A New Day, A New Year!

2009 - So many changes are going to happen this year. So many happened last year too. What is the difference? I have a child getting married this year. That is huge! That is exciting! I have many more blood tests and treatments to get. That is scarey! I worry about everything and everyone. I must in this year have more faith. Is that possible? It has to be.

Headlights

Driving at night has always been something people complain about. It bothered me during rain. Now it bothers me more. Especially with all the new fangled headlights out there. I just wish that people would leave well enough alone sometimes.

Department of Education in NJ is NUTS!!!!

Just my opinion - When an educator works their entire life helping to mold the brains of little ones: they damn well deserve at least a plaque!! Shame on you Department of Education in the state of New Jersey - I am ashamed!

Some of Jersey's Adventures

I'm back - again! So much has happened while I was gone so hopefully I can get my act together and blog more often. "Jersey", my little terror is growing up. 8 months old this week. She enjoyed the sprinkler so much we bought her a little pool. She has her own hose that she puts into her mouth and runs all over the yard with. This week found her at the top of the stairs. She has never gone up the stairs before. "D" greeted me on the front porch when I got home from work around 5pm. That worried me. She told me of Jersey going upstairs, (at 10 am) and that she was still there. "D" told me of everything that she did to try and get Jersey down, all with NO luck. Doggie bones on every step, "D" pretending that she fell down the stairs, ringing the doorbell, nothing worked. As it was when I got here it took the two of us 20 minutes to get her down. Down she did come me pulling "D" pushing and Jersey belly sliding on all of the stairs.

Enjoy the pic's.

I Am Fit To Be Tied!!!! :(

I am sooooooo angry. Microsoft had 8 downloads, so I did them. Now I cannot get into my Yahoo email. Family cannot get into hotmail email. If that isn't enough the screen keeps flashing while I am typing this and everything looks like it is in outer space. So I guess the computer doctor is getting a visit from me. I may not be on for a bit. Wish me luck.

Guess Where I'm Going?

I opened the email and that is what it said - nothing else. Oh the thoughts that went thru my mind. To a job interview, to purchase a ring, to a shopping spree, to buy a car, to get a puppy? What? So of course I emailed back. No answer. Mind you I am at work. So I call. No answer. Finally during my lunch the phone rings. I get my answer. Kimberly and Keith are going to Hawaii in July. My excitement for them is there. Now I can just worry about that long plane ride. Motherhood never ends.

Opinions

Everyone has them. One person may have more than the next person but believe me everyone does have them. I said that one of my New Years resolutions was going to be not to give my opinion out. Guess what? It didn't work! I really did try but I just couldn't do it. I will say that I have held back and quite frankly have been extremely proud of myself when I did. I find that a person may not like "your" opinion but they will definitely think about it. In my opinion, giving your opinion is somewhat like being truthful without being hurtful.
