About Me

My photo
I am a wife and mother. I am Catholic. Over the past several years, I have found myself becoming a more "liberal" thinker. Not agreeing with many conservative policies, legislation, and decisions makes me neither "unAmerican" nor "unpatriotic". I find it pathetically laughable that individuals are placing the blame for the declining moral climate of our country on gay marriage. I believe that the No Child Left Behind Act is completely unrealistic and destructive to our already weakening public education system. I believe that education should be a privilege rather than a right. I believe in saying ma'am and sir. I believe in saying please, thank you, and you're welcome. I believe in tipping, and tipping well. I do not believe in using the Bible as a means to persecute and discriminate against others. I believe the pen is mightier than the sword. I believe that we should be teaching our youth the dangers of unprotected and unsafe sex, not shielding them from reality. I believe that brunettes have more fun! I believe that LSU in the greatest school in the world - Geaux Tigers :)

Busy and Fun Week

Monday (3/21) - Worked on homework all day - I didn't even make it out of my pajamas :)

Tuesday (3/22) - Tammy (Justin's aunt) kept the boys so that I could run errands today. I've attempted to get our truck registered in Texas three times now, and each time I'm told I need some other piece of paperwork. I can't get a TX license until I have it registered - UGH!

Wednesday (3/23) - Spent the morning cleaning house, then took Sean to McDonalds for lunch and some playtime. We go to the McDonalds by Parkdale Mall in Beaumont about once a week. We prefer that one over the one in Vidor, and there are always several other kids his age to play with.

Thursday (3/24) - Spent the day completing my application for an English teaching job at Hamshire-Fannett High School. This is the first English job that I've seen come open in the area, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I've also applied to Little Cypress-Mauricevill and Nederland although no jobs have posted there yet. This evening, I took Sean to his first "toddler tumbling" class at H&H Gymnastics. He was easily distracted with all of the activity going on around him and had to be redirected quite a bit, but he said he liked it and wanted to go back next week. :)

Friday (3/25) - Justin took today off and we took Sean to the fair (Krissy kept Liam). Sean had a blast - he won two puppies and rode tons of rides. He said his favorite ride was the ferris wheel, which he rode with Justin. I am NOT a fan of any type of carnival ride. We ate tons of totally unhealthy food, including a fried peanut butter and jelly sandwich (yes, you read correctly...) We also had the usual -lots of things on a stick, funnel cake, cajun pistolettes, roasted corn, etc. I dropped my application off at Hamshire-Fannett ISD on our way to the fair.

Saturday (3/26) - Cleaned house and worked in the yard all day - was a productive day :) Sean met the little boy who lives behind us. His name is Andrew and he looks to be about five or six. They talked over the fence for a while, and then Andrew worked up the nerve to climb the fence into our yard. They played with Sean's Gator and other toys for an hour or so until Andrew went home. Justin and I need to go over to his house one day and introduce ourselves to his parents. He seems like a really sweet kid - he helped Sean pick some flowers to give me :) Cutie pies.

Sunday (3/27) - Liam has NOT been sleeping well lately. He learned to roll over, and so now he rolls over at night, wakes himself up, and cries. Last night was a rough night, so I slept in today and missed church :( I slept until noon!! Once I was up, I woked on homework all day. This was my last assignment for this course - whoohoo!!! Only two more classes to go (and one of those is my internship class), and I am officially done :D C'mon June!! I'll graduate at the August ceremony.
