OUCHIE!!!!

k last night I had an accident! And this is after a day of driving in a blizzard!! lol ok It was cold int he house so I turned on the fireplace. well some times it will blow out and it did. so I turned the gas off and let it sit a bit I couldn't smell it any more and went and turned it ona gain and lit the pilot and POOF! a big flame shot out and ingulfed me!! thank goodness It only singed my hair and burnt four fingers and the tops of my hands! It could have been so much worse! so My pinkys are burnt and both my ring fingers. My fingers are swollen and I can't get my ring off. my knuckles are blistered now. I had to have my hair cut about four inches and I got bangs too. lol all in all I am glad I am the only one who was burnt and I am glad I didn't end up in the ER!!

a quiet moment is all I ask

Don ran up to Logan tonight. I want to put the kids to bed and have some nice quiet. that's all. nothing big. just sit and watch tv without anyone bothering me or maybe read te book I keep picking up and not reading. he should get home about the time I put the kids to bed.

it's monday but is it really??

Not really kids are out of school for Martin Luther King Day.. You know I really wanted to keep up with this and here it is two weeks later!!
Well We have been talking seriously about finding a shop and starting up a business. We even started looking at shops online to rent, buy, lease whatever! Well it kind of sizzled out when we saw prices lol. Don is working hard at work and a guy that owns a shop that he buys exhaust from came in to have some work done and Don was working on it and they talked. He owns a few shops around townincluding a muffler shop (I wont' say names lol) and the contract is about up and he doesn't want to resign the guy that is int he shop right now and offered it to Don!!! can you believe it! We drove by the shop last night and it really needs some cosmetic help! paint, windows fixed. and that is just the outside. Today Don got off work early to go fix this same guys other camper or something. And I am sure they will talk some more about it!! Wow!! I need to spend some time on my knees about this one! Is this really the right thing?? The guy said he can easily make 6 figures. WOW! If something sounds too good to be true can it ever be?? I think it sounds great! Yes I know it will be some major work and sacrifice. But it really would be so great to be able to finally start something we have dreamed so long about!
ok I promise I will write again soon! I jsut needed to get this all out!
