Ok, I'm Losing It !

Ok, i'm gonna chalk last night's tirade to hormones. I am feeling alot more sane now. I'm still a little stressed over it all, but it's her problem(s) not mine and I need to remember that. I'm just not sure what's going to happen if she ends up losing her apartment. It seems like my family's left all this up to me. If she ends up homeless, guess where she's coming. I don't mind helping her if she truly needs it but this is different and I'm lost as to what to do. So again, I apologize for last night's rant.

Today I had to take Hannah to her piano lesson. I always enjoy visiting with my friend from church. After that we headed to the Kia dealership so that I could check on a part that I needed to fix one of the kids' windows in the back. One of my kids, who will remain nameless, decided one day that he wanted his window open. Instead of pushing the button to open it, he just pushed the window itself and some kindof nut thing popped off the outside of the window. I was worried that I was gonna have to pay for a whole new mechanical thing but ended up just being able to buy the nut and a washer for $1.50. I totally pulled a joke on hubby when he called earlier though. I told him that I took the van to get fixed. He asked how much it costed and I told him "One fifty." He of course thought I meant $150.00 and I could sense the tension in his voice. I'm trying of course to keep from giggling. He made peace with the cost as we would've had to pay for it sometime anyways. I then proceeded to tell him "One dollar and fifty cents." You could almost hear the "shewww" in his head. That totally made my day:) I did tell him though, that I wished he was home (from Ca) so that I could see that vein actually throbbing in his forehead, but had fun with it nonetheless:) I'm easily amused...

We stopped at Walmart tonight to get supplies to make our "pokey pine" (pinecone) Christmas trees. We bought some spray paint and some glitter and also some beads to glue on as "ornaments". I will post pics when we get done with those.

We got our stockings hung up yesterday, not sure if I posted that last night or not. The kids were walking around talking about "bean stalks" and I assumed they meant the story of Jack and the Bean Stalk, I really wasn't listening too closely. Turns out they were talking about their STOCKINGS and they thought they were called bean stalks for some reason...

Hubby called me earlier and asked what I thought about moving to San Diego. I guess he's in love with it there. I'm supposed to research on the internet tonight the cost of living, rent, etc. I always swore that I would NEVER live in California but for some reason I'm "O.K." with it right now. We'll see where this train goes....
