Stay quiet....


Well good morning! I am having a bit of a strange day. It may only be 8:55...but, my day feels half over! I showed up at my kids school. I was thinking I would be there for a few minutes, as usual. Instead, I see a protest going on. I guess one of our wonderful Governor's great ideas is to cut even more of the school funding. It is outrageous to think the budget cuts should go towards school funding and the police force. The two most important positions ever. Why doesn't his cuts go towards his own staff...or maybe they should try to stop staying in $900 a night hotels on the states dime...especially when it involves their leisure time. I am the type of person that keeps my mouth shut about every aspect in my life. I wish I was not labeled as a "sugar coater" but I am. I would do anything to tell some people how it really is. Why can't I be more outspoken, like most of my friends, cousin...or even my own husband. He will tell you the truth....straight up, and doesn't care how you take it. I do that...with him. I vent and rant, then I feel...Okay I have the strength to be honest. Of course, I chicken out. =) I usually will NEVER speak about politics because it is so offensive to some. This is the way I feel...so don't take anything personally. I just feel as if I am watching our country go down the drain. One of our next President's or Governor's are in this batch of kids that are getting a poor education. I am not comfortable with that thought. I am not comfortable with my own kids education getting cut short. They do not deserve it. The four teachers that were laid off today, do not deserve it...when all they are trying to do is better our future. Next, I will call the state number that was supplied for me this morning...to fight for what I believe in.

Onto something happier...can you believe my love's favorite song is "need you now"!! Wow...I knew I could get him to like country! He is so cute...he tapes them, whenever they perform on TV! Then, I asked him if he would mind if I go with Alicia to their concert in June...and he actually said...I want to go with you! Huh? What have you done with my husband! I think Tim McGraw has grown on him lately too...when you are forced to constantly listen to something...hey, it's MY car...I have the control of the radio! Haha...love it!

Last, our Ryelon is CRAZY! We just let him go up and down the stairs now...it is impossible to keep him off! But now, he can climb over any gate you put in front of him...even his gated area! See....

He loves it when you put him back in!! Don't worry, we let him climb back out 2 seconds later...his screams were turned into laughter! He is a tad bit of a drama king!!
