My Life.

While watching Grant this weekend, I watched the new movie "Brave".  If you enjoy a good cartoon every now and then, surely you will enjoy this one. I also was blessed to have to watch two boys running around instead of just one. They were way too loud, very crazy, and making a mess, but I didn't want to be a mean babysitter which made it hard to lay down the law. When I did finally manage to yell, the one boy actually listened while Grant cried making it even harder for me to be mean. After time-out they silently played the Wii all night, key word silent. My headache finally started to disappear giving me time to work on a Birthday card made with actual candy. It took forever since it is enormous, but when it was finished I was very proud of myself and of course my friend who helped me through all the chaos.

When I wasn't babysitting or working I was helping my family prepare for our Thanksgiving party. For the past couple of years its a tradition to have it at our place. They just had to put up our Christmas tree even though with out the snow it just didn't seem appropriate. All the money they put into for ornaments, bulbs, and anything else you can imagine I suppose deserves to be exposed for at least a month. Besides that we did a lot of the typical stuff everyone loves to do on the weekend like dusting, baking, and vacuuming.

I also managed to squeeze in all of my homework that seems to never disappear. I would love at least one weekend where nothing was due. Even for our break most teachers decided to cram us with tasks like we didn't have family that would also like our attention. I guess enduring a lot of obstacles is just a part of life.

  1. I agree with you, I had to work and when I wasen't working I was doing homework. My husband and daughter look at me like I don't exist. I keep on saying that it will pay off in the long run. Just think we will have a little break from school soon. Yeah! Hope you had a good thanksgiving though.
