Pumpkins





Just a quick picture post. On Wednesday we went with my mom and got pumpkins. Hayley was super excited and had a blast . Then we took them outside and took some more pictures. I love the picture of the 3 of us together. It is one of my favorites. It is also the first "family" picture we have. I can't wait to do more. Soon hopefully. It's almost time to do Christmas cards. LOL I would love to go up to my dad's and do them in his living room by his fireplace but I am not sure that is going to happen. We have a few options so only time will tell.....
Anyways, I do have other stuff I wanted to blog about but now is not the time. It's 5 am and I am tired!!!

Still alive...

LOL. I know its been a week and I feel terrible! But lately things have been falling apart on us. Last Thursday my engine in my car started knock, which we all know is never a good thing. So we took it in and they confirmed that it is blown...This sucks big time!!! We have no car and no means to obtain a new (used) one. There was one avenue but that did not pan out. Needless to say at this moment I feel very very betrayed...and hurt....But I am not going to get into that one!
Anyways, I am sure there is more I could say but I am exhausted, something else that has been lingering since we moved, and need to get to bed since I have to go to my mom's tomorrow to try and finish getting things moved. I promise to try and update again soon....

Not Me! Monday



Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

Well it's been a few week since I last did this so maybe just maybe I might have plenty to say. =)

For starters, LAST Monday I most certainly did NOT yell "woohoo!" in the parking lot of the court house after finalizing my divorce, because you know I have better umm manners? than that!!!

Also, at the moment I am NOT sitting on my couch typing this blog post instead of unpacking some of the 20 or so boxes that are sitting in the corner of my living room. I have NOT been slowly unpacking, at a rate of about 2 boxes a night, because I honestly HATE unpacking. Almost as much as I hated PACKING all this crap! The only rooms that are completely unpacked is my kitchen and bathroom.

Oh, and I did NOT allow Hayley to wear the same shorts for 3 days because I had no clue where any of her other clothes were at. This included her NOT wearing the same shorts to school no less. Opps..Hopefully her other clothes will NOT surface sometime soon!

If I can think of anything else I will try to add to this later.

Long over due...

It's been so long since I last blogged but I think that's because I have been soooo busy. I have spent almost a week now packing, and starting Monday moving. Its been just crazy, things are crazy. But it's worth it. I am getting away from where I am now and only certain people know where I am moving to so that is good too. And on the plus side I get to spend every nite in the arms of the one I love. No more driving home at 4 am. Woohoo!
Hopefully tomorrow we can finish. The last time I talked to Scott he was going to finish his packing so that tomorrow I can bring the trailer over and take everything to the new house. And speaking of house, I should post a picture or two but I will wait til we are more settled. I absolutely love it! And it fell right into our lap at a very good price. We definitely couldn't pass it up.
So yes, it will probably be a while before I blog again. Even though our internet and cable will be turned on Friday morning I have a lot of unpacking to do!!!
Oh and last Sat. we celebrated Hayley's 7th birthday. I can not believe my baby is 7!!!! I will have to do a picture post from that after I get settled at the new house.
So until later,
Sara

Wow....

Its been over a week (AGAIN) since I last blogged. But I do have a reason LOL. Friday afternoon Scott, Hayley and I loaded up and drove up to my dad's house for the weekend. Our intentions were to sleep in the tent out towards the fire pit. We encountered a few problems....
  • My tent bag was full of water when I pulled it out to pack it
  • This resulted in having to go buy a NEW tent (with money that I should not have spent)
  • Hayley ended up sleeping in the house ALL weekend, because in her words "Scott snores!"
  • All weekend Scott and I were afraid our NEW tent was going to collapse on us. This resulted in my returning our brand new tent. I do not wish to own a tent that does not stay up correctly.
So yeah, it didn't really go the way we planned, but we had a blast. We had lots of fun, swimming, BUGS, ice cream, and hot dogs over the fire. My camera is still broken so I did not get many pictures.
On Sunday, my mom and my brother brought my 2 year old nephew up to see my dad...and us. Gosh he is getting soooo big! It seems like just yesterday that he was born! We were gone when they got there so when we got back I was in a rush to get in the house and when I walked in Ellis was like "AUNT SARA!" in his adorable 2 year old voice. It melted my heart.
In other news, Hayley starts 2nd grade today. She is sooo excited (and so is mommy!). The only problem at the moment is I can only find 1 tennis shoe and that's not good. So I hunted up her good sandals, that need to be washed, and I guess she can wear those. Also, next Sunday my baby turns 7. I can NOT believe it. We are having her party on Saturday. This year she wanted Hannah Montana. And I have been searching the net for a picture of the cake I ordered but I can not find one. Bummer, I will try and get some pictures (of course I need a camera to do that!) But even if I don't have a camera someone will and then I will get pics and if all else fails I have my cell phone which takes decent pictures.
Anyways, I need to wrap this up because I have an appointment at Hayley's school at 1 and I have a ton of errands to run before that. Something that could be very good for us has possibly come up and I need to look into it.
I will update again soon (hopefully!)

Not much to blog about....

I guess I am a boring person. LOL It is quite possible. So I am sitting here racking my brain for things to blog about...A few things have come to mind.

For starters, Hayley is grounded until Friday. Yes, I said my 6 year old is grounded for 5 days. Why you may ask? For taking all the dish soap, hand soap and bubble bath outside and using it to "wash" cars yesterday. It was a disaster! Neither I nor my mom realized that she had taken these things outside. It took me over 1/2 an hour to get all the soap off the cars. *sigh* Kids.

Last night Scott and I watched the first Left Behind Movie. I have already read most of the books but the movie was absolutely amazing!!! I can not wait to watch the 2nd one. Hopefully tonite.
Other than that, I really don't have much to talk about..
OH! Hayley's 7th Birthday is in 13 days!!!! =( My baby is growing sooo fast! And in 8 wonderful days she will start 2nd grade! I am super excited about this as she is definitely ready to return to school!
Maybe I will blog again soon!
Sara

Update: Scott and I did in fact watch the 2nd and 3rd Left Behind Movies. I am annoyed at how they ended them. It really made me mad. And the movies got me thinking a little bit. But I will save that for another post later when I am more awake.

A little bit of everything....

Okay, so this isn't going to be a very long post, I don't think. But you never know...it just might turn out that way. LOL....Really there isn't a whole lot I can post about.
I had an appointment on Monday and Hayley had one on Tuesday. Both were successful and I am glad for that. My migraines are still under control, with only minor headaches when I get really stressed. umm, last Thursday I was in the emergency room because I was having terrible back spasms and when they would hit I couldn't breath very well. They have no clue what brought them on and now a full week later I am still having some pain, but not as much. They did do an EKG, a chest x-ray, and lab work. Also they gave me three different shots of pain meds/muscle reliever...and none of them really did anything besides make me so sick to my stomach. Which in its self is funny because one the shots also contained an antinausea medication. LOL
Scott and I are doing well. I love him so much! For a while now every time I would see him/talk to him one song would come to mind. So finally last weekend I played it for him...

I know its kind of silly but I have sort of adopted it as one of our songs. I also made it into a ring tone so that when Scott calls my cell it plays. OH! And this past weekend Scott sang that to me when we woke up one day. Can you say romantic?? LOL Scott is my rock, my everything...I thank my lucky stars EVERYDAY that I met him!
Moving on....My divorce will be final in 18 days! I am so excited!!!! I was going to go after the hearing and get my tattoo fixed but I am not sure if I am going to have the money. =( That makes me sad...See why I say that????? I am hopefully going to have them cover it up with Hayley's name but honestly I am not sure how that is gonna work! I definitely learned my lesson..No names unless it is a child or a family member that passed away.
And speaking of tattoos..That thing did hurt a little..I was freaked out when I had it done but its addicting and I already have a collection going of future tattoos...That is my next one, after the cover-up. I just have to decide where I want it. I am thinking my boob. Maybe..I am not sure yet!! I also want the triquetra from Charmed. I don't know why I just do. Also I would like the pink breast cancer ribbon..In memory of my grandma. So yes, I am addicted to tattoos!!!!


Anyways, its quarter after 5 and I want to play one more game of pool and then I am off to bed. I shall do Thursday's Playlist a little later!!!
