I've been quite busy...I guess a little too busy to blog. My boys have had baseball games every night so after I get home from work, we are usually at the field until bedtime! Thursday night, Isaiah had a game "under the lights" in Monaca that didn't start until 8! And to boot the weather was FREEZING! We wore our Friday night football gear because it was so cold. Isaiah played really well. He had two really good plays--the one play ended the game at 10PM and won the game for his team. He was estactic and so was I because we got to go home! Jeremiah and Corynne did not enjoy that game!

I swept up my cell phone charging cord in the sweeper! Nice! But did you know Walmart sells just about every type of phone charger for less than $15!? I got a new one and I will try to be more careful.

I mailed 80% of my invitations for Jordan's graduation party. I still have a few to mail out, but I need some addresses. I also have some more to pass out to people. But I feel like a huge weight was just lifted!

I was weeding my flower garden today and I happened to look down at my hands. There were over a million tiny ants all over my hands and my arms. I was a tad bit freaked out! I still keep itching! There must be an any colony in my railroad ties that mark off my flower beds. It's okay though. I sprayed half of bottle of ant spray right into their home. They should be all dead by now. I just don't know what will make me stop itching.

We watched the movie "Juno" last night. Oprah raved about it. Rightly so--It was very very good. It is about a 16 year old girl who gets pregnant and wants to give the baby up for adoption. I don't want to give too much of the movie away because it is really good and you should rent it. I cried when Juno delivered the baby--some parts of the movie were just a little too familiar. :-)

Only two more weeks of school and I know I can make it!

We got our truck all fixed up. It had some major major issues with an oil leak and a radiator problem and some other stuff. We had to use almost our entire Bush Stimulus check, but I thank God we had the money available to get the truck fixed.

I am sure everyone is tired of hearing about gas prices. But it is quite ridiculous. With our Expedition, (that we just got fixed with all of our Bush money)--gas hits us pretty hard. I told Cory he should get a motorcycle to drive back and forth to work. I was actually kidding with him, but he took me seriously.

Happy Memorial Day! We are spending our day catching up on some work around my house and Grammie's house. Then we are going to have a little birthday party for Gram because her b-day is tomorrow.

I loved Juno!! I cried so much at the end that Matt didn't know what to do with me. :) I think part of it was just my mood that day.

Just reading about the ants is making me itch. I would have seriously freaked out. I can't stand crawly things. Spiders are the worst of all!
