Yesterday went pretty well. We cleaned the house like mad and I hosted a Mary Kay party. It went pretty well and was fun. My house still looks good. lol

Today we are going to a birthday party. Actually there are two birthday parties and they kinda conflict with each other. But we will get it figured out. Hopefully today will be a good day.

More later.....

Update

Well the eggs are all done. Dyed, stickers on and back in the fridge. I just hope is doesn't snow like crazy tonight so we can actually hide them.

Ugh!

I am so done! You would think that some things would be a priorty. But I guess not. You know have dinner at a decent hour and be able to dye eggs before bedtime. I wanted to wait until Joe wasn't working. He didn't work today. We always do the eggs after dinner and Sammy goes to bed at 7. So how does he expect all to be done before bedtime when he is going to a friends house to get tires. You think he would be right back? No. Some things are more important than bull shitting.

A bad day

Today was one of those days. Again. I'm pretty tired of it. I haven't figured out what triggers it but I just woke up pissed as good be. I have decided to to try and make myself write here daily just so I can't vent and get it all out good or bad. Anna totally irked me the moment she walked up this morning. Actually she irked me before she woke up. I am so sick of my living room being a wreck. You would think that after me asking and telling her over and over again to make sure all of her stuff and the babies stuff is picked up she would do it. I really think it is the least she could do being that she is living here free and all she is supposed to do is do the few things that are asked of her. She laid on a guilt trip the other day that she is a single mother and it is just so hard. Don't give me that crap! You have so much support in this house and she has nothing to worry about other than her own personal drama that she brings on herself. She doesn't work, she doesn't go to school. WTF!

The boys have been on one today. Just buggin' constantly. Mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, ugh. So Joe gets home for work in a pissy mood. Then I'm trying to talk to him and he just walks away when I'm in the middle of a sentence to go talk to the neighbor. I'm fucking over it. Now he wants me to tell him what I was saying, but I just don't feel like it.

Well, lets see what the night brings me.

I also did a few pages...

More challenges at scrapbooking challenges

I made a card!! Oh my!

I think it's cute. I haven't made anything in quite awhile. So it's not bad. It was a challenge at scrapbook challenges.

2009 Lincoln County Relay For Life

So here are the final numbers from the 2009 Lincoln County Relay For Life!

Grand Total: $27,523.08
Survivors: 88
Relay Store: right about $1000
Rummage sale: right about $500

I am really thrilled about these numbers! Considering our low teams. I am pretty sure next years Relay will be held Friday August 6th 2010! I would love to have our over all theme to be Sports to encourage more games at the Relay. Please let me know what you all think about this. I have tons of ideas.

Lets hit my goal of 30 teams this coming year. I hope to get out all info out to you as soon as possible.

Have a most wonderful day!

OMG!

I'm 32 years old and when I'm 33 I might be a grandmother. I think I am a horrible parent if I can't instill good morals and priorities.

No follow through with me! lol

I was supposed to be writing a journal on here and I jsut haven't kept up with it. I was supposed to be adding my scrap pages and I just haven't done any. Maybe one day I will get off my butt and do it.

Freedom Writers

Have you watched the movie Freedom Writers? I have, many times, and I LOVE it. I am now reading the book. I Love it too.

It really makes me think that I really should put my feelings, my life, my thoughts all down. Whether it be here or in a journal of my own. I guess should do that. I'll start now...

I am Liz. I am 32 years old. I have a wonderful husband, and a bunch of kids. lol I try to be a good mother and wife. I do the best that I can.

I was born and raised in California. My mom is a wonderful person. She is a single parent. My mom and dad divorced when I was just 6 months old. She worked very hard to support me.

Dad is a "Disneyland Dad". He would take me camping, on trips to Disneyland and Hawaii. He was alot of fun. He got remarried and his new wife had a son. He was my brother. We had a ton of fun together getting into trouble, playing gi joes, and watching cartoons. We used to jump off the two story roof and into the pool then running to the hot tub. We were weird I think. lol We played in pavement while it was still warm, messing it up.

More later...

I'm about ready to give up!

Ok this is just blah blah blah but I am really getting frustrated and gggrrrrr!

So you all know that I am heavily involved with the local Relay For Life right? If not let me know and I will give you the full run down.

I have only gotten $20 in donations for my team. One other team member has done like $250 and my other team member has done $0. That is just not acceptable! Need to figure out how to get those numbers up!

Second I can not get my Team Captains to get on the ball and turn their paper work in so I can get the T-Shirt order in by tomorrow! It has to be in or I won't get the shirts in time. There is a time that has not even registared yet and I can't get ahold of them and I need their info too.

I just don't know what to do! I know part is my fault because I haven't hounded them the way I normally do but come on!

Any who, I'm done for now. Thanks for reading!

Today has been a day! Last night Team Captain meeting went well. Today I have to start the t-shirt order and get it in by tomorrow. It's gonna be fun! Next meeting is on the 22nd. We are down to 28 days till relay!

We had Sammy's Early Head Start home visitor come today. We made paper bag puppets. I can't believe how well he can cut with sissors now! She also did an ELAP. He is around the 36 month marker! He is only 28 months old! His language is up and he can do so many things that he wasn't able to do just a few months ago. I am such a proud mommy! We only have 8 months left of Early Head Start then we transition him to Head Start. We sure are going to miss her!

Yesterday we went to a social for Early Head Start and Sammy had a great time! We played out side and had lunch. Oh Yeah I am now on the Policy Council with them too. I am the secretary and tresurer. Gonna be a fun thing for me to do.

I don't really know what I'm gonna do for the rest of today. I'm not feeling in an up mood and would rather sit here and do nothing. But I have laundry to do and who knows what else.

Have a great day!
