Happy Presidents day!

Well hello all! thanks for the responses regarding my lost pictures! Seriously...I will pay for printing for all of those who send pics....I just really want to have those memories back. There are so many life experiences I can teach my girls through those pics...you know like don't agree to be the driver when going to Mexico (for all of those not there on that trip...my car was stolen....but we got it back.....completely stripped and cleaned...but in one piece!) The picture recovery will be a long process but very neccessary!

Happy to say we are all well again and I've put back on the 3 pounds I lost puking...damn....
We are enjoying the day off and I am looking forward to Spring Break! You know I do love the teacher schedule....and for all of you who don't understand what our daily routine is...PLEASE believe we work very hard...what summers off...not really. Most of us have to work a second job just to make it. I love teaching but I don't know if I will stay in the profession for 10 more years. We shall see what happens........

worst week ever...

Well hello all! This last week has been so horrible! The kids both got some kind of deep Amazon-jungle bug and have been throwing up and pooping all over the place! Seriously I've washed our comforter 4 times already this week! It's a sad, sad thing when they are throwing up and crying and you can't do anything to comfort their rumbling bellies except hug them and talk gently to them.

To make matters worse, I was looking for all my pictures and photo albums and realized they didn't even make it to this house!! I ripped the place apart and wound up with zilch! I am REALLY upset about this...as of now I have no pictures of our rowdy Spring Break trip to Mexico...no pics of my wordly travels...none of my 21st birthday! What is most upsetting is that in 20 some odd years..I have nothing to show my girls what NOT to do (like 'drink' the tequila worm). it's been a bad weekend.....
