Speaking

Although I had a rough morning, I think that God was speaking to me. He told me that I needed to look at a bible study that I had done before about temptation. After doing this study with my sister, I can feel that God is teaching me a lesson about how Satan tempts us. I am so feeling better now.... I did talk to my mom tonight also, that has helped. I have talked her into helping me with making some decisions on some of the stuff I want to do with the house. She will also be letting me get the stuff that she was going to be using to remodel one of the bathrooms in this house so that I can do that soon. I can't wait to have some progress done on this place. I guess that I am making a list that will serve as my goals. As I get them done, I will mark them off and I will do before and after pics for everyone. I also will be changing the color of the shingles on the roof from black to brown. They are all the same price only the brown add curbside appeal. That helps with the sale of the house. So in the future when I want to sell, it will be nicer looking to have that done. I am also hoping to make the garage one of the first things that get remodeled. It won't take but a couple of days to fix what is wrong in there. Basically all I need is a little more drywall and some primer and paint. It will be nice to have that done. I don't think it will take much to fix the things that I want to do, but the end result will be nice. And then so will the sale of the house. I want to treat this like a flip but take longer to flip it than most people would. I want to flip it within 5 years, most want to flip in 12 weeks. I think this way, I could make more profit. I mean look, the sewers will be commin in and no one will want to buy right before they come to the neighborhood, but after, property value will go up, so increases my profit.
The girls have been kids today. Kenzie wanted to play with Maddie, but Maddie didn't want to play, so she bit her sister! Kenzie cried, I looked at it and within seconds, she had bruised and I could see where Maddie had penetrated her sister's skin. Not a good thing. Other than that not much going on here. Ryan and I are looking forward to working on the house some, so that is about it.
Love,
Dawn

Kenzie's day at school

Kenzie got off of the bus screaming, "Mom it snowed!" It was so cute. Then when I got into her backpack, I found her daily sheet with this on it... Kenzie had wrote her name (not perfect but she tried) and a note from the teacher above it saying "INDEPENDENT WRITING-- ONLY VERBAL PROMPTS!" I am so excited for her! We are definately getting somewhere. Then under the teacher comments part, I find... "SHE CAME IN TELLING ME IT WAS SNOWING-- SUPER EXCITED!" I too saw this when she got home! Construction Zone Newsletter Week 2 Dear Family, This week Kenzie will learn about solving problems.

And WINTER is here!

I look out the window to see.... A BLANKET OF SNOW! It is covering my driveway, walkway, yard.... and we are expecting more this week! I think it is safe to say that winter has finally decided to come! Don't get me wrong, snow is pretty, but I don't like it because that means I have to drive in dangerous conditions! I would much rather be driving in tropical storm force winds and rain (I have done this! When all the hurricanes were going through Florida a couple of years ago!). Now on to other things... Saturday: I had a really busy day. I was at work and didn't think it would ever end. Admissions and falls and sending people to the hospital... stabalizing others and stuff that goes on in the health care centers all the time. Sunday: Zach forgot to add me back into the schedule, so I got off at 2pm. Rode home with Maxx since he lives in Jeffersonville and Ryan and the girls were going to be at his house anyway. When we got there we watched a little of the game an...
