Joining Lamorgan - we can share a superiority complex!
Quite frankly, I just can never stay awake late enough for the good stuff so I never watch them either.
Hey - today I start back at my music lessons! This will be a shock for my teacher after a whole year off for broken arm, torn rotator cuff and two wrist operations. She may switch me to vocal.
I am going to try very hard to resist the Chinese buffet in Smiths Falls today. Pray for me.
I totally blew off an appointment I had at 8 this morning. I remembered 10 minutes ago. I hate when I act like an airhead. I knew I had parent teacher confrences today and the boys get out at 12:30...but I totally forgot about WIC. They were understanding...but I feel so dumb. I get to go in at 10 instead. Luckily it was just to get checks.
My laundry is getting monsterous! And the internet is so much more fun. But I need to do it. I am running out of things I like to wear. I am planning on changing the sheets on the bed if I can figure out what I did will the other set.
It is a scary wind out today. Do not like it at all. I love thunder and lightning, pouring rain...but please wind -go away!!!!
Well, my journal needs to be updated and then to the garage I go to do the frekin laundry!!!!
Lamorgan-yeah well I went to the National Women's show with my mom a few weekends ago and all these women were crowded around the main stage area.
My mom asked a lady what was going on and and she said "Charlie is here" so I said "Who is Charlie?" and all these women turned and looked at me like I was out of my mind!
My mom matter of factly said that Charlie was the reject from the Bachelor tv show. I told her that I didn't watch that show (evil eyes from surrounding women) and it was really nice of her to call some guy a reject and some one said that that was how they had him billed on the program
I actually FORGOT about the Oscars this year!! I DID see footage of Adrian Brody kissing Hallie Berry though, and judging by what I saw AND her reaction, he is someone else I wouldn't kick out of bed!!!
I HATE reality TV. There is just too much of it in real life for me to view it as entertainment or escapism. I WANT MORE SURREALISM!!!!
Today is one of those days...a wrong look might make me cry. I am not on tops of things. I hate being scolded. It has happened twice today. I like advice normally but not if you are just pick on me. I am not enjoying this wind. Chris and I were suppose to go to Sacramento together on Friday night. Now...I gotta go by myself. It is soooo windy. I hate driving in the wind. It better stop. My girlfriends kids are sick. (I really hope Grif won't get it) I want to curl up in a ball and not think. But I have to go to Rileys parent teacher confrence. She gets to tell me how much he talks. Like this is news to me. I don't want any more critisism. Everyone just be nice to me!
As I said in the Ta-Da post... We bought new living room furniture which is beautiful but I swear my husband is counting chickens before they hatch. I don't start work until May after I graduate and he is already spending the money from my first 6 months of working. Granted I love this furniture, but still....
Skylar won a Art Contest sponsered by one of our local hospitals which completely blew my mind, because I didn't know she entered anything in to a contest for one thing. She is very artsy but I really wasn't expecting that.... Don't even know what it was she entered. ???
Flower ~ Hun, just sit back and relax. I am sorry to hear you are stressed. I hope that you are feeling better soon.
I have a major sinus headache. I feel like I have a ton of bricks sitting on my head. The pollen is so thick around here that you can't tell what color anything is, but the flowers are wonderful.
Rileys confrence went well academically. All a's. She told me he is skipping lunch cause he hates the hot lunch. He hates all foods except chicken fingers and french fries! We are poor, we get free lunch. I let him pick the worst 2 days and pack a cold lunch. She also said he has been way sensitive lately. He gets this from me. He cried 4/5 days last week. He thinks everyone hates him and is spreading rumors about him. No evidence to back this up. He imagines so much. But I know how he feels. I am not sure how to help, cause I am the same way. He is 9, in the 3rd grade.... I tried to talk to him today, which just brought tears. Motherhood sucks sometimes.
I tried to fix a truck problem for Chris. He ordered new planks for his pick up and they aren't right. But as this is not my truck...I couldn't give the guy the new measurements to get him the right one. He will be gone before Chris gets home. What is the difference between Central and Pacific. 2 hours?
I want to go for a really long walk and get lost. But it is too windy. I would probably be blown away and that is not an easy feat. Gotta figure out a different escape. I will get over this mood eventually.... Not even PMS time. Just sensitive! ~flower
We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we get a nicer car, when we are able to go on a nice vacation or when we retire. The truth is there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled with challenges.
It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time with ... and remember that time waits for no one.
So, stop waiting ...
Until your car or home is paid off.
Until you get a new car or home.
Until your kids leave the house.
Until you go back to school.
Until you finish school.
Until you lose 10 lbs.
Until you gain 10 lbs.
Until you get married.
Until you get a divorce.
Until you have kids.
Until you retire.
Until summer..
Until spring.
Until winter.
Until fall.
Until you die.
There is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So work like you don't need money, love like you've never been hurt, and, dance like no one's watching.
But I said one anyhow.
