What better thing to do than cuddle, post an entry, and read blogs at 3 a.m.???? If I sit in the recliner and try to get Stacia back to sleep *I* will fall asleep.
Yesterday, I continued my quest to "get my house in order". I called our teacher at NARHS. Humbling. She began by saying, "De'Etta, What's going on? Your paperwork is usually immaculate and so organized?" ::snort:: I explained that Mike was deployed and other than that I don't KNOW why I'm behind. (Mike reminded me later that I'd been pregnant, had a miscarriage, graduation etc). I talked with her about Josiah's transcript/portfolio. She marked out a morning to work on his stuff and I'm mailing it off in the a.m. I'll pay for them to "expedite" his paperwork. They'll call in whoever does that to do it this summer for us and it will be done within a week instead of the typical 7. ::snort:: I finished his portfolio....his LAST one.
Josiah applied to the local university.
I picked up our new chaplain's children and we went to see Ratatouille. It was better than I expected. Stacia fell asleep - which may be why she is UP now. LOL Matt and Liz seemed to enjoy the break from moving.....their household goods were being delivered. Our children enjoyed the break from WORK. ::snort::
I placed a produce order. Shew - of the stuff we bought on Monday we've already eaten the case (small tray) of peaches, 2 lbs of strawberries, 2 lbs of grapes, 2 lbs of cherries, cantaloupe and pineapple. I need to go back to Sam's and buy a few more things...just enough to last until Friday is my goal.
Some friends are moving to Fairbanks. They had wanted to have a BBQ before they left. They waited for us to get home. Last night we went out to the lake and met with Todd and Debbie, Steve and Debbie and families. Fun, fun, fun. I took the Nikon to get good pictures. I put it in a safe spot...off the tables and on an unused BBQ grill. The boys were throwing a football and wham.....I see a small camera in my future. ::snort:: The irony is that my friend, Debbie, HAS a Cannon Powershot. She’s a photography buff and after watching the difference in our photos, and seeing what the Nikon does she’s saving for a D SLR. I told her to KEEP the small one too. LOL
I said, "no" to two appointments. LOL Josiah had the day off and ran errands for me. What a blessing!
Krista called and it was great to talk with her.
I still can't get the card reader to read, so no pictures....Josiah is going to vacum the computers tomorrow or something which is supposed to help.

Are you enjoying getting back into the swing of things now the vacation is over? I like that, despite really enjoying the vacation.
Trying to figure out why you went to look at a plate of french vegetable stew. I know you like produce, but that is a bit extreme!{g} I'm guessing it's a film?
Ahhhh....I was up from 3:30 til 5:45. The only reason I went back to sleep is the kids are at my gramma's and inlaws' houses and I have the flu lol. I'm up for a bit but going back to bed and then showering and hoping to feel normal before they get home early afternoon!
You have a nice reason to be up. I keep waking up at 3 or so and cannot get back to sleep! It's been a week and it's getting old!
We're about out of produce, too. I have to wait until Friday to go. The boys do not like grapefruit and that's about what we have left.
Dorothy, yes...I'm having a blast getting back into a routine. I especially like that my house FEELS HUGE to me now.
::snort:: yep - a movie.
Kelly - I do this quite often - but last night it was prompted by Stacia.
I caught up on your blog tonight . . you are the first one . . . I have many more to get too!
Your vacation looked and sounded like so much fun! It's amazing how organized you had everything . . .you all are an inspiration!
