I am finding it nearly impossible to update lately. Mike keeps me busy 24/7. And he has been supper cranky lately, but I think today we found out why. The past 3 days he has had bad gas, he farts a lot and it hurts him, well today around 2pm, he pooped and I mean POOPED! It was all the way up to his shoulder bones, he was covered in it. I had to give him a bath to clean him. Then when I took him out he got mad because he loves his baths now. He is in his bouncy seat right now and he is fussing but it’s because he is really tired and refuses to sleep. We where outside for over an hour and he just loves it out there. My sister Lori (the mother to the 4 kids we watched last week) brought Mikey over to gifts that she got at the mall of America, she got him Ty huggypup, it is a soft dog stuffed animal with a rattle in it and she got him a fisher price cement mixer, he was talking to that earlier. Oh and she also gave him a tigger book, a pooh book and a play telephone.

Three days ago Mikey discovered how to make a noise with his mouth/lips and he does it non stop now, it is very cute but he soaks his bibs fast by doing it.

We have to take him to Syracuse Monday for his reflux and I hope they weigh him and measure him. Well I have to call first thing Monday morning and his doctor doesn’t have to go to jury duty then we go but if she has to go then they reschedule.

I am liking my lap top but I am still learning new things on it. I need to call the phone company next week and see if we can get wireless here, that would be nice.

Mike is so busy in the garage, people just keep dropping of vehicles every day for him to work on and with his broken finger it’s hard to work on them but he is doing it. I think tonight he won’t be in till later, he wants to get as much done as he can. Mikey and I go out quite often and say hi and he plays with Mike for a little bit. Last night around 7pm Mikey was sleeping for about 5 minutes and he woke up SCREAMING very badly, I tried everything nothing was working, so I called Mike in and he tried we just couldn’t calm him down. Finally I took him his room laid him on his changing table and took all of his clothes off, he was still not happy, Mike kept playing a this singing bunny and pig that Mikey has and between them and us we finally got him calm after an hour. He loves having his toes played with.
My sister got her modular home yesterday, she can’t move in until May 11th though, she showed the inside to me today, it is really nice.

I can’t believe mothers day is in 2 weeks and 2 days. I have no idea what we are getting my mom, I am having a coffee mug mad with Mikey’s picture on it, it will be done May 9th, I am hoping it turns out. Okay I have to Mikey woke back up he sleep for a total of 10 minutes. Hope everyone is doing well and that they have a wonderful weekend. Oh and Mikey will be 20 weeks tomorrow, wow how time fly's. (When I was pregnant I swear weeks would never come and now they fly)

Mikey’s rash is almost completely healed up now, that cream works fast. He is doing very well although he still does not want mommy and daddy to sleep at night. Last night I feed him at11pm, 4 oz and laid him on the pack n play, then at 1:30am, I got him up, changed his diaper and feed him another 4oz. Then I put him in his swing (we are trying to se if that will help his sleep) It didn’t work so well, nothing does he is up every 1 ½ hour to 2 hours, I just wish he would sleep for 4 hours. But we still love him and he makes the funniest faces and sounds they make you laugh.

I do not know what has gotten into my husband these past few days, he can’t keep his hands off from me, always hugging, kissing or holding onto me. He will be out working and come inside to hug me or something like that. Like today I was getting ready to go down town and before I left we made out. Not that I am complaining, I am loving it. Very loving and romantic. I now even have a hickie on my neck which I haven’t had one of those in years. I can’t wait till I am all healed up and can resume activity’s. A friend of mine who I want and see today told me it took her 8-10 weeks before she could have sex again and she has 3 kids and it was that long for each one.

Did anyone hear about the 3 month old baby boy who died? Apparently the mother left her 3 month and 3 year old son with her boyfriend of 2 months (he is not the father to either kid) The baby started crying, so he pick him up and just kept shaking him, then the baby stopped breathing and was turning blue, so he took him to the neighbors who was a nurse, CPR was preformed and 911 was called. The baby was air lifted to Albany in critical condition with no brain activity, he died yesterday. How could any one do such a horrible thing, that poor innocent baby did nothing to deserve that. All the boy got was manslaughter, he should be killed.

Anyways it has been a busy tiring day today. A show that we watch (Nashville Star) premieres tonight at 10pm, I can’t wait. Well I guess I am going to go and check on Mikey he is sleeping right now.

I woke up yesterday morning to discover a foot of snow on the ground, school was on a 2 hour delay. But Mikey had a doctors appt. and I didn’t want to cancel. Mike wanted me to but it started looking better out so he said go ahead and go. So while I got me and Mikey ready Mike cleaned my jeep off and got it warm and off we went (my mom went with me because Mike needed to start working again) So as we were about ½ hour away from home and ½ hour away from the doctors and started snowing like crazy and windy, so I told my self I would drive for 10 more minutes and if it was still bad we where coming home. Well it got complete better, they had no snow in Carthage (where the doctors is). I ended up being 15 minutes late but I called them before I left home and told them I would be a little late. Anyways they called us in and weighed and looked at Mikey. He now weighs 8lbs 9 1/2oz and was one month old yesterday at birth he weighed 7lb 5 3/4oz so he is gaining. Anyways they gave me a prescription for this good stuff for a rash because his is spreading. So then we left, I called Mike told him about his appt. and asked how the weather was, he said it was snowing really bad but since it was nice in Carthage I could go grocery shopping. But first we went to sub way for lunch, then to Aldi’s and then to wal-mart and then we came home. Then after I put all the groceries away, got Mikey to sleep I made supper. Then around 8pm we decided to go to Mike’s brothers house. While we where there I fixed their computer for them. Well we where there till midnight, came home and I changed Mikey, feed him and out him to bed. Meanwhile my husband was being really romantic and I was in the mood, we made out for quite awhile then Mikey woke up around 1:30am, so I took care of him and got him back to sleep and Mike and I continued and I thought it has been 31 days since I had Mikey, we should be able to have sex, well I was wrong. We no more then started and it hurt so we just made out. But I guess it was a good thing because we had no birth control. We had an awful night with Mikey though, he kept waking up, every ½ hour to 45 minutes, I even tried putting him into bed with us. Mike and I are both really tired this morning.

I really like this side of my husband he is being really romantic lately, I mean way more then before. I took a picture of Mikey put it in a boy picture frame (on my hallmark disk) and wrote Daddy’s little boy on the top, printed it and put it in a picture frame. Now I am working on one for me that will say Mommy’s little Angel, but I need another picture of him and he is asleep right now.

He is usually a happy baby in the morning, so I will lay him in his crib turn on his music toy and I hop in the shower. This morning he even let me start laundry, make our bed, get ready and vacuum before he got upset. Okay I need to go make lunch and bottles now, hope everyone has a good day.

Oh yes I was told my different people they would put baby cereal in their baby’s bottles to make them sleep longer, is this true and at what age?

Finally Mikey is sleeping. I have been up all night with him, plus all day today. He was just cranky and did not want to go to sleep and he didn’t want anything either. I felt bad for him. And now that he is sleeping, I can get some things done. Mike told me to nap but there is way to much to be done. His hospital pictures finally came today in the mail, he has changed since his pictures where taken.

Yesterday we went to the city, Mike needed some things for the shop, we wanted to check on the aqua star hot water on demand heaters and get my vacuum cleaner. That was my other Christmas gift. It is really cool, sucks a lot better then my other one. So now I am waiting for Mike to take out all the Christmas decorations, so I can shampoo the carpets, I want to try out my new steam cleaner. It will be a bit before I try my new mixer because we have so much junk food right now, everyone baked for the holidays and shared with us. Last night around 10pm, I started packing up all the Christmas decorations, we bought two 30 galloon totes and I filled them and could of used another two.

Christmas went very well for us, it seemed nice having Mikey. He sat on my lap while we opened gifts and Kristi video cam it, so I will have to show him later on in life. He got lots of gifts and not just from us, from everyone. Kristi liked her gifts as well and so did everyone else. I now have two decent coats, my mom got me 2. I needed a new one, the one I had been wearing I have had for 4 years and it was old and getting holes in it everywhere.

My new year plan is to loose weight and a lot of it, I just hope I can. I plan on taking Mikey for lots of walks this summer.

Mikey is getting bigger and bigger everyday. He smiles quite often and makes the cutest faces. He is not a sleeper at night and Mike needs his sleep because he has to work to make money for us, so I am the one getting up with him every night. I am hoping he will sleep good for me tonight. He still can only wear one piece outfits, I tried and put pants on him today and they fall right off the poor little guy. I am also having this problem wear he keeps peeing all over him self, I can change him, put a diaper on as tight as it can without hurting him and he still manages to pee all over, so I am doing laundry everyday. Does anyone else have this problem with their son? I am also having trouble not finding time to cook meals for supper.
Okay that’s it for now, I have to go to the bathroom and Mikey will be waking soon I am sure. Hope everyone had a good Christmas.

So this afternoon after lunch, I started digging out some of my Christmas decorations that where in the house and putting them up. Not a lot cause most of my things are in the trailer box. But I did put out my new Tigger, Pooh and Eeyore sleigh that sings, Mr. & Mrs. Santa clause, they each rock and sing a song and my bear tea light candle holder. Everything so far has been put in the living room. I so can not wait to completely decorate, I love decorating for Christmas, my favorite holiday. Usually I decorate our coat room/computer room, it’s the room you walk into when you come inside our home and the living room gets it also. Sometimes I well hand lights and garland up in the bathroom and around the dinning room and kitchen. I did hand a Santa in Mikey’s room today. It’s a small stuffed one. After I got done, I decided I am tired and sore, so I went in our bedroom and laid on the sleeping pad and took a nap, all though the telephone kept ringing, but I think I managed to get a hour nap all together. Last night I couldn’t fall asleep until after 3am, I watched movie after movie. Around 2am my stomach was growling big time, so I ate a very small candy bar and that shut that up, then Shiloh wouldn’t move and I couldn’t get comfy, my back hurt and Mike started snoring. Well the snoring didn’t last long, I made him stop. So needless to say I did not get much sleep and I needed a nap today.

We also found out that Kristi is staying the night Monday night with us and will be here till Mike goes to work on Tuesday for her 18th birthday. I hope things go well, she hasn’t stayed with us since the end of 2002.

Tomorrow I am not sure what I am doing, I have my cousins first birthday party, but I don’t know if I want to go. I probably will but I guess I see how I feel in the morning, my niece’s got cancelled until next Saturday for now, I guess. And then Sunday I have one to go to at 3pm, as long as Mike is in the garage working then I will probably attend them both, but if he is not and wants to spend time with me, well then that’s what I will do.

Mikey has finally calmed down, these past 2 nights, he has kicked and kicked non stop for HOURS and HOURS! To the point where they hurt and where getting annoying. I mean I love feeling him move and knowing he is okay but after the 5th hour of a non stop movement, my insides where hurting. Anyways I really can’t wait to hold him and know everything is okay. But it will be a while I am afraid he is just not ready to enter this world.

Last night was Mike’s work Christmas party, I no they forgot to book the Elk’s so they had to have it in January. So we got dresses up and went to it, hung out for a little while. The drinks where really expensive though, so we didn’t by many at that price. Had a good dinner and visited with friends. That morning we went and picked Kristi up, took her and showed her our camp, then we went to my father in laws house and he got to see Kristi. We stayed they for an hour or so and then we went to Jreck subs for lunch, yummy! After wards we shopped around, then came home. We played cards and things.

Today has been a crappy day outside, Mike has been working on the house and I have been cleaning, going through VCR tapes, old clothes, things we don’t use and things like that. Plus gave the dog a bath, which he did not want and jumped on me. Made a big mess, but now he is all white, fluffy and smells better now. Now I am cooking supper, pork steak, baked potatoes and corn. It seems like Saturday to me, since mike had yesterday off. But his mill shut down, 3 times a year it has to shut down. Tomorrow I am going to make a big breakfast, I think my parents are coming over. My mother in law came over today and checked out the work that Mike is doing, she really liked it.

It is very slipper out side, can’t hardly walk out to do anything. My mom went to Sears yesterday and got my curtains for the bedroom, we have 3 windows and that is not cheap, but Sears had a better price then Wal-Mart, shocked me but they did. Good news is Wal-Mart will be opening in my neck of the woods, only 25 miles from here on Monday, their grand opening is Wed. yeah. Before we would have to drive 50-60 miles to go to Wal-Mart, not no more. So excited. I am freezing right now, so I think I’m going to get off the computer and go warm up.

I was sick yesterday, but feeling a lot better today. I have been having headaches lately non stop, wake up with one, get it back by mid day and back again when I go to bed. Well yesterday morning at 6am I woke up with the worse migraine headache ever, Mike tried massaging my head nothing help, the smallest noise hurt like hell, I took tons of pain medicine nothing helped. By about noon I was vomiting, my stomach was upset because of the pain I was in. I did manage to finally fall asleep and later on that night, I was feeling some what better. That stunk really bad. Mike ended up taking the night off to help me, what anice loving husnad. He kept coming in checking on me and then he came in and laid next to me for a bit. And now he also has today off to put the ceiling up in our bedroom, he is coming quite far, all the paneling is up, wiring is done and steps are built. I can’t wait till it’s done. He had Monday and Tuesday. off last week and work and worked on it and then worked on it this past weekend.

The other night we had some really bad weather, strong winds, snow then rain, made everything icy. Winds so bad, it almost ripped my rabbit shed door off, so the bunnies got cold, but they are okay. It is still chilly here, but we managed to stay above zero last night, we had 2 degrees. It is still very icy out, I fell on my butt tonight going out to my car, almost slid right under it. I went downtown today and got another 50lb bag of rabbit food and a huge bag of shavings, I mix shavings with hay during the winter.

Their hasn’t really been much going on besides working on the new bedroom. I made some CD’s the other day, one for Kristi and 2 for Mike. Ruth and I did go for a walk Thursday the weather was 50 out, beautiful. I cleaned the house this morning, didn’t yesterday and from the saw dust and people tracking in, it needed a good cleaning. Vacuuming, laundry is all done and dished.

There is exactly one month till my birthday February 17 and 2 months till my dads March 17th. And my birthday is on a Friday, I think Mike Is taking it off, he usually does. I should be thinking about what to make for dinner, mind is blank though. Mike needs me so off I go.

I have been trying to get Photo bucket to work for me & I think I got one wedding picture to post.

I am just waiting for Mike to get back from his dads and then we are going to Rome to go grocery shopping. He usually does not go with me but he told me the other day to not go Friday and wait for him and we would both go Saturday. So it will be fun. Yesterday morning we had to go to Watertown for dentist appointments, Mike, Kristi and I. I need to go see an oral surgeon for my jaw and get my teeth cleaned on the 30th and Kristi needs to get her last 3 baby teeth pulled. The on the 24th of February Mike and Kristi both need to go in for fillings. Luckily most of this is covered under Mike’s insurance, except for my jaw situation that is covered under Comp. I have been lazy this morning, I sleep in and then got up and took my shower. Now I have my sheets washing and I did pick up a little around the house, but it really isn’t dirty. Now it’s 12:30pm and that’s all I have did. I still have to take care of the animals and pay bills, I hate bills! The weather that we have been getting is very cold. It snows lightly during the day and drops down to zero at night. We went and filled out paper work the other day to try and get a loan. We are in to far behind in bills. This month we where almost $600 dollars short from making all our bills. That really sucks. And now gas just went up to $2.58 for a gallon, that is bull shit. How do they expect people to work like that. Need to get my butt moving before Mike gets back.

Tonight seems to be a long boring night. Mike is home but he has been watching TV all day. And I have been trying to download songs, but the problem is there is 35 songs and it’s going to take me forever. Mike got me 100 recordable CD’s for Christmas and I want to make my self some and some for him.

We went to camp Saturday afternoon and stayed till Monday morning. Besides the fact of coming home and getting cleaned up. We don’t have water at camp. We take 5 galloons up with us to wash our hands and do dishes. Gene, Ruth, Brittany and Matt where also their. Matt was only their Saturday. Saturday we played darts and cards. Had pepperoni, candy, chips, the junk food night. Had some drinks, not a lot though. Like 4, I’m not a big drinker. Then Sunday we basically did the same thing except we didn’t eat that much and didn’t drink at all. I took Brittany out to play in the snow and we went for a walk. Sue, Greg and AngelLeigh came over for awhile, Sue is my sister in law. We all had a good time, joking around and relaxing.

Then we came home Monday morning, showered up and went to Kristi’s house. Mike worked their for 3 hours and then we left. Took Kristi to Kings buffet for dinner and then took her shopping in Rome. She bought a couple things and then got hungry again, so we had to take her to McDonalds to eat again. After wards we came back to our house and played my new scrabble game, I won. It was 10pm and she was getting tired so we took her back home. We had a good time though and hope to do it again soon.

Today Mike called in because he had to fix our pump house it got plowed. So he worked on that and I cleaned the rabbit shed out, it was a nice day. We had 40 degrees and the cages were not froze. So now my animals are clean and got lots of fresh air today. I hope tomorrow is nice also. I plan on going to Ruth’s house tomorrow night so we can play scrabble. Friday morning Kristi and I have a dentist appt. in Watertown at 9:30am. I am switching dentist and hopefully this one in Watertown can fix my jaw. I have been going to my dentist in Boonville that I have always went to since a kid, but he has been messing with my jaw for the 4 years and still hasn’t fixed it. So I’m going to Mike’s dentist. And his daughter really needs to go to one, her mother hasn’t taking her to a dentist in 7 years. Well got to go now, Mike needs me.

Finally Christmas is over. This morning after my shower: I took down the Christmas tree and all my decorations. Then I went threw and cleaned up a lot of things from the mess yesterday. We had a really good day. At 11:30am Kristi called and said she was ready, so we went and got her. Brought her back here, opened gifts. Everyone really loved their gifts. I do have to exchange Mike’s boots, for a ½ size smaller. I really loved all the things he got me, what a loving husband. Then we showed here around the house and visited. After wards we took her to her grandmothers house and then we went to my brother in laws house and had dinner their. I played with Brittany while she showed me what Santa Claus brought her. Mike, his brother and Len where outside messing with Mike’s truck (Diesel fuel was leaking everywhere, not good) Then they went and did bard chores and came back in washed up and ate dinner. After wards we headed out to our house and had a get together their. We opened gifts and had snacks. Ruth and I played Skip-Bo. I think it turned out really well. Mike was upset about his truck though. But I am glad it’s over with, time to start saving money. And with any luck for the new year, two good things will happen, 1. I will loose weight and 2. I will get pregnant. Will see. My monthly came again Saturday night at 11pm, the good thing of that is this is the 3rd month in a row that it has came every 28 days.

Christmas eve, we went to my moms and gave her, her birthday gifts. Then she cut Mike’s hair for him, looks better now. Then my other sister showed up and we exchanged gifts from my and 2 sisters and gave my them our gifts to them. Then we took my parents out to Jreck subs for subs for my moms birthday, that’s where she wanted to go. After wards we went to watch Kristi sing in church for the midnight service and then drove around looking at Christmas lights.

Friday morning we had to go plow, got that done with ate lunch. And then went down and worked in Kristi’s house. Then went well, Kristi came out in the kitchen and was really talkative this time. After that we took Mike’s dads Christmas gifts to him and after that we went to Gene and Ruth’s house for dinner. Then we took Brittany to her Grandmas house (which she didn’t want to go, I felt so bad for her bus she had to) Then we all went to Rome at 10pm that night to finish their Christmas shopping. Got home at 2am and we went right to bed.

That has been my weekend. Now I must go check my e-mail and feed the animals. Hope every one had a wonderful holiday weekend, I know I did.

Wow, I can’t believe that in 5 days, Christmas will be here. I’m glad that I am done shopping. I got Mike, a electric welder, a saw, saw, a hammer drill and a pillar set. I wanted to get him more, but I have no money. His stocking is empty, but I have no clue what I could put in it, that wouldn’t cost much. I guess Christmas EVE (my moms birthday) we are opening presents from my side of the family. And then Christmas day, we pick Kristi up at 11:30 and do presents with her, take her back to her Grandmas and then we go to Mike’s brother house for dinner. Then they will do barn chores and us girls will clean up the mess. Afterwards we all come back to our house so we can give them their gifts.

Right now I am working on a e-card to send to my sister in law, tomorrow is her birthday. I wanted to make her a card but my printer will not install for some dumb reason. We are getting a lot of snow, we plowed this morning and it looks like we are going to tomorrow morning too. I hate plowing plus it puts me to sleep. Mike and I have been doing really well. Although I really wish I could get pregnant or maybe even no someone who is and doesn’t want their child, then maybe we could adopt him/her. Oh well, I keep praying and hoping.

Sunday night we went to Mindy’s wedding, it was fun. And we are glad we went. I am feeling so much better, have been since Saturday morning. Saturday afternoon I took all my baking things to my sister in laws house and we baked cookies for 8 hours. We made, pineapple, Chocolate chip with M&M’s, chocolate chip with rice krispies, sugar cookies, chocolate cupcakes, no bakes and cheesecake with oreos cupcakes. It was fun, but tiring. Well I had better get back to making that card. Hope everyone has a wonderful night.

Okay so last night I did end up making cupcakes for Mike and even cleaned the house up a little bit. Then I laid down at 11pm and Mike woke me up at 12:15am when he got home. They only went to two stores, a hour drive to Utica, so you figure they left at 4pm got their at 5pm and didn’t leave till 11:15pm. That is 6 hours shopping for me, holly cow. They did eat in Wal-Mart, but still that’s what 20 minutes if that. He had them in his truck, unwrap, he dropped them back off at his moms this afternoon before he went to work. I didn’t get to go with him this morning when he went down town, but that’s okay with being sick, I relaxed and then took a hot shower. He had to leave early today, it was his works crew Christmas party. His plants Christmas party is supposed to be sometime in January, they booked to late to have it in December. Usually they have a dinner with deserts, free soda, they serve alcohol but you have to buy it, and then they do the drawings and then there is music and you dance. It is usually fun.

My throat is very sore today, I have had a cough drops in all day. I had chicken noodle soup for lunch, it felt good being warm. I just went out and took care of the animals and froze. The sad thing is I had Mike go out early this morning to check on Ben my first lop eared bunny, cause he didn’t look good yesterday and I didn’t want to see him dead. Mike went out and came back in, with a sad look on and said he was dead. Poor bunny, he was so cute and fat. When I would take him out of his cage and sat him down on the grass, he would just sit there and that’s it. Not a wild bunny at all. He sure will be missed. So now I’m back down to 4 for the winter. I really need to clean them but it’s all froze. I was told that it’s good to have it freeze, keeps them warmer in the winter.

I am ding laundry right now, we didn’t have a lot, bug I figured I was board and might as well get it done. I have to pick Lexi up at 2:45 at my moms and then bring her back here. I think we are still going out to dinner tonight with my mother in law, sister in law, and 2 nieces. As long as the weather is still good. We are supposed to get a snow, ice and wind storm tonight threw late Friday. Only 10 more days till Christmas, which means Kristi gets to see our house. And then either that night or the next day I will take all the inside decorations down and will be able to get my house back together. But I like having the things up, makes it look really nice. I hope I’m not still sick Sunday, we have a wedding to go to, at 6:30pm. Got to go take care of my noise and lay down for ½ hour.

Today I am sick. Last night I started getting a sore throat. And I’ll day today I have had a sore throat, runny noise and sneezing. It’s no fun. I don’t think this 20 below zero weather is helping. This morning we went done and Mike worked on Kristi’s moms kitchen, putting paneling up. Worked for 3 ½ hours came home and he left to go shopping with his mom. Then Lexi and I went to a friend Sue’s house and gave her, her Christmas gift. Then me, Lexi and mom went to Boonville. I had to get some things, one thing that I wanted to get for Mike, was gone. I did manage to get him the boots he wanted. I got them yesterday. Mike and his mom are gone shopping for me right now, not sure when he will be home. I was going to make him cupcakes tonight, but I don’t feel like it. I think one of my bunny’s is sick. I went to feed and water them tonight and he didn’t act right. I think it’s cold for them, but they survived last winter in their cages inside the shed with lots of hay and food and water. Good news is we found out that Kristi is coming up Christmas day from noon till 3pm. So that is when we are doing our gifts. I am tired and feel like crap so I should go lay down.

Mike just left for work, L Yesterday morning our new fridge and stove arrived and put it. So nice, it brightened the kitchen right up. So now everything is white in the kitchen, white fridge, stove, microwave, can opener, toaster, vacuum packer and the deep fryer. After that got done, I had to get my house back together, which we manage to do. Then we had company show up and around 5ish we left for shopping. Stopped at Burger king and ate, my parents went their for supper also, so we ate together. Then Mike and I headed out for Utica, so now all of our shopping is done for family. Mike is going with him mom Wednesday for me and I still need to get a couple more things for him yet. Plus we are now a member of BJ’S wholesale. They have really good deals their. I got my mom her gifts their, more gifts for Kristi there and we got bulks of deodorant for me and him and shaving cream for me, cheap too. Needless to say that after we got shopping, we spent $350 yesterday, OOCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I have a lot of wrapping to do today, which I should be doing right now. Today is Lexis’s 5th birthday and she was the big mac winner at McDonalds. I am going to my moms around 5:30 for cake and ice cream and giving Lexi her other present from me. Her party was Saturday at McDonalds, that went okay. The kids had a ball. Then I had to leave early because I had to baby sit. Caroline and Caleb where really good, they loved their present from me and we made crafts and played. I watched them for 6 till midnight.

Today it seems like I have been doing laundry all day, washing and folding, washing and folding. We went to Widmyers this morning and got some things for our house and Kristi’s house (we still need to finish work their) Some days Kristi can be such a brat and really hurt Mike’s feelings. He really wants her to come up for Christmas (we spent so far $230 on her for Christmas) and she doesn’t want to come up. I have to get wrapping or I will never get everything done today.

Not much to say tonight. I ache everywhere, bad migraine headache, legs ache and back ache. Been on the go 24/7 past two days and will be for the next 2 days. Sunday I am sleeping in and going to relax, I hope. I hear where in for another bad storm from midnight tonight till 4pm tomorrow, yuck. That’s probably why I hurt so much. Computer is going till Saturday we had to much to do today. Which is fine by me. I got a few more Christmas presents tonight, a toy for the two kids I baby sit (one fore each) and a friend of mine. I am babysitting Saturday night. Well got to make Mike a snack. Have a good weekend to all.

We spent 4 hours this morning plowing people out. Got up at 7am, left at 8am and got home at 12:30pm. Which we came home, I made lunch and then we left again to go to Mike’s ex wife’s house so he could work on her house, which I went him. He made $50 dollars from her today, $20 for plowing and $30 for the 2 hours work that he did. He still has more work to do, but we are waiting on her to order the things she needs. My computer should be leaving tomorrow morning and hopefully I will have it back by Friday or Saturday. Saturday we get our new fridge and stove and then I need to be in Watertown by 2m for Lexis’s birthday party at McDonalds. We have 9 degrees outside right now, it’s freezing, our low last night was 5. And we ended up with about a foot of snow. I got the house cleaned up, it needed I slacked off for a couple days on the vacuuming, dishes where nothing just for dinner tonight. I cheated and made toasted cheese sandwiches and tomato soup. I hade steak out marinating but our nephew Matt should up and I didn’t have enough, he can eat a lot! So I will serve that tomorrow for lunch. Mike has the night off, so I’m going to go play cards with him. Hope everyone is in a holly jolly mood for the season.
