Blahhh

I was on vacation last week and feel more tired and worn out than before. I didn't go anywhere or do anything but I am feel worn out. My sleep is choppy and between the kids and the husband and the animals I feel pulled everywhere. I feel a bit like I am bobbing in water and just holding my head up. I am in need of a good massage and a good visit with an old friend or two followed by a night of sleeping until I wake up on my own without a phone ringing, a dog barking, a kid crying, an alarm clock et cetra. Then a nice swim and a soak in a hot tub would finish it off. Anyone with me.

Bikini wax

I just had my first bikini wax ever. I was terrifed. I was supposed to have a friend go with you me but she flaked out. So as I was sitting there I went through all the possibilities: it will hurt like hell and I would leave with the wax remaining, it wouldn't be that bad and I would be a new woman, or I could leave and they wouldn't even know. I decided to stick with it and be a real woman: I gave birth to 2 kids without pain meds I can do this. In the end it wasn't that bad and the results are great. I will never shave again.

Spring Break

My kids have become spoiled in regards to getting to do something on spring break. Last year they got to go to Florida, now they think they have to do something fun. They both wrote up lists of what they want to do and expect to do everything on their lists. Now I am on vacation to but somehow I am not getting to do what I want---RELAX. I guess that is gone once you have kids. Oh well. I better go get ready we have swimming planned this morning followed by lunch, a trip to the vets and then maybe a movie.

Patriotic

Patriotic- feeling, expressing, or inspired by love for one's contry
This is now against the rules at Shaw Heights Middle school in Westminster Colorado.
It is hard to believe here in the United States of America that showing support for our country is now deemed offensive. At a time when our troops need to know that they have our full support, our children are being told not to show support for them. Then why are they even putting their lives on the line for us and our freedoms. It is because of the soldiers that have gone before us and given up everything including their lives that we are able to have all the rights we have now. If you are an American and proud of it stand up for our rights and the rights of every American and show your pride and wear RED WHITE and BLUE on Friday April 7th 2006. Spread the word.
