Thanksgiving was soooooo peaceful and quiet... Although mom and I had a few issues w/cooking - she sort of took over the turkey and sides.... Then she made the stuffing from TOTAL scratch (not my favo) and shortcutted the sides by using the microwave to start the veggies.... arrrggggggggggggggggggggg BUT we survived and the food was good... We had soup and creamy turkey leftovers the next couple of days...
I took the boys down to see E's mom and sister up from GA Thurs late afternoon - his mom asked when I was having another and then commented on finding another job... WTF???? Ummmmm I am dumping your son AND my job is moving when the base closes --- just what has E said or maybe NOT said???? Whatever!!!!
E took the boys for the entire weekend this past week... It was nice and quiet in the house... I worked on the van - replacing the thermostat and pcv valve... Learned I DON"T have an EGR valve so gonna do the sparkplugs and put in an airfilter that is missing and see what happens.... PRAYING that things start working right w/the van as I really need it to last me atleast another 8 months to a yr minimum - so y'all keep praying.... Then I spent the time mucking out their rooms and setting up a bunkbed set in Dev's room for the boys.... I also managed to get rid of a few things in the shed, covered some windows w/plastic and did a little toy decluttering... I am making progress although not as much as I would like... I have my list though - FINALLY wrote it down which will help me make more progress...
E is supposedly bringing the tree over on Weds so I have a little list of things to do before then so it will be busy in my house the next couple of days PLUS they are calling for THAT STUFF tonight - could be 7 inches!!!!!! UGH UGH UGH!!!
Well it's off to finish up some paperwork and sneak out since I have a killer headache!!! Til next time...
