So where to start....

Well, I have a MySpace blog, but it's kind of crazy because only your 'friends' get to see it, and not everyone is actually on MySpace, so meh. Yes, meh to that.

So, Scott and I have got like 800 house projects going on. We have a contractor who is texturing 3 ceilings and doing some drywall patching. We have the missionaries coming over for a service project to help us straighten our fence on Saturday, we have our mom (Scott's mom) who will be painting the hallway, the other mom (my mom) who will be helping clean the house, Scott who will be finishing the paneling and trim in the living room, and the crown in the upstairs rooms, and then little ole me who will be doing the grouting of the tile in the dining room. WHEW. Crazyness. Yes, pure insanity. After all of that, I will go around the house caulking every imperfection so it looks perfect. Yes, yes I will. Now then, while doing all of this, I will be completing a masters course while working full time, and still finding time to play with Mat. Yep...insanity. Pictures of the insanity will follow shortly.

What else, what else. Well Mat is going through this lovely 'NO' phase. It's great. (Wade through that sarcasm.) He is definitely becoming his own little person. He has his great grandma's stubbornness that's for certain. It's too bad they didn't get to know each other in this life. I would have love to have seen those two. I'm sure grandma would just make his stubbornness even worse if that is at all possible! I am currently seeking any way to discipline a stubborn child...taking away toys doesn't work because he has an insane imagination and everything is a toy, time outs don't work...same reason, guilt trip 'oh I'm so disappointed' doesn't work because then if you do something he doesn't like he does it to you...I think sometimes I have a child that's smarter than me...That scares me. Aw well, I'll find something that works! Well Mat still wants to be an 'animal doctor'. He has said that since you first asked him what he wanted to be when he grows up. Though the animals he wants to take care of vary from day to day. Sometimes it's zoo animals, other times farm animals...when the cicadas where out he wanted to take care of them. We'll find out one day... Oh he's also telling everyone who will listen that he will have a baby brother or sister. Mind you I'm not pregnant yet, though Scott and I are trying...but everyone thinks I already am, because he is telling everyone he's going to have a brother or sister...Anyway, he's cute so what am I to do:)

So today is Sunday, and tomorrow is Monday, which means I have to go to work. Lots of stuff to do at work. I need to get all my documentation together to send to a partner. That's actually about the bulk of my work...but it's alot mind you!

Anyway, I'm about to head off to bed. You all enjoy my blog posting, and have a nice evening. I shall be back to write more later...well tomorrow...TTFN
