3. Let it work on our attitudes please!
4. Dirty deeds done dirt cheap! (What else could it be ??)
5. Ensuring a strong future is a responsibility that all qualified citizens must share.
6. If you have any not nice things to say, feel free keep them to yourself.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to watching Savannah compete at the Emerald Cup, tomorrow my plans include dinner and a movie with Amanda at this great place that serves adult drinks during the movie :) and Sunday, I want to relax with my family!

Wacky Monday
Last night Dominick complained at dinner his tummy hurt, sent him to lay down, fell asleep, woke up at 11m, running to the bathroom to throw up, continued until 4am, he is now sleeping.....really bad part of it is that today was the first day of SPRING soccer practice, and now he is not going. Also he had an appointment to get his implement and first part of his braces on, well they don't want any where near his mouth, not that I blame him.
AND it is SNOWING! Yes, big white flakes, sticking to everything. Does mother nature know what in the heck she is doing, the crocus and daffodils are blooming, and it looks like December out there.
What else can strange happen today??
