I Am Bad




I am BAD!  Bad bad bad! I tell you!  Here is why:  I do not volunteer at my kids' schools.  I don't want to.  Is that wrong?  I know there are teachers who read this. I am sorry, but I am that parent.  Now, when it comes to my own kid, you have my full attention.  Talk to me.  I will work with you to help her succeed.  I will send notes when I have a question.  I am not a pest, I won't get in your face.  You are the teacher.  But please, don't ask me to volunteer.  I am not cut from that cloth.  I like my quiet time. 

I am bad because I am already planning my evenings for TV viewing.  Wondering how I can fit that in with blogging. Priorities people!  There are a lot of new shows on this seasons.  I know I could do so much more than watch prime time TV.  But by the time night falls, it's about all my sad brain can handle.

I am bad because I stay too late.  Every. Stinking. Night.  Why?  I lose track of time.  And then I am really tired.  And the next day I am dragging my feet looking like night of the living dead.  Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

I am bad because I procrastinate.  That's it.

LOL! Well, we are complete opposites. I will be volunteering at school, I hate watching prime time TV and I don't procrastinate... LMFAO! OK, the third one is totally ME. But still, I don't believe you are bad for any of that!

I don't volunteer either because I still have a kid at home and don't want to get a babysitter so I can go help babysit someone else.

LOL No one wants a volunteer who doesn't want to be there. :)

I stay up way too late blogging and watching tv...except for last night, when I was fast asleep at 8:30.

I do not judge because quite frankly I feel the same way. I am not really the "voluteer type" when it comes to the schools but I have 5 kids so I have done my share. The truth...There were moments but overall I didn't love it.
Some people just get really into it but I need my me time - ha ha!

Quite honestly - Sometimes, no most times, volunteers are more trouble than they are worth for me. I hate having to THINK of stuff for my volunteers to do, which I almost always have to do.

Hmm, I am so glad I don't have the television problem as our tv gets horrible reception. But Netflix... well, Netflix keeps me up very late indeed! :)

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
