Twice a Month

I think blogging twice a month is about my style. Especially when I have a computer/internet connection at home that don't always co-operate. Now my mouse is not working - or more likely the socket the mouse plugs in to. There's always something.

Anyway. Last week I went to Meagan's swim meet with Murray High. Becky, Ray and Dana were there. They were very entertaining. Dana is still in love with Tyler. Ray looked at all the swimmers and said something along the lines of, "If I were co-ordinated, didn't sink in water and were at all athletic, I could do that." Considering all of Meagan's knee problems, she did quite well.

Speaking of Meagan, she turned 17 yesterday. Can you believe it? It doesn't seem like that long ago that I gave birth to my oldest child. When I got home from work, Meagan asked if she could invite her friends over to watch a movie or play games. I told her she could either on her birthday or on Saturday, but not both. She ended up falling asleep on the couch at 8 pm, so I guess that means she chose Saturday. Good thing her friends didn't come over last night!

Jarom and Amber have concerts coming up. Jarom's is Wed. Dec. 4 at 7:00 pm at Kennedy Jr. Amber's is Dec. 19 at Jackling Elem. I think it's at 7:00 pm. I'll have to look when I get home. Cameron and Meagan don't have any concerts this year. Sad, huh?

Well, I'd better go back to work. I'll post again in two weeks! (probably . . . )

I'm Back . . .

I don't know what to blog about. My mind is blank. Let's see, we survived Halloween. Amber and I have been cleaning her bedroom for the past few weeks. It has been FUN! My idea of clean and Amber's are totally different. Someday we may even get done. I think we're about half way there. Today we were going to go donate a bunch of Amber's stuff to the DI and they closed down the one closest to us. Guess I'll have to find another DI.

Meagan is still swimming. I took her to see my kinesiologist and she said that Meagan's hamstrings are too tight and her quads are too loose. She gave Meagan some stretches to do before swimming and told her to make sure she drinks powerade before she swims so her muscles don't get dehydrated. Hope she gets better!

Jarom is in the living room with Amber and me practicing his trumpet. Brass instruments sure are loud. Oh, for the days of string instruments again. Alas, I think they are over. Meagan would rather join Concert Choir, she thinks. (Wouldn't have anything to do with a certain boy named Tyler, nope, not at all.) Jarom is getting better and better - I can sure tell when he's practiced and when he hasn't.

Cameron finally got his gameboy back today after a month or so of begging. Aren't I mean? I must remember to get it back from him before bedtime so he sleeps tonight.

I guess that's about it. David's allergies are driving him crazy today. His eyes have been bright red. Yardwork is not so good for him. I think he's asleep already. He says it feels better when his eyes are closed. I think I'm about ready to go close my eyes as well.

Hey, Becky, someday I may actually do that "tag" thing, but not tonight. I am a BAD blogger. Sorry.
