time and a lack there of

i was supposed to be sewing my dress today, but i am still working on work. it is looking like i will be up friday sewing it at bevs beach house (mikes mom). she will have electricity. i still have to pack and get out the tents and camping things and pack the truck. i have done nothing yet as we have been so busy. so, off i go to sew 4 screens so i can go home tonight and pack. i still have to do laundry also. i really need a clone.

counting down

i just cut apart the dress i bought to alter into a pattern for my wedding dress. i will go cut the material now, i am feeling very guilty though because it is rachels birthday (my sister in law) and i totally forgot and we worked together all day. i am going to the theatre to get her some movie tickets so she can go on a date with douglas sometime. i am just terrible. it was jimees 18th birthday yesterday and i have been thinking about that. mikes birthday is saturday (the day we get married). one work day left (and dress sewing day). time just flies when you get old and have responscibility. i look at my kids how time is never ending with school and everything seems so long to them. it makes me giggle to look back and see now. school is going great so far for all of them. i am going to take care of being a bad sister in law now. and jovi, i have so many nice boy clothes for you i will send soon. i am putting together the things not worn out that jule has outgown or surpassed before ian outgrew. ian is a size slim, owen and jule are regulars so there are some things the other two have never worn. if zion can't use them then you can donate them to goodwill or whatever ya'll have back there. the box is still growing as the boys have been home only two days and i am going through their things for school.

school

is it fall already? no, we just have insane people making the schedules for school to start. it is the hottest time of year and off to school the boys went this morning.

money pit

school supplies for 3 kids (no clothes, pack backs or others) was 197$ for the cheapest things just off the lists. ouch.

tomorrow short people.

going at 6 to phoenix to pick up my short people. i am very happy. i miss them terribly. i will come to work when i get back, but am leaving now so i can go school shopping at wal-mart. i have to go get supplies since school starts monday. i need to get a few food items to since boys like to eat.

yes, it was better

today started off great, everyone came in ready to work and we got some things accomplished. i got lots done but still have much to accomplish to go on vacation next week which we totally cannot afford. 8 days till i am rebecca jensen. we are so busy, which is a blessing as most people are not. i will begin to raise my prices again as we still are not making enough to not work crazy hours. my kids come home sunday, (mario will go get them and i will make a boat cover) and school starts monday. i have to go buy supplies still and grocery shop as i will not feed them the crap i have been living on. they don't need to know convience food exists until they are 18 and figure it out for themselves. thank you for your good wishes i appreciate the support.
