WooHoo, sorta back!

I have been overwhelmed to say the least!  I will try to make this a quick catch up post, and then try to get back into the swing of blogworld in a few days!  I have missed it and you all sooooooo much!

Well, I knew I had been away too long when Bentley asked if I was on a writers strike, ummmm no dear monkee just crazy busy!

I want to say (a very late) Happy Mother's Day and a (late) well wish for Memorial Day!  You can blame my Mother's Day for part of the reason that I have not answered all of my emails!  More on that in a second!

I have almost got the whole house cleaned out.  One bathroom to go and the basement!  I took everything out of every room then cleaned and sorted it all!  I even did this with my kitchen, which had me running a little scared.

This was the least scary photo, most of the items are now gone!  It was a good timing because the postman had a food drive in middle of this cleaning and he racked up!

All of the carpets are nice and clean now!

I have to give hubby most of the credit.  He did the carpets and he is staining the decks!  One down and one to go!

This is just some of the piles that went to GoodWill!

I really was a lucky lady on Mother's Day! 

 

Meet Audrey, we have a love hate thing going on right now!  I can answer my phone now, score one for me!  Most of my time is spent trying to get take her battery out, where I have jammed her up.  My fault not hers.  Now for the great part!  I can check my email with her.  But, I managed to delete almost all of my emails, I thought I was saving them.  Not to mention that I did not know how to page forward so I only got a few lines, before they went to cyber heaven.   So, if you are owed an email please forgive me!  If you asked me anything that needs answering, could you resend it????  I do know that one email was from Laura, to answer the one question that I remember, I am 5'6". 

We did accomplish other things as well!  Boo finished confirmation class, yeah!  My boys informed me that they wanted a tougher curriculum for the upcoming year, so a quick trip to a homeschool fair was in order!  We have a great curriculum on order for fall!  Yes, it has kick mama's butt  great SAT scores written all over it, haha!

Of course, I would not be me without saying, I have more doctor appointments this week, on both Wednesday and Friday.   I will be visiting more soon!  I just needed to get my house in order, nesting to the umpteenth degree, haha!  I love you all!

I READ this last night & was literally so relieved to see you posting again, I couldn't ANSWER because I was all emotional. LOL! I know - I am a total DORK! But you know I just LOVE you and I have been doing my best to give you some space to do what you needed to do and not bug you till you felt ready to blog & email again. But I think about you every single day, Lil' Leigh! And can't WAIT till we get to 'talk' again. P.S. Expect silly mail sometime next week - I'm going to the post office Saturday. LOVE YOU!

Leigh,

SOOOO glad to hear you will be back soon! I miss you girl and Bentley too! I want to come live at your house. All clean and organized, WOW, I AM VERY JEALOUS!! I need to do that too, but, not today! Maybe not tomorrow, but soon. Loved the cards and flowers, very pretty and well deserved. Can't wait to see what else you have been doin'. Hugs, Jan

Welcome back Leigh!! Hey--when you spring clean you really spring CLEAN!! I am impressed! That is such a lot of work. I'm ashamed to say that DEEP cleaning (with cupboards and closets)hasn't been done around here for a few years, and now the job is too big! lol

Audrey would scare me. Really! lol I'm sure you will catch on, remember when you first started on the computer?? What a fun little doodad--awesome Mother's day gift!

You're still in my prayers, those tests are going to turn out fine!

Smiles and Blessings!
Karen

I can't believe you are still managing to drop by and say hi, when you are so busy right now. Hope things are settling down a bit and you are managing to find some time to relax and enjoy! I do love a good spring clean. It does wonders for the soul!
Cheers!
