Selling my stuff

I'm not in a very good mood right now, black Friday is over and I didn't get to do any shopping at all. Christmas is three weeks away and we haven't done barely any shopping. I should be able to go out and do a little shopping without asking. We have a wedding to go to in two weeks and I need a dress to wear. I was at the mall last night looking at dresses and Donny wanted to leave the mall. I wanted to buy myself something nice because I deserve to not look like crap. I need to rebraid my hair right now but I know if I tell my husband that I need just 50 dollars it will turn into an argument. So I'm selling my much loved and expensive things I bought myself when I was single. I miss being single right now. LOL It may not sound like the most positive thing to say but I don't care. I hate not being able to just relax and enjoy time to myself. I don't know when the last time I was able to stay in the bed and get some privacy. I'm not happy right now, so I figure if I write my feelings down it will change my mood. We are putting the Christmas tree up today and I don't want too ruin it because I'm upset right now. I will be very happy when I sell my stuff and get the things I need. It takes money to make sure you look nice and to make sure you don't let yourself go. I will post when I finally sell my stuff. WISH ME LUCK!!!

Thanksgiving 2012

Yesterday at dinner with our other family the Huffs. We ate dinner in the church, I had a great time and enjoyed being around other adults. I wanted a picture of my family that I am very thankful for. Today we are having dinner with my inlaws, we also ate dinner with my family yesterday too. Tomorrow we are hanging out with the huff family again and hopefully we will be at church on Sunday.

I love my family :)

Olivia's school project

Today Olivia and I went to the fabric store to get supplies for her Thanksgiving project on being thankful. She had to make a quilt and put things on it that she is thankful for. She is such a sweet little girl and my favorite things that she mentioned were having a bed to sleep in and having food to eat. That made me proud of her because she has a lot of material things and she didn't mention one of them. I am very thankful for my family and where we've come from these past few years. We went Christmas shopping over the weekend with such ease, not worring about money. Two Christmas's ago Donny was laid off and his unemployment ended right before Christmas. I held in my disappointment as long as I could and I broke down on my cell phone to my mother in the grocery store. All I could think about was my little girl not having any Christmas presents. Everything worked out but in the moment I paniced with the uncertantity of what was to happen next.

Busy day

Today the hubby and I went a little Christmas shopping. We went to a couple of places today and enjoyed a little time together. We bought the kids twinkies also because the company that makes them are going out of business. When we were done shopping picked Olivia up from schooln went home, and I cooked spaghetti for the family. We were going to go to the mall but the kids are tired and if they are out late then that makes them super cranky the next day. So my inlaws are coming over to hook up my new dishwasher my hubby bought me. I will write later and post pictures of my new dishwasher. :)

Its saturday morning

My hubby bought me a phone that has access to all my media accounts. I can get on twitter, facebook, and I can write in my blog from my phone. So this is my first post using my cell phone. Last night I went to zumba class while he watched the girls and I was the happiest ever. I've been telling him that I needed a day when I can do something without the kids but for months I haven't done anything. So I scheduled a time to go to zumba class with an old friend and it was amazing. The zumba instructor was awesome, she kicked our butts. And after class they always take a group picture of everyone looking a sweaty mess. I tried to pose and look extra cute. LOL

Ok I'm going to make french toast for the girls for this Saturday morning. Olivia woke me up saying, "mommy it's french toast day. Here is a picture from zumba class last night

it's 12am and today is election day

i am so nervous about this election i am not sleeping at the moment. i am voting for the president for the second time because i still believe in all the things he spoke of in 2008. i am hoping and praying that he wins again. i went to church and i prayed for obama, i have been praying for obama for the past months, and i have been praying for obama all day today. i kept my paper the day after the election when he won and i would so love to post another picture of another paper declaring him as THE WINNER.

here is a picture of the three of us right before donny went to work in 2008. we are wearing obama shirts and olivia was just a baby. we were so happy and full of hope and change for a better america.

i am going to try to get a little sleep. when my hubby gets in today we are going to go vote. olivia wants to be in the voting process too. she told me, "I WANT TO VOTE FOR A-ROCK OBAMA". LOL this is a very important election for our country, please GOD IN HEAVEN SHED YOUR GRACE ON OBAMA FOR HIS VICTORY
