i am not sure where to post this one but overall things are good (knock on wood). the last couple of years have been some rough ones but it is okay right now.

everyone is coming for my son's b-day BBQ with the zombie theme! my oldest is kinda a pain about asking for any time off but she doesn't work until the evening so i convinced her that she was coming. So both sisters and my mom is driving out and my sister and family plus his friends will all be here. i found a way to put all the food out that looks like it is a zombie body, i had better get working because it is in a week. i already started cleaning the areas we don't really use in the house in prep.

i have been putting 50-75% of child support in savings the last few months. that means i am way closer to not having to make crappy decisions in a year when it is gone. i am starting to look at what we want to do (roommate or move) and not feeling so overwhelmed and pressured.

middle daughter came over, she is still not talking to me about drinking but she did get a new job at Michaels. She is the one who is super creative, she sewed an elegant oscar party dress with no pattern one year, and is constantly doing artistic work. i have some peace around knowing whatever is going on with her drinking i am not in control of that.

and i sewed something pretty cute on my 1/2 day flex time yesterday.

I seem to remember a jello mold that was shaped as a brain a few years ago (saw it sometime around halloween). Cauliflower kind of looks and has the texture (in my eyes) of brains. I used to love it, until I had a bad batch. Now I more tollerate it. (had a similar experience with brocolli that smelled like cooked rubber)
Have fun with the party.

Sounds like a fun time with that theme. Wonder if the attendees will dress up? Makeup stand with daughter's help could be fun too for zombie makeup.
