Bridge to Teribithia

This was by far the worst movie ever. It was a sucker punch.

The movie begins with these 2 kids. One has a hard time making friends and one just moved to town. A likely pair. I really liked these kids. And then...they killed the girl off. I was so surprised, so sucker punched I cried. Who kills off the kid in a kid movie?

Ebay

Today I found myself wishing I could sell my son on Ebay.
I am sure he could command a good price.

I could describe him as;
Type: 12 Year old Boy
Condition: Clean, in good working order, some imperfections
Value: Quite valuable. 12 year investment. Additional value upon maturity.
Other attributes: Above average intelligence. Well spoken. Reads, alot. Doesn't eat you out of house and home...yet. Often self-corrects. Aptitude for electronics.

I know boys don't have near the drama that 12 year old girls have. But this week, OH THE DRAMA.

Ok, ok. Maybe I will keep him. Gosh!

Catching up

Ready...set...go!

At the beginning of July we went on vacation. Visited family and hung around--the ran prevented us from going to the beach as planned. But it was good to be off work.

When we got back from our trip, I had to go and have a mammogram...and then a biopsy. It turned out to be nothing...and I lived to tell the tale.

Sweet hubby's son is planning a wedding. I am trying to help them be realistic. HA! Oh young love. :)

Sweet hubby is going to need another surgery. He has some tests to complete and some appointments, but appears to be a done deal...end of August or early September. We believe everything will go well and this will be his last surgery.

I am not sure where the summer went. It is August and I have yet to go swimming. I have only read one book. I have no tan lines to speak of (strange Texas weather). And I just realized I have to start thinking about school clothes soon. Golly golly.

I will try for more frequent posts. Happy Wednesday!
