Fall is in the air.......

Well at times these days, the weather seems to be leaning towards the cooler side!!! Thank God for that!! This has been a very HOT summer and the break in the weather is just what we needed to stay in the game!!The scorching heat seems to take all the energy right out of you!! Of course the grass doesn't grow very good either, so the rain here lately has been a God send. This will take Eddie's business right on onto the Fall.

School has been trucking right along as well. Caleb is loving the 4th grade and Caylee, although not liking Kindergarten at first, in loving it now!!! She has finally got in a routine and just loves Mrs. Smith.

As far as me, my business is going great. I am very busy on Tues., Thur., Fri. 8:30 - 5:30 or 6pm. Also for those of you who may have forgotten, I have officially been open for 1 year now!!! WOOO HOooo!!! =) I can't believe that my dream of owning my own business finally came true, after 13 years of being a stylist & RENTING!!!!! It feels really good to be paying money towards my own building!!! Thank you God!!! Oh and my wonderful Daddy!! He did all the work for me!!! I can't be happier!!

As far as my house goes, I'm sure that everyone follows my FB and knows that we are remodeling the restroom in our bedroom. It is almost done, oh how I can't wait!!! DUST<> let me say DUST!!!! It does look soooo much better already!! I'll have to post pics as soon as it is done!!

Eddie's business has been very good , except for the rain makes it where he can't work but keeps it going into the Fall!!! So we can't have one with out the other!!!

I guess that raps it up for now.......keep on lovin' my busy life, my Family and most of all my LORD!! =)

Hello blogger friends!!!

I know that we don't look @ Blogs anymore, but I figured that it was time to update my Blog a little!!! New pic from the Summer @ the Park, all the cousins are together and cheesin for the pic!!! Well, Summer is coming closer to an end and this means time for school to start and getting back to a new schedule. Earlier days and earlier bed times!!! Hopefully next Mon we can get our last minute school shopping done. The backpacks are all monogrammed up and the new shoes are ready, so I think we are ready for the days to begin!!

Of course this is the year Caylee starts the big K. and Caleb will be in 4th grade!!! So I will have an automatic raise......YEAH!!! This is so crazy being that I have paid daycare for the past 5 years!!!! See all you SAHM's have something to shout about, NO Daycare costs!!!! Any way I am a working Mom so that has been a must for me!!! But thank God I haven't had to work FULL, Full time!!! I can take off most of the time and be there for all the kiddos stuff!!! But hopefully I want cry too hard on that first day.....I'll get Eddie to come with me and carry me out!!! LOL

Well happy end of the Summer and more blogs soon!!!

Summer time!!!

Well I have been looking forward to this time of the year as I'm sure everybody else has too!! Kids are out of school and we are home at a more relaxed set pace. This week started off with VBS @ Bethel Baptist and swim lessons @ 2-3. I think this is soooo good for the kids to be able to visit all the churches and see all their friends. Plus swim lessons is all I hear about!! This year Caleb is well able to be swimming on his own but loves to go anyway!!! Makes me think we need to invest in a pool??

Well this is a good time to take family vacations as well, of course!!! We are taking the kids camping @ Richland Chambers. They have cabins for rent, fishing, swimming etc!!! They are really excited! We would like to take them one other place but haven't decided yet. We are trying to take some small trips, here and there b/c of gas prices & lake of time!! What ever we decide the kids will love!! Anyway. Happy Summer everyone!!

Hello Spring!!!!

Well hello everybody it has been a great while since I have logged on here on my blog and posted anything at all about my life. Let me see where should I start, my internet got messed up about a month and a half ago. So that is the first thing. It took about 6 calls to Windstream and a visit or two from them coming here to get the lines straightened out. They finally got it all worked out and now I can log into my Blog, Myspace,e-mail,and surf the web as I need to!!!! YAY!!! That was the most drag on, drag on stuff to ever try to straighten out with being busy with the kids, show animals, etc!!

Well and of course there is the county show starting today. We have meet & greet tonight from 7-9. Then Wed 7am check in the pig. Rabbits are that night. Then Thur show the pig again. Busy Busy Busy!!!

As far as my beauty shop is concerned .....I Have landscaping now...YAY!! It is beautiful!!! My wonderful hubby did a great job!!! It is amazing how that really finished things off!!

We also have redone Caleb's bedroom. He got new pant on the walls and ceiling, new fan, new bed, plantation blinds, new curtain rods & panels,and a new rug!!! YAY he is sooooo proud. He had the same room for about 4 years. He needed a spruce up!!

We have a new tankless hot water heater too it is in our laundry room. That freed up about 3 x 3 foot space extra for my scrapbook area in the laundry room!!! YAY I have been working on the scrapbook area too.I can't wait to get that done to post new pics!!! (There is a $300 Tax credit on new hot water heaters for 2009, this is a good year to do that if you need a new one, just alittle note there!!)

Let me see here what else......Oh I can't forget most of all how great not good but great God is.....During this economic time God still provides.....I haven't had very many slow times at all. I have been able to stay the same or better with my clientle here at my new shop. God is soooo good, I know that there are soo many that are loosing jobs left & right and I just thank God for providing for me!!

Okay I think that is all for now LOL!! That is all in the Life of Sherrie for the past 2 months LOL!! HAPPY SPRING!!!!

2009.................

Well the new year is finally here. I have some new resolutions that i am going to stick to this year and accomplish. One of those is losing weight. I started early on that about a month ago i joined Faith Fitness. I really like it and plan on continuing it. I have started, for a week now and have been on a liquid diet. I have been drinking for breakfast and lunch then eating sensible for supper. No sodas just plenty of water. I really think that changing my eating habits all together will make a big difference. I already feel better!! I have lost about 8lbs already!! This is even more in sight now that all that good holiday cooking is over with!! HAppy New Year!!
