Just my daily rant and rave today!

What a weekend - it was one big time scorcher! It was supposed to chill off a bit by today but it is stilllllll says 101 degrees on the dash of my truck!!! I think the temperature outside is directly proportional to 2 things - 1) the amount of bitching and fighting that commences between the girls and 2) the amount of patience I have for any other human being - mainly said children! The hotter it gets the more the girls fight thus getting on my nerves and the more I want to beat someone! Right now I am not working so I am with them 24-7... I think somehow I got the raw end of the deal here... first I divorce and have the kids to myself ALL the time - then I have Dan who is wonderful when he is home - helps with the kidos and dinner and such... but I envy him going to work everyday LMAO! I miss working! You know I never thought that about any other job that I have had. I loved the office positions but after about 6 months I got so bored with it and there always seemed something about the job that I was fed up with by that time - I didnt want to work there anymore... But this job with the school district - yeah it is school bus driving and for some reason a good portion of my friends tease me occasionally about - but I really have come to enjoy it. Wondering if I will want to go to a different job once I complete my degree in a year or so... I am sure I will find something by then to complain about and move on - I am good at that. Only thing that has seemed to survive any length of time recently is my relationship with Dan. Hmmmm maybe things are going to last - I had hoped for that...

PHHHEEEEWWWWWIIIIIIEEEEEEE!

Well today was a 'do nothing' day... to darn hot for anything else. I did go to the gym - just felt the need to sweat ten times more than before hahaha! The girls didnt even want to go outside and John stayed in to play the X-Box! John finally got tired of the girls pestering him and it was convenient that his friends came over to tell him they have the pool set up... at least this time he thought enough ahead to get the sunscreen! When I moved back to Oregon from Texas I thought I had left the whole 'arm pit of hell' behind but it looks like it followed me up later - and they say it is going to hang around until the beginning of next week... someone email me a huge block of ice so I can sit on it!

Is it really bloggin?

Ok this whole blogging thing is pretty new to me. I have a myspace profile and on there you can post your blogs. Most people use it to post answers to silly '50 questions' or jokes that they want to pass on to their friends. No one really uses it for journaling or 'deep thoughts'. I have been looking through some of the blogs on this site... just sort of going to 'the next' and 'the next' to get some ideas of how different people use their sites. I have found a good portion of people use them as a journal site - some on just about any subject that comes to mind, some as a day to day accounting of funny happenings, some to track their travels through the world. But I have also seen several others, (enough for me to think what the hell) who use it to basically post regurgitated crap. Mostly just posting celebrity news with a few pics thrown in the mix. It is like they have gone to yahoo's celebrity news page and just cut and pasted... so my question is - Is this really blogging by everyone else's standards? And why would anyone take the time to do this when the whole idea of blogs seems to be to share your thoughts and feelings on a vast array of subjects? Anyone can go to Yahoo to see who is divorcing who and who has the 'pregnancy bump'... I tend to be a pretty critical person - pointing out the 'huuuu?'s' in life... maybe I should have been a critic or a columnist!

Happy 34th!

Well today is my hunny's birthday! I feel a little bad tho - I was so groggy this morning when he got up and left for work I didnt tell him happy birthday... I am planning to take him and the guys at work some cupcakes... he will like that. Unfortunately I have a man who hates to be fussed over - he doesnt want me to get him anything present wise, nothing special. But I am a fusser! I love to do things for other people... especially him. I know he appreciates it but I think it embarrasses him some. I want to get him something for a present but what do you get the guy who has just about everything and anything else he might want is expensive!? Uggggg he is frustrating! Maybe I will just resign myself to a nice dinner and a good ole fashioned pampering!

Howdy everyone!

Well this is my first hello to everyone! I think I will get the hang of this blog thing. My friend Kaytee sent me a link to her page and said I should start one... it is a good way to have an online journal. Works for me. I guess this one is a 'test' post to see what happens. I suppose I will probably add more laters!
