I am looking forward to today.

  I am so looking forward to today! This evening we will have some more friends over for dinner. I am doing anything fancy, just spaghetti and garlic bread. I just so love feeding and entertaining our boys in uniform!

Amber is out watching her boyfriend play paint ball. I was kidding her this morning and told her that she was the trophy girlfriend. Amber is so not into getting shot, and she does not like to be dirty! On another note, Amber had decided not to get her nails done any more. She said that was $30 a month that she could find a better use for. Well at lest she is thinking.

Today Rusty and I are going to go pick up some stuff for Nikki yard sale. I am telling you guys I am so sick of driving around and picking all of this stuff up. However, I know that by doing these things I am helping my children reach for their dreams and I need to keep my eye on that.

Ray called us last night and he finally got on the road. I am so happy for him, but sad for us. That is o.k. I know that he will be back, or that I will go out there. True friends never leave us, and I will never forget the memories that we have made with them.

Today I am going to try to get this house in order. Go pick up some stuff for Nikki, and cook dinner. Tomorrow while the children at school I will rest.

I was talking to Rusty yesterday, and he will be gone all week, so it is just the children and I for next week. That is cool. Those are the night when we cereal and do whatever we want.

So for now, I am going to go take a shower and get my day started.
