Marketable Talents....or lack thereof

so my mom and sister are talking about starting an online buiness together with these little cute winderful craft thingies- so i was thinking that i would enjoy doing something like that. so i began to think... trying to figure out what i could do to contribute. so i thought. and thought some more. nothing came to me. i thought surely there must be something that i could do! so i talked to diana about it.... yea we came up with nothing. how sad is that. i have no marketable skills. i can arrange flowers- but not online. sad day. everything that i could think of- it wasn't internet suitable. it made me feel rather talentless. *sigh* oh well. there has got to be one in every family right? i guess i will be that one. we did decide that i like to read. that is great- but i can't make any money doing that. partly because i really only prefer to read christian things- preferably LDS. just so i don't have to worry about all the smut out there ya know? if it swears- i put it down- if it's 'naughty' - same thing. so it really limits me, but i really don't care. oh well.



so things have calmed back down for awhile- thank heavens. jerra and claysen have recovered- therefore i am much happier. it was really sad though- joseph had to leave the thursday right after we got home- he had a huge buisness trip, very important. he is so tired of having to be on the road and without his family. it feels good that he misses me :) a selfish thing to say, but true. and how would it be if i didn't feel that way?



jerra is talking so much now. it's really cute. yesterday morning and this morning she asked if they could take a bath. this morning it was: "ma- clay mess, take ba plee?" it was so cute! how could you say no to that? so they took a bath- very nice for me, i was able to get ready with limited interruptions. :)



i think that claysen has decided that he will be more of a 2-year old. he is the screaming, hitting tantrum thrower. no good. time-out hasn't really worked with him either. it is too much of a game. hmmmmm. this will be interesting. jerra hated time-out. still does. now i need to try and figure out what to do with him....



OH! my sister-in-law had her baby!!!! Rachel had little Issaac Emerson Whipple on Saturday aug 25 at 7:23 pm he was 7 pounds and 8.5 ounces. he is such a beautiful baby!




look at all his hair! crazy! anyway- i love the idea of birth. and especially right now- because i am soo happy to say that i am not pregnant and will not be anytime soon. :) i just really couldn't handle one right now.
and carpet is being installed on thursday. i am sooooooooooo stinkin excited! now that i know how to put pictures up- i will! yeah for carpet!
one of my cats brought me a HUGE dead frog this morning. yuck. sweet? yuck. *shudder* i had to clean it up. yuck again.
well- that is about it-
loves!
