quiet day

I got a new computer!!! Yes I was at Walmart at 4:30 on black friday!--never do that again, unless I have a crew with me. So I spent a quiet day messing with my computer. The kids were at their dad's house and I just cleaned and did the laundry while I watched Ann of Green Gables. I absolutely love that show!!! Today it was the continuing story, which is my favorite. It is a little more worldly than the earlier shows, but it makes you feel so much! It was kind of torture for me, but I just love the love story!!!!

um--this comp doesnt' have a card reader on it--lame I know. So no pics until I get a usb plug in thingy.

I'm back

What's been going on: Jess is in school and she's doing good. We get to see her once in awhile--she is having fun and working hard. Matt made the bball team and plays JV and Varsity. His first game was a very exciting game against Hunter High but we lost by one!!!! I'm still waiting for him to dunk it in a game--you can do it!!!
Brooke made the freshman bball team and is doing great--especially for not really ever playing before. In her first game, her dad told her that he would give her a dollar for every blocked shot, basket or rebound she got, by half time, she was up to 11 dollars! Also by half time she was out of the game with a sprained ankle--yes I told her she didn't need ankle braces, just high tops. We are going to get the braces by her next game! She is so funny, she said "why doesn't everyone block shots? It's so fun!"
Jack is taking a break from bball for dec. His team won the league--they were undefeated until the last game and they lost by one! He is liking school and is doing very well in art.
Porter, Heber and Eli are all doing great--we are all trying to adjust to me working. I have some wonderful friends who volunteered to help me with the boys while I work. And the boys really enjoy going to their houses! Thanks so much!
So that's what's going on, not too exciting, just busy. I have found though, that I get more done around the house when I am so busy. I really appreciate everyone who is helping me in anyway!!! I love you!
