so, i have a class that the teacher wanted to take a field trip to logan for. i told her that i had a problem with any field trip that took me out side of the state. actually, i should have said outside of class time, but the concept is the same. i have a 4 month old that i can't leave home for more than 2 hours at a time. so, she went and talked with someone and they told her that if everyone agrees that it's okay for me to take her, i can bring her with us. so, looks like i'm taking a field trip on thursday with my 4 month old to logan.
the only real problem is that she doesn't travel well, and neither do i anymore. it's easy to fix my problem, i have some dramamine. however, there's nothing i can do for shannon. i just have to do deal with it. this could be fun! NOT!
Our house feels like a zoo most days. 5 kids, ages 15, 13, 10, 8, and 7. Mom is a seamstress, and life is always crazy!

midterm projects
http://www.lib.byui.edu/exhibits/2009Patterns/2009PatternsHome.html
ok, this is a link of the display they put up in the library with our midterm projects. this is the flat pattern class that i am taking. the dress i did is an original design by my little sister brianne. i took her design and turned it in to reality. and, of course, she gets the outfit when the display comes down.

nuts, i don't want to move again
ok, more bees, and we still haven't seen the landlord yet. this is really frustrating.
so, we've been looking at places to move to, because the landlords aren't taking care of repairs. first of all, i had to completely clean the house when we moved in. the previous tenents didn't clean it, and the landlords never made it over. the front porch was full of garbage which they were going to put out and never did. then i find out that the garbage only came every other week, so we took a load up to jacquelyns place over the christmas break, cause no one was there, and they wouldn't notice. the toilet seat was broken when we moved in, and hasn't been fixed yet. the bathroom light started sparking and crackling over christmas, and he came and looked at it, but hasn't been back to fix it yet. the house isn't grounded, and the power has issues, they haven't come to get that taken care of either. and then there's the bees. that should have brought them over immediately, but we have yet to see them. bees are a safety issue, especially since shaun in terrified of them, and his mother is allergic. between those two he would have a serious reaction to them.
beware the ides of march!!

awol sitter
So, Shaun stopped working at WalMart last week. He's now working from home. It makes it kind of hard on the kids. They want to go in and talk to dad, but he keeps kicking them out.
Now my sitter is going awol. I hadn't told her that Shaun was quitting, because i knew what her response would be. Shaun told her yesterday, & now she doesn't want to watch the kids anymore. She thinks that because he's home, he should be keeping the kids. He's still working. She wanted me to talk to shaun about it. I did, already knowing what the answer would be. So, with 5 weeks left in the semester, i have to find another sitter that is willing to trade or take food as payment. Don't know how i'm going to find someone. Guess i should look on the bulletin board to see what's there.
