It was horrible! Both of the girls have been battling diarrhea (Ariel longer than Clarity) but they aren't complaining. No change in appetite, no stomach aches, they just run about their lives and go potty when they have to without incident. I guess it's a tummy bug and we're just waiting it out. Ariel ended up taking a broom to her sister's head (have no idea why!) and Clarity got a huge bump and bruise. I lost it on poor Ariel. I yelled and screamed and scared myself how mad and out of control I felt. I wanted to call the cops to take me away. Thank God Ariel is forgiving. After I cooled off (I just had to leave the room), I apologized (and cried) for how I acted with her. I was feeling so blessed guilty about it the rest of the day and night that I prayed to God if I ever felt that again, that he would just let me die of a heart attack or something because she didn't deserve to see me psychotic. All is good in Ariel and Mommy world now though. We've been sharing lots of hugs, kisses and love. I explained to her that mommy's make mistakes too and just like she shouldn't go being mean to her sister, it was wrong of me to go and be mean to her. She understood, apolgized and kissed Clarity and then gave me kisses and said she was always going to love me *sniff*. I told her she will never have any idea how much I love her and her sister. So that's the main reason for my title "We'll just forget about yesterday".
I *think* I have it too but I'm just riding the nausea roller coaster with it. Constantly feeling the need to be sick. I actually PRAY it's a virus because the virus will go away. I was doing fine with the whole morning sickness thing for a while and I had just bragged to Jesse about how good it felt to just wake up and feel like a normal person. Hopefully I didn't jinx myself. The past few days my stomach has felt horrid.
On a bright note... we got approved for financing for our furniture!! So by the end of the month we will have a new couch, recliner, loveseat, and dining room table. I'm sooo happy. Right now our furniture situation is sad and pathetic. lol. I do, however, need to find a way to help Jesse bring in income. I'm so tired of constantly struggling and having to use credit cards. So I'm going to try to make up some flyers or something and babysit from home that way I can still homeschool Ariel (which we have started a bit and she's doing beautifully by the way) and be home with the girls. Hopefully I can find a way to at least bring in $300 a week. If anyone has any ideas.. let me know! Any prayers you care to send up for us would be great and appreciated too!

I have done mystery shopping off and on for a bit of extra money. You need to look for jobs through the Mystery Shopping Providers Association (www.mysteryshop.org), which is the only one of its kind - internationally recognized and legitimate.
I did pay the $15 and take the course/test to receive my silver certification. It did allow me access to more job opportunities. I never did do the more expensive (and difficult) gold certification. However, I got all of the little odd jobs just with the silver.
The course and test do teach you the basics of mystery shopping, and it lets those businesses know that you have at least a little bit of training.
Anyway - just FYI!!
