It's been a nice calm boring day so far, and with any luck that won't change lol Greg is passed out on the couch totally exhausted, poor thing he had to work last night and had overtime every day this week, he's so tired he's not even snoring. The kiddies have been relatively quiet today too, Angela has been the loud one, which is definitely odd, 'Taye is tuckered too, I couldn't get her to go to her own bed til around mid-night for some reason, so she's been in nap mode today. Bradley is totally into cartoons, they all watch boomerang and today it's been like a pac-man marathon or something and he's finally decided it's a nice change of pace from the usual stuff thats on.
I've been on a house/property search today and it's pathetic how few houses there are available in the towns we want to move to, and the ones that are available are too small *sigh* I'm beginning to wonder if we will ever move..shoot even the land is slim, there are like 3 pieces (where I want), 1 is across from a bunch of goats, 1 looks like Grizzly Adams will hop out, I'm country but not that country, and the last is over $100,000, and call me crazy but I'm not ready to fork out that much just for a piece of land that looks like a forest.
Oh, Greg did wake me up to tell me that we are gonna put off Atlanta for a few more weeks grrr! He has decided to completely remodel the bathroom, now you watch him do it Memorial weekend, and if he does he is putting his health in great danger, that's supposed to be "my" weekend. I swear it's a miracle I ain't beat him senseless yet lol I honestly think his goal and purpose in life is to annoy me! Course I admit he does come in mighty handy for reaching stuff on shelves and ahem..parellel parking, at least he ain't backed into the house yet, but that's a whole other story rofl

It's Southern time ;) A couple of the words I use a dozen times a day are reckon, and yonder, so here's a lil phrase for ya. "I reckon he's over yonder in the paw-paw patch." Ok now reckon is somethin right close to "figurin" or assuming lol Yonder can be as little as 10 feet away, but generally means out of sight, and paw-paw patch is just another way of saying the field, pasture or garden. lol
Have a wonderful weekend ladies!

I hate to say it but I say "reckon" all the time. I think I really may be a hillbilly!

Wow, land is expensive there! Sheesh! With $100,000 you could get a nice house AND land here!

Sounds to me like Mr. Greg better watch himself or he's gonna get a "whoopin"! LOL

We have finally gotten rid of the thunderstorms too! But it is unseasonably cold! Brr! The kids must be getting antsy to get out of school. Have a good Sunday dear Aretha! (hugs)
