Thank you girls for your concern. Just when I thought I was headache free the barometric pressure changed so I am stil, dealing with stuff. It is just hard, I can't stand losing time but I am limited to what I can do.

For today:

~Dishes - done
~Need to do more laundry - done
~Wrote monthly devotional for the ladies at church - done
~Need to work on more church stuff - done
~I really need to clean out our fridge and organize it. - halfway there
~Deep clean kitchen
~More correspondence - done

~I was going to try and make soap, but I think the scent will make things worse

I'm glad that you girls are keeping busy and welcome Melissa! How awful that your vehicle kidnapped you and brought you to JoAnn's

~Sharon

Thanks Melanie! Today was a little better. School went on and on, so I wasn't all up for doing a bunch of chores. But I did begin to organize the mound of clean clothes on my floor.

The last couple of days I have been just wiped out by the time I get in with the kids and have laid down to take a 20 minute power nap. Well today's power nap turned into and hour and a half long and I was more tired after waking up than I was when I laid down. Hallie was wiped out too. She crawled up in the bed beside me and snored longer than I did. Neither one us was all too happy about getting back up. So needless to say, nothing has gotten done since we got home. I wonder if it's because of what I have been eating here lately. I've been kinda bad about the sweets and the sodas again. Aaaarrggg I have to get off of them. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.

Didn't post a list yesterday as I had company over and pretty much busted my tail early in the morning to get this place ready for guests. Then, after they were gone there wasn't much left to do, except laundry, of course. Today will not be a chore day either as we will be traveling north for a family birthday party and to bring my "new" camper home! Woohoo! I think we're going to try to go to the gym this morning before we head out though.

I told you Siobhan you have really found a thread here. People may come and go but some hang in there.
I'm still muching that is what I get for having a large yard and always adding flower beds but they look so nice. The Iris, roses and some of the shrubs are in bloom now.
Soon I can rest but when we get back home I will be in trouble once more.
Sharon I sure hope you get well soon I hope your head ackes are not food connected for some are look at your food intake and how it is put up. MSG, added red coloring are some of the biggest bad boys.
I love that name Butterscotch Grove what a nice name. Lilly

Melanie - she was too sick for school but not too sick for her cake. Hmmm....at 6 she's a might young to be wanting to get out of school enough to fake it. Oh well, it was only a half day (and since she's in part-day kindergarten that makes it like a 1/4 day) today, so she didn't miss much.

Lilly - Thanks! I named my business after the birch and cottonwoods on our property, which turn such a gorgeous color in the fall. I see you're in Williamsburg...are the red buds in bloom?

For today:
1. Doll Dress
2. Vacuum
3. Start some seeds
4. Coffee with fellow crafters at the coffee shop! Yea!
5. More studio cleaning
6. Sewing lesson for DD.

Should be a fun day! But not such a productive day! I did clean up all the leaves and debris out of two garden beds, though.

OUCH!! You all are awfully busy today!

Today I have washed a load of clothes and a load of rugs, washed the dishes, straightened the living room, baked a cake for the birthday party, did a once over clean on the bathroom. The real fun doesn't begin for another 30 minutes or so. We are having a birthday party for my oldest daughter, Caitie, who turned 13 yesterday and my nephew, Kashada, who is 10 today!

Have a great day and take it easy!

Well our birthday party is over. My fiance' has taken Caitie to spend some of her birthday money. Now I'm waiting on my friend and her son to get here. He's going to be staying with us while my friend goes to Indy to have a medical procedure done. Please keep her in your prayers while she undergoes this procedure tomorrow. There are lots of potential complications. Let's just pray that she makes it through safely and that the doctor is able to fix her ailment.

Hugs~ Melanie
