I am hating not being able to download my pictures

Brian and Zach fixed supper for us last night. The truth is Zach and Brian peeled shrimp that I had pulled out of the freezer that Brian had bought a couple of months ago. Brian called and ask what we were having for supper and I told him shrimp and he asked were they peeled yet and I said no I will get Zach started on that right now. Brian got home from work and joined in and I took G to a birthday party. When I got home the shrimp were ready and on the table. So if I consider mac n cheese supper they get credit for grilling shrimp! I didn't have to do much and it was a treat to eat food someone else has cooked! Plus I just can not peel those shrimp with the heads on and the legs and whiskers, G R O S S! The eyes popping out. There was even a little tiny crab that got caught in the mix.

I hate that I can take pictures but can't get them to download onto this site. Brian is going to fix it next time he is off!

Cydney is at Zach's, JB is playing downstairs, G is cleaning her bathroom and Brian is cutting the grass. I am playing on the computer:) But I was at Kroger at 7:15 this morning grocery shopping. G and I just got back from Walmart to pickup what I didn't want to buy at Kroger and I have done and put away all the laundry. We also went to church and Sunday school, I cooked breakfast and cleaned up that mess. Man I am smokin'!

The DAWGS just did pull it out last night. When I went to my room, I don't get ESPNU, they were winning and then later in the night Brian told me what happened! I was glad I missed it.

The race is on downstairs but I am not even caring about it too much. I don't know what sport is occuping my time these days.

Grayce has basketball tryouts Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Lucky us. I hate not to be running back and forth for a few weeks.

The fair starts in eleven days. I went over there three times on Friday! It is just beginning!

I am thinking about ordering some stuff I saw in the sale papers for Christmas but for some reason I can't seem to make that committment. I know if I do I will be happy about it but I just can't make up my mind!

I think I might go take a nap on the couch.

Shhh, listen carefully....

no one is hollering mama! I know, I know, I will miss it one day! WRONG! I will miss my children but there are somethings I will not miss and that is them hollering my name out across the house!

James Brian is playing with Justin. I sent a message to his mom earlier today that is was my weekend with the kids! Grayce is at a PMS softball game watching Justin's sister and then the 8th grade plays so she will watch her friend Kayla.

Brian is taking her to the WHS game in Macon. Cydney is spending the night with Abbie. It appears at this minute I have any easy night. The truth is I have an easy night every night! I would love to go to the grocery store and get it over with but I don't think that will happen.

I made our annual Walt Disney World trip reservations this morning. I know Brian hates to go but he usually behaves pretty good. The children enjoy it. Every time I come back from some where I say we are never going anywhere again because of the mess I have to clean up but here I have booked another trip!

The children learned several years ago at school you should have family traditions. I guess that is why it is important to me to keep going to Disney because we do so little as a family. When they are grown they can say we did go to WDW once a year as a family. (That paragraph should get me mother of the year!)

I am going to start laundry and wait for G to call so I can pick her up at the softball game and take her to her daddy!

Fresh out of batteries but still making noise!

A reader wore out the chief of police and the city in today's paper! Michelle one, City ZERO!

We are having a good week. People are patting us on the back and telling us what we did was a good thing and we are getting email and visits from people we haven't heard from in a while. One of the city counsel members called today. He is coming to visit Wayne tomorrow.

The tags and trunk stickers are off all the cars that I am seeing during the day. What is on the night time cars I don't' know but at least I am making progress.

Ford Credit came today. We had a good audit. I am so proud of Brian for working hard. We all have a great attitude. Daddy decided today that God really does love him and he has taken care of us for over 100 audits. He would take care of us now! Praise God!

I didn't eat breakfast today, I try not to because I am hungrier if I do eat. Well Ford messed up lunch time and by the time she left it was time to pick up the children so we ended up at mexican for an early supper. The cokes at that place are so good it should be a sin!

James Brian had football practice Tuesday. He is still loving it. He wanted to watch wrestling Monday night but it comes on from 9-11. Last time he stayed up late to watch he was sick the next day and I had to pick him up early. So I wouldn't let him stay up so he said fine I will record it and get up at 5AM to watch it before school. Well guess what...he was up at 5AM to watch wrestling before school!

I have gone to curves two days this week. I will try to go on Friday. Eating at the lot is still a problem. My friend Ms. Joe brought me, not everyone, just me cookies today.

Several months ago a tree limb fell right in front of my car. Luckily it missed the front end by inches. So we have been parking 10 feet or so back so when the rest of the limb falls it won't hit the car. Well guess what. I didn't park Brians truck far enough back and a big limb fell on the front of his truck yesterday during the rain. The bad part the truck was sold! We were able to take it to the dent man and he got it out. It could have been a big mess. Now we are parking even further back.

My batteries are dying. Plus I can't think of anything else to say.

Good Grief....

How could I forget my user name and password in one day.

G made it all night at her friend Katelyns house. James Brian and Cydney are both great and spent the night at home with no company. Zach and Cyd went to the football game, Brian and JB watched wrestling and I went to sleepy town!

I worked all day yesterday. Past 5:30. G went home with a friend, JB went with a friend and Cydney drives herself so I didn't need to leave to go to school. So I though I would just work. That was stupid. It gets crazy and loud on Friday afternoon. Next time I won't admit to anything and just pretend I have to pick up the children.

Westfield won the football game. We are 4-0! That is impressive but not impressive enough for me to go!

The government is giving Brian fits over the clunkers. Everytime he gets one corrected then he gets another email something else is wrong. I heard beeping last night in the middle of the night and he is getting emails from the clunker people. Keep us in your prayers over this thing. We CAN'T afford to loose money over it!

Daddy and I are on the front page of the newspaper today. I am so excited. Not the best picture of me. My arms look fat! Daddy always looks nice. I am looking forward to next week when people have read it. I am only fighting for whats right and they know it. Hopefully we will get some business. Maybe even curiosity seekers. Who cares as long as they are buying something.

The part I hate most about working is laundry. With ball games or practice almost every night it is impossible to do laundry everyday so it gets piled up by Saturday morning and then I spend all day trying to get it done and put away.

The man who owns Chick Fil A in Perry ask G to be the baby cow during the fair. Apparently she is the perfect size and he is going to pay her. He is silly she would do it for free!

Now that I have a facebook page, blah, blah, blah. (I don't have time for it). I know more people are reading this. I don't mind, I put it out there. What I would really love is to have two blogs. One that I tell what I really think and then this one where I only tell what I want people to know!

I found G 's phone right where it was supposed to be. Under the recliner in the den! Imagine that. Brian wants me to look for her camera there! I am sure there are some shoes under there too! Somewhere along the line it must have gotten rocked on because the screen is janked up! Add another thing to my to do list!

No race today but the Georgia game is on. I am trying to talk G into going shopping.

19 more days until the fair!

I had quiet the exciting day today!

The newspaper came. It was great! Big, big story in Saturdays paper! I will save everyone copies! Actually I don't know how big but the reporter said it would be big!

I noticed in town this afternoon all the cars I saw had the tags removed. I couldn't see the stickers yet but I will. I am thinking I will need to be very careful in town in case someone is out to get me!

Tonight Grayce had a softball game and then a party. JB had football practice after school. It was going to be a busy afternoon but I had it all worked out. Everything got cancelled but the coach decided to eat Mexican with the parents and the team. Good grief they were noisy. Well I told you that story to get to this. We were finishing up afterwards and about 20 people are standing outside in front of the restaurant. The fire truck pulls up. I think oh no here we go. He mumbles something. I said what and walked up ready to give him the dickens and the poor guy only wanted to make sure we weren't all waiting. It was pretty funny!

Now, since I have been awake since 4AM I am going to go read!

Can't Keep Up and no one even notices!

I guess uncle Bobby has gone into hiding. Chase didn't even send me an email that I mentioned him. I don't know why I bother!

We had a fun night Saturday, I think. Watching Carl win the Nationwide with a broken foot! He is the man, again! At least that day! Jason called Brian one day last week wanted a Fusion for his sister and law and Brian told him about one and he ask was it fast and Brian said faster than that car ya'll ran last weekend!

Zach took Cydney shopping for their 6 month anniversary. He bought her a beautiful necklace. I was mad about it because it cost too much! I guess a necklace isn't any different that a pocketbook and thank goodness it wasn't a puppy!

I can't even remember what has been happening this week. G had a game Monday. Zach went with us. My three children have mutated in four! He is a sweet boy and doesn't take Cydneys crap. I love it! Coach Henry told Grayce that was her best game ever.

Tuesday JB got sick at school and I picked him up early. After he threw up all over the side of the car he felt much better.

Daddy and I went to the city counsel meeting last night. I was so proud of him. There should be an article in the newspaper Saturday. We stood up for what we think is right and I hope we made a point. We'll see.

G had another game last night. Brian took her and Cyd and then went to Sams afterwards. Brian loves that store.

Cydney has a home game tomorrow that she is going to sit with the team. G's last game is in Macon tomorrow and JB has football practice. Thank the Lord I have the best daddy in the world. He is going to pick JB up at football and bring him to us at the game. We already have plans to take the girls to eat Mexican afterwards. The whole team and the families are going it should be fun. I sure I will have pictures if I can get to them!

I have gone to curves two days this week. I am planning on going Friday with my friend DeAnn! I have been over 100 times!

Brian just called. The newspaper is coming to do a story on us tomorrow. The reporter said it is going to be big. The paper is making it a big deal! Praise the Lord! I personally think that is great news. Please pray for me and daddy to make wise decisions. I started all this. I hope I have done the right thing!

I am sure I have left something out but now my mind is on the newspaper and I can't sit still!

May the force be with ME!

(Hey Zach, Hey Tyler!)

All kinds of things are happening today...

Cydney washed her hair by herself, finally! She was headed to the football game with Zach and I wasn't home yet so she took a chance and did it! Yea, I am so glad that part of my life is over!

Brian has taken G to the football game also. They are only in Macon. Yes, I was letting Cydney go by herself but I got the number to the Sheriffs deputy that is working the football game so I know he will keep an eye on her!

James Brian has Justin over. They are playing great. Actually Justin must be tired because he is a little loud tonight.

I have the pleasure of doing laundry. The good thing is it will be all done for tomorrow and I can concentrate as something else.

James Brian had his first football practice yesterday. He said he didn't know football could be so much fun. Wednesday after school he got his uniform and pads. I swear he would have slept in it if I would have let him! He wore his shoulder pads into the shoe store to get his football cleats. I know everyone who has a little boy knew he was excited to be playing.

Grayce had a game yesterday. We only have three games left and they are all away next week.
Football won't be over until the end of October. His first game is the first night of the fair. I don't know how that will work out. Yes, I do. We will go to the game and then go to the fair!

I have failed to mention this until now because I wanted to be sure he was home to read it. My cousin Chase went on a cruise somewhere and stopped by the dealership to see daddy I guess, I would like to think he stopped to see me but I doubt it, but I was able to ask him to wait and I got to visit with him for a few minutes. I have some pictures but I can't get any pictures to open so I can't post those yet. I love Chase and miss seeing him. I remember when he was born I got out of school the day he came home from the hospital. I don't think any family could have been more excited about a baby than we all were over him. I remember one time his mom, my aunt Judy was trying to rest and I was holding him and he went to sleep but I didn't know how to lay him down...so I just held him on my chest and let him sleep. He was precious(and still is, he is just all grown).

I guess I didn't have as much to talk about as I thought. Oh, I did go to curves two days this week. I am still working everyday. Not too hard, though, just enough to get by. That is not true I was even filing yesterday and when I worked all the time I didn't even do my own filing. Poor old Shannon did it for me because she knew I hated to!

Someone in downtown Perry was walking down the street and a car pulled over to ask directions and they got out and beat him up. In town! That is so scary. You expect that in Atlanta but not in town, in Perry! They arrested two people, gang initiation. That is crazy, in Perry! Daddy runs all over the place and I ask him today to PLEASE, be extra careful!

God is Great, beer is good and people are crazy!

Cyd got her cast off today!

We really expected her to get a new one for another two weeks but they took an xray and said it was healing up well so she has a removable splint. She still can't write with it and has to wear it most of the time and cannot participate in PE but at least she is allowed to take a shower and wash her hair by herself! Praise the Lord! He wants her to take it off and move her thumb a little bit but she is really scared of that! I think she is going to work with the physical therapist to get her going first. She said it felt good to rub her arm and we washed it with soap and water at the doctors office and then rubbed lotion on it. Funny the little things we take for granite!

Everyone, except Brian is home. He is supposed to be here soon. We had some coupons for chick fil a sandwiches so Cyd picked those up on the way home. I still fixed us Broccoli and cheese soup to go with it.

James Brian and Brian have both stayed up late the last several nights with the race and last night was WWE Monday are some wrestling something so JB was up late last night.

I don't have a book to read tonight so I am not even thinking about going to bed! I went to curves this morning but it is really getting hard. It just isn't fun to exercise. Then this overweight lady with big flabby arms came in the dealership and that reminded me why I do go to curves.

I have to work all day tomorrow. I will be all by myself. It won't be bad I have plenty to keep my busy and time goes by fast when your are working! I know I said I wasn't going back but it seems I can't ever get to a stopping point and I hate to leave Margarett alone.

I didn't go in until 10:15 today so I am getting better. If I can get the schedules done tomorrow then I won't go at all Thursday. Yes, I will I am just not that kind of person!

G is wearing Cydney's cast around. It is kind of gross but Grayce doesn't care. She loves to play doctor!

I guess I need to go help with homework. Just another joy of having children. (hey another chapter for my book!)

Brian and JB at the Atlanta Race. They loved the night racing!!

Labor Day Weekend Is Coming to a screeching halt!

Breanna and Walker

Walker loves the tractor

Eric and Walker

Cydney and Walker

Grayce and Breanna playing with Hayden in the toy closet

Andrea and Walker

I had these great plans to get my house all clean. Well I did really good on Saturday.

Eric and Andrea were coming on Friday and had the flat tire so they didn't make it but they ended up coming on Saturday. They didn't get here until around 9:00 at night. So I was able to clean up at least until I got bored with it.

Sunday we went to church and Sunday school, ate lunch at home and then took some air conditioners to a rental house. Went to Elko to pick up a refrigerator to take to the rental house and then Brian and JB left for the race.

After a few hours the girls and I went to daddys to visit with the Pointers. Good grief, I am so glad I don't have a little, little one. They are really cute. Walker is a doll and he will say whatever you tell him to but with all those children running around I had a total break down and drank a coke and ate sweet bites from the Krystal!

Brian's radios weren't charged good enough for him to hear all the race over the headphones so I kept texting him when someone had a problem. Cydney stayed out late at her friend Katie's house. Don't worry I can almost see her house from ours. Carl didn't have a good night but he is hanging in there. The boys got home about 1:00.

We went to see Eric, Andrea, Breanna and Walker this morning. When they left for home we came home. I have cleaned up James Brians room. Not like I really want to. I want to clean out his closet but there just isn't time right now.

Cydney has gone to the grocery store to pick up a few things for lunches next week. James Brian is picking up some cars he doesn't play with everyday and I think G is camped out on the couch!

Tomorrow is back to normal. I did enjoy taking my time this morning and visiting with Eric and Andrea. I miss them but I told them this morning I know why God put Eric in Alabama and Melissa in Dahlonega! They are just way uptight with there kids(not Melssia, just Eric). Brian and I and our children have always just hung out and had fun and not been uptight but Eric and Andrea are silly! I just kept rolling my eyes at them. I can't wait until they are old enough to spend the summer with me. I will fix all the worlds problems! Or at least Walker and Breannas!

JB needs the computer. He wants to play some wrestling game I'm sure.

All my little ducks woke up in their own bed this AM!

That might not sound impressive but it really is!

When your children are 16,12 and 6 someone is always spending the night with a friend or a friend is spending the night with them or in my case someone is always getting in bed with me!

JB had a friend over after school. Cute little boy and very sweet and polite but JB just doesn't play as good with anyone as he does Justin. Sam wanted to spend the night but James Brian was ready for him to go about 6:00! He went home about 7 so it worked out alright!

Eric and Andrea were coming this weekend but on the way last night they has a flat tire and the rubber wrapped around the axle and messed up the odometer and all the lights were staying on. So they decided it would be best to go back home. Now G is upset and missing them terribly!

This weekend is supposed to be cleaning house day. It is almost 10:00 and I haven't even made it downstairs! I hear James Brian playing something. I hate to go distrub him! I told the children when I go to bed Monday night I would love to be able to say all the laundry is done and the house is really clean! Last time we cleaned really, really good we had company so I was thinking about telling them if they would help me clean up we would have all the coaches over for a cookout on Monday. Well, Brian has to work and if we did it late then the house would get messed up again and they wouldn't get in bed early for school the next day. It looks like a no win situation! The girls will help clean I just have to give them a things to do list! I have said before those cell phones and that car is a powerful tool!

As of this AM Brian and JB are going to the race. I think Cyd changed her mind because she wants to go to a girlfriends party. I must remind her of all the boys at the racetrack!

Enjoy the sunshine today!

We get another night off!

Grayce had a softball game last night in Macon, Cydney had a game at home. So G and I went to hers, Cydney went to keep the bench warm at hers and Brian and JB hung out at the dealership.

Grayce probably had the worst game of her softball career. Things just didn't go well for her last night. When it was over she was ready to quit. A ball was hit to the outfield, G was on second and the girl is running to get the ball, the coach hollers, Grayce that's your ball, the outfielder stops and Grayce stops and the ball drops. I try to be fair where errors are counted and that was not her ball. If the coach would have kept quiet the outfielder would have had it. After that episode it was just down hill.

Cydneys team won. Her attitude is good, I just know she wished she was out there. She kept texting me who was playing where and I know Cyd has more talent!

After the game G and I went to Mexican with the team. I didn't really want to but I have gone with Cyd and her team and I needed to take G. It all worked out because Cyd went to Chick Fil A with Zach and then Brian took JB to the Mexican in Perry. So yea, I didn't have to cook!

I worked today. I was in the office all day alone. It was nice but when you have to make a pit stop you have to get someone to answer the phone!

JB and I are at home thinking about what to cook for supper. Cyd will be here shortly and G is at practice. When I pick her up at 5:00 we are off for the rest of the night.

Brian is off tomorrow and I am sure he will be up at the crack of dawn cutting grass somewhere!

Back in the summer someone wanted to rent our condo for thirty days. I told the agency yes because at the point we weren't getting any rentals. Brian was mad about it. He said it was too cheap and we could find enough people around here to go for the amount of money a day. Well I found out today the man has rented it for another thirty days and they think another thirty after that! So praise the Lord I made a wise decision. I made Brian apologize!

Anybody want to buy a magazine. School is selling again this year. It drives me crazy! I hate a fund raiser.
