a whole month has passed by...

where does the time go, so much to do not enough time in the day to blog, even comment or catch up lets see how well i can try in the time i am cooking dinner...

usfa happened, i was treasurer, secretary, registration, arts and graphics, po box. crap did i need help!! there were only eight of us helping put this thing together. we had 72 pre registered, we planned on 100 people showing up. we ended up with 216. crazy weekend and then some. met some great people in the program some great keepers of our history and some new faces wanting to help. i just finished the minutes, i was in charge of the first half and another gal, who is the official secretary, was in charge of the second half, mind you we had the whole 3 days to cover i only took notes for friday night and saturday day and could not keep up with registration and raffle and notes. so we decided since it was being recorded that we could stop taking notes, WRONG in all there were only 13 hours of recording my notes covered way more than the recorder did!! So after 3 week we finally got the minutes done, now i have the registration forms to finish tabulating in.

oh did i mention i am selling avon. yeah they give scholrships to representatives and their children and grandchildren!! KU is expensive and meal plans are like 3000!! dont even think about how much the dorms are!! we still dont know if she is getting into the military, they havent got back with the medical files yet she may be medically incapable of going. oh and i forgot she is talking with her bio-dad now. yeah i think i mentioned it. i am doing better with it.

 therapy is going well and my oldest is doing well with her therapy. there is some sanity back in our house my teenage niece is no longer here. i stood my ground with her and her game did not last long here, she refused to try to mend the relationship with her mother, she refused to admit she has ever done anything wrong in her life, she is a victim and a runner and i was sad and glad to see her go my relationship with a is improving greatly.

oh since i started writing this, my sister locked her keys in her car so i called aaa for assistance then went over there to help her get out or into her car then took the kids back here and did i mention i caved and we got a wii today. yes it is now 11 in the pm and the children just went to bed, they were a bit excited to say the least.

does anyone else feel like it is the apocalypse right now? i mean the horrific earthquake/tsunami that hit japan, the nuclear crisis, the not wars in lybia, i mean my god did we just bomb another country? dont get me wrong i was so proud when the citizens started their uprising in tunsinia and then won their freedom in egypt and then the lybians and i was like a big cheerleader screaming yeah, yeah and then like we bombed them. i mean like why, i ask you are the people in darfur less needy? what about south korea, i mean they were bombed completely unprovoked, twice and we said to the north...' tsk tsk now dont be so provacative' and we told the south dont get upset it was a misunderstanding now. seriously i am not stupid. if we are going to make a statement to stand up to dictators there are other countries we certainly could have helped out and maybe even won the day, quickly, before this.

liz taylor, geraldine ferraro, women of great stature and whom i highly admired are now gone. i will be 38 years old on april 5. i have a grey streak in the front of my head. i mean it is a streak of hair! well i am babbling now, hopefully i can write again soon and maybe catch up on all you guys, it gets kind of lonely in the real world these days...

take care of each other and yourselves thanks so much for sticking around, i miss you too g-man...

I think that our society is crumbling. But somehow we will muddle on. I wonder will we ever learn from our mistakes. I wonder what kind of world we are leaving the young children of today.
