Halloween Costumes

Well it is time to get ready for Halloween again! We just made a family trip to Party City and dropped a pretty penny on costumes. I have an Iron Man 2 and an Iron Man war machine, and one Grim Reaper hubby!

Summertime is Over

Wow! Seems like just yesterday the boys got out of school! They have now been back in school for a week and half! Of course, they were lucky duckies because they only went 1 day last week. We had the pleasure of traveling to Orlando for a vacation in Disney World!

Thanks to Tupperware, we got great deals on transportation, meals, resort stay, and park tickets! Tupperware's Annual Jubilee (national conference) was last week in Orlando on Disney property. What an amazing experience! The training, reveals, and inspiration was phenomenal and first class all the way!

Time Management Training

So I was in Orlando Florida last weekend, at New Director Experience with Tupperware. An amazing opportunity to receive sage and wise advice as to how to be a successful director. I really went into this training with a desire to master Time Management of my Tupperware Business. I have learned what I need to do, but doing it however is going to be another thing. Self Discipline is something I have never really mastered, you know the saying, "the road paved with good intentions"? I could have coined that phrase. I have tried over and over again to master that skill, but somehow, I can always find something better to do.

Anyhow, it becomes more challenging when you throw life's little disractions in the way, such as Facebook, Email, Phone Conversations, and doctor's appointments. It seems that there is always somebody in my family that needs to go to some doctor for one reason or another. Today it was the third visit to the eyedoctor in the last few months. First it was my exam, and contacts, then my oldest son's exame and glasses, now my second son had his exam and we had to purchase yet another pair of glasses. Oh and the oldest needed a follow up exam from the first one! Yikes! Gonna need to take out a small loan in this family to cover the eye issues alone!

My favorite time of day...

Each and every school morning my alarm clock goes off at 6:20am. It is really 6:10 am. Is purposefully set my clock 10 minutes fast, mainly so I can take my time getting up, and hit snooze at least once if necessary. I turn off the alarm, let the dog and cat out, then settle in to the recliner and turn on my favorite news station. At 6:30, the boys alarm clocks go off and I look forward to my favorite time of day. The moment they come out. That is because when they do, they are sleepy and warm and snuggly! They anxiously crawl into my lap and snuggle up to get warm and try to wake up. We have about 7 minutes to do this as we wait for the weather forcast discuss appropriate attire for the day, and I get lots of "Mommy I love you so much"'s and I tresure each time I get these moments!

Female Friends

I am truly humbled at the strength that exudes the beauty of my female friends. So many of them have experienced truly amazing medical nightmares either themselves, or in their children I am truly in awe of them. Their heartaches make me a stronger person, and I am grateful for their willingness to share how God has shown his presence in those situations, a loving reminder of how faithful God is.
