Five for Friday

1. I am pretending like August 16th doesn't exist this year.  If it did, that would be the day that Katie would move to Ball State.  I guess I should just be thankful that it's off the calendar for 2011! 

2.  Lee and I are going to have a garage sale at the end of August.  I am going to start tonight, trying to touch everything in my house and decide if I really NEED it.  I hope I have the energy to get through everything like I am planning.  SO, mark your calendars for August 26 & 27....because you know you need my stuff!

3. I have had a really bad attitude lately about money.  Mike and I have been working so hard to pay off all of our debts and it seems like every now and again we get surprises (that only happens to us, right...hahahah!) and we don't get to move forward on debt reduction as fast as I would like.  Mike does a nice job of leading me to be thankful for what we do have; which is SO much and just what we need.  I guess I need a little attitude adjustment!

4. I bought the Jaycee Dugard book last night...uh, that fact probably isn't going to be good for the whole touch-everything-in-my-house garage sale prep tonight.

5. Happy Birthday, Mary!
