Thanks Cathy. will check it out..

School is going good.. math class is going good..

we are doing the power to parts..lol

like 3to the  power of 4 and what not. and solving the problem

in order like first doing the parentheis (sp) first then division before multiplying and then sub and add..lol

so as long as I do them in order I'm good.. .

never did that before and guess that's why I never got algebra..lol

but so far I'm getting it.. It's like a refresher course before getting

all into algebra.

my other classes are going good as well.

I am taking one class for beginning walking and jogging.

and I tell you what. my feet are hurtting today. well my left one is.I need some good walking shoes. so might just go look for some this weekend.

Kids are doing good.

Good morning..

and thanks guys...

Things here have been a struggle like usual but better.

I started my externship this week. and oh boy, the first day was wheew. went to bed and my head was still spining..lol

but I am getting the hang of how they run the clinic so things will work out just fine. I have to do 160 hrs before getting paid. if they keep me there that is. they did mention it cause they need the Spanish help. so we'll see..

school is great! I'm doing better than I thought. we got test scores back this week.. and I thought I would get at least an 80 something cause I really don't like reading and writing.. but i was shocked to see

that I got 100 on  my exam... oh man. I was like no way,, I got a 100? lol

I got my cap and gown ready.. I'm graduating from this program.

on may 10th.. mexican mothers day..

At first when I got the letter about graduation, I was like na.. I don't want to participate walking acrose the stage and cap and gown. pictures and what not.. It's not a diploma or anything huge. but the more I thought about it and the more I heard..

I remembered all the hard work and struggles I went through to get here. so YES.. I did send in mypaper work and all and so YES I'm walking the stage w/my head held high.. : )

The name of my program  is .. Medical Office Administration and Management. that is what my title will be.. : )

Whew. now I look back and wow.. I DID IT!

so a huge thanks to you guys for your support and umph and

all you've done for me to keep going.. been a heck of a long road!

SO sorry I've not been around the park much.

always trying to finish or catch up on things I didn't get done

and for now.. I have lots tocatch up on outside and inside

took David to CCD class and gets out at 10:15 so I have little time

to pick up around here but thought I'd drop by first to let ya know what's been going on..

Kids are all doing great. David stretching and will probably pass me by end of summer..... lol showed me his shoes tore so now needs new ones.. lol do boys tear their clothes more than girls? lol I don't remember..lol

well better get moving.. hope you all have been and are doing and will do great..

Ya take care. and have a great wonderful weekend..

lots and lots of hugs..

Hey Mimi and Friends!

Congratulations, Mimi! Yes, you do need to walk the aisle in your cap and gown. You have earned it. I bet your kids will be yelling their heads off at the ceremony.lol

I cannot believe this month is almost over. You're right it will soon be Mother's Day here too. Can't remember what day in May for here, but it's always on a Sunday, Father's Day too. I think that was a wise move for whoever decided to fix it that way on the holidays. That way you can have Church service with them and then go eat.

Son gets out of School the 26th of May, so he's got about a month left. My neice will be graduating again to I think from this last program, don't know what was involved in it.

I been making a few things to list on here tomorrow. Maybe they'll sell. Been thinking about trying out that place Ffuts mentioned a few years ago and they do get better prices, but their's is a store and you have to put a price on it.

Still sounds interesting, though.

Well, guess I better run along.

Hope everybody has a nice weekend!

Roll Tide Roll!!!!!!!

Hey Mimi!

Well, it's good to take  abreak every now and then, and I know David will love not having to share you with the books.lol

Son got out of School Friday and yesterday I was tempted to go in his bedroom and tell him to get up and get ready for School before he missed the bus.lol

That trick would've made him mad.

He's playing on the Wii now.

I've taken down the curtains in the kitchen and bathroom and going to take the rest of them down and wash them. It's about time.

Those two necklaces I made sold. A lady in Mexico bought both of them.

I made another one for Son's Basic Skills teacher in Math. She's younger than the rest of the women teachers and she acted like she liked it.

I gave the other ones a pack of note cards and jeweled bookmarks with their initials.

I bought the man teacher an Auburn cap and crochet him a tie in the Auburn colors. It's navy blue and orange stripes. I used crochet thread size 10 and it came out real good.

Well, gonna move along and see what's going on.

Hope you and David have a great day, Mimi!

Hey Mimi!

You know those Robot Wars competition they show on tv? Well, a lot of the high schools have a robot crew now for that kind of competition.

They build robots and compete against the other schools.

David might like to do that one day.

How is the little garden coming? It is so hot here. We've been getting tomatoes, squash, peppers, and corn out of our garden so far. Husband has okra planted too, but it's too small right now. Gonna be a while before it starts producing.

Son is with Mil. She may bring him home today. She picked him up Monday.

I finally got his report card that day. They had to come back by to pick up part of his water pic he'd left here and I told him he was promoted to 7th grade and had all A's and B's on his report card. He whooped.lol

Told Mil she's gonna have to nag him about using that and brushing his teeth every time he eats and what he can't have because of his braces. Have to remind him about putting those rubber bands in at night too.

I'm glad you got to be together with your family some, Mimi. I bet those neices of yours are young ladies now.lol

DD needs to get out. Hope she is still doing good at her place and enjoying her independance.

Has Jr. done any more art work? I remember he had some of his pictures on display once a long time ago.

Well, I guess I better go. Sis called a few minutes ago and said she was on her way.

Hope you and David have a great day, Mimi, and all who come in!

Roll Tide Roll!!!!!!!

Hey Mimi! Son is playing Star Wars on the Wii and so I decided to get on the pc for a little bit.

Mama had a stroke a few weeks ago and Sis bought two baby monitors off here.  I got one watching her now. It's picture screen is about the size of one on a cell phone.I hear what sne says too, so it's almost like being in the room with her, but a little farther off.

So far I've only had to get up 2 times at night. It was killing me sleeping in that recliner in her room. I'm one of those people that has to turn 100 different ways before the can get to sleep. Plus in the morning when I would get up out of that chair it felt like I'd been beat up.

Yeah, kids get bored with things pretty fast.

I agree on the tooth brushing, it's a job getting him to brush.

Neat about the multiplication money. He'll get it all before long.

Well, I got to get off the pc. I am so tired.

Have a nice day!

Roll Tide Roll!!!!!!!

Hey Mimi! Hey Ffuts!

Hope everybodyy  had a nice 4th. We didn't shoot off fireworks or go watch them. Me and Son did watch the fireworks on t.v. from New York and some of the Boston Pops one.

Washing clothes now.

I ordered a crochet magazine from off here. Had a cute hat on the front. You know those crochet hats that people used to decorate and would use for weddings, etc.? That's one of the patterns.

I wonder if any of those are selling on here.

Well, got to go. Got a lot of stuff to do.

Hope everyone has a good day!

Roll Tide Roll!!!!!!!

Finally.. jeeze this old comp.

thanks for poppin in.

Cathy sorry about your mom and hope both of ya are getting some rest. You are such a great daughter.

stubby. hi..

oh man things are going good. busy and busy but ok.

and this heat oh man. come on fall is all i can say..lol

thanks for asking about back to school.

I think we'll be ok this time around so thanks to all who have helped last time around really needed it then and appriciated it big time!

I got enrolled in my fall classes yesterday and this morning i took care of enrolling David for school supplies and a uniform. so all is going ok. I even went to the little clothes shop in back of the center i went to and bought me two nice blouses and a pair of jeans for $6 and got 3 cute hand bags free for the quick get up and go just enough room for cell ph and wallet ; )

for the past two hrs i've been trying to get into photobucket and load a few pics of graduation and it took me quit a while. forgot password and what not..ugh but I got it done..lol i just need to figure out what I need to copy and paste for link to post the pics. so much has changed in there.

Kids are doing fine. today is jr's bday and dd was on the 6th. they both are doing their own thing so hard to get together and do somthing due to work and plans w/thier friends but they are doing good. David will be 10 in Nov man my kids are grown. kind of feeling like ... what am I supposed to do now?

well better get going. am tired and it's been a long morning.

will mess w/photobucket soon and hope i get it right.

ya take care and be well.. ; )

Hey Mimi and Friends!

Mimi, it's a lot easier to just click on the paper clip overhead in the posting box. Then click on browse and pick out your pictures. It'll take it from your regular picture file. You don't have to go through photobucket unless you want to. You get 2 attatchments per post.

In the post it'll say attatchments and when we click on those it'll show two thumbnail pictures and we just click on which one we want to look at and it'll show that picture full size. I've seen some big pictures this way. It's neat.

Glad to hear you found some deals. I bet Dallas has some neat thrift stores. You should be able to find some really nice clothes considering all those fancy stores and rich people there. Even here the little thrift stores have some nice clothes, but the bigger the town the nicer the find.

I tell you what you do when you have time. If you can find some of those big name purses at the thrift store in good shape you could probably sell them on here for a good price and get some extra school money. I'm not joking. Them women get in big bidding wars sometimes over those bags.

Well, I'm gonna look around some and then get off here. Doily didn't sell, but the doll did and I don't know about this hat I got on now. Think I may just decorate it and give it  to Sis.

Hope you have a good day, Mimi, and all who come in!

Roll Tide Roll!!!!!!!

oops well it said i had two attachments but I don't see anything

no time to redo.

David is HUNGRY... : )

It worked Mimi. All you got to do to see the pictures is click on the arrow and then click on the thumbnails or the link under them and it takes you to another page where it shows the pictures.

You all look so nice in them. Look like your mom was having a good time fishing too.

David is growing up fast.

Lol, Son is too. Won't be long before he will be my height. I can already wear his socks and his hands are as big as mine now too.

Got to go get ready for Church.

Hope you have a great day, Mimi and all who drop by!
