my husband

I have the most wonderful husband in the world!

Last night I talked to my parents and offered to fly them out here for Ambers sweet 16 party. Rusty was so jazzed that I came up with that idea. I told Rusty that if they come out we will have to do rearranging to help my dad. Rusty said that he does not care and that he will do whatever needs to be done!

I must have done something right to deserve such a great man!

Work is turning into a nightmare! I just keep telling myself only 6 more weeks left and then I am so out of there!

Well not to much else is going on, so I am going to go clean.

never a dull moment

So, when you live in California you can never know what to expect. My dad calls us the land of fruits and nuts and sometimes I think he is right!

For those of you who do not know what is going on here let me fill you in. There is a bill in the Senate that would make you a felon if you are in America ILLEGALLY! Go figure, since you are braking the law. Anyway since this bill looks like it is going to pass, all of the children of ILLGALL'S are walking out of schools and protesting on school grounds!

Now if that is not saying here I am come get us I don't know what is. Our 13 year old was forced to go to a rally to support these children. We are so pissed off!

The high school students are jumping fences and running out onto the freeway's! These children are so stupid.

I swear I just want to scream! Then we get this phone call from the school. ( a recorded message) Telling all of us parents that we should talk to our children about this issue. So now I am super pissed.

I did talk to our children and here is what I said. " o.k. girls here is the deal. I do not support the walk outs and I do not support Illegal. My grandparents had to come to this country LEGALLY. On my mom's side, who is 1/2 native American, has been here forever. If these people cannot come here the right way then they need to leave. If I find out that you went to a rally to support these these people then I will kick your ass. Is that clear?" The girls got the message.

Then Nikki tells me that they were locked in the lower field for an hour! What? it was wet and raining off and on all day. Then we get another recorded message from the school saying there was a bomb threat at the school. What the hell is going on here?

o.k. I am off my soap box now.

I think that I am going to do some sewing today and I don't know what else. I just do not feel like doing much.

Yesterday I did a good clean out on the house. I got rid of the games that the children to do not play, all of the puzzles that I have done, and most of all, I got rid of a ton of just crap.

I think our stuff just breeds and it never breeds into anything good! LOL

I did find Rick and Leslies flags yesterday. I had put them up so that they would not get ruined. I need to go get some flag boxes so that we can display them and keep them from getting ruined.

I hope everyone has a good day!

busy

Well, I made it through two days of work. I offered to take some extra hours, since Ryans glasses broke. The things we parents do for our children! LOL Now don't get me wrong, I could just go take the money out savings, but I would rather not do that.

My goal is to go back and visit my father around fathers day. If for some reason that date does not work then, I will have to pick a new date.

One of my co workers is a breast cancer survivor and she asked me to walk in the walk for a cure. I just might do that. I do know that I am going to buy a candle and have my dads name put on it.

The girls have been in rare form for the last week. We have suddenly become the most stupid people on the planet. Well even more then before. I do see us coming to blows, but I am trying real hard for that not to happen. Every time something negative or mean comes out of their mouth I say something positive and nice back to them. That usually shuts them up.

Well it is back to my day. I have some cleaning to do and then I am going to do nothing for the rest of the day.

bike riding

Rusty and I went for a bike ride this morning. I am just so happy that the weather is now nice again. I was really starting to miss our bike rides.

Rusty said that his fat boy jeans are now getting big on him, but he still is not back to pre heart attack weight. I know it will happen for him, we just need to moving and the weight will come off.

Yesterday I took Nikki shopping for some summer skirts and we found none. I did however find some clothes for Ryan.

Finding clothes that actually fit Ryan is very hard. He is just so small for his age and so damn skinny.

Any way there is not to much else going on here.

I hope everyone has a great day!

no book

Well I did try to read a book yesterday! I just had to much energy for that! So instead I watered the grass real good and pulled weeds in the flower beds. I will be planting new flowers soon and I cant wait to get started on that!

Last night we went and watched Amber danced. She did awesome. I am glad that she has found something to do!

Ryan has a game this morning. I love watching the little guys play ball. They play with so much heart and they are just out there having a good time.

We are suppose to have some friends over for dinner tonight. The last time I spoke with them, they had same nasty cold at their house. So I really hope that they do still come over.

Today I am going to watch Ryan's game and try to do some stuff around here. If the weather is nice I know that the sunshine will drag me outside! Maybe the sun shine will drag me to the store to start buying some flowers. LOL

I hope everyone has an  awesome day!

nice day

Well the is shinning and I am feeling so much better. I am looking around the house at everything that I should be doing.

I think I am just going to leave it. It will be there in a few hours. I am going to go take a book and go sit in the sun! Thats right everyone I am going to take some me time!

I will talk to everyone later on. I think everyone should go enjoy the sunshine!

still sick

My cold is still hanging on. I am going to beat this cold! I refuse to be sick. lol

Rusty is meeting with Ambers teachers this morning. I am telling everyone now that if you have a child going to school in California beware! The system sucks the older the children get. The high school exit exam is set at an 8th grade level and most of the children in high school can not pass it.

Tomorrow I am going to go shopping and start getting ready for the extra children. I do not usually have a lot of snack food, but I am going to stock up on it!

I am just so thrilled that our friend trust us enough to leave their children here and that we can spoil them and then send them home.

I have to work today so I should go finish getting ready and do some stuff around here.

I hope everyone has a great day!
