The Sandman

It was a typical B-U-S-Y Saturday! Started out the day by going to Leeker's for the free Pancake Feed! Kaitlin had to be there at 6am to help get the tables ready. She's experienced at working Pancake Feeds as she helped Corby and Kaleb at the Boy Scout feeds in past years. We did all of our errand running, and visited mom. We took her winter clothes to her, and some other things she had been asking for. We had a nice visit. Also had to make a Sam's run - needed dog & cat food, and other necessities.

Tonight Corby and I went out with our good friends, Cindy & Jerry, and their daughter and son-in-law, Megan and Mike. We ate dinner at El Rodeo, and then went to the Looney Bin to see The Sandman, a comic hypnotist. Now, I don't know how much of it I believed, but the 4 women and 4 men he "put under" did hilarious things! We originally wanted Megan to go up on stage, but after seeing what he did, we're glad she didn't. It would have been too uncomfortable seeing this 21-year-old girl who I've known since before she was born doing semi-pornographic things! All in all, it was a fun night, possibly because of the two pitchers of margaritas Cindy, Megan and I finished off! Corby and Mike stuck with beer, while Jerry had a few mixed drinks. I'm glad Corby didn't drink much, as I pretty much needed a designated driver! Since I rarely drink, it sure felt GOOD!

Me and Corby:

I am looking forward to couple of days of vacation next week. I was originally taking off Mon. and Tues., but the girl who works for me needed to take Monday off, so I switched to Tues. & Wed. At this point, I don't care what days I get off, as long as I get some time away from work!

I am still reading "The Pact" by Jodi Picoult. It is really good, but I haven't had much time to read the last few days. I am hoping to finish it by Monday or Tuesday. Not sure what I will read next. It depends on whether or not the library calls to tell my one of the 9 books I put on hold is in...

And our Saturday quote is from Dr. Seuss:

"Be who you are and say what
you feel because those who
mind don't matter, and those
who matter don't mind."

Cindy? Cindy Trenary?? She looks great. Haven't seen her in forever! -- Looks like y'all had a good time.

And... I LOVE your quote... it's one of my favorite quotes ever. It's one that I have loved for quite some time.

Believe in the Sandman Linda. I was one that got up on stage about 7 or 8 years ago and that stuff works. It's crazy. And yes, we have the video (under lock and key). ;o)

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
