real reason I am not headed to the derby


hats-I can't wear 'em. I love them. I love the idea of wearing one. I just cannot pull it off, I'm ok in the occasional baseball hat but that's it. And mint juleps just sound gross I can't even stomach a mojito but for some reason I still really want to go to the derby...
one of these days....

something I never imagined saying

unless the house is on fire or you are bleeding out of your eyeballs leave mommy alone for a minute while she pees

summer camp

so we are back here again already-where did the year go???
C is signed up for the "summer camp" at his daycare which while a daycare center it is I guess just aftercare for him and summer camp as well I don't think the semantics of what we are calling it bothers C as of yet. We are golden with where we are at till 5th grade which will I'm sure be here before you know it! I am still having a hard time believing he starts 3rd grade in August-did I not just give birth? no I guess I can't be still calling this baby weight anymore then can I?
So any way just a few more years then we will have to arrange a series of day camps for the boy-the paper puts out a supplement each spring that lists a multitude of day camp & summer activities which should help in the planning.
Sleep away camp also came up this weekend and I hope that we will be able to swing that for C at some point. I always desperately wanted to do that in the summer but alas we never did..I was such a deprived child or was that depraved? I get confused.

everyone just needs to get out of the way

good grief the backroom is ridiculous today. I can't do my work because I can't get to my work.
I am cranky maybe I should just go home and take a nap.....

seperation of church and state

religion is a personal thing it does not belong in the public school system and here is an excellent opinion on the subject from missy it is a must read!

and no one got eaten by a bear


although we did try to convince C that he needed to tell everyone he injured his face while fighting off an attacking bear. It makes for a better story than I was running, tripped on a tree stump and fell on my face.
But noooo "that's silly mom a bear would have just eaten me I could not outrun it they are very fast" Luckily no major damage a good bruise, couple of scratches and a little bit of a black eye makes him look very roguish-all the girls should be swarming today...
It really was a lot of fun I think we did better with what we did & did not bring this time around with even more room for improvement next time and now that we own our own stuff I really thing we should try to go more than once a year! Might be tricky-trying to coordinate a group of people and arranging 1 weekend when everyone is free is easier said than done

little creepy...

the weather after having watched the freakin' Mist last night!
I'm just saying' who the hell knows what they are doing out in Oak Ridge these days..hmmm?
