I got ripped off

It's been awhile, but sometime in the middle of the night sat/sun someone broke into my car and stole my leaf blower. They attempted to take the mower too but probably didn't want to mess with it because Dave has it jerry-rigged and it looks funny, or they bashed their hand attempting to get it out. Lisa N will remember when I had 2 things stolen out of my truck in her neighborhood a lifetime ago. I had to spend $160 to replace it yesterday. Yah THAT'S in the budget!

grrrr


The Christmas decorations LOOK like they may be coming down. I noticed the nativity scene is gone, but all the Christmas trees are still up. Maybe by St Patty's day.

I am still working on the photos. I need to take Jason to the park and take them with me and sit and finish them.

My newest interest is going through all the family China and Silver. TONS of it. I think I have inherited it from both sides of the family. Lucky me. Service for 12 of the old Jewel Tea pattern, my moms wedding china, my grandmothers rose bud pattern. Not to mention all the silver. 6 sets! 2 sterling silver sets, and 4 silver plate sets. My sister will get the one I don't want. The other sets were given to me by two different aunts, my Ham anut and Anna whose stuff I got just before I got married, and my grandmother's set. So 5 sets for me! That's nuts. I have enough to host the entire Dugger family. If you don't know who the Duggers are watch TLC.

Quick Update (not that anyone really cares)

I filled up one whole photo album. (500 photos) on to album #2. Actually I doubt I will fill this one up. I'm almost done with the actual photos of Jeff. After he hits about 5 we get the digital camera for Jason and I don't have as many actual film shots of him.

The Christmas decorated house is still decorated. I have GOT to take a picture of it. It looks like less than it did, but it's still covered. I guess they leave it up all year??

off to take jeff to school


22 years and counting.....(our wedding anniversary was last Sat)

Well that didn't last long

My official New Years Resolution, "to avoid Disney all year" has been broken.Lisa Kuder and I have decided to go to Disneyland in June after Jeff gets out of school. The boys may or may not come along. It will be FUN!! Lisa and I went to Disneyland once soon after I got married when Dave went to Kansas and I didn't want to go. That trip was in August and it was HOT. I also didn't know how to navigate crowds back then. I went last year the exact same week in June and had a ball, so I think it will be fun fun fun. Dave wants to go camping so I think the boys will want to go camping instead of Disneyland. Actually if Jeff wanted to tag along with us it would be fine but he wants to know where Dave is going to camp first. As for mom, I asked my sister to please watch mom while we are gone. I think I will be able to drive her to Chris's house and drop her off. *I'll keep you posted on how THAT goes. I may have to ask Larraine to stay over again we'll see.
