Not only a "quote" but a point well taken!!!!!

Whatever you give a woman, she's going to multiply.

If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby.
If you give her a house, she'll give you a home.
If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal.
If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart.

She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her.

So - if you give her any crap, you will receive a ton of shit.

So my kids started school on Tuesday. Tuesday went well because I was cleaning the house and trying to get ready for bunco. It was at my house this month. Wednesday was kind of boring. I did nothing all day. Thursday I was determined that I was going to be productive. My brother-in-law, Boyce, gave me some plums to take home. I still had a lot left and I didn't want them to go bad so I made a plum crumble. Then I was outside with the dog playing fetch. I wondered if there were still some blackberries left on the bush. I walk down there and there were a ton of them. I picked enough to make a blackberry crumble. The plum one came out good but the blackberry one was kind of bland. I don't think I will use that recipe again. I need to find a better one. Last night we had our first parent meeting at Emerald's school. Guess what? They made me the President!! I am excited. Stan is off today so I think we are going to shoot the guns.

Love you all!!

I can't believe it. I have been crying all day. I was talking to Stan today on the phone when I was at the store and I was crying. He asked me what I was going to do next year when he turned eighteen. I said cry some more. I don't know why I am crying. Maybe because he is growing up. Maybe because he is going into the National Guard. Maybe because he towers over most everybody now.

My mom seeing Travis for the first time in three years.

This is my mother seeing him for the first time in three years. He was slouched down and then he slowly stood up. You should've seen her face as he kept raising...lol. It was funny. Keep in mind that I am only an inch taller than my mom.

It just seemed like that seventeen years went by fast. I know that it took seventeen years but where did it go. I am sitting here trying to remember everything. It is hard. He came out of me, I nursed him, and now he is going to be a junior in high school and he is joining the National Guard. I am crying again, DAM IT!!!

Ok, I have to stop.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my wonderful son. I am so proud of you and I love you very much!!

Mom is finally here. I say that because her plane was suppose to get here at 11 but there was an hour delay in Phoenix due to weather so her plane didn't get here until 12:15 or so.

So while we were waiting for Mom 's plane to get in there was a family waiting there that was from all different orgins. They were holding a sign that said "Welcome Home Mommy!!" I said to Kim that we should hav emade a sign. Then when the mom came in they were all hugging and Kim started to cry. It was cool to watch. So again while we were waiting kim found a piece of paper in her pocketbook. She said that this was going to be our sign. What should we right? We all came up with "It's about time Mummy!!" lol It was funny. We finially got back to Kim's house at around 2:30. We all wanted to visit but we went to bed instead. So now we are sitting here visiting. I am just so excited that we are all together finially!!

I'll write more later.

I am at Kim's House. I got here last night around 7:30. It was nice to get here in the light. Usually we get here after dark. Travis drove half way. That was nice also, Having another driver in the car. It makes the trip not so tiring.

Mom gets in in 2 days and a wake up, I can't wait!!

Tomorrow I am heading to Kim's House and then my moms gets there on Monday night. I can't wait to see everybody!! This will be the longest that I have ever stayed at her house. I am not leaving there until Sunday the 31st. I like going to Kim's. It is so relaxing. Emerald didn't want to go and I told her that I didn't care what she wanted she was going. She is mad at me. I don't even care.

So this week both of the kids are at bible camp. It is nice. I don't think that Stan and I have ever had the house to ourselves for this long. Last night was parent’s night, so Stan and I drove down there. On the way there Stan asked me if I thought that the kids would be happy to see us. I told him that Travis would but I don't know about Emerald. We get there and Em could care less that we are there but Travis came running to us and spent the whole time with us while we were there. He should us his cabin and everything. When it was time to eat, Em and her friends just walk by us and didn't even acknowledge us. Then Trav came in, got his food, and came right to us. Even his friends sat with us. It was cool. We went to worship and he sat with us then also. When we left he gave me a hug and told us he loved us. Em just waved. I don’t know about her sometimes. She drives me crazy!!

I posted a blog on myspace and she got mad. The post was called I've come to realize.... and she got mad at #8 which said….I've come to realize that money...makes my daughter happy....but she hasn't realized yet that we don't have any! She was like great mom….now my friends are going to know that we are poor.

Ok, so everybody has pet peeves...this is mine.

In some states it is against the law to talk or texted on your cell phone while you are driving, so we try not to get caught...lol. Well I think that there should be a law against using a lap top while you are driving also. A COP almost hit me yesterday because he was on his lap top, probably looking someone up or something. He looked at me and nodded with a smile. I should write letter and get a law passed about that. Joanna, will you help me write a letter...lol

Love you all!!

I had to post this! I love this routine!! If you know anything about dancing, then this routine will hit you the same way it hit me. I want to cry everytime I watch it.

Let me know what you think!!

I don't know where to start. I don't know what to say. I am sitting here wondering what to write. Should I write about my life? Should I write about my children? Should I write about my feelings? I just don't know. When I have something to say to somebody I usually just call them. I like talking on the phone then writing about it. I am tired and I should go to bed. I bet that there is going to be at least two people that are going to be surprised to see this. I wonder if they will comment on blogging...lol.

I am going to bed. Maybe I will think of something to write about in my dreams. :-)
