Whoops!

I do believe I have failed at the whole one-post-for-a-month-thing.

I just don't seem to have any interesting thoughts running through my mind. That might be because of all the thought that occurs throughout the day with these kiddos that keep me on my feet. By the time I get home, I'm exhausted. All I want to do is veg in front of the TV or behind a good book. That's it. No thought required.

So I apologize that my blog is lacking any intellectual thought. Maybe I'll be able to pull it all together....but then again....why? I like reading all night or watching my favorite shows (Biggest Loser tops the charts!).

Oops...Dancing with the Stars is back on. :)

All tucked in for the night

1. Home cooked dinner. Check (Sweet and Sour Chicken with rice; Egg drop soup)
2. Good movie. Check (The Cutting Edge)
3. Big comfy couch. Check
4. Warm blanket. Check
5. PJ's. Check

Night all!

I'm calling it a day....and it's only 6 in the morning.

Again. No water. This construction outside my home is stretching me.

Red Lights

911 Operator: 911, how may I help you?

Me: I just witnessed an accident at 15th St and 2nd Ave N.

911: Anyone hurt, ma'm?

Me: I don't know yet, hold on.........nope, they are okay.

911: Are there any fluids leaking from the vehicles?

Me: Hold on. Let me check. Yep, fluids.

911: What kind of vehicles were involved ma'm?

Me: A Trailblazer and an Explorer.

911: Okay, ma'm. Let me check...you are at 15th and 2nd?

Me: Yep.

911: Help will be right there.

Me: Thanks so much.


I suppose that's what happens when I try to "run quickly" home on one of my breaks. Last time I did this, I witnessed a poor dog and his last moments of life; and this time I watch someone run a red light.

I think I'll start staying at work. I'm not a fan of watching moments like these.

*And yes, I know I didn't post yesterday. It was Noelle's birthday and I was at dinner with her and then went to Bible study. I was exhausted when I got home. But there are still 19 more days of November to go.

YAWNNNN....

And that's all I have this Monday evening. Thanks for tuning in.
