Happy Mother's Day

I hope everyone is having a wonderful mothers day! My hubby and kidlings bought me a new 30 GB Ipod Video.....do you know how many songs this beauty holds???? I am psyched. I have an older shuffle, which my hubby will use when mowing....I just have to load it with tunes for him. It was great but you can't see what you are listening to.......you just push play and wait and see what you get.

So I got breakfast in bed twice. How many of you can say that??? Lttle Miss S brought me a small bowl of apple cinnamon cheerios with bananas and then Mr. J made bacon, eggs, and home fries. Can I just say yummmmm-o.

I worked on the shawl while I was lamenting about in bed......I was scolded when I came down to pee. (sheesh, I have had 3 kids my old bladder is not as strong as it used to be come on guys!!) I really want to get that thing done!!

I planted my strawberries, and filled my window planters with big ol' Begonias. Hung my fuschia and planted my tomatoes.

Thanks to all of you who commented or e-mailed after my last post. I think it will get better. Life is just filled with lots of uncertainty right now. We will get through it day by day. For those of you who pray, hopefully tomorrow we will have some answers and a path to take. I think as long as the outlook is positive ( and thus far no one has said it won't be, but ten again part of the problem is that no one is saying much of anything, other than the "C" word) and we know what is going to be happening, it will lift a huge weight off of all of our shoulders. I wish I was going with them, but unfortunately no one can watch the kids, and it wold not be a very enjoyable trip with the 3 of them!!! So any how for those of you who believe in the power of prayer or positive thought......keep em' coming please!!!!
