Not much going on here in Kentucky, but trust me, I welcome the mundane. When Adam is home, it's so nice when things are boring and uneventful. It gives me the chance to revel in the wonderfulness that is having him here everyday. When he's gone, the silence of his absence is deafening and daily life is depressing. I do cherish every minute I have with my children and love all the blessings they bring to my life, but when Daddy is gone, life is hard.



This weekend doesn't seem too busy, either. Tomorrow is half off day at my local Goodwill, so I'm getting up early to head down there. And it is a MAD HOUSE on half off Saturday. Oh my goodness is it crazy. First of all, Clarksville, TN is a pretty big city, in my little world anyway. The population is 120,000+ and there are two Goodwill's...one just below North Clarksville and one waaaay down in southern Clarksville. I've never been to the southern Goodwill as it's easily 1/2 hour away. So the Goodwill I go to gets so busy on half off day that the line to each register goes all the way down clothing racks. So I have to get in the line that has the clothes that I want to look at, but it doesn't bother me as it's the few moments I get to myself. And I LOVE getting to scour the place for a bargain.



Adam has to fix his car. He's had a few problems with it for the last few weeks so he's been working on getting all that repaired. I'm so grateful that he's a good mechanic, and what he can't repair, his friends (mechanics in the Army) are usually pretty helpful with fixing. It's such a blessing to not have to pay repair costs at a garage. So he'll be busy with that allllll day tomorrow as it's a pretty big job to fix this latest thing.



Sunday we'll be at church. Then I think we'll be going through the house making a list of allllll the things that need repaired or replaced. We might be selling the house in a few months. Or we might not. It's hard to say. I'm praying a lot this week that God gives us some guidance on the best decision to make. I'm thinking we're going to have to decide this in about a week or so and I want to be sure that we're making the right decision. ........... anyway........

I've got to clean up the kitchen and head to bed. Adam and I are going to a military ball at the end of this month and I have been searching for a formal dress to wear. In the interest of saving money, and to be sure that I'm not wearing the same dress as anyone else, I'm thinking of giving a dress I already own a little makeover. So I'll be checking at Goodwill tomorrow for anything that might be able to help me along! :)
