mindless chatter of a sahm

i may be loosing my mind.
baby has been teething, that's always fun
it's her molar. the third one, so it's been a fun few weeks

my parents are in town, have been for two weeks.
they are packing up all their stuff, selling the rest.
let me back up. i live in their home, with my three girls
they live in new york. have been for almost a year.
well, they are moving permanently and leasing their house
the one i live in with my three girls.

now that the baby is older, i feel comfortable getting a job.
now that i am homeless i need a job
daycare costs will be about 500 a month
i can't find a job

my camera is crap
well, it's 2 years old
so it's time for a new one regardless,
too bad i don't have a job, therefore no mula to buy a camera

yesterday was a sad day
a day i want to forget
i tried, but failed
. . . one day . . .

i started knitting
i finished a scarf for my 15 month old nephew
♥ i hope it will keep him warm ♥

i am going to start ghostwriting for a blog
out of the box sampler
should be fun, come check it out, follow, comment
i'm looking forward to the experience

well, i need to clean the kitchen while the baby sleeps
i maybe have 15 minutes left of this nap, sigh
thanks for listening...

Found my answer!

baby's trying to get sick and has been sleeping in my arms all day :( so i have been surfing

it's called 'section 103'
cpsia faqs here

is tagging that important?

i have about 15 dresses made. i have my etsy shop up and running with the key chain fobs / wristlets, whatever you'd like to call them. wondering if i need to label my dresses!! with a name label or material label. is it important to the consumer? is it important to uncle sam? i've read a little about codes and such, and wondering if i need to tag them or can i put the information in the description or add a card in with each purchase?

sigh, i hope it is a simple answer. please be a simple answer!!

listless

this is me.
dormant.
motionless.
drifting about as the world turns around me.
so many things happening.
things i cannot control.
just sitting back waiting for the waters to settle,
so i can reevaluate goals, dreams.
trying to become the mother i dreamed i would be.
the mother i want to be.
praying for my little ones.
praying that they are doing more than thriving through this time in our life.
knowing that God promises it will be okay.
that His hand is not short.

school starts back tomorrow

oh how sweet it will be to get back on a schedule!! i crave structure. without it, i can't think straight. oh and this year is going to be a great year. i can see it now. ahhh, but today is the first, and last day, of winter break that i actually have my big girls home with me. so i will say goodbye for now, and until tomorrow.
