uninspired...

i noticed while reading a friends blog that it had been awhile since i have updated my own! i'd like to say it is because i'm busy, but i think it has more to do with being uninspired. or feeling like i don't really have anything funny or wise to share. but here are some snippets of things i've been pondering lately.....

...my grandparents celebrated 70 years of marriage on monday! what will hubby and i look like after 70 years??? he'll be 100! wowzers...but if we make it that long in life i believe we will be happily in love still!

...how does one's head fill up overnight with incredible amounts of gunk?? where does that all come from?

...i learned that my esophagus muscles might be working against each other. that is why i've had this hard to describe bubble type thingy off and on for over a month. hmm...a friend asked me if the good doc gave me exercises. nope - just a good drug!

...i have gotten super spoiled by hubby's buddy's 42 inch flat screen tv. i don't want him to take it back!!

...i'm a sucker for my sons sad eyes on superbowl night. but i was greatly impressed when he held to his end of the bargain.

...i, the one who loves snow and winter, is so ready for spring right now!! i can't stand this intense cold and so little snow.

...i look just like my niece - something that i really don't quite see, but hey, since she is 18 (for a few more weeks) i'll take it as an incredible compliment! maybe i'll get permission to put a photo up and you all can decide.

so...that is just a few of the things i've been thinking about. see....so little to inspire that great blog post!

me, on politics

i despise politics. i never liked it, but i married a man fascinated with it. a man who wanted to be part of it all...and was, briefly. boy were our eyes opened... anyways...it seems like this election has several hot button topics. one of which is universal healthcare. my cousin started a blog called politics for mom and there have been several heated debates going on. i was reading several comments on healthcare. and frankly i was bothered! now, i don't know that a strict universal healthcare is the answer, but i do know that we have now doesn't work for the average person. here is our story.... hubby worked in a small business - 3 employees at the most that i can remember. we paid 1/2 our insurance..until it came to the point where our half each month was twice what we would pay if we were on our own. but for the owner it saved him money. so he agreed to cover ours in full. we were very grateful. i also know at times, that because of the healthcare cost, it was a struggle f...

the "calling"

okay - so it's been awhile since i've ranted...and it's time! it is beautiful outside and i'm sitting inside my makeshift office at the church. i am lucky enough to have a door that opens to the outside so it is wide open and i'm loving that. but as i'm working here today i feel the need to rant so enjoy.... being in my position i often have to ask people to help out. you know, volunteer to teach or work in the nursery or teach or hang out with the kids, you know - volunteer! i love all the responses i get. i am particularly fond of the "i don't like kids one" - it doesn't go over real well with me when they have 3 of their own. hmm??? but the one that really gets my goat is the "i don't feel called to that." argh...really!?!?!!?!? well, i didn't feel called to wipe my kids bottoms either, but it is a good thing i did it anyways. surprisingly, everyone feels called to the waterpark though! now, let me back up a ...
