So, for the past three days I’ve been battling a weather-related headache. We were in the 80s on Tuesday, and they’re talking snow on Saturday. Yeah, if you’re prone to weather-induced headaches, this is the time of year that will kill you!! Hell, I hate spring. See why my favorite season is FALL? Pollen counts are FALLING, and the weather changes still happen, but hell, easier to predict Winking smile

So, I’ve been on and offline for the most part.

Update on the house: probably not getting that one.

  1. No A/C in the house. With Kansas hitting triple digits regularly in the summer, that’s a requirement.
  2. There were at least THREE different wiring styles in the house. So, we’d have to redo that.
  3. We’d have to buy a fridge immediately, and probably a stove. Sad smile
  4. BIGGEST reason (for me): There was no wiring for the internet. Yeah, I, um, HAVE to have the internet. One thing? I do PayU2Blog and, yeah, that really requires the internet. Sad smile
  5. Another biggie: two bathrooms and not one tub. There were only showers. Yeah, I need a bathtub sometimes Winking smile

So, while I’m a little sad that the shopping hasn’t ended, I’m excited for the next step.

Okay, yesterday I didn’t scrap *at* all. I actually usually don’t on Sundays. That’s the one day off that my husband is guaranteed {he’s a mail carrier}. That means he usually takes over the tower, which is seriously FAST and reliable. I have the laptop, but I can’t exactly multi-task with it, ;) So, since I have the computer most of the time, I have no problem sharing the computer with him though. He works hard every day, :lol: But yesterday, ugh, I wouldn’t have wanted the computer anyway. I had the laptop on for about 15 minutes after we spent a few hours in town {with 100F and higher heat indexes}, and I was DONE looking at it, :lol: I was exhausted, in pain, and just felt like poopy. Happens way too often it seems :( I gotta start eating more regularly, and more healthily. I guess it’s a good thing that when the kids start school, I’ll be starting From Couch to 5K. First week is 15-20 minutes outside, :lol: I think I can handle that! Even got a few new work-out related clothes for it {a good jog bra, and some running shorts, C9 by Champion through Target}. Seriously comfy! I had a coupon for $3 off, so I got the bra for $13.99. I wasn’t going to get the shorts, but Josh got them off the rack for me and put them in the cart. I wasn’t going to argue! I needed more shorts anyway! Plus, they’re only $9.99. That’s cheaper than all my jean shorts, :lol:

I cannot believe that 2009 will be over in a little less than 14 hour from now. Wow!

Well, I hit 400 layouts for 2009. I’m amazed that I did it! I did 6 layouts yesterday, and here they are!


Kit: Rock Out Witcha Potty Out (Boys) by ModernJune Creations, exclusively at DSM
This was for a Challenge at Brownie Scraps. I really love how it turned out. I have it on my new phone (a Samsung Impression, if you care to know … I <3 it so much, :lol: )

Kit: Make It Funky by Mandy Made

Journaling:
We went to Holton so that Josh could change the oil in the Trailblazer. Since I had quite a bit of writing to do for NaNoWriMo, I packed the sidewalk chalk. They had fun coloring the sidewalk, and themselves.
