2010 Crazy

Happy New Year everyone, I hope that you all had a fun New Years Eve. We were quite boring this year. Games, sweets and movies with the family. I didn't even make it to midnight. Well midnight here. I made it to midnight somewhere. I am such an old fart.

Oh well, the New year and a new decade is here. Yay!! I have no idea why a new year always makes you feel like anything is possible. I am being such a nerd this year and am actually excited about the new year and all the possibilities.

Hopefully, I sustain this mood when real life, real schedules, and huh humm Christmas bills start on Monday.

Well actually, I am pretty sure I will because that is one of my New Year's Resolutions is to develop a better attitude. Kinda like Willow's New Year's Resolution to suck a little less. Though I have to say in all the years I have known Willow I have never known her to suck. She must have kept that side of her hidden from me.

I have to many New Year's resolutions which of course is a New Year's Resolution no,no. You are just suppose to make one change at a time. WHATEVER!! Well maybe I will just attack one goal at a time or maybe I will just loop them all together and consider it part of my better attitude goal.

That being said there are a few blog related changes taking place. First, I do plan on bringing back the 52 blessings challenge. Which lasted a whole month and a half last year. This year I will be a little more flexible and if I have to post four in one day then that is what I will do. Just as long as there is four to five a month done. I really think that it helps me to concentrate on the good stuff that happens in life.

Second, I will be doing a lot more work on my second blog BK@home (www.bkathome.blogspot.com). The poor little blog died on April 22 last year and it sits all abandoned and lonely. Well it might not have feelings so it may not feel abandoned but I fell like a bad mom every time I see it on my dashboard. I will be bringing it back to life with a few post. Starting with a rehash of our Christmas Eve party. A little run down on the menu and how we handled 30 people in our little home. So add our little home blog to your reader and look for some post.

On a totally non blog related note. Our little group of bikers are planning on attacking the Little Red again this year. However, due to all of our schedules we have decided to opt for the shorter 50-60 mile route. If your interested we would love for you to join us. We are looking forward to the ride and hope to make it a kind of strange and twisted tradition. Let me know.

I have blabbed on and on and if I am going to keep my word on this years resolutions I better get busy. Hope you all have a wonderful day.

Prayers and Hugs

WHAT????? Who is doing little red. I never said anything about doing it. I might consider it though 60 would be easy after last year. I THINK!!!!

You're not old, sweetie...you are a seasoned professional.

I watched the ball drop from the comfort of my own home...haven't been out on NYE in forever...may never want to again! The drunk drivers...the bad weather. I can stay home and get pickled and go to sleep. I like all 3 of these things!

Happy Twenty-Ten!

At my Age

I saw this quote the other day and had to smile. It has been interesting finishing school at my age. I have had this feeling more than once that I am a little old, and finishing school is something I should have done a long time ago. Usually I remind myself that we all have our own paths to take in life. My path had me marry at 19 and become the mother of four beautiful rug rats by 27. Marriage and children defined me more than anything. I became more aware of my talents and abilities. I really didn't know who I was before I became a wife and mother. Waiting until now to finish my degree gave me time to figure out who I am. Well, at least to have a better idea of who I am. I love being in a classroom, I love learning, and I love helping others learn. My inner nerd does little happy dances every time I learn something new. Each person on this planet has their own God given talents. We have a responsibility to find our talents and to make the world a better place. How old you are wh...

Pinewood Derby or Bust!

If there is one thing that Brent and I both agree on.  One thing that we both believe is essential to the proper development, growth, and raising of a son. That no boyhood would be complete with out.  It would be participation in the Pinewood Derby.   Yes, on this one thing Brent and I are in total agreement.  A boyhood is not a true boyhood until a boy has built a pinewood derby car and then competed in a pinewood derby.  It is that important!  I'm sorry if you have never had the opportunity to live in a house filled with the air of pinewood derby. If you have never had the opportunity of watching a father stand to the side as his son uses HIS power tools. The opportunity to take a chunk of wood and see that inside the wood is the makings of a CAR.   You wonder why men are so obsessed with cars, with how there made, and how fast they go.  Well if you have ever brought home a pinewood derby box kit to a home with boys and men all your questions would be answered. Once the car is b...

The Kids Today

S. is now 11 years old and is counting down the days until she turns 12. She is in the fifth grade and says math is her favorite subject. She stays pretty busy with swimming and soccer. This past year in addition to a regular AYSO team she has been competing on an All Star Team. She has really enjoyed it and is really looking forward to a tournament that will take place in Hawaii this July. She still loves swimming and is still competing when she can. A. is 9 years old and is the professor of the house.  He is our silent man whose brain is in constant motion.  He reads and reads and reads and soon will read me out of house and home.  He enjoys video and computer games, and he loves playing sports.  In January he made the city swim team and continues to play soccer, basketball, and anything that I let him.  Al will soon be eight.  As in next week soon.  The best part of school she says is 3:25 when pressed for a better answer than that she say...
