Tuesdays

I love my Tuesdays. I start my day getting lunches and kids ready, then I have to drive Samantha and Katrina over to the school so Samantha can catch the bus to her gifted class in Clinton. As I head back, I have time to think, pray or just enjoy the beauty of the morning.When we started this in the fall of 2004, I almost dreaded it, but now it has become an enjoyable part of my routine. It has been so cool all the animals that we've seen. Our list includes fox, deer, red tailed hawk, and wild turkeys. So far I have yet to catch any of this on film. I try to remember my camera but it seems the day we see something, I've forgotten it. A couple of weeks ago, there was a beautiful mist hanging over the "valley". As we crossed the Goshen, it came into sight. I will try and post that picture sometime. I haven't taken the time to figure that out. Anyway, as I was saying, I enjoy Tuesdays because they are my one day that I plan to be home doing laundry, cleaning, catching up on my banking, work outside or whatever I need to do. I did miss Heart to Heart for the first week or two but am glad that I made the decision not to got this session. I need this one day to be at home. I don't know how people work full time with kids. They must be more organized than me!
Today Bri cut my hair. I love getting my hair cut especially when it turns out beautiful as always. (I had to say that because she told me she reads my blog! Just kidding Bri! I enjoy our "times" together and I really do like how you've been cutting my hair!)
Kevin and I are dicussing reno plans. They are pretty major. I do not enjoy making big money decisions so this has been a bit stressful for me even though I am excited about the outcome. Looks like this summer it will begin to happen if all goes well. We're planning to add a room onto the back of the house to enlarge our eating area which in turn will enlarge the kitchen and livingroom also. Maybe even add a garage! That will be so sweet. Room for hockey bags, snowboots, and hopefully our van! Actually, both of us agree that if we have a garage it will not be full of stuff, it will be for our vehicle. But I think the hockey stuff might fit too. We've already had a plan drawn up, an estimate done and priced cupboards and kitchen stuff. A few more questions to have answered and we will make our final decision.
Anita and I went for a walk tonight. It was so nice out and I didn't even collapse when I got home! Thanks Anita for motivating me to do this. I enjoy it and will hopefully get in better shape as the spring goes on.
This is a good website for checking out movie reviews. www.pluggedinonline.com
I use it all the time, especially to check out kids movies. It's very detailed and helpful.
Well, that's my blog for tonight. Nothing deep. Just life.
