Does anyone know anything about Google Profit?  It is supposed to be a homebased work.  It doesnt give any details other than you can earn money, then requests your info.  The only thing that I didnt like was then it asks for your credit card number.  I'm not comfortable doing that so I couldnt get anymore info.  If you know anything about it, like is it legitte.   If it is that would be very cool cuz I could sure use to make money from home filling out forms.  I just dont want it to be like this mail in offer I once did, it turned out to be bogus and I sent them money.  

What have I missed?  Everything.  I missed Thanksgiving dinner.  I've missed the last 4days.  Until today it has been the first day since wednesday that I wasnt completely incapcitated to the fullest extent.  It isnt fair that I was sick just last month with that horrible upper respiratory infection that wouldnt quite.  Heck that was a walk in the park.  I could at least still do everything.  Nope wednesday I slightly mentioned a sore throat when I popped on here for a quick sec.    After that it all hit my like a ton of bricks.  I was SICK!  Complete with nausea and vomitting.  And sore throat.  But also the inability to get warm with sweats, a fuzzy robe, and 3 freaking blankets.  My whole body was in pain where, well it was just bad.  I first thought I had that 24hr stomack flu.  That is until the whole ordeal lasted 3 1/2 days.  Which on the second day was THANKSGIVING!!  My favorite meal.  But it gets better I wake up on the 3rd day and I felt like I was swallowing glass.  Which turned out to be strep throat.  Which is why I was either sleeping or throwing up the whole time.  YIPEE!!  So yesterday evening I started feeling able to hold food down and actually hold a conversation with someone. My Thanksgiving or our Thanksgiving rather, was very unconventional and Don was so sweet.  He decided he didnt want to leave me home alone on Thanksgiving.  Even though I was about as good as a wet rag.  He stayed home with the kids he made them mac and cheese and corn dogs which they ate it all.  He made me some chicken broth cuz that was about all I could take.  The house is a tornado and the curtains havent been open in 5days now but I can actually sit upright and walk around today.  To think all that preparing for eating my favorite Thanksgiving meal complete with my special roll sandwiches.  In which I cram just about everything into it besides the pie.  I walked more and was trying to watch what I ate.  Ha I didnt get to eat any!  And I lost weight the easy way.    On the brighter side though I have been trying to look at it like this.  God knew that Don and I didnt want to spend Thanksgiving with anyone other than ourselves.  We were feeling pressure from both sides and took their invites to avoid hurt feelings.  We completely got out of it, we were together and we actually just did nothing.  Now that may sound stupid but we are so busy that often times we only get one day out of the week to be together and do nothing.  With no one around.  This way I felt like death but I got 5 days with my family and didnt do a thing.   So that is how things have been here and tomorrow is monday and I will be fine to take them to their schools and get back to cleaning my tornado.

 Ok so I am bored and desperately avoiding reading my anatomy book again.  I seriously doubt I will retain anymore at this point.  I thought I would make up my own meme.  In light of some of my current stresses I really have alot to be greatful for.  Being as Thanksgiving is approaching rather fast, I figured to beat the rush and make my Thankful list.  That way any of my lj friends can maybe join in and find some positive in their lives and pass it on.  

1) Thankful to have 2 beautiful, healthy smart children.
2) Thankful that my dreadful cold is gone!
4) Thankful that I have some good friends that I can count on.
5) Thankful God has given me the gift of servicing others.
6)  Thankful to have such a wonderful husband that works harder than anyone person should have too.

 Good things today!!!  First did I ever mention that I love, love, Love my small group couples!!!!!  They are just fantabulous!!!  Also I got a C on my first lab exam, which I was pleased with because I knew I really blew that one question.  If I would have not blanked that one out I would have aced it.  So to me that is great.  I finally heard from the appraisal company for our home refinance and they will be here friday morning.  I have been cleaning all day.  I know that it wont really matter but it does to me!  I have even been touching up paint from the dogs nails and kids banging on things with their toys.  My finance lady told me that my credit report is going to look awesome when she gets done submitting all my Paid things.  They have been paid since before we bought the house but for some reason they were still listed, we supplied the receipts and all looks good!  So for more good news I had contacted my alderman the other day and he responded to my email right away.  Then he came to my house but we didnt hear the door because it was the kids bedtime so I was tucking them in and Don was in the shower.  He left his card and then called like an hour later!  Don spoke with him and he said he would look into it further.  Well that was Monday and today a police chief called me to ask some more questions and they will be sending an officer sometime and asking more questions and investigating.  He also informed me that there is a nusance ticket and that it requires 3 calls in 30days to the police.  Boy if I wouldve known that I wouldve called along time ago when I was minding my own business.  Also the chief was nice enough to inform me that the calls that were placed were due to violence, a suicide call and a search warrant.  Yeh buddy I called the cops you big insano!!  He had 3 last year and 4 so far this year.  Plus the one I made in regards to the incident.  That one technically was to my house but it was about them so in essence they are seeing a pattern.  It sure will be nice to get some peace around here although they have been extremely quiet lately.  

All in all I am getting good news from all around!!  Makes for a great day!  Thank God!!

Today has been a pretty good morning so far.  Matthew yet again slept all night in underwear without any accidents.  That is a big plus, no washing bedding first thing wahoo!  Tabitha is currently still asleep and it is 8:55am.  She must be tired and I am so not complaining.  Right now I am having coffee and folding the many loads of laundry I got washend yesterday but did not fold them.  I hate when I do that.  But I was far from lazy yesterday.  I was cleaning up the yard.  Now that we got the new fence up we are making some landscape changes.  Which is what I was doing.  Digging up stuff to put different stuff lol.  After that we had went to watch Don practice soft ball.  Which is a whole other topic.

Don's boss asked him if he would mind joining a softball team for his brother whom owns a local chicken restaurant here.  Don said sure let me know when and such.  Well some weeks have passed and On monday his boss informs him that this is the weekend of the TOURNAMENT.  Don is like what a tournament I thought it was a league that we would be on.  NOPE!  It is some annual tournament that they have had absolutely no practice for, except last night.  Don has not played softball since about 5-6 years now.  Last night when the practiced they were all rusty cuz they all have not played for a really long time.  Best of luck to them right.  Any how this last minute softball stuff kinda irritates me for a few reasons: 1) He has to buy new cleats and a glove due to the old glove he has doesnt fit him cuz it was from when he was a kid.  and he doesnt have any cleats, so we have to buy this stuff for a weekend. 2) He will have to play the entire weekend.  Possibly not sunday but definitly friday and saturday.  Now this sucks up the whole weekend that we planned on getting the yard done.  He doesnt really have time after work to do it so now the weekend is shot too. 3)  This also interferes with us having dinner plans with some friends of ours we havent seen a quite awhile.  I made these plans before we left for the Dells cuz there was no talk of softball.  So now it will be me the 2 kids our friends Nate and Liz and Nate's daughter.  Typically the guys have their guy talk and us girls do our thing.  oh well what can ya do right.  Make the best of it.  Maybe he will have an early slot and can hurry over when he is done.  We shall see.  I guess there was a lesson to be learned in all of this "ASK FOR DETAILS FIRST"!!!

The rest of the day today I will finish the laundry and do some more yard work.  Later today we will probably go watch Don practice again but maybe not.  I havent decided.  But mostly the yard we need it all together by the 28th because we will be entertaining guests and I want my yard looking good.  Well on that note I had better go and get doing that.
Have a great day!

Now I am ticked off.  I just posted the pics and I made sure that it was all under cut and it didnt freakin work.  Maybe I am trying to post to many pics and it wont let ya.  I dont know.  I give up and I am sorry if it at any time took up a zillion pages of your friends page.  I hate the internet.

So freakin Lj sucks booty.  I just posted a long long post of pics and such from my vacation and it took me forever.  But I put it all under cut.  I even double checked to make sure it was under cut.  So I post it and it wasnt under cut.  I dont have time to post it now so it will have to wait.  I suppose I couldve left it but then my lj friends would be all wth.  uggggg

Ok I have no idea what happened with that last post.   Sorry it turned out weird.

You know how I thought school was all figured out.  Boy was I wrong.  Somewhere along the lines of communication with the school I screwed up.  This whole time I was thinking that superspring classes hadnt been listed and they were.  I call the school bookstore yesterday to see if the bookcards were in and mine hadnt been posted to my account yet.  So I go to the school and speak with the lady and she explains that the classes that were being offered are in fact in the book.  The catch is not all classes are being offered.  Evidentally when I emailed my counselor months ago about this she must not have known this cuz she said check back in march.  So I had to make a last minute appointment with some random counselor, who thankfully found me some fill in class, seeing as all the classes I need wont be offered in super spring.  Now I just need to call the woman back today to make sure my bookcard goes through and I can attend school.  Cuz I seen those book prices for the one class and it like 400bucks and you cant get used for this one.  ahhhh.  Now with adding this second class things will be sort of nuts.  well at least Tuesdays will.  Tabitha has preschool on MW and it depends on the week but it is either Tor Th.  T IF she has preschool I will take her there.  Upon picking her up we will come home for a minute and eat lunch, then it will be off to grammas house so I can go to class at the Kenosha campus from 1:30-4:25 it takes about 25 min to get back to grammas, where I will pick the kids up and have to shoot right home and drop them off to dad.  Then I have class at the Racine campus at 6pm till8:55pm.  That is gonna be one heck of a semester.  Thursday will be fine just the one class in the afternoon.  It will just be a crazy tuesday.  Oh well the price I will pay.  Well I better go got tons to do.

Well Happy New Years everybody.  Nothing too exciting going on.  Don had off all weekend and yesterday, so we have just been maxing and relaxing around the house.  The kids have been playing and we have been just being together.  We didnt do much on New Years eve except watch a stupid not funny at all movie.  The movie Groomsmen with Brittany Murphy.  It was not funny, a total let down from how the cover makes it sound.  We did rent Ant Bully for the kids and it is pretty cute.  All in all things are good.

Today is one of those days where things just are blah. For one thing I said I have been having computer problems lately and I have. The thing is the whole time At&t and I were trying to figure out the problem they just said it must be your modem we will send u a new one, in a few days you should get it. Well I just decided yesterday to go and try to see if it would work. And it did. No problems. Hmm this got me thinking this morning to try it again. And now it works. They assured me there were no outages in my area anymore that it had to be the modem. So why is it working? And why are they sending me a new modem. Now it is too late to cancel the new one. So that means unless it goes screwy again it was all a waste of time. I mean I'm glad to have it working but this is the second time in less than 6 months there was a problem. I may need to switch to roadrunner.

Also I have been going through the school schedule for January and this hasnt been easy. I still dont know what time I will be going. None of the times match up with Tabi's school except one. But the catch is I need one more class to get full tuition from financial aid. But the other classes I have to choose from want me to be there at the same time as the other class is in session. Uggh. I am waiting for my counselor to call me back to find out what the possiblity of just the one class would be. I know I did it before but got less money and it was a while ago, so things could've changed now. Plus my Mil who is going to watch the kids is sick now with really bad anemia and she has to go see a specialist in Dec. She feels to weak to watch the kids now and I'm worried it will be continuing when I go to school. I have to register on the 14th. I dont know what is going to happen. God I really hope and pray that things will fall into place. Maybe I am not supposed to go back yet and these are all signs. I need an answer soon.

But on a good note Don and my anniversary went really well. He got me some awesome red roses. Plus he suprised me with this gigantic bottle of homemade wine. No he didnt make it. He met some guy while working on his house, who has a winery in his basement(rich folks). When he did the work the guy gave him this wine for a tip. Don told him thanks that my wife will love it. And I did, never had anything so good. I drank it up and then there was none. Well the funny thing is Don did some work for this other guy, who was his bosses old landlord, come to find out is an employee of the wine guy. So Don tells me he asked the guy to see about getting some wine from the wine guy. The guy never got back to him so we thought thats the end of that. Well on saturday Don mentions this to his boss who tracked the guy(s) down and showed up to Don's jobsite with a bottle of the nummy wine. Yeah score. So cant wait to open it. But anyway we had a really nice dinner out and came home early cuz we were tired. But it was nice. And relaxing.

Well thats about it maybe I'll be online tomorrow not sure yet. Depends on the computer. Please work cuz I miss lj otherwise. Have a good day everyone.

things have been quite busy around here lately. tabitha started school on monday. so having to get up and ready and out of the house at 9am is work. we are up early just not ready to go anywhere. also midst getting tabitha to school we had the funeral on monday and then i had doctor appointments for my mil. and now tabitha doesnt have preschool today but my mil has a doctor appointment that typically takes a while. and tabitha has a dentist appointment this afternoon. so i will be doing a lot of driving around.

tabitha really enjoyed going to school. since don had to take off work early on monday he got to come and pick tabitha up with me. she was so cute. we were all dressed up cuz as soon as we picked her up we had to drop both tabitha and matthew off at home so my mom could watch them. but anyway we were all dressed up and tabitha says oooo you look so fancy. it was so cute. so we are all dressed up standing next to her for her pictures.

the funeral went well. i wasnt used to funerals being so small. both my grandparents had huge funerals. his gramma i dont even think there were 15 cars in the procession. some of their family just decided not to come. that was just strange to me. don's dad didnt show at all. which that is just bazarre to me. how can you be so self involved not to even go to your own mothers funeral. but whatever. i just keep telling myself everyone is different.

oh yeah some other good news. we bought the rest of our windows for downstairs. yeah. some good windows. they will be in around the 25th of this month. yippee. they dont take long to install either so they will be in by the end of the month like planned. thank you God.
well gotta go stuff to do. have a great day.

i did it. i wasnt sure if i linked it correctly but i did. yeah me. so those are my new kitchen curtains. that i hung up yesterday. well sort of. it took me like a half hour to do one window. im retarded. then don came home and i was having great difficulty with the second window. i was getting very angry and ready to quit. yes i get defeated easily when it comes to that. he came in and i was like i cant do it. i stripped a screw and all. he finished the second window in like 5 min. apparently he had the drill set to fast and that was part of the technical difficulty. but i'm mostly to blame. my mom said(she is very handy) "you know you could learn all this stuff with a little practice?" "it's good for a woman to know this stuff." i was like" yeah i know but i'd much rather not, i am more the damsel in distress." she says "yeah i know." i mean seriously that is why i married a man. hello. not that i'm totally inept or anything. i just prefer to not learn everything. there are some things that i feel men can just do. great for the women who know and do i'm just not the one.
tabitha is so cute she loves barbies. i mean loves them. she was up there almost all day setting up what she call Barbie Town. it was so cute. she has this barbie fridge that has a million and one different fridge items. she put them all in the fridge just right. and she had all the pots and pans set up on her barbie stove just right. i guess i think it is awesome cuz she is 3 1/2 years old. i took a picture so when i get it developed i will post how cute it looked. as a matter of fact she is up there right now playing Barbie Town.

these i think are my new curtains. not sure if i linked it right.

this weekend lets see. i went shopping. i got matthew his halloween costume. i didnt end up getting the pirate costume i wanted from shopko. they were already gone. so i got one from walmart but i dont think it is as cute. but it is cute. i got a new cordless phone w/answering machine. my other one was crappy. the kids wrecked it by dropping it a million times for me. what else, oh yeah i got some new kitchen curtains yeah. they are the ones i've been wanting for a while. and they were on sale. so i had to. i'm going to attempt to hang them myself. look out cuz i suck with a drill. i got a great deal at shopko for era laundry detergent 2/6 bucks. i love sales like that. oh and i think i'll be buying tabitha the little mermaid movie there is this sale at target where if you buy the ariel/eric married couple and the movie you get the princess wedding dress free. and the dress is 25 bucks on it own. plus she would love another dress up outfit and she loves the movie. i rented it for her. so i'll be stashing it away for christmas. did i say that. yes christmas will be here before we know it. ok i'll shut up about that now.

i have to try to go grocery shopping at walmart with the kids. not that i cant handle it by myself, its just so busy most of the time that i cant get one of those handy carts with the trailer on it. but we will see. you can save alot of money on groceries there.

so thanks again crystal for posting those pictures. its nice to remember back then.
well i guess i outta go. oh wait before i do don was so sweet yesterday. he had to work for a few hours. but instead of rushing off at the butt crack of dawn he got up with matthew. and he took him to the store with him. he bought me my favorite kringle. all before i even knew. tabitha and i slept in till 8 yeah. that is good. then when i got up he already had the paper and coffee ready. he went off to work and the kids and i went to church. when we got home don had already mowed the lawn and was ready to go get some lunch. i just thought that was sweet. ok bye.

it is friday. yeah. i love fridays. cuz that means we actually get to spend time with don. yesterday he worked so late that the kids were in bed when he came home. awww. although matthew heard him talking and came out and kissed him night night. ok so did tabitha. so whatever. things are getting cold around here. not freezing yet. but chilly. where u dont want to crawl out of the covers. i made warm oatmeal. that always gets u warm. they loved it. i almost scared to shower though. it will definitly be cold when u get out. brrrr. my poor mom will probably be a popsicle when she gets up. ok so im exaggerating. but she doesnt like the cold at all. she wants me to turn the heat on but i just looked at her like she lost her mind. its only september. we got a long way to go for the cold. although i dont think ill be holding off as long as i did last year. i dont think i kicked on the heater till the end of october. this big ole house is way chillier. but the good news is we are going to be able to get our windows after all. thank god. we wont have to plastic everything. this weekend we will be taking out all the airconditioners. well that about it hope everyone has a good day.
