ouch

I do not taste like chicken! I am not sweet like candy! No, that is not ketchup running off my hands and staining my khaki's. No my legs are not a kicking board and as far as my chest is concerned they are not pillows to head but. This all being said, "Yahoo only one more day of summer school!" I need a month off just to heal.

oohhh pretty

Thanks to Tween for making the blog pretty. One more week of summer school then a month long break, and a 2 month paycheck break (ouch!!) You need to work nearly a month before the paycheck comes. Stupid system.
Happy Father's Day to all the dads. We saved Hallmark from bankruptcy this month and handed out the gift cards. I swear that between the price of cards and gift wrap you could go broke. I think for all my sisters birthdays I am going to give each an assortment of wrapping paper, gift bags and cards.
As for the yard sale....not that successful. I think I cleared $100.00. I also had a Scensy party to attend for a friend right after that. Don't worry Laura I will still order Gold Canyon from you. Well time to go and get the kiddos ready for tomorrow!

My little Athletes

What an exhausting week! I have been working the summer school program for special needs children and though it is rewarding to see their progress at the same time, I need a vacation! Tween and I are doing well together this summer. She takes golf lessons and is a natural powerhouse. She honestly has the potential to go far in the sport. Here is the dilemma: Her coach said she would be 10 times farther if she would just focus and take it a little more serious. In the same sentence he said that she enjoys the game and has fun. So, do we push her toward success only to hate it later or let her continue to have "fun" and lose the opportunity to debut the natural talent she has? Is there a middle ground?
Toddler is taking swimming lessons at my mom's pool. He has a great instructor that totally has engulfed his love of learning and sports. My nephew and toddler are both becoming little fish. I need to just get my nieces over for a refresher course.
We are having a garage sale this Saturday so I am trying to get "my crap, your treasures" together for that. The money I make from it goes to our Vegas fund. I received 3 comp nights at the Monte Carlo so I am off without the kiddos in July. We want to see Keith Urban and the blue man group. I am searching for deals there since we gave up credit cards. Off to make dinner.

Mom's Turn

My hope with this blog is to give "tween" a constructive outlet to develop and a suggestion board on how to deal...It takes a village after all. In defense of her brother, "toddler", he just loves her to pieces. His arrival when she was nearly nine ruptured her only child syndrome. Tough. FYI... I will be monitoring all posts and comments daily, so please keep them appropriate.
