Wow, it has been a while since I posted anything. It's funny, there has been a lot of little things going on, yet it seems like there really hasn't been anything worthy of blogging about.
I see on my friend Philips blog that his brother Mark is exploring the option of running for Lt Governor of Arkansas in the next election. Personally, I think that is awesome. It would be good to get someone in office who is down to earth and understands the needs and concerns of the general population. We as a Country need to stop electing these "Professional" politicans who are so out of touch with the people they represent. Take Nancy Pelosi for example, she is completely off her rocker but she thinks that she represents a good portion of the American public...I can promise you that if she came to Arkansas she would get a rude awakening as to what the general public thinks of her hairbrain ideas. So, back to my original thought...Good Luck to Mark! Maybe he will have a position on his cabinet for Philip and I? Wait a minute, does the Lt Governor have a cabinet? Guess I should brush up on my Civics and Government a little!
So, what else has been happening...let me see, Ah Yes! Today, I took Lily and Connor both to the doctor and they have matching ear infections in their right ears. In addition, I asked about Lily grinding her teeth at night so they took an X-Ray of her tonsils and adenoids...yep, you guessed it, they have to be taken out. I am nervous about this but at the same time I'm relieved to know what may be keeping her (and me) from sleeping at night. Lily has had a lot of issues with going to bed lately. I have tried being calm and soothing, I have tried being strict, I have resorted to bribery, and nothing works...it always ends up with her throwing a fit and having a meltdown, screaming that she can't go to sleep! I welcome any suggestions that anyone may have, at this point, I'm willing to try anything. 4-5 hours of sleep each night just isn't cutting it for me.
My friend Jackie Dolan called me today so we could work out a schedule for Turkey season. April 11th is opening day and I can't wait. Hopefully a few gobblers will be in the sights of my trusty shotgun!
This week is Spring Break! I know that the faculty and students were ready. There have been some idiots calling in bomb threats and also threatening some of the faculty right before the break. I hope they catch whoever is doing this and give them the maximum punishment. The kids probably feel like they are in prison instead of school what with all the additional security measures and searches going on. Hopefully the rest of the school year will go on without incident.
Since it is spring break, Andria and I decided to take the kids somewhere. Tulsa seems to be the popular destination and we may just do that as well. We have been to the Tulsa Zoo several times but never to the aquarium...I guess we'll leave it up to the kids and let them decide where we go and what we do, after all, it's their spring break.
Well, I have rambled on long enough! If you are on Spring break this week, hope you enjoy it. If you are like a lot of us and are still working this week, keep in mind that tomorrow is Wednesday and we are halfway through this week already! Hang in there, just a few more days until Friday! Wahoo!
