Had a very strange day today.

I watched my grandson this morning & he refused to sleep for very long.  After he left I had plans on taking everything out of the our basement bathroom.  I can't remember if I bought material to make curtains in the our not.  I want to get it all clean & organized.  It has been bugging me for weeks now, really since I moved in 4 year ago, I'm just tired of it.  But I didn't get to do that today.  Danielle called looking for Brandi to take her places to put in applications in.  She got her WIC switched from Cape to here.  Then we went to Walmart.  I went home to get Rose, she loves shopping.  So Elias needed a new car seat, front facing.  So I bought one for him.  Since JJ's birthday was last Friday, I got her a Tinkerbell chair & an outfit.  I bought Rose 2 outfits but one is for Spring.  I love buying little girls clothes.  They are so much cuter than boys clothes but boys clothes are getting better.  When we got home, Nathan was at the store buying something to9 cook for tonight.  They cook for use 3 or 4 times a week.  They even fix our plates & brings it to us along with a soda. 

It just seems like every time I think I will do some heavy cleaning, I'm in the mood & everything, Somebody always needs me to do something for them.  Strange how it works out like that.  If it keeps on I'll just have to set some priorities. And learn to say no.  I just don't like to say no when I know it is something that really needs to get done.   My cleaning can wait, it will always be there later. 

I have gotten one grandchild's Christmas all done.  Now 10 more to go.   I have Travis' Christmas bought already.  I'm doing really good this year.  I'm so proud of myself.  Speaking of proud, I haven't weight myself yet this week but today I wore my jeans & had to keep pulling them up.  I'm getting there slowly but surely.  I want to loose about 150 pounds.  And I hope I do it before my stepdad decides to do something with my mom's clothes.  She had told me if I lost the weight I could go shopping in her closets.  I'm not sure my step dad is going to let me do that.  I want her costume jewelry too, & her vanity with the chair & her big jewelry box & I wish I could wear her shoes cause she has some nice pairs of cowboy boots.  Her & I have always like the same style.  It was fun when I was a teenager & it was just me & her.  We would wear each others clothes & back then I could wear her shoes, too.  We had twice the wardrobe.  My mom was very critical of me in her last years but I know she loved me.  And I know that she was very proud of me.  I drove her nuts are times but she was still proud of me.  We became best friends.  There was very little that I kept from her.  If she found out she was hopping mad.  But she had a heartache & we were all afraid she would have another. 

Well, I'm really tired tonight so I'm going to call it a night.  I don't have Chris in the morning so I am hoping I get to sleep in.l  Then Thursday I have a doctor's appointment & a mammorgram,fun, fun.  I already know I will have to go back for a sonogram.  Or maybe they will do as they did last year & do both on the same day.  I really get tired of all things.  Once you have cancer, having these tests really wears on your nerves.
