Grrrr....

My children have decided that unless I am angry (AKA YELLING!) OR have repeated the same request at least 35 times, that they do not need to listen to me.

And FYI...new definition of the word "No" when I say it to my children...
ask me again in a different way and with a slightly different set of options
and again
and again
and again.

Seriously, doesn't "no" mean NO anymore???!!!

Blessed Beyond Belief

What a great weekend I had!

FRIDAY!
Took the princess to











Then went here to stock up for the week












We then went home to do a little of this before bed











SATURDAY
We got to play here all day with friends! It was heavenly!











SUNDAY
Early morning












Then off to












Home for a bit more of this














Time for a bit of this for Mommy












Came home to find the babysitter had offered this for dinner











Which meant I did not have to do any












Now that the kids are











I will watch this and other non intelligent programs












While I do this










I might even treat myself to this













Really...can it get any better than this??? Only if hubby didn't have to work and could have enjoyed it all with us. I am blessed in so many ways!

Crunch Crunch Crunch

I cannot stand the sound of someone crunching food. My husband does it like no other! I cannot get far enough away from him and his Wheat Thins right now.

For The Record...

...Mountain Biking TOTALLY ROCKED! I could get addicted to this sport!

The Cat Is Out Of The Bag!

well....I thought I could hide it from you all with the whole "I'm going back to school thing". But things have gotten out of hand and now it is public. This is what I am really up to these days!

For Diane

Brian aint' got nothin' on my son! He is a world class sucker. I pay tuition for him to sit in class and do this to himself...nice.

Katsup

I keep trying to Blog. Honestly I do...but things have been a bit hectic lately so I just haven't had it in me. This is my feeble attempt at Katsup!

*Summer ended with a bang. Our last attempt at a family get-a-way was ruined by a freak hail storm and a wet dog attack. Next year, I want to go to Hawaii! Don't you think I deserve a vacation???

* School started today. Both kids got the teachers they wanted. That made for happy parents too!

*Where there's a will there's a way. I found a way. I start a MA/VI Specialist program on 9/22. I can't believe I am going back to school too!

*I began biking to get in shape for the Muddy Buddy. I found a group to train with and have my first ride with them on Friday!

*Summer recap-lots of camps, VBS, skate park, water slide and fun! (No vacation though. grrrrr.....)

*I am too tired to write any more...except this...anyone who truly knows me knows that I HATE talking about myself or having people look at me. But I do have to admit, I am proud of myslef...I lost 30 lbs this summer. It's been said. You can look once and then forget about it. I don't want the attention. Move on.
