The drama i call my life...

A few weeks back my moms SO(significant other) lost his job. And he isn't the brightest bulb in the box, so the possability of him finding another job soon is slim to none. So i get this bright idea to ask my mom and her SO to move in with us. In all honest, i didn't think she would accept. My mom is one of the most stubborn women i know. To my surprise, she called me last night and said they were willing to move in. That's great. It will help me and hubby out with bills and i know it will ease my mothers worries about her own bills. Right now they are paying over 600 a month rent for a single wide trailer. That's BS. Hubby and i pay just a lil over 800 a month mortgage for a 3 bedroom 2 bath house on a one acre lot. So her payments will be reduced by at least half. Which i know will make my mom happy. But it's gonna be really crowded. Like i said before, it's a 3 bedroom 2 bath. My kiddos are gonna have to share a room. Which will be fine, they will be getting the bigger of the 2 spare bedrooms. It's just fair to them that way. But now i have the job of cleaning the house. Which is a total mess! And i have to rearange Leigh Ann's room so that i can fit Seth's bed in. The good thing, is that i have about a month to get things straightened up around the house before my mom and Steve move in. The bad news, that i only have a month before my mom and Steve move in! lol.

Day four and counting...

This is day four of hubby's "shutdown". And things are going pretty good so far. He has been sorta busy the last few days. He has been cleaning for me, which makes me happy. Yesterday our washing machine broke and Kevin called his brother to borrow his spare washer. lol. Sounds wierd but it's true. His younger brother has like 2 of everything, but still lives at home. He's odd. Anywho. So hubby and his brother had to get the new washer in the house. That went well, but then the washer wouldn't work. So he had to take it apart and fix it. He got that fixed. Then late last night some older fella called him and asked him to work on his car. So today Kevin got up and was outside by 8am to work on the car. He just now got it finished. Finally! lol. So far so good i guess. I'm not wanting to kill him just yet. lol. Give it a few more days and then see if he starts driving me nuts! lol. Hope everyone is having a good week! : o )

Ugh!

I am so mad! The stupid weather people here are idiots. Sunday morning i was watching the news and the meteorologist on one channel said to expect "blizzard like" conditions today. Then about an hour later on another channel another meteorologist said to expect no snow today. And silly me, hoping that the first weather guy was right and the second wrong, i ran out and stocked up on crap in case we did get snowed in. I just want snow! Is that too much to ask for? I mean seriously! It is cold enough to snow, but it always seems to go around where i live. So aggravating! lol. Well i have to run a few errands...be back later! *Chow* : o )

Winter Storm!

Gotta get out and go grocery shopping today. They are calling for a "winter" storm to hit here monday and tuesday, so i need to go out and stock up on some essential items. In fact, they are calling for "Near blizzard like conditions". this is gonna sound odd, but i am so excited! I have lived here in TN for over 6 years now, and not once has it snowed enough to matter. I actually moved to TN from Oregon and while i lived in Oregon it never snowed where i lived. Not once. Well every year that i have lived in TN it has snowed in Oregon! This year was the most is has ever snowed in the Willamette valley, Oregon. Which is where i am from. I feel so sad! lol. Well i better get going. It's already after twelve and i'm not even out of my pajamas. lol. Have a good weekend everyone! Chow!

Relief at last!

Tonight my little man was a lot better about going to bed! I am so relieved! When daddy got home after work last night, Seth was still awake and sitting on the couch watchin a Spongebob movie. The look on daddy's face was hilarious! He was so shocked to see Seth up still. So daddy took Seth to his room and had a talk with him. Not sure what all was said, but i know he went straight to bed last night, and tonight he only came out of his room once, maybe twice! Maybe it was because i rearranged his room and made it a little cooler. I just don't know. I also let him put some stickers on his bed to add some personality to it. Who knows, maybe that's all he wanted. lol. I am just so relieved and glad he was a back to being his good lil self tonight. On another note, not sure why, but i have been an energized and organized momma tonight! lol. I have done somewhere around 6 loads of laundry, and cleaned the kids rooms. I am just on a roll tonight! I am gonna sleep good tonight. That's for sure! lol. Have good night everyone! Chow!

TGIF! So psyched!

Woohoo! It's friday...friday...friday! TGIF! Tonight is Kevin's last night at work, then he begins his 2 week vacation! I am psyched about him being home! I know i wasn't so sure about it when i first heard about it. He has been home more in the last few months than he ever was last year. I think it is good that he and I get to spend more time together, after last year, and all my "issues" that i had going on...Kevin and i needed something to strengthen our marriage. And surprisingly enough, it is the economy that is doing so. lol. With his work trying to cut back on overtime and "shutting" down for a week or two here and there t0 save some money, it has allowed Kevin to be home so much more. Kevin and I had been worried because our damn mortgage company had been breathing down our necks for money, but we finally got them back on track. So they can kiss my asteroid. lmao. And we have our lovely tax money on it's way to us, within next week hopefully, so it's all good! hahaha. That is my newest phrase to say...It's all good! lol. I had a shirt i wore when i was prego that said that, and i recently found it in the back of my closet, and decided to wear it. Yeah sure it's a lil big, since it was my prego shirt, a man's shirt actually, think i stole it from Kevin when i started getting fat. lol. Anywho...hope everyone has a fantastic Friday and an awesome weekend! I know i will! : o )
