Moving On
I realized today i get too bogged down sometimes. Not with stuff to do so much but with emotional crap. I let stuff in and let it eat at me for way too long. I'm going to try to be better. As one of my friends once said it's my midyear resolution...haha. It's just when you think about it that stuff doesn't just get to you it seeps into everything. It makes it's way into all the litlte facets of your life and it's not fair....not fair to the other people that you are sharing that life with. Sometimes it's just so hard to step away from it all but I need to do it more. So today I begin....knock on wood it goes well....
Time
Where did all the time go? I feel like I just can't get it all done anymore. I sit and I think I didn't use to have this problem so where did all the time go?

Commercials
So Cody and I were talking last night and we got on the subject of old cereal commercials. We talked about Cocoa Puffs, Rice Krispies, Honey Combs....actually that's the one that started the conversation. We talked about how the old Ovaltine commercials are back and still kind of crappy. And Kool Aid and of course I thought of Calgon take me away. haha. Any other old commercials you can think of?? It was a lot of fun.

Moms and Muffins
This week was Moms and Muffins at Hailey and Justin's school. It was so cute. Hailey got to read me a little story she had written and illustrated for me. She had to read it in front of all the Moms. She did great. After that they sang a bunch of songs and then came and sat down with us. We got to have lemonade or tea to drink and of course muffins. Justin didn't sing too much last year but this year he was very into it. Oh one little boy got really sad and was sitting with the teacher while everyone was singing. The teacher sits right in front of them and kind of leads the singing etc. Justin saw the little boy crying and got really upset. He looked over at me and he saw me smile and then he smiled. It was so sweet. Afterwards Justin wanted me to go on the playground for a bit so I did. He showed me everything. they both made me necklaces and chocolate roses and the roses were in a little ceramic pot they decorated. They also made placemats. I will miss not having one for Hailey next year and it will be Justin's last one...:(. It's weird I think Hailey going to 1st grade will get to me more then when she went into kindergarten. I think it's because they spend the first 3 years in the same classroom and now she's moving up. I'm floored that she will be in 1st and Justin will be my big kindergarten boy next year. I'm excited and sad all at once. Justin is moving to a new classroom...I requested Hailey's teacher be his teacher next year. And Hailey will get homework next year...Yikes!!! Matthew is still going to be in his classroom so at least it's not a triple whammy...haha. And then I'll get more Moms and Muffins with him...yeah!

Matthewese
Matthew is saying so many more things but some of them are just impossible to understand. Tonight his frustration with us boiled over. I'm still not sure what he was saying. First he said he wanted to eat and that was fine but then it sounded like he said I want car. He had some cars out and Rick tried but that didn't work out. He just got mad. He got over it and started being his silly self but as Kara and I joked this weekend I don't always understand Matthewese...

Dumb Floridians
So I was thinking about voters in Florida today. Well more like last night but it carried over to today. I noticed that teachers, in Florida, have a good chance of being let go because there isn't enough money to pay them. Lets see why is that....hmmm...maybe because voters decided to pass an amendment that would take away taxes needed to pay for things like teachers, emergency services, our police...etc. My sister is a teacher and she was told that she would be affected by this amendment. There just isn't enough money. Some schools have said they will try to cut non instructional staff first but it's crazy. Back to voters...it amazes me how they just don't look into what they are voting for. These days if an amendment needs a yes to go through you know it's going to go through. Most voters just vote yes for everything. A perfect example was the fast rail. the first time everyone voted for it you put yes to make it happen. Next time yes to make it not happen...amazing how it's not happening. I'm just venting because I'm mad. I know another problem is we have a large retired population in this state and for them it's what is best for them right now not the overall...still frustrating...
