Let me rant here.
I realize I live in the back woods of the world, but give me a freaking break.
The idiots who run our school system have asked for my kids SS number every single year they have been in school. That pisses e off enough.
My youngest is in the 11th grade this year.
Want to know what she came home with yesterday?
Let me tell you any way.
A A***** County Public School Registration form.
Let me point out, if you count Kindergarden this is her 12th year in their school system.
Want to know what information they want?
Well let me tell you anyway.
Her SS# as usual, but they have added a new twist to it.
They want her Birth Certificate Number... WTF? She is going to school not going under cover for Homeland Security.
They are NOT getting it.
Let the school wars begin. Mama Bear is pissed and there is NO WAY I am trusting these idiots with this information.

To big to squish
You all know. You see it. You want to kill it. Then you think....Ewwwww that thing just has way to much guts going on to squish. If parts of it stick out from under your sneaker, it maybe time to rethink the whole thing.
Well lately that is the story with my little beagle. Who keeps laying with her head right where I put my feet down to get off my stool. As annoyed as I get. I keep thinking, she is a little to big to squish and I bet beagle is a real bitch to get out of the carpet.....lol

Blessings
I've lived in the same small town for the last 22 years.
I'm not sure live is correct word. Maybe existed is.
I raised my kids here. Did the school mom thing, the baseball mom thing, the Pioneer girl thing, the cub scout thing.
Yet I would still use the word exist, because I never really connected to any of the people who I did these things with. Once the game, meeting or event was over we all went out separate ways.
Then at the beginning of this year we started going to church.
I'm not going to tell you that nothing bad ever happens to church goers, because that would be a lie.
I will tell you when you give yourself to Jesus and attend church, the blessings do start pouring in.
Our Pastors Sister and BIL moved here six weeks ago to open up a restaurant.
They happen to have a 16 year old daughter, new to the area and in the need of friends.
I happen to be the mom of one of the friendliest 16 year old girls there is...HHmmmm See where this is going?
Because the girls hang out. We've had reason to spend time with her parents outside of church. I really like her parents. Which of course gives us another common link to our Pastor and his wife.
Think of the Game "6 degrees of Kevin Beacon." The same theory applies here.
We are all connected in different ways with church being the common link.
After all these years I finally feel like, I live here. I finally have that sense of community that I have been missing for so long.
Where have these people been, all these years? If wanted to be honest, I know where they have been. They have been right here. They are the same people I have barely glanced at in the store. Barely nodded at, as I passed them on the street.
They are also the same people I would see as they interacted with each other. Which left me wondering, how is it they all seem to know each other? Why is it that my kid and their kids are on the same team, in the same class, belong to the same club. Yet I'm off to the side. What is their common bond?
Now I know. Because when you find your church. It's like finding your family. When your surrounded by family, your never alone.

The Greatest American Dog
I waste an hour of my life every Wednesday watching this show. I'm hooked on it. I'm fairly convinced the young good looking easy going guy is going to win it. The judges seem to really like him.
As much as I like watching it. It's some what depressing to me as I look over at my own dogs and realize there is no hope.......lol
Besides the fact that both of them act more like slugs then dogs. They do nothing on command.
Sure they lay down. All the time. Cody sits cause it's easier then standing. Molly she doesn't do any thing at all. Well she would probably excel in the Stay command competition. Cause not staying requires movement and she just isn't in to that at all.
If they had a category for laying in walk ways. Cody would win for sure.
Molly would take home any prize at involved shedding.
Here they are doing what they do best.
Now that I think about it. Do I really want 2 dogs that are running and jumping all over the place?
I'm thinking these two are okay just the way they are.

A Big People Dinner
Bill and I had a couple from our church over for dinner.
Since we are pretty new to the church, we really do not know the couple well.
Every thing went great. They were right on time. The food was good. The conversation was good. We even got to go across the street for the 3 year olds birthday and have some cake.
After cake we came back and settled in for some more conversation.
It was then that Libby decided to drop the F-Bomb in the middle of our talk.
This is Libby
Gwad I love that kid......LMAO
Dinner $35.00
Desert $25.00
Your kid letting your church know, what your really all about PRICELESS.
Yea, I all ready have the MOTY award, but I did go dust it off after that.

What I wanted and What I got
What I wanted was a yappy little little lap dog.
You know the ones that scream, put a bow in my hair. The ones you see sitting on people laps while they drive down the road.
What I got was this
This is Molly.
Molly is a mini beagle. Her look is the only part of her that resembles a beagle.
She is not a happy loves everybody type puppy, the way most beagles are.
She is also not much of a lap dog.
In fact Molly's favorite past time seems to be doing her Eeyore impression. As you can see in this picture. Head hanging looking sad is by far her favorite look.
Just about the time I think I need to find a good doggie therapist. She snaps out of it and acts like a happy go lucky dog for about 5 or 10 minutes.
As you can see from the photos, I tied a bow to her collar. She isn't the least bit happy about it, but then I'm not to happy with her either. If she isn't going to live up to being my lap dog. She can at least look like one while laying under the table.
