I am failing as a blogger

I am failing as a blogger...and well...I just knew it would happen!...and yes, I am still blaming my computer...well....mostly anyway.....
and actually I am not even blogging much right now...just have to insert pics that make me laugh to hold you over (whoever you are that read my failing blog).....of course I stole the pics from Heidi...and let's just put it on the record RIGHT NOW.....I steal ALL my pics from Heidi or Hollie!...having said that...here are some funny Easter Day pics that make me laugh!....the Bucket Head girls are how I feel MOST days.....and with my failing eyesight...Carter and the "looking glass".....gave me a great idea...do you think I could just tie one of those around my neck??? Because I am seriously blind to all small print and more times than NOT I lose my
"cheater" glasses...I think this would DO the trick!!!!.............and well....that's a RAP....per usual computer activity....it isn't cooperating YET another time...so will add pics later (I hope)...so that all these words make sense...

Job Update

Here are some little characters that have been "typical" craft projects for our Mommy and Me classes....this particular one would get split into 3 sessions... i pre-assembled the little characters...etc. etc...the children absolutely adored painting them...of course with the watchful eye of their mommy, grammie, or nanny!....but NO MORE!!! boo hoo....it is gone FOREVER!...All the calls made to corporate, did indeed make them notice CANTON GEORGIA...but to no avail! I must admit, that from a corporate standpoint....(not that I like corporatizing in the first place)......but out of over 950 stores nationwide....only 12 did well in the class program...and our store did amazingly well...but to them it wasn't enough, obviously,.....and of course we have to be "streamlined" into all stores looking and acting alike.....and so goes corporate.... I have been offered the part time position of event coordinator, which is the title my current boss has had, she has to work full time so will go elsewhere....so that is what I will be doing for now... I will have quite a few LESS hours...which is good and bad...BAD for the paycheck...GOOD for my constant state of fatigue...I am glad for a little "break"
Things are changing at the store...and I now have to wear uniform colors....black, collared shirt with light color khaki bottoms....I kind of "rebelled" at the idea...but honestly...it does look rather nice to see everyone somewhat in uniform....it is easy to know what to wear too...but kind of "squelches" any creativity in dressing! (not that i had much, to be honest....i got too messy with paints and all...always wrecked my clothing!)
So I am being trained this month for my duties and will be the official EVENT COORDINATOR April 1st.
That is basically my job update.....lata gata

okay....here is the last post on our aquarium trip....this is a picture of me and the kidlets at Mary Mac's Restaurant......YES...all 4 children are STANDING....and yes,.....they are WILD and YES....their parents....who are waaaaaay at the other end of the table...(and if you notice I am waving my hand to get their attention)...much to my dismay...they ignored me.....and so this scene goes in most public eating places....i just try not to look ANYONE in the eye... :)...this would have been one of those times when Peter (who wasn't there that day because of illness)...would have marched his girls out and taken them...well...as Heidi mentioned in one of her blogs....we don't know where!!! we don't know what he says, where he goes.. what he does.....it is all a mystery....but when he marches them back into our presence everything seems just fine!!!.....well...we needed him to march each one of them out that day and work his GOOD DADDY AND UNCLE magic...whatever that IS!!! :)
























i think this was at the end of the day!!!
