The weekend....

Last night was such a quiet night! Both girls spent the night at friends houses so John and I got to have a quiet evening at home. Of course, we both fell asleep in different parts of the house....lol. But that is okay. We needed the sleep.

Finally the FCAT's are over for both of the girls. Betsy said she did great, and wee one is relieved they are done. She told me on the first day that they were pretty easy but, "I was the third to last person done. But that is good Mom because I went back and checked everything!" LOL....what a nut.

My husband and mom are flying out in the morning for Indiana. He is going with her to meet with the funeral director, pastor etc. and the girls and I will fly out on Tuesday morning with my uncle and his wife and my grandmother. We are staying with my mil, and mom got a hotel for the week. She said that she wanted time to be alone, which I totally understand. She is going to have my aunt (her sister) stay with her a few nights, as well as my sisters. Everything will be on Wednesday, which is the warmest day of the week up there....a balmy 40! LOL.

I just took down a plastic bin full of Betsy's old clothes to see if I could find sweaters for wee one. She has outgrown the ones in her closet, and all of the stores here have bathingsuits, shorts and capri pants! I've been scouring the clearance racks in hopes of finding some sweaters! LOL. We also have to pack winter coats, mittens, scarves....as the temps will be in the low 30's the rest of the week....along with snow. I hope my suitcase will hold it all.

I still have to write what I want to say at my dad's funeral. I have been putting it off because I don't know what to say. I could say a million different things....I just have to choose which ones. I have a song picked out that I want to have played. It's called "Untitled Hymn" by Chris Rice. It is so perfect....if you have access to a music download site, it's worth the time to listen....although I knowif I have them play it, there will not be a dry eye in the place. But it is so perfect. I don't know.

Percy is set up in his doggy motel for the week. Man, that dog lives in STYLE. I wish I got that kind of treatment! LOL. I hope it is warm enough for him to enjoy the built in pool....knowin him though, he will be so sad that we are gone he will just sit there and do nothing....lol.

Well, I probably should get going here. I have to do laundry, pack, give dh a haircut, go pick up prescriptions and other sundries, and it is my mil's birthday on Sunday so I have to go get a gift for John to take with him. Oh, and we are going to church tonight as well. Jeez. But it's nice to have something to do.

Okay, I'm outta here for today....have a good one!
