Report Cards are boring...

so, what i should really be doing is report cards. but, they are boring. so i got on my computer and found lots of fun things to do....

like, update my ipod (including putting the new HSM3 cd on my ipod) update my GPS, put pictures on my computer, pay some bills, check facebook, check my checking account, and last but not least, my blog. :)

i'm not really looking forward to this week. although it is early release and we get out at 12:10, it's conference week...and i have to meet with all of my kids' parents. it's so hard to be 22 and talk with people that have 10 year old children. they don't like to take me seriously. and honestly, i kind of get that.

my mom had an interview with richmond county on friday. it is for a really high up job in the county that would be perfect with her doctorate. honestly, i hope she gets the job. i think it would be exactly what my family needs. my mom would move in with my dad in augusta, it would force them to sell the house (and clean up all the crap) it would force me to move out and get a place of my own, and it would be kind of a clean slate/fresh start for all of us. i don't know what scott would do, but he did get a job...so that's a start.

anyway, i guess i should get back to slaving over the ol' papers. :) i'll update when i have more important stuff to say.

until next time...

never thought i could do it, but i did!

I took a day off! weird, i know. as i am sitting here at 8:30am, i can't help but think about my kids taking their math test. lame, i know. but i just can't help it! sitting here not sick, with nothing really that i have to do, just something that i want to do...it feels so wrong. like i abandoned them or something. the saddest part is, i couldn't sleep in. i woke up at 5. and then again at 5:30 and then again at 6...then when i finally thought i was asleep for the long haul, my mom comes in freaking out wondering why i'm not up yet. hahaha...oops. guess i forgot to tell her i was taking the day off.

anyway, enough mopey-ness about my day off. on the upside, i made cinnamon rolls for myself this morning--the cinnabon kind. yum! and i'm going to take a long hot shower and not worry about who has to use the hot water after me, cuz no one's here. :) i'm going to watch regis and kelly at 9, i'm going to pack and be outta here. hopefully by 10:30. aaaaand the best part is there is no school on monday. thank you, dr. king.

so, not much else is going on. i'm headed to birmingham. looking forward to seeing bekah, not looking forward to the long drive and noisy kids.

so, i guess that's all that's on my mind for now. :) until next time....

PS-anyone wanna do anything for spring break? lol...its weird having a vacation all to yourself. how un-fun is that?

its time

i think i've had a sufficient hiatus from blogging. although, i'm not sure what i want to blog about at the moment. so, maybe i'll just do one of my famous random lists. here goes.

1. i have a packed schedule this week, and i couldn't be more excited about it. monday, dinner with friz. tuesday, dinner with trace, wednesday: hanging out with matt and dev, thursday: dinner at julia's, and friday, i'm heading to birmingham to spend time with bekah and jimmy. i don't know what i'm going to do with myself :)

2. there is officially nothing on tv right now. so, i'm watching karate kid II. yay.

3. my dad is going to start a fire, and upon bringing in wood, he just stepped in doggie poo, and i'm laughing so hard right now.

4. i hate boston terriers. remind me never to get one.

5. i want to live on my own, but thats not going to happen for awhile.

6. i love the wii. even though i suck at most video games (and i'm always reminded by my brother) i still like playing.

7. i officially felt old on friday when i played the ultrasonic ringtones for my kids and they laughed at me when i couldn't hear the ones above 17khz.

8. i love tea with milk and honey.

9. i need a haircut.

10. i love heating pads.

11. fires are sweet. and so are dads who build them. :)

12. i am trying my hand at making porkchops for dinner if anyone wants to come over and try them. :) scott was going to be here, but he bailed on me.

13. i need some new clothes, but i can't make myself go shopping. :/

14. i am still on book 3 of harry potter. its slow going, but i'm determined to be finished with all of them by this time next year. :)

so, i guess that's about as good as it's going to get toady. nothing deep, nothing philosophical. just the way it is.

until next time...
