Day Five:

Your Day

Gosh, I am realizing how bad I am about this. Woooops.

Well.

My typical day goes a little something like this..

Wake up around 645-7ish depending on if I'm showering in the morning.

Get ready.

Be at work by 8.

School day starts at 812.

My job is kind of awesome honestly.

For the most part I get to sit here on my computer and do whatever it is my little heart desires.

I write kids passes to the library.

5 per period. "no more than that" says the mean librarian. boo her.

My students are actually really good & stay quiet.

Minus when they are talking to me...which many of them do.

Obvs.

Bc I am awesomeee.

But when they are not quiet and/or working on something/sleeping...

I write them up.

And they get a detention.

Bummer for them.

Study hall is for homework and studying right??

HA.

Anyways, I sit here from 8-2:54. and then I am doneeee.

Pretty sweet right?

It's a little different story when it's cheer season.

which is actually the entire year minus spring time.

but we'll save that fun for another time.

Soooo.

After work I either go straight home and take a big fat nap bc I've obviously had a really long, hard day.

orrrr.

I meet up with a cute boy & we go on adventures.

or dates.

or whatever.

Which usually takes me to shower & bedtime before I start all over again.

Guys, I just realized how totally lame my days sound.

But honestly, right now, that's how I like it.

Usually I am so busy with work & cheerleading & trying to find time to work at the law office in between I barely have time to breathe.

So this is nice.

God Bless Spring Time!

Day Four:

Short Term Goals For This Month & Why.

Clearly, I'm on top of my shiz today.

Two posts in 20 minutes.

Why? Bc school ends first week in June and the babes I've nannied for the past 8 or 9 summers don't need me anymore. whaaaaat. seriously. i'm slightly in a panic;stressed out state over this.

ATTENTION(yes you): If you live anywhere near the cincinnati,southeast indiana, northern kentucky area and need someone super awesome to care for your kids this summer or know anyone that does...puhhhhlease tellllll meeeee:) I do super fun things like take them to the pool/waterpark, library, zoo, museum, park, whatev! We do not sit at home & watch tv!

Okay, i'm done.

Stop being a fatty.

also known as....WORK OUT.

Why? Bc I haaaate that I haven't been.

Oh and I need to.

Gonna try super hard to at the very least walk a mile everyday.

Or join my mom at jazzercise.

Or run, HA.

Or take alot of naps...

whichever.

Stop being a baby about selling Patti.

More importantly... Dear person who wants to buy an SUV when gas costs almost $4/gallon, CALLLL MEEEE! kloveyou.

And I want to.

Day Three:

What I Ate Today.

::yes, i know. and yes there may be 2ish days between each one of these. whatevvv.

Good post right?

Wait there is more!

Here's what I've drank: (is that a word?)

Water.

Peach & mandarin green tea.

How absolutely exciting right?

Yipeeeee.

kloveyoubye.



Day Two:

I know. I've already been slacking with the 30 days but it's fine right? Moving along with day2.

Parents.

Bob & Sandy. They are amazingggg.

Dad grew up in a family of 10. Yup that's dad.mom.sister.sister.brother.bob(or bobby as they all still call him. presh).brother.sister.brother.brother.

Holy smokes, i know.

aaaaand they lived in a house with 4 bedrooms and 1 yes ONE bathroom! whaaaat. kidding me? Can you imagine?

Anyways, dad met mom while they were both working at KFC. smexy right? Strangely enough my moms sister actually wanted to date my dad..like had a huge crush on him. woooops...bob liked sandy.

They married young, dad at 21 mom at 19.

Dad was in the air force and they were stationed in New Mexico when my sister was 3. PS..mom had sister aprox 9 months after wedding. bah.

My brother was born out there. On the day the space craft thing(anyone know what I'm talking about??) landed in the desert..idk it was in 1982...before me...

Ok got off subject.

So dad went to school after air force at Embry Riddle in Florida..they moved back to Cincinnati and dad landed an awesome job at GE where he has now worked for almost 30 years.

Mom grew up in a family of 8. that's dad.mom.brother.brother.sister(whowasinlovewithmydad).sandy-mymama!.sister.sister.

Mom grew up a little less chaotic than dad. It was more Leave it To Beaver style.

Mom was lucky enough to stay at home with us. She rocked at it. Made us a hot breakfast every.single.morning.

Like still makes my youngest brother bear hot breakfast and he is 17 years old.

She started working part time at our private elementary school when my youngest brother was in maybe 2nd or 3rd grade. She was there for 5?ish years.

She now works as a legal secretary for a local attorney and really really enjoys it.

My parents both rock. Really they do. They've gone through some hard hard times and I am sure it hasn't been easy raising 5 kids. The fact that they are still madly in love makes me so happy. Our family is definitely blessed.

I hope & pray that someday I will still be married to the love of my life after 33 years and be as happy as they are.

Props to you, mom & dad!
