My Weekly Blog...

I dont know what it is about Wednesday but apparently this is the only day of the week I give this blog any thought these days! So here is what has been going on with me this past week...

Nothing interested happened last week...just the same old stuff...work and spending time with the kiddos. This past weekend was really fun. Friday, Jessica and I met up with Kirby for dinner at Logan's, then we ended up at Kirby's apartment for some cards and just goofing off and acting crazy. Jessica and I didnt end back up in Scottsville till nearly 4 in the morning! It was a lot of fun. Saturday I enjoyed sleeping in and then I did some housework. Saturday night Jessica and I took a quick trip to Glasgow. I had to get some storage cubes for the new shelves I got for Emma and Zoie's toy room. I also picked up a few things at Walmart then we decided to eat cheap and headed to Long John Silver's (which is one of my all time favorites! I miss the one we use to have in town!) where we used one of my fabulous buy one get one free coupons, you just cant beat a deal like that! HAHA. I have been trying to get some use out of the coupon book my grandpa bought for a fundraiser...it has really been coming in handy lately. After our trip to Glasgow we stopped by a friends house, and hung out for awhile, then we went back to my house and gossiped, etc. until the early hours of the morning again. Sunday I was very lazy...then the girlies finally came home! I started another long work week on Monday...and unfortunately Zoie woke up sick yesterday morning. I took her up to Linda's and she tested negative for strep. They said it could be too early to actually test positive since she just woke up with the symptoms so they gave her an antibiotic because she had all the other symptoms. Last night she was also sick with diarhea and she vomitted a few times yesterday also. She had a fever this morning but seemed to be doing a little better. I decided to go on in to work because my grandma said she would be fine keeping her even though she was sick. I am hoping she is eating better today and drinking more fluids. As long as she will drink the pedialite she will be okay and not get dehydrated. I just hope Emma doesnt come down with it but I am sure she will. My sister went home sick with a stomach ache and headache this morning so its definitely going around because she stayed the night with us Sunday and Monday. I will just keep my fingers crossed and hope Emma and I get lucky and do not get it. I guess I have been lucky though because this is only the second time Zoie has been sick enough to get an antibiotic since she was born. Well I need to get back to these silly third graders. Until next time...

BoReD!

Today I am subbing at the primary center in a first grade classroom. I was originally suppose to do an ESS make up day today but yesterday I was pulled to sub for Ms. Gregory and I knew she probably wouldnt be back today so I pretty much volunteered to sub in here again. Her class is really good and I know their schedule so I figured I might as well be in here. Plus, I get to do 2 ESS make up days in April to make up for yesterday and today which is more money for me! I am loving working everyday...I mean, dont get me wrong, I love to stay home with the girls but is great to be making some good money these days. I am making way more than I anticipated on making when I started subbing so hopefully I wont have to work this summer. I just wish I could find a job for next fall so then I wouldnt have to worry about that! There I go...worrying about the job situation again...I am beginning to think it is totally impossible to NOT worry about it. So as for that...nothing new is really going on. My life basically consists of the same thing every week. I go to work, spend time with the girlies and that is about it really. Tonight I am making spagetti and my mom is coming over for supper. It has been awhile since I cooked for the family. We have been going out moms more lately...it is nice to get out of the house. I cant wait till it warms up and the girls can play outside everyday. I know how much they love being outside. I am thinking about getting them a playhouse once school gets out and I am at home with them more. I was wanting to get it for their birthday but since that is so late in the summer I want to get it early so they can play with it all summer long. I also want to get them a sand box but I am worried they might want to eat the sand. One of those plastic picnic tables is also going to be necessary because I have a feeling we will be having lunch outside alot. I hope they like to go swimming because that is also something I plan on doing with them once it gets warm. I have so much I want to do this summer, I just cant wait! It seems like winter lasts forever these days! Im hoping by spring break the weather will be a lot nicer out. It has finally warmed up a little bit today. I think the kids will get to go out for recess which will be nice and hopefully Im right and I dont have duty! I mean, its warmer but not warm enough for me! It has to be at least 70 degrees outside for me to want to go outside and actually stay out. Well I guess its time for me to get to my last reading group for the day. Until next time...

Why?

Why is everybody so worried about me having a boyfriend or dating? It seems like everybody has been on my case lately and I just dont understand. I am not concerned with it so why is everybody else? Just because I dont get out much and I am at home so much does not mean that there is something wrong with me...I like my new house, so I like to spend time at home and guys are nothing but a headache. Im tired of putting myself out there and getting hurt over and over again. When it is time for me to find a guy I will, but I am not in a hurry! I do joke around with my friends and ask them if they know any good single guys but Im not really concerned if I date or not. Things happen when they are meant to happen. Anyways, enough of my ranting and raving. Life is good and that is all that matters right now. I am extremely content with how everything is going...even though I am always worried about the job situation which I need to stop stressing over because that is obviously not getting me anywhere! I just hope that saying is true, "good things happen to those who wait." I have a great family, great friends, and everything else in life is also great, so why worry? It is better to live in the present than the past or worry about the future...there are somethings in life that we cant change. Well I have a lot more to say but Ill have to do that later...maybe tonight if I get time. Until next time...
