Wow, what a blessing to be able to do what you do for people. Distributing food for the needy, a great feeling I am sure! And, you scored the restackable plastic totes, ANOTHER score! I hope you were able to rest well....
Jamie...been there done that, what a chore!! You poor thing...However, think of how you will be able to stand back( or sit, LOL ) when its all done, and say...look what WE did!!! That is harder work than I want to do. LOL

We're doing great! Yesterday and today I've felt the best so far since Squeakers arrived. Just trying to enjoy this beautiful fall weather while it lasts! Might try to talk Dh into a short walk this evening with kiddos down at the walking trail!

I am tiiiiiiired. I did good today on shopping though I spent $105 but my coupon savings was $87! So I saved 45% for every item I purchased 
And I am NOT going shopping again for a verrry long time now! I got stocked on tissue, soap, shampoo, and body wash for months.
I had to go pick up another truck today too, and put together food boxes for a single guy we know who has recently lost his job and has NO money coming in. So i got that done.
Yesterday, my troll of a female sibling got my little niece upset and I wound up going to get her last night at 8 o'clock to console her :/ I love my niecey girl, but I really wish sometimes she was old enough to understand. I went through this same garbage with DD because of her mother leaving. It's always the mother calls and makes promises they NEVER even remotely intend to keep so as to string the child along and they wind up in a crying crumpled heap in my lap, and then I want to squish the mothers until their eyeballs pop out
We WILL get through this...I just thought I was finished with the watching children be tortured by their biological parents. It really sucks. Poor kiddos...*sigh*
Last night we talked on the way home, and I made an attempt at explaining in very nice words, that her parents are both more interested in themselves than a child to take care of, and that it is okay if she wants to think of me and Memaw as moms to her instead, and Papaw and Unky as dads. Then we had a major play fight tickle fight and i let her jump on my bed :/ and we took goofy face pictures of each other with my phone and giggled for a few hours before i went to tuck her in. She forgot about the mess, and has had a good time since getting it all off her mind.
On a brighter more sunshiney note, I get to take her to church with me tomorrow, and she had a blast with my other lil niecey girl who lives next door They went to the park today while I ran my errands. Now I have to get her in the bath and cleaned up ready for bed and church clothes laid out for tomorrow.
Hope everyone has had a beautiful weekend so far!
