Well Here is some Of my New Year's "Hopefuls " for 2008

1- Learn how to do something different this year- Example.. either how to make a Quilt, I have a friend that just made her first one and she said it was SO EASY.. I also have caught a interest in learning how to can.. Like Homemade Jellies, and Pickles.

2- Be More involved in church activities and some Small Group things.

3- Stay in tune with my new job and Hopefully this will be a good change for me . :-)

I am thinking of more things and will be posting alot more this year.

I am Back to blogging once again... We had some sad News today ... WE got a call from one of David's teachers (which is very Unusual) . She Told us that one of David's VERY Good Friends Died on December the 24th .. He Died in his sleep due to Heart Failure. I CRIED for a Hour!!! I just saw this kid last month and talked with his mom.. I saw the Obit. today and I could not even get thru it all. David is so SAD . I just cannot Imagine what his Parents are going thru! God Bless his Family!

Merry Christmas Early

Merry Christmas to Everyone... I will Be still Checking Email and my Usual Things.. But blogging will Be on the Back Burner Till at least till After Christmas. I Have Been so BUSY trying to get things done and Checking in on Andy's Parents the last two weeks , it has left me Very Little time for anything else.. Andy's Dad has Been Seriously Ill the last 3 weeks so, Andy And I have been Running back and forth to their house (which is about 30 miles ) from where we live.
He is heading for a short term Nursing Facility until he gets stronger.
**********************
The kids are SO Excited about Christmas and so Ready for their Gifts! The Rattling of the gifts have Begun!

I have One More gift Before we leave friday for my parents.. I have everything done but one Item For My Little RY MAN..

And just a heads Up for Jen ... I Bought Luke Some Symbols for Christmas so we can have a Bang up Christmas I hope you and Chris do not mind . Plus, I thought it would Be a good thing to have that help wake you up in the morning. :-) (Snicker,Snicker) .

Last day for me for the temp job I have until I start my Permanent Job on January 7th. YEA

PFFT!

A) I am COLD.. Plus it is snowing More

B) My feet are wet and damp-CUZ I just had to go the the Grocery store for some Odd's and ends.

C) I am Cranky

D) I am Definitely wanting no more adventure in the snow - as my parents would say.

E) Did I mention that it is icy out today??

We had a open house at the High school where David Will be attending next Fall... I was Slightly Overwhelmed with not only the Curriculum ,but just the sight of the Credits they have to have. Then Terror came over because David has 2 or 3 Pull Put Basis at the middle school level (which by the way Now one told me that this will happen at high school) , By Sure Luck I ran into David's Counselor's at his current school and by chance she will be at his high school next year also, WHAT A BLESSING!! She assured me and Andy that they will be helping David get the Right Classes and Get with us at his IEP Meeting Coming up closer at the end of Year....Much To my surprise He might not be pulled out as much next year for help because he is doing so well in his Work. **SIGH** of Relief for Us. Can you tell I am really not ready for the High School Level??

Happy Snow Day

Well, It has been snowing since about Noon Today... I did Manage to get "some" Christmas gifts done before the snow started .. I just have The Roper Kids to buy for , My parents, and Few other odd and ends, Luckily I know Exactly to get them , so it will not be to much of a hassle...
8-11 inches of snow is expected for today so I am not sure if I will be going back out or not.

David is having his Basketball Pictures Taken on Monday at school , so I had to Purchase Pictures for team pictures, Individual pictures and etc.. He is excited that he is is getting a group picture of his Basketball Buddies.. (Unlike Me I was like the only White kid on the team) LOL.

On another note we are going to a Curriculum Fair at the High School David will be going to next year on Monday Night, so we can get a Idea how the schedules work and etc. So I think the will be a Eye opener for everyone. He is growing up way to fast for me.
