Busy

I have been so busy around here! It seems like I have not had the time for anything. Well take that back I have been spending my time doing LAUNDRY! I did 5 loads yesterday and 2 loads today so far. And ya know what, I still can not see the bottom of my hamper yet!

Last week I was sick with a chest cold and the baby broke out from something unknown! Anyway he is real crabby. Now Zack has it on his face. We know his is from laying on a hay bale....so we are thinking that is what the baby's problem is cause he and I sat down in hay waiting on the guys one day!

The past few days school has been going really well. The boys are doing great! Now as soon as I brag on them... they'll make a liar out of me! LOL

We got our first snow fall last night of 2 inches but it has now melted off. I think snow is beautiful but my body disagrees. I hurt so bad in the winter! Old Arthur kills me!

Saturday

Wow it sure is a windy fall day. It is on the gloomy side as well. The leaves are just FALLING like crazy out of the trees. It is so sad to see the trees with no color and bare. I mean there are still some trees with leaves attached, but it is just dull. Kinda depressing!

I am still on the sick side of life. My asthma is kicking in and so I have been wheezing. I have been drinking some OJ to see if it will build up some forces against this evil sickness! Come on vitamin C!!! I took the baby to get his rash checked out on his leg. It is about a 5 x 5 patch. The poor guy has been itching and it looks so bad (raw and red). The doc thinks it is eczema. He prescribed him some Lorticaid and I am giving him a bath in aveno baby bath, and soaking him in some baking soda. Hopefully in a few days he will be on the mend. Zack has eczema on his elbows and his usually acts up in the Summer. Poor kids!

Where I have been sick I have not did much around here. Yesterday Brian got off early and well with that said he beat me home. He saw the house as it was and was quite upset. He asked what I had did all day and yada yada!!! Then he asked how come I did not do school. I tell ya, being mom, teacher, cleaner, doctor, and sick is hard! I won't go into the entire conversation, but when he goes on these rants it makes me feel so incompetent. Sometimes I feel like throwing my hands up and just say DO IT YOURSELF, I QUIT! But alas my job as a mother is an ongoing process and I can not quit! I guess he thinks I sit around all day and eat bon bon's! Now wouldn't that be a wonderful life! NOT!!!

Today I have been trying to get caught up on laundry but I think that is next to impossible. I have not seen the bottom of my hamper in so long I don't know what the bottom looks like. I quit using cloth diapers cause I just could not keep up with it all. Oh well such is life I suppose!

I guess I had better get off here and finish the house and do more laundry!

This week I have been sick. Yesterday was the worst. Luckily Brian was off so I could sleep. I have asthma and when I get a cold it seems to go straight to my chest. Today I am feeling better. I tell ya, when momma is sick it is rough!

I re-added my diet page. I had deleted it, but then decided I would add it back. I change my mind so much! I am never satisfied with stuff. I like change! Sometimes that is good, and other times it is BAD!

Not much has been going on around here. The boys helped Brian do some tree clearing yesterday. I went out to watch for a bit, but then started to feel bad and so Isaiah and I headed for the house and went back to bed. I am so thankful he allowed me to sleep!

We did not get any school done today. Since I was feeling better, I had so much cleaning to do. That is the bad thing about being a mom and a teacher! Ha! Although there is learning in anything we do.

The weather the past few days has been awesome. We could use some rain, but I love the warmer weather. Cold weather makes me hurt!

Election Day

Well I am sick. I thought the cold bug had passed me up, but alas I caught it 2 weeks later. I am unsure if it is more than just a cold or not. I am chilling and my teeth actually hurt. I sure hope it is not he flu. Anyway I did go and vote. I was not going to vote, but the more I thought about it I had to do what I could to try and keep morals here in America. I guess you could say I voted for the less of the evils. There were things I did NOT like about both canidates. All though Obama had a lot more negative stuff about him than McCain. So with that said I am sure you can guess who I voted for. My mother had surgery on Monday and I have not been able to go and see her. She had a gastric bypass done. Don't ask me how I feel about it, that is one thing I don't want to even talk about. I am not against the surgery so much as I am to see my mother at 56 go through something so evasive with the physical problems she already has. Oh well too late for that I suppose. I guess some would think that I am being mean about it, but some don't know what we have went through with her. Well I am closing, hope you had a good day!
