Posting as Able

I will post as I am able! I hope that everyone had a good weekend! Exspecially all the dads! It was a good weekend here! We have plenty of projects to keep us busy and there is always a walk to be had! Shawn had a good day yesterday, it was a very relaxed day. We are waiting to hear from Job Corp this week, at least our understanding is that Kelly should be hearing this week when she will be leaving. I am very excited to see both girls get into school! Shawn and I recieved great news this past week...our older neice and her husband had their new baby, well my neice did most of the work! Little baby Eva Rose was born on june 15th. We could not be more happy for Jackie and Shaun! This morning we are enjoying some coffee before we get serious about working on the dining room! I hope you alll have a great Monday!

Sorry for the 3 Day Delay!

We have had very poor Internet service the past couple of days. I will let you know that we had a couple very laid back days. Besides a whole lot of sitting around and trying to stay cool, not much else has been going on! Today was a bit better! Shawn finally received the check for refinishing our landlord's dressers. Because he was given a check we had to set out to find a way to cash it, with out having a car. We also had some heavy thunder storms! With no ride available, Shawn and I walked to the nearest check cashing place and had it cashed, all the while we dripped all over their floors! We went home and put on dry clothes, only to head back out with Kelly, to Walmart. We had no choice to go, the pets all needed food! Tomorrow the plan is to tackle the dining room.We may have company over on Sunday and would like the house to be as presentable as possible. Shawn finally has no other work lined up, so now some of our house projects can be completed. So much of the supplies and paints were bought back when we received our taxes, there just has been no time to anything. Not really complaining though! The monies Shawn makes from the odd jobs is always a help and most appreciated! So as you can see things are pretty much same old, same old! I hope all of you have a great weekend! And all you dad have a super Father's Day!

Company

We have had people over off and on all day, just to visit or to chat with Shawn about what ever project he is working on. The dressers are complete, the second coat of all of Kelly's bedroom trim is done and the coffee table has a new clear coat! A busy day! I spoke with Kate Lynn and she is all enrolled in Job Corp in New England. She still has the 2cnd interview and then it looks like she will be heading off to Limestone, Maine. She should be there around the same time Kelly is off to Kentucky. I am so very proud of my girls! Tonight Shawn, Kelly and I are sitting on the porch, listening to the crickets! (oh yeah, there is Izzy too!) A good day! God is good too us! I hope you all have a good night!

Sorry for the Delay

I have not been online for a couple days here. The Internet has been pretty lousy and I have also been sick. I am feeling much better today, after a good night sleep. Shawn and I have been for a walk this morning. We are all hanging out for a bit enjoying the AC. In a little while Shawn will be doing some finishing sanding on our landlord's  dressers and putting a 3rd coat of clear coat on them. Our landlord came by and looked at the dressers and really seemed to love them a whole lot. He just wanted them to be a bit smoother, easy enough! We are waiting for his handyman to drop off  another can of clear coat and paintbrush. He will be also sending over a check for the work we have one. We are curious to see what he thinks the work was worth. That is our big plans for the day!

You have to be Kidding!

You have to be kidding!The 3 of us all had a stomach bug for a week and I thought we were allover it! Last night I slept very badly and was sick to my stomach! Good grief, I hope it was just a fluke!! I am so tired of being nauseous!! Today Shawn has a couple odd jobs to do and we are waiting to see when and if our landlord shows up for the dressers. I am hoping maybe I will get a nap in later. Kelly needs to follow up with the progress of things with Job Corp today. Other than  that it should be a laid back Monday! I hope you all have a good day!

Under a Tree

A very hot and humid Sunday! And another day with nothing too do! I feel pretty terrible for Kelly, she was invited to a birthday party, but was not given a date. I guess it was last night and she missed it! She was pretty upset! I do not blame her, we had bought her a new swim suite at the beginning of this month so that she could go! Well at least she has a nice new swim suite! Shawn is off at a neighbors repairing a broken window and installing some security doors and locks. She had someone break in the other night and steal her TV! So he is making sure it does not happen again. This will also give him some ciggy money! Kelly and I are just hanging out under a tree, enjoying the shade and watching the dog chew up a stick! I hope you all having a great day!

Booooring

This is my first post of the day, due to low Internet service! I wish I could tell you that I will be filling the post with tales of a busy and exciting day, no! It has been a very lazy and boring day! I am pleased that it is nearing dinner time so that I will have something to do with myself! Kelly has found amusement with my cell =hone. She is playing some game on there, where she is supposed to not kill the chicken. I have no idea! I do know she is sitting beside me giggling like a fool! Shawn is in the house napping away a ciggy craving! I hope all of you are having a better Saturday than we are!
