30 Day Challenge Day 10: What are you afraid of

ha..this will be easy. I will try not  to make it too depressing.We have already had our depressing post of the week:


  1. the sound of fireworks (sounds like debris hitting the car)
  2. being alone (a friend of mine's daughter made me feel uber craptastic about this one Monday)
  3. Justin Beiber (sorry P3 guys...who probably will never read this)
  4. severe thunderstorms...driving in them is even worse
  5. writer's block: soooo annoying. I lose so much time with this.
  6. bad hair days
  7. my friends getting hurt...I don't have kids so these guys are like my kids. I hate for anything to happen to them and I would do anything to take their pain away
  8. something happening to my dad
  9. heights do not bother me as much as the threat of the free fall
  10. needles

Justin Beiber, I honestly have don't get the commotion over him, but what scares me even more is how each generation of children gets sucked into a singer (Britney Spears, Miley Cyrus, Justin Beiber). I guess it shows my age that I don't care for their music nor see the attraction. I remember even 4 year olds singing and dancing like Spears when I worked in a day care. It scared the heck out of me. Still does :)

Best Laid Plans

I sat down and crafted a list of blog topics last night, and the plan was start working through that list tonight. It was going to be the start of a true reboot of this old thing. While I had planned on picking my stepdaughter up at the Boys and Girls Club after work I didn't plan on: 1) The amazon parrot needing me to make a food stop on the way home 2) My stepdaugher wanting me to watch her practice for color guard 3) That working on our budget would take nearly as long as it did. 4) Being this exhausted for no particular reason Now I sit here with a basset hound in my lap, and I am awkwardly trying to type on my laptop without disturbing him. This won't  be the blog I wanted to write tonight. It won't  be carefully crafted. That blog post will have to wait. Sometimes  you have to roll with the unexpected. Sometime you have to focus on what is really important. That means acknowledging that you have to make sure your priorities are in check. Sometimes you ha
