New Job

Mark starts his new job this morning.  It took him almost 12 hours to get there yesterday. Without the kids!  EEE GAD!  We have quite a trip ahead of us in less than two weeks.  

We still don't know where we are going to live but Mark starts going to the rentals tomorrow. We have narrowed it down via internet and email with the realtor.  Please pray he finds something so we can be together soon.  Also, we haven't had any action on our house in three weeks.  We even dropped the price. We haven't had one phone call for someone wanting to look.  I know it will all work out, but wishing it would be sooner than later.  

I am packing slowly but surely.  I look around and say, "well there isn't that much to do".  Then I start opening doors and drawer and say to myself "where did all this stuff come from?". Not sure what to pack next.  Seems this week might be toys and nonessential belongings and narrow down to what we will need for the next two weeks.   

Please continue to pray for us.  It seems like getting a job was just the beginning!

Definitely start packing everything you don't need. It is sooo worse to wait last minute. Try and ask for help because it is too overwhelming to do it alone!
God Bless

I started packing early and then thought we didn't have much to pack ahead of time. BIG mistake! I was a crazy woman the last few days. We're praying for you!

Lucky Saint Patrick's Day!

Ada you will love this... Madison loses her tooth yesterday on the way home from school.  I am so excited, I take a picture as soon as she gets out of the van and post it everywhere and email it to family.  I clean it off and put it in a zip lock (easier to find under the pillow, right?) and we tuck it under the pillow and we all, ALL fall asleep.   Madison wakes up at 5:30 AM and says to me, "I can't see if the tooth fairy left me anything". PANIC stricken.  I FORGOT THE TOOTH FAIRY JOB!  Okay this is my only job on earth.  I can't remember to exchange cash for a baby tooth. I send her to the couch and tell her it is too early that she has to try and go back to sleep.   I grab Marks elbow and he says to me, "it is only 5:30".  He was awake and heard her too.  We both lay in silence for 30 minutes hoping she falls asleep.  Funny thing is once we talked to each other thirty minutes later, both of us were in bed formulating a plan.  He wanted to sneak out our

NaNoWriMo & Supplies

What do you really need for NaNoWriMo?  I like using my Mac and Microsoft Word.  It is that plain and simple. A computer, text editing program and time will get you 50,000 words. Some people do hand write their novel during NaNoWriMo, or so I hear.  I know I will not hand write my novel. Then you have to count all those words. My fingers and hands can't do it.  It is painful to type at times but hand writing is more painful to me.  Plus, my procrastination side will never count handwritten words.  I started to write this blog many hours ago (now yesterday).  It also happens to be the weekend and my computer guy (by computer guy I mean my husband) decided to help me find some storage space on my hard drive today.  I would love a new Mac Book Pro but that is not in the budget and I really don't have time to learn a new computer days before NaNoWriMo. About a week ago I started to get start up memory warnings on my computer. Not what a girl wants to see two weeks before

Mohawk!

    Um, where to start?   I went away for the weekend with girlfriends to get some R & R and scrapbook.  Little did I know I was going to come home to a Mohawk.  GO RAYS!  I think Nathan is loving the attention that comes with such a dramatic do.   I really can't believe Mark did such a crazy thing.  I don't think anyone that saw Nathan at church could believe it either. For all you wondering, I love it and I will go away on another girls weekend.  It's not like he gave all the kids a mohawk.  The girls still have their lovely locks.
