So I was supposed to get up early, take Chris to the museum, pick up Lauries friends and then head to the homeschool group........but his friends messed us around all morning time wise and in the end we didn't make the group at all......so we rushed to the mall for some groceries and dropped the dvd's back to the library......then headed home.....we stopped at the local playground but there were no children there so we didn't stay long and came home for lunch instead.
The library was chaos......we get to enjoy it during the school week normally when it's really quiet...so eeing all the school children there was not a great surprise. The children took their turns on the summer game and Susie won a prize....then they all guessed how many chocolate coins were in the jar...and they wrote down instructions for the 'make a 3d sea creature' competition that they all want to have a go at......
I ran into someone I know...someone I don't like at all...she had 'heard' I was homeschooling and how on earth did I have the 'discipline' for that....and she just wouldn't have the 'discipline' for that........(makes me want to vomit - she has such high and mighty opinions on things she knows NOTHING about).....so I smiled sweetly answered politely then said 'have a great summer' and walked away. I was NOT in the mood for small talk with someone I can't stand!
That makes me sound like a bitch but trust me...you have to know this person to understand.....she has the personality of a lettuce.........a limp lettuce (Mom you know her...you met her at that group and said she had NO personality lol).......and she's just plain rude anyway.....she seems to really lack social skills.....
So Chris is working today......Susie is writing back to her penpal in England...Abby is writing a letter and drawing pictures to put in with Susies letter......we're going to walk down to the mail box soon......I should have some lunch first....
I shocked the pool earlier...figured the kids won't swim today anyway as it's not that warm out.....so I threw half a litre of shock treatment in........
Oh, my shoe broke at the mall...the stitching has been coming undone for a week or two and finally it gave up! So I had to run into a store and buy a pair of shoes.....so I bought some sandals witha heel......I hate shoe shopping...I don't get the whole 'shoe' thing that excites most women......I just grabbed whatever was there that would show off my toe nails and bought them.
The amount of roadworks in town is starting to P me off...I'd be hopeless in Britain now...at leats they don't have cones everywhere here but still, there are roadworks everywhere.....
Today is a good hair day........why does that happen a day or two before I have a hair appt???? I was going to have it all cut off when I see Erin on Thursday....but yesterday and today have been good hair days and now I'm liking it long...especially this colour...Lloyd loves my hair this colour too...so now I'm not sure what to do....Lloyd says talk to Erin and see what she says...he's so sensible :)
I love the t-shirts I bought at the weekend........the 4 I bought in Mariposa are soooo nice...so comfy...I'm going back for more!!!
I lost 2lbs.......thats good.....
Talking of losing things...my Mom lost her wedding ring a few months back and was really upset.....she told me yesterday that a few days ago she went to get her gardening gloves and put them on and there was her wedding ring...stuck up in one of the fingers of the gloves!!! How lucky was that???? So she's happy that she has her ring back! I'd be distraught if I lost my ring!
