I am so excited that tomorrow is Friday. A couple of weeks ago we got an email at work telling us about this project called Empty Bowl. Local artists make and donate handmade bowls. Each ticket that you buy gets you into the event, lunch, and you get to pick out a bowl. I also bought raffle tickets for a homemade quilt. I hope to win and all proceeds go to the Tarrant County Food Bank. I am pretty sure that it will be longer than a regular lunch hour, and they said it would be fine. :)
It will be so fun. I am really looking forward to it. If I ever become independantly wealthy, I will volunteer and organize these types of events.

It's a good thing
that I am not on my period or going through PMS. The past two weeks of drama would certainly have done me in. You're thinking to yourself, "but it's only Monday..."
I KNOW!
I have officially hit PAUSE on this Days of Our Lives movie marathon.
Some good news...
Went to CVS yesterday thinking that there would be some post Valentine's sales and I definitely wanted to cash in on that. Who doesn't secretly love an assorted chocolate heart?? I know I do! So I go down the clearance aisle to find all things Valentine are 50% off. Not bad for the day after! I found the last HUGE heart and walked it to the checkout line. By the time it was all said and done (clearance price plus bonus bucks coupon), I paid $4 for an $18 heart full o chocolate. :) My heart was happy, and do I even need to mention that I share a house with THREE girls?? IT was a good night for all of us.

A side note.
The previous post was not directed at anyone in my immediate family, or my friends who read this blog. It just needed to be said so that I could move on. Thanks for the emails and messages making sure that I was all right. I guess it wasn't a good idea to put something like that up around Valentine's day.
All is well in my little world.

Three words!
Get over it!
Do you know why "no one can understand" what you're going through?? Because you won't tell anyone the truth!!
Do you know why "everyone is talking about you behind your back"?? Because we care about you!!
Do you know why I am losing interest?? Because at some point you're going to have to wake up and realize you're not 4 years old, you can't hug it out, and you need to learn how to deal with life. We all have.
Do you know why I ask other people about you?? Because you don't answer the phone or respond to emails!
These are all moments that I choose to spend on you! Because I am concerned, not because I am manipulative gossip.
Guess what?? After all of these years, I have finally realized that you have only been thinking about you. If you had taken the time to look outside of yourself you would have seen that you have a family that cares about you.

Nuthin'
It's been pretty boring around here folks. I don't have anything new to report, nothing exciting, nothing at all.
We are going to sell cookies tomorrow night, and Saturday afternoon. Then, we are going to hit the neighborhoods and keep our fingers crossed that there are some people out there who haven't bought any cookies this year. I am ready for it to be OVER.
Work is work.
Ben is in Vegas for a week.
In a little over a week, Haley will be SIX years old, Cole will be ONE, Loretta will be ??? ( she won't say), and our little dog Lewis will be SEVEN. Haley wants to go to a restaurant called The Magic Time Machine in Dallas. I have never been there but I hear it's a lot of fun. It's a themed restaurant where the wait staff is dressed like famous people. She will get the royal treatment because it's her birthday and we won't have to cook or clean. :)

Maybe I should rephrase...
What I meant to ask is...
If you have myspace,facebook, or blogger accounts, which account gets most of your attention by way of updating?
Right now I only have this blogger account, but a lot of my friends have all of the above. Am I missing something since I can only check the blogger blog? I really don't want to have two more accounts to check, but the nosey me wants to know EVERYTHING. In a good way, of course.
