Crazy Days

 I think Monday I said this was going to be a slow week. Boy was I wrong. Another busy day today. I think I need to learn to use my calender a bit better, and know this stuff is coming up. Although half the stuff, the kids bring home from school states: Tomorrow! ACK!

 So today it was work as usual. Kiwana day Wednesday. I love those guys, they are almost like my family, I know their names, orders, and where they sit. Its nice to have them there, Mr. Curtis, he is getting so old, and some times I just wonder how much longer he's going to be around, and that, makes me sad.

 Besides them, we got fairly busy. One of those ALL then nothing days. It came at one time, and then it was over... I think the new guy pissed off my co worker a few times today. The boss exclaimed she was drugged up and ready to make it through her day. I guess she has the flu. Sure hope I don't get it. Bleh.

 So after work my day was nowhere near over. Like a good girl, I once again, hit the gym. 3 for 3 today! Feels good. I hope to keep this momentum up! So after the gym, I drove down the road, got the kids and went to  Promise's parent teacher meetings.

 As always her behavior is wonderful. Bailey actually told one teacher "She has a big attitude at home!" LOL! She has an A in English and the teacher is just wonderful, you can tell its her favorite class. Her worst grade is a C, she has three of them. In science its a very high C that she can easily bring up. Social Studies she is not thrilled with her teacher, but the teacher did say she was certain that Promise would bring that grade up. It was afterall, a big adjustment going into middle school. She tries hard, and she has good behavior, what more can a mom ask for?

 So then it was on to pick up daddy from work, home long enough to pop online, get a snack for the kids, and then back on the road again for a fun filled evening of Chuck E. Cheese. "where a kid can be a kid" and mom gets the night off cooking, the school gets 15% of the profits, and the kids expend a bit of energy on games and then get cheap toys that break before they leave. Oh yes. A night on the town, for a mom.

As you can plainly see, I enjoyed myself.
 So then it was home in time for baths, and homework and then... Not a moment too soon, the blessed bedtime. I am ready to end my day but I wanted to spit out a small blog before I did that.

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 ...
