Woooohooooo!!!! It's FRIDAY!!!!!!!!

Woooohooooo!!!!!!!!!! It's finally Friday! We just had another exallerating pep assembly with Coach Diener. It seriously makes you want to kick someone's butt. You don't even care who it is! You are all fired up!

Well...I've been teasing the football players all day that they are going to be playing the first ever "water polo" game in GEHS history. So kuddos to all the moms who have to wash those uniforms tomorrow. Kuddos to all the fans that are going to sit in the rain and watch this magnificant game of "water polo".

As for me... I will be home watching metro sports and being high and dry! Our school is going to be the first game highlights they show this week. :) GO BLAZERS!

Woeful Wednesday

It should be joyous Wednesday...after all I did get paid today! Well at midnight last night anyway. Well...it would have been joyful Wednesday BUT.....

1. I had to fight with Magnum for the cover all night. (He still thinks he's a little puppy!)
2. I couldn't figure out what to wear.
3. Having a horrible hair day!
4. Check to see that my paycheck came in. (Yippeee!)
5. Go to Sonic because I wanted a giant Rte 44 Diet Coke....and my debit card doesn't work! (Bank shuts it off when I run low in the bank account and forgets to turn it back on!)
6. Go to Price Chopper for breakfast because I can write a check.
7. Get biscuits and gravy...make it to check out lane....girl puts it in the bag and lose half of it by the time I get to work!

Having a wonderful start to an already depressing Wednesday...(funeral is today)
PRICELESS!!!

Hope you all are having a better day!

Ode to Cold Weather

Cold weather is my friend on some occasions. Like when I'm snuggled up in my warm cozy bed sleeping soundly. When I can dig out sweaters and add more clothes to my wardrobe. When I can feel the cold breeze blow in my face...wakes you up in a hurry!

Cold weather is good for snow days! ;) I love snow days! (Wishing I could have one this week!) I don't go any where on snow days...just sit at home snuggled in a blanket watching TV! Ahhh...the life!

I do have issues with the cold weather on other occasions. Like when ever joint in my body decides to ache. When my legs and knees do not want to work in the mornings. Or wrestling with the coat and trying to drive.

So cold weather has its good things and its bad. But I am just glad that it is finally here! :)

Lost A Dear Friend

I'm writing again because for some reason blogging has become very theraputic for me.

My dear friend Don Bechard passed away this morning. He has been battling cancer for a while. He lost that fight this morning. He had his wife and some of the family there with him when he left this earth. However, his daughter was at school and had to be told at school.

We are all sadden by this but I know that he has gone to Heaven and that he doesn't hurt anymore. I can't stop smiling when I think of Coach. He touched so many lives by his strength and courage. That man never frowned. He was in so much pain but never let on. I admire him greatly and so happy to have known him. He truly was an inspiration to me.

Now comes the healing part for his family. He was very close to them. Don was a very religious man and believed that God would take care of him and his family. He was a member of the Catholic church here in town. I know that there is a special place for him and that his family will see him again. I am so grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. I can't imagine not having it in my life.

Here's to Don....Until we meet again!

Go Blazer Blue!!!!

Here's my cheer and shout out to all the Blazers today! Fall Sport season is officially here! Wooohooo! Go Blazers!

I'm getting fired up for the pep rally at the end of school today! ;)
I got to wear jeans again to work so I'm a pretty happy camper! :) (Plus it's remote control night!)

Well...actually...I have things to get done tonight. But it is all good! :)

Happy Friday y'all!

Aw...the signs that fall is approaching

Since I stayed home on Tuesday...I undoubtly had to return yesterday. It was a great day for watching Finding Nemo in Spanish. It was raining and the kids were just dragging. :) (Much like their teacher.)

Well....it rained and therefore turned cooler. And oh what a joyous day it was. I saw only a couple of pairs of short shorts roaming around. I saw lots of hoodies instead of the normal "falling out" of shirts! Hallelujah!

Another sign of fall is Dan's first football game of the season. Yes, he was gone refereeing yesterday. Then he had a football rules meeting so he didn't get home til 9pm. Magnum and I had a great time! We got to visit with my visiting teacher and then we had dinner. I did some stuff and watched tv. Yep, you guessed it...whatever I wanted! I've learned to appreciate fall!

Another game this afternoon, but Dan will be home in time for dinner. :) Guess I get to watch what he wants to or go upstairs and watch what I want to... ;)
But tomorrow night, the remote is all mine! :)

Home with a Sty in my Eye

So I just have to say how much I hate using "sick" days for being sick. I woke up Sunday morning with a sty forming on my right eye. I have had them before...painful but usually really small and gone in a day or two. Ok...not so much this time. By Sunday evening, I had a knot forming. It finally starting coming to the service but it is much larger than I have ever had. I spent yesterday with a swollen eye and wanting to scratch my eyeball out. Ughhhh!

I woke up this morning and it was still there and painful. I just called the sub line and figured it was better to be home than at work in pain. I keep putting a hot rag on my face. That helps...so if anyone knows how to get rid of these awful stys please share! I'll take any suggestions at this point!
