My husband left me this week. He is out of the country and working hard. He went up to Canada to help Aunt Lennie remodle the cabin and deck. It is a major project. So while he is playing up there ( he just sent me a pic of a 14 inch fish he caught while he was "working".) I am holding down the fort. Getting Hunter to school, I haven't made the bus once this week. Then I go all the way to the northside and drop of some meds for a client (at lease I get paid) Then all the way home again to get the girls ready for their day. Gymnastics on Weds. Gardening in between, Hunter joined a basketball team and practices after school on M/W. Thank goodness i don't have to pick him up, I just have to be here when she drops him off. Homework, birthday party, scouts, and then their is work. I have to do all my husband does plus my own work. Then I have to put it in the computer and it is never ending. My mom came over on Sunday for Jayden's b-day and she ended up doing all the dishes that had been sitting there for days. Thank goodness for mom's.

Birthday Time

Well, it's that time of year again. September 6th Sophia's birthday flew by. We had out of town guests. Then September 19th was Jayden's birthday. She always is sooo excited about it. He primary teachers gave her a homemade puzzle. It is made out of wood and shaped like a unicorn (cause that's her favorite animal right now.) I think it is very cool. Then a couple days after her birthday she walks into her bbsitters house and announces that she is five. and she is starting to do my things because she is five now. I will have to add pictures later.

Yesterday my little girl, soon to be 5, learned how to swing on her very owned. I was so proud of her. We have trying all summer, and now it's fall she just went out and did it. I had to start her but then she just kept going and going. What a fun afternoon we had.

Homework

Hunter is enjoying doing his homework w/Nan. He had a good day w/Nan after school.

I Love My Boss

I was able to get a new printer/scanner/copier/faxer. I had to go in and use my bosses fax and copier. I explained that my old one doesn't hook up to the new internet. So she said she would buy me one. A nice one, I am so excited.

Here it is....

I have been dying to post pictures of the garden but I have only had time to take pics of the harvest.

Surprise!

Ok, so today my husband thought he would surprise me by having someone come in and clean out carpet. Well, the only problem is that we have sit through a demonstation. @ 12 a girl shows up knocking and ringing, I throw on some clothes (the Flu hit the girls last night) and answer. "Is Jimmy here?" "No." We had an apt @ 12 to ....." I didn't really listen to what else she said. I was thinking there goes another 2 hours of my life. We had one of these people in before and it takes them forever. Jimmy is conveniently at an apt w/a client. I call him and he explains that he wanted to "surprise" me by having our living room carpet cleaned. So I tell the girl to go ahead. Then when she starts her little spill she tells me she hasn't been doing this very long and .... again, I stop listening. Kirby Vaccuums. Jayden pipes up and says "Kirby, that is my best brothers name." She ended up leaving because she had to puke. I just need to remember it is the thought that counts.

New Invention

Jayden got this crazy idea to take her toothbrush, and instead of putting the water on that, she would mix the toothpast w/ the water. So now when she brushes her teeth and puts toothpaste on her brush, she gets the watered down toothpaste all over the floor, sink, faucet, and usally the light switch. (don't ask me how she does that)
