CAL is working for his father this summer. He really wants to save money for a paintball gun, new sneakers for his wonderful mother, IPOD touch, netbooks, missions trip next year, and on and on and on. Last night he actually purchased his own New Balance sneakers.
He is becoming quite a responsible young man. I am so proud of him. He still has his moments, but don't we all.
It was so much fun to take him to the mall and watch the wheels spin in his head to get the most out of the funds that he had.

Mother - Son Time
This morning at 5:30 a.m. I woke CAL up and we headed to the park for some early morning soccer. We played hard and had a fantastic time. I had to be home by 6:30 so that I could get ready for work but we forgot to take his phone (for the time).
We arrived home at 7:00 so I had to bust a move to get ready and to work by 8:00. This might be a couple days a week thing for us. I had a really good time and CAL is really improving in soccer.

No yard work
You have no idea how much I am enjoying the fact that I don't have a single stitch of yard work to do. After 18 years of constant flowers, grass, and whatnot, I am free. I don't have to worry about poison ivy, work boots, work gloves, or other yard work related items. I don't have to spend hours weeding and trying to get the family to help.
You have no idea how good it feels to no longer own a home. Home ownership is probably the most overrated thing in peoples lives. The home will own you, you don't own it.

Not doing so good
The running thing didn't go so well this week. I got up to walk this morning but just could not bring myself to run. My feet hurt and when your feet hurt your entire body hurts. We went last night to look at new sneakers. I think I found what I want at Sports Authority but have to wait a week or two until payday. I just don't have $50.00 to spend on sneakers right now. I know that a good pair of running shoes should go for around $100.00, but I just cannot spend that kind of money until I become real serious, which I don't plan on doing.

$300 later
The Jeep was shaking violently when you used the brakes. I knew this was going to happen. We only have 28,000 miles on the car and we needed all new brakes, routers, pad, Ferrari parts, and/or whatever else is involved with the brakes.
Why did I know this was going to happen? I knew because for three years my husband would drive out of our neighborhood, come to the top of the hill, put the Jeep in neutral and coast down off the hill using the brakes the entire way.
I begged him each and every time that he did this to please put the car in gear and let the engine slow the car down. This was his method to save gas????
$295.25 later we have all new brakes, an oil change, and a few other minor things. It was funny the mechanic was at a loss as to explain why the brakes were as bad as they were. I just acted dumb and didn't say a word because that is what a good wife does, she covers up her husband stupidity. Then she blogs about it because, honestly just having the mechanic know was not enough, I have to let the entire Internet know!

Speaking of....
In my last post I was complaining about my feet. As I stated I just think that the strain of my weight pounding down on them when I run is just too much. My ankles stiffen up after sitting for a few minutes and I look like a little old lady when I finally stand and try to move. It is embarrassing, especially at work. The joint pain is ridiculous at times.
I don't know maybe this is what it is suppose to feel like when you get older, but I really don't want to accept that. I am only 40+ not 90! I think losing weight would probably help more than anything. I am working at it but it is much slower than I would like. I did hear something the other day that when you start an exercise program you should not expect to see significant results for 12 weeks! 12 weeks? Are you kidding me? I cannot do something for 12 weeks without some bit of success for encouragement.

it's a beach day
but we won't be going. Cal has an event with his youth group and the car desperately needs something with the brakes fixed. I am pretty sure it is suppose to be in the high 90's. Our local park has a pool and the boys are insisting that they want to get a pass. This should be interesting, we are not pool people. I love this town and all it has to offer.
I have not had a lot of success running this week. My feet really hurt and I think they might be giving way under the strain of my massive body mass pounding down on them when I run. I want to get my bike out of storage but what to do with it after that is a mystery as I don't have any place to keep the bike.

Basketball or Ski Club
CAL will have to make a decision at the end of the summer. Will he play basketball or will he try snowboarding? I personally love to ski but it is a rather expensive sport and even more expensive then I remember (since I have not skied in twenty years).
I would love for CAL to learn to ski and have priced out Burton snowboard boots and Burton snowboards. If I could earn a little more money this would definitely be something I would encourage him to participate in. There is nothing better than coming down a ski slope at night with a group of good friends.
EvoGear.com has all the equipment that he would need to be the coolest kid on the hill. They have a unique way of combining culture, fashion, and sports together. I also appreciate a store that offers an outlet and free shipping (on orders over $100). They also have a complete line of skateboarding and wakeboarding items. The local park has this huge skateboarding park and CAL would love to try his hand at skakeboarding again. I just really need to get health insurance before he becomes too interested. They can also take their bikes on the ramps and he is enjoying the ramps that they have in the woods.

I have tried for years
to understand how liberals think. I am sure I have finally figured it out.
When something happens think of the most intelligent, logical, and reasonable response. OK have you done that? Now think the exact opposite...... There you go.
I just have such a hard time understanding how these people think. I have a FB friend that for some silly reason still allows liberals to comment on his posts. Today this "lady" stated: Do you think it will stop the drug cartel to treat innocent people like criminals.........? I just had to respond with: "Innocent people like criminals" What does the word illegal mean to you? You must be using one of those liberal dictionaries.

It must be a good day for
It must be a good day for a post about education. CAL received his PSAT scores back the other day and has declared he is a genius and can now skip the rest of his high school career. He has determined that he is at a post high school level (because it said that somewhere on his scores).
I think my boy is a little too big for his britches. I would love to see him take a few college classes at a college that is associated with our church. At least take his first year there. I am determined that I will not pay a single penny toward his education unless it is at a Christian college. I have no desire to pay to have my son brainwashed.
I do have to find a way to bring him back down to reality. I have been looking into some online testing to try to convince him he is not quite as gifted as he thinks.
I will have to use a test generator and make up a really hard test that tells him he is at his appropriate grade level. I might even make it say he is below level that way he has something to work towards.
CAL is smart and obviously gets his brains from God because I really didn't have much to do with that.

I must be out of my mind
I have agreed to "allow" CAL to take piano lessons again. He will now be wasting my money (oops) with a teacher from his school. The teacher has the ability to turn CAL around but I don't know if CAL is up for the challenge. We have paid so much money over the past few years to get him lessons and honestly I just don't think he has the hubby's love of music.
Missions Trip
A couple weeks ago we thought that CAL might be able to go on a mission trip to NYC. It looks like the deal has fallen through. He was so looking forward to it, I feel badly for him.
Now he has his sight set on a "real" missions trip. The youth group went to Honduras this past year and he would love to be able to take part next year. There are a few obstacles, with money being the biggest. I have been looking at sites online that help with fundraising ideas for non profit. I must say that I was pretty impressed with FastTrackFundRaising.com, they have a candle fundraiser, but I think my favorite was the fundraiser cards. This is a win-win situation. We would be able to spread The Gospel and raise money at the same time.
The site had several very unique ideas such as a lollipop fundraiser, cookie dough, beef jerky, and other impulse type items that they can sell to other kids. The best type of fundraiser is when you have people coming to you, instead of you going to them.
I am nervous about my little boy leaving the country and going to a foreign land to try to save souls, but I am also so very excited for him. I just have to figure out how to raise money and he might be on his way.

Lunatic
My husband is a lunatic. Honestly he had someone call me at work today to deal with a problem and then got all upset when I said I was not dealing with the issue at work.
Got home made the phone call and five minutes later everything was settled.
It truly sounded like a move his ex-wife would have pulled. For years he has complained that she didn't have respect for his jobs. Today he had no respect for mine. Of course if I were to mention that to him he would become a lunatic again.

More shopping
I had to run to Dress Barn to find a shirt for the wedding. I have no idea what I was thinking. Go buy a nice fancy shirt to prepare and serve food in. I noticed at some point in the night that there were several stains on the front. The stains are most likely cranberry juice which are NOT coming out.
While shopping I picked up a shirt for one of my other skirts. I actually found clothes that I liked. It was like a miracle from God. After Dress Barn I thought I would stop into Fashion Bug just to see if there was anything I liked better. Of course Fashion Bug clothes are much more relaxed but....... I saw at least five or six things that I really just wanted to purchase on the spot. Oh how I wish I had money. I will go back in a week (after I get paid) and see what is left. Fashion Bug moves their clothes very quickly.
My next purchase is going to have to be some jelly roll hiders. I wonder if corsets would do the trick. Then, of course, I really need to buy some sneakers if I am going to continue running. This week was a bad week, cold and rainy.

My first in a long time
I attended a wedding reception last night. I believe the last wedding/reception that I was at was my sisters when I still lived at home.
Oh my word, I don't think I have been this tired in a very long time. My very good friend asked me if I would help her with the food. She was the woman in charge. I never in my dreams thought it would be as much work as it was. It will definitely be my first and last wedding that I make that kind of commitment.
There were suppose to be 150 to 200 guests but I know that there were several empty tables. I thought it was a strange time to have a wedding: Friday night at 8, but what do I know.
There was so much food left over, the hard work came trying to find storage for everything, washing all the dishes, and cleaning those goofy chocolate fountains. I suggested that we just leave everything until morning and have some people come back (I would not have been one of them of course) but no one thought my suggestion was appropriate.

Might be my fault
A very good friend of mine blogged that she has been over sensitive and depressed lately. I think it might be my fault. For the past couple of years, I have cried at the drop of a hat. It has been embarrassing, especially if you know me because I have a VERY strong (slightly obnoxious) personality. The past couple weeks that seems to have changed dramatically. Maybe I sent the crying bug south to her.
We have a prayer meeting on Wednesday nights. Usually I cry through the entire prayer time. A couple times I started crying long before our prayer and praise time started. I could not figure out why I was being such a baby and why I was crying over total strangers and their problems.
I feel bad that my friend is feeling this way because I know how she feels. I know how it feels to think you are a total failure and angry/sad about everything. I also know how it feels to think your life is meaningless and just a waste of time.
My heart and prayers go out to my friend. Hang in there!

Not so good
It has rained and has been very cold (below 50) here in New England for the past three days. That type of weather does not make it easy to get up at 5 am and go for a walk/run. It also doesn't help that with the cloud cover it is darker than I would like.
Therefore, I have not ran for three days. I think my body might have needed a little break because my heels were killing me. I also need to invest in a good pair of sneakers. If I don't get back to work I might need apidexin to give me a little boost.
Rumor has it that the weekend is suppose to be nice so I hope to do a lot of discovering in our neighborhood. Last weekend we found the high school. It is pretty big and they have a very nice facility. It also explains why the local park is always empty. They have several sports fields, a track, and a pretty big bleacher set up for the fields.
The kids in this town are very fortunate, they have parks coming out of their ears. This is such a kid friendly place.

Love it!
My purchases arrived yesterday and I am wearing one of the skirts and sandals today. I was very worried about this online purchase because I had been searching all summer and could not find anything I liked.
I love everything. I was able to purchase three skirts and two pairs of sandals. Now I just have to find shirts that hide all the junk in my trunk. I think button up the front does the best job of this.
I also have to purchase a few slips and shorts to go under the skirts. I have a pair of shorts but they are pretty uncomfortable (like I can barely breathe after I put them on, let alone wear them all day).
I might try to post some pictures later. I am also thinking about starting my picture blog up again, but I won't try to do a 365 blog, that was just too much work.

Can someone explain
Can someone please explain to me how my readership has fallen from an average of 75 to 80 visitors a day to 15 to 20?
It all happened on May 24th. I had 84 visitors and then the very next day I had 31. That has been my high ever since. Some days have been as pathetic as six. I have looked back to my blog and I don't see anything that I have done to cause this drop in numbers.

Didn't run
I didn't run this morning because of the rain and now I don't think I will run because of the hazy, hot, and humid weather.
Crazy day. This certainly will not help with my weight loss program, but as my "friend" pointed out to me yesterday, the two doughnuts that I had because it was free doughnut day didn't help much either. Did you get your free doughnuts?
If you did you might be searching for nuphedragen reviews this morning online. If so you have come to the right place.
Along with my doughnuts I purchased two large ice teas. I had way too much caffeine and was pretty loopy all day. It might have also had something to do with the fact that it took me hours to get to sleep last night.

Book Reviews
I have received noticed that the book review that I was writing for his discontinued their service for the summer.
I really enjoyed being a part of this program except I never felt I had enough time to read the books. I always felt rushed and didn't enjoy them as much as I normal do reading.
If I am asked to continue in the fall when the program is reinstated I think I will be much more selective about the assignments I accept.
The give-aways didn't work. At least they didn't work on my blog. I don't think I will be offering those if I continue.
The last book I reviewed, The Last Christian, was won by arcanai. Send me your address and I will mail the book to you.

Strange Day
So far it is a very strange day. A few moments ago it was pouring rain, now the sun it out and it is HHH, I think I would rather have the rain.
Saturdays are the day we usually spend the morning in the park but it won't happen today!
As some of you know I celebrated my birthday a few days ago. When you get to be my age it is not a celebration anymore. The good news is it will become a celebration in later in life. You celebrate that you are still alive.
Anyway. WB had a gift for me but didn't send it. I was really looking forward to the tube of blue goo that she originally purchased for CAL for eczema treatments, but is really no longer required. I am sure she can use my gift for her wrinkle cream!
Strange day, strange mood, strange blogging!

I have come to determine
that my mouth causes me more stress and any other one thing. I am constantly running my mouth which cause situations that I then stress about for days or weeks.
I wonder what the appropriate prayer would be for this.......... to be mute?
I have become good friends with a few ladies at work. One of them leaves funny messages on my machine and if others were to listen to them they might think she is being inappropriate. She is not, that is just the relationship that we have. The problem came in when someone overheard these messages and started complaining about her. I came to her defense but instead of leaving it at that, I then proceeded to talk about others who have said inappropriate things that were NOT jokes.
One of these happened to be this ladies husband. He just really rubs me the wrong way, pompous, arrogant individual. Anyway because of my mouth, someone went back and repeated this to my boss, who then wanted to know in detail about the things this ladies husband had said, and he wanted to hear her messages. Great! I should have just kept things to myself instead of complaining about him.
She has not said a word to me in a few days, and usually she is in my cubbie everyday. I feel so bad because I know that she was only joking and told my boss this but it appears that things have been said.
I sent a apology to my boss saying that I should not have been complaing about him to others in the office. What I really wanted to say is that someone should not be running to him to tell him the details of conversations. What is said in our cubbies should stay in our cubbies. I have learned a lessson that I should have learned long before now, look over the cubbie walls before you start talking.

All about getting deals
If you have read my blog for long you know that I am all about getting the best deal possible. There was a time when price was virtually no object but those days are long gone. I am constantly on the look out for web sites that help me find great deals and I was excited to find a site offering Boden vouchers the problem is, it is a UK site.
So this posting is for all my UK friends (Rachel Lucas). If you are looking for deals online from top retailers and top brands Savoo .co.uk is the site to be on. Many deals are exclusive and you will not find them anywhere else.
Another interesting site to look at for fashion news is Style.com. Here you can find information about runway shows, fashion models, designers, and virtually anything to do with the fashion world. Now you all know how important fashion is to me. I have been labeled a trend setter by almost everyone I know.
I particularly enjoyed the link people + parties. My life would not be complete until I find out about Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, and Angelina Jolie to name a few.

Cal only has a few days left of school. If the truth be told I think he has been done for a few weeks. He is very excited about all of his summer plans. Honestly he must have more up his sleeve than I know about because it doesn't seem very exciting to me.
I will be working and therefore I will be the controller of the car all summer. Thankfully God gave us the perfect house in the perfect location that he does not have to be stuck home, he can do many things within walking distance.

Doesn't help my "diet"
The hubby took me to Applebee's for my birthday last night. I really enjoy that restaurant and if you order off the two for $20 menu it is quite affordable. It is even more affordable if you have a mypoints.com gift card but mine didn't arrive in time. That's ok because that mean that I will just have to go again when the gift card arrives.
This is not the best thing for my diet, maybe I should be looking at the apidexin scam reviews.
We order the mozzarella sticks, I get the Oriental Chicken Salad - grilled, and the hubby tends to get the Three Cheese Chicken Penne. My only complaint (actually it is the hubby's complaint) is the portion of his dish is VERY small.

Running problems
Other than the fact that most mornings my legs just don't want to work, or the fact that I cannot run more than .2 miles without walking for a short distance, things are going ok!
The annoying problem that I get stones in my shoes. It seems that every morning just a few short steps into my run I will start to feel small stones in my sneakers. It doesn't matter if I stop and take them out I will feel them again within seconds.
I do have to take WB's advise and go purchase a new pair of "running" shoes because mine just don't cut it.
