Today is Sunday

I played with my blog yesterday. I put the wp-grins back on, I used to have them, but in one of my upgrades they got taken off somehow. I found them and they are on there again. I also downloaded Windows Live Writer. It is really easy to use, but I will probably only use it to show pictures, at least for now. I will play with it more when I have time and see. I added the plug-in for pictures and smilies, so it is all set. I just ran out of time. :fwwink:
Today we are going to church and then I have to start cleaning house and doing laundry. Have a great day!! :buggie:

busy, busy

Today is Saturday

We went to Hallmark last night, it is a Webkinz celebration, and we had to get Joshua a new Webkinz because it is time to re-new his membership. He got a Collie and they were giving free Webkinz with a $10 purchase, so he got a Yorkie also. They are cute. We then went to Wal~Mart and got a few things and it was fundraiser night at Pizza Hut for Joshua’s school, so we went to get some pizza. It took them too long to get us our pizza, so it was free, which was good for us, but bad for the school I guess, I do not think they will get any money off our pizza. We came home and got Joshua’s Webkinz all moved in. He let his Yorkie be a girl, so I went shopping for her at the W Shop. I had to get her pink clothes and a pink room. I had a blast. I also talked to my friend Adriane on the phone last night and also this morning. She has a Yorkie if you were wondering why Joshua would want a Yorkie for a Webkinz. We loves Adriane and her Yorkie named Maisie. Maisie has had a UTI, so she was filling me in.
It was a busy week with going back to my night class. I did have homework, but I have it all done. Did I mention we are dog sitting again? We have Mandy’s sister Linda Mae with us and also Karl’s parents other dog Snoopy. He is a dachshund. He is really sweet. He has been sleeping with Joshua at night. I do not keep him put away in the kitchen with the Corgi’s, he is older, so he has just had the run of the house. He has done great.
I plan to rest today. It is nice and the dogs have been able to play outside a lot. I slept in late and I needed it. I will be by to visit soon. Have a great weekend!!

Saturday Special!

back to night class

Today is Tuesday

I was able to get all of my work done on Sunday. It was nice to have some time to myself to get some things done. Karl and Joshua enjoyed the baseball game and the Cardinals won.
Joshua and I went to the dentist today and had our teeth cleaned. We didn’t have any cavitites, Yay!! I do not mind going to the dentist if we do not have to go back to have cavities fixed. We are good until October when we have to go back.
Tomorrow I have to go back to my night class. It has been nice not having to go to that, but it is almost over, so I may as well go and get it wrapped up. I have a feeling we are going to have a lot of homework tomorrow night because she has not been in the classroom these past 3 weeks. She has been giving us work online to print and do, but I feel like it is busy work, we have a lot more things we have to get finished up for our Final and not much time.
I had better go for now. It is raining out and I do not need the DSL to get struck by lightening again. Have a nice week!!

church and baseball

Today is Sunday

Today we are going to church and then Karl and Joshua are going to the baseball game. Today Mark Mulder will be pitching in Springfield for the Springfield Cardinals team, but he is a pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. He is coming off the injured list and making some starts with the minor league teams. I would love to go and see him, but I really need to catch up on some homework, so I will stay home and get that done and also clean house and do laundry.
Jana also got my wp updated and it seems the plug-in for gravatar is not compatible for versions of wp higher than 2.1.3….so I am trying some different gravatar plug-ins. I really like the one I had. I do not do well with change. It is better than that crazy gravatar image though. UPDATE: Jana sent me a link to a gravatar plug-in that is compatable with the newer versions of wp and it is working great. Thank-you Jana!! If you need it, here is the link: http://zenpax.com/gravatars2/ .
I gave Mandy her bath last night and she got her flea medicine also. She is all set. She smells so good.
I better get my day started, it will be a busy one. Have a nice week!!

catching up

Today is Saturday

It is nice and sunny here today. I do not have much going on. It was a quiet week. We did the Dr. Seuss theme at the pre-school and it was a lot of fun. We read Green Eggs and Ham and I cooked green eggs and toast with jelly for the kids. They thought that was the greatest thing in the world. They ate the green eggs with no problem, but it talks about trying things in the Green Eggs and Ham book, so they did good. We will be doing a frogs and toads theme next week. :)
My teacher for my night class is still out from her surgery, I have my homework done from what she has given us, but I have some journal entries I need to write and type up. I plan to do those tomorrow. Karl and Joshua are going to a baseball game and I will have some quiet time to get some things done. We have a portfolio to turn in as our Final and the journal entries are part of it. I always forget about them. I only have a couple weeks of classes left, so I better get this stuff done.
Karl and I have been looking for some new furniture. We plan to get a new sofa and chair in May. We are excited.
I guess that is enough for today. I will be by to visit blogs soon. I hope you have a nice weekend.

Time goes so quickly

Today is Sunday

I did some homework yesterday and got some rest. I have a lot of reading to get done. I will finish my reading on Monday night hopefully. It is interesting, it is for my Cognitive Development class. It is hard to believe that class is almost over, that the school year is almost over and that I have been taking college classes for a year now. It seems like I just started. I still have so far to go though.
I e-mailed Jana about my blog here. It seems I do not have enough space to even update my wordpress, so I think it is actually time for me to re-new my site, so I will hopefully have that and the wordpress stuff updated soon. I was wondering why I couldn’t update it anymore. Those crazy upgrades eat up my space.
Today we are going to church and then we a will come back home and do our normal cleaning and laundry. We have Life Groups tonight. It will be a busy day. Have a nice week!!

weekend

Today is Saturday

We got our DSL back Monday afternoon. I also had to get registered for my classes that day. I am going to take a class online and also a class at the University, but my schedule is not going to be overwhelming at all this Summer. That will be nice. I am looking forward to my classes and Summer with Joshua too. My advisor registered me for 2 classes this Fall also, I was only going to take one, but he said I would think they were easy, so I am going to trust him and hope for the best. He also advised me not to take the Math class I was planning to take this Summer. He said I would be killing myself if I took that with the other classes and advised to take it in the Fall or Spring and by itself. He said it was a difficult class unless you are very confident in math….which I am not. So I am all set and ready to go.
My teacher in my night class is still recovering from her surgery and we do not have class again this week. That is nice. She is doing ok, she e-mailed the other day, so that is good to know. She gave us homework to do, so we are not behind.
Today I am going to rest. I always try to get my rest on Saturday. I will be by to visit. Have a nice weekend!!
