Ten Thoughts...5/26/09

1. 22 years ago today, I gave birth to my oldest son.
2. No big party today, just me baking his fave yellow cake with peanut butter icing.
   
3. Took advantage of the break in severe thunderstorms this afternoon and cleaned off my back porch. (Daybed from FreeCycle last year has now been taken apart and is going to my friend Liz for her son Jr.)
4. Cleaned kitchen, den & bathrooms...ewww...my family sure can make a mess in just one week!!
5. Kat went to Kelli's homeschool graduation last Thursday and met a woman named Lisa and her two teenage sons. (19 & 17) Our family has plans to meet their family tomorrow at the park for a picnic and to get to know them better...as both of the sons has an interest in our daughter.
6. Kat is so nervous and stressed about tomorrow, she had a cold sore pop out this morning on the side of her mouth. First one EVER in her life...lol Poor thing!!
7. Lisa mentioned on phone last night both of her boys are nervous my hubby will beat/mangle/kill them...lol
8. Hubby is HAPPY that both boys are afraid he will beat/mangle/kill them.
9. We may not have money to spare...but we've gone another week with groceries in pantry and fridge, a roof over our head, and bills getting paid. I feel truly blessed beyond measure.
10. Jobs are so scarce here right now...I'm still continuing to pray that God opens the right door or window for hubby to find one. In the meantime, I have to give HIM the honor, glory and praise we are keeping our heads above water as hubby does odd side jobs, volunteer work and pounding the pavement.
