Just when I thought ALL of my pictures were sorted, I found another box, oh not a small box oh GOD no, a nice size rubber made container. SHIT! Now I have to go through all of my albums again once I sort through these pictures. URGH!!! I will never get done.
I took my kids to get gym shoes for school, they need a pair that stays at school for when they have PE. My daughter L had mentioned (once I had already bought the shoes) that she doesn’t know how to tie them. Can you believe that we had gotten so used to buying the kids shoes with velcro that it didn’t dawn on me that I had yet to teach my girls how to tie shoes. So here I go back to the store to buy velcro gym shoes for gym, all the while keeping the tie ones for home, those they can use when they go out to play. So I started almost immediately showing them how to tie shoe strings. R always get frustrated if she doesn’t pick up quickly so I have to spend more time with her. L caught on after about two hours of trying and trying. She is the one who is more determined to learn and learn fast. But as I was at Payless Shoe Store they had one of their sales, buy one and get one half price. Excellent! Just what I needed, thank you GOD. So I get the girls their shoes, go around to the boys section to pick up a pair for the boy, well not much of a selection for him so I looked for my foster son and found a pair for him, so now I said to myself, “gee all I need is to find another pair of shoes to get them half price. So I go to see what they have in my size, not that I need another pair of shoes but I figured what the heck, doesn’t hurt to look. Well those of you who know me know that I love stilettos shoes. I was in fact looking for gym shoes, no such luck. However………… I found a pair of black stiletto boots! One pair in my size, black and with my high heel, best part…….. they were already on sale from $44.99 to $9.00, which means I paid $4.50. $4.50!!!!!!!!! I have never seen such a great sale like this at Payless! I tell the boy who was just as excited as I was (which was cute) he kept saying “you gotta buy them mom, you gotta buy them”. Once again I don’t need them, I have three pair at home, but of course not this style 
So yes I bought them and I am sooooooo excited. This is my type of shopping, now if I can only find sales like this for kids clothing.
Since I am not working I figured that the King and I wouldn’t give each other birthday gifts, but in the beginning of July I had mentioned to the King that there was something I really really wanted and he said “hey you have no job remember?” “oh yeah” was my reply 
So the day or two after the Kings birthday he makes a comment about me not buying him anything for his birthday, I reminded him that he didn’t buy me anything either so what was he huffing about. He then tells me that he did indeed buy me something and that it was on back order, I thought (yeah right, but I didn’t care I have him and the kids what more can a girl want). Well two weeks after the Kings birthday he tells me that he got an e-mail stating that my gift was still on back order and that it would be another 10 days before it was to be shipped to me, he then proceeds to tell me what he got me, I had a feeling in the beginning but I wasn’t going to get my hopes up to high. Well yesterday my gift arrived!!!!!!!!! I couldn’t open up the package fast enough, I am sure that I looked like a little kid on Christmas and I have been wearing it ever since. It is an official CUBS jersey with my man #5-Cedeno !!!! YAHOO!!!
Thank you sweetheart for my jersey, I love it, but not as much as I love you
Since I have been unemployed I decided to finish what I had started years and years ago. Putting all of my pictures in photo albums. I have hundreds of pictures that I have stored in a wicker basket, which kept accumulating every time I developed a roll of film. The big one is 17 and I still have not put her pictures in albums! Oh sure the baby pictures from birth till about 9 months are in albums, have been since she was a baby but back then I didn’t have such a busy schedule. So far I have completed 3 photo albums, updated four albums and have four more albums to start. I had the big one years ago put the photos in date order which at times was frustrating because a lot of the photos have no dates. My goal is to finish all of the photo albums by the end of the year, that is if I am still unemployed. My next goal is to get my hands on my mothers boxes of photos, she has at least four times more pictures than I do, it will probably take a lifetime to go through all of those pictures though, lol.
