End of June Already?

I can't believe it's already the end of June! Seems like the kids were just getting out of school for the summer, and now it's only 7 weeks until Brandon heads off to K-State and just less than that before the twins head back to school. Time sure has a way of slipping away from us!

Nothing major to report. Corby and the kids made it home from Oklahoma around 2:30 Sunday afternoon. They had a good visit with Charles; who is now thinking about moving back to Kansas! He's got friends from his trucking days who live in El Dorado and Leon, and there isn't much keeping him in Oklahoma. We hope he does decide to move up here. I think it would be good for him.

The twins had their 3-hour night driving session last night. Corby and I made good use of the time while they were driving - we went to the Palace and saw WILD HOGS with John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and William Macy. It was SOOOOO funny! The kids had seen it when it first came out, and they really enjoyed it too. We hadn't been to the Palace in a long time. It only costs $2.50 to see a movie there, so we only spent $5!!!

I went to mom's tonight on my way home. She seems to be doing okay, but had some questions about her toilet and whether it was working properly (IT IS!). For some reason the toilet is one of her "stress" items, and she tends to imagine problems with it when there is absolutely nothing wrong! I fixed her a frozen meatloaf dinner, got her mail, set out her pills, and visited a bit.

Had a crown fall off today, so I called the dentist and they are getting me in at 9am tomorrow. Brandon will have to take the twins to and from driver's ed tomorrow.

I just finished "Laced" by Carol Higgins Clark. It's a Regan Reilly mystery, but I don't think it's one of her better books. I am getting ready to start "Revenge of Innocents" by Nancy Taylor Rosenberg. I've read most (if not all) of her books, and enjoy them.

Isn't This Gross?

Corby lets Muffin drink out of his milk glass. Isn't that disgusting? I love animals, but I sure don't share my drinks with them. YUCK! Brandon will be home tomorrow - on his 19th birthday! His last final is at 12:30. Corby & Kaleb are headed up to help him bring his stuff home. I was planning on going, but because Hope is out on medical leave, I can't take off. That's okay - I really wasn't looking forward to carrying his stuff down 7 flights of stairs! YIPPEE - MY BABY IS COMING HOME FOR THE SUMMER! Does anyone else out there love "House Hunters" - the show on HGTV? For some reason, that show grabs me. I like to see the 3 houses the couples (sometimes singles) choose from. Of course, most of them have a lot more money than we do! Saw one last night that was a young couple in Chicago - lived in the inner city, but with 2 kids decided to move to the suburbs. Their goal was to find a house for under $1,000,000. That a million dollars folks! How can peop...

Terrible Day

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here, but suffice it to say that I had a TERRIBLE day at work! I made a huge mistake costing the company some revenue, and I feel awful! I certainly didn't need anyone to get on my butt, because I was kicking myself for the better part of the day. I know, I know, I'm human, but this was a BIG human mistake! I hate to admit that I'm human! HATE TO MAKE MISTAKES - ESPECIALLY BIG ONES! Okay, that's it. I'm having a margarita and trying to relax now. I'm done with being human for a while!
