First day of school

Okay...so am I caught up on blogs yet?? Don't worry I have a few more up my sleeve.
So, yesterday was my first day of college, and I think I may have gotten more worked up than was necessary. I start of with English, which is an easy subject for me...and as far as I'm concerned I think I should be in a higher class than English 101. Anyway, then I have lunch. So far not a tough day, huh? After lunch I go to math, which is also mostly review for me, then I have Gen. Bio. which is also mostly review, plus my instructor is kinda new and seems too casual for what I want a teacher to be. The other factor is that I'm fairly certain I am the oldest student in all those classes, which can be frustrating because all the kids in the class have no idea what they're doing...which means...class is going to move very slowly!!! But on the bright side (as my family has been telling me) at least it's not hard and intimidating. So...to all you who have been not so patiently waiting - I am finally in school. woo hoo.
Thank you all for your support and for pushing me to do it... I needed the push. You know me.


...by the way...please ignore the picture of my cleavage on my sisters blog...that was unkind, and she will pay....really I guess it's my fault for making it available...don't worry I learn quickly.
oh yeah, the other thing regarding this (apparently I didn't learn quick enough) I will never wear a low necked shirt to school....bending over in lab only results in young boys looking down my shirt!

You know...Dad just sent me ALL of the VHS tapes from our childhoods. I'm SURE we could find something on them to post on your blog as retribution.

Chicken Adventure Begins

Our first step towards the 'homestead' lifestyle: CHICKENS.  J and I have been researching, reading books & articles, and saving a TON of info to our Pinterest board.  I know we are in for some surprises and troubles, but we are doing our best to head them off and avoid other peoples mistakes. (J is still trying to convince me that we need to start pigs this year.  I keep reminding him that is one of the PRIMARY mistakes other homesteaders have made: being too eager and getting in too deep, too fast). So, we start our garden and chickens this year - keeping our fingers crossed that we aren't putting them in poor locations.  The chickens are the first thing branching out into our additional 2 acres.  The coop and kennel are going at the outside, back corner of our fenced in yard.  Our coop is valiantly being made from old cabinets we picked up at the local Habitat for Humanity, Re-Store.  We intend to paint, add roof, prop up on legs, and insert s...

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

Clearance Puppy

This has been a really crazy weekend. Thursday J got a call from a breeder he had been speaking to 3 or 4 months ago. We were going to go look at a puppy of his (with no real intention of buying) back then, but when we called the breeder said he just sold the last female 2 hours previously. Then on thursday he called to tell J that a buyer backed out last minute and J has first chance at getting her, so Friday we went to see her. She was discounted for us (and b/c she is older now, I think) and much more affordable - and so we brought her home, and her name is Sugar. Sug (shoog) for short. She is very sweet and calm, and listens really well. She is a yellow lab, and for all of you who have read the book or watched the movie - yes, we bought the "clearance puppy"! And actually we stopped at Blockbuster to return some movies and a big Marley & Me poster was in the window and M said :"Is that a picture of Sugar?" - I hope not! Saturday was the last 50 cen...
