Graduation Expenses…

Why!?!!? is graduation so expensive?  I don’t understand why everything has to be overly priced.  There are so many things I want to do and can’t because the budget is already stretched to the max and there are still things I need to order and get.  ARGH!!!

I have always said that parents/students should be informed at the start of freshman year what expenses lay ahead of them so they can plan and budget.  I’ve recently heard of parents setting up a savings account for the kids graduation/etc expenses.  That’s an awesome idea!!! That way, there are no surprises or worries or guilt.

So, to all the new parents out there…WARNING!!!!  Senior year is EXPENSIVE!!! Start rolling pennies  :)

Getting Back on Track…

It’s soooooooooooooo frustrating to be off track when I worked so hard to get on track!!!!  I started a new job Feb 1 and that kicked me off track…I got sick…that kicked me off track…I couldn’t shake the sick bug and that really kicked me off track…I finally broke down and went to the dr and got antibiotics which I think helped but…I still feel so tired and sluggish and really really need/want to get back to my old self and back on track!!!!

I sometimes wish that I could just shed a layer and be fresh and clear-headed and ready to tackle whatever comes my way.  I think that’s why I love Spring so much.  I feel like it’s a time of birth, a time of fresh starts…out with the old and in with the new!!!!!

It is Spring…only Winter seems to want to stick around a little longer this year…bleh…go away Winter!!! You’ve had your fun…now it’s time for SPRING!!!!!!

Biting my tongue…

Sometimes I hate being nice.  Sometimes I really just wanna say what I’m thinking and damn the consequences.  Cause you know there will be consequences!!

Sometimes I bite my tongue so much I’m afraid there will be permanent teeth marks!!!  I think that I’ve always been this way.  Oh don’t get me wrong, I do speak my mind when I believe the time is appropriate – but, I’m talking about those random moments that spring up or those ‘are you kidding me??’ moments – yeah, gotta love those!!!

It’s rather refreshing to have those select few that you can speak your mind to without worrying about consequences.  They still love you even when you are the wicked witch and oh yes, they return the favor as well…makes for perfect relationships don’t ya think?

Who is your favorite Catwoman?

I LOVE Catwoman!!!  Always have – so hence my surprise when I found out that Julie Newmar was the original Catwoman in the TV series – alas she wasn’t in the movie.

So, while I did enjoy all the other Catwomen, they were all sleek, sexy, naughty and all had catlike qualities, I have to say that, Julie Newmar is my favorite.

She was just…well…meeeeooowwwww…lol…

After her I’d have to say Michelle Pfeiffer.

So, who was your favorite Catwoman?  and…why??

Playing with the Kitties…

I love playing with my kitties.  They amuse me.  I love how their cheeks get all fat when they concentrate on playing…lol…I just spent some time playing with them and Easter grass…they enjoyed playing tag with it and seemed to pout when I stopped playing.

I was surprised when Shadow started playing – I was playing with Onyx and then Shadow showed up and wanted to play as well – she has since left me for the food bowl but Onyx is sitting next to me, waiting for me to play again…gotta love the kitties!!

Time does pass rather quickly when you are playing with the kitties.  I can get sidetracked playing fetch with Onyx and before I know it, none of my planned activities for the day has gotten done…lol…oh well…the kitties do keep me amused that’s for sure!!!
