I read about the way people blog...online, or in magazines...(the reading part of it...not the blogging part of it...) Geez...am I even making sense on my first line? ACK!! Anyways, I read about bloggers...and I think to myself...why can't I blog all the time like those other people? And then, I realize...I have a life...and I don't want to stay up way late into the night to be blogging about how Kayte read to me, or about the traffic on my way home from work. I cherish my sleep...I think it's the best part of my day!! And, I might add...I get a tad grumpy at times when I don't get my 8 hours of ZZZ's. Just ask my kids!! They will say, either you didn't get enough sleep last night, or you are PMS'ing!! How's that for your kids treating you like they are the parent? Tis ok though...they are great kids and I am not offended by them!!
Yesterday, as Ashlyn was driving me to school...well, she was driving herself to school, but I was the passenger, thus, she driving ME to her school...we looked at the sky and marveled at the sheer beauty of it. Or, at this point, it could have been the day before yesterday...but I digress. Yada, Yada...marveling at the sky, and Ashlyn remarked...It looks just like Trix yogurt!! And sure enough...not just any Trix yogurt, but cotton candy Trix yogurt!! A light blue with a tinge of pink in it!! Sigh...I wish I would have had my camera with me. It would have been a marverlous picture!! Then, this morning...and I am sure it was this morning...The sky was the same exact color. And yet again...no camera. And...while walking Kayte to the bus stop...I thought to myself, I really should take my camera with me this morning...just in case the sky is like that. Then...as we are on our way to the school...sure enough...with the mountain peering at me in all of it's gorgeous glory and the sky the same color pink and blue...I could have gotten out of my car at the school, taken this "to die for" picture, gotten back into my car...came home, downloaded the picture and put it up for all of you to see. But...well, yeah...life gets away from you and well...the brain just forgets. At least MINE does!! Will I think of the camera tomorrow on our way to school? Probably not...and I will have to bitch about it somemore when I blog next time!! :D
Ashlyn's birthday is on Sunday. The BIG 17!! Yeah, let me tell ya...where in the heck does time go? I remember when I was her age...it does not seem like that long ago...(insert crocodile tears here!!) She is such a great kid...so smart and beautiful...(as are my other children...I just have to dote on her for the moment since it's her birthday that's coming up...I will dote on the others once their birthdays come around!!) Smart and Beautiful...and funny, and charming...and a whole slew of words that are not coming to the brain at the moment. 17...kind of blows me away!! She had a fabulous time in DC...she wishes the kids at Oregon City High were as smart as the kids in DC...or at the particular conference anyways.
Still on track for baby making in November...I am getting SOOOO excited about it. I really feel like this time...it's it!! (Hope I am not jinxing myself here!!) Ah...only if you beleive in jinxing...just like horiscopes. That's another story though.
We have the City of Hope Ball to go to this weekend in Seattle. We are taking the kids this time...we didn't take them last year, as Michael was at his dad's house, Kayte was at a friends house, and poor Ashlyn...it was her sweet 16 birthday...and she went to the McNary football game...and then went home. Whoo Hoo...Happy Birthday!! Nah...she got a laptop for her sweet sixteen and a half birthday...so, I don't think she was complaining too much!! Anyways, we went to the ball...had a wonderful time last year. So, this year we will be going as Sara Lee's guests. My dress is a halter style, knee length dress...VAVOOM!! It's very pretty!! Don't tell anyone that I wore it to a different function last year!! Heaven Forbid you wear one dress on 2 different occasions!! LOL!! We will take pics and I will post them once we get back.
OK...I best be getting my bottom to work...oh yeah...have I mentioned lately that it's FABULOUS?? YAY ME!!!
