The planets are crashing....

OK so for the past two weeks it has been hard to function at all.  Don't know what planets are crashing but I am definitely feeling it.  I have not been sick just drained completely emotionally and spiritually drained.  I am slowly climbing out of it . Friday was Professional Development day at work .  I signed up for my morning sessions but was having a hard time signing up for the afternoon sessions as most of my department was finding difficulty due to the lack of pd offered.  So we all decided a little lunch at the Ale House might be in order and it definitely was.  So here I was with some time on my hands and being the mother of three and not being able to function much last week the last place I wanted to be was in my house.  The house that a bomb went off in .  So I went to the only book store in town.  I love spending time in bookstores plus it was some quiet time for myself.  So here I am in the bookstore, not really paying muc...

Bringing back letter writing

OK, How many of you like to receive a nice letter in the mail from a friend?  I know I do.  Even though most of the time I get the mail from the mailbox it is junk mail, I still enjoy the wonder of "will there be a letter?"  On small occasions there is a letter that you open and savor.  A nice card from a friend far away with actual hand written words, possibly in a colorful pen.  You read it once, you read it twice, you may read it everyday for a week or longer.  It inspires you to write one back and maybe even write a letter to a different friend.  In this technological world we all email, face book, blog, etc..... and don't get me wrong I love them all, but what has happening to letter writing.  We say we have no time, but really how many hours do we spend on the computer blogging or facebooking. So why has this art form lost its value?  It has lost its value so much that post offices are closing.  Mail delivery may be shortened ...

Wacky Wednesday

OK so I have been really enjoying all of the creative blogs on SITS and Lady Blogger Society (Thanks Katie), but I am finding myself lost in blogs and ignoring the family, YIKES. Any of you that have kids know what happens then. Those wonderful children know that you are ignoring them and reek havoc on anything and everything. So I joined Lady Bloggers Society and I can not get the badge on my profile it keeps telling me there are invalid characters or something I don't know. I will try again . If anyone has any advice please let me know. So last week I friend requested my biological father and alas he ignored. I know this because his wall is public and he recently became friends with other people but not me. Does this bother me? I don't know, I am kind of indifferent to the situation. I don't know him wouldn't even be able to recognize him if he walked into the room. I guess what bothers me the most is the situation I am in, in having to explain this to my childr...

Bus Boy

Ode to my little muse, into whom I long to fuse. So like the morning dew, on leaves, so i'm on you. Oh so much fun, it must be done. Will it work for you, or should I get a clue? Oh Bus boy, bus boy, So much fun to toy. Oh bus boy , bus boy, when all fantasy's destroyed. Oh bus Boy ,Bus boy, There's no need for being coy. Oh bus boy , Bus boy Why deprive us the joy? You couldn't make me cry, and without a single try, Such tears fell from my eyes. and I couldn't tell him why. Oh, What a sight. I'm not looking for a fight, I'm hoping to cater, I'm sorry now you're a waiter Child don't you see, Now you belong to me. Go service all my customers, then come and service me.

What title?

Ok so I was searching blog templates but it just seems as though it may be too much work for me. I just want to write. I should be doing this at night when I rest my head on the pillow cause that is when all the thoughts come rumbling in, but this seems as though it is my little quiet time. Today the sun in shining Yeah!!!!! 45 degrees out, Yeah, what a nice relief from that low pressure that was hanging above us. Looking for a good book for my book club NBC(Naughty Book Club). We started with a naughty paranormal romance just for kicks and giggles. This Month's book has been entertaining, not as naughty. All the books do not have to be naughty but I am unsure as to how deep others want to go. The book has to be a quick easy read for all of us moms and teachers, entertaining, and I am hoping for somthing to create some great discussion. Any suggestions?!?!? I am feeling disappointed in myself lately for my lack of motivation in regards to my musicianship. I just want...

Happy March Fools Day

OK March 1st and now a new mind set.  At least I am trying to focus on the positive:):):) It has been a fun past few days , I have been blog browsing.  Blog browsing can be quite fun, but sometimes I would get a little kick in the gut when you see all of the family blogs.  Really, everyone is so in love with their kids?!?!  I mean I unconditionally love my children and do everything I can for them but really people.  Maybe because most of them only have about 1 to 2 kids, but is everyone being so real on their blogs.... " I am married to the best guy...... I have three wonderful kids......blog, blog, blog and so on."  Get my picture? Really I do have a great husband and three wonderful kids.  I ask myself all the time how did I become so blessed .  I am working on finding myself again because being a wife and mom can cause a woman to lose themselve, so I will not be boasting about my wonderful family.  Sorry, at least not right no...
