family, kids, dog
OK peoples...seriously,my kids never fail to amaze me! 
The girls have been keeping a close eye on this adorable little dog whom we have named "Sally". She is very good natured and sweet...but I am trying to find her a home. My husband and I are 'thinking about' keeping her. I just don't know with the cats we have already, it just feels crowded with another animal. Anyone have any advice on what we should do with her?

Today I had the privilege of visiting with 2 very special family members. My uncle, who lives in Houston and my cousin, (the dark haired guy) who's family are missionaries in the Ukraine.

sorority sisters, love, life, family
...
Today was a pretty cool day.
1.I found out that Cinnamon (my dog I had to give away) is alive and doing well! She is living on 14 acres of land and I KNOW that she is loving it. The new owners even agreed wholeheartedly to let us visit. This will be a wonderful thing for my little one who was very attached to Cinny.
2.My husband had another job interview.
(he still has a job with the company he was with but it doesn't start until later this month)
3.I had a wonderful night's sleep last night. This is very important to me because lately I haven't been sleeping well.
4.Because of a glitch in my most addictive game online, Sorority Sisters...I now have 900,000,000.00 dollars y'all!!!!! Seriously! I am stoked and bought a ton of S.S. things! (online only, remember it's just a game)
This is just some of my sisters...I am working on 200.
5.We bought a watermelon today.
Studies show that watermelon has viagra like properties.
NOT that WE need that.
Anyway...besides that we went to the library,took the little one to practice and cooked and cleaned. Overall it was a nice and busy day.

opera community, donut, family, blogging
...
Yesterday my husband went 200 miles out of town to find work. There just anything here that would fit his pay range! I mean, there are jobs alright, but paying one third of what he makes right now. We are living off of his unemployment and government assistance. I don't consider MY FAMILY the failure, I consider big businesses the failure!
If it wasn't for big business making terrible decisions then we wouldn't be in this predicament right now. My family around me is in no position to help us, either. They are also struggling to pay bills and keep food in the house. It has never been easy raising 4 girls but this time is different. When you are accustomed to a certain lifestyle then the slightest change can really hurt.
So, my best life is lived just here on the net. I play FarmTown and Yoville in Facebook and it is a life that I wish I could live. Games are games. A pathetic comparison to real life. These 'real life' games are not real life at all. They are fantasy. There might as well be zombies and vampires running around on the farm.
On an upside about the economy. It is teaching us to be even more frugal than we were before. We are actually eating healthier and in smaller portions.
Too bad my body likes it's fat.
I talked to my husband's ex boss yesterday. He was encouraging us to stay here because he is getting into another business that he wants my husband to join him in. Let's hope it happens soon! *fingers crossed*
Oh! I totally forgot...I have decided to cut the carbs way out of my diet. Wellllllllll this morning I was making my coffee and saw some of those little powdered donuts on the counter. I picked up one, nonchalantly, and chewed it. Mmm sort of thickish. Sort of powdery. Sort of...ewww. What is that layer of slime it is leaving on the roof of my mouth? It felt like I had taken shortening straight from the can and licked it like icing.
I didn't even bother reading the package from fear of knowing the truth.
Despite the stickiness, I pinched another bit and put it in my mouth. The sugar was calling my name. I fell under the weakness of the fluffy little powdered donut.
Someone asked me about my knitting yesterday. I just realized, I have totally abandoned that hobby. Maybe I will take it back up when I am 70. Right now I have to concentrate on other things, like cutting carbs.
