It is early here in SC.  The sun hasn't came out yet.  I thought I would pop in and say hello before my day starts.  Dh has left for work.  Vicki is still sleeping.  We are going to do school today.  We are also going to walk.  I am truly enjoying walking.  It really makes me feel better.  I know I need it.

I think we are suppose to get some rain this evening.  I am so glad.  We are truly in need of rain.  I love to smell the smell after a good rain.  It is so cleansing. 

I did get to go out for my birthday.  Vicki and I ate Mexican.  Dh had to work late.  It was one of those things.  We didn't get to church last night.  We just have one car right now and he came home late.  I also went and bought Vicki a jacket and some socks.  It is hard to find clothes for girls that are decent and don't have logos on them.  I went to Walmart.  I just wanted a fleece jacket.  I finally found one.  It was a Hanes. 

I apologize to Living Simple for not saying thank you for making my blog look so nice.  She is the one who works on my blog.  I couldn't do it if I tried.  I will say thank you at this time.

I guess I better run and get some stuff done.  If you read this please say a prayer for Vicki.  They are changing her mood medicines and life isn't fun around here.  She is a good daughter but her mood disorders needs the right medicine. 

Take care and enjoy the day.

Today is my 44th birthday.  I am coughing with allergies awful bad.  At least I can talk.  I didn't think I was going to be able to do that. 

It is a beautiful day here in SC.  I think it is suppose to be in the 70's today.  The wind will be blowing a lot.  That is okay.  We really could use some rain.  I hope and pray we get some.

We are going to work on school.  Vicki and I are going out for lunch.  She needs to go get her allergy shots.  We are going to do that today.  Dh has to work late.  They are getting ready for some kind of big golf tournament.  I don't if we will make to church tonight.  My brother had to borrow my Jeep.  I am having to borrow my Mom's car to get Vicki her shots. 

I guess that is all I know this morning.  I hope and pray everyone has a very blessed day.

It has been cloudy here in SC today.  I am glad.  I am so ready for fall.  I started the day with a sore throat.  I had to teach Sunday School this morning.  We also had Kid's choir practice.  We are starting to work on Christmas music.  Christmas is beautiful but so hard to sing.  I am so tired and I am starting to ache all over.  I guess I am coming down with a cold.  I don't have time for that.

Vicki starts coop tomorrow.  I am excited for her.  She will get to meet new friends.  She really needs to get out and meet people.

I guess that is about I know for now.  Take care and enjoy the evening.

It is going to be a beautiful day here in SC.  It is suppose to be in 70's.  That sounds wonderful to me.  I really like this time of year.  I love to watch the leaves change.  It reminds me how beautiful God made our world.  He really loves to do something that good for us.

We are going to school today.  I need to mow my Mom's grass.  It is looking a little shabby.  I also have to take Miss Vicki walking.  We go uptown and walk of an evening now.  She has gained weight because of her medicine.  I think the walking helps make her tired at night also.

I guess I need to get my day started.  I pray everyone has a very blessed day.  God is good and worthy to be praised.

It has rained some here during the night.  Praise the Lord.  We can really use all the rain we can get. 

Vicki woke up with a real bad sore throat.  Her throat is really red.  She doesn't have a fever or blisters.  I am grateful for that.  Strep throat is really going around here.  The public schools are having a good bit of it.  I am grateful she isn't in public school.  We had a little girl at church with the strep throat. Vicki is coughing and her throat is real red. 

Not much planned today.  We are going to try to do some school.  She needs to do some. 

We have started walking of an evening.  I really enjoy walking.  I think that time to me is peaceful. 

I guess I will run and get some work done.  Take care.

It is beautiful day here in SC.  We are kind of laying low today.  We have school to do.  I have plenty of laundry also.  We are going walking up town afterwhile.  I am going to start making Vicki walk of an evening.  She has gained so much weight lately.  I think walking will help her.  The medicine she is on makes her want to eat.

Our week really looks slim.  I am so grateful.  We have really doing so much lately.  I really enjoying just being home and relaxing. 

I guess that is about all I know right now.  Take care and enjoy the day the Lord has blessed us with.

My prayers are with the ones who have lost so much during hurricane Ike.  May God bless you each one.

I remember what I was doing 7 years ago today.  I was at home.  I hadn't even turned on the tv when my cousin called me.  She told me what was going on.  I was in total shock.  I was scared to death.  I don't even live anywhere near the places that anything went on.  I was so nervous all that day and the days to follow.  The people who lost their lives and the people who lost loved ones.  It is a day that I will never forget.  I pray God will comfort the ones who lost loved ones in that awful day. 

Today I have a funeral to attend.  Vicki also has to go to the neurologist.  She had a MRI ran in July.  The spot in her brain hadn't changed any.  I guess they will tell me that today.  I guess also they will dismiss her.

It is cloudy here today.  We really need rain real bad.  I hope we can get some.

I guess I best go now.  I have to get us ready to face our day.  Take care enjoy the day.

I am sitting here this morning in the quiet.  Vicki is still sleeping.  She really needs the rest.  It was raining for a little bit this morning.  I heard the rain on top of the trailer.  I love to hear it rain on a trailer.  It is so peaceful. 

We have a lot to do today.  Vicki has school.  She also has a doctor's appt. this afternoon.  She really needs a med change or something.  Her moods are really bad.  I have to make a cake.  My dear friend called my yesterday and her Mom died.  Cindy and I were really close through my teenage years.  Her Mom was my 2nd Mom.  I really feel for them right now. 

I guess I will get off and get my shower.  Enjoy the day the Lord has blessed you with.

Vicki went to her back to school bash at church today.  They played in the water.  They had a good time.  Vicki is really tired.  We came home to no water.  I really need to be busy cooking.  We are having a reunion for my family tomorrow.  We are also having a singing at our church tomorrow night after the singing we are having finger foods.  That should be fun.  Randall and his brother are working on it.  I hope they get fixed soon.  We have spring water.  Sometimes it just goes out.

I don't know much more than that.  I will run and try to figure out what we are going to do for supper.  I had bought chicken gizzards.  I really them.  I hope that what we can eat.  Take care and enjoy the day.

It was a beautiful day in SC.  The temps were in the 80's.  The breeze was blowing.  It was nice.  We really need rain.  I was hoping that storm in Florida would bring in some rain.  I guess it won't.

We got school done today.  Vicki is really having a time in math.  I really think she just doesn't want to do it.  I don't know what to do about it.  I did join a homeschool group today.  I really think Vicki will like that.  She needs being around her peers.  This is a big group.  She isn't used to that.

I guess I really don't know much more.  Take care and enjoy the evening the Lord has blessed us with.

It is a beautiful day here in SC.  I think we are suppose to be in the low 90's.  We have school today.  I am enjoying working on the history and science we have chosen this year.  We are doing Apologia Science with Astronomy.  We have chosen Unit Studies on Presidents for History.  This being a Presidential election year I thought that would be wonderful.  We have what they call starry nights at a place called Roper Mountain.  We can go there and look through a huge telescope at the stars.  I want to do that real soon.  I think Vicki will enjoy that.  She has a telescope but a huge one with people who knows what they are doing will be great. 

We have our boys and girls clubs at church tonight.  That should be fun.  Vicki loves her Joybelles.  She learns a lot.  I am thankful for the groups we have.

I guess I will get off and start my day.  I need my shower.  Take care and enjoy the day the Lord has blessed us with.

It has been an eventful day.  We did school.  I am so glad to get a routine back.  I kind of feel lost without one.  I guess we all need structure to a certain point.

It was a beautiful day here in SC.  It was also hot.  The public school kids started back to school today.  I guess their was mixed emotions about that.  I was always glad to see my friends but not for the work.

I made a chicken pot pie for supper tonight.  I also made some ranch mashed potates.  They were good.  Vicki really likes them.

It is kind of peaceful here tonight.  Vicki is asleep.  DH is at work.  They are having beaver problems.  He is suppose to be helping with that.  He works on a golf course.  Beavers come out at night.  I don't know.

I don't know much more than that.  Take care and enjoy the night the Lord has made.

It has been a long time since I have got to blog.  We have been very busy.  Dh had a heart attack.  That has been very emotional.  We are  strained financially very bad.  I guess my heart hasn't been into blogging because of this.  Vicki is having a hard time.  I don't her meds are working.  I know the Lord doesn't put on us no more than we can stand.

We have worked on school today.  We also started school back 2 weeks ago. 

I guess I will run and try to finish school.  I also have to fix supper.  Take care and enjoy the day.

I hope everyone has had blessed Father's Day.  We took dh out for lunch and supper.We visited his Father.  My Father is dead.  Vicki got to go swimming for the 1st time this year.  She was really excited about that.  We finally got the pool where they can swim.  PTL!!!!  She needs that to get some exercise and have a good time.

We haven't seen any rain for the month of June here in SC.  I pray the Lord sees fit to let it rain here soon.  I know people's gardens are really hurting.  My Mom's grass is dead.  We don't have any grass yet.  Our dirt is so hard.  It is awful.  I think it is really going to take a major storm to bring rain.

I guess I will run.  We are watching the Deadlest Catch.  We didn't have church tonight because of Father's day.  Enjoy your night.

It has been a very busy week.  We just have went to much.  Today we helped Dh's brother plant some corn for chickens.  He got 20 chickens and 2 roosters.  I hope we can get started in being homesteaders. 

I recieved most of my curriculum for next year.  I got my Bible from Rainbow Resource and I really think I am going to like it.  I have always had trouble finding a Bible curriculum.  I think we will start back sometime in July.  I like to get ahead of public school.  I might wait till the first week of August. 

I am sitting here with clouds all around and no rain.  We are in need of rain.  We haven't had any for the month of June.  I pray we get some soon. 

I know the people in Iowa would love to send some people some rain.  My prayers are with them right now. 

I guess I will get off here and call a friend of mine.  Her dh died over 2 years ago and today is her anniversary.  I think I will check on her.  Take care and enjoy the evening.

It's hot here in SC. It is in the 90's.  I'm ready for fall.  I don't like hot weather.  Summertime can be fun but it gets to hot for me.  I am more of a cool person.

We didn't do much here today.  We stayed home and bummed.  It was really to hot.  The air is bad also.  Vicki doesn't need to be outside in it.  She can't do the air with her allergies.

Vicki is suppose to spend the night with my Moma tonight.  She is there now. I know she will stay long enough to go to McDonald's.  She loves that place. 

I guess I will run and get ready to grill some hamburgers.  Take care and enjoy the day.

I woke up this morning and realized I have been out of school 26 years today.  I am glad that part of my life is over. 

We don't have alot planned today.  Vicki has storytime today.  We have church tonight.  Vicki loves the Girl's Club that is the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month.  I am really glad that she likes it.

It is suppose to hot today.  I think it is suppose around 93 degrees.  I don't like hot weather.

I guess I will run and get Vicki's day started.  She wants Ramen Noodles for breakfast.  I am cooking them now. 

Take care and enjoy the day.

We are fixing breakfast.  Vicki loves those Ramen noodles.  She is not normal breakfast person.  I really worry about that.  The dietician told me not to worry.  I always try to make sure she has something for breakfast.

Not much planned here today.  It is going to be hot today.  I don't think we have anything that has to be done today.  I got most of my order done for next year's school done yesterday.  PTL!!!!  I just hate getting stressed out about school.  I always worry am I doing the right thing.

I guess I will run and get her breakfast done.  I also need to find me something to eat. 

Take care and enjoy the day.  The Lord has blessed us very much.

It is a hot day here in SC.  We have been to town today.  We also walked to Grandma's.  It was nice to get out of the house. 

I have order a good bit of Vicki's curriculum for next year.  I mailed some it and ordered some online.  I still have a little bit more to go.

I believe we will have hamburger helper for supper.  That sounds pretty good to me.  I think I will fix green beans and garlic bread.  I might have some tomatoes with it also. 

I think this summer we will do the free movies, storytime, and whatever goes on at church.  That should keep us busy. 

I guess I will run and start supper.  Take care and enjoy the evening.
