Busy and Tired!

Man! I feel like I have been going non-stop! Sorry I have neglected my blog and reading all of yours too......

This week I have to be at work at 9am, previously she wanted me in at 10 or 11 allowing myself to get a short nap between the paper route, getting my kids ready for school and having to be at my second job. Now I am afraid to try and just snag a small nap, (about 45 minutes!) In the past I have turned off the alarm and just kept on sleeping! I refuse to oversleep for my new job!!!!! So now I am just stay up, fix some tea, check out my email and decided I should post!!!

Ricky got his two pairs of Tommy Jeans from eBay and he LOVES them!!!! We had to have the shortened for him, but he looks so cute in them! He has a thing about wearing something buttoned or snapped around his waist, he prefers sweat pants for sure, but next year he will go middle school, I can not send him there in sweats! He would be eaten alive!!!

Between jobs, I am also painting wooden Christmas ornaments. They are soooooo cute! I am very pleased at how they are turning out! There are gingerbread boys and girls, santa's, teddy bears, penguins, and snow people too! Oh yeah and Raggedy Ann!!! I'm learning all about shading and highlighting to give them that 3D look! I talked my mom into buying a set so she could give them to the grandkids. She does this every year, she gives ornaments to all her grandkids. My kids get so excited each year when we pull them out to hang on the tree! For some reason I thought we had to do a total of 18, I thought I was doing very well! Recently I noticed that we still had quite a few left to finish, I have been mistaken, we have 24 to do!!!! I have been working like a mad woman to get them done!
Happy Tuesday to all!
