Cinco de Mayo!

We had some exciting events around these parts today, lol. I was at work and my oldest was home, with instructions to walk to the school and then back home to get a feel for walking there. So around 10:40am, I got a phone call from a desperate screaming child. "MOM! SNAKE!!!! Mommy, come get me!!!" Yep, she met up with a snake on the trail. I had to haul tail home from work to get the damsel in distress. Poor thing. She was terrified. She says she will NEVER ask to walk to school again. I had to promise her pizza and ice cream. It must have worked, because she's at a friends house spending the night.

I'm working on my finals. I cannot decide what to write on my final essay. Is a 79.67% a passing grade? If so, I don't even have to turn in the final essay, lol. Does it show that I am completely burnt?

And with that, I am headed to bed. I'm hoping to fall asleep before midnight tonight.

G'nte.

I managed to get NOTHING done this weekend, lol

Well, not exactly nothing. I took my hunny to the airport on Saturday and then went to Carson City to hang out with my mother. We did a little shopping at one of my favorite local shops County Purr Farm. They were having a 20% off sale, so I grabbed some of the new My Minds Eye....Yummy!!! Then we had lunch at Chili's. And we did a little more shopping. My kid stayed with Grandma and I was FREE!!! But alas, well laid plans..... Anyway, I started putting away all my new goodies with intentions of joining some challenges at 2Peas, but I got the first phone call from the Hunny. Bad thunderstorms derailed his trip. I had to get on the phone to assure he was taken care once he actually got to Nashville. It kinda sucked, lol. But he finally got there around midnight my time. I didn't get to scrap. :( Today, I cleaned house and did laundry. Whoo-hoo!

I did make a discovery this weekend. Taco Bell's new taco salads. I have had them for dinner two nights in a row. Normally I despise Taco Bell. I don't even know what made me want to go there. Once I got there, I wasn't even sure what I wanted. So I decided to try the taco salad. I brought it home and literally wolfed it down, lol. It was SO GOOD!! So today I had to run to the dollar store and TB was right there. I tried it again. Still good! And my daughter said she wanted tacos for dinner tomorrow, so I asked if TB is okay...just so I can get another one. I know it's probably not good for me. I'll get over it soon enough, but you should really try it one night if you're looking for something quick and easy to eat. K- I'll shut up about the taco salad now. ;)

My other kidlets are at their dad's for their track break. I miss them. :( They called tonight and were happy that their grandparents had bought them some new toys. I'll have to wait and see if they are still happy in 21 days.

I've got another long week ahead. Work, Chiropractor visits, and the dreaded finals...... But at least school will be over soon enough. I am taking at least a semester off. I really need to find a real job. I like where I'm out for this temp job. I'd really like for it to work out for me to stay on permanently. Its a great group of people and the atmosphere is good. Maybe it'll work out. (It doesn't hurt that my boss likes scrapbooking, he he)

Okay well, I have to get to bed. I've got another long day tomorrow. Oh! I've got a proud Mama moment! My mini me is doing a cross stich. Granted its a pirates skull, but she's being crafty like her mama. I'm impressed. Of course I was helping her with it and now I wanna do one too. lol

G'nite!

National Scrapbooking Day - Got any plans?

I am trying very hard to get my act together for National Scrapbooking Day. I have two essays to finish, one chapter to read, and two quizzes to take before Friday. If I can get that done, I can spend most of Saturday just hanging out.

Take a gander over there:

<<<<--------------------------------

I'm a Stampin' Up rep now. lol. They've got some cool stuff. And new cool stuff coming out in July. Oh! And starting May 1st, their paper packs are buy 3 get 1 free. I'm getting:

Rainbow Sherbet:

Rich Regals:

In Color:

And something for free, lol. I'm too tired to look right now. But it's a great little deal I think.

Anyway, I'm headed to bed. Dog the Bounty Hunter is on and they're are in Hawaii at the airport. I want to be in Hawaii at the airport.....arriving for an extended vacation, lol. I've said it before, I'd live there if I could afford it. I keep dreaming about it.

Alrighty, I'm off here. G'nite!

Some good news!

I spoke to my friend last night and her daughter with the head trauma is eating on her own. I guess the nurses were spoon feeding her applesauce and Gracie took the spoon and fed herself! What a great day indeed!

We are off to the Girl Scout event, Uniquely Me! It's 5 hours long, but is supposed to be very fun and informative. We'll see. My son is not happy about it. But, I personally think he'd look cute in a pink feather boa.

Alrighty, I am getting off the laptop and fixing my hair. And I'm almost done cleaning, so I guess I should spend a hour wrapping that up.

See ya!
