Today is Thursday (tgit)
I’m so glad it’s Thursday and one day closer to Friday…It’s just been a long week. I’m just ready to sleep in on Saturday altough it’s not like we aren’t busy lol. We’ve got Corn School tonight and the boys are marching in the parade and tomm. they are marching well more like riding on the fire truck lol.. Corn School btw is just a big street fair that celebrates harvest time Lagrange has done it for 100 some years lol.. What can I say I live in the hicks (said w/lots of love) They close down the main street in Lagrange and put rides,games, FOOD, vendors you name it they have it @ Corn School. I found out last night at chuch they used to have elephants way back when lol.. I’ll have to take pics it’s something else..And EVERY NIGHT they have a parade it’s always a diff. theme.. Tonight is the schools/sports/bands. Tomm is fire depts/police/vetrans etc..Sat is everyone and anyone, Tue and Wed I’m not sure what they were but it’s always fun. I can’t wait to march in the parade w/Benny’s class and I can’t wait until tomm. b/c I get to ride on the fire truck lol.. Am I a dork or what. It’ll just be nice to be a little relaxed and kick back.. And of course eat tacos @ the taco place lol.. And mayonaoise/cheese corn on the cob lol.. Yummy I so can’t wait. I tried not to eat lunch but I’ve got a headache now so I ate some pizzza and took some aleve so hopefully I get rid of my headache soon… What else lots of stuff is running thru this brain of mine but who knows what’s going to come of my fingertips… Well I suppose I’ll go and get back to working/watching can’t buy me love lol.. I love that movie..

just the ramblings of a pto crazy mom
ok this is going to be random ramblings and we’ll see where this goes. I’m ready to go home it’s been a long day but not a long day if that makes sense..I guess I’m just tired..On a nice note I had my first comment lol..horray..I’m still trying to get the hang of the blog thing… Tuesday was Benny’s bday so he’s now offically 5 wow…horray…It was a nice day. I had to work until 11 but that was ok. I came home after I was done @ the school doing my “supermom” stuff we got ready for the “BIG” day lol.. Benny wanted tacos, and a half choc. half white cake w/choc. and vanilla frosting on it so that’s what I baked him. I kept asking him all day “So Benny how does it feel to be 5″ and his response was always “It feels GREAT” what a kid.. Well then this was so funny after my pto meeting I came home and asked him the same thing and he said the same thing only w/a little flourish.. He patted his head and was feeling his hair and he said “I still have my hair” well come to find out my mom told him on sat. that he’d better be careful b/c when he turned 5 he might start losing his hair like poppa. LOL.. how funny..But he had a really good bday. He got an MP3 player from his nana, he got a kasey kahne car and a race mat from his other nana, he got all ben 10 stuff from us, hea and nate got him more ben 10 stuff.. And he’s having a bowling bday party in a couple of weeks so that will be fun. He’s going to invite the kids in his class and a few other so it’ll be fun..

a new day
Lately I’ve been in a funk… I think that things are finally starting to fall in place again. I used to do a bible study every week and then it just kind of fell apart. Two of my friends that were in it moved so their husbands could go to college to be pastors which is cool so that just left me and one other girl and it just kind of floundered.. So I’ve been floundering as of late in my walk with God which is never a good thing to do. I hate being off track in anything much less my walk with God. Well the other day my friend Amber and I were talking online and the topic of bible studys came up so we put our pretty (crazy) heads together and came up with a plan and things are just falling into place. HORRAY!!! We are going to start with the book of Ecclasties.. I glad to get back on track. It will be nice to be held accountable again. B/c I wasn’t doing a good job on my own. I don’t want the boys to look @ me and think what a “christian” that they have for a mom..
On a brighter note Karla (our exchange student that we had) is coming home in 5 days for about 2 weeks. She’s going to be busy so I’m not sure how much we’ll see her which kind of sucks but she’s only one girl and she’s loved and missed by many..She was such a blessing to have. I can honestly say that it was one of the best things we did having her in our lives. It was one of those things that I kind of did on my own before Craig was onboard lol..I’ve been know to do those things.. But she really was a blessing not just to us but to some other ppl too. She was with us for 10 months and never once in all that time did we not want her in our home, or have issues with her, or anything like that. In fact it was just the opposite. It was the hardest think putting her back on that plane to go home to Mexico. I cried for days afterwards.. She really became a huge part of our family. Her and Benny really bonded and Benny really has missed her about as much as I have. He asks about her almost every day still. 
She was wonderful with the boys and we all have so many great memories and we took so many pictures with her in them so we have lots to look back on. She is just such an amazing girl and we love her so much.I’m getting all emotional now thinking how am I going to cope when she goes back home again. It’s going to be really hard. But it will be ok…So yeah we are all on the “Karla countdown” Benny knows that Aug 4th his Karla comes home lol. He is telling me that everyday. I know that Nate has missed her too and is just as excited but it’s Nate and he is older and it’s the whole different ball game with him. LOL.. Anyway I just completely went blank on what else I wanted to say so I guess that’s about all folks..

venting
Ok now that I vented about trying to figure out how to subscribe to other blogs which btw I’m taking a break for right now on…I’m going to vent just about stuff.. Ok why is it that noone in my house can clean it. My sister lives w/us and takes care of the boys (which don’t get me wrong is a godsend) but she doesn’t clean and I’m not expecting her to be a maid but @ least p/u after yourself. My husband had a two week “vaction” and didn’t get really anything clean around the house. I got more accoplished yesterday in two hours than he did in two weeks. Is it that hard to clean. I guess it is…My mom came over to take Ben to the dentist and did my dishes God bless mom’s. BTW I have a really nice dishwasher so I’m still trying to figure out why stuff isn’t put in it. I work all day why do I want to come home at the end of the night and clean. I don’t mind doing it when I do it I tend to get a “little” ocd. LOL…Because I’d rather come home and spend it w/the boys but it’s getting to the point where I am about ready to go postal on my household…I just don’t get it. Come on get out the vacum, grab a cloth, grab a mop, broom, take out the trash if you see it spilling onto the floor..Let’s go ppl….Gotta love it….Well no not really but ya all know what I mean…It’s getting old…I know I’m not perfect but I would really like some help.. Oh well..I told my mom yesterday when I was complaing about all this that I don’t know why I complain b/c I know that nothing is going to change but it still feels good to complain.

Ok I’m for the most part computer savy..I love techie gadgets but I’m going crazy trying to figure out how to link up w/other ppl’s blogs..Come on I’m a pro @ myspace and facebook and tons of other stuff why can’t I figure this out..Ugh…Arrrrr….When I figure it out I’m sure I’ll kick myself in my now blond head..Well almost blond thanks to some awesome highlights. But anyway I’m getting ready to scream and me being @ work screaming would not be good so blogging here I come. So if anyone reads this help would be the bestest thing in the world……Anyway back to grying to figure this thing out…. Good luck to me

just another day
I’ve been in a rut lately. I haven’t been praying like I should and I know that I haven’t been living in God like I should and I don’t like it at all. When I had my bible study it kept me in perspective and kept me in check. Now that we don’t have it anymore I feel like I’m drifting and I don’t like it. I keep thinking to myself what it says in Matt 7:13-1413 “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. 14 “For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.” And I don’t want to be one of those that doesn’t fit thru the gate.
I’ve had lots of things going on in my life lately. And it always makes me wonder what is the purpose in all of this madness. All I want to do is be a good person, a good mom, and all that stuff.
Well I suppose I need to get back to work.
