Yard Saleing!

Do you drop the e and add ing. I don't know. Saling doesn't look right. Anyway, we didn't get too many deals today. I bought a little snail for the preschool. Little man got a football, some cars, several books, and some lady gave him several free things. Patrick from Spongebob!! I don't like Spongebob, those might end up at the Salvation Station. I went to the Salvation Army the other day and got Little man some slick britches to wear for his ballgames. They are a size to big, but I paid $5 for them pants. That's a rip off at the Salvation Army. They get that mess for free. I guess they have to pay their help and rent, huh?!!

I guess I need to get to cleaning on my house. We have been so busy that it seems nice just to be lazy a little bit. I feel guilty though.

We had Little Man's Parent Teacher conference yesterday. I saw his reports from last year compared to this year and I started getting teary-eyed and full fledged crying. Then the teacher began to cry. It felt so good to hear that the child was doing zip last year has improved so much. Even though he can't read everything, we are working on it. Even the report that she made was wrong. He knows more since she did the testing. I wanted to pat myself on the back. I know it's not all in what Shane and I have done. It is God through us because the Lord knows how frustrated I get with his homework. He only missed one on his spelling test Friday and that was because he added a d at the end. He spelled the work right but put it in past tense. One word he had to put in past tense then add ing to it for another word. I can see where he would get confused. She started out at the beginning of the year with 5 or 6 words and she was leary to give him the full amount. He has done awesome. I can't wait for my entire family to meet him. I wish it was Christmas time already. Yes and No. Time flies already.

Well, I shall get off and get busy. My hubby finally made his way outside to get the leaves up. Last year we had just moved in at this time and the leaves were herendous at Thanksgiving time. My dad and brother helped take pile after pile to the drop off of our property. S

Shane talked about going by the Lake today to just see how the water level was. Big Bill called and wanted to go to eat with him and his new girl. Saw her at the Big Fat Friday game. Little man racked up. Bro. Randy caught a football, and also ended up catching a frisbee, so did his daddy. Then I caught a football helmet necklace. I guess we'll hang it up with his sport room that I have yet to finish. One day I will get curtains done. I need to go buy material I guess. I can't find sheets that I can make a valance with.
