More lo's, KC trip etc

I did 3 count em 3 lo's last night I hope the mojo is back :-)) I dont know I have 3 still unfinished that Im not sure what to do with I really need to use more sketches I guess! The 1st one is Yolanda Williams from Simple Scrapbook Mag I totally lifted I love her style! The second is my lift of her lo. 3rd one is a lo depicting how I feel some days....like running away course I never would but stress and depression stink! Lastly I have had this picture since summer and finally got around to scrapping it. Ethan my guy one of my nephews and my neice at the fountains.

I got a call from the Developmental ped in Overland Park that I have been trying to get Owen in to see well finally they agreed to see him so our appt is set for Feb. 8th at 10:30 not looking forward to the drive its only about 3hrs but I hate riding maybe i should make Rich have me drive awhile at least until we get closer lol. One good thing tho is that Archiver's is like 2 miles from the office we are going so I told Rich I wanted to stop there WOOHOO never been and he better give me some time looking around! hehe

AHHH

Freakin' van again has a dead battery GAWSH what is up with the dang thing? I have had it for about 4 yrs now and just in the last 3 wks have I had a problem with it WHY? I dont flippin get it. Oh well maybe tonight Rich will actually be able to go to walmart which he HATES to get me a new battery I hope it works and its not a major thing.

I really cant afford a new vehicle right now at least not until the credit cards are all paid off come on w2s :-)

Move Along!

Hehe that is one of Ethan's fave song's EVER I dont know if it is because of the Baraki's or what but he loves it! I like it too.

Things are better today except the damn van now has a freakin' dead battery ugh 3 problems in the last wk

with it I wonder if it is a curse? Ok so maybe no curse but its annoying for sure! Well we have a new family member Rich and I both agreed we wouldnt have another dog accept Oscar but I think he felt bad about making me give up my babies it was incredibly heartbreaking.

INTRODUCING.......CHEWY!!!! he is the CUTEST lil Silky! yeah I know he is boy LOL but couldnt resist putting the bow in his hair he wont care at least thats I tell myself. Rich says: you do know that he is boy right? MEN.

I have been checking this gal's blog out for awhile and have seen her work at scrapbook.com I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE her work I am adding her to my blog so if ya get a chance check her out she is truely amazing!

Thank you

for coming into my driveway and throwing whatever in hell you threw at my window to break it out!
thank you for allowing me to spend 130.00 on a new window that I really can afford at this time.
thank you for causing me to break down over such a trivial thing in front of everyone.
thank you for making an otherwise ok day into another frustrating and upsetting day.
thank you for destrying my property I realize this van may not be very nice to you but it lets me cart my kids around and has enough room for the wheelchair that Owen needs.
thank you for letting me call the police and make a report even tho there is nothing they can do I appreciate wasted time.
thank you for after being upset....to see what little humor there is in this situation IE I didnt have to lock it because it wont do any good.
I certainly hope you whoever you are had a good laugh and dont come back cuz if ya do I will be waiting!

CFC Syndrome

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/boyinthemoon

Wanted to post this link, it is about a fellow CFC family I hope if you have a chance you will look at it...it really shows what life with Owen is like except Walker is older and now sadly is in a residential home. It is very heartbreaking but oh so true!

Move over Rich.....

Cuz I've got a new love! Yeppers that's right my new DYSON VAC!! I haven't done any photo editing but just couldnt resist posting this beauty lol! I dubbed "it" the Purple Dust Eater. Can't say right now it is as purty as it was in this pic but I tell ya I was SOOO looking forward to all the kids going back to school today so I could use it again~Owen hates the vac so I try not to use it when he is home.

We had a power outage here today it went off a total of three times the last time tho it stayed off for about 3 1/2 hrs thankfully tho it wasnt to cold out today and obviously its back lol. Crazy crazy!

Rich and I went out to eat Saturday, everything we wanted to try was packed course it was 60 out so I guess people thought why not go out lol~ does anyone not eat at home anymore? We finally decided to go to panera (love them btw!) not real fancy but nice oh and quiet, we then went over to border's and browsed the book section got a cool new book about photography hope I learn something. He wasnt feeling all that great what with a broken toe and cold sooo we ended up getting home about 9pm and I wanted to stay gone longer lol but I guess it's best that way we cant spend more money! That's the update for now

HMMMM!!!

ok soo I came on here this morning going to post a little bit and to my surpise the words were showing up in hindi!!! Umm ok I guess, I mean I dont speak Hindi (no offense to those who do) but HELLO WHY was my text set that way? I SPEAK ENGLISH THANKS!

Anyway I think it would be kinda neat to learn but....no one at all would read lol! Ok sooo moving on:tonight the DH and I are getting a break from the kids my sis is coming over to stay with them so we can get out for awhile nothing special really just probably to dinner and then the book store...where we can sit...quietly and actually read?! I cant wait just hope the little boys wont give her a tough time although the only one really that can be difficult to deal with is my sweet lil O!

I was looking over my gallery at Scrapjazz like some of my older stuffs etc and OH MY STARS I cant believe I thought any of the lo's were any good its sooo funny to see the old things I did SO my challenge for you today if you choose to accept it is to go thru your old lo's and see how much of a difference there is! You will be AMAZED hehe!

To tired today to think much~lil turd got me up at 6 am! Maybe next post will be better???


Guess that's it for today ***YAWN***

Christmas Tree Pics

trying the pics again

The starting of the "snow storm"

This is hanging off of our roof!

HAPPY NEW YR.

Ok soo its been awhile since I posted guess it doesnt matter I know that probably only one sweet lady reads my blog now and then! That IS better than nothing tho~nice to know someone is thinking of ya thanks Norma! Hope you all are doing well and I miss chatting with ya!

We seem to get little down time and thats OK that is life right now and ya gotta get thru it. We had a good Christmas, the kids all got tons of things, mostly from one of the aircraft co's here in town they pick a rainbows family each yr to get gifts for and we were chosen~how blessed we are!

Alex got clothes and christian books from rainbows good thing too cuz that girlie reads several a day at times must be nice lol! She got a new bible and makeup from the prison ministry, a gift card from us so she bought a cell phone been stuck to her ear since LOL. Rich's mom got her a gift card to Charlotte Russe one of her fave fave stores we have already been shopping. Go figure!

Ethan got toys toys and YEP you guessed it more toys :-)) he also got some clothes and books.

Lil turkey butt AKA Owen got clothes, toys a book and a gc from his para to old navy sooo mama went shopping for him gotta love ON he got 9 pcs of clothing for 55 dollars love the clearance sections!

I got Rich some clothes and a video game pretty boring but ahh well thats what he asked for!

I got the CUTEST lil Canon Pixma Mini Printer used it already its AWESOME!

Ordered myself a Dyson vaccuum cant wait to get it! My mom graciously let me put it on her NFM charge acct so I can pay it off, they are soooo expensive and that would be the only way possible for me to get one at this point!

I was able to get in a little scrappin time still haven't totally found my mojo but I completed 4 pages in the last few days yayyyy me!

I am looking forward to a healthy,happy new yr...trying not to let the depression get me down I know I should switch my meds as I have been on the same ones since 2001 I dont like meds and dont take them unless I have too. Both my older kiddos were med free births and I didnt take pain killers after they or Owen were born sooo as you can see it is a hard thing for me to do. I will leave you with some recent pics of our "big snow storm" we got 7.5 inches and had some pretty good sized drifts, not much to some of you but we dont usually get that much a tonce lol.
