AND look!! I'm updating it again! Wow, I might not do this again for weeks. Got my mater and squash planted, I have my knife and plate ready! I thought I had 9 maters but turned out I have 12, so I hope out of 12 plants I get 1 mater, we will see.
It's Wednesday and Kent is attending the weekly meeting of the minds........(up for interpetation) He got the riding mowers out last night around 930, made sure they all would run, and left them right beside the back door, so I could see them I guess. Well I saw them.
Kharley came whizzing down on Kentlee's 4wheeler with Kyle. Kharley 10 yrs old stands at least 5 feet tall and is all legs, she looked like a grand daddy long leg spider on a bumble bee. they need groceries so she and Kyle was shopping. Funny to me Janie has money to loan out to friends and never any money for food.
We, my boss Ms Traylor, Josh, Karen and I went to the New Intermediate school today to look over the furniture that was left when the elementary moved out. Lots of good stuff, some junk and unwanted items. What is left will all go to the auction in SS on saturday. I would like to bid on a few things, just don't know how to sneak it in without Kent seeing it. What I want would take the trailer or a semi....may have to....walk away....just walk away. that's what the little voice is telling me..shut up stupid little voice.
I overheard one of the guys say buses were going to the auction as well. A 72 passenger bus!! Would that not be the best vacation wagon in the world, you could take EVERYONE with you. I may need to tell my nephew about this auction, he might have an interest.
Did anyone see the moon on Saturday 3-19...the news ppl and Tutz said it was suppose to appear brighter and bigger on that night because of the alignment of the planets. I was fortunate enough to get to see it and it was beautiful and bright and it did appear to be closer than your average full moon. Made me step back and realize just how small we all are.
Okay I'm hungry, the kitchen is clean so it looks like a PBJ sandwich, don't want to mess up a good thing.
Happy Trails to all and to all Happy Trails.....
Oh give me land, lots of land under starry starry skies, DON'T FENCE ME IN!! love and hugs Nen

Spring Break 2011
My week:
Monday-I kept Kentlee and Kyle, it was kinda cool so we stayed in the house most of the day. Played, colored, watch a little TV, no movies, Kyle sat most of the day in the little chair naked, that boy refuses to wear underwear, so I refused to give him any clothes.Janie took us to lunch and then nap time. Before we new it Mom was here to take them away from me. (Kyle told her all about "Nen made me sit neeked MOM!!" (little shit is so funny)
Tuesday- bought a push mower, lumber, 4 squash 16 tomatoe plants, fertilizer and black ribbon and thread.
Wednesday- I got to keep all 3 grands....Kharley is growing up so fast, I have to remember to treat her like an adult and no longer a kid. We went to McD's and a movie, Kentlee thinks he is Rango now wears cowboys clothes with 6 shooters and a cigar.(yeah a stick in his mouth) I let Kyle wear clothes because he promised he would not take off his underwear. ( I kept a close watch on him) Then to Braums for ice cream home in time for Mom to snatch them all away (again)
Thursday- Kinda cleaned house. I completed the one cabinet in our bathroom, one cabinet! I will never figure out why I don't just put the trash can inside this cabinet. All the trash seems to end up in there anyway. Soap wrappers, tops to hairspray cans, razor covers, toothpaste boxes.....half bottles of mouth wash...shampoo. Anyway it is clean I hope until the next Spring Break. Kent got off early to start his 3 day vacation, so I helped him with his gathering of goodies for the river. Ended up going to W-Mart at 10:30 for last minute items, that are so necessary for a river trip......hooks and a paddle.
Friday- We were to be on the river at 7, Stack and Tutz woke us up banging on the door screaming "Your Late" We crawl out of bed and have to finish packing the trailer and trucks with the rest of the gear we didn't load the nite before, We finally get to the Sabine at 9:30am unload all the crap and finally get to the fishing part of the vacation. 3 for me 4 for him, but we had so much fun in the boat. Kent had an old trolling motor, Bill Dance" model, he hooked it to the back of the boat so all the handles were away from him...he looked like a contortionist trying to steer and move around, we jumped a bunch of log jams a few we tried to get under, this did not happen....we don't bend like we used to. Got back to camp without falling out of the boat, (Thank You Lord, for this) and drank beer until dark thirty, I came on home, Kent stayed in the fruit stand.
Saturday- Ileft the house about 8am and when I drove by Janie's Kentlee was standing in the doorway and he waived at me.......I thought no, he is to little to go.....................so when we got to the river, I made him promise me he would not drown , he said ok. This next part was funny for some, and I will recover one day................Me and Kentlee were sitting on the banks of the Sabine and fishing our little hearts out, well I should say livers, that is all the fish would bite was chicken liver..........I hate c. Liver..hate the shit!!! I had baited Kentlee's hook, about 12 times because.....well he is 5...that's why, but I had finally got him fixed and mine in the water and sure enough got all hung up in the shit in the river, so I pulled really hard to free my line and hook from the tangled mess of the river and..........................................yes, it came un done and the liver slapped me in the face.........................................................the biggest blob of rotten stinking chicken liver you can possibly get on a hook slapped me in the face. I was sitting down (again Thank you Lord) I fell backward and just laid there for a few seconds and then I started feeling in ooze down my neck. This is when my stomach started churning and I was glad I was outside. I told Kentlee to get his pole out of the water and go to Pa. I glance over and Kent is looking the other way and I noticed his shoulders were moving up and down. I know the SOB is laughing at me, and I accept this as my lot in life for all the times he has provided me comedy in our life, but this was Chicken LIVER in my mouth and running down my neck! I am trying to get Kentlee, his pole, the rest of the damn liver my rod and reel to the camp site so I can come home! Kent can't get up for laughing!! OK, stop laughing long enough to help me! and Kentlee. Kent is not very agile on the river, it is kinda steep and you have to go around all the dead trees and vines and it is HOT....I am wearing liver and it is HOT!!! Please KEnt hurry!!I need clean water really fast....I give up I leave Kentlee with him and I haul ass to the little babbling brook close to the river and dive into it. (ok this is not true, but I wanted to dive into the little babbling brook of really clean water)I gget to camp and I washed up best I could with what resources they have at a camp site in order to get home. I throw Kentlee out of the truck and I scald my body and hair and gargle for 30 minutes. And believe it or not I returned to the scene of the crime for the best fish fry EVER!! Them boys of the bottom can sho nuff cook some fish! It was G double O D good!
Sunday- Time to break camp and let the cleaning begin,,,,I hope to have all the pots and pans put up by the time I go to bed.
Good nite to all and to all a good nite. Nen (chicken liver hater)

Ok, I'm updating!
Geez, I never knew I had so many followers, I think I like this...
Between this and FB I never know what I have posted and what I haven't...so if I repeat myself, it's because I'm updating.....hahaha
The latest I think was getting thrown out of that damn basketball game....(it was embarassing, but the ref should have that whistle shoved up his ass)
It seems like Janie and I are at each others throats alot, and I can't figure out why, got to be hormones right? can't be Promzilla (Pam) she aint going to the Prom (as far as I know) I hope it all comes out soon, I don't know if I can take much more.
Our campus had open house the same nite we had the Alumni meeting, I really enjoyed both. I love my new position, I miss working with numbers and adults. Although there are some children alot brighter than some of the adults I worked with. The aAlumni is a work in progress.....
The kids pull at my heart. They all have different stories, but there are a few little boys and girls I just want to bring home with me, and hid them from there parents.
I know the houshold Janie grew up in was not "leave it to beaver" atmosphere, and we argued over everything, but some of these kids are raising themselves. 9-10-11 year olds alone, just a place to sleep, no guidance at all. Yep I'm sure it has always been like that, but I never knew it. I was never in the middle of it like I am now. So much needs to change in this old world.
NEXT>>>>> today Kent went to a swap meet in Canton, not sure why, he never buys car parts, we have everything they have here, but it is his addiction. He told me when he gets back he will break ground for a garden...now this will take a few months to get in garden fashion, but at least it will be a start.
AND>>> we got the pool liner in this Friday, now I just have to replace the ring at the bottom of it. I have gone online, you have to have a doctrate in engineering to order the c-clamp attachment with vertical/horzontal, grooves, with overlapping...yada yada...SHIT!! I will ask Kent if he sees one at the next swap meet, thats the one thing we don't have...
OR>>>>This week is our Spring Break at good ole RISD... looking forward to it...we have had a lot of time off due to all the snow, so I was thinking we might have to give SB up....(note to self) never say this in front of stressed out teachers. OMG, they went left on me......I will apologize now for my shortcomings in the line of vacations.
MORE>>>Susan and I are going to crash in on sister at the end of this month. We will be partaking in the festivities at Round Top..population 7...funny and I love it. Antique Trade show that invades this tiny town.
My addiction.
RANDOM STUFF...like all of this aint Random (huh Carla?) Got Kharley a new bike, Kent ran over her old one last summer and we was going to get her a new one for her birthday in Sept, just never did. So the other day, I just had her so we made a mad dash to WalMart and she picked it out. I think she likes it.
Kentlee rides his all the time, Kyle will not ever attempt to sit on one. He can run faster than a bike can go, so I think he sees no need. Maybe when he sees Kharley and Kentlee on 2 wheels he will want to.
LAST ONE>> I went to my first Karoke (sp) bar! OMG, FUN FUN FUN, no I did not sing, but my toe sure was tapping. I was invited to a birthday party and we did a progressive party, started out at Chili's and ended at Muddy Jakes.Sherri almost missed the first leg but got there in time to proceed to the next bar, oh I mean venue. I hope Denise and Brandy were able to blow the whistle at the Avon Rice Relays on Sat. Betsy, Ellen and Mary were surprisingly hiliarious, and I loved being with them in a non school setting. Thank you Glenda for asking me to join, it beats the BLZD of the Month!! And Susan it was good to see you smile and have a good time, you need a few tears of laughter instead of sorrow. Looking forward to your return.
That's it, the sun is shining and I think a earth worm is waiting for me to find him.
Good day to all and to all a good day!! Nen
