Rainy Days and Fridays
Well, the only good thing I can think of for today is that it's actually Friday! Woohoo! Still, I'm stuck indoors - again. We have had nothing but rain, rain, and more rain since early last week. I think today will actually be our 11th day of rain (expecting storms this afternoon). We've had over 3" of rain in a week when that's all we get in a month's time around here. My shoes are squelching, even when I walk in the house (well, not really, but you get the point.)
Want to know why I'm stuck inside again. Poor Nick. He's home from school today with a yucky cold. I had a feeling it was coming on, but I just kept thinking (hoping) that it would end up being his allergies. He's even running a bit of a fever this morning.
So I'll stay inside and catch up on laundry and whatever else I feel like doing. We were supposed to go over to my mom's for dinner, but that's off. Now I'll have to come up with something. Uggghhh!
Hope the rest of you are having a great day!

Life With Maria
Once again, I have been so bad about blogging. Don't know why. I've actually had the time, but just not the interest. Maybe because I never think I'm any good at this or better yet - I really have no idea what to say. LOL Most of my friends would disagree because half the time they can't get me to shut up.
But DD Maria can beat me at it any time. The girl can talk. I mean really about anything, anytime. She's good at holding a conversation with herself too. I heard her talking in her room the other day (I thought with her brother) until I realized he wasn't even home. Nope, she was in just a chatting away with herself. It was cute.
She came to me yesterday and had decided to finally get her ears pierced. Mind you, we've been talking about this on an off for a couple of years. But the child is afraid of pain, needles, you name it. And of course just the thought of this sends her into a nervous frenzy. She gets stomach aches when she gets nervous. Had one last night, so I had to tell her she won't be getting her ears pierced this weekend until she's REALLY ready.
I'm still taking her, I just don't want her to be worrying about it for the rest of the week. We also got a great note from one of her teachers. And of course there was a great challenge over at Lifetime Moments this weekend for NSD. So I put them together and came up with this LO to document her teacher's kind words.
This was from her Social Studies teacher. "So often us teachers have to focus most of our attention on those students who aren't doing what they are supposed to be doing in school. I just wanted to take this time and say that having Maria in my class not only makes my job easier, but fun and rewarding. It has and is a pleasure to have her in my class. Thank you," Mr. McShane.
Isn't she da bomb!!

Purging my Stamp Stash
Sorry, it's been a while since I've been on. No excuses really, just didn't feel like it. However, I have been cleaning out my scrap room and have 16 stamps sets that I'm ready to get rid of. Two of them have never been opened and used. What was I thinking??? If anyone is interested in purchasing any of these stamp sets just let me know. I'd prefer Paypal payments, but if you don't have an account we can work something out. All shipping to be paid by the buyer and I'll ship first class or priority - your choice.
