    Sometimes when life gets too crazy you just gotta soak!   Honey, you forgot the bubbles!!  Winky wink wink!   You sexy thang!!!

I am a whirlwind most days!
I want to have my chocolate and not wear it on my hips too!
I wish  long lasting health for my children.
I hate vinegar…allergic!
I fear snakes…eeeew!
I hear voices in my head!
I wonder just exactly what I am capable of?
I am not going to succumb to peer pressure..again! Giggles!
I dance every chance I get…especially in the shower!
I cry at sad movies!
I am not as organized as I seem to appear!
I make with my hands the results of creative bursts in my little pea brain!
I write often, but not as well as I wish I could!
I confuse directions…I get lost all the time!
I need some chocolate!
I start sentences before my brain processes the thought!
I finish as many things as I can!

Playing the letter game and mine is ‘B’…

 1) Beautiful…I happen to think that I have the most beautiful children in existance!  They all came in a nice wrapper, but everyone of those little people has a beautiful inside as well. Kind, caring, gentle and generous!

2) Beach…one of my most favorite places in the entire world.  Ocean breeze, salty smell, rythymic sound of the always faithful waves.  LOVE it, LOVE it, LoVE it!!

3) Buddies…I have a handful of truly wonderful buddies!  People that I can sincerely count on that love and accept me regardless of my quirks!

4) Bubbles…love the millions of colored patterens that swirl around as they float through life without a care in the world!

5) Brownies…only partially baked of course!  So much better when shared at midnight over giggles and gossip with a wonderful friend (big hug, Kelly!!)!

6) Babies…who can resist them!  They are so small and sweet and smell so wonderful! 

7) Buttered popcorn…yum!  Lightly, with a sprinklee-poo of salt!

8) Bubbly Bath…lots of warm, soapy bubbles!  Long, quiet, relaxing soak!

9) Bears…teddy bears!   I LOVE them!  I have a real weakness for stuffed animals. : )

10) Best friend…My hubby, Cory!  He has the strength to put up with me, the wisdom to understand me and the patience to stick with me!

**This was too much fun!  Can I play again!?  LOL

 

My poor van!:(

   Ok, so I was the last one to leave the park today from our home schooling meeting.  I pulled out of my parking space and watched as a teenage girl pulled quickly out of her space up near the entrance of the park and sped away.  I turned my attention to a second car that was parked down two spaces from her, but not moving.  As I got closer to it the driver backed out of his spot really fast with NO warning and slammed into the front of my new van.  (It is only three car payments old…sigh).  I saw him coming at us in slow motion and knew there was nothing I could do.  If I pulled to the left he would have hit my passenger side and if I pulled to the right he would have hit the van head on (possibly deploying the air bags) and I had no time to put it in reverse and back up.  We both got out and he was fighting back tears as he apologized and tried to process what had just happened.  He proceeded to explain that he was there to ‘fight’ some other teenage boy over some teenage girl  (I am assuming the first girl that tore out of the parking lot).  He also said that he saw me in his mirror and hit the gas instaed of the brake and that he wasn’t sure why he even did that.  After that I saw his lips moving but the sounds coming out mattered very little to me.  It took forever for the police to arrive, even though they are right across the street.  The officer told me that this would not be treated as an actual accident because it was not a highway accident and that it was up to the boy to contact the insurance agent and they should be in touch with me soon…

    This is why they should not give driver’s licenses to teenage people…
