The last few days had so much happen! So, today will just be a bit of a run down of all the excitement going on here. Plus don't forget that $25.00 Kroger Gift Card I'm giving away!!! It ends tonight and your chances are great!
Well, let me start out with Hubby! He got a call at the last minute Friday to play at the Cigar Club when the guy scheduled didn't show. Lucky for us he got to do the show and made enough to pay his truck note this month. Woooohoooo!!!!!
We had a two birthday parties on Saturday for four different people. Hubby played that night for one of the birthday parties too! It was a nice.
Sunday was a bit of a blurr. I didn't wake up in time for Church. Other than that I don't remember much of it. I think we stayed around the house and rested.
Monday and Tuesday Hubby worked and Will and I did errands. I also have been working in the garden the last few days pulling weeds and getting it ready for more planting. By Tuesday I was able to plant. I planted some more zucchini, carrots, and pumpkin. Now I'm praying I get something to grow out of it.
Between all this, Will has started pulling this "I'm not going to listen and will talk back" thing. So, I got the idea to start a listening chart. I will be posting more about that another time. It is working to some degree though.
Wednesday Hubby had a show at The Porch Coffee House. It was a good show, but at the last minute our babysitter backed out. So, lucky for us it is a coffee house (that serves adult drinks) and we could bring children in. I let Will come for about an hour and a half. He loved it. He is a little performer though! He almost stole the show. I took him to a friends home when he started getting tired and cranky though.
Thursday we took the money Hubby made from that show and bought Will a new bike. His old one was getting to small. I took him for a check up that morning and he is now 43 lb and 41 in tall. He isn't even 4 yet! He is going to be a big boy like his daddy!
So, my question is...What should I do with the old bike? Should I put it in a garage sale? Should I try to sell it on eBay? I don't know anyone who has a little boy around here who could use it. All the children around here are girls or new born boys. What do you suggest?
Today I just have some random rambling about my life. You can read along if you like.
1. How hard is it to get FOX where you live? Apparently we have to pay outrageous and still don't get the local FOX chanel. I spent HOURS yesterday on the phone with two different satellite companies and an online company affiliated some how with one of them. After all that I thought I had it, but then Hubby tells me he doesn't want it because it is a FOX out of Chicago and so when the Saints games come on they will not be played because the Chicago are wants to watch their team not the Saints. He only wants FOX for the Saint's games, so that wasn't going to work. Finlay I decided to stay with the satellite company I am with so I don't have to make a 24 month commitment to the other one. The plus side to all this was that I got my bill lowered by $18.00. Go got rid of the Starz channels and then found out they had been charging me for something they discontinued. (They just never told their customers that the charge for that particular thing was discontinued. You actually had to call them to have the charge stoped on your bill! My question is "How long have I needlessly been paying for this?")
2. My phone was also burning up with my insurance company. Hubby has to have the windshield of his truck changed in order to have it inspected. He just didn't tell me it needed to be inspected by the end of this month. I will be on the phone with them again today.
3. It was nasty rainy out side, so Will and Charlott where stuck in the house. Will got to play watch too many cartoons and play with play-doh, the dog just watched me with a boring look on her face as I cleaned the kitchen and bathroom, then moped the floors. She found the vacuum cleaner and the wet floors a little fun though.
4. Today I get to wash clothes and do more cleaning. The kids get to stay inside again most of the day today. I also have to think of something to cook for dinner! I am limited since I have made up my mind not to go to the store and spend any more money at the moment. The car needs gas in it too!
5. Will refused to clean his toys up last night until the very last minute and so, missed his bath (he didn't get dirty yesterday anyway). Today he is driving me crazy about why he can't have a tattoo. When I explained to him that it won't stick because he is dirty, he asks me why I would dare say he is dirty. I kindly remind him he didn't take a bath because he didn't clean up his toys in time. Oh! he said and walks away. I'm sure that conversation will repeat itself many times today since it isn't even 9:00 am yet!
I hope everyone else has a great day today!
