Today, has been a nice peaceful day. It started off with a cool breezy morning but the heat index climbed up in the nineties by noon. I put a stew in the crock pot so I wouldn't have to stay in the kitchen plus it helped keep the temperature down in the house.

I was so glad not to have to go to the daycare. It was a stressful week; it seemed that all my babies were teething and this led to much whining and crying. They didn't want to play with any toys, they wanted to be held and snuggled. That is hard to accomplish when you have six. I have managed to hold four at one time but haven't figured out how to hold six all at the same time. So I don't sit down until some have went home. When I do sit, they immediately start climbing onto my lap. All week they were hanging onto my legs and crying, it was rough.

I enjoyed being at home today. We washed the truck and car this morning. The lovebugs are back in full force and we have to scrub them off the vehicles 'cause they have enough acid in them to eat the paint.

The rose bushes K bought for me are actually still living and blooming. It is truly amazing. There is always a rose to cut and bring inside to put in a vase. I say amazing because they are still in their pots; we haven't transplanted them in the ground yet.

When it warmed up outside, I came in and found a movie on tv and sat down to relax while crocheting. The movie and the crocheting are almost foolproof in keeping my thoughts occupied. I need to think about the future; I just don't want to right now.
