4 is fun

I got tagged!  
It's true...so here we go with The Number Four.
(thanks again Bridget....i love your Lord's Beauty Blog!!!---stop by and check her out)

4 things I did today:
1. Got Starbucks from the real (drive thru)store...I pay just for the cup that makes the coffee taste better!
2. Watched DVR'd Jon and Kate Plus 8
3. Played on the floor with Little Miss...then did her therapies, that wasn't so much fun.
4. texted (surprise, surprise)

4 things on my to-do list:
1. clean (everything)
2. sew curtains for #2 and #3's room
3. catch up laundry (a never ending battle)
4. Pay school fees for #1 and #2

4 of my guiltiest pleasures:
1. coffee (i brew my own starbucks most days at home, but really love to get a venti from a barista)
2. TV...the Office, Grey's, DHW, Biggest Loser.
3. Diet Coke from a fountain (lovingly referred to in this house as a Sippy Sip.
4. Definitely blogging

4 random facts about me:
1. I mentor high school girls (15 + yrs now)...and they rock my face off!
2. I was on the state softball team for my home state in 1982 when we won the State title and went to Nationals in Florida.  It was amazing!
3. I still own my first car, a 1966 Mustang.  (that's another blog)
4. I'm very short.  I'm 4' 9 3/4"

I know that whole Starbucks addiction thing. But I love that you're short, too! I'm a bit taller at just 5 foot even.

You really are wee, aren't you?? Even smaller than my itty bitty mommie (she's 4'11 1/2, cuz you know you have to add in the fractions when you're small, right?)

People look at my belly rolls and I'm nearly half a foot taller and wonder how in the world I ever came from her!!

And all this time, I just thought your husband was 7 feet tall. " )

Four is fun! I love starbucks coffee too but Dunkin Donuts is my FAVE! My honey and I load up the kids at least a few weekend mornings a month and drive 40 minutes to the closest DD just to have a cup of coffee and a donut. Ha! Ha!

Oh and any soda is better from the fountain. And the girl's new hair styles are fantastic. All of your little ones are so darn cute!

Holy cow, you are short, girl! I have a "big" sister who is 4'11"; she is 9 years older than me, and I have been taller than her since I was 11. She hated that. And I hated feeling like a huge giant when I was with her. Oh, well.

Thanks for the sweet comments on my SITS day. I love the look of your blog (don't you love free backgrounds?) Obviously, we have great taste :)

I just turned GREEN with envy when I read about your mustang! My dream car is a restored 60-something mustang, and my first car was a 1984 'stang and I would give a LIMB to have that car still!

random acts...GNO

over at GNO, there's a few of us who decided to challenge ourselves last week to perform a random act of kindness.   i talked with my girls and hubs about what we could do... we reserve some funds each month out of our giving to put towards a current or urgent need that we find.  i think it's important to let the kids see how we give as family...and they should be part of that decision too . as we were talking, and eating chinese...come on, you know there would be eating...i open my fortune cookie.  and this is it!! i was out getting a few minutes of alone time and decided to pay hubs forward by getting jiffy lube to do the oil change.  while i was there, i remembered how hard it was being a single mom.  i remembered that the little things, like oil changes, suddenly became bigger things and honestly, more expensive things.  *light bulb!!!* thomas rang me up for my oil change and asked if they had any scheduled appointments that i could pay for.  he looked at me a little odd......

tuesday tribute---for tuesday

go blog yourself has been on my reading list for quite sometime...and so i really came to love little tuesday whitt and her whole sweet fam and became involved in praying for them in tuesday's battle with that stinky neuroblastoma . tuesday's parents are totally amazing...they inspire me! although tuesday went to play with jesus not so long ago, there have been so many people that are changed because of the courage and strength and honesty of the whitt family. on the day of celebration of tuesday's life, a number of folks who couldn't make it out to the funeral, took their kids on a 'wagie ride', which was one of tuesday's fav things. we all posted up our pics...shared our experiences with each other...and hugged our kiddos a little tighter. my kiddos wagie ride is here . from that precious little tuesday and her honorary wagie ride, a blog spawned...of course...and it is dedicated to nothing more than, in their words, "to keep track of lives touc...

one lucky chick

i have been super blessed with a man who not only loves and adores me, but thinks his daughters are all queens deserving of the most love a daddy can give.  in this family, and with other special needs families, there are days that make being fully engaged, well, let's just say difficult. poop, for instance...it's still an issue in our house.  with kids 20, 12, 10, and 7, you would think that we were well past the poop problems, but we are not.  ASD (autism spectrum disorder) is a beast when it comes to poop. and here's a little insight on me...i'm a gagger, meaning the harsh smell of poop or puke makes be puke.  but the amazing hot hubs, he's a beast on the clean up.  poop on the walls...he scrubs it.  poop pasted on the toilet...he cleans it up.  poop on the shower curtain...he washes it.  and he does it without being nasty.  (he doesn't like it...but he does it.) so, when people see our fam and think it's all amazingly perfect and cu...
