Not much happened today. After J ( My Hubby) went to work I took a shower and got ready to pick Booger up from school . Went and actually picked him up and brought him home so he could get a snack and something to eat and I was going too take him to town with me because I had to run a few errands but my Mom was home and said he could stay with her. So I had a nice quiet ride to town and back got to walk around the grocery store with out someone else throwing things we don't need into the cart ( J, Booger, J being the biggest offender) . Stopped at the Dollar tree My mom gave me some money so I could pick up a few Halloween items ( they actually have some nice stuff this year if you watch what you are buying) . Lastly I cam home and My Mom had dinner made at her house so we ate over there and now I am home. I am about to clean out the fridge and sweep and mop the floor.

Weekend

What a weekend it had its ups and downs but mostly there was just Drama.last weekend My Hubsters decided he wanted to go visit his sister (only a 4Hour drive away) we weren't sure when we were going to be able to make it up there since his car is Down for the count and he is borrowing my Dad's old truck. Hubby talked to his Mom and she said oh I want to go up there I am free this weekend we can take my car and I will pay for gas ok sounds great makes the trip even cheaper for us. MIL is single now so she spent the entire weekend up on their computer on singles sites and texting other singles while we were up there so didn't see her much at all not sure why she wanted to go visit someone if she wasn't going to visit them if you know what I mean.

My MIL got on my Husbands nerves also. Once when the kids were all sitting down to eat she tried to tell my son that he had to pray to god for his meal. Now I have no problem with Booger sitting there and being quiet while the other kids prayed since that is how they are being raised but Don't make mine do it just because you think he should. She also brought presents for SIL's Boys but nothing for David.That didn't really Bother me what bothers me is that we live about an hour away from her and we invited her over for a family cook out for Booger's Birthday but she declined to come but I learned that she has drove the 4 hour drive to be at every one of SIL's boys Birthdays. I don't want her to spend all of her money on Booger but please treat him the way you treat your other grandsons he deserves that much. All though sometimes I wonder if it is me she has the problem with because she tries to punish David while I am right there and I have told her a few times not to he is my responsibility not yours. I am not her Daughter I will not let her take control of my Son while I am there.

Today I will be decluttering around the TV . We have one of those older big screen tv's and what we have been using to keep all of the electronics on is actually a metal closet organizer. My though of the idea and it works and looks pretty good also with out spending lots of money on a center made for it. I need to dust it and get rid of some things then I will move into the dining room where I have a 5 shelf metal storage rack that really needs help.I bought it for storage but it just doesn't look right when everyone just piles things onto it. My job is to put some order into the storage so it looks somewhat pleasing to the eye. then sweep and mop the floors.

Playing around!

I have added a button on the side of my page ( took me forever to figure that out LOL) if you click it, it will take you to Mrs. B 's website Confessions of a pagan soccer mom. A favorite of mine since I found it a while back. Anyways she will be doing something called the 31 days of Halloween. Sounds like lots of fun I can't wait for it.

Well I need to get to decluttering my Living room today It is amazing what junk you accumulate in a couple of years

There are going to be some great give aways from Mrs. B. Everyone go look.

So far this has been a lazy week ( although I should be cleaning right now) I am working in the bedroom this week I want to get rid of all the old clothes that are either too holey to wear or just plain don't fit me any more. I have a big box in the bottom of my closet that has been sitting there since I moved into my house 7 years ago that I never went through. I feel so cluttered right now that it isn't funny. I think that may be one reason why I am not sleeping right at night. I got rid of some stuff that has just been in the room yesterday and I can feel the difference already. also trying to declutter the living/dining room. I hope to have it done by Friday since we are having a minivacation this weekend. Nothing special just going up to see Hubby's Sister and her Family.


I have started trying to follow flylady.net she is about taking things slow since you didn't put all of the clutter into your house in one daywhy should you have to take it all out in one day. I just have to speed up her pace a bit since my mother in law will be coming to the house on Friday
night maybe to stay the night.



Well I had better go get back to work then I may have time to get down and play with the ferrets before I have to pick up my little Booger Butt ( My son).
