Apparently

Hannah had a tough time on her first night at camp. I go up during the day with our day campers. One of her counselors told me that she was water works for 2 hours! geesh! I'm sure she'll have a better night tonight. She showed me her cabin and I took her picture with my cell phone. Her eyes were all blood shot!

Camp BEEShorn

I wish I had pictures to share...but I don't ... yet! I just got back from the ER with Kathleen...Amanda got stung by a bee at Camp Buckhorn and had a bad reaction! It was kinda fun to watch all of the young/old/poor people go back and forth. None of them seemed to have had a real emergency, but we all know how that is.

However, everyone else at camp seems to be having a great time minus the bees!

Gas prices

Today Hannah asked me if gas prices were so high because of global warming.

so...my kid....

is a tree hugger.



I've noticed the tree-hugger-ness coming out of her more and more each day. This is something that I have been mildly aware of, but have just been tucking away. Let's face it...I really like to leave the water running when I'm brushing my teeth. I mean really...how much water could I really be wasting!

I have to pretend to be "getting ready" to get water, or "getting ready" to spit out my toothpaste. If I don't, she will be doing a body slam to get to the running water to turn it off! Jeesh.

She also goes on and on about how the "men in the orange shirts" may be doing their part to pick up the trash, but WHY WOULD THEY LEAVE THE BAGS RIGHT THERE TO PRODUCE MORE LITTER. I'm not kidding. I've explained it to her in detail and I still get a, "but still, mom, they should take it with them"

I can't win.

Doesn't she look like a teenager?

Wordpress

For the past few weeks I've been starting up a blog for the CDC at wordpress.com. If any of you would like to see that blog site, just register and then send me an email and I will "allow" your ID so that you can view it. Just thought I'd share!

What do....

Greer, SC and Baghdad, Iraq have in common?


ONLY....

a 5 degree temperature difference!

Today at work I was on the bus for 4 hours straight.

I'm not kidding.

I didn't get off the bus. We had two field trips within an hour of each other with driving time taking about 40 minutes to get from one place to the other. So ridiculous. Oh well. I got off early today, but I decided to not get directly in my car and DRIVE home. I decided to go to the conference room and take a 3 hour nap! hahaha... so.... I didn't get home til 6.

I really needed it though!

Also...is Wentworth Miller gay? And is he black or white? Just wondering cause I can't figure it out.

Random Ponderings

Have you guys ever watched Monk? That is the funniest show ever. Does that make me old? You know, since only like old and old people watch it. Dude has some problems, ya know? Pretty sure that's why it's so funny.

What is all this mess with Lindsey Lohan being a big Lesbot? I mean, HUH?*insert Britney Spears "Huh" here. Don't know what I'm talking about? Watch THIS video!* Personally, I don't think you should be able to "switch teams" once you've established yourself as a big HOBAG. Just my opinion.

Also, Did you guys know that the same people own Banana Republic, Old Navy, Gap, and Piperlime? I didn't know that!

Will Hills be the VP?? Discuss.

My Graduates

Tomorrow my beautiful, bright, intelligent, and wonderful 5 year olds graduate. I have known almost all of these kids since they started as infants! I'm going to miss them when they go off to "big school". I just can't believe it's been 5 years!

Just another super Saturday!

Hannah and I actually slept in this morning, thanks to a really late night with Relay for Life. I never EVER wake up before she does....until today! It was really nice! We did just about nothing for the morning and then I finally had to drag us both out of bed so we could actually go to Bloom for some groceries!

It was so pretty outside. I mean... I can't believe we are actually getting a Spring! It's so strange to be in South Carolina and it's not 100 degress in May. I just don't know what to do with that!

Anyway, we got back home and pulled some weeds and then cleaned up around the house. Hannah really helped a lot. She hates to clean, but she didn't complain much today. Around 4 a few of my friends came over and we watched 27 Dresses and P.S. I Love You. Great movies. We had a lot of fun!

I love Saturday's!
