School Picture Day


 The kids were told yesterday that Monday was school picture day. So as they come up to me in the car line after school they are telling me about it, Bailey tosses his backpack in the van and exclaims " I am not having my picture taken." I told him, he "had" to have it done. It was for the year book. He argued with me for a little while then got into his seat and as he buckled up he said "Fine, but I am not dressing up, and looking all handsome and stuff." I told him that would be okay, he could just dress like normal, but he might still be handsome anyway...

 Took the girls to Awana's and then took Destiny shopping for clothes. I can say one thing, the girl does now where to get a deal, and she is thrifty too! She gets that from her mama, I think. I have fun with her, when its just her and I together. She is a real person then, funny, cute un-irritating. I laughed, and we had fun, I wonder why it can' t be like that at home, she says she does not know. Oh well. As long as we have our times together to remind me now and then why I am keeping her around.

 I made the 2 little girls bags, to put their Bible, Awana book and such in. Promise is apparently now offering me to make some for her friends... I think its time to teach her how to sew!

 Tim got told, by a little girl at his work (a customers child) That he was grumpy. Or she asked why he was "Mad" He told her he was not mad and she said "Yes you are, becuase when your eyebrows go together like that, it means your mad." So now I constantly tease him about his eyebrows and being mad. Life, is good.

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

8 years at the same job!

 I will say this about my work. No matter what is said, word gets around. Words also get twisted and changed, and rumors fly like well I don't know kites? I think co-workers are like a second family, not like to the point where you want to invite them over for Thanksgiving dinner... More like your around them enough that you are more than likely to have seen a bad side of them, and learned some annoyances. Chances are they were grumpy or depressed or pissed at some point and you have seen them at their worst. I think that makes it easier to get under each others skin and become annoyed. You get annoyed, you get over it, you move on. Your still co workers and you still get through. Like family, there are spats, you get over it move on and after it all your still family.  So do I always love my co workers or getting up early, or when someone is rude to me, or when I don't make any money... OF COURSE NOT. I have good days and I have bad days. Today it was raining, I would have ...

The Lady In Red

  T he Frisco festival was this weekend. Fun times. Free rides, well this year half the rides were free. A band playing live and just fun all around. We always go of course, any time anything is free, were there!  Since we are not cool Destiny went with some friends and not us. Bailey was staying the night with a buddy so the 2 girls that were home, I told could bring a friend... Fun times.  At one point they were waiting in line for a slide/funhouse ride, after a certain point of waiting in line they were finally up to the part with the sign: At the bottom the sign says "If you are in the red sorry you cannot ride the ride"  Hannah is standing there, and she is looking quite concerned after a while... She looks at me and she says "mama, Lauren cannot ride this ride." then she points to the sign.  Oh yes, Lauren is VERY MUCH so over the green line... Heck Lauren is taller than Hannah so I am thinking what is your deal girl??!  Hannah then looks ...
