The week has started off well

This is a strawberry that I grew all on my own and best of all was I beat my son to it....lol...He is always getting out at my strawberries before I even have a chance to see how they`re going....Well today I got one on him and it tasted delicious...hahaha
We had some extremely good news tonight...Krystal got the job at Target and we are all so happy for her....None more so than me....It`ll boost back her confidence and I must say that this job is a darn better one than Hungry Jacks....At least she`ll be able to better herself if she wants too.....
Also I don`t know what has happened but my hubby has changed his tune as well....Not sure whether he has found this blog and he read how I felt but the turn around is amazing....For 3 days in a row he has been out of bed in the mornings and has stayed up all day.....He even went as far as going shopping with me today....I`m just dumb founded....I asked him why the sudden turn around with him being up and about and he said to me that he just has to get past with what`s going on with him otherwise he is going to wither away.....
Geez I`ve been telling him that for months....lol....Anyway it`s nice to have him back ....He will still be moving into his own place eventually as he still strongly believes that is the right thing for him to do....I`m ok with it!!!!!.....
So touch wood things are looking up for this family.....Touching lots of wood here as i type....lol....Hope everyone else`s day was a good one....We seem to be having alot of storms along the east coast......It`s been batten down the hatches.....Stay safe all..

  1. Hello Mandy, Love the Strawberry, glad you got it first.

    Great news on all aspects of the home front. Let's hope it all continues.

    Great news for Krystal, see she was worrying about nothing.

    We had a really bad storm last while I was blogging with Margaret and I was jumping with the thunder. Also storms this morning.

    Take care

    Oh I can taste that strawberry, I bet it was so sweet, yum.....lol

    So pleased that Matt is up and about for his sake and yours, and like you I hope he can keep doing that. I have been wondering how he was, and how you were doing.

  7. Hi Mandy,

    What wonderful news about Matt and about Krystal....and just think it coincided with you growing that strawberry......LOL.

  8. Good morning Margaret....
    I was very impressed with my strawberry as i`ve had the plant for quite a few years now....Maybe it`s finally matured...lol....

    I`m hoping that the change is going to keep going...I know he does have some bad days but it was getting to the point where he was staying in bed just for the sake of it.....Very depressing it was too (for me).....Maybe he finally sore that.. Who knows but I will keep my fingers crossed....
