Yeah!

I finagled a bill or two and came up with gas money for tomorrow. We'll take the kids to my Mom's and trade them in for her for the day. They'll help Aunt Kelly and Uncle Anthony move into their new house and Chris, my Mom and I are going on a day trip to see her brother and his wife. She was beside herself with worry about him while he was in the hospital in Michigan and not being able to go to them when they've always come to us when someone is hospitalized just about killed all our souls. So anyway, we're going on a day trip to see how they're doing. My brother called this afternoon and said Mom can't wait for tomorrow to get here.

New Tags.......

for Autumn can be found at Grab It Graphics. Click on my button to the right to go there. I hope that works anyway. LOL.

Everything's going pretty good. Nothing to really write about. We're all healthy and happy. My niece Amanda is doing well in her job. My Uncle was diagnosed with dementia. I need to plan a weekend to take my Mom to see him. This weekend would be perfect if we had gas money but it was a payday of too many bills and not enough paycheck so hopefully we can go maybe the next payday. We'll see.

Junior National Beta Club

Nicky was invited to join the Junior National Beta Club through the middle school today. He had told me about it last week but just said Beta club so I thought it was just something to do with the school. It sounds very similar to the National Honor Society though from the literature I got in the mail today. If nothing else it'll help build his self esteem and leadership qualities and when he's a Senior if he's still a member he can apply for scholarships through them. I'm very proud of him!

It's a Boy!!

We've got a new nephew! Eric Jeffery was born at 2:57 p.m. today. He weighed in at 7 lbs 0.2 ozs and is 19 1/2 inches long with reddish blonde hair. I forgot to ask the eye color though. I can't wait to see him!
