My Daybook #22

Today is...
August 19th, 2010. "J" has Orientation today for her new school!

Outside My Window...
75 and partly sunny. Almost no humidity. Woo to the Hoo!

I am Thinking...

about how happy I am that our move is almost over. We have one more trip to Bee's old house, then one trip to my apartment. Then we are D-O-N-E! I am 3/4 of the way unpacked now too! I sure can't wait to relax, and enjoy our new home!

I am thankful for...

Grandma Bee. She has been letting the kids stay at her house. She says it's to spend time with them before school starts. I say it's to get them out of my hair while I unpack. :) Plus, she knew we were moving and bought all three their school supplies. God Bless her...

What I have learned this week...
I can get a lot done if I stay focused on one task at a time.

I am wearing...
Jeans, Sandals, white tank top, and one of Bee's dress shirts (it's black and pink)

I am creating...
my list of things to do to RELAX once I am alll done!

I am going...
To be moved in COMPLETELY by Sunday, and I am also going to Bee's Brother's show on Friday and the Browns game on Saturday!

I am reading...
No Time for that!


I am hoping...
to be all unpacked by Monday night!

I am hearing...
Music from my NEW IPOD TOUCH! It's super cool! Even though I had to go to hell and back to get the darn thing. (Stupid FedEx)

Around the House...
WE ARE IN THE NEW HOUSE. I am in love. I walk in my door smiling every day. Then, I remember I Have to unpack. Haha! Nah, it's not that bad. I like finding a place for everything. I really want EVERYTHING there right now, however, it's been kinda nice having it come in stages. Friday night, we had the first load. I stayed up late and unpacked most of it. Saturday, we went and got a few more things and Saturday night I unpacked the rest, or at least put it in the room in belonged in. Sunday, we brought a whole second load, including all of Bee's clothes (Good Lord, he has a lot.) and I should be almost done with that when the last little load comes in. And that load will be garage/shed stuff, and MY stuff, which, besides my furniture, is all little things like pictures, DVD's, books, that type of thing. My Goal is to be allll done by the time BFF Rose comes to spend a day with me next Saturday. I can DO It!

One of my Favorite things this week...
Sleeping over Friday night in the new house! Kiddos were sooo full of excitement! We were so full of excitement!



A Picture Thought...
Sunday night, we had a Thunderstorm. "Little Man" is scared of them anyway, but in a new house that he doesn't feel 100% comfortable with, was harsh on the little guy. Add to that, he was not exactly happy with the fact that "C" and "J" get to sleep upstairs and he has to sleep downstairs by himself ("I have NEVER gotten to sleep upstairs, where kids sleep, in my whole entire life!!!" ) Bee and I gave him a list 10 reasons long why downstairs was better. Anyway, when the storm hit, he was scared. We told him to turn his tv on and he wouldn't hear the thunder. I told him that I was going to be up and in the living room unpacking 15 feet away from him and I wouldn't let anything hurt him. He seemed satisfied and went to bed. I checked on him 5 minutes later and he was passed out. In the morning, I found this....looks like someone got scared....and it wasn't little man ;)

I Love how he gave up his blanket for her...and has arm out like "It's ok..I'm here.."
