3 goals 1-to get a degree and a job so that I dont have to wait tables for the rest of my life. 2-to take more pictures 3- write in my diary/journal more often
3 obsessions
1-shopping...doesnt matter what store or where. My shopping obsessions has to be delt with on a daily basis. sometimes I just feel like I NEEd to buy something. It can be the dollar store. you'd be suprised how many times i have gone in there and come out with 25 dollars of NOTHING in my sack.
2-reality tv shows....are nothing but garbage usually but I enjoy them. This is a guilty pleasure
3-eating food.... I was on a diet recently and only then did I realize how much of my life revolves around food and eating. I think as americans we are pigs and a lot of social activities involve eating, which is really quite sad. This probably explains the 20 extra lbs that I carry around on my hips and stomach.
3 suprising facts:
1-I am very competitive especially when it comes to games. I just dont like to loose. It makes me feel like, well, a looser. who wants to feel like a looser?Many fights with friends have recently been over board games or uno. we have even fought over sorry and scrabble sad. I started to think that I was a sore looser but then I realized it couldnt be me...so I think I must be playing with sore winners.
2-im a perfectionist. You would never know by the amt of piled up dirt laundry or my messy bedroom and disgusting car. Its kindof demented becuase if I cant achieve perfection in something then I will not even try. If I cant be totally organized I would rather not even try. I know it sounds crazy.
3-I think I want to be a nurse but I am terrified of blood and guts. ok im done.....
yay me! I tag.....leslie and rheanna and....shooot I dunno anyone else that reads my blog Oh maybe tracy

just my thoughts

I really have mixed feelings about telling me kids about things like "the easter bunny", santa clause, the tooth fairy, santa claus etc. I mean are we really expecting them to believe in a GIANT BUNNY who comes into thier house at night to hide eggs and leave candy and treats for them. I personally think its a bit creepy. So did colbyn this year. He freaked out thinking someone was coming into his house and kept saying "no ho ho". He somehow related it to santa coming and was easy about someone coming into the house while he was sleeping. After trying to calm him down with no success I finally took back what I said about "the easter bunny". I told him No Dewy nobody is coming into the house. Ho hos are not coming. Your ok. But how silly did I feel after telling my kids a lie that scared the crap out of them. I dont know how long these traditions of believing in santa will last. My brother had a girlfriend who to this day is still upset with her parents for making her believe in santa only to find out later on in life that he was fictional. she didnt want to be lied to. I dont like to be lied to. We teach out kids about honesty but expect them to believe TALL TALES about deer flying and giant bunnies. silliness if you ask me.

Easter sunday



The boys had a good easter this year. We colored easter eggs the night before I showed dax how to make a nest out of his clothes on the floor so the easter bunny would have a place to leave his basket.(an old family tradition) I didnt get a picture of this unfortunately but I did get a few shots in during the easter hunt. The boys got fishing poles in their easter basket and lots of little toys. Grandma Thompson put on her easter hunt and made a delicious dinner. All in all it was a fun day.
