What a few days! I'm going to work backwards from today to a few days ago.
I go to an online local Yard Sale site where people can sell/but items here locally. There's one item for free that I was like "What!?" Someone actually put a piece of paper up for free!! Just a plain old piece of paper. Someone claimed it! I know people joke around, but a piece of paper!
Today is the day that we (at ScrapMatters) show off our latest kit. Round four of the contest we had to make a full kit. So in a few hours I'll be posting that. I don't know exactly when they'll pick the winner/s. I hope soon.
Also, today I cleaned the carpets and R is going through his stuff in the garage! Do you want to come over?? heehee It is WINDY once again! We've had winds up to 60 mph this week. You can't see the mtns. because of the dust. Yuck!
Thursday night, around midnight police & ambulance came around our corner, down our street. One of our neighbors' houses. It worried me because they have a newborn and two other kids. One of whom is J's age. More on the boy later. The next day, we went over to see what happened. The newborn was choking on milk and couldn't breath. She is okay and the mom was touched that we came by.
This family has been on out hearts a lot lately. The son is the neighborhood pain. Sorry, but he is. He was nice for awhile at first, then, we think out of jealousy, turned against J. He would literally ride by our house and make mean faces, talk about R and J, saying awful things. J even hit him once because of the stuff he'd say. He is not the most innocent kid either. The family speaks broken English, and are a different religion then us. None of these we have a problem with. When the mom was over due with her baby, I really began to pray for her and the family. J put in a prayer request for them too. I tell you something has changed in the boy. He bought J an ice cream from the ice cream truck. He is nice now. We never had a problem with the family, just the boy. So when we saw the ambulance there, we were really concerned.
Oh, also this week C found these cool shoes at the thrift store. R had always liked Chuck Taylor's (the old style high tops). He was just talking about them. She got some black, white and pink ones for under $4! Too cute. The guys are both jealous! Here's LO I made of them!
Have a great day!
