going to mexico

sooooooo........passport came in and we are booked!!!!!!! going on monday the 5th!!! so excited, yet a little scared. here is my list of must haves.....swimsuit, toxic suit, full body armor, and machine guns....after that we are good to go! LOL.

BLAH

I so need to vent so here it is! I hate Jim being the coach of his mens softball team bc we have to put up the money for everything. with that being said, we ordered new jerseys from boombah.com and they totally screwed it up and bc it has already shipped i cannot just cancel it. i chewed out the rep from there royally, and all he could say was when we get the package back we will refund your account the 220.00 bucks! but they charged me for shirts that never shipped and charged me after i cancelled the frickin order!!!! and to add to that my passport did not come in today, and i am getting close to the wire bc we are to leave for Mexico on may 4th. however, we will be there for cinco de mayo which is totally cool! if we get to go bc the state department SUCKS on getting ppl the things that they have ordered and paid for! on a lighter note, brooke start dance class today. it is a mix of ballet and tap! she is totally excited for and so am i! she did not like the fact that the tap shoes are black and not pink :(.....LOL. i am still sticking with the bosu class and it is hard, but damnit i am gonna do it! i can feel a difference from it verses just going in and doing cardio on machines and circuits on the weights. So YAY!

going to mexico....stuffed in jims suitcase, and crazy family

So, my passport has not came in yet, and I so need to book our trip. It is two weeks from Monday, and I still don't have my passport! I now also bc of this hate the USPS and the IRS. Oh, and the State department! Anyway, it has been a rainy weekend so far, but I love it. Our softball games were cancelled bc of the rain, so that means we have more rain out makeups.....grrrr. I just wanna say, I am soooooo glad that my family isn't the only dysfunctional one out there! It happens to everyone, and for that I am relieved. I have a few black sheep in my family, and that maybe more than everyone elses one black sheep, but they still have at least one. Let me just say, I am sooooo glad it is not me! I got a crazy sister, an aunt that has been dying, lying, and addicted for 12 years, and an uncle who is the biggest religious hypocrite EVER! That religious hypocrite also applies to my "sickly" aunt. I truly feel sorry for their parents! I hope we raise Brooke to be better than that, I hope! I just wanna shake all three of them and scream at them, "what the f&*# are you doing? you are F-ing retarded!" If I could just do that, then I would feel better! HAHAHAHA! Anyway, that is all for now. Thanks and come again!

MEXICO

So, one passport in and one to go. Mine should be in tomorrow and then we book and on May 4 thru 8th we are in MEXICO!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY EASTER!!

I just wanted to tell my few Internet followers to have a happy Easter, and be safe and dry. Sara, have been so busy with the family, but maybe tomorrow evening if you guys are done with your Easter festivities, we can get to get together. I think I am only like 20 miles from you so hopefully we can get together. I will call you or something.

leaving on a jet plane

No seriously, no planes, but we are going to Houston! We are gonna spend 4 days there! Brooke is sooooo excited. We will be in Pasadena. We leave today around 4ish so we should be there around 8ish.

Passports

Oh, I forgot to mention we have both applied for our passports and are awaiting them to be delivered....as soon as we know that then we are going to Mexico!!! YAY for us!

Baseball Season

So, MLB is upon us and that is all we do is watch baseball. Well sports all together. Every time a season ends another begins....grrr. And on top of that, Jim plays stinking baseball tourneys every weekend, and don't get me wrong I love going and watching....but it has became a nonstop ordeal. Still looking for patio furniture, and at this point I am wondering if we are every going to find something we both like. He goes for function and simplicity....I on the other hand like beauty and style. So there you see our issue. School is almost out and Brooke cant wait, but I am beginning to rethink this stay at home mother thing. I don't know if I can handle it without a break all day! Does that sound as bad as it looks in writing? I love my kid, but I am human. Anyway, everyone else is blogging about babies and pregnancy, I got nothing! Anyway, that is all for now. Thanks and come again!

sleepy sunday

So, we spent all day at the softball tourney and got home at midnight. I am soooo tired. We now have to go to the rent house to do some last minute things before the new tenant moves in, BUT we got a tenant finally! YAY. Brooke spent Friday night with Jim's parents and they took her to see Mother Goose at Casa Manana and she loved it! Then on Saturday her and her gma planted flowers, colored eggs, and had an easter egg hunt. She came home with all kinds of goodies. But she had a blast as usual. We are now on the hunt for patio furniture. It is our 7 year anniversary gift to each other, and we cannot find anything we both like. It seems like we have looked everywhere. So we will continue to look. Jim applied for his passport on Friday, and I will on Monday bc that is when my birth certificate will be in. So hopefully on monday after we know how long it is going to take for both of them, we can book our trip! And we got our taxes finished and we dont owe as much money as we thought so we are both so thankful for that! Have I mentioned that I hate the IRS! Very much! Anyway, today is going to be a normal sunday for us except going to the rent house. We clean, do laundry, yard work etc....Anyone have patio furniture suggestions please comment. We have looked at lowes, home depot, sams club, big lots, and walmart. Still are going to garden ridge, but other than that no idea!

SICK KID AND TAXES

So, Brooke is sneezing and coughing today....just allergies, but i kept her home anyway. I dont like it when my baby, yes she is five but she is still my baby, is sick. She is in a great mood, just sneezing like crazy. So, I went to get my taxes filed yesterday.......and I dont owe as much money as I thought!!! I was sooooooo excited. I mean, we never get money back except once....but that was the year we bought our second house...and that is why. But, we are so happy now bc we dont owe as much, and so we can ease up on the budget. I do want to add that I still hate the IRS, and anyone associated with them! HAHAHA. I want to go workout, but she refuses to go the YMCA childcare center. She says they just sit there, and she needs to entertained. HA! She gets bored. What can I say to that? I do have a ton of paperwork to do here though so maybe it is good I is good I stay home. Anyway, that is it for now.....Thank you...Come again!
