out of a hotel and into his own apt about 2 1/2 hours from here where he works. Still coming home on the weekends. D and I have been down there setting up house last weekend and I plan on going back down there this week until Wed. There are more big furniture that has to go down there. So as we are trying to do this, Nicole got herself an apt uptown and will be moving into that sometime this week. My niece found a sofabed and loveseat at a yard sale yesterday for 100.00 and picked that up for her. Which of course I paid for...lol. She will be paying me back alittle at a time. My niece also had a set of 3 lamps and 2 end table that she is giving Nicole. I went out the day before and bought 100.00 worth of kitchen stuff for her as a house warming gift. So she is feeling much better about moving out. She really had nothing in the way of things for the kitchen and now at least has something to cook in and something to eat off of...lol

This week I also came to the realization that we will not be able to afford to go to Minnesota for my other nieces wedding. I'm so disappointed, we so wanted to be there. But with all the rest of the stuff going on for those two apts, plus my whole downstairs is all tore apart, needing a new stove, dishwasher, bathtub, front window and door. Then there is my parents 50th wedding anniversary party that us girls are giving them in Sept. A trip to Minn. with the gas prices the way they are, food, hotels we are looking at close to 1000.00. Money I just don't have. Plus my DH probably couldn't get time off. Even if he did, that would be a few days off without pay. Just can't do it.

With all this going on, I leave for FL on the 17th. I'm have not started getting out a thing yet. I'm so not ready....lol. So after I come back next week I will have to local the containers that have my summer clothes and go through them, see what still fits and what I will need to go buy, like shorts...lol I have put on a few pounds over the winter.

So, that's about it for my busy life. There, hope your happy Miss Deana...lol
