BUSY, BUSY, BUSY....

It seems that the older Mimi gets the busier I am. The other night when us moms got together while the girls and their dads were out a comment was made. Janet said that it seemed that last year when our kids were in kindergarten, it was like one big party for us moms. We had more time to get together. Why is that? I wonder??? You would think that since the kids are in school, we would have time to get together more often. As for myself, I joined the gym to get myself into shape or least try to. Also since the weather is cool, it's time to get my backyard together. I've got bulbs to plant tomorrow. Dad planted my rose bushes for me last Sunday. There are four bushes in all. Today Bryce came over to help me go out and pick up rocks to line my flower bed. Since going from two paychecks to one I am having to pinch pennies and buying the stones for the flower beds are costly. So now since there is a new developement going up, I went to pick up my rocks for free. In the next few weeks, the nurseries will be getting more plants and shrubs that I want to go and check out. Unbeknownst to Mimi, next month we will be making a trip down to Portland and on the way we will be stopping at The Great Wolf Lodge (indoor water park). I know she will be shocked. Last February Keri invited us to go along with them as it was Blake's birthday, but we graciously declined as we were getting ready for the Olympics. When Mimi got wind of Blake going there she was highly upset with me "I'VE BEEN DYING TO GO THERE AND YOU WON'T LET ME!!!" She would be even more upset if she knew Keri invited us and we said "No thank you".
