thanksgiving day was a very busy day for everyone. we spent the whole day basically on the road or out at someones house. first i took the kids to my mothers for thanksgiving "lunch" then i dropped off my daughter at her dads, and came back home to pick up my "husband" then brough him to his dads house for us to have dinner. then he got the idea that he also wanted to go to his sisters house to also see his brother. so we had to go and do that too. so basically i had to travel an hour back and forth to my mothers, then a half hour to his dads, another half hour to his sisters, then about 45 minutes back to our house finally. so i was exhausted from all of this. for christmas i am definetly going to be doing everything at home, and everyone is invited, and whoever doesnt want to come doesnt have to, that is fine, i am not driving all around the county like i did this year. my son has been feeling a lot better this weekend, but unfortunately my daughter is still sick, and has still not been feeling well, with no appetite, coughing sneezing, immediately after you give her the medicine, she starts screaming that she wants to throw it up, and running for the bathroom. so it has been an interesting weekend with that. i did a ton of shopping on friday especially got an outfit with an extra top for myself, a lot of toys for the kids, and also a digital camera with a memory card. which is basically for me because it is like a new toy for me, but of course i will be taking pictures mostly of the kids. yesterday i did some shopping too, with my main focus being the kmart sales that they had on kids toys, and i got a ton of things there. the main problem with all this shopping that i have been doing is that i dont really have the money for it, and it is therefore coming out of the small amount that i have left in my savings, which has gone from the thousands that it started off in the beginning of this year to the hundreds. so that is bad. but what can i do? today i really took it easy with the kids, didnt wake up until 9am due to being out late (not that late really though) until 12:30am, and i only went to one store really quick (didnt even buy anything) then i went to publix to do the grocery shopping. that was about it so far for today. i am going to post about what happened last night with my date that was rescheduled with the guy, because trust me i need to dedicate a whole new post to that. here are some pictures from this weekend with the kids:
most of these were taken with the new digital camera that i bought, which was very inexpensive so i didnt know how well that it would work. but i would say that overall it wasnt that bad. i just have to learn when to use the flash and when to not use the flash.
