FRIDAY Sept 23rd.."0 dark thirty"

I can't sleep. I have lots of things going through my mind. I have to finish my rough draft for class and do some reading. Also take the Math assessment...of which I know I will suck at..like Chevy Chase use to say on Saturday Night Live those many years ago.." I thought there would be no math today!" Thats me! Math is not my strong point. Give me science? Sociology? Anything..just NO MATH!! LOL!!!!
Anyways, I am now getting child support...oh shall I say I'll be receiving it soon. My ex came to his senses for a little while and is trying to "do good" for his kids. Hey, I'm not going to complain!! If he wants to do it, fine..if not, he'll go to jail..no skin off my back! I'm raising my son the best way I know how and so far I think I have done a fairly damn good job. Do I care what anyone else thinks?? Never have before and don't see it happening anytime soon, either. It's my life, my rules...my son and he's growing up to be a real fine young man.
One issue I do have with said son...he came to me and told me he wants to learn a musical instrument. Well hmmm..I thought to myself what God awful thing does he want to play?? I'm figuring drums since his cousins all play them. WRONG!!! You guys ready???
He wants to learn....
the VIOLIN!!
HOLY MAN!! NOT THAT!!! Geez..I played that myself for 2 years in school and it was awful to be in orchestra and hear all that horrid screetching. I could play it. My parents put up with it..How, I'll never know....but now B wants to play it......Good lord almighty...Help me now!!
His music teacher is thrilled. I said to B..what about the cello?? Coronet??? DRUMS?!?!?!?!
I hope he changes his mind and SOON!! UGHhhhhh.....anything but the violin!!
Hmmmm...I suppose thats it...
Caterina!!! I hope you and your mom are in Dallas now. I hope you headed out of Houston already. I'm thinking about y'all and hope you are safe with the threat of Hurricane Rita almost upon you! I'll try to call you tomorrow night. Did Ken also go with y'all? Thank God Pam and Ryan are in Dallas, huh??? (((HUGS to you!))) Talk to you soon!

Everyone else?? You know where to find me! Either MCF or online classes!! OH and MCF ladies..check for "updates" about Kristy's party on our site! I hear it's going to be a wild night! God only knows what can happen when the Licky Chicky's get "licky" when a certain Captain shows up at their party!!!!! WOO HOOO!!!!!
Time for bed...catch y'all later..it's almost the WEEKEND!!!!
MUAH!!! Smootches!!
