Good Morning!

I actually hate mornings!  The ones when I have to get up early anyway.  I love Cade and I miss him when he's gone, but man I miss sleeping in!  Anyway....What have I been up to?  Let's see:
Alex came on last Sunday!!!  I'm so happy to have him home for a while.  :)   I like having all my chicks in the nest, under my wings.  I'm really going to miss him when he leaves for school.  I think I've gotten "most" of what he needs.  "Dorm" stuff.  Comforter, sheets, towels, washrags, stocked up on toiletries, a few snacks, laundry detergent, fabric softener, first aid stuff, etc.  I even bought cough drops, Motrin, Zicam, etc for when he starts to feel a cold coming on.  OH and hand wash!  LOL  Those that know me, know how important that is!  I'm under no illusion that he'll use it though.  :)

In other news....hmm....not much going on.  Band camp started this week for Kayla so she's gone from 9-2 every day.  Alex and Dylan have been hanging out some.  Alex even took him to the pool with him on Monday!  Last night they had their cousins spend the night.  Swam.  Rented movies.  They're still sleeping right now. Cade's been pretty quiet this morning, so he hasn't woken them up....yet! 

As for me...well...I'm still trying to lose ten more pounds.  I lost it all last summer and around four months ago I gained 10-12 back and I cannot get it to move!  It's making me so mad!  I'm eating terrible. IF I snack at all it's something I'm "allowed" to have or if it's not, I skip something else to make up for it.  AND....I've been walking!  Grrr......
Dinners this week, so far have consisted of:  Monday- scout cook out here, so it was hot dogs, baked beans, macaroni salad and desserts.  Tuesday- Breakfast casserole, biscuits and gravy.  Today- BBQ meatballs, mashed potatoes and fresh corn on the cob a friend gave us yesterday. 

I guess I'm signing off for now.  I need to wake up Kayla to get ready for band, walk my mile with Cade, clean bathrooms and FORCE myself to do the dreaded bills that I keep putting off.

See ya!
