short & sweet

*I have zero photos because I'm not taking any.
*I made due on a promise to my teenager and activated my old iPhone to give him. He's now 'official' in the laws of all 8th graders and he loves to text me all morning till he enters school, where he has to turn it off and tuck it away to the minute he gets out of school & walks in the door. I know he's using me to 'look cool', but I'll take his blow by blow texts with excitement and enthusiasm. I'm sure he won't be texting me the low down that the school bus has arrived to pick him up very much long.
*He babysat for the neighbors and made some good $ last night and he did really well. I was very proud of him.
*I'm dragging my family to Orlando tomorrow and the kids can't wait to see their auntie & uncle and we are hitting a park on Friday to join up with Colleen and family....I can't wait.
*This family needs to have fun. There's enough $hit going on down here that I'm asking all company to bring a shovel when they visit. ;0) just keeping it real.
*It's gonna be a fun filled weekend for us all. J is headed to 'The Shoe' to cheer the Buckeyes on this weekend!
*Panic attacks.....yeah, it's a new thang for me. Today I had one while I was running on the treadmill and realized that Friday was 9/11 and I had made plans to do D*sney. J talked me down, but I'm still nervous. I've had several others recently, all while working out....it's the oddest thing. Working out is my stress relief, so why is all this surfacing while doing the thing that makes me feel the best?
*I'm up to 9 1/2 miles Mon-Fri....why do I not look like a super model? Between the mileage and the juicing, I feel better than I've ever felt.
*We used to have a few bunnies that hopped around our yard, now they are everywhere. Those suckers sure do multiply.
*I need a way to keep Ems out of the dog bowls...poor Kita dog, she's yet to eat or drink in peace.
*My fabulous neighbors are flying out this week to bring their daughter, Jaylee, home. She did a call in to a congressional hearing regarding the CDC rules for TB and gave a speech. She just got word today that the CDC plans on changing their laws for international adoption regarding the TB rules. I'm so proud of her for sticking it out this long and working to change this for all the families that follow her.
