I know I have my other website for this, but I just wanted to announce that I only have 2 more weeks before the baby is due. Hoepfully, he will be on time. I'm starting to really want him out!! Not that I haven't enjoyed his time in my stomach, I just think it's time for a normal tummy again. hehe

I've been downing water like crazy! Which means I've been running to the bathroom every 5 minutes. But lately water has never tasted so sweet. I just wish it wasn't so expensive! I pay about 5 dollars for 24 bottles of water. Sure, it doesn't seem like a lot. But take into consideration that I normally drink between 5-7 bottles daily. And Nick will drink a couple a day. So, it seems like I am buying water ALL the time! So, yes, it gets expensive. Why not drink tap water? Well, let me tell you something. Our tap water has all kinds of nasty things in it. The water company has it printed out on the bill for my mom to see just what is in the town's water. Nasty, huh? Makes you not even want to COOK with it!!!

Wow, I just posted about water. How interesting am I?

I know Christmas is still some time away, but this is the best time to start your shopping. I know my mom is already starting to buy Christmas gifts. It's a really good idea if you have a big family. The sooner you start, the better off you are. I think it even saves you some money in the long run. I mean, prices go so high right before Christmas. It's ridiculous! Something I really want to get Nick for Christmas is some weight equipment. I know he would really enjoy that. But, I still need some saving to do to get him the right one.

So, does anyone else have any plans for the holidays? When do you start your shopping?

Today must be a cleaning type of day. Everyone woke up and just started cleaning! Except for me. I cleaned the other day. Nick got up and felt like sweeping the stairs. It was odd, but I wasn't going to stop him! I don't think any minds when someone offers to clean something. It makes things a lot easier. My sister is cleaning her room right now. It's looking really good. She should be very proud of herself.

Now, if only the little ones could clean up their mess in the great room. That would be swell.

Last night was rather chilly. I actually got under the blankets for a change. I like nights like that. I wish the days would stay cool too. I think I have a couple more months of heat though. I guess it won't be that bad. As long as I sit by a fan.

Tomorrow Nick and I have a busy day. We have to go to Hartford to take care of some stuff. We have to get up early. Well, it won't be early for me. It'll be early for Nick. Considering he stays in bed for so long. It's 10 right now and he is still sleeping. He probably won't wake up for another hour or so. He is such a bum.

Last night there was a crazy thunderstorm! It kept me up until 4 in the morning. The thunder was so loud and big, it was shaking the house! I was scared, I'll admit it.

Anyway, Nickapoo doesn't want any presents for christmas. So we made a contract and had it signed. He's all upset now because he wants presents!!! He is only 8 years old. It's so cute how he tries to act like a little adult. The things he says just makes me laugh even though he is trying to be serious. Gotta love him.
