Good Morning!

Hi Kath, I don't know what it is but so many times I have lost my post by just hitting something wrong and then it just disappears, so frustrating! Your stove sounds like it will be a great addition, I'm sure it will be worth all the effort when it is finished! My Mom has been in the middle of remodeling and boy is she just ready to have it over with, I think they are doing the finishing touches today and it will be complete, then she will be happy! I agree with you, I'm totally baby stepping it, maybe next week I will be back on the treadmill at a much slower pace

Hi Boston, Your poor son, I know earaches are the worse! Erik is like your son, he can be the sweetest person and then take a turn and be so mean! I sure hope he grows out of that, its hard to deal with! I read that Dawn detergent is good for the smooth stove tops as it is a great grease fighter, I also read that you should NEVER clean your smooth stove top while it is still hot, you need to wait for it to cool, I hope you find  what works for you. Other than the cleaning do you like cooking on a smooth top stove?

Well, the car is still parked by the park, when Pat gets home today he is going to work on getting it towed home, no since in worrying about it, we were handed this and we just gotta go with it. I'll tell you what, I didn't lose my sleep over it, Patrick came over last night and said to me, Mom worrying about it and not sleeping is not going to magically put the car in the driveway, and he's so right, so I decided to give my worry over to God and just trust that God has a reason for everything! We will get through this too, oh and Erik said to me, are you sorry you got the Disneyland passes now that the van broke down? I said NO WAY! even if I knew beforehand that this was going to happen I still would have gotten them, because this shall pass and we will still have a FULL year with disney to leave all of our worries behind!
I did have a good cry about it last night and it reminded me of this scripture...

psalm 30:5 For his anger endures but a moment; in his favor is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

I hope you all have a wonderful day!
