Garage Sales

I am writing this as I relax on my couch...My sis (the oldest) and I had a garage sale yesterday and today....it was a town wide sale...probably less than 1000 people in my little town...it kicked our arse....garage sales are WORK!!! Started each day around 7 a.m. and didn't end till about 5 p.m., so a total of approximately 10 hours EACH day...raked in a total of $28.00 the first day....even less the second....everyone wants you to give them your stuff....and guess what? I did give it away the second day....from now on, I am GOING to the sales NOT having them!!Ha

I am loving this weather we're having lately...so nice and warm with nary a cloud in the sky...ah Summertime, where have you been?

ATT and a break

Today I am cleaning out my closet for a garage sale tomorrow....I like going to them not having them, but when stuff is pouring out of your closet....it's time!

I have been out of school for almost exactly 2 weeks now. Monday I paid the fees to be able to sit for my NCLEX-PN exam. I got the Authorization To Test today....I'm panicking again today. I have been studying, but it doesn't seem like I learned enough in school. Talked to a friend...she feels the same way...what the heck?

So what is going on in your world today? I hope you're having a great summer even though we really haven't had the weather for it.

I'n NOT gonna do it......

Thing 2 bought a stereo a while back. Wants to sell it now. For not even HALF what he paid for it. What does he want to buy? A piston or some such nonsense for a four-wheeler. So what's my problem with that? He wants ME to buy the piston off ebay for him with MY credit card.

Ummm, no, not gonna happen!! As you know I have been going to school. I receive unemployment while I go to school as long as I have good grades and actually go every day. I know, sweet!! But, thing is, unemployment is always messed up. This time I haven't been paid in 3 weeks!! So, no, not gonna do it.....

Live with it Thing 2, Oh and by the way, GET A JOB!!!!

Love,

Wundermama

A Day Just Like Another....


Today on my way to school I was looking at the clouds and sky and thought to myself how pretty it is and how I am enjoying the nice (hot) weather.

I remember having these same thoughts on another morning, but I was going to work. It was August 4,1989. The most important woman in the world to me died that day. My Mom. I thought about stopping and seeing her, it was right on the way. I didn't. I was taking half the day off to spend with her. Got the call at work, too late. I will regret not stopping for the rest of my life.

Have you heard the news? Farrah Fawcett died. Like her or not, she was a very important woman of her time. I can remember wanting to grow up and be like her. And who didn't want that hair? I watched the TV special that was on recently about her and I really hoped that she would beat the cancer. It just wasn't to be. My prayers go out to her son, Redmond. I hope that he gets his life on track again. He will never have the love like he had from Farrah. Nothing can replace a Mother's love.

So long Angel............

It's Not Her Job

Talking to Boy C (youngest grandchild) this weekend about school and I asked him how he liked his teacher. Replied that she is "okay, but she yells alot". "Why does she yell?" Boy C then replied, "because I'm doing something I shouldn't". Well okay, Wundermamaw then replies, "So she's trying to make you a better person. You shouldn't get upset, because she's trying to help you avoid trouble later on". "But it's Not Her Job", Boy C says (more like yells)!! Ok then, on to something else, cause I'm never going to win this one!

Hope you're having/had a great weekend. Guess what? We finally have summer type weather here! I am in my glory;)

Quizzes and Quilts, Oh My....

Just wanted to let everyone know that no one has been killed at my house. I have just been incredibly busy with school. Although, it is still not going great here. Lots of things I need to think about, and maybe some tough decisions to make.

In other news, it has been cold here! Today it has rained all day and the temp sits at 64 degrees Brrrr....would someone please tell the weatherman or whoever, that it is indeed June and it's time to start acting like it!! I had to put the quilt back on the bed the other night, that is just NOT right!

Ok, that's all I've got for tonight. How is the weather where you are? Please if you have a mind to pray for me....that I reach decisions that are satisfying...I'm not really comfortable putting alot of personal stuff on here, but I could use all the help I can get right now:)
