Late and Random

Well...this week was much more uneventful than last....no swearing crazy people yelling at my kid....and almost beating me up. ( I could have taken her!)
...just a regular week...but a good one...the LAST week of Tax Season!!!! woo hoo!
We are looking forward to our annual getaway....camping this time. I think it is going to be fun.
I want to update this more often...but I am so tired at night...I can only think of dumb random things to write about. like right now.
I can't stop thinking about how bad I want the Bare NAked LAdies to get back together. It just isn't right. cocaine or no cocaine...just get back together!
I had the same nightmare over and over last night. What is wrong with my brain? I would get up, go pee..come back and again...same dumb scary dream about me losing my luggage that had important things in it.
That better not happen again tonight.
If TIm Riggins is my boyfriend..does that mean I am unfaithful to my husband in my thoughts?
Good talks at Church today....one about marriage...and the faithful stuff.
Sadie hates being away from me. My fault..I hate it and kinda love it.
My best friend is 3. Does that make me a loser?
I wonder where we will live...it grosses me out to move into a rental knowing other people lived life in there. It is like a giant public bathroom. I get over it though. with lots of bleach.
My Dad is coming to visit. Hasn't been here in almost 6 yrs. Scared and excited. Glad he is alive.
I think we overwhelm people.
Hope tried out for Annie....she fell apart and cried with fear. She had to sing a solo....Seth took her. ( I kinda knew this would happen) Maybe this will get easier...maybe she won't want to do it anymore...not sure.
Luke is enjoying baseball....not liking the fact that his team is really small and probably won't win too many games. HE has great coaches that teach him....I am so grateful for that.
I hate when people spell grateful....greatful. I saw that three times today.
Ella and Sadie are obsessed with being babies right now...they even got out the old play pen and begged to sleep in it tonight, They asked if I would feed them apple sauce in it tomorrow. I said SURE!
Seth is wanting me off the computer.
See, I told you I should not blog at night!

peace!

smackdown in the Villages....almost!

Wow. Today was so weird.
Started it off normal....got the kids to school, got Ella to kindergarten....etc. Sadie and I did some shopping, and came home ready to make a delicious dinner.
Luke and his friend came into the kitchen as I was making the salad, saying there was a lady...the mother of another boy...who had been yelling at them..and had gotten into Luke's face and told him he didn't know who the F#$% he was dealing with. He said the real word. Then the friend says...And she got into her car and followed us calling us little SH#$S...and she is calling the F ING police.
??????
I was stunned. First... that an adult would say those things...and that my kid just said F#@$. twice. So....being the momma bear that I am...I got in my car and drove over there.
"If she hits me , call 911"
Really, Mom?
Yes. really.

Before I am even around my car, she is coming at me. yelling, accusing, swearing, telling me my kid is a bully, she is calling the cops, etc.
I was so calm. ( yes...ME!!!!)
I told her I was over there to find out what happened. She didn't need to talk to me like that.
She didn't like that....she is an f ing adult, and I better get off her property....etc. ( by now, she is in my face...like 2 inches from my face)
I looked down at the sidewalk that my feet were on and said. "I am not on your property , and you are welcome to call the police." When there is a incident with my kid...I get involved...I am trying to figure out what happened...which is what you should have done before chasing down kids in your car, swearing at that them. Seriously!????
It went in circles for awhile...I remained calm. ( I know...crazy!!!!)
She and her husband apologized for the language and the craziness.. just before the mother of the other boy shows up and it started all over again.
We got back around to apologies, and I asked if she could get her boy to come out for an apology. ( I really wanted to see the scuff marks all over him that the Mom said he had, that Luke swore could not have happened)
He had none.
I had Luke apologize for upsetting the boy in a football game. and told the boys I thought they were all good boys, none of them were bullys...and that they play at our house anytime. ( 5 mins after she told me that if she saw Luke anywhere near their house, she would call the police.) ( told you I was calm!!!!!)

Over all, it was so weird. Weird is not the right word. It was sad...it was kinda funny.....it was scary....and it was peaceful. That is how I know for sure Heavenly Father had a hand in how it all went down. I felt a calmness and an empathy for the family that I know was not from me alone.
I honestly think that my prayer this morning for good health and safety was answered. She was certainly capable of grabbing me by the hair and smashing my head against the curb..... just sayin.

The evidence of a Loving God is sometimes found in the strangest of places.
