I am happy that tomorrow is Thursday. Wednesdays are not my favorite lately! Once school is out, I'll be switching to an evening shift so the kids will not be stuck there with me all day. I am only sad that I will be missing more of my turbo kick class, but I should be able to start that again in the fall. There are other classes to choose from, but that was always one of my favorites.

I finally called someone to come look at our roof and see if we have a hail claim from the freak storm last summer. Many people have gotten new roofs out of it, so I figured it was worth a shot. Maybe they can fix the gutters at the same time! Then we can look into re-doing the back porch. I am hoping to make the deck part smaller and have a lower patio area. Something we will eventually have to do is new siding, but I think the roof and porch are going to come first. I have a big list of interior improvements to work on, also. We tend to let things go, but I would like things to look decent in case the housing market improves and we have a chance to possibly move. I love this neighborhood, but it would be nice to be away from the busy street and our crazy neighbor. It probably won't happen, but I always have it in the back of mind as a remote possibility. If not, we should at least have things looking decent!

Well, I'm pretty late to the party, but I signed up with Twitter last night. lol It seems like a good way to get info for scrapbook stuff.




I made these pages with kits by Julie. It is. Spring Rain comes out today, and Colorado Nature is an older kit that I thought would be perfect for the Leadville camping photos.

I got a chance to work with an upcoming release called Neutrality by Digital Design by Athena. I love working with earth tones, and it seemed perfect for these photos!

I got my first email from Owen today:

Dear mom,
You are the best mom ever!I love you.
Sincerely,
Owen

He is using my old laptop now, much to his excitement. Too bad Scot put Linux on there, so if something goes wrong, I can't be much help! He has been playing a lot of Webkinz. I have an account so we can play tournament games.

I made this Well Worn and Wordlets Word Art by Julie. It is.

The kids are at soccer this morning. They really seem to be enjoying it, and Owen might get to play in a tournament at the end of May. He's never played against other teams, so it will give him a taste of what's coming up for his age group next time, and see if he really wants to stick with soccer when it starts getting more competitive. Owen also suddenly has 4 field trips between now and the end of the year! He has been complaining all year that they haven't gone on any, so he is happy. I am chaperoning the one to the School of Mines, but not sure if I'll sign up for any of the others. A lot are on Fridays, when I'm on call for work. Declan has one more coming up on the day before the last day of school, to the Musseum of Nature and Science.
