Swapping.....

So I've joined a new website.... it's www.swap-bot.com. It's great! And I must than Jessica for turning me on to it. You get to sign up to swap with a group of people for different things. And if doesn't matter what it is, there are tons to choose from! I am signed up to do an unbirthday swap where we send one another a few things that we like and wrap them up like its your birthday! I'm signed up for a tea bag swap. We are swapping three different kinds of tea, two bags each. And another is an embellishments swap. I will get together a bunch of things that you would use to put on cards or scrapbooking and send those to some one and get something like that back! It's just an awesome idea. I like these kinds of things. I will be getting something other than bills or junk mail in the mail. I will be crafting stuff on a regular basis if I so desire. And you can sign up for up to 5 at a time. I signed up for 5. Of course I did! What was I thinking?! But it should be a lot of fun. Plus I met a really neat girl who shares a lot of the same interests as me so we decided to do a personal one on one swap. It promises to be a lot of fun! I can't wait for that one b/c she seems like a cool chick. So anyways, thats my fun for the day.

On to more of the norm... Ricky was back today. I will be watching this little boy until the first week of November and then he and his family are moving back to NC. His dad was called back to active duty and he will be shipping out in March I believe. So they have to move back there for him to report back to work in the military. They are very upset about this as I'm sure anyone would be. He should be gone 9 months. After that they want to come back to Richmond again. So until then Ricky is with me part time. After that I will have my days to myself again which will be weird since I'm so used to having him here now. Ah well, I will get used to it.

Anyway, today Alanna was all over the map with Ricky. She pushed him down which I still don't know if it was an accident or not. And then Ricky "fell" off the couch. We still don't know if he was pushed or if he fell for real. However he got a scrape on his head. I felt bad since they usually play so nicely together. Hopefully they will be nicer together tomorrow!

Rhiannon broke her glasses and has no others to wear. I made an appt for us both to see the eye Dr. in early Nov. but until then she looks a little funny with no glasses. Not only that but she is constantly rubbing her eyes and squinting. This kid says she can see just fine without her glasses but does stuff like that without thinking about it. Odd huh? I know she can't see as well b/c otherwise she wouldn't need them. Try telling her that though. No reason to fight about it though.

Connor has been doing pretty good on his new medication. So far I haven't seen any weird or out of the ordinary behavior. He has finished his early bird work and gotten good reports from school all week. YAY for him! I hope it continues.

Tommy is out of town again until Friday. This shit is getting real old real fast. He's been out of town for six weeks straight and the single parent stuff isn't fun. He says he understands but I think if I left him alone with 3 kids for a week(not six) he'd be dying to get out. This weekend he and Connor are going to the campout for the boy scouts so he won't be around this weekend either. I will see him Friday night and that's it. Maybe part of Sunday too! I'm tired.... really tired. I need help, I need a break. When does that happen? Anyone want to come over and watch the kids for a few hours? *weak grin*

Well, my stomach hurts so I'm heading to get into PJ's I think. Night night to all!
