Prayers please?
We learned today that our renters will be moving out next month.
This is our chance to try to unload the other house again.
We'd really appreciate your prayers. If I'm being honest, we'll need to sell it in the next 8 weeks before it affects the house payment. A realtor has been contacted and we just really need it to sell this time.
Please and thanks for praying and I'll keep you updated.

Friday Recipe and so much humor you'll split your pants
So I feel like it's been forever since I've wrote a normal Friday post. Not much going on here. HA, Gotcha! That's funny, not much going on... whatever!
I'm slowly adjusting to our new schedule. Learning to love my time alone in the car, sitting in the pick up line 30 minutes before school lets out playing Press Your Luck on my phone. And my bladder is better with the new schedule too. Phew, let me tell you those were scary times!
But what I love most? Reconnecting with Peanut. Her and I haven't always seen eye to eye. Even as a little kid she would argue up and down with me and she always seemed closer to Superman. I would not trade our time in the car together for anything in the world. I love hearing her talk about her friends, classes, teachers, Chinese... actually she doesn't shut up and I'm not gonna make her! There might come a time in a few years where she doesn't want to talk to me so I'll take all I can get.
I'm taking Princess to the Take Care Clinic this morning. I kept her home yesterday too. She's had a terrible sore throat. She didn't have a fever yesterday morning but I knew they'd send her home if they heard her talk, or try to talk. She gets strep throat every single year. She started running a low fever later on. We're gonna nip it in the bud so it doesn't ruin her whole weekend. She's so snotty this time though that I would almost bet money it's something like an upper respiratory infection. Guess we'll see, I just want her feeling better. It's too early in the school year to miss too much!
This is the Bacon Cheeseburger Roll-Up from Kraft.
What you need:
1 lb lean ground beef
4 slices OSCAR MAYER bacon,chopped
1 small Onion, chopped
1/2 lb. (8 oz.) VELVEETA Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 pkg. (13.8 oz.) refrigerated pizza crust
Brown ground beef with bacon and onions in large skillet on medium-high heat; drain. Return meat mixture to skillet. Add VELVEETA; cook 5 min. or until melted, stirring frequently. Cool 10 min.
Unroll dough onto baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Press into 15x8-inch rectangle; top with meat mixture. Roll up, starting at one long side. Rearrange if necessary so roll is seam-side down.
Bake 20 to 25 min. or until golden brown.
6 servings, 420 calories.
Superman seems to be pretty easy to please (unless it's chicken more than twice a week)! But the rest of us? We didn't like this. In fact, I rated it on Kraft as "just plain gross." But, you know, try it if you want!
I'll be honest. I'm just too busy to blog as much lately. And I'm not sure what to do about Saturday Cell Phone Mosaic. I enjoy it, I think it's a fun post to show your day in a collage of pics. It's not like it has a huge following, but I don't just want to hang it out to dry, ya know? So starting now, right this second, I've decided to take applications for the next regular host of SCPM. I would love to still participate, but also not feel bad if I just don't feel like doing it some Saturday. And I'm not ready for it to die, I still envision it catching on big some day but not here.
So if you would like to become the official owner of SCPM, please leave me a detailed comment with your full name, address, phone number, SSN, 2 easy payments of $39.95 and name of your BFF's 2nd cousin's boyfriend's aunt's mom's bra size.
I'm kidding. Just let me know if you're interested. And possibly still the bra size, cuz it sounds like fun. And the money.
Happy weekend Ganstas!

My question of the moment
Why can't all clothing brands make their sizes all the same?
Blogging is about being real, right? So I'm gonna throw some numbers out there and not be embarrassed about it at all. Actually, I'm gonna be proud.
I'm down 15.5 lbs now. I bought a pair of shorts early spring before I really started trying - size 12.
Early July I wanted to try a size 11, the 12's were slipping pretty good. Instead I found a pair I really liked and that fit - size 13.
What's the deal? Wouldn't it be nice if all stores made sizes all the same? Why are my 13's smaller than my 12's?
I found a pair of 9/10 capris in my closet today that fit (!!) but I'll probably wear my 12/13 shorts until fall now.
Even if I did almost lose them in the street tonight running with the kids.
