It has been a very busy day. I have been at the Potters working which is normal but today was different Mike was sick he has a temp of around 102.0 so he was in bed all day sleeping which meant that I had to keep the kids quite which is not a easy task especially to keep Micah quite. So I sent Marah and Micah outside for a while. Then they came in and were playing cards and I made them promise me that they would pick them all up.

Well here is what Micah said after they were done playing with them.

"God can you please come down here and help me pick these up or I will spank you."

Now you see he was very upset because he had just about finished picking up all the cards when they fell out of his hands and back on to the floor. He really wanted God to come and help him so he had to act like a adult and put a consequence so it like a adult does when they ask a kids to do something.

Well it is time to say good bye to living with my Aunt. I loved living with my Aunt and three Cousins, but it is time for me to move on. Now I will be living with two friends of mine Hillary and Angela. We are moving into my parent’s duplex. I will now be living on Ash Street in Mason. It will be so nice to have my own Bedroom and two have two full bathrooms. We are still getting the place "Living Ready." The people who rented it from my parents before were terrible tenants, the carpet is terrible and we can’t get it replaced till the beginning of summer which I guess is not to long. The water from cleaned the walls was dark brown due to the fact that they were smokers. So not only are the walls gross but, the carpet is really gross as well they had a Great Dane (but they told my parents they didn’t have and pets.) They had very nasty wall paper up in the kitchen which had to come down. There is also a border of wall paper in both bathrooms the still needs to come down. There was only one wall in the living room that had wallpaper and a wall downstairs that had wall paper. I am so sick up taking down wall paper.

All the walls need to be fixed buy taking out screws and nails (I have no idea why one place would need so many screws and nails in walls to hold up pictures) and then we need to spackle the holes up and spackle all the other random weird holes in all the walls. Then paint, the living room is two different colors of green. Each of us will be painting our bedrooms a different color. We need a fresh coat of white paint in the Kitchen and down stairs. The last thing to paint will be the bathrooms we haven’t decided what color to paint in there yet. So if anyone wants to help me paint. Or just clean the place or help me move let me know I could really use the help. I hopefully will have everything done and be able to move in the end of January beginning of February.

We are also on the hunt for a dryer someone already gave me a free washer so all we need is a dryer. We can do with out one for a while though we can hang stuff up to dry. We are also looking for a couch if you know anything let me know.

Well the madness has started, the break is over and work had begun and soon school will start too. I wish that I I had like three months off but I guess that is what the summer is for I feel like I need to sleep for like two weeks straight.

Ignite was awesome, I don't think that it could have been any better, God was really speaking right to my heart. I pretty sure that I am going to LT again this summer, I just need to pray about it for a while longer and hope that a few more things get worked out. Even though I am scared to death to go for a third time I really feel like it is what God wants me to do. Today is a busy day I am working, spending time with Ashley and then going to look at bridesmaid dresses with Nicole, Melissa and Devon,
