Bad me,

one of my goals for the year was to stay on top of this thing. Guess I can officially say that since this is my first appearance in the new month of February that I am failing miserably. But on the bright side, it is not the only thing that is getting the shaft right now. lol

Just when I thought I was going to be able to spend a few days with my bps homework other stuff stomped all over it and I spent a few hours last night reading the book assignments and doing the workbook for the Get Organized class. I spent more than 2 hours trying to get a layout done and I still have 7 more to do just to figure out my approach. At the rate the interruptions are coming I will finish up around my 40th birthday! But seriously, I spent the first half of the week doing things I didn't want to be doing (and I had to keep reminding myself that I am the good daughter) and that I would eventually get time to for me. I did, a little anyway, and I did get some things done so I should feel some better.

I have yet to even get started on my Deck Me challenge that I decided to participate in. I am either crazy, or just waiting for the right bit of something to sit up and bite me. I have never worked on this size of project before (a deck of cards) and I think that it is the smaller size the is really stopping me from getting busy. I have a list of the weekly prompts, and ideas swirling in my head, so really I guess I am just waiting for the "GO" button to get pushed.

We got a new roof put on the house last week. It is wonderful not to have to pull out all available bowls to put under the drips in the living room, and Tuesday and Wednesday it got its share of rain. We had some very severe thunderstorms come through, and places to the West, North, South and East of us all had Tornados of varying degrees. Somehow Logan County was lucky and it just split and went around us. The destruction is heartbreaking and my heart and prayers go out to everyone affected by the storms.

122 babies as of this morning. Should have another one anytime as she was in the process when we were feeding this morning. My Carson from across the road has a little Carson. If she even lets me see it anytime soon I hope to get some pics of it. Just know that it is black with a white ring around its face just like Momma.

I guess I can say that I can cross off "Updating the Blog" to my list of things to do today. Now I just need to finish the laundry, print out my homework for this week, vaccumm up the cat hair *again* and get ready to go to Parent Teacher Conferences at the high school. 1100 students with parents wandering around the halls is not what I call a fun way to wrap up the day.
