Egg Scale

I have been looking at egg scales. I weigh all of my eggs to determine size. I have been using a regular kitchen scale to do this. An egg scale would make things go a whole lot quicker! Most of them just have the ranges of each size marked on the scale. You just have to do a quick look to see which size the egg is. It takes time to allow the egg to settle so the scale can give me its weight. The only problem is that egg scales are a bit pricey. I have no idea why but they are. I will eventually get one though!

Piano Playing

All 3 of my older kids play an instrument. Clint plays electric and acoustic guitar, Jasmine is learning guitar and has played the piano and saxophone in the past and Karly plays clarinet. They are all talented and I love that they play something. Tom took piano as a kid and hated it. I started on the saxophone as a kid and hated it. I know that playing an instrument is really good for kids so I am glad mine play.

Someday I hope to learn to play piano. I have always wanted to. This beginner piano course seems pretty straight forward and something I can do on my own. I already have an electric keyboard so my only cost would be the course. And really compared to piano lessons these courses are pretty inexpensive. I am definitely putting learning to play the piano on my someday list.

Headway

I finally was able to get some junk out of my house. A friend and I had a garage sale a few weeks ago. I wasn't able to get as much stuff drug out and priced as I would have liked. However, I did get rid of some things that have been hanging around here for years. On top of that, I also made $90. My goal was $100. I don't think that I did so bad considering how quickly I threw things together. I would really like to get some things to our local thrift store. I am ready to get my house decluttered!

Stress

Wow. Who needs the most effective fat burners when you have stress! We are going forward with this addition to the house. Well, as long as our appraisal comes out to where it needs to be. I have had so much stress over this whole thing! Stress over the cost, where the money was coming from, having a second payment, passing the credit check. And now passing the appraisal. Once that is done I can go on to stressing about cleaning out the rooms that will be removed. And then I can stress about not having a full bathroom or laundry for a while. This whole thing while very necessary is also very stress filled for me. I know it will be good in the end its just the getting there that gets me!

Sad

Yesterday in bible study something was said that really hit home. When a parent dies you really find out how close of a family you really are. I think that it is the ultimate funeral costs. It really summed up what I discovered when my Dad died. My family, as in my siblings, are not close at all. Actually it is really divided between the boys and the girls. I really don't know how or if I can fix that. I just know that it makes me incredibly sad to know that I have a niece and a nephew that really have no idea who I am. And I find it sad that I never know what is going on with my brothers. I guess the only way to fix it is to pray about what to do.
