"why do I hate facebook???" and other rants.......

There are so many reasons..............................
*I don't care if you are changing your kitty litter today.
*Who the hell has time for "farmville"? If I get one more request I'm gonna......I don't know what.
*It confuses me.
*Annoys me.
*I just wanna get on and clean up requests and get off................Of coarse someone see's you are online and wants to "chat". ummmmmmm......Gotta go...............
*Since I'm complaining so much............................."why do I have facebook?" you ask??????
Because I signed up way before it was so popular (not cause I'm so cool, but cause a friend had one and said "I sent you a request to be my facebook friend, make one. It's easy". Now don't get me wrong. I really like blogging (kind of a snail-mail approach to facebook?) Facebook was great last summer getting updates for my 20th class reunion (and looking at pics later!).
And I keep an eye on my daughters facebook :)
*So since I'm bashing facebook, I have to eat a few of my words.
I just logged on to check my emails..............
Holy Mother Of Pearl................................ I had 275.
Really......................not because I'm really cool or popular (I don't think Kohl's coupons and Borders book specials make me cool). but I haven't checked them or facebook in about 3 weeks. So cleaning out my emails I come across a facebook "tagged" photo.
I'm dying. This pictures makes me smile. My good friend in high school Traci tagged this photo of us at a prom. (I can't even remember who my date was!!)
1987
I was a sophmore......she was a junior........good times.
So I guess facebook isn't so bad after all. I love to look at old pictures and have a few other funny ones that have been posted from old friends in high school.......
But if your house is on fire............call 911 (don't post it on effin facebook!)
If you send me a message. Please don't be expecting a comment for about 3 months. (sometimes I do comment, believe it or not! I had to send Traci a comment on this one!)
If you need chat with me............send me a text. (email isn't the best idea ever cause I'm such a SLACKER). and a sucky facebook friend......sorry.....
I guess if I had access to a computer during the day I might be a "farmer", chat, report my mundane daily tasks? who knows. But I don't get on often so its very overwhelming!
Blogging/blog surfing is fun and relaxing?????? I'm weird...............I know.........................
(I showed my kids this pic and they said "who is that?" ha ha. Once they knew it was me Nicole said (again), "mom, we have the same face" :)
Now that I got all that off my chest................................

I need to schedule a nervous breakdown.............................
but I don't have the time or the energy. If I break down, I might not recover. Being strong for EVERYONE is exhausting. So much on my plate. We went to Nicole's softball game tonight at Cresent Valley. I was hoping it would get rained out and rescheduled. I was doing the rain dance all day. I suck at dancing. Obviously even the rain dance. Too much going on tonight.
Make up game at 4:30, out of town.
Had client scheduled for 4:00 appt.
Trimester awards at high school at 7:00. Wasn't sure we would be on time because softball game was out of town and Nicole still needed to change clothes.
I REALLY stress out when I am rushed for time. (Ironic because my entire life is on someone else's schedule!)
It all worked itself out.
*Moved client to next week.
*Game was over earlier than expected and we took Nicole home with us instead of riding the bus to save time.
*Nicole decided to wear her softball uniform to awards (which was awesome because it was for "Athletic All Star Honors" and academic for her 4.00 GPA. (I'm not biased but SMART. ATHELETIC. AND BEAUTIFUL)..............................
And I wore my awesome rain boots to the game so it didn't rain. It never rains when I wear them. Just when I wear my good, clean tennis shoes, is it muddy! I decided these are my "official" footwear to games.
Because they are cute.
Practical.
And match my "Rebels" sweatshirt. Always must look cute for a softball game.......................right?

I found a pair on line that are GORGEOUS..........................I want these!!!(who gets excited about rainboots? I said it before............I am weird). And I live in Oregon, so it's practical....





Kambria......................I found a pair for you too!!!!


Awards banquet was weird.
I am VERY social and never feel ackward or uncomfortable in social situations. But there is something about some parents at these events. (A few parents that I adore and really like to talk to though).
So clique-y. Middle-school-ish. Rude. Competitive (weird). Hate it!!
Once the freshman awards were given out I texted LeRoy (sitting across the table from me. ha ha) and Nicole and said we would quietly slip out the back. Luckily we were sitting by the back door.
Couldn't get out of there soon enough. Family was ready to roll too.

So proud of my girl. She had alot on her plate too. But is keeping up.

I have tomorrow morning off. Tyler has no school. I'm going to take my boy out to breakfast.
He gets to pick the place. Excited I get to go on a date with my son...............then off to work. Game scheduled for tomorrow night. Make up game on Saturday. Boys and Girls Club annual auction on Saturday night. Kam hair and makeup Sat. at 2:00.
Haven't been to the gym in 2 nights. Need more sleep. Need to grocery shop and get gas in my car.
Not complaining.......................just being real.............................Peace out.
