Wow I can’t believe that January is almost behind us. Soon it will be February and it will be Valentine’s day. For the past couple of days I have been searching the Internet for valentines day present ideas and I think I’ve come up with a few ideas on how to surprise my husband. Not only is February 14th Valentine’s day, but it is also my husband’s 44th birthday as well. So I have to come up with some extra special for this wonderful day. I still have a little time to make a decision on what to purchase so I’m not worried yet.
How about you guys? Have you come up with any great gift giving ideas?
It seems like it’s been forever since I’ve had the house to myself. But it’s really only been a week. Last week I had a couple of my family home sick for most of the week as they were sick and the other two days the kids were home due to bad weather. Well I am happy to report that they are all out of the house today! So I get to do anything I want today without having any people underfoot. I love a quiet house!
My husband’s 44th birthday will be here soon. And I want to find him something special this year. He hasn’t really been feeling very good these past couple of months and I think I super nice present might just pick up his spirits. I don’t think I should find any 60th birthday gifts for him as he wouldn’t find that very amusing. But I’m sure within the next couple of weeks I will be able to find something suitable. His birthday is actually on Valentine’s day so it’s a doubly special day. I just hope I can find that perfect gift to celebrate both occasions.
Finally after 12 years of living here I have talked my husband into purchasing me a dishwasher! I can’t wait. I have been bugging him for the past 12 years to purchase me one and for the past 12 years he has come up with every excuse in the book as to why I don’t need one. He did try to argue that we don’t have the room in the kitchen for one as we have a huge food storage container sitting in the kitchen but when I pointed out that we could put this unit in a different room, he finally relented. So this weekend we are going dishwasher shopping and I for one can’t wait! It’s been a long time coming!
So after kind of a slack weekend, I am faced with a massive amount of work this morning. Not only do I have to complete some articles on all natural diet pills but I also have tons, and tons of housework to do as well. I don’t think I’ll even have time today to get in any “me” time. I have so much to do today that it’s actually starting to depress me. Oh well. I did it to myself. If I had done a bit of work this past weekend, I wouldn’t be faced with this mountain of work today. So I guess I have no one to blame but myself.
Well if your visiting this blog and reading this post, you may have discovered that I now have a page rank of 2! This makes me extremely happy. For a couple of years now I haven’t had any page rank on this blog and had actually come to the conclusion that I never would. But I have page rank! I have no clue how I got it so I really have no clue how to keep it. I guess I’ll just enjoy the fact that for right now I have some page rank on this blog.
So my small home crafting business is slowly coming along. I have been busy making crafts and am almost ready to start posting pictures and advertising like crazy to try to get some sales. Although this process is a slow one, I know eventually I will be able to create a small amount of income through this venture. I don’t think I’ll ever big big enough to need any type of business intelligence software or anything like that. But… heck, you never know right, stranger things have happened. So when I get the pictures posted and uploaded onto my new website, I’ll be sure to stop by and let you all know where you can go to purchase some of “Kim’s Kreations”.
Yesterday we were hit with a major snowstorm. It started snowing pretty hard even before the children arrived home from school. I was able to get my son home without incident, but my daughter was a different story. Her bus was over an hour late and for an hour I had no clue as to where she was. So my son and I headed (walking) down the road to see if we could find her. Well I fell! Last night and today my should is aching really bad so I think I might have done something to my shoulder. I really wish I had an ipod touch 32 in my possession. That way I wouldn’t have had to head down the road. I could have called someone and not have made that walk and wouldn’t have fallen. If my shoulder is still aching tomorrow I might just have to get it checked. I just hope that I’m able to do my shift at work tonight. At this point I’m not sure.
Since I’ve had both children home from school these past couple of weeks, I have not really been able to get much accomplished. Well today they both went back to school! I am so happy. Not only do I have the entire house back to myself all day, but I think I will be able to get quite a bit of stuff done today as well. On top of my to do list is I have to find some cheap managed hosting service and then if I have time I’m going to start deep cleaning my house. I really don’t mind all the work I have ahead of me as I’m pretty sure I can get most of it done now that I’m alone for awhile.
I really have to wonder how much more of the children’s fighting I’m supposed to put up with. They have been home from school for about two weeks now and their fighting has been brutal. It’s been so bad these last couple of days that I have had a permanent headache. They do go back to school and Tuesday and let me tell you all, that I absolutely can’t wait! I only have five more days to put in and I’m really hoping that I can make it.
