Monday Musings

Another week is here and these are the things currently on my mind.

1) Clark has his 2 AP exams this week and I am a bit nervous for him. I hope that he does well.

2) I have been knitting about an hour every night before bed so I am making good progress on the baby blanket for my friends.

3) Once this blanket is done I will need to cast on one for my new great-niece who was born on the 1st.

Here are the pictures for the week.

Monday Musings

The last Monday of April is upon us and these are the things currently on my mind.

1) Preston started flag football on Saturday and I think it is going to be a long season. His team reminds me of The Bad News Bears.

2) I met with Clark's counselor and he is taking quite a hard schedule next year. I guess he is not interested in the senior slide.

3) There are 6-1/2 weeks left of school and I think the boys and I are both ready for the year to be over.

Here are the pictures for the week.

It was a cold start to flag football season.

Monday Musings

As this week comes to an end these are the things currently on my mind.

1) Mother nature is off her meds again. After a string of warm days it was in the 20s again this morning. Preston was not happy that he had to wear his heavy coat again.

2) For some reason the boys are off school tomorrow for a professional development day. Not sure why they picked a random Tuesday but it is what it is.

3) Preston was writing a story about an alien and said that he wanted to watch a movie about an alien. I told him that we should watch ET since I loved it when I was a kid. He then proceeds to ask me if it is in color since it is so old! I'm like dude how old do you think I am? He's lucky he's so cute.

Here are the pictures for the week.

Preston went to the dentist last week and asked me to take a picture of his pearly whites.

Three on Thursday

As this week comes to an end these are the things I am currently thankful for.

1) That my winter funk is slowly going away.

2) That I am making good progress on the baby blanket for my friends.

3) That Preston received a thumbs up from the dentist at his appointment today.

Another week begins and these are the things I am currently pondering.

1) After a loooooooong 6 months I think that we have finally resolved hubby's car issue (knock on wood). He bought a "new" car today and the dealer even gave us a really great trade in on the POS even though it is not running.

2) Of course we now have 2 car payments which is not ideal but it is what it is.

3) The weather is warm, we have more daylight and I feel my motivation coming back slowly but surely. 

Here are the pictures for the week.

Preston and I went bowling one afternoon during spring break. The teenager did not want to join in.
