Three Wishes

You know, it is funny how the three wishes you would make as a child changes to three completely different wishes when you are a parent. I bet they will even change completely when I am a grandparent.

Today I would chose these three wishes...

1. A laundry fairy- The cleanliness of my house all depends on if the laundry is caught up, folded and put away. The problem is that laundry is my biggest challenge. I hate doing it. I hate folding it and I hate putting it away. Sometimes I can trick myself into thinking that it isn't so bad. Notice I said sometimes.

2. A tutor fairy- I would love someone to sit with my children everyday and be the bad guy with the whole homework deal. They could nag the children to get it done and make sure that they have read at least 20 minutes a day.

3. An business fairy- I need someone that can take all my business ventures and make them successful. Don and I have some great ideas, but I have come to realize that I suck at promoting myself and my products.

4. Wait, you say I only have three wishes...Well, this is my blog and I can change it to four. I would wish for a thought fairy- I would like someone to filter my thoughts and only let positive thoughts enter in and out of my stream of consciousness. I am my own worst enemy.

That's it. That is all I ask for. I didn't ask for a new husband, a butt load of money or better looks. I just wish things were a little easier. I feel like I am to the point that I realize that I am tired of always struggling and wish that life wasn't so complicated. But fairies are only in fairy tales and this is real life.

Jekyll and Hyde

I went to the best play the other day at Rodgers Memorial Theatre. My brother-in-law, Ken, plays the part of Sir Poole in the Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday cast. I was a little leery when I found out that it was a musical. I don't do well with musicals. But I found myself totally into the play. I enjoyed it so much that I am thinking about going again.

I might even start stauking the star, Danny Lasko. He was simply amazing. He smoothly transformed from Jekyll to Hyde and back again. He was very convincing. Ken told me that Danny was so good, he even scared the cast during practices. In short, there are just not words to describe how much I enjoyed this play.

If you would like to go or find out more information about the play you can call 298-1302 or visit their website www.RodgersMemorial.com. I am in no way associated with Rodgers Memorial. I just think everyone should get a chance to see this play.

Oh yeah, this isn't a play for kids. There are a bunch of murders and other adult like material. So if you want to leave your kids at my house while you go, call me. My kids will get them nice and wound up just in time for you to take them home.

Bigfoot Sightings

Don and I produced this calendar. We had a blast doing it. Dex created this video to help us advertise it. We are selling the first 200 for $10. The price will raise to $14 thereafter. If we actually break even and profit from this "little" project, we hope to use the money to travel to California and let our children meet their Great-Grandmother while she is still alive. Anything you could do to get the word out would be awesome. The website is www.moorecalendars.com.

When's my freaking break?

So I was about to blog and tell everyone that we have gone since Monday without someone throwing up. Then Zander threw up once again. I had it twice, Dresden had it twice, Porter and Ky had it once and even Don got it. I am sick of cleaning it up and I am sick of sick kids. Please don't tell me Ky and Porter are going to get it a second time.
