Life lessons suck....what else can I say?
My 20th high school reunion is this coming weekend. I have been soooooo nervous and stressing over going but I have found something out recently. Because my high school has a facebook page, we have been able to come together and talk to each other and reconnect. It's amazing how many people I have talked to on facebook that I've not seen or talked to in 20 years! It's amazing. Last night, about 11 pm, I was talking to a guy that I knew back in HS that liked me soooo much and well, I wasn't so nice to him then. We talked for over an hour last night on facebook about where we are now in life and how things turn out sometimes and I actually cant wait to go to my reunion now and see the friends that I lost touch with so long ago. I get more excited each day. Now I just need to decide on a new outfit and getting hair done. Oh, and new shoes of course haha.
Well, I did it. I'm not sure why I did it...but I did. I am going to my 20th high school reunion on April 2nd. I haven't attended any of them in the past so why I had the urge to respond to this one is beyond me. I wasn't the prissy, popular, tons of friends person in high school. I had a handful of friends and that was my circle. We went through high school together and were thick as thieves for four years. Perhaps it won't be so bad to see all those people that I didn't associate with in high school. Perhaps I will make new friends and actually enjoy myself. I wasn't too crazy about going alone, so when my other half came down this weekend, I begged and begged and begged lol for him to come down next weekend and go with me. He's a good bit older than me and would soooooooo totally be out of his element. But I hope that he does decide to go with me. If he doesn't, well, that's gonna suck.

ooh might be fun though! I didnt go to my school reunion simply because I was never very close to any of my classmates. The people I was friends with in school are so not my type any more LOL
you are a lovely and vibrant woman and if you have to go alone you,ll do fine . just act like its your choice to be there alone . someone says something to you about being alone just laugh and tell them yeah but when I go home I get to go to sleep you on the other hand will have to give something up as payment for tonight. laugh and walk away.
Ok, today has been an incredibly hectic day. I get up at 5 am, get three kids ready for school. One catches the bus at 8, I take one to school for 8:30, and the other has a Dr. appointment for 9:15. Then while at the Dr.'s office, I'm dealing with my daughters doctor in person and my grandmothers doctor via the phone. Then I have to deal with my insurance company who tells me their system is down and to call back later....btw, thanks BCBS! Then I get that child back to school and myself to work by 11:30. I'm at work less than half an hour before the principal comes to my room needing to talk to me about PBIS things. Then right behind him comes the guidance counselor needing information on a student. Then a parent shows up wanting a conference, plus a meeting I already had scheduled for an online class me and a fellow teacher are taking. As of that wasn't enough...I'm still supposed to find enough time between all that to teach 26 children today!! For real!! How many of me do you all see? I see one but apparently I'm superwoman haha!!
Well, I gotta tell ya. I had a four day weekend because of Mardi Gras. Now, I am not now..nor have I ever been a big fan of Mardi Gras. I don't go to parades and beg for plastic beads and I don't like crowds and hell, most of the time I don't like people. But, I will say that I have had a most productive two extra days off. I got so much accomplished even if it wasn't exactly what I wanted to do. It was my goal to work outside in my yard but since it rained more than it didn't, yardwork didnt happen. However, here is a list of things that I did accomplish.
taxes done
car inspected
oil change in both cars
spring cleaning
grocery shopping
kids away doing volunteer work with the church
movie watching when they returned
lesson plans and related things
clothes washed
animals to the vet
hung out with a friend that came into town from Houston
andddddddd
drank my share of daquairis
Not bad for an extra two days off work.
What does that leave to do? Easy..
go to work in the morning.....BLAHHHH haha
I just watched an awesome movie with my daughters. It apparently came out in 2006 but I wasn't familiar with it. It is called The Covenant. I absolutely loved it! I also bought Letters to Juiet, which I also enjoyed. I bought The Craft also. Ive not watched it yet. We had great fun tonight watching movies.
