Day 716 and almost free lunch

Tom & I went out this afternoon and used one of our gift cards from my graduation. It was really nice and a great meal at Western Sizzlin'. We really enjoyed ourselves. We're going out on a date tonight. We're really trying to go out by ourselves more often, which I think is important to our marriage. We've always kind of back-burnered that and I thought when the kids got older, we'd do it more often, but we have not. It's been nice. Hope everyone has a super weekend!

Day 715 and a 2 week vacation

So I found out yesterday that I don't have any kids Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday next week. I was to be closed Christmas Eve through New Year's Day and so now I get a 2 week vacation. I can't really afford it, but I think I'll enjoy it anyway. LOL. I was off for 3 1/2 weeks after my hysterectomy and 2 weeks after the fire, but those weren't really vacations. HA! Hopefully I can get a lot of stuff done around the house as well as lots of reading done!

Days 713 & 714 and really neglecting the blog

I apologize for my neglecting of the blog lately. I've been avoiding the computer quite a bit since I finished my classes and there's been lots of turmoil here in the child care and I've been feeling pretty blah about it all. While I love working for myself, there are days that I long for a regular paycheck. Then again, that's not all it's cracked up to be either, just ask Tom.

Anyway, I have a couple of prayer requests. Tom's company is offering them a chance to work some Fridays doing some deep cleaning. Please pray that it works out and Tom is able to do it. Additionally, please pray that I fill my openings quickly.

Days 708, 709, 710, 711, & 712 and official a college graduate


The graduation ceremony on Saturday was just wonderful. I had a great time spending the weekend with my sweetheart, too. It feels weird, but really good to be done. I've attached a picture of me from Saturday.
