Bama Ramblings

Well.....
my child has less than 1yr. to go and she'll be 18yrs. old.
And she's counting down the days too....lol.

Her schools marching band went to a competition yesterday and they came home with 5 trophies. They're good!

This is her junior Fall pic.
And another one or 2 of mz. Jenna.

The countdown to Christmas has begun.....less than 3 months and I'm not even close to being ready. I think I've got 2 or 3 gifts and that's it. Not like me cause I'm usually almost done by this time every year.

Glad the weather is changing *a little*. Being from southeast Alabama....it doesn't change too much. I don't even get to see the leaves change colors.

Until next time........
Have a Nice Day!

Back again....
Well, my birthday was this past Monday and it was a pretty good day to turn 41yrs. young.
Got the same from my daughter as last year........NOTHING! Not even a Happy Birthday mama. oh well......she'll regret it one day!
On the other hand, hubby cooked me roast, taters, & carrots. And cupcakes since I'm not a cake & ice cream girl. And my pixel sisters gave me goodies that I absolutely LOVE!!!!!!!!! Thank You Angela & Cally......love you both!

Fall is supposed to be here, but with some temps still close to 90 during the day, I'm not so sure.
I'll be glad when it does start cooling down though.
Here in lower Alabama we don't get to see the leaves change to pretty colors. I hate that! But at least I can see it in pictures.

My daughters high school are 5-0 now. Her marching band isn't that enthused though. They don't like football playoffs. But that's part of being in the band.
The band has a competition next Saturday. I hope they do real good.
And goodie, goodie.......I got the info for the Spring band trip. It's to Orlando/Tampa, FL.
Maybe she'll be able to go on this trip. She's been doing pretty good about being good for a while now. And OMG!.....she is addicted to the Spice Girls. Yep....I know they're old news, but she dug out her videos & cd's & plays them over & over constantly.

Hopefully I'll have new pics to share next time.
Take care Everyone!

Well.....took a little while again....oops!

Since most of you (my friends) know that I have Muscular Dystrophy.......
I'll let ya know something.
I can't stand Jerry Lewis and his telethon!
I see where he raised $61 million this year *yesterday*.......and still there's no sign of a cure for any type of MD over all of the years he's been collecting money.
I can't get any help from them because I won't go to their docctors.
I'm not gonna go and let them put me on all kinds of medicines and drugs that AREN'T going to help me!
I'm sorry if I sound mean, but all I see is money coming in and trials on mice.
Ummmmmmm...............mice are not humans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

k.........enough of that!

Some people are such idiots.
Go in and hack sites....delete sites........and laugh about it.
What do they get from it? NOTHING!

Kristen picked out her class ring today....ughhhhh......almost $500!
She swears she's gonna pay half of it......we'll see.
And she owes us for where we paid a guy to have his car fixed where she backed into him.....another $600!
She's gonna owe us til she becomes an old lady......lol.

A new pic or two of Ms. Jenna at the top. She's 6 months old now.

I'm back sooner......believe it or not.

Not much happening today.
I did give myself an early birthday present by getting a membership to Perfectly Pixeled Signatures. I've been wanting to join this part of Deidre's site for a while now.
Sure there are plenty of others out there that I want to join too.

I'm ready for Fall to get here. It's too dang hot here.
I know it's hot everywhere and I feel for you all.
Especially the ones that aren't used to it.

Gotta get to bed so I'll be ready to work on my site some more tomorrow.

See ya later and Have a Nice Day

I am so sorry about forgetting to post here.
But with everything else....
sites...groups...forums...a teenage daughter...sharing computers...a niece to spoil...Avon business...just EVERYTHING in general.
Hopefully with school starting yesterday, I'll be able to get back to a fairly normal posting on my blog.

Now I'm making my niece her own site. So that's taking some time.
Trying to get her pics and videos that I have saved on my computer uploaded and added.
It's a slow work in progess when you only have dial-up.

My child is now a junior. Her first day was yesterday and she seems to think she'll like it.....good!
Her section leader training, rookie camp, and band camp went good. Looks like she'll have fun this football season.

Just wanted to drop in here and get my blog going again.
I'll be back soon!

Have a Nice Day
and a Great weekend!!!!!!

Saturday, May 20, 2006

oops! I've not posted for a while again......Sorry!

Well....May is here and almost over now.
Let's see what's happened.....

Kristen's finished with her 10th grade year and will be a Junior in August.
She's excited about being section leader in band.
She's going to try to work extra during the summer to earn more money....Yayyyy!!!!!!! lol
She's doing better than before, but knowing me....I just jinxed myself.

My niece Jenna will be 3 months old next week and it's hard to believe she's that old already.
She's teething.
She's saying "Mama" already. But only because I talk to her and it's not baby talk either. I figure she'll learn faster if we talk every day words to her.
My other niece Molly, Jenna's sister graduated 5th grade this past week. She'll be starting middle school in August. Poor girl....she's a little pitiful this weekend cause she's got to go to her daddy's in Virginia for at least 2 months for the summer.

We lost my Aunt Dot to cancer on May 6th. It was hard cause we've always been close. She had a bout with breast cancer last year and beat it, but not even 2 months ago...doctors found 8 tumors on her brain and spots on h er lungs. Never smoked a day in her life either!
Things are slowly getting better.

Gonna do more updating and work on my sites this weekend...planning to anyway.

Take care and.......
Have a Great Week!

Almost the end of April.......
where has this month gone??????

Not a whole lot going on around here.
Just trying to deal with the 90's temps and it being hotter than hell.

Don't ya wish money would increase in your income like the prices on EVERYTHING goes up?
It's ridiculous! Not just gas prices....it's everything.
And why?
Like the old saying...."the rich keep getting richer and the poor get poorer".

My child is finishing up the 10th grade in 2 1/2 weeks. Hard to believe she's only got 2yrs. left in school. But time flies too!
Jenna was 2 months old Tuesday and getting bigger and smarter. And trying to talk, but nothing wants to come out for her...lol.

okay.....not much to share today, so I'm outta here

Take care & Have a Nice Day
