March Thirty First...

I was off today... Hubby was at work... the boys were all home... son3 is watching movies and playing computer games... son2 has gone off to hang with friends... son1 is off at the zoo with girlfriend... hubby is home from work and off to the grocery store again... it is almost time for dinner and I have gotten nothing done today... well the washer, dryer and dishwasher are running, but that's about it... it rained this morning but now just puffy white clouds and blue skies...


Tomorrow is April already... I hardly got anything done in March... with the time change and now this cold I have had for over a week, I have just not had the energy... and me a host of The Motivation Station with no motivation, the shame of it... I have big plans! I have no oomph.... I go to work, eat, hang on the computer, watch TV, go to bed... I think I am in a rut... I am on vacation next week... I will recharge... Sunday is Easter... We have the ham, the Easter Bunny goodies, hubby doesn't have to work after all, although they haven't told the person who is working that they are working so hubby isn't out of the loop yet... Our store is open so don't know if son1 has to work... I'll be on vacation although supervisor hasn't actually said I got vacation but she doesn't say no when I ask her, just to make sure the new guy knows what to do, so I think that means I am on vacation... The thing is I don't see the new guy this week....


Last week I was out three days with this head cold... actually it started with the Saturn acting funny on the way to work so I came back home and called out but then got sick as the day went on... By Monday night I had a fever so called out Tuesday, son2 missed school too due to an upset tummy, son1 was off... which was all good cause son3 had early day and we didn't even know til he walked in the door and we all wanted to know why and how he got home, lol... Wednesday was my regular day off to recover and Thursday I was back to work... Hubby had to leave work to pick up son3 for early day again but went back later for a training class... Now here it is a whole week later and I am still sick with a stuffy nose... son2 has it now too and son3 started it...


Hubby took the Saturn in last Friday to get smogged and it passed so guess it was just a fluke cause it knew I was gonna be sick that day... Meanwhile we still have to take it in to get the brakes checked as they are squealing... The van is going in this Friday for the water leak, oil leak, intake valve hissing and it has squealing brakes too... As soon as the cars are running good again I want to start going on some day trips on Saturdays... I'm thinking depending on what we end up doing for Easter maybe we will go to the zoo and see what the animals got from the Easter Bunny... We need to color eggs on Saturday and hubby always plans a big plastic Easter egg hunt but forgets to think of a treat to put in the eggs so that is one reason he is off at stores right now...



Son1 is still trying to sell his Mustang, has lots of interested parties but no one wants to agree on anything close to his asking price... and he is working on getting a job in addition to the one he has as he is still getting little hours, although it is part time... he is used to working full time... he was off Sunday through Wednesday this week... He is always busy though going here or there with friends and girlfriend or hanging with his brothers...

The above graphics were colored by hubby and the boys and scanned into the computer... I also used the templates to make Easter cards and colored those myself...

Tomorrow is back to work to finish stocking the men's shoes and then Friday is a short day just to set the ad... Then I should be off for eight days! with the boys of course so no quiet time... hubby is back from the store... I did watch Castle the other night but I fell asleep, lol... but I taped it so finished it Tuesday night... son2 is now reading the book Heat Wave by Richard Castle... I washed all his bedding today and have his bedroom window open airing out his room... hubby found some Easter grass for the baskets... 78cents each... Walmart wanted $1.50 each... I remember when they were a quarter... I was going to just shred colored paper in the shredder...

OK off to put the groceries away... leftover deli chicken for dinner... I think if I just get back in the habit of blogging, then I'll find my oomph again... Be sure to visit me tomorrow at The Motivation Station, it's my day to host...

Happy Journaling...
