The necklace along with acouple of outfits completes what Grandpa and I bought for her. I’ll get her some books and maybe a movie when I go up to Hastings later this week.

I love places where you can sell used books, and also buy used books.

I do wish there was a place closer to here. Right now I have to go all the way to Topeka, but I guess it’s not that much of a hardship, because I go to SAM’s Club up there.

You are talking to the person that messes up putting on a new air filter on the car…*LOL* I feel pretty fortunate that I’m able to unclog my vacuum most of the time.

Mechanics and home repair is just not my thing.

Chief ended up with pneamonia and was taken to the VET center for treatment. He’ll be coming home on Wednesday. Life has seemed so empty without going down twice a day to feed and water!!! We’ve gone to visit him almost every day, but it’s not the same!! We’ll all be glad when he comes home!!

Soccer practice started this past week. The girls are excited, and can’t wait for the games to begin on the 18th. I am happy to report that the games are on Saturdays, so Dad will be able to go, and maybe even some of the other family can even come down and support them/

I love my job as a home-keeper and parent, but it’s really hard sometimes!! Right now seems especially hard. School has just started up again, so I’m trying to work myself and the girls back into a routine that works. The most difficult part I’m finding is that balance that they must have between playing, and helping out around the house. I’m not sure how to go about it. They are unwilling to help mostly, but I don’t think that’s right, since they live here to. I’m not asking for much, at least not in my opinion. I would be happy if they did 1 or 2 simple jobs every day, but they are unwilling to even do that. I’m not sure what to do!!

To top it all off I have been trying to find time to finish the website I’m designing. I still have quite a lot of work on the side pages to complete, but the main page is basically done. Maybe this weekend I can get it finished, or at least most of the way finished.

I have one pair of tennis shoes that I wear most of the time, one pair of flip flops that I wear when I take the trash out, my cowboy boots, and one pair of black high heels. That’s it, that suits my needs most of the time.

It’s a good thing the internet has information on anything! I’ve been doing a lot of internet searches lately, for things for my websites, and so I can explain to the girls what certain things are.
