lovely...not!

just what someone needs 6 days before a cruise, right???
UGH!!!

sprained my ankle pretty darn good in the first five minutes of the game last night. i think my soccer career is over for now...so sad :(

sad and bad day

- heard horrible news today...my dear old friend from east tx...her stepson tried to take his life last night. he is only 16 maybe 17 years old. have not talked to her yet...not sure what to even say.

- hurt one of my dearest friends feelings...need to get foot permanently glued into mouth

- fil is not doing well...he went to doctor today...have not heard anything yet...he told my hubs this morning he is so ready to die. he has been in so much pain for the last ten years that i don't blame him.

- mother is sending many guilt waves my way

- i drove by our old lss store that closed about a year and a half ago and saw this...

i know it sounds silly but this store meant more to me than just a place to scrap. and to actually see it gutted...ick! i feel so sad :(

6th grade graduation???

my baby...i mean young lady

do i agree with a 6th grad graduation...not really. it's not like it is high school! but i guess it is a big milestone for her to be leaving elementary and going to middle school. i must admit, i did enjoy it. i can't believe she is about to be a teen! time flies! it seems just like yesterday i was watching her take her first step. i will also admit i got a little teary eyed when i was putting make-up on her. YES MAKE-UP! her dad didn't like that to much. but it wasn't a lot. she looked beautiful! i can't wait to see what is in store for her next year. she will be so busy with volleyball, highsteppers and softball. she already made the highsteppers but she has to try out for sports when school starts. she will be heart broken if she doesn't get on one of the teams. but i guess all i can do is be there to pick her up. out of the three girls she is my fashion diva, perfectionist and the most emotional one. she tries so hard to please everyone. and i don't know how to get her past that.

she was so mad when i made her take a pic with a boy. she just about cried. they have been good friends all year and i wanted to make sure that i had a pic of them for her scrapbook. maybe she will thank me in years to come.

today is field day at their school. i'm such a bad mom for not going. but trying to make all the rounds for three is just to much. two are at the same time and i can't go to one without going to all. if i did i would never hear the end of it. so my excuse is i have to take the new pup to the vet and have things i have to get done...like take a nap!

...til next time
