Just when I thought life was getting so dull & boring...

Just when I think I cannot stand my boredom this is what I get....oh by the way the grand kids are still the best on the planet...I have just one more picture of Ellie that my daughter, Kelly, just added to her own blog but I must share it on mine as well for all my friends/family to enjoy!

I got that job I applied for before Christmas, God is watching over me obviously because I had all that time for Christmas preparation without working too. I also am teaching Chinese exchange students English from end of Jan. to mid Feb. and I have to get 19 more families to host these kids by the second week of January, if not sooner. The lady I am doing it with has been sick, had to work full time and now is going on a Missions Trip (I am not the only busy one) anyhoo....I have so much to do and now I will be working too, YIKES!

But isn't it just amazing what you can do when you HAVE to? I got up today realizing I don't have all the time in the world to get housework done so I set to work cleaning carpet stains even and all that extra load after the holidays. The kids were here (Milo's) so I have extra to do whenever they leave.

I do not know why I tackle projects but I always take on more than I can chew!

I decided to polish my china cabinet, get stains out of carpet, try once again to get the marker drawing my niece did for Christmas off the entertainment footstool. No luck bu the walls are better!

What can you do? She is 4 and has Downs so we all were just having fun so she decided to have a little fun too. We now have a Picasso Olivia style! Sweetheart she is!

Anyway I feel blessed to be working again and know I will be helping out! I feel lucky to be here with a place over my head all this time. I really appreciate Milo putting up with Jeena & I for over a year now....

Hopefully it's that level of busy that's enjoyable.

I love to be busy within reason. I hate to be stressed out busy.

I can't believe you got the job!! I mean, I totally believe it, but it's so exciting!
