3 States 1 day!

THANKS to Val I now know what I was doing wrong! Now I can SEE the pictures so I know what I am writing about!

Right now we are in a hotel in Kasas City Missouri. I am so very tired! We went through Minnesota,Iowa, and are halfway through Missouri. Tomorrow I will see one of my very best BFFs. Her son is the one I am making the bargello for. I cant wait! I need some Jimmi time.

I had to drive through Minneapolis BY MYSELF. WH had to pick up his truck (which actually is supposed to be skater boys truck someday)and I had to follow. That may seem like no big deal to some but my wonderful WH drives like a bat out of hell. I am so not kidding. I was a puddle of goo by the time we stopped.And royally ticked off......

Thank heavens we parked the truck after we got out of town and then road together. I dont do traffic. call me a wimp,chicken,or anything else you want to but I just dont do it.It took me a month to drive in Minot.A city of 45 thousand.

I did happen to get these pictures. I liked the city but am not in a hurry to drive there again. I think if we want to go to the Mall of America and WH cant go I may spring for Amtrak!

Ahem... I'm pretty sure I told you if you came through KC to let me know. I could have delivered fresh coffee to the hotel for your whole crew ms. thing. ;-) Drive safe!

I'm with you on the driving through the cities. For some reason though I am the one that usually ends up doing it. Scary!! That tunnel picture brings back memories of my daughter and driving around Minneapolis trying to get downtown and missing our turn, ending up going through that tunnel. NOT fun!! But experiences non the less. :)

I did today. Then just as I was about to scream I found this. It has ALWAYS made me laugh.I had forgotten I had it though.So today it was just like a present.Ü Oldest daughter has been confined to the house with what her doctor tells us is a very contagious viral infection. Personally I think her doctor is smoking some funny stuff. Her blood tests were normal and she has been battling bad tonsils for a month.Hmmmm. I dont think it takes rocket science when that is ALL she went in there for but evidently it does. More tests have been ordered and she is confined until monday. Can you say lets drive mom crazy? Then I found out a king size ALL feathered quilt that I mailed to a friend as a belated (like 20 years late)wedding, anniversary,housewarming(twice),congratulations on your 4 kids, yeah dont hate me because I am a horrible friend quilt NEVER showed up in the mail! I cannot find (big shocker there huh)the tracking slip. I did have it at one time in my hot little hands. So I know it w...

I bet yall thought I had forgotten to do a giveaway for my second blogaversary! I almost did I will be honest. Thankfully I remembered before the end of Feb!.....I also have some help Ü. A week or so back I got an email from Jamie who is part of the CSN promotion team asking if I would like to give away a gift to one lucky reader!!! WELL YA! I jumped on it. I had so much fun picking out a gift to give. They have some wonderful products. It took me almost a whole week to comb through their stores to find just the right gift! They have 200+ stores! I am thinking this may pose a threat to our bank account in the future, atleast once we get this house done! So grab a barstool and browse through their stores when you get a chance! So if you would like to win a set of these beautiful Certified International Bubble Amber All Purpose (Set of 4) glasses PLUS a goodie bag from me just keep reading Ü.
