Happy Tuesday.. How are you all doing today?? We are all doing good here.. I am tired, but that is my own fault I stayed up to long last night visiting with some friends.. We enjoy getting together cooking supper and sitting around talking or surfing the web while the kids play at the park across the street, in the yard or watch television. We have a good time and the kids have fun playing with their friends.. |

Today I went to work for a bit and then when I got off i went to Jamesport for a bit.. I just needed a couple of things and wanted to go over there while I had time to run over by myself... Tonight for supper I am making BLT's and salad.. I am tired tonight and just want an easy night here with the kiddos.. We have cleaned house, did the dishes and now I need to cook cupper then maybe make some cookies as well.. The sun is shining here and the humidity has gone down quite a bit so yes it is hot outside, but not miserable like it has been. God is so good He knows how much miserable humidity we can take before He gives us a break.. I am so thankful for His love, grace, mercy and the joy that only He can bring. Well I am off for now need to get supper going... God Bless, Mars |

Hi there.. How is everyone doing?? It has been awhile since I have posted here.. Lots of things have been going on..... My kids and I have been having a great time together... The 4th was pretty fun.. We fished, ate and shot off fireworks then the boys camped with poppa.. We had lots of fun. Poppa took the girls camping on the 3rd for Jills 13th birthday... They had a blast.. So life has been interesting, but all will be ok.. Please pray for the my kids as their dad and his wife have really pushed them away.. Dad let the stepmom say some very nasty things to my oldest daughter and they are upset... Well I gotta run for now.. I will soon.. God Bless, Mars |

I can't believe that May is almost gone.. The kids have been on summer break for a week now. Tomorrow they are supposed to be going swimming for a birthday party.. I sure hope tomorrow is warmer than today. LOL.. I am supposed to have internet at my house again on Friday.. WOOHOO I am so darn excited and it will be high speed too. I can't believe it, but finally I will have it and I personally cannot wait to get it.. Lots of things have been happening with my family and we are adjusting and doing pretty good. Things are going good and all is ok. I do not want to talk much about what is or what has gone on as really it is noones business what happens in our house. I am not trying to be mean or hateful, but it is between God, my husband and I. God is in control and is working and that is what matters to me. I can't wait till I can post again everyday or so and catch up on my friends.. I miss reading ya'lls blogs everyday.. I am still helping out at the scrub store and I really enjoy it.. Well I better get off here for now, but wanted you to know I was thinking of ya'll and missing you... God Bless, Mars |

I work the hours the kids are in school, might be a bit tricky since school is going to be out as of Tuesday at 1pm.. I am excited about summer break this year. I am not sure about anything for the summer yet, however I do know that the gas will keep us close to home at least most of the time... I have been off my menu and such as well and can't wait to get back into my routines.. Anyway I just wanted everyone to know that I am still alive and well and will be a regular poster again soon..

For 2 days in a row it has been so nice.. Today it is a bit windy, but the temp is wonderful.. I had the kids go out and clean up the yard today and they are all outside playing and I have the doors open so the sun can shine in and it is just amazing.. I know that we are in March now so that means that spring can't be that far away and so I am like woohoo getting antsy for it.. The sun keeps peeking out and I know there is a chance of rain today, but I am hoping the Lord blows it so it goes around. Our ground is so soaked from all the rain, sleet, snow and etc that it is so muddy everywhere.. I think that with the wind blowing as it is today it will dry up somewhat as long as it doesn't go ahead and rain.. Please pray for a dry day here today..:) I am cleaning house like a mad woman today.. I am starting the whole spring cleaning deal. I have more to do plus I need to get my menu and grocery list ready for March as I am going to the grocery on Tuesday.. Well I hope ya'll have a wonderful and blessed Sunday.. God Bless Mars |

Well after 2 snow days in a row it is friday and the kids are back in school. I have a couple of errands to run today and that is it... Yesterday had some excitement.. My oldest son Jordin cut his big toe with a chainsaw.. When my dad called I had visions of his big toe hanging by a shred, but I took him to be checked out and although it hurts really bad it made him much more mad than hurt.. He is going to have a sore toe for a few days, but he was really lucky no stitches or anything.. Of course it took forever in the er to figure this all out, but Praise God he is ok and his toe will be better soon.. Well I need to finish the kitchen, dishes and take a shower.. I will post a picture of his toe later for you to see.. God Bless, Mars |

First of probably most of you are in bed or getting ready for bed and I would like to be, however I did not sleep well last night. I tossed and turned and flipper and flopped and finally went to the couch for an hour and then back to bed and well I think I went to sleep sleep at 4ish and got up at 7.. I was going to take me a little nap after the kids left this am, but Steph came up and we started painting some old windows and barnwood. We got a couple projects done and still have more waiting.. We are doing a trash to treasure thing here.. Anyway then we went driving around to try to find her a new house and then came home because it was so darn cold.. Yesterday you did not have to wear a coat and today it was like 5 degrees with a windchill of -10.. Can you say BBBBBBBRRRRRRRRR.. Anyway I have the washer, dryer and dishwasher going. My hubby had to work late tonight so I am having a few minutes to myself and then I will head to bed.. Lots of things are going on here.. However I am tired and I think I will do a final nightly walk through and try to get some sleep.. For those who have not gone to bed and are reading this goodnight and for those who are reading in the morning.. Good Morning.. God Bless, Mars |

I awoke at 7:30 after having not slept very well and went to the bathroom. I went back and laid down for a little bit longer as my husband had informed me it was to early to get up and do anything.. LOL So I got back up at 8:20 and made pancakes and bacon for 13 people.. Cleaned the kitchen, started the laundry and some other things.. Then I folded laundry and straightened up things and it was time to make a quick lunch and then one of my extras left and then about 2ish my ex husband came and got our 4 and now I have 2 of hubby's kids and 3 extras for a bit longer then I will have 3 of ours and 3 extras till about 5pm I think.. I bought me some new fabric yesterday and well I am headed in to make some pillowcases in just a bit.. I need to fix supper, but to tell you the truth I am not hungry and I have no idea what to cook.. Maybe hubby will offer.. LOL I need to write a few more emails and get the last load of laundry in the dryer and tomorrow will be a pretty relaxing day.. WOOHOO.. Well I am off.. have a wonderful evening.. God Bless, Mars |
