Shelby has been accepted!!

We are so thrilled!! Shelby received her acceptance letter this weekend for the All Day Kindergarten program at Stillwater Elementary!! Woohoo!! Now supposedly they had to do a lottery. I don't know if they really did or if they had enough spots for all the kids that signed up. But I don't care! Shelby is in All Day Kindergarten!! Woohoo!!!

Speaking of my beautiful daughter, she made dinner tonight. The other day she mentioned she wanted to make vegetable soup. Now I do not know where all she has eaten vegetable soup before but she said that there should be broccoli, carrots, beans and peas in it. So I guess when Chad & Shelby went grocery shopping yesterday she mentioned it again and they got all the ingredients that were needed.

On the way home I informed Chad that I was not all that hungry. He laughed at me until I told him the last concoction Shelby made. Macaroni & Cheese with corn. I tried it, it wasn't good. So you can understand my hesitation. Then while Shelby & daddy were cooking dinner I heard Chad ask if she had made this at preschool. She said "No I just read it...in my mind!" And I have to say, the soup was quite good!! I told her she gets her cooking skills from daddy and she says "No I got them from God!"


Kids say the darnedest things!

What is it with 80's movies???

So I had to laugh as I flip through the channels this AM and find that "Can't Buy me Love" is on. What is funny about this? Well my friend & I were just talking last night about Patrick Dempsey and his 80's movies, especially this one!!

I know this movie is lame, I am reminded of how lame it is as I watch it yet I keep sitting here, glued to the TV! It is so typical of any 80's movies! Like the part where he starts doing the dance and suddenly everyone is like "Yeah, what a cool dance" and are doing it too??!! What am I saying?? It's not just 80's movies...they still do that in movies. Though I have never witnessed this happening in real life!!

Wait, there was that one time that I was at school and that guy started dancing and suddenly we all joined in and knew the same dance steps. No wait....that was that other 80's movie.....

It is amazing to see what Patrick Dempsey has done since then. I am sure we won't be seeing him doing the African Ant eater ritual anytime soon on Grey's Anatomy.

can\'t buy me love

You know what troubles me about these movies? The people are total geeks and then with a can of mousse and a ripping off of the sleeves of their shirt and VOILA...they are gorgeous and popular...Uh huh, because that always happens in real life......

Okay, nuff said. It's the climatic ending where he defends his best friend and gets the girl!!

I am in SO much pain!!

I am in pain, depressed and just a real grump ass right now!!! UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My back has been killing me for weeks now and I have no idea why. It's not like I pinched a nerve or did anything to cause the pain. Last night I could not fall asleep because it just hurt. And it's not like a shooting pain, or hurt to the touch. It's just this dull ache. I constantly feel this urge to stretch and pop my back but there is no relief!!!!!

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Then I am stressed/depressed because of my job. Maybe that is the reason for my back pain?? I don't know!!!!!!! I just don't know what to do.

Anyway, not an exciting post. Tomorrow morning I take Shelby to the dentist to get fillings. She actually seems excited about it. She kept yelling tonight "I am getting a silver tooth tomorrow!" Won't she be disappointed when she gets one of the tooth colored ones! :)

Okay, off to lay down...that is...if I can get comfortable!
