Another episode of random ramblings

Wow! Can't believe it has been a week since I blogged. My life must be crazy busy or something. I don't know might have something to do with . . .

Dawson coming down with bronchitis and spending 2 1/2 days home from school sick. I was able to get him into the Dr and get him some good meds. He is sounding much better now , a week after starting on antibiotics.

Dawson's stress after missing 2 1/2 days of school and having a WW2 project and a 4 minute speech on Trustworthiness due on Thursday this week. I am sorry but 5th graders should not have to experience the stress I saw on my son's face last night as he could not eat and was just crying. I mean really, the kid was really really sick like he had to go to the dr to get better sick . . . and you can't extend him a deadline. Anyway, he spent some time last night at our family friend, Della the PC, and was able to hash out the WW2 project. Now we just have to come up with a bunch of stuff to say about being trustworthy . .. by tomorrow.

Brandon having some funk and spending 1 1/2 days home from school sick. He was able to get up and get on the "cheese wagon" this morning bright and early at 6:20am. See next item as to why B was riding the bus this morning.

Brandon wrecking his car and having to find someone to get it fixed. Oh yes, this makes #3 oops for my sweet 16 year old boy. This time he oopsd into the back of a friends trailer hitch. His bumper has a nice hole . . .along with his radiator and air conditioner condenser. His cool car is currently sitting at the cool shop getting some cool up to $1500 repairs done to it. So, that would be why cool junior boy had to ride the BUS this morning. Oh yes, the bus!

Those sweet girls, they have really been quiet the last week. They haven't done anything too crazy. Sophia has kept up with the usual questioning. Our last really good one involved asking how we knew our dog went to heaven. "If I am going to heaven because I have Jesus in my heart, and that is because you told me about Jesus, who told Maggie about Jesus so that she could get to heaven?" My reply . . ." Another dog." Followed with "Actually I think all dogs have free passes to heaven." There has got to be a book out there that answers the questions my daughter asks. And if there is not, I should start writing it.
Grace has just remained to be our cute dancing machine. Latest words added to our expanding vocab would be . . . Nasty( what is in her diaper), Buppy (which is Daddy pick me up), Oogie (a stuffed dog), and Baby.

Outside of all the craziness, I have managed to find quite a few high school friends on Facebook. Yikes, that thing is addictive. Plan my Thanksgiving feast for 21. Attend the annual craft show with my peeps. Hang out with the youth at Dodgeball and at Life House. Oh . . . and check this . .. my job, you know the one I was going to lose, they have decided to keep me on. SO for now I am off the roller coaster. I am sure I am still in line as I have come to expect the unexpected at this job. But for now, I have a job and that is something to be soooo thankful for in these economic times. Even if I do work for crazy people who can't decide if they want me or not. I know God is in control, and I will just let him continue to work it all out for me. (I just need to continue to remind myself of that every now and again)

My man, husband, father, love of my life watched the new episode of Hannah Montana with me Sunday night at 10pm. :-) But last night he made me watch this total corny movie of Dungeons and Dragons, I will have to be sure I get the remote tonight. I think it is Clean House or Ace of Cakes tonight - that is if Ace of Cakes decides to get me some new episodes. I can only see you make that Georgetown bulldog and pinball machine so many times.

Okay, this is the end of the random ramblings. Have a lovely day! And thank you for stopping by!
