Just a day


I'm sitting here with the windows open and the birds singing and the wind making a soft sound as it goes through the trees. It is currently 71 and I have no complaints right now. My children are taking naps, my dog and cat are sleeping and my house is pretty quiet except for those birds!

Shannen is in Savannah for his final week (we think) of training. He is in District Manager meetings from 7am-9pm. Seriously, I would rather be in a meeting all day in Savannah than most places in this world. He gets home late Friday night and then does a few job fair things next week and then maybe, just maybe, gets to really start his job!!!

Natalie got to go to a movie this morning. Now, most people would say, Uh, OK, the kid got to go to a movie. But the big deal is this--she's NEVER been inside a movie theater! Personally, to me, that's no big thing, but I guess to most normal people, it is kinda weird. She went with her little friend from school (the one with the broken arm who can't have very much fun this summer) to see Arctic Tale. The mom said Natalie was really good for the first hour and after that started fidgiting a bit and asking "how much longer" and "when is this going to be over???" Oh well... she made it through.

Landry and I got to go try and purchase a new water filter for our ice machine/water dispenser in the refrigerator. Problem was, the filters were delivered but not off the truck yet, as the nice gentleman at Sears told us. I wanted to tell HIM to go find a filter on the truck and bring it to me, as it was NOT busy and what else was he going to do on a Tuesday morning at 10am? But I didn't.

No big plans for the rest of the day here. We're gearing up for a great end of the week, though. Natalie's friend will be coming over on Thursday morning for some quality playtime and then Natalie starts gymnastics Thursday night! Friday is pick up dad at the airport day, and Saturday is Christ the King Festival night!!!! Shannen and I will be selling drink/food tickets late and (LUCKY) Sarah M will be watching the kiddos.

I just heard a door open. My free (QUIET) time is over. Peace out, people.
