The kiddo passed his Learners Permit with a wonderful 86%. He needed to 80 to pass so he did good! Tomorrow we are off to the High School parking lot so that I can teach him a little bit about driving a Stick. He is so not looking forward to that! I was thinkin’ of getting him some iphone accessories as a bribe, but we decided on a new Wii game.
He really doesn’t want to learn Stick, but since thats all we have . . . he has no choice. Besides, I want him to learn how to drive, and not just sit in a car and push ‘go’ and ‘stop’. I mean really! If one can drive a Stick, one can drive anything!

I dont normally use my Credit Cards, but I do have one that I use for stuff when I dont have cash handy. I always pay it off at the end of the month too; hate interest!
One weekend a while back, we want to Bajio’s for lunch and charged $19. Since I am like really strange, I check my card balance online every other day. Low-and-behold, there was the $19 charge PLUS $29 ! I am like…wha…..? I did not go to the restaurant twice in one day! I am not sure if they are a merchant account reseller so I disputed that charge! errrrr.
But, just the other day, my Card company credited me back the $29 smackers! I did the dispute all online too, did not speak w/one person. I love not speaking to people!
So I think I will stick w/this card for a while. I do like them; its not like I work for them either, heeheehee.

After having four days off work and being able to sleep in, I have decided that I really really really dont like getting up in the mornings! I hate it!
I have noticed that when I get to sleep in I am a much better person; happier, nicer, more polite and just all ’round a good person. When I have to get up before the crack of dawn and spend most of my entire day sitting in and working on office furniture at work, I turn into a grump. and I dont like being a grump. I hate it! it makes me even more grumpy!
The bummer part is that I will never really be able to retire either; I have to work till I croak. How depressing is that!?

I actually took today off work! It is SO nice to have a Friday off. Even more so since I took Monday off too, wee hee! The weather however, is not lookin’ so good. It is almost mid June and its rather on the chilly side today. As long as this happens only once a week I am happy. Last weekend we had a brief rainstorm and saw a double rainbow. Not sure if you can see it but it is here and it was beautiful !

I am finally done planting all my summer flowers. I planted some Sun Flowers seeds last week in a pot, and today put them in the ground. I hope they dont die now that the sprouts are in the ground . . . I dont have a green thumb at all! However, since all is done in the yard (is it ever Really done?) I can sit back and enjoy a couple weight loss drinks in the shade and just enjoy summer. I love summer and I love the heat! Glad it is finally here.

Friday at last. It has been a very long week. Not a good one either in regards to my eating. I went thru a box of cookies yesterday and today. Have you had those mini cheesecake ones? OMG, they are sooo good! I cannot stop at just one. But now we dont have anymore cookies in the house and I can get back on track-I hope; perhaps if I read some apidexin reviews . . . .

Ah well, tomorrow is Free Fishing Day here in SLC so we hope to find a lake that is thawed enough to fish! This way I will be so busy and far far away from food I wont eat!

Wow. This week is draggin’. and I am rather tired today. Since yesterday was the last day of school, and . . the last day of Middle School (High School is next year!), the kiddo had a sleep over par-tay. Three 15 year old boys at our house overnight. Needless to say, I dont even think they slept! I finally fell asleep around 1:30 only to get back up to work at 5:30. * sigh *
I guess they are all gone now as its amost 11am. I hope their parents were okay that I was not there this morning…. ah well. I hope the kiddo will pull down the roller blinds and take a nap this afternoon. All I need is a grumpy kid when I get home from work!

I hate this! I need to loose at least 14 lbs. Today it is hot; okay not really hot-but it did reach 70 degrees! When the weather gets warm and I am overweight, I just want to sleep. I dont need sleep aids, I dont need food, I just want to sleep. Makes for a messy house for sure. yuck. Perhaps since the weather IS warming up, I wont eat as much . . . hmmm, usually I do better in Winter for eating less, but perhaps I have changed. Lets hope so. uhg.

Today is the (sorta) last day of school. My son has decided to sluff tomorrow as it is Year Book Day and well, he’s a guy and not into that kinda stuff, heeheehee. Today his 9th Grade class went to Lagoon. Lagoon is SLC’s amusement park. It’s actually pretty fun. I love the place! I hope he is having a good time and I wont need to get any term life insurance for him as he can get pretty wild at time. ah, to be a Teen-Ager again. No Thanks !
