You gotta be wise

Listen as your day unfolds, challenge what the future holds, try and keep your head up to the sky. Lovers, they may cause you tears, go ahead release your fears, stand up and be counted, don't be ashamed to cry. You gotta be, You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard, You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, You gotta stay together

Ronald Reagan

"Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide."

Don't tell me if I'm dying, Cause I don't wanna know, If I can't see the sun, Maybe I should go...

So, I am having issues sending pics from my phone to here. hmm.

Vin has no idea when he will be done. It is 1818 now. Great. Another late night. I am starving. Kinda. I just really like to eat. I really am trying to watch my calories, since we are camping in a little under 2 weeks. No more beer or wine until then. To high in calories. I think that is part of the reason why I gained like 10 lbs in a year. Nursing school makes me drink. haha. Altho, I'm not lying. ha.

I received a card today, in the mail from Heather's mom, Janet. She had a stroke in February or March, maybe April. I am bad at remembering dates. I went and saw her a couple times and sent her flowers, and she wrote me a card herself! I am so proud of her improvement, and she's not even my mom. haha. She was in the ICU at upstate, and then the rehab floor, now she's at St. Camillus in Oswego, and she will be going home June 29, in time for their wedding in July!! I am so glad I got to see them. And. They live literally like a quarter mile from Jami and Thane! I wish we could buy the house next door to the Goldberg's, cuz then we would have all our friends right near us (and Heather and I could carpool to school. Except, she's ALWAYS late. haha), minus the Green's who live across the bridge.

June 29th is my parents 25th Wedding Anniversary. I am thrilled to be making it to our 3 year, in August, much less our 25th! I am so incredibly lucky to have a whole family, all of who get a long, and I really should count the blessings and be thankful for all of them.

So, Jami just told me this really funny story about what happened at Ponderosa with Rowan. I am sure she will post about it, but I will tell the short story because it made me LOL. They were at Ponderosa after Rowan's tball game, and some kid in the next booth was screaming and crying, so Rowan stood up on the booth and yells "OH NO, DADDY DO SOMETHING!!!" HAHAHAHA.

So. This Labels thing. What does it do? I think I labeled one post a while back (by while back, I mean like 3 days ago), but I always forget to, and I am still not real certain what it does. haha.

I am so freakin' excited to be going to camp. Holy Moly. Words can not express my feelings of ecstasy about how near it is!! We got everything, but Vin's fishing license, and our cooler (which should be arriving soon). We have to get groceries and some small stuff, but we have our screen tent, the tent, the ax, the rooftop bag, and the air mattresses, and lanterns and crap. OOOHHH and we bought APPLES TO APPLES. I am SOOO EXCITED to get to play that!! I only played it once at a Game Night at Carly's house with the Crouse girls (and all two of the Crouse Boys), but it was so fun!!

Ok. Now it is 1831 and still no word from Vin. Yay. ha. I am glad we don't live in Fulton anymore. Altho, when we did at least I had like 45 minutes notice of when he would be home, and I could make dinner. Now he works a mile away and I don't know he's out until he gets home. So, I don't make dinner when it's this late and we are just lazy and rely on delivery or Lucky Sevens.  And I wonder why I gained weight? ahaha.

So. I love female singers of the 'rock/souly/whatever' genre. Melissa Etheridge. Joss Stone. Alanis. Definatly Alanis. I looove Alanis. Joan Jett. Lisa Loeb. The cranberries, altho they are a group. or whatever.  I love her so much, as well. I love them all.

Ok. On a sidenote. I am sick of our drug dealing neighbors. They cause to much traffic. Seriously, there are always cars pulling up in front of their house, for like 3 minutes, and then leaving. like, all day long. Seriously, do they think everyone around here is an idiot? We know what they are doing. Altho, it bothers me cuz whenever we are outside, rolo runs over to greet the drug seeker. ha. Good thing the driveway and back yard and door we use are on the 'quietish' side street. Thank God our driveway isn't on Midler. We would have Roadkill Rolo. Haha.

Ok. I am hoping Vin gets home soon. It is 1837, and I am sick of screaming "Go play in your room Gracelyn!!! and STOP Dragging your sister around by her legs! (who by the way, doesn't complain about being dragged around.) and STOP SCREAMING! LEAVE HER ALONE Almost time for their bed. They wake up sooo early that they go to bed at 7ish. Which works for us, cuz we are (usually) in bed by 8ish. Altho, Vin has been working so late we haven't been getting to bed til 830-9ish, and then I have to read before bed, so I haven't been falling asleep til 10 or later. ok. Until tomorrow <3
