Momma Drama

...a "moto-vated" one, and a "focused" one.

Saturday.......I made the family walk their hineys off. Yard sales, craft show, grand opening of the park, down to the other park for the greased pole climb, just everywhere. It was a very fun day all in all. Both Trent and Devin gave it their all on that pole....I can't wait to get the pictures developed. The prize was to be $20 for each of the first two people up the pole. Nobody managed to get up, so they divided the money between the kids. They ended up with $5 a piece, so we walked down to the gas station and let them pick pop or ice cream for all their hard work.

Trent went on his first ever sleep-over that night too.....oh my, that 'good-bye' was tough. :( He did very well......he ended up staying with them that day and went to the mud bog/race to boot. We headed over there for dinner, taking all the side dishes and had a great evening. During the day while Trent was still gone, Dave mowed the lawn and Devin and I finally finished the porch washing. I planted all my flowers in the front porch pots, painted the resin chairs with some hunter green Krylon fusion paint, and set out the new rocking chairs. My porch is really shaping up!

Today we took the biggies to Safety Town, then I went to tan. Got home and made Dave and Maiya go for a bike ride with me. Dave went to pick the kids up and we had lunch. After lunch we headed back outside. I filled up the pool, then scraped and painted the front door green. Painted Maiya's little rocking chair green too. Had the neighbor girlie over and her and Devin swam and got along smashingly. While they were outside, I dug a fire pit in the backyard and got it all lined with bricks. Rounded everyone up around 5 pm, washed people down, changed clothes and headed to Burger King. Went to Debbie's house, a 35 minute drive which is considered 'around the corner' for here. The kids played in the dirt and Debbie and I got most of the trampoline put together.

I need to unload some stuff out of the truck, take a shower, wash some clothes, straighten the house and have a drink!

G'night all!
