Scrapbooking

I am up and trying to recover from 1st Friday. Back in the day I could have stayed up that late and still gone all day(but I also did not wake up at 5:30 A.M. either). Today is Hudson's birthday party with the Lady Eagles, ya'll he is so excited ( I am so sleepy.) But as Hudson says "this is going to be the awesomest party ever!!!" And today Mommy likes the fact that I just show up. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH the simple things in life. Does not take much to make this chick happy.

Last night ROCKED, I had a good time talking with friends, but ya'll the creative ideas this chick came up with blew even my mind. Those are some neat pages. Like I said last night, the yoga must be helping get oxygen to my brain, because it sure was working last night.

Gotta go, housework is calling me...I will try to get some party pics up later this evening if I am still semi functioning....

Motherhood

Motherhood is the toughest job you will ever have. No sick days, no vacation days, no time off, underpaid, and overworked, but the benefits are the best you will ever have......Unlimited kisses and hugs, unconditional love and trust, snuggles, and all around good time. If I had had a paying job this morning I do not think my boss would have been as understanding as Hudson was. Today was cowboy parade day at school and we missed it. I was going to take Hudson to school early so I would be sure to be there today, ( I missed brown bag concert day). When I started the car this morning I knew it was not right, the service engine soon light stayed on and the car was missing really bad, took the car straight to the shop and borrowed my BIL minivan so I could take Hudson to school but by the time we got there the parade was over. And my wonderful little boy gave me the best hug and told me it was OKAY mommy you could not help it. I felt absolutely bad for him but he still got to play the games so everything was okay. I will make it to something of his at school for him. I am the luckiest mother in the world.

Thanks

I just want to thank ya'll for all the prayers on my Daddy's behalf. He is doing good so far, just a little nausea. Just keep praying that he will continue to feel good and that this will work. He had his 1st chemo yesterday and will have another one in three weeks.

We are getting ready for the cowboy parade at school tomorrow, it starts bright and early. I don't know if that is all that is going on or if there is something else. Just have to remember the camera and the cowboy outfit. ;-) If we get through in time I hope to make it to yoga tomorrow. I always thought yoga was new agey kind of stuff, but I enjoy it. Never hurts to try something one time, you might actually suprise yourself and find something you really enjoy. I have done that twice lately, once with Tae Kwon Do & now with yoga. It is not just hype when they tell you it will help with flexability, make you feel younger, and in my case I have lost 18 lbs so far. I Looooovvve my classes.
Hudson and I both are in the midst of preparing for testing for our next belt. So if you should happen to see us, we haven't lost our minds, we are practicing our stuff. Hudson thinks that it is neat that I am in TKD and he enjoys it when we do have the chance to work out at home together.( I really need to make more time for that.) I hope he still enjoys having Mommy in TKD when he is a teenager. Someone told me "The family that kicks together sticks together"

Well folks I just got a better offer, Hudson wants to go look at the Moon & Stars together so I am gone.

Help, I can't move

Maybe, doing yoga and Tkd both today was not such a smart idea!!!! I am a little sore.(LOL) I did both classes together on both Tues. and Thurs. last week and did not seem to have this problem. I grant you I have had a busier day than usual today, but do not think that should make a difference. Yoga was a great class and in TKD I got to do a great deal of sparring with a really good partner, a whole lotta workout, folks. Cannot believe I get that excited over a workout and leave ready to do another.

Please pray for my father, he will start his chemo treatments tomorrow.

Being Responsible

GO VOTE!!! I have already done my civic duty and voted. Do not think just because who you support might not win.... GO VOTE....he will not win if you do not get out there and cast your ballot. Do not depend on someone else to get your guy elected.

Tae Kwon Do

This is our group that went to Chattanooga for the tournament. We all have our medals on for pics to be sent to our local papers. I am the Green Belt in the center with the very big smile and Hudson is the cutie on the right in the front row. My Daddy is having a blast telling everyone he knows (and even some he doesn't) that I won the bronze medal in sparring and that Hudson won the silver in forms. He calls me the Kung Fu Kid. You are never to old to learn new things, I am learning more lately and am absolutely having a good time.

I know I promised pics from our elephant ride at the circus but My HP program seems to have deleted that album and one more just for the fun of it, and I had not printed those pics yet, so if Shannon & I can't figure it out they are lost. I am not happy about that.

Becoming Tech Savy

I hope I am finally getting all this done. I think I just figured out how to e-mail pics via photobucket, I have figured out how to put pics on the blog and FB, and I connected my son's new games, I either did a really great job or I just wasted a whole lot of time. LOL. I am really hoping that I did a great job.

Supposed to have gone to the Lady Eagles Basketball Game today, but with my days as busy as they have been and no slow down in sight, I had too much to do at home, namely all of the above, plus make cupcakes for party at school tomorrow, keep the washer going, and get ready for a birthday at home tomorrow and a birthday party Saturday, and all the things that Moms have to do.

I am going to take this time to get serious for a minute. I really would like to ask everyone to pray for my Daddy, he goes to the Dr. tomorrow to set up his chemo treatments,just remember him in your prayers.
