I was just wondering....I have been to all kind of trainings, seminars, conferences, round tables, call it whatever, I have been to it. If I had gone to college would I have to do this? I enjoy going don't get me wrong, but I just wonder when I get to do my job and no one improves it or change it or make it "more friendly"? I saw a friend the other day and she said her supervisor was going to another conference and this time she had to room with another person she did not like. I would hate that!! I leave this week and I have a room all to myself....Thank you for the small things. My training is in Austin, so I have insider info, and already know what roads NOT to go on and where to stay, so I enjoy the trips, just wish I could KNOW IT ALL so I didn't have to leave this place I call Paradise.
cough cough......You know when I leave Kent will not make the bed, and leave all the cabinets open and his wash rag in the shower! Yep this is my Paradise, would have no other.
Hope all is well in your Paradise.
Happiness and Smiles!

3months later
Okay since the last time I posted anything this has totally changed, so I'm not sure if anyone will ever get to read this.
I have been thru Hell and back with Janie and her family. I love her but right now I can't stand her or her decisions and the choices she is making. Not my business until it involves the 3 little kids I care so much for, and then I make it my business!
She has fought me tooth and nail and called me everything but a child of God and I have come to the conclusion and am in agreement with the saying" what don't kill me will make me stronger." Or something like that.
I have a new job since the last time I posted. I started July 17 at the HISTORICAL RAINS COUNTY COURTHOUSE! I love working with Kathy and Wayne, they make me smile.
Kent is still the one constant in my life and I cling to him to the point of him being smothered.
I have meet the new Superintendent of RISD, so far he seems to be a nice guy with a good attitude, I;m sure Jeff F and Josh W will cure that before to long. Hope not though.
Jeannette has sold her house in Austin and it looks like she will truly be moving back home, I really had my doubts but it is looking very promising now. She will live with us until she gets her house built down here.
Just what Kent needs, another me to wart the hell out of him. LOL
Kharley is loving Royse City, I still hate it. Kentlee and Kyle are adjusting to a regular routine. Kentlee is the fashionista and Kyle could care less, they keep me hopping. I want to do so much for all of the them, but have to pull back.
OH MY----did I mention I got a new computer???!! It is all in one, like those wrenchs you see at sears...everything in a easy package...This I am in love with.
I need Bradshaw Tech Support to come show me all the bells and whistles...hint hint
I miss you Carla, I need a cigarette and a sonic sweet tea.
I will try and figure out how to post this and hope someone gets to read it.
Happy trails ya'll.

Happy 4th Ya'll
Got up this am at 515 to smell of coffee....yep Jeannette is here for the 4th. We went fishing at Mt. Pleasant today. Our plan was to spend the day and night fishing. I am so glad I went in my car. The pond we fished was not catfish friendly. Tutz and I lasted about 1 1/2 hours and couldn't wait to go to Boyd's for real fishing. One thing about Mt. Pleasant well 2 things: it is BEAUTIFUL and is for Bass fisherman.
The tournament for Xpress (the team Kharley plays on) is over. We got buried both games. I knew during the regular session if we didn't come up against strong competition we couldn't hang with the age group, and yes I was right. Wow it was not pretty. Now the boyz will start there tourney next week. (will this ever end?)
Kharley is back with Trey, the boyz are with Jeff today. Kent's vacation is almost over and I am not looking forward to him going back to work. It has really been nice him at home "piddlin" with little stuff that just needed done. He and Kharley made plans for a bigger better play house, so niext time she is in, they will get that started together.
I heard that the world was ending in 2012, I wonder if this is the start of a new world. So far, it has not been so good. Here is hoping for a quick turn around. Happy 4th to all and to all a good day.
love, Nen

Bonus points at the pump
2.98 is what I paid per gallon today for gas. thank you brookshires for the points! The tomatoes are still good, enjoying my samwitches, the pool is wonderful entertainment for the grands, this summer is flying by.
I registered the boyz for VBS at Emory BC this week, they are really enjoying it.
It has taken me a few weeks to realize the meaning of don't sweat the small stuff. To kids it is huge but the big picture, who give a shit if the dishes aren't in the dishwasher, if there are clothes to be folded, if the damn dog is in the house for the 100th time of the day. I look at the kids and they smile and laugh and PLAY. Entertaining them is nothing. I do try and keep an eye out for harmful stuff, but I figure if they are used to seeing wasp spray on the porch table, then it won't be a surprise if they see me use it. WHICH brings us the biggest, ugliest, biggest spider in the world today on the OUTSIDE screen (thank goodness) I say--Well we won't bother him and maybe he will go away. I lock the screen door (duh and yes he could open the door if he wanted to) and go about doing something else (like loading the gun) and when I return Kharley and her friend have gone outside and captured SpiderZilla and put it in a critter box!! So now I have a captured spider dinosaur in a cage looking at me when I go outside.....It does NOT like his new digs. It growls at me I swear! the boyz make a wide circle around the table because they are scared as I am of this Monster and Kharley is happy to have a pet in the critter box. geez!!
At the time all are playing there are tons of things that need to be done and I sit here in the A/C wishing I had a job to go to for adult conversation!!
I haven't got to go fishing in a week, so I am missing out on the biggest fish of my life, I just know it. Our friend Deb had total knee replacement surgery so she will not be able to make love to her fishing pole again for a while. \o/
Next week Kent is on vacation, I hope we don't work the entire time and have a few days to fish or go somewhere. Pam you come on down when you get a chance and we will do some moon light fishing if nothing else! I hope everyone is having a good summer to all be safe.

TOMATOES and MORE Catfishing
Well I am glad you ask, my tomatoes are wonderful. I had the best samwiches for lunch and tonite Kent grilled us some burgers and again the tomatoes were FabUlous!!! Something about a homegrown mater makes the meal.
We helped Rob and Susan NO I helped Rob and Susan take down a filled above ground 28 ft swimming pool on Saturday. Took us about 4 hours. Rob knocked me down and now I have a crack in my butt.
I can't remember the last time I fell so hard on my arse! I just knew I had broken my hip, back, leg and shoulder beside my pride. But I was able to convince Kent to go back with me on Sunday for more punishment (!) to put the pool up so there grandkids can have as much fun as ours. We just put up the wall of the pool and as soon as the liner comes in we will go back and complete the transaction
Roger Bryant retired from RISD after 40+ years of teaching. We dropped by and had the best time visiting and just happen to find a fish fry in the making. (LOL) Some of the funniest stories were told and Kent was involved in quite a few.
I am kinda enjoying being off work. I hate the fact I have to ask Kent for money when I want to do something. Hughlene always said you needed your own perfume and magazine money, and I now know what she was talking about.
Tutz and I are keeping the catfish scared to death at Boyd's. We try and go at least 2 times a week. I don't feel like I need to fish more than that, I haven't figured out why though. Quilt I think. Kents working and I'm fishing.......guilt, guilt guilt
We took Deb fishing with us the other day, and again I get tickled and wet on myself. Now Deb is not your avg fisherwoman. She brings her own wet ones and cleans her hands after each baiting of the hook. She has on full make and perfume, clean white shirt and ironed shorts... And I love her for this. She is the reason I wet myself. She caught the biggest catfish ever for her, all she could do was say OH GOD, OH GOD, OH GOD! Kinda has a sexual tone to it and I look at Tutz who is on the other side of the pond laughing at Deb. I kept telling Deb to reel him in! Hold the Rod up! Tutz is laughing.....Deb has the reel between her legs reeling in the fish with the tip of the pole in the water. I don't know what to do? So I get tickled at Tutz laughing and Deb having an orgasim over a fish....Do I let her lose the fish or see if she can land him. I can't tell if I need to get the dip net? I just can't tell!? Tutz won't tstop laughing or get up off her bucket and help so I take the pole from Deb and just show her if you hold the pole up and reel you have a little more idea of what you got. Finally we can see we won't need the net for this one, so I give it all back to Deb and she lands the biggest fish she has ever caught.....
Yep I think I will let Kent keep working and I will fish a few more days. and eat maters!!

Fishing, Tomatoes, Dogs and Swimming Pools
School is out today! Promised Kharley I would take her shopping. The Colby and Chelsey graduate tonite, Shelby graduates on Friday.. We are a proud Aunt and Uncle to these great kids.
My tomatoes are huge, the plants and the fruit! Waiting for them to ripen, my mouth is watering.
Keeper is digging up the world down here, dammit, I wish he would go home!
The swimming pool is ready and waiting for the kids..
Tutz and I have been keeping the catfish scared to death at Tawakoni.
We were asked to fish a private pond a few days back, we thought why not we will give it a try.....OMG!!!
8 catfish averaged 12 lbs that is about 100 lbs of fish!! So much fun, I laughed so hard, yes I peed myself again!! Tutz had CatZilla on her line and we had no dip net...She told me to help her.....
Everyone even she know I am of NO help, so I grab the 8lb test line she has on her rod and pull it next to the wooden pier........yes it cuts it like a knife. CatZilla is laughing as I look at Tutz. Which the saying is true, If Looks could Kill, I would be dead. So then it is my turn to snag Monster Fish..sure enough he takes my bait and I jerk as hard as I ever have...cannot turn this Monster..I have a bruise on my belly from just hanging onto this rod, it is singing as the line goes out farther and farther, I look for help...it aint gonna happen. So her I am wet drawers, spinning reel, running for the bank to drag Monster Fish in....It was all a sight to behold.
So my summer will be yard mowing and fighting off Monster Fish!!
Pam mentioned in her blog all the angels watching from heaven, I wonder how different things in my current world would be if those angels were still with us. Sometimes I feel ashamed of all the times I have called on them to pull us out of the hell we are currently in, and then I wake the next morning and I thank them all for granting me another day. I know this will pass with a little help from my friends and family.
Love to all...Nen
