done done done!

Yes folks, college girl is DONE with her first set of classes! Yessirree! I just finished my last of 3 courses ending this week. Evangelism, English, and the dreaded Biology are now past me! I feel like dancing! hang on....

*** we pause for dancing break ***
*** can hear wiggles music playing..... (I turned the boys movie up, hehe) ***

Okay, I'm back. Can I just tell you how relieved I'm feeling? I got one A and two B's but I'm thinking that's pretty good for a girl who hasn't been in school in over 10 years! Hubs and I are celebrating by having our first date night in almost a year and a half. Maybe more than that.... sheesh. Our schedules have not lined up, and we basically haven't made the time. But Date Night is ON folks! We're going to dinner at Olive Garden and then we're going to see "FireProof". I can not wait! Join me in celebrating and have yourself some chocolate. You deserve it! :)

*** passes out the whoppers..."

blackboard is down

I have read over 40 pages of notes and 6 sections of biology today. I have spent 5 hours in front of this durn computer studying and getting ready to pass my test. I go to take the test while all the info is still floating in my brain but guess what?

.... Blackboard is down. grrrrrr. I can't do anything with blackboard down. I can stare at a pretty screen, but that doesn't get me any closer to my test.

I know this sounds like a dorky post but I'm frustrated after half an hour of trying to get blackboard to load so that I don't lose the junk stuffed in my biology-defying brain. :(

This is a difficult week for me. LOTS of homework, several papers, all due by Saturday night. Pray for me friends.


What are you up to today?

do you hear howling?





If so, it's cause the Wolves put the hurt on! Lol. :) We have become football people. Yes, I fit well into the role of "football mom". David started flag football two weeks ago and today was their first game. The Wolves (our team) - vs - the Bulls. Although there is not an official score, let me assure you, our Wolves and their 6 touchdowns did a mighty fine job! David was unsure of what to do or how to play, but his coach found a job that suited him VERY well. The boy is a snapper. I want you to know, he snapped that ball straight into the hands of the quaterback every time! He is a natural. Each time the team "scored", he was on the snap. We parents were all unsure how the kids would do because this is each childs first year to play, first game, and they'd only had 2 practices. But boy did those kids play their little hearts out! And oh man are they serious about their football now. I see why football is so major in Texas. I'm so stinkin proud of the way David played today! He did everything exactly how his coach asked him to and he delivered when he needed to. He even managed to gain his team 5 yards by running the ball on one play. Friday night football may be huge in this awesome state, but I think I'm really going to enjoy me some Saturday afternoon football for a while. :) Here are some pics from Mr. Snappers first game:



the huddle - David is the short one



lining up - David is on the left


first snap of the game (David is in the white jersey), and oh yes, that's a "play holder" on the boys arm.

have you heard from my friend?

Debra and her family are in Houston and Ike paid them a visit this weekend. Have you heard from them? I'm putting this out there because I don't have their phone #. Well, lol, I have the cell phone #, just not the area code. Anyway, if you've heard from them, e-mail me please, dizzy4daizey@yahoo.com and let me know what you've heard. Last I knew their power was probably out, but we haven't heard much else. Debra if you reading this drop me an e-mail if you have time/power. We are praying everything is okay and that your house/cars are without damage. Love you guys!
