Is history repeating itself?

Well, I haven't really listened to the news a whole lot until the President came on last night and talked about the stock market and the whole ordeal with that. And it made me wonder: Are we headed into another Great Depression? The reason why it is down sounds a lot like why it crashed towards the end of the 1920s. Banks loaned out too much money to people who really and truly had no intentions of paying the loan back and when one person does this, it's bad enough; but when more people are doing it, the situation turns ugly.
It's not the American people's fault, no, it's the banks trying to get greedy and issue out more than what they should have. It's hard to believe that they have "financial advisors" and this happened and I come to the conclusion that obviously these so-called advisors don't know how to advise properly. I pray that the situation turns for the better and that the banks learn from their mistakes...
...who knows, maybe they should have paid more attention in History class when the crash of the Stock Market was taught and this whole thing could have been avoided!

Just in a bad mood!

I know everyone has had one of these days! I'm just in a pissy mood! I really can't tell you why, all I know is that everything is bothering me...so I have distanced myself from the ones that I love in order not to get short with them. Except Michael, the dude won't leave me alone; it's almost like he wants me to be mean to him. I've told him to leave me alone and yet, el hombre won't go away! No, he goes and pokes my ear, then he stands in front of my tv and asks me, "what are you watching?" Well nothing with your fat head in the way!!! AAAARRRRGGG! Please tell me I'm not a bad person for feeling this way, it's just one of those days! I'm praying that it's gone by tomorrow...it might be that I didn't get my caffiene in today!

What's mine is theirs, what's their's is their's!!!



My two babies...drinking MY M&M shake!

We went to Fuddrucker's for dinner the other night and for the most part, I love eating burgers with a shake. My kids make a mess with anything and everything, so I get the shake and I let them take turns in drinking some.

WELL, let me tell you something, it became the other way around. Whenever I wanted a drink, they both looked at me like I was "thiefing" my own shake. AND... it actually turns out that this time, I made the mess...I was trying to refill my glass and the entire shake from the other container just flew into my glass spilling onto the table. Leah just looked at me and very "quietly" said" UUMMMM, MAMA, YOU MAY MESH!, TEEN UP, MAMA, TEEN UP!"

Oh, yeah, she knows about clean up when it's some one else's mess, but when it's hers, it's like it doesn't even exist! Silly girl. My kids are just like their mama, we likes the sweet! Obviously!

Mucho amor

biggest worries right now

Well, I have a couple of new worries...what are my kids going to be for halloween. My son wants to be Iron Man and my daughter wants to be everything she sees in the catalog! My worry is that when I go to buy them, they don't have my kids' size. My son is a skinny weenie, and my daughter is too so the dilemma is that I can't find anything that stays up!!! I hope that the catalog has their sizes this year online unlike last year...the sizes I needed were gone...early! I tried ordering at least a month before and they were sold out. Trust me, I was pretty upset. so my goal now is to try to order them sooner. I think though, my daughter is going to be a princess transformer with the hulk muscles because every time we look at those, she says..."I want that"

Worry number 2...is what I have really allergies or has it turned into a cold...cause dangit...I can't breathe at night, I cough all night long...I have no voice and the cough medicine is really gross! Whine Whine Whine....I know, but you know, when I'm trying to teach without a voice, it becomes an inconvenience...Why can't I just get sick on the weekends and feel better by Monday?

Worry #3...Will my daughter wet herself if I put the gate up at night? Yay! My daughter is finally potty trained and she won't wet the bed at night...instead she comes to my room to let me know that she needs to go pee pee in the potty. Then, she wants to climb in my bed and sleep with us. Now, normally I would say that it was ok, but when I am getting tae kwon do-ed at night, I tend to get no sleep. HOWEVER...my daughter is truly her mother's daughter...because if I were to put the gate up, I have a feeling that she would wet herself to teach ME a lesson...so the question becomes....Is it worth it getting judo chopped at night instead of putting sheets to wash and cleaning the carpet early in the morning when I should be asleep?

Countdown...5, 4, 3, 2, 1

I have 4 more days of radiation left. Woooo hooo!!! I am so excited, and my right side looks like a burnt toast! It is a bit sensitive and I have minor pains every once in a while, but for the most part, I am counting down. I am actually considering sending myself a bouquet of the edible creations to congratulate myself with going through this treatment and finishing. I was a bit on the negative side before all of this started, but I realized how fast it has gone. I get discharged on Thursday, but my last treatment is on Friday. I am so excited. I know I have already said that, but seriously, it's one of my accomplishments other than my kids and family.

The only down side to this is that I am not on the happy go lucky side of things...I either have a bad case of allergies, or a small cold...either way, it sucks! I can't breathe and my throat gets dry at night, and I am up coughing and I lost my voice! I sound like a raspy crank caller! Oh, it's bad and Oh the drama at school. My students didn't get to talk in my classroom due to the fact that I was talking in a whisper for most of the class. But they learned something new today and that's what matters to me! But tomorrow is another day, and hopefully I will get better.
Mucho amor
