Fall Fest

I'm about to take the girls to the fall fest at their school. They are so excited and I offered to help out while I was there. I got a surprise when they asked if I could draw. I said yes because can't everyone? They filled me in on what I was going to be doing.....painting faces. I can't draw that good, but I'll do my best. Hahah I don't know if I'm really down with getting in all of these children's faces, seeing as how it is that time of year for colds and the flu. Antibacterial wipes will be right by my side, fighting off the germs.

The girls woke me up to giggling. This morning they have played together so well. I am so happy that they are like best little friends today. They counted their money in their piggy banks and put it all together and decided they wanted to go shopping after the fall fest and get something that they can play with together. I over heard Madison telling Maggie that she needed to put her money in the bank. Maggie didn't like her idea. Madison was explaining how if she put her money in the bank she could make money....like three dollars or something...she said. Maggie was like...Wow! Three dollars!.....LOL, they crack me up.

I think today will be a much better day than yesterday. Hahhahahaha

It's been a while.

Well, I'm back. Long time no write right! I've been busy. Well, not so much I've just been Blah. But anyway, it's Friday night and the girls are hunkered down on the couch watching Shark boy and Lava Girl. I'm here on the computer bored and figured I'd stop by my blog and look at how long it's been since I've written. It's been too long....


Maggie is loving Kindergarten and I am so glad she does. She reads so well. I'm so proud of her. She has been getting help with Mrs. Morris and let me just say that woman can teach. Dick and Jane are her favorite books to read. Then there is Madison, she is making great grades in school. She's always done really well in her studies. Where she gets that I don't know, but I'm very thankful for it. As for me, I am at home all the time and I think sitting at home all day- every day- is kind of depressing. I have had time to read....The Shack (really interesting, made me think in a way I never thought of before), The love dare (still reading it), Daily Devotionals and lots of magazines. I think being a stay at home wife is nice but lonely. I guess I need to join some club or something. Anything to get me outta this house. Lately I've been riding around in Latch when I have nothing else to do. I've been gravitating towards the oil top road I used to live on. I miss it. I miss being young. I miss my family members that have died. I feel like life is flying by and the older I get the faster it goes. I miss the country and that old road I used to walk down each day. Does everyone go through things like this? I miss it terribly. I think being at home with children for all these years and now not having any here with me, makes me lonely. Is that strange. I can't quite explain it. I feel like I don't have any other purpose. I was in charge of raising the girls and now they are gone 8 hours a day and I sit alone reminiscing about old times. I can for sure say I don't want any more kiddos. I am NOT that lonely. Hahaha, but I need something. Like a job....a job that I go into work at 8am and get off at exactly 3:15 on the dot to pick the girls up from school. LoL, but doesn't every one with little kids. I've been lucky enough to stay home all these years and now I am just in a rut. I'll get out of it. I just figured I'd write about how I was feeling at the moment. Maggie keeps running in and out of here talking to me. I guess I could get off of here and pay some attention to my little girls, who are going to be big girls before I know it. I'm off. Hopefully I'll be back soon to write in this blog more. This one is depressing. Blah
