Finding some great products!

I love it when I try something new and it works!  Not that I have never tried Goof Off - just not on pottery or ceramics!  I decided to start collecting Aqua Ceramics and Pottery.  I can't afford some of the really "Collectable" brands so I am just looking for great finds in the Thrift Stores and on eBay.  I picked up a couple of pieces for a great price and they were a bit dingy, dirty and lacking the luster that I desired.  I washed them up in the sink to no avail.  Then I decided to try GOOF OFF.  Wow!  What a difference!  They look sparkly and beautiful!

I figured I had nothing to lose!  I am glad I tried it.  Little by little I will find interesting pieces in this shade and put them on a shelf in my kitchen.  It is fun to hunt for these pieces and great when you find them at a steal!

Tomorrow the Little Boys will start school.  They will ride on a bus for the first time!  They go 8:20pm to 4:20pm!  I don't know what I will do with a WHOLE day!  Amazing!  We got just a few of the supplies on the list at Walgreens tonight.  Tomorrow I will head to Wal Mart for the rest.

It is quite the list!  I take Trenton to the High School with his transcripts to see when and where he will go.


Stace started his new job at Jericho Home Improvements today.  He had a great day!  He will work hourly for the first 90 days at $15 an hour.  He will then go to piece work and work by the job.  BAD part is he will not get a paycheck for THREE weeks!  Eeeeek!  That is not till the 1st of Jan.  I am not sure what we will do to get by till then!  We will just have to pray!  God has lead us this far - He won't leave us now!!


In 2 short days Taylor will be turning 21.  I am both nervous and excited for him.  With his history I am not real happy at the thought of him being able to legally purchase alcohol.  I just pray this is not a Pandora's box.  I can't believe this day has arrived - my "baby" turning 21.  {sniffle, sniffle}  Man I am getting OLD!


I got the pleasure of cooking my first real meal in my kitchen!  Sitting down at the table to eat as a family is proving to be a joy.  Taylor jumps in each night to set the table and help me cook.  Trenton clears and loads the dishwasher with Trevan's help.  Well, as for Turner - he is usually the last one finished!  He just has no appetite.  He lost SO much weight being sick we are trying to fatten him up!  He needs a Winter layer of fat to keep warm!


Well tomorrow is a big day - starting school.  I better get to bed so I can get everyone up, fed, dressed, packed and out for the bus in the morning!
