On The Border Celebration

Happy Birthday to my sister Rhonda (on May 30th)! We celebrated with a family get together at On The Border this afternoon. GREAT fun! Of course, I had a couple of GRANDE margaritas! Hey, Brandon was driving, so it was okay! We had a great time. Our waiter was very gracious, considering there were 11 of us! The twins were unable to go because they both had to work, and my sister-in-law, Sandy, had a scrapbooking class so she was unable to join us. But the rest of us had a great time - great food - great family time! We're already planning our July 4th get-together. It's nice that July 4th falls on a Friday this year!

Here is a picture of the birthday girl:Here is my baby brother Mike and the birthday girl:Here's is Corby and Brandon:Here is my nephew Nick and my mom:Here is my little sister Marilyn and her significant other Mark. Not the greatest picture, but I had to get them in on this blog.And last, but not least (notice how I managed to stay out of the photos since I was taking them?) is my sister-in-law Diana and brothers Mike and Terry (Jim Bob):Here's the story on Jim Bob - his given name is James Terry, but he was always Terry growing up. Once he hit high school and then college, he started going by Jim, but I absolutely cannot call him Jim - he is Terry and will always be Terry. Several years ago, when his wife Sandy was calling him Jim (she tries to remember to call him Terry when she is around us) I decided to call him Jim Bob. So that's where the Jim Bob name came from. Hey - it's a good Kansas name. Corby's step-dad's brother, who lives in Oklahoma, is named Joe Bob - and that's his real name. At least Terry's "Jim Bob" is fake!

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!
