just me

Anyone one who knows me knows I love sports but especially football and Nascar. It breaks my heart that a great football player and father of a little one loses his life because of a senseless act of violence.

I am so into music lately. I love plugging my ipod into my docking station at work and just jamming out. It makes the whole day go so much faster and brings a smile to my face. Lately I am into all kinds of music from alicia keyes new song, eminem, matchbox 20 and fergie. I just love music. Its sad to think that I had my ipod for so long and hardly ever listened to it and now I can't live without it and aren't these new ipods just so cool and cute, cute, cute. I would love to have one of these but for now I will just dream about owning one. Hey a girl can dream, right??

It's the sound of piece and quiet..all of the kids are gone and honestly it's kind of sad. I know I should and will enjoy it while I can but it's just so quiet right now. Even the dogs are just laying around being good. My little sister and I did hit up the mall earlier to pick up a couple of Christmas presents but other than that just catching up on all the shows I have tivo'ed recently. There is probably lots of other things I should be doing like cleaning our bedroom, or scrapbooking but figured today I am going to do nothing and will play catch up tomorrow while hubby is gone for a few hours.
We had a wonderful thanksgiving and totally stuffed ourselves. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!

I am so thankful for so many things this year..
first and foremost...my husband and children I don't know where I would be without them. My husband grounds me, he is my rock. I can be having the worst day and yet he can still make me laugh til it hurts, he truly is my everything. My children although they may drive me totally crazy they are each their own person and have such different personalities but they are all so very special. Their is never a dull moment with 4 children.
I am also thankful for our families. We are fortunate enough that all of our parents live within 20 minutes of us and it so nice to know they are right here when we need them.
My job.. after being home doing daycare for 8 years I never thought I would land a job let alone a job I would truly love.
My furbabies, life is very crazy with 4 dogs but hey what's 4 dogs when you already have 4 kids.. we must really love the chaos.
My friends..I have wonderfully supportive their when I need them friends.
These are just a few of the things I am most thankful for this year.

I will leave you with another picture of our newest baby..Happy Thanksgiving..

my work week that is and thank goodness. I even took an hour and half of vacation and got out at 3:00 and it felt so good. Yeah I know I will tons of things to catch up next week but that's okay it could wait. The really important got things got done so that's whats important..right??
Tomorrow is turkey day and I cannot wait. I have alot of things to be thankful for this year and I plan on enjoying every minute of the next 4 days, and then going back to work totally refreshed and ready to conquer everything monday. Later I will do my what I am thankful for post...

see ya

CLW

work was beyond crazy today and I could/should probably still be their but had to get out their before my head exploded. I so wanted to get get out work early Wednesday but honestly don't really see that happening and might not even get out of their on time..oh why this week. Think hubby will let me hire a housekeeper to finish cleaning the house for Thanksgiving...yeah I doubt it to, but it was a nice thought.

I thought I would show you what Kinsey does with her brother when I am not home..

We got another dog..calgon take me away...Her name is Izzy (pedigree name Williams Queen Izabella the first) and she is almost 4 months old..

to get it all together and post here more often. I really am trying. Not much exciting going on here lately anways.. been doing lots of cuddling with this baby. PJ's cousin (who is actually more like his brother) and his wife had a baby Sept. 15 and I love this little guy to pieces. I know it will be quite a while before I have nieces or nephews of my own so this is as good as it gets for me. Isn't he just the cutest little thing ever? And look at all of that hair.

We are also getting ready for Thanksgiving. We got a 22 lb turkey yesterday and hubby will cook him Thursday morning. PJ's parents, my mom and step-dad will be here and it will just be a great day with lots of eating, visiting and more eating.

Work has been going great. I am finally in my new position. Another girl and myself do all the medical billing for our company. It's a fun position but very technical. We work with so many different states and they all are very particular about how they want their bills coded, but it's just what I need, I love a good challenge. The kids are also doing wonderful, as wonderful as it can be with 4 kids and one of them is a teenager...:)

We'll stay tuned for another post today with just how crazy I really am.......................
