Christian's kindergarten program

this is Christian's end of the year kindergarten program. It's a bit shaky cause Billy was trying to wave to him while taking it. He's the one on stage with the orange shirt and green hat.

new sofas!

we got a new sofa and loveseat *soooo happy* the old ones were smelly and stained and had the stuffing coming out cause the seams got ripped open and no matter how many times i sewed them back up they tore open again. :/
here are some pics of the old (ugly blue) and the new (pretty brown) :)

old and ugly :P loveseat

feeling down

I think I'm gonna be stuck in my cracker box that's falling apart around me forever...

cell phone!

I now have my pretty new red cell phone!!!!! and i'm glad that red is a deep dark red not bright red (i wasn't sure when i order it...just didn't want "silver" which looked uh boring gray) now to figure out how it works...might post a pic later...it's the pantech duo (red of course) ;)

:/

I'm feeling down today.... :( i guess being sick during Christmas and not getting to leave the cracker box of a small dinky trailer for awhile (cause i'm sick) and then right before Christmas getting news that we didn't get the bigger trailer and then our pump on our well is broke (still waiting for that to get fixed) *sigh* maybe i'll have a better day soon :( and i guess i should add that the inside parts to the toilet tank need replacing ...we have to turn off the water to the toilet or it won't start running. but at least for Christmas my parents gave me money so i can get my pretty red cell phone when it comes back in stock.

*sigh* having a blah day....

so the stupid pump thing on the well is broken...so they bought a new tank...still broken so it might be something at the bottom of the well...been to freakN cold to work it...so today i'm still without water...billy was gonna hook up to my parents water hose next door so i could at least wash some dishes by hand and have running water for awhile but their was water frozen in the hose and he could get it thawed before he had to leave for work. So maybe tomorrow they might get me some water running in here while they try to figure out how to fix the well...and i woke up this morning with a headcold just in time for Christmas...have to carry on the tradition of being sick every Christmas. and I was excited that I was gonna get a nice new cell phone with some Christmas money that Billy's grandparents has so kindly sent us for Christmas but that money went to buy the new tank for the well. *sigh* now i'm bummed again. don't get a nice bigger place to live and no pretty new red cell phone. *tries to be happy* I know other ppl have it worse so I'm trying not to whine and be too bummed but I need a little pitty party for myself so I can at least enjoying watching my kids open their Christmas presents ...and maybe i'll be able to get the house cleaned up before then. :P

done waiting

after all the crap the mortgage company put us through. They said NO :/ so no nice big trailer.
