I survived my first week in big college. Yay me. 15 weeks to go until the semseter is over but who's counting?

other countdowns FYI.....

17 days until the first day of Fall!
soooo excited about this one.

56 days until Halloween
prob. my least favorite holiday. Really need to come up with some new ideas for the kids this year.

82 days until Thanksgiving! One of my favorites!

83 days until my first screening of "A Christmas Story", "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" It's a Wonderful Life", and "Miracle on 34th Street". My tv will then be permanetly set on ABC Family to catch all of the Cheesey Christmas movies. Last year my favorite was one called "The List", about a woman who makes a santa list and ends up getting everything on her list. So cheesy it should come with a side of cheddar, I loved it! Most people consider this day to be "black friday", but what better way to spend the day than a movie marathon? Although...I have been tempted in the past by fabulous sales. Postponing the marathon for a few hours is always a possibility!

111 days until Christmas!! My favorite!!

116 days until New Years Eve. Another good one :)

Out of the mouths of babes

We just returned from visiting the kids Grandad. I had an entertaining conversation with my oldest son. He looks at me and says "mommy, what does wreckum mean?" I am thinking, "please tell me he is not trying to say rectum." I say "wreckum?" he says yeah mommy, like when Grandad says "you wreckum?". Me-> "Oh!!!!!!!, you mean "you reckon?". phew! dodged that one! :)

Why am I here?

Hi everyone.

Or should I say "anyone"?? I am new to the whole blogging thing. I am not counting my 3 blog posts on myspace, ha. I have been entertaining the idea of starting a blog for a while now. I think it would be so much fun to do. I really enjoy all the blogs I read. They are all so interesting, but I keep coming back to the same question, "what in the world do I have to blog about". I am still not sure what the answer to that question is, but hey, here I am. I have no idea how often I will post on here, or what in the world I will write about, but a blogging we will go. It should be a fun ride :)
