Some WILD Happenings.....

Wow, we've had some crazy encounters in the area lately. First I had an altercation with a Jr High student and his 17 yo brother - JJ and Ricco. JJ was pushing Kyle (a 4 grader) who was walking home and when I intervened I was told "get back in your house old lady." Well, you can imagine how well I responded to that! :-) So Kyle's father came down and we had a talk about what had happened and he set out for Innsbrook to *talk* to the boys. I heard from Kyle the next morning that yes, his dad had found them and that the boys would not be giving him any more problems. Oh, I so like people like that who get involved. :-) So I add him to my list of allies on the block that keep the children in line. I also introduced him to the boy and told him that in the future he'd prob be having a talk with mine and that if he ever got an attitude that my phone number was...... :-)

Aunt L had a weird happening at L's game - bloody men and kids running through the fields along with dogs and then police. Very strange. Didn't get a lot of the story because it was at that moment that S decided to throw up. Yes, S got sick and then went to bed for the night - got up in the morning and was fine. As is the fashion in our house - we had put the "throw up bucket" (yes, we have a bucket designated for this purpose only) by S's bed and in the morning she brought it to me saying "I not sick". :-) He definitely subscribes to her Gma's kind of sickness.

I was out of it on Friday. Stayed home from work and in bed all afternoon. SO tired. Today I had to go in and do payroll for all of my amigos. I do have a rough job. :-) I might as well be the boss with the hours I keep/make for myself.

Rode through the country side this a.m. to get the reg haircut. A good time was had by all. I just love getting out every 5 weeks for 1/2 to get all pampered. Harry does a GREAT job.

FINALLY got some sort of library/school thing going on in the old dining room. Now I just have to unload ALL the stuff I was given (books, tapes, workbooks, schedules, you name it) and we'll be good to go. I'm thinking along with reading and counting every day that we will actually do "school work" on Saturdays. I think they'll both be up for that. Like me they're at their best in the morning. (when the hell did THAT change)??? :-)

B&I discussed our looming summer vacation. It's going to be postponed a little this year - but will kind of work out for the best because I do believe it will co-inside with AC Fair!!! Demo derby here we come. Not to mention horse show, bull riding, and barrel racing!!!! So yes, boss man can NOT keep me down. :-)
