I am here

Okay so sue me that I have not been around. Life is busy for me! Seems like there is never a dull moment. I only have so many hours in a day and those seem to go by way to quickly for me anymore.

I am still coughing a lot. It seems like that does not want to leave me. I guess it wants to be my friend. I don't need a friend like this one! LOL The kids are on the mend as well as Brian. Well Brian's back has been acting up. He was down for the past few days and today he did manage to go to work but not sure how he will make it back up the hill.

School was out today due to snow. They say we are going to be getting more of the white stuff over the next few days. I am not a happy camper! That means I am stuck in the house some more! I do hope the kids go to school tomorrow! Momma needs some time to herself!

As for my weight loss it seems like I am at a stand still. My scales are not budging. They go up then they go down then they go up....The past few days I have been very stressed and so I did eat more than normal. Anyway hopefuly I can get back to the dieting board!

Been sick sharing some pics and a cute video

I tell ya this year has been horrible for sickness. It seems we get rid of one thing to get something else. I wish it would GO away and NOT come again another day!!! I had promised some pictures on our New Years Eve . We had some good eats and then headed for bed. We had asked Brian's parents up but it is always no go with them. Oh well their loss!

I love taking pictures of Isaiah. He is just so adorable. Well all my boys are, no I am not prideful it is the TRUTH!! Logan took this one.

All my boys fortunately have been real good eaters. Isaiah is one of the best though. I think I could stick spinach (and I have) in front of him and he will eat it. We had spaghetti yesterday and he really got into his FOOD! He definately had to have a bath after this.

Not much has been going on around here since we all have been sick. Zack missed an entire week of school due to being sick. Logan brought his work home for him and he is still trying to get it all done. He has been sleeping alot! I am still not feeling my best. Taking care of the sick when you are sick yourself is quite hard! As I am writing this blog entry I am downloading a video I made of Isaiah. I tell ya it is taking forever to get it done!

So while I am waiting for the video to upload I will share another picture. I took this picture of my mom when they were up here for Zack's birthday. She has lost quite a bit of weight and mainly you can tell in her face and butt.

It sure has been cold! I have been having to carry buckets of water up to the animals. That is not even fun at all! And here Brian is wanting to get some more chickens and goats. Geesh! I love them but the winter time is NO fun trying to take care of them!! And I am sure the cold weather is here to stay for awhile! Cold is one thing but negative temps is another! Now I know why the birds go south! Maybe I too need to be a snowbird, FL here I come!

We have been having some car issues so Brian has been taking my Bravada which has left me stuck at home. I guess that is good considering I have no where in particular to go, unless shopping counts. The good Lord knows I don't need to be out spending money! Things are just so expensive these days! With my growing boys we sure do go through the groceries and I am sure it is NOT going to get any better!!!

Now for the long awaited video. "My Little Elvis" Watch until the end! It is just too cute not too!!

New Years EVE and I fell

On New Years Eve Brian wanted to have some finger foods. So I made a cheese ball, some pigs in a blanket, chips and dip, poppers, and punch. I have a picture but have not uploaded it yet. The boys shot of their guns that Bob and Terry got them. They thought that was something. On New Years Day we just hung around the house. I wanted to go out driving but did not. The boys worked outside with Brian on making our duck fence bigger. This Spring we are going to get some more ducks. We may get a few more goats too, not sure.

I fell down yesterday. I had went up to take care of the animals and I did fine the way I went up and should've came back down the same way but alas I wanted to get to the house quicker. Oh I got down there quicker alright... on my bum! I fell from the top clear to the bottom. Today I feel like I have been in a wreck. My middle back to my calf muscles are killing me. I can hardly move!

On a lighter note... last night for some reason I had gas. Okay too much info I know, but it is the truth. Well I let loose of a loud one and Isaiah is laying beside me as well as Brian and all of the sudden when the gas passes... Isaiah says Uh oh!!! I died laughing!!! Then he said ewww!!! Kids!!!
