Car Trouble Part 2

On the way to the games today my car started acting up again. (the side the dealership would not fix a couple of weeks ago because it was not bad enough.) Well guess what it is bad enough now. It started acting up without any warning and in the middle of holiday traffic. (glad I did not leave for Disney World yesterday like we were going too.) I must admit I lost my cool with the guy at the dealership and told him this would not have happened if they had fixed it when they had it. He was real nice to me and kept his cool and let me calm down (I then apologized to him) and said he was on his way with a used car for me to use while they have mine. We were a little late for the basketball game and had to unload everthing from my car, in front of the coliseum no less, (hey it's a mom mobile) so the tow truck could tow my car and I would have the necessary stuff with me. Let's hope it does not take long to get the car repaired this time and that they remember to rehook everything so we don't have a repeat of the "giggles"

Happy Thanksgiving

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.
Hudson is thankful for his "feasts." He has had 2 meals in 2 hours. Poor boy was beside himself when I cooked Ham Steak w/ scrambled eggs, O.J., & decaf coffee for his breakfast. Then he had Turkey, english peas, mashed pots w/ gravy, and homemade cranberry compote. Now he's worried if we might miss supper. LOL Where does he put all of that food?
I am thankful for my family and friends. We were not able to spend Thankgiving with my parents this year, Daddy had his chemo treatment Tues., but we are very thankful that we still have him with us. I am very thankful for my wonderful friends who have been there for me through everything. (including heeding the call to homeschool Hudson.) And I am most thankful for being Hudsons Mom.

Even more reason

Well I have given even more people reason to think I have lost my mind. I am going to homeschool Hudson after the 1st of the year. I am going to let him finish this semester out while I get things organized, lessons figured out and materials purchased. This is something that was on my heart along time ago, but he needed speech help that I could not provide. He is now fine with his speech and I can continue to help in that area now. But the Lord has called me to homeschool. (He had to work hard to get my attention, because I wasn't listening. NOOO! not me Lord, you know I can't do that.) Guess what I can do that, through him and we are looking forward to it. Just keep us in your prayers because this is a BIG step for all of us.

This plus everything else (TKD, Yoga, Scrapbooking) gives most of my family reson to think I have Lost My Mind. Yes, I have, but I am really enjoying the new me lately.

Awards Night

Tonight is awards night at TKD. The night you receive your new belt if you passed testing. Hudon and I both tested, so tonight we should both have new colored belts. So much fun. I will post some pics later.

Basketball

OK Season finally started. Last night our Lady Eagles had their 1st home game, it was good. Boy did I miss watching them play, I really enjoy myself. Still do not understand some of the calls, but am trying to pay attention and learn. Their next game is Thurs at S. Ala, and looks like we are going.....Can you say ROAD TRIP. (Too bad I don't like to travel. LOL) Go Eagles.

Anybody that has known me awhile thinks I have REALLY LOST MY MIND, I have never cared for sports (except Nascar)(loved Dale Earnhardt.) Now this is my 3rd season with the Lady Eagles (loving every moment.). This summer I started TKD and just a few weeks ago I joined Yoga, oh man I am really enjoying both to those. (Sports and exercise have never been something I have been guilty of til now;p) I do have one other activity that causes some laughs in my family, Scrapbooking, simply because I was the one that went to all the functions without a camera. Now I almost always have my camera with me, do not want to miss a good shot.

I have learned one thing over the past couple of years. Life is too short (sometimes extremely so) too let it pass you by. I am going to enjoy what time I have and fill my son's life and my life with some wonderful happy memories. Enjoy it you only get one chance at life.
