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."

Her name is Noel; I have a dream about her. She rings my bell. I got gym class in half an hour, Oh how she rocks...In Keds and tube socks, But she doesn't know who I am, And she doesn't give a damn about me

So. I slept like absolute crap last night. Had a midnighter. haha. I couldn't sleep. So he shouldn't either. There were more productive things we coulda been doing. lol. I seriously got like 4 hours of sleep. I should be wide awake for the wedding tonight. lol. The only thing that sucks about that is that I will be driving home late. I am going to try and get home before dark (which is at 930, so that shouldn't be an issue). My cars headlights, SUCK, so therefore driving at night sucks. haha. 


Going to Jami's today before I go to June's before I go to My parents, before I go to the wedding. haha. Whenever I go to Fulton I see the same people, sometimes with Kel thrown in the mix. I miss the days I used to be able to stop and see Heidi  :(  and Laurie :( . We may make a trip out to see Heidi and Paul on our next three day weekend, Memorial day, whenever that happens to be. Vin doesn't know it yet. haha. We'll see how money and my car goes. 

My car gets inspected when I'm gone. My dad and I will be dropping it off on our way to the airport (which is less than 10 mins away, thank god). I hope it doesn't need to much crap done. sigh. last year when we got it inspected, New struts, new springs, new brakes, and $860 dollars later, it was done. We drop more money into my car that need be. Everything breaks all the time. My car was in the shop earlier this year 3 times in 3 weeks. I swear. My brake lines have been replaced at least 3 times in the 5 years I've had it.

On a happier note. I CLEANED the crap outta Gracie's room. Went thru her closet, got rid of the bags of old clothes that Madalyn would 'someday grow into'. I kept out the size 3t pants and some cute shirts, but she won't even fit those til prolly NEXT winter. she still doesn't fit 2t pants. haha. and I hope by then I can be able to afford new clothes for her, since I'll be working. I LOVE handmedowns from Gracie to Madalyn (or Em to Gracie, or Karina to Gracie) but, we don't have the room for them right now. We have bags of clothes downstair still, that I am going to go thru and get rid of, prolly later this week or next week. And I am going to go thru all the toys out here in the livingroom, where all her toys seem to have migrated, to. I got rid of a huge bag of stuffed animals. I am going to go up to my parents attic today and go thru the 3-6 month clothes for Kerri. I'm giving her the ADORABLE nike sandles that Toni gave Madalyn. They are size 4 and don't fit her (barely) anymore. I threw away a lot of random OLLLD sneakers that had been passed down a million times, but these sandals are just to darn cute, plus Toni got them for Madalyn, so I'll give them to Kerri and her baby girl can grow into them. Gracie STILL tries to wear the Nike sandals that Aunt Toni got her last year or the year before, but her big toe like hangs off it "But Aunt Toni gave them to me". Yes, Gracelyn, and I am sure Aunt Toni won't be sad if you stop wearing them because they are to small. haha.

Gracie's haircut is sooo incredibly CUTE! I took her to my hairdresser (who is my friend from school's mom, and who has been doing my hair for a year or so) and said "I want it short and off the neck. go for it". it is like 'stacked' in the back, like layered in short layers at the nape of her neck (and she raved about how thick her hair is and had the other hairdresser feel it. haha) and then it's longer and unlayered on the sides. SOOOO adorable. ANNNNNNDDDDD it was ONLY $7!!!

Only 9 days til I go to FRANCE (well, Monaco) but YAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!. It is beautiful looking! (google Monaco) it is on the Mediterranean. wow. I spelled that right the first time. Crazy. haha. I am not as stressed about what to wear. I have some capri's and stuff. I'll be fine. and I have my dresspants that I wear to the hospital around here somewhere. and of course, my FAVORITE shoes. well, one of my favorite. we'll say, Favortie heels. My FAVORITE shoes are the wooden sandals that Laurie gave me a couple years ago. They are starting to fall apart like where the thong part is. I am thinking about taking them somewhere to get fixed. I love them, and Laurie said they were her favorite back when she wore sandals.

Well. I'm gonna go fiddle around here and try on the dress I am wearing today to make sure it fits (no time like the present). I really like the dress I wore while the MOH at Amanda's wedding, but I can never find anywhere to wear it to, and it's not technically even a maid of honor dress. I got it at debz (like my other dress that I LOVE). I imagine my bridesmaids have the same issue with the dresses from my wedding, cuz they were bridesmaids dresses.

well. ok. Until Tomorrow <3

I always get silly excited, like in a "wow, you shouldn't be THAT happy over this" kind of way when I spell words I'm unsure of correctly on the first try. Hahaha.

I kept all of Rowan's clothes too. And then I didn't even give any of them away really. I've just been hanging on to them. They're all in the attic, so really, that probably means they're infested with monsters and bugs, and who knows what else. Which then means they're really just junk. Whatever. Our attic is huge, so it will house all of my hoarding issues until it's full. Ha.
