It's 8:20pm and I am heading to bed?! Am I getting sick? I have no clue but I can NOT keep my eyes open. I'm calling it a night. I think all this running around is catching up to me.
Whew...If you knew what my last two days have held you'd be tired too. So no playing catch up with my CT tonight. Just 18 more days and the craziness will be over with. (I HOPE!)

Furnace is ON
Darn it...Added this little note so I can remember next year how early I had to turn on the furnace. It's only 44 degrees outside right now at 10am? HUH? I know, I live in Michigan, but come on...

Here we all are...out trick or treating together! Love my girlfriends!! Look how cute we would look if we really could go out together! Of course I had to add my little Sister in the mix. I don't like to go away with her! heehee Plus she loves black cats so she had to be that one! I, of course, am the witch! Fitting!

Watermelon
Remember the seeds we planted earlier in the year...this is what they produced. ONE TINY little watermelon. Seriously?! LOL We have no clue if it will get any bigger or if we should just pick it since we have not grown them before. Will was really excited about it though and that's all that matters!

Walk to school day
It's walk to school day. Which means the "bus" kids get to walk from the HS to the Elementary. Which basically means wet feet! LOL There is always so much dew on the grass. I might make my group walk AROUND the school on the pavement this year. It's longer but hey we are doing it for exercise right so why not walk around! LOL
Still bothered by the lack of parental involvement lately at our school. I mean, in this economy, with people laid off they have nothing BUT TIME, am I wrong? Grrr...Some people's children. I refuse to let it get to me. I'm going to let it go. I just had to get it off my chest. But for those of you with school aged children. Stop and think about how much time you invest in helping out. Could you do any more? Probably. So why not offer to help out for ONE EVENT PER YEAR. It's an hour out of your life or less. You are not committing to a life sentence people. There...now if I only had the guts to send this to 200 people directly! LOL hahahahaha

Biggest Loser
For goodness sake...why do I BAWL every time I watch this show? God I so feel their pain. That's probably why I feel so emotional when I watch this show. I'm feeling some motivation biting me.
Kristin
I am thinking of you. Good luck with the surgery and I hope you have a speedy recovery. If you need me, just say so! GOOD LUCK, CYBER SISTER!! I'll be thinking of you tomorrow. XOXO MWAH!
Isn't life suppose to be...
Fun?
Do I have to remind certain people of that all the time!? You get out of life what you put into it. I'm giving all I have and yet I still have to pick up the slack for others. Geez...get with the program parents!

one of those days
yep it was...
but the best part was coming home from work to see a shutterfly box laying on the table! Ahhh...my Cali photobook is here! I looked at it really fast and started to get teary eyed so I put it down. I had the best time out there and I am so sad to think that I can't just get in the car and drive to see Shell whenever I want. I'm so lucky to have Bev so close to me. And I'm even more lucky to have the BEST FRIENDS a girl could ask for. TRULY. ok...tears are coming again. Just know this....I LOVE YOU SHELL! You are so fun and I adore you.
And BEV...we need to meet up so I can bring you your book!! And a huge hug!
We really need to plan on a reunion in the spring. I'll start saving my pennys right now!

Ikea bound
Heading to the big blue and yellow store with my sister today! WAHOOO!!! We have decided its time for Will's bedroom make over. I think old fashion Winnie the Pooh and friends has lived it's course. He's now 7 and ready for something new. So we are doing Blue, Orange, and Lime.
His favorite color is ORANGE (go figure) so that was easy enough! Here's what I think we are going to pull our colors from. Some bowls at Ikea. Just love these colors and they are so WILL!

Two toothless children
Daddy pulled Zander's first. His first "molar" and it has a silver "star" in it. Will see's that his older brother did just fine with his Daddy helping the tooth out so he says, Do mine next. His was more loose than Z's. So with one tiny tug it was out. So I have TWO children going to the first day of School with one less tooth. What a fine day! Ah...tomorrow will come all too soon and I'm more nervous than the boys. They are both very excited and ready to go back to school. Wish I could say the same. I'm gonna miss my boys. How will I ever survive them going off to college? AHhhhh Can't go there. Just going to enjoy what we have NOW!

I'm Featured!!
I was contacted a few weeks back about being the featured Digital Discovery for ScrapStreet Magazine. It's an online publication. So, here's the article. Read it, Print it, Frame it, and let me autograph it because it will be the one and only time you ever hear me say these words! I'm so proud of myself! How cool is this?! Really!
Thank you to whom ever nominated, noticed, or named me for this opportunity! My first time ever for such an event and I think it's pretty cool that my designers got the opportunity to get their names in print too! It's a win-win for all for sure. Now stop reading my post and go read the article! It won't mean anything unless you read it! heehee
