Happy Memorial Day!!!

Had a whirlwind of a few days... Friday went to Jenn's and wrote our cover letter to send out to publishing houses in an attempt to find a publishing agent, Saturday I ran errands to get stuff ready for Sunday when we had our little BBQ and then went to the drive-in till 3:30 in the morning and today we finished off the BBQ stuff and had a few guests for a little while as the kids swam in the pool.  Phewww... I'm beat...

May is drawing to a close and...

  I don't think I made one post here during it...bad Vicki, bad!!

 Well here I sit taking a majorly deserved break after accomplishing a little bit today.  I went back to my writing class and had so much fun today it wasn't funny, I mowed the grass so my dog can use the potty without being violated by crab grass and I vacuumed the pool so it looks pretty :)  All and all, it was a good day.  I also caught up with a friend that I haven't had the chance to speak with because ya know, life doesn't stop just because things are crazy, lol.

  Speaking of crazy... no I wasn't referring to myself...yet... I'm not sure when things are ever going to slow down...my pop was released from the hospital last Monday after basically dying in his sleep and having his pacemaker bring him back so he had to spend some quality time getting the crap stuck out of him at the hospital so they could give him medicine thru an IV.  After his release, he's managed to have 2 more episodes that his heart stopped and his pacemaker shocked him back, but he refuses to go back tot he hospital this time...*SIGH*  Just another day in paradise, lol... I try not to get worked up anymore because he always bounces back...

  Work has been super busy, but it looks like they are not going to privatize this year; maybe next June?  I'm just happy to still have a job.  Hopefully they will keep us long enough to pay my truck off or until I can get published and make some money that way.

  Oh and here is some pics...                  me and daddy

and me and mommy ...
and just me...here goes..
 hopefully the next ones I take will actually SHOW the 18 pounds I have worked hard at losing...
