Well, I have been a busy little bee cleaning out things from my house and putting them into my friend's garage sale to get rid of it, over these last couple of days. I made enough for about one gallon of paint and a few supplies so I am happy with that. Yesterday, we went over and helped take what was left over to a charity donations shed. Today, I got up early to get ready and get the J-Boys ready and fed because we had to be at church early today. I along with some friends were putting on a skit today. We had to set up props and have a run through. Sorry, but I forgot to get pictures :( We had great fun and it went really well. It was a very funny script so the audience had some great laughs. J#1 and J#2 had a part playing my children, which they did great!! I was wearing a blond bob wig and a loud 80's looking dress because we were to be nerdy looking. So we looked the part. The guy who played my husband had these big glasses on and had his pants pulled all the way up and wore white socks with sandals, it was great. The point of the skit was to be missional in your neighborhood. The couple we played thought that since they were very religious they didn't want to associate with their neighbors who were not. Then a missionary couple stop by and tell them missions start in their neighborhood.
After church we ate and Mechanic Man went to help a lady in our church clear out some stuff in her backyard so the J-boys and I went to Sprouts to snag the deals there and on the way there J#1 spills his RED strawberry drink in the car, mind you we have a rule that there will be no cups in the vehicle that are not spill proof since getting the Expedition and in a moment of weakness I let him bring his cup from lunch and I thought in the back of my mind "don't do it" next time I listen to that voice, so I am almost at Sprouts and make an emergency run into Walgreens for the most powerful carpet stain remover they have and thankfully got the stain out, while I am doing that Mechanic Man calls me because he is having to run home to get a chain and he remembers that he doesn't have a key to the house. Well, I am about 45 min. from home at this point so I can't help him, so I go into Sprouts get my shopping done and then try to call him on my way to Wal-Mart for a few items. Let me just ask, why when I go to Wal-Mart I always get the shopping cart that has a whoopy wheel that wants to go one way when I am trying to go another and it is like wrestle mania trying to make a turn and when you have heavy weight on the front with J#1 and J#2 standing on the cart it is almost impossible!! I do feel like I have had a work out when I leave there, but come on. I think all their carts are like that. I don't get one of those carts at Sprouts or Tom Thumb only Wal-Mart. Maybe cheap prices = cheap shopping carts. Anyways, so I don't get a hold of him because his phone is dead so while I am in Wal-Mart with my whoopy wheel buggy he calls me and wants to know if I am home yet. I tell him no and he says that I need to go home get the chain and come to where he is. So I am standing in line and J#3 is crying and wants out of the buggy I lift him out and smell why he wanted out and of course I did not bring in his bag because I was going to be in there for only a few minutes so I unload everything change J#3 and then run home, unload groceries put away the cold stuff and find the chain load back up and drive to where Mechanic Man is, give him the chain and of course J#1 and J#2 want to help load up stuff on the trailer, they are such big helpers. They loaded some stuff then we went home and I gave them some dinner and put them to bed. I am tired myself just with all the running around I did. I will sleep good tonight.

I heard the man who invented the shopping cart recently passed away..........
The hearse had a "whoopy" wheel in honor of him!
Hey sorry I busted my first line...but it WAS indeed great fun!
I am SO sad I missed it--both my boys have strep...I heard it was great though!
Glad the skit went well...and I have yet to find that wig! Sounds like it was a busy day!
Girl, YOU make me "tired" just reading this...I do love the story about making enough money to maybe buy one gallon of paint....I remember when your mom got on a "mission" of picking up change to save up for "vacation, or trip to see bubba or "just because"....she would tell me about the quarter, or the two dimes she found while cleaning up...YOU SOUND just like your mom's "mission" story, and I'm sure your "updates" at your home will turn out wonderful!
