Austin and I attended the AA Winter Holiday Convention last weekend. Oh My Gosh! It was awesome! I had always heard how amazing they were but had no idea HOW amazing! The speakers were all so good and will definitely be attending more of those! I think Austin enjoyed it. He said that he did learn some things and he thanked Terry for inviting him and getting him the ticket. He worked the registration desk Friday night and I know that just getting out of his room and being with other people was so good for him. Everyone has been so good to take him under their wings and help him on this journey he is on. I am so thankful for everyone that is in his life now. He is now surrounded by people who love him, want only the best for him, encourage him, and are there for him.
I spent a little time working in the front lawn this afternoon between loads of laundry and dishes and cleaning. I keep getting piles of leaves that magically appear on the front porch and right outside of my front door! I got those all raked and swept the front porch and sidewalk. Discovered that there are a lot of leaves in the front flowerbed so think that may be contributing to my leaf situation. I got those raked out of there....or at least a little more of 1/3 of them that is closest to the front porch. Filled up a garbage bag and then had just closed it up and it started to rain so whether I was ready to quit or not.....Mother Nature decided that I was ready to quit!
Looking forward to Mom and Dad coming down Friday and celebrating Chloe's 5th birthday Saturday! I cannot believe that she will be 5 years old already! And they are registering her for kindergarten! Wow!
Ooops...I hear the clothes in the dryer wanting to be folded and put away! Have two more loads of laundry to do today. Funny how my clothes hamper can be totally empty one day and half full the next. We are either the cleanest or the dirtiest people I know!
God Bless!
