I just have to say how wonderfully blessed I am! I have so much awesome stuff for the garage sale, that it is just going to be so successful! I can't wait!!! I have sofas, filing cabinets, lawn equipment, guy stuff, housewares, decorating stuff, TONS of baby stuff and toys, clothes (high end stuff too!). It's gonna be awesome. Thank you all so much who have donated stuff, and even priced it because you know how my mathematical faculties are off!
I am sooo excited to do this garage sale! It's gonna be so much fun!
So, as you all know: I love to organize! Make lists, throw things out, put like things together....so organizing for the garage sale is right up my alley. I can thank my mother for this obsession of mine! I didn't get a chance to walk yesterday or today because I was so busy, but I was walking and standing all day organizing, so we'll play that off as even. I will be walking tomorrow, though!
It's been an eye-opening week as far as being a stay-at-home mom. It's made me realize that I really need to be more consistent with the girls. I'm glad I have this opportunity to do that! The one that needs a lot of attention right now is Yerena!!! My drama queen! She knows the rules, but she is sooo sneaky at trying to get around them. "I just forgot, I got confused!" are her go-to responses! So, today she got into a little bit of trouble and we're working on her discipline/punishment. Ahh, the joys of parenting! I'm a little embarrassed to say that my kids definitely need more! So, again: I'm here, I'm present and I'm making the changes that are needed to improve my life AND the life of the future. I wanna raise my children to be as "*wonderful*" as me! And I would insert a funny smiley, but that will frustrate me too much!
So what else is on my mind? 13 days cancer-free!
Got approved with insurance for Tykerb, so I'll get that drug tomorrow. (That's the drug that hits HER2 positive tumors and crosses the blood-brain barrier.
Had a huge blessing happen today. It is so miraculous on how it happened. So, yesterday David and I are going through the bills and realizing that we might not have the money to make an automatic payment (just because of timing issues). We were scrambling to transfer some monies around and I'm thinking of what we'll make on the garage sale/bracelet sales to help make bills. Then, out of the blue I receive a donation from the blog that helps resolve a lot of issues. I can't say anything else but the Lord provides when needed!
2 Corinthians 9:8
And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.
Okay, so I've posted, kids are asleep (2/3 of them at another house) and I am off to sleep alone in my bed. What blessings! Hopefully I'll sleep ALL night!
I love my life! :) :) :) I love my family :) :) :) I love my friends :) :) :)
you are right, consistancy is the key. also, another rule of parenting is to remember that everytime you make a decision, you have set a precident. their memory is amazing!
