Spring Break!!!

I know that spring break is a time that everyone looks forward to every year just like summer. I know my kids do and I am happy for them to get some time off to sit at home and complain about how bored they are and call me at work and bitch and complain.

My question is....when are we going to get a "break"?? I have had several friends ask me if I was going to take off with my kids for spring break and my answer is "HELL NO, I see them in the evenings every day and on the weekends." Why should I take off to spend more time with them...that is why I have a job in the first place. FREE TIME....

My suggestion is all parents should get a "Parent's Break", one week out of every year to take off and do nothing while the kids are at school....this is not to be confused with "Vacation" because don't we all usually take vacation to do things with the family? Us parents need a break too!!!! It should be manditory for all companies to give one week off for "parent's break"....I'm just suggesting!!!

P.S. Please don't get me wrong I love my kids but they drive me CRAZY!!!!

Love, MOM

American Idol!!

A little switch up last night putting the guys first but that made me happy because I disagree with Simon and I think the guys are much better than the girls this year!!! Hope Crystal Bowersox is ok and she gets to perform tonight because she is my favorite in the girls!!!

Last night was MUCH MUCH better than last week!!!

Love Jermaine Sellers and his green dinosaur onesie… I need to get my husband one of those because he is always complaining about it being cold in my house. With that said, I think he needs to go home….he's not the best singer and keeps picking the wrong songs!!
Also think that Tim Urban should go home this week…cute kid and he can sing but he won’t win, send him home!!!!

My favorite this week and might end up being my favorite over Andrew is Lee DeWyze!! I love his voice and he reminds me of someone but I just can’t put my finger on it…. I don’t know if he looks like someone or if it is his voice but I just can’t figure it out….help me!!!!!



One more thing....Idol isn't the same this year because I don't have Laurie to talk to. I use to get up the morning after idol and couldn't wait to get to work so we could talk about our favorites and of course who SUCKED but Laurie and I do not work together anymore :( and I am sad. Guess we'll have to have a few idol parties!!!! Miss you Laurie!!
On a Positive note....I have my best friend Roxy addicted now!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!

OH and Casey sucked last night!!! Sorry girls!

Spoke too Soon!!!!!

I guess I spoke too soon when I said that Febuary was going good, Guess I couldn't have finished out the month like that though, right!!!! So while coming back from lunch on Thursday last week, Feb 25th (the date will matter in a minute), my clumsy ass falls down the stairs in the parking garage!! Before you start to cry, I am ok.....I banged up my knee a little and thought I broke my toe but I am ok...a few bruises and the feeling like someone beat me up but that is about it!!! I think I am use to that by now.

SO I said the date will matter, this is why. Last night by daughter, MaKayla, points out to me that on January 25th I fell in the shower (broken rib) and when I fell down the stairs was also the 25th.....WTF!!! So I have decided that on March 25th I am going to stay in bed all damn day!!!

Anyway, on to AMERICAN IDOL!!!! I was very disapointed last week, first in the competition and second in the judges. Are they just hearing totally different then what we are hearing?!?!?!? I won't go too much into it this week but I thought the girls did horrible and the guys a little better but not what I expected. I still think the guys are going to blow the girls away.


MY FAV is Andrew Garcia....I think he did great last week

Can't wait for this week!!!

HELLO!!!!

Hello All,

It's been a while since I have posted and for that I apologize!!! I figure since my friend, we won't name any names (roxy), emailed me and told me that my blog sucked I better get to it....

It is an understatement to tell you that things have been CRAZY in my life. Here is a little rundown to get you caught up!!!

• got my job back
• END of 2009!!!!

January:

• New job starts.....LOVE IT!!!
• Dallas Cowboys Game in Dallas...Roxy and I had an AWESOME weekend!!
• ER visit - ruptured cyst....VERY BAD pain and sick for a week & 1/2
• Slipped and fell in shower....broke my rib and sprained my thumb, OUCH!!!
• My birthday...HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me.....I'm 29!!!!

Febuary:

• Let's just say that I haven't broken any bones or been to the doctor yet so it's been a good month....BUSY and CRAZY but good!!! I have learned alot about myself this month. Things are looking UP!!!

Ok, so now that I have given you the rundown and you are caught up I will try to keep up from now on. TONIGHT is American idol and I am VERY excited!!! Will blog about that tomorrow!!!

See Ya

Are you Ready?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I am ready for 2010 for MANY reasons but one thing I am VERY excited about coming up in January is......are you ready???? AMERICAN IDOL!!!!

I am a BIG American Idol fan....I can't wait for a new season and something to take my mind off of this very crazy end to 2009. Laurie, you better get ready for the late night phone calls since we can't talk about it at work!!!

In the meantime here is a video from American Idol winner David Cook...he is amazing and this proves it. This is him singing "Lie" on the Carrie Underwood Holiday Special and to me, this was the entire show....WAY better then anything else or anyone else on the show!!!! This gives me chills!!!

Crazy....but Blessed end to 2009!!!!

Ok, I know it's been a while since I posted anything. It's been a VERY crazy last couple of months. Lots going on with the holidays plus family and my job turned upside down. I pray that things start to slow down and my life starts to fall back into place. One VERY good thing...I know I have mentioned my son Blayne who was diagnosed with a rare form of childhood cancer in June of 2007. Well on the 10th we went to Texas Children's Hospital for his 4 month check up and scans. It was confirmed he has been 2 years CANCER FREE!!!! Hearing that just makes all my other problems just go away...after having a very bad couple of weeks and more to come I feel very blessed.

Now we are ready for a new year!!! Bring on 2010 and another year of NO MORE CANCER!!

GO Blayne....you are my ROCK!!!

Snow Day!!

OMG hold on to your hat, Snow 2 years in a row in Lumberton, Texas. I was born and raised here and from what I can remember it has NEVER snowed here...I know it has but not that I remember!!!! My kids love it!! I will have to find the pictures from last year because it was so beautiful!!! For now here are a few from today.
