It's been another day of work for me. Then coming home to clean the house for a showing. And yet a 2nd showing still to go this evening too. But... as the kids were bored (after cleaning "ALL DAY LONG") we got out the water balloons. They popped a bucket full in 10 seconds flat. So, I decided to go to Target and get a yard sprinkler. Jarod just won't go in Meghan's "Mermaid" sprinkler, is it "Boring!". LOL Hopefully this will keep him from asking me "why can't we put up the pool" and my having to answer "Because buyers don't want to see a pool OR a dead circle in the yard." :)

One Stroke Painting and Baseball


What a whirlwind of a day. Last night we went to a little league baseball game. We watched the team our boys went to state with, last year. After a big decision to take out kids to another league and make them ineligible to play in All-stars this year. Our boys enjoyed playing ball this year. It has been great to get to relax and not have nightly practice for allstars, etc.
Tomorrow night we will go watch this team again, but they will play against the team our boys played with this year. This game will take one of the teams out of the district tournament for this year. What a game to watch. A ton of emotions. Oh, I forgot to mention for those that don't know, we left the Mt Hood league, due to major conflicts with the board. They do many things they just shouldn't do, if they had the boys and families in mind, over winning. :(
Oh well... can't heal the world.
Here is a photo of what I was up to this evening. This is my third painting with HD (High Definition) One Stroke Painting. I am enjoying it, while I practice my new talents. One of my life time goals was to learn to paint. :)

I finally decided to create a blog. Today we had a showing of the house. Keep your fingers crossed, we hear good news. Soon, we will be deciding if we will leave our house on the market, or take it off and stay in Oregon. If only the banks would finance more loans. But, what is meant to be, will happen, I know.
Meet our new kitten princess "Daisy". She is now 10 weeks.
This week begins Summer Camp at Michaels. 4 one hour sessions, each day for two weeks. Fun to teach, but alot of prep and energy too.
I think the rest of today will be a mix of painting something and maybe a scrapbook layout or two. I think I will head of and get the kiddos involved too. Thanks for droppin' in.
