WOW! Can’t believe it’s been so long! I just looked and its been over a year since I’ve been here. Its been a busy year!
Still no job, but thats the market here. There aren’t any. Rick is still working tho, and I have the kids for daycare, and I’m not really that upset about it any more. I have so many things to keep me busy its just very cool! All summer with the yard and the kids and the garden, which was AMAZING this year! Wow, we did SO WELL! Now, we are onto a new project! We learned how to can this fall, and some of the recipes we have used and come up with have become quite popular! So, ShawnDe has decided that they need to be sold! Maybe this is a way to make some money and whatnot, so why not? We have 3 different hot pepper jellies, plus plum and raspberry jam! YUUUUMMMMMMMM!! They are really good!!! ShawnDe liked these so much she decided to take them to work and now she has come up with the idea of Sample Gift Baskets for Christmas! OH MY!!!! Lol so now I am on a hunt for 4 oz jelly jars, and inexpensive baskets, and attractive, CHEAP decorations for the baskets…. wow! What an undertaking. The cooking is the easy part! I have designed a business card, and ShawnDe came up with the idea for an order form, so now I gotta come up with that! But I want it all to match so there is a challenge.
Then we have a new addition to our family this fall. Her name is Neveah, and she is 5 years old and just adorable! Devin and Savannah are thrilled with a new sister and I think Pheonyx is too, altho she is still the baby, so I’m not so sure how Neveah feels about another sibling thats younger than her. She has 2 already at home. She really likes having older siblings to play with, and that she doesn’t have to take care of them. Poor baby has had a rough life so far, but I think she is finding out that it doesn’t have to be that way. I hope they eventually get full custody of her. They can offer her a much better life! WELCOME NEVEAH!
I need to start keeping up with this better. I have to work more on my letter to my mom, as Heather was very interested in that, and I really want to finish it.
Thats all for now. More later.
