Welcome to my world this Thursday...

Okay, this is just a random post that I just want to write so I can clear my head for the HUGE day's work I have facing me! Do you ever feel like you need to write to clear your head? Anyway, a few random things for today:

*Drinking sweet tea for breakfast....I have a headache from the Dr.Pepper/soft drink withdrawls so I am drinking some caffeinated sweet tea to help the headache. Hoping it helps!

*I am sooooo tired from the lack of sleep this week and I  had a VERY disappointing Tuesday this week but I did get to visit with family from Maine so that was great! Still, I am hoping this weekend is better. I had a rough week.  I get to see my sister and her sweet little family and have a baby shower for my niece! Praying it is a good weekend!

*I want a date night with my husband so bad. We REALLY need one right now! Praying that works out for us this weekend.

*I absolutely must get in gear and clean today!!!! All the sickness, traveling and then visiting and not being home has added up. I have sooo much to do!

*School is the same way. We have to get in gear today and finish the week strong!

*Charlie's car and truck, both are messed up right now. So, he is driving my van to work until he can get one of them fixed this weekend. Hopefully, today,we can get outside and get some yard work done or just play. I don't care. Either would be fine!

*The girls picked out some purple nail polish yesterday so hopefully, we can paint their nails today!

*Lots of reading today! :) That's always a great day!

* I am listening to this so much here lately. This is blue-grass, cajun, folk, rock, country, all that thrown together. The lead singer of this band(Evan) worked for my Dad and my husband when he was in high school and college. He's a sweet boy(well, man, now) and we love him to death! So, take a listen if you want and I am thinking about doing a give-away of sorts here on this blog with some of their stuff. Probably will try to do that in May, sometime. Stay tuned for that! In the meantime, head on over to their website!

*Making Blackberry Cheese Pie for dessert tonight! Yum!

so, that's about it for my day! I have to go and get in gear...thinking "Long Hot Summer Day" is gonna be some motivation for that! ;)

Have a great Thursday!

Hi Julie, I hope your caffeine headaches are gone now. I don't do any drink with caffeine now - & I am soooo thankful not to have those anymore! They're horrendous. I really enjoyed your post today - praying that you find some 'me' time to recharge your Mommy batteries this week. Have a blessed day. Hugs!
