I wonder...

open house night at C's school last night, we went got the 50 cent tour of his classroom, saw some artwork, special projects the kids have done-usual open house type stuff. I took a look at his journal and his last entry went something like this..
I wonder what my balls do. I think they will help me make babies when I am married.
followed by a picture of C fully dressed but with prominent balls.
The journal starts out with a remembrance of the time he was really really sick(he had rotovirus) and daddy stuck a stick up my butt(it was a suppository and kept C from a stay in the hospital)
this journal is definitely a keeper can't wait to see what he writes next!
or if we will get a phone call from his teacher...

term paper

my term paper is due in a mere 3 weeks so I thought actually choosing a topic & getting started might be a good idea. The teacher seems really hip on the autobiographical in a psychological context paper which honestly doesn't interest me so much.
What did catch my eye was the midlife career change & it's psychological impacts which will mean my paper will have an autobiographical slant anyway. It must run in the family I was able to send out questions to 2 uncles, an aunt & my father
come to think of it I also had a grandmother & grandfather who did the midlife career change too.

how much does that cost?

D killed my crock pot this week. A few years ago when my first crock pot which had been a gift to start with died I tried the whole just replace the liner path, it did not work and after going through 4 new liners, a few hateful phone calls and at least one hateful e-mail Rival finally sent me a whole new crock pot for my troubles. So for the first time in my cooking career I had to purchase a new crock pot the first one I found cost $80 and all it did was cook didn't do the dishes, make the bed or wash clothes $80?!?
and it gets worse I just logged onto bed bath & beyond's web site there is actually a crock pot for $150 even with a 20% coupon that is ridiculous!!!

maybe the week wasn't so bad..

-well I never got real sick which was nice but the sore throat & headaches are lingering so I have diagnosed the problem as allergies-fall has traditionally been my season of misery for many years. nothing lots of sudafed can't help
-the new fridge was delivered, early in fact no waiting for hours upon hours. It is pretty shiny & new and most importantly keeps food refrigerated. we also splurged and bought a stand up freezer so a trip to our butcher in Maryville on the list for the near future.
-D's b-day cake was really good
-D finally asked what I want to do for my b-day, he has been so busy planning that I was beginning to wonder who's birthday we were going to be celebrating.
-the new dining room table has been picked up, it is still sitting in the garage but it will be put together soon, very soon unlike the patio furniture bought in may, even if this means I have to do it myself.
-D was working & C had a party to go to yesterday so I managed to have 3 hours to myself very novel. on the downside of this EVERY store I went to had xmas decorations up it's freaking october people
-as far as october/halloween I bought a pumpkin yesterday, makes me happy I love halloween. I am taking C to buy his costume this week currently he wants to be optimus prime it could change between now & purchase so stay tuned
-it is finally fall and temperatures have dropped below the 90's FINALLY! I love sweater weather
