Let's Put Things In Perspective, Shall We?

Okay, first of all... THANK YOU SHONDA AND CHANNING!!!

Channing texted me today and wanted to know why I hadn't posted a new blog in a couple of days. That means he's reading it!!

And thanks to Shonda. Not only did she leave me a comment that she loves reading my blog, but she told me I was skinny. Oh, the love...

Okay, so why the outpouring of gratefulness?

Because it's been a crappy week, that's why!

Hayden has been a challenge all week at school. He is SOOOOO bored with Kindergarten and is acting out quite a bit. It's really upsetting to Mike and I because we have to punish behavior almost every night. I'm completely drained from being angry at him so much.
I realized that I have to pick myself up and make the situation better, and take advantage of the blessings in my life. Hayden will be fine. Mike and I, with lots of patience, are going to steer him in the direction he needs to go. Hardhead that he is, he is determined to learn the hard way, so we are ready. But OH MY GOD he's hardheaded!!! (like his dad... heee hee!!!!)

So as I mentioned before, my husband is wonderful. This month marks twenty years of togetherness. WOW! On his way home, he stopped and bought a bottle of wine and some sushi. (We are exploring sushi together!!!!) He fed the kids and sent them upstairs for some TV, then he and I lit a candle and sat at the table together in the candlelight. He filled my wine glass to the brim.

Then came SMOOTHIE NIGHT.

The kids love smoothie night. I make nutritious yogurt smoothies with fresh fruit - only tonight we had chocolate banana smoothies. Still pretty healthy as far as I'm concerned. For your viewing pleasure:

Julia and Hayden enjoy their treat!

Brandon and Mommy always share.


For some reason, reaching the bottom of the glass and hearing the sound of air running through the straw always cracks him up!

Maybe it IS the full glass of wine, but I'm feeling much better. Plus, there's always the fact that it's FRIDAY!!!

I love you Channing and Shonda! THANKS FOR READING MY BLOG!!!!

Oh, and one more thing. PLEASE vote for McCain. Not only is he much better than "Oprah-ma" the socialist, but we'd get to look at Todd Palin for at least four years. Sarah Palin has it all. Did you see how sexy she looked in her heels at the debate last night?

I hope you had pics of Lawerence Fishburne up for Smoothie Night!!

Once we get moved into the house we will make a date to hang out and make fun of each other all day. Wurstfest can't come soon enough for me, but I'm sad that we may not be able to afford to got to Renfair this year too because of all the money we're spending on this house at the moment. We haven't been to Renfair with you guys in awhile and it makes me sad.

I really want to come catch on of Hayden's games one day! Looks like a ton of fun. Plus the Coaches are HOT!!! Especially the skinny blond haired guy in the sunglasses......

I hope you and your gimpy foot wre doing ok, along with the rest of the Masters clan. Keep up with the blogging, I look forward to reading it everyday.
