Are you a Princess, Enchantress, Faerie, Mermaid or Toad?

You are an Enchantress, somewhat an enigma,
you would love to change the world. You hold
strong views and, would love nothing more, to
use your magic to change the world around you.
When in conversation, you listen, take on their
comments, and fantasise how you could improve
things. Quite the idealist, you think you have
all the answers, whether for right or wrong.
You hold your intellect high, and believe you
can change the world! In a relationship, you
need a partner of high intellect.

The world
and you, often seems at odds, with you
frequently seeing things from a different point
of view.

You have a connection with nature,
often stating, that things will take their
natural course. Nevertheless, secretly, you
would like to use nature to your own
ends.

Your good points are that you are
intelligent, instigative and thoughtful and
your bad points are, you can be single-minded,
misled and remorseless.

You feel that your
superior knowledge should astound everyone
around you; and you wish for respect from your
peers.

As I love faeries so much, I had to take this cute little quiz. It jad a lot of close points. lol I'm definitely not single minded, misled, or remorseless!

Sad today

My Dad called me this morning to let me know that my Great-aunt Vivian passed away yesterday. We found out a few weeks ago that she had Leukemia and wasn't going to fight it. She was in her late 90's and lived a very good life. She was a great lady and I will miss her a lot. I'm glad she went peacefully instead of the disease taking her slowly and painfully. It's going to be a long week helping my Mom and my kids through this.

I'm glad you are free of pain Aunt Vivian. We love you!

Still stuffed up

but atleast it's getting better. The kids are adjusting to school being out. I've actually gotten to sleep in and catch up from being up late studying. My oldest makes breakfast in the morning and that is a welcome surprise! Only 1 week left and we are off to Mom's house for the 4th! WOOHOO, can't wait. I've told hubby that I'm seriously considering skipping school on the 1st so we can leave on Friday when he gets home. lol I'm so excited to see them and to have nothing to do for 4 whole days. Ahhhhh, it's what is keeping me sane right now.

No more kleenex!

I swear my nose is going to fall off soon. My allergies have been horrible for the last 4 days. The weather has been nice and the dogs are shedding. Mandy (golden) has clumps of hair all over the house and backyard. Yuck! Match that with the dust from having the windows open and my house is seriously killing me. I didn't think I would make it through class yesterday. I have serious doubts about it tonight. lol I'm deep cleaning the frontroom right now. So that ought to make me worse before it gets better. Good thing we have friends coming over this weekend to appreciate this clean house. I hate to clean it all for just us. lol

The joys of quizes

When classes started I thought it sucked that we have a quiz every week in Kinesiology. Boy was I wrong. It's easy to remember we have one, lmao, and it means I can get the info out of my head and move on to the new material. Not so with my anatomy/phys, excercise phys or nutrition. Oh no, I have to look at the syllabus and figure out what is due or what class is having a test. So studied and felt great about know the info for the quiz today. Only to get to school and have studied for the wrong class! Holy crap, I haven't even looked at the other stuff since class on monday. We had a good review and I know I passed it, but there might have went my perfect record on the tests. Darn it!

On a positive note, the other test is next week sometime and I will be so ready for it! Bring it on! lol

School's sinking in

I'm still not on a schedule of any kind, and I'm still not happy with my study habits. lol But I'm not feeling so overwhelmed tonight. There are throwing a ton of information at us at once. But, I'm trying to remember, that we don't need to remember all of it. Just study the key points and it will all be good. I even overdid my homework today. Now I have all the questions answered for my practice test. lol

K, boring post, I know. But, it's 11:15 and I just got home from school. My brain is still processing.

Ok, fun note. We bought the ECW pay-per-view yesterday and watched with a couple of friends. Good lord it was lame. We were all excited, thinking they might go out in true hard core ECW fashion. Nope, lame. It was my beloved WWE, minus the drama, minus the people that can speak complete sentences, and minus the beautiful bodies. lol I was very disappointed and am pissed that it we wasted our $35 on it! Thankfully I will have my Batista to watch here in a couple of weeks in Hell in the Cell.

There was that more exciting;)

Backburner

Well, it looks like just about everything will be put on the backburner while I adjust to school. Many things will be waiting a year to be done correctly. lol It's just going to be a lot more of a time commitment than I had thought. Plus, I really do need to sleep. lol I'm a natural born "sleeper" so this 5 or 6 hours a night doesn't cut it. I took a nap after the kids went to school today, but they get out in a couple of weeks. I better start planning around this now. I'm working on getting more organized:)

What desperate housewife are you?

Yep, it's a cheesy quiz for my beloved cheesy show. lol


Congratulations! You are Susan Mayer, the divorcee
and single mom who will go to extraordinary
lengths for love.

First day of school

Nothing like jumping right into things. First night of school and we go right for the jugular: Kinesiology. Hmm, one of the major reasons I didn't go into this profession back 13 years ago at the university. Bring it on! My mind is full right now, but it's not overwhelming YET. lol I love my instructor, she created the program for the school. Very hands on oriented. Just my way of learning. Tomorrow we meet the other instructor. I'm sure if they work this closely together, than she has to be pretty cool to. I'm happy I'm doing this and I think that in itself is a big step.

I'm still not happy about the mid-term on July 5th though. I made sure and told her that. lmao She proceded to tell me it was open book. lol A little better, but still, come on!

Longest Yard

Hubby and I went and watched it on opening night. It was even better than I thought it would be. There were so many names. We were really excited to see 3 of our favorite wrestlers in it. They haven't been around for over a year. Well, Stone Cold has been, but not Goldberg or Big Daddy Cool! Those guys are so HOT! It was great to get out with hubby and throw a few beers back, then go to the movies. We had a great ADULT conversation time. Talking about nothing in particular. lol We so need more days like this! Life is just so complicated once you have to be parents. ARGHHHHHHH!

Movie Memes,

got hit by my buddies Chrissie and Retta, but my problem is I don't know any other bloggers to pass it to but you guys! lol


1) Total number of films I own on DVD/video: I'm addicted to buying the previously viewed from hollywood video now. But, I'm curbing the addiction well. We only own 77ish. Not sure what the neighbors have borrowed, or what's in the kids rooms. lol

2) The last film I bought: ladder 49 for hubby

3) The last film I watched: Metallica "some kind of monster" Will be adding it to my collection tomorrow!

4) Five films that I watch a lot or that mean a lot to me (in no particular order):)

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
XXX
Fast and the Furious
What about Bob?
Chronicles of Riddick (I know, there's a definite pattern there. lol)

5) Tag 5 people to post this in their blog journal: K, i've thought and thought, but I don't have anyone to hit with this:(

School Orientation

Well, I went tonight for my orientation. I don't feel old and dumpy anymore. There was way worse than me there. I know I will be fit as a fiddle by this time next year, not sure about some of the others. lol But, that's being pretty judgemental, so I suck. My bad. I have a mid-term on July 5th. That is going to seriously cut into my beer drinking that weekend:( We are going over to spend the weekend with my in-laws. I haven't partied with Mom in many months. I miss her! I guess I will have to study hard during the day. Mom won't let me not drink with her. lol Did I mention I miss my mother-in-law? Oh, I guess I did. I know, I'm a freak we are good friends. But, hey next time marry into the right family :) roflmao

To work or not?

This is the question. One of the girls owes me for working this weekend on 2 of my days off. My dilemma is: Take a day off and get some stuff done around here, or make as much money as possible since I will be going back to school next week and on a limited work schedule. What to do, what to do? Tuesdays are usually so slow there.

working on website

Boy am I going to be sorry tomorrow. I'm up way to late looking at this code. But, I'm on a roll. 2 pages of new products added. Woohoo! I'll post when I have them uploaded to the host. Thankfully hubby is home in the morning and can get up to make the kids breakfast. My sugar free red bull is waiting in the fridge for my sorry butt.

Star Wars Rocked!

I'm so ready to go and see it again! Back to old school wars. Great opening fighter scene. Great saber action, less mushy crappy love gunk. They took that way to far in #2. There are some graphic spots and the movie is very dark. But hey, we knew it would be. Did you not see #4? Duh, we know that everyone dies. If you are going to take your kids than I recommend reading this article. It has a couple of very slight spoilers, but if you're a true star wars fan then you knew what was coming anyway. This gave me a great heads up on what to warn my kids about and when I needed to throw my hands up over their eyes. lol All in all, no bad dreams yet and they both fell fast asleep.

I hope my brother sees it soon. I'm dieing to talk to someone about it! lol I think I need to go back and see it again next week by myself! It was sad at the end knowing there won't ever be another one made:( Can't Han and Leia have kids we watch, how about Luke's kids go bad and take over the universe? Come on, give us more!

Off to see star wars

first thing in the morning. I waited way to long to get tickets to the midnight show tonight. So bummed. But the kids will play hooky from school in the morning and we'll be there bright and early! I so can't wait. Bummed that it's the last one:( I will of course give my opinion on it tomorrow!

Won a contest

So I subscribed to this cool websites update newsletter, and I won. Then I got a few choices of what I wanted. Hmm, hard decision, but I'll go with the Mango Body Butter. I've been going tanning and it's good for after that. I get it in the mail and opened it at work. I ran around making everyone use it. lol I was so hungry for a smoothie. It smells exactly like Mangos. We have mangos for our smoothies at work, so I know this for fact. And the texture...to die for. Usually body butters are waxy, but not this. It was like putting my fingers into a jar of whipped butter. Goes on smooth and feels silky. It doesn't wash off immediately like some other products do. I can't wait to order some more products from her. She's made a major customer! Pamper yourself Mom! www.bathandbodycorner.com

And the rain, rain, rain

came down, down, down in rushing rising rivelets. Typical Washington weather this weekend and for the whole week I guess. Nothing to do but clean the house I guess. I can see my weeds getting taller and taller, but atleast I have a good excuse for not digging them up right now. lol

Yesterdays luck was just as bad as Fridays. With the exception that the kids acted worse than ever. I was very ready to sell them off to the lowest bidder! It was one of those days that you are glad you have to go to work. Let Daddy deal with the hellions. lmao But today, they are totally different kids. They even helped each other clean their rooms before we woke up this morning. I guess the aliens must have come and switched them out for us overnight. Thanks guys! :)

Retail therapy

I was in serious need of the new retail therapy I've learned from my best friend. But alas, it didn't work. I only had time to go to one store and there was nothing for me. I got a pair of denim capris and a tshirt. :( But I found a ton for the rest of the family. So now my therapy will have to be moved to the mall. I'm also scheduling a day at the salon next week. I think my ear is infected from my new piercing too.

I always have great luck on Friday the 13th, but today sucks! I've had little thing upon little thing go wrong today. This is always my favorite day. My favorite/lucky number is 13. It's a no good, very bad, awful day. I'm off to eat some worms. Worms from the tequila that is!

Mother's quiz

Ok, sorry if it's getting tiring. But, I've been going through blogexplosion so much and finding tons of info. So here's a cute and timely quiz to take. Loved my results!

You're a girl power mommy! You love to be girly,
but you're no pushover. Your kids are learning
that gender differences don't have to mean
gender inequality. You've taken back pink, and
you don't care who knows it!


What kind of a freaky mother are you?
