This Weekend

Friday an hour before I got off work I recieved a call from a big acct that I have been working on. He wants to buy it. It's like a 21,000 dollar acct. That made me feel really good. I work hard at my job and it is nice sometimes to get recognition for my hard work. I really try hard in my life in general to do the best that I can. Thank the Lord for his grace in my life.
Then Teena called and wanted me to take her and try and find something for her to ware to David's wedding. I reall felt like just going home but I said yes. I love my sister and we do not get together very often just the 2 of us. It wound up being a really good night. I found a nice top and a pretty dress for 22 bucks. Teena found hers in that same place. Then Teena offered to buy my dinner. That really surprised me cause that is really rare.
Saturday I worked on my blue room. Its my new room for crafting, stamping and creating. My room. I cannot decide which of the rooms I want to totally make mine. I like the other one cause I can see more of the house from there. Matt wants to keep that one for whatever reason. I guess I will wait until he paints the other room. I guess I should give him his choice since technicly I have the master bedroom and this other room. :) oh well he put me there. Anyway back to my blue room. I love have this space and place. I did get in there and put together a few cards. Then I babysat for Christi and Juanita. I am the babysitter. Dylan would not go to sleep. I would try and lay him down and all he would do is cry. I tried laying him right by me on the couch and he just did not want to go to sleep. When they first got here Eric & Brandon were rough housing and Eric bumped his head on the fireplace. So I had to lay the law down and get them settled down. I guess they were just hyped up from David's wedding (my ex). I was invited to go but I think that is just weird. Plus I did not want to put any damper on Darcy's wedding. I would not want that. I did not want to be sitting there thinking about the what ifs and what was. I don't know its just weird. Its not that I love or want him, its hard to put in words. The Lord knows what is in my heart. Its all in his hands.
I really hope that Christi or Shawna never have to go through what I have lived through. It is really hard to know your place and where you belong. I is an awefull feeling. The family is broken and extended at the same time. Really weird.
I hope and pray for a good week. I already feel tired already.
I pray for grace, peace and rest for all of my family and friends.

Birthdays and Life

Yesterday was my snoogers birthday, she turned 26. WOW! She has grown up be be such a beautiful young woman. I soo pray that her life gets better & better. She moved into her Apt with Jaden & Peyton. I really think that Jaden is so enjoying there family time. They are so sweet. I love them all so very much. Each of them have a piece of my heart. David has been comimg around more and I know that the boys have enjoyed that. Hopefully he will learn to be more a part of their lives. They need there Daddy. I pray for my daughter, for strength and courage. I know how hard it is to go it alone.
Todd's Mimi died last week and her funeral was on Saturday. She was a sweet lady. I am so glad that she took to Christi like she did. I know it meant a lot to Christi. The things that the preacher said about her and Grandpa, one can only hope to have that kind of legacy. I cannot believe that Todd can here that and know that and be the way he is to Christi. Really weird to me. I wish so bad that Todd would get help for his bi-polar. In some ways I believe that he loves Christi but then others , I don't know he just makes me dought.
I pray for my babies and their families. God knows all our needs.

Another TGIF!

It just seems like time flies by so very fast. WOW! Everytime I turn around another day, its always Monday and its always Friday. If that makes sence. It does to me.
I have had a sinus infection for about 4 weeks. I have not felt well. Plus have had a lot of changes going on. Shawna and the boys moved to their Apt last wensday. I am happy for her. She deserves her own home. The boys do too! I love them all so very much. I think I have felt a little empty nest for the I don't know how many times. I pray for each of my daughters and their families they all mean so much to me. They are my world. My heritage, precious!
I have to find the balance between it all. I have to spend time with my husband Matt. I am thankfull for him. He has been so very patient with me and my girls and the things that we have been through. I know that he loves each of the girls too. And he is experiencing the bond that you get from children. Jaden, Eric, Peyton & Dylan. 4 little miracles. He thinks the world about those boys.
We are having a stamping class tomorrow here at my house. I am excited and I pray it goes well. Juanita has gotten interested and I know that it will be good for her. And Ana really needs to have an outlet in her life too! Shawna is gonna watch the 4 buggers so Christi can consentrate on the class :).
Thanks for listening. I know it is just babble sometimes. Just getting things out.
