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.

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...

What a Day.

Last night there was a heck of a thunderstorm, booming and crackling away, which of course causes my dog to freak out. So I put her in a kennel (this one is smaller than her usual one because for one I thought she may feel safer in a more confined space, and for two I figured she couldn't tear it apart like the other one because it gave her less space to move.) and she was actually a little bit better in this kennel. well, at about 3:00 a.m. I Got up to tell her to be quiet, then at 5:30 a.m. I heard a huge crack of thunder that startled J and I awake but Prints was quiet. Suspicious, I went to check on her, and she seemed fine other than that she completely demolished her blanket and reaked of urine (she was so scared she peed.) Then in the morning at about 8:30 Justi and I went to go to the gym, but low and behold I had forgotten to roll up the windows in the view. The seats were soaked, and I mean SOAKED. So we took Justi's car and put a towel on M's car seat. Af...
