Been awhile.....

Well, I did it, I quit!
I stayed long enough to prove I could do it and then I just decided it wasn't worth it. I was becoming very angry and stressed and now I'm sick. That's the way it goes, overload, stress and get sick.
It's such a relief knowing I don't have to go back..... for those who don't know.... I was driving the school bus from - heck, I'm so happy -yippee it's over!!!!!!!!!

long week.....

This has been one of the longest weeks ever. I had training all week, which usually lasts 2 - 3 days, 10 hour days. But, I got the bus from...well you know where and the kids are completely out of control. Three boys got in a fight Thursday - which somehow I ended up in the middle of, by accident I assure you. Anyway, one of them pushed me so all 3 were suspended. I almost quit... but my trainer convinced me to give it a try, or else she'd hunt me down....
Scary what the world will be like in about 15 years when these kids are "adults".

Ok then.... 

Why Jesse felt the need to spend money on a costume for the dog I do not know. 

Cat on a stick. 

I passed my CDL test Thursday. Who would have ever thought I could parallel park a 40' bus.

This is our dog Elsie.

finishing my thought

We are thinking about finding a good home for Elsie because
we just don't have enough time for her. This makes me sad - she is so sweet.

Trees are all bent out of shape.... 

Fences are no more or at least 1/2 gone... 

We live in blue roof city now... 

The crazy people who go out during a hurricane....

See the difference? 

This is the color I painted the "family room". It changes color with different lights. 

again and again.......

I am not believing that we are going to be hit by yet another hurricane.
I started training for my new job this week so I haven't had time to prepare. I had to leave training yesterday because of a toothache I'd been having for two days that was making me ill.
Unfortunately, I had to have it pulled and this was one I'd had a root canal and a crown on. Even though, it still got infected - yuckky. But, I am starting to feel better and this is good.

finally........

I finally got the walls painted, with a lot of help from Tricia, Chuck and Jesse. I can't get my pictures to download right now. I'll add them later.
I started training for work Tuesday... sort of boring but next week will be better.

This is actually after hurricane Charley. This picture was taken after all the branches were removed. You couldn't see the house at all until the leaves and branches were cut back.

this day...

Another hurricane is probably headed our way. I will not wait until the last minute to refresh hurricane supplies this time.

in the beginning..........

My friend Tricia and her daughter Megan came to visit this past week and decided I needed to "blog". Why? I don't have a clue. Taking time from everything else to spend "blogging" is like, yeah right.
