happy new year.

It's not that I don't feel he got what he deserved. I just think it's disgusting when people celebrate someone's death. Death is death regardless of the circumstances.

Back From Ky............

...........we had a lovely visit. We all were spoiled, especially Xander. The weather was fantastic for the most part. We were able to visit with everyone and Xander even has several new words: one being baby bull! It's cute. It's good to be home and getting ready for next year.

More Xander!

Memories.....

Remember when he was this big? He was so sweet.

Should I Feel Bad?

I kind of feel bad about putting a t.v in Xander's room:

We gave in and brought the small t.v into Xander's room. Weak, I know. We thought it would remedy the fact that Cars plays 24 hours a day in the living room, and he doesn't even watch it half the time! Unfortunately, now Cars plays in the living room and Bob The Builder takes turns with Thomas The Tank Engine playing in his room. Again, he doesn't even watch it! He just wants it on. This pic is from the first nite he had the t.v in his room. Believe me, the facination peetered out.

I don't feel bad at all that Tony's sister had her baby and I feel nothing. Could care less:

I might try to fake excitement for Tony's sake, but that's just not me. He can be excited all he wants. I seriously don't care. I felt a twinge of uncomfortableness, but it passed when I remembered that, well.....................doesn't matter.


Somedays my heart feels like a cold lump of coal. I love those days!!!!!!!!

Thank you.

I know I said I was to busy to post until after Christmas, and so far this makes the second since that comment, but this is important. I promise.
Today I was on my way to pick up Xander. He was with Tony at the job site where they are currently working. Well, the car ran out of gas. Not the most brilliant of moments for me, but I've moved on.
I was not far from a gas station. So, I walked there and obtained a gas can and some gas....of course. A gentleman asked me if I needed a ride and I declined. Not because he seemed creepy, but because I read the news.
On my walk back to the car, and let me remind you it was bitter cold, a young woman about my age pulls up and offers me a ride. I gladly accepted even though I was not far from the car. We chatted briefly about strangers and she and I agreed that being approached by a woman when in a situation like I was in is far less threatening than being approached by a man.
After a two minute drive she drops me at my car. I said thank you and she said your welcome.
As I stood pouring the gas into my car a white truck pulled up behind me. An older gentleman was in his work truck and he did not get out of the vehicle, but motioned to see if I was in need of assistance. I motioned no, but he stayed there at the side of the road, in his truck, until I pulled away. He was making sure I wasn't hit buy a car.Considering I was smack dab in the middle of an exit I would say that was a very nice thing to do.
I am writing this because today was one of few where my hope for humanity glows a little brighter. Quite frankly, most of the time I am ashamed to be a human being. Today gave me a rare glimpse into the genuinely kind hearts fo people that do exsist. Their gestures were simple, but greatly appreciated.

Just Gawjus Darlin...........

Does anyone know how to spell georgeous/gorgeous/gorjus/gawjus/etc.......... the dictionary says it's spelled gorgeous. So, why do I think it's spelled georgeous? I think the dictionary is wrong. Stupid Websters. How many other words have they spelled wrong, huh? Makes you wonder doesn't it?

AHHH! Finals.

Yep. It's the end of the semester and I'm running around like a crazy woman. Xander has deleted a paper I am working on.....twice. Aside from that things are great! My laser hair removal is going well. In case you think that's too much information I am only saying so to let anyone who is curious know that laser hair removal is fantastic. Considering I am as hairy as a monkey I think that I am a good source to sing the praises of laser hair removal. It is rather painful, but the treatments are quick. Ok. I'm done.
I probably won't post again until after christmas.

Oh Really?!

Who would have guessed? The media a propagandizing tool?! I am so shocked. (didn't you hear me hit the floor?)
