the beat goes on...

typical week around here... us all running around like chickens with our heads cut off.

i got voted president of the PTA like organization at my girls school. sapulpa didn't want to pay the $150 a year to use the PTA name, so sometime in the mid 80's they came up with their own for all the school sites. TAPS or Teachers And Parents of Sapulpa. you can only do two terms in any office, so since the last president had done her 2, and i was vice last year i got the top job this year. i also do the yearbook for the school. grades pre-k - 5. this will be my second year doing it, and it's a lot of fun. i do it all on computer, no real cutting a pasting. last year's was great.

glad the cooler weather has showed up as of about 9am this morning! this last week was just nasty. i mean, i wasn't as hot as it could have been, like it was this summer, but we'd had a break and then all of the sudden temps at 95 again! yuck! since the first day of fall is this coming weekend i hope the nasty 90's are gone for the season... but this is oklahoma and we've had the upper 80's in november. and then the whole next 6 weeks after that is a total deep freeze with temps in the 30's and lows at night at just too damn cold. this is a weird part of the country. but that's why i like it.

shopping again yesterday. this time i had a $20 chili's gift card to use. so, we dropped some books at the library in tulsa, ate, and went to promenade mall. the candy store beckoned... i dropped $17 in there (had to stock up on big hunk candy bars, this is the only local place i can find them. i bought 4 at $1.50 each.) and another $20 at walden books. the new captain underpants book just came out and my 9 yr old just loves that series, and i got a maryjanice davidson i didn't have in the undead/wyndam werewolf series.

today we went bowling after cleaning the office. i bowled an 87... yuck. mom bowled a 114. my 9 yr old got a 68 and the 7 yr old got a 47. we don't bowl much, but it is a fun way to pass a rainy afternoon. bowling is on the pricy side, i spent almost $18 on shoe rental for 3 and one game. i'm gonna need to dig up some coupons or something...

no news from the ex-bestfriend front. she's pretty good at holding a grudge... and she can be vindictive... so i'll just let sleeping dogs lie. she'll see what happens when she goes to recert for food stamps... he'll be back in school and she'll be in the workforce whether she likes it or not. they don't let you live and not work if you are able anymore. i'm very conservative, if you haven't already guessed. no work, no eat! people shouldn't be able to sponge off the government. either be a productive member of society or get out of the gene pool so we don't have you breeding off anymore like you. can't stand leaches... can you tell!?

yeah, well, busy week ahead... more than usual... stay tuned...
