I thought it would be fun to do a guestbook for those who come and visit my little corner of the world. It would be fun to hear from you, would you sign my guestbook? ~Shyloh~

Fetching at straws...

I haven't posted in two days...but it feels much longer.

I actually don't even have anything to post about, but I am going to try to come up with something...

Well, this is exciting: My mom thinks that baby Ney #9 will arrive some time this week. Woot-Woot!! I am so excited. I am praying for a girl, though I would be happy with a baby boy too (I won't send it back or anything if it's a boy.) I think the 9th or the 11th would be a good day for it to come. Doesn't October 9th just sound good? October 11th? I guess she could always wait until the 25th...that's a good date.

Today I had to work. I cleaned three toilets, folded six loads of laundry, polished all the stainless steel, cleaned a kitchen and cleaned all the windows. I was complaining in a text to Jeff about how by the time I quit working for Joslyn, I am going to deserve a metal for how good I am at cleaning toilets. His response was: You should compete. Ha, ha, ha...he's a funny one! In all, the day was pretty long and dull, but I got through it.

My mom and I are ready to kill our female goat, Lucy. She won't shut up! She has been bleating since 5am this morning! Not just a cute little: blah blah...but a super loud scream. She sounds like a toddler is being murdered. It's ridiculous. I think she's in heat. None the less, she'd better shut up soon. My mom is ready to shoot her with the air soft gun a few times. Lucy is currently locked up in our garage, and my mom is looking for scraps of material to tie around her mouth and hopefully work as a muzzle. Does anyone want a goat? She's all yours...

Yesterday afternoon after church, Jeff and I decided to go out to lunch and then go to the mall for a while. We decided to bring the girls with us, which was a lot of fun for them. We went to Mimi's for lunch, and it was really yummy. Then from there we went to the mall. After we got into the mall and had been walking around for a while, Jeff and I realized that we don't actually like the mall. We spent about twenty minutes shopping for a pair of jeans and a pair of shoes for him, (with no such luck by the way,) and we also picked out a pound of See's Chocolate before we headed back to my house. We hung out at my house for about an hour, before Jeff had to leave to head to church for worship practice. Shelbie, Shaylah and I headed to church about an hour after Jeff. After church, we all headed back to my house. Jeff hung out with me until 10:00.

I think I have allergies. My eyes are really itchy and burn, my nose is stuffy and I've had an ongoing headache for the past few days. I need to track down local honey and start taking a table spoon a day.

Speaking of my eyes, I have an eye appointment tomorrow morning. I don't think my last prescription was correct, so I'm eager to find out how far off it was.

Okay, I am fetching at straws to find something to write about. I'm done...Hopefully I will have something of interest to write about soon.
