Yoders and Vegas

I decided to take my mom out on a date and I wasn't sure what to do or where to take her ... I hate it when that happens. The intention to do something nice is there, but the ideas escape me. Ha ... Then it hit me, well sort of. I picked up a Pulse Newspaper from a year ago and the cover shot was of this "uniquely large" drag queen. I read the article and had my idea! Every Sunday at a local restaurant in Virginia Beach called Crocs, there are 2 Bunch sessions. (11 or 2) you are seated among a ton of other patrons. The show started off with a GORGEOUS Drag Queen who came out and had the BEST potty mouth I had ever heard! She was beautiful and tall and had raunchy class! It was fantastic. Needless to say my mother was a bit surprised!!! She didn't know that she was going to a drag show ... and it was her first one! The Drag Queens were fantastic. The dancing and singing was great! The environment was enjoyable and fun. The waitresses were on point and supe...

This was my husbands post on Facebook today ... "Got one of the worst phone calls at work a Dad can get today. My 4 yr old son passed out today at Pre-school during story time. Thank God that he was sitting down when it happened and he did not hit his head. He was unconscious for nearly 5 minutes. We immediately took him to the Pediatrician an they suspect that he had a seizure. Gabriel is doing just fine now, but we have to take him in for an EEG in a few weeks to learn more. The scary part is that the doctor suspects that he has been experiencing this for a while now and may not have though to say anything because he may think it is normal. How scary is that???!!!" Scary moments happen all of the time. We go thru them when we drive and the guy in front of us slams on his breaks. We go thru them when we see that 866 number call and you KNOW that it is the bill collecter. I will keep everyone updated to Gaby's progress. :) Thanks Guys!!!

School called my work ... here is the convo: Teacher - "Hello, may I speak with D's Mom?" Me (I'm gonna kick his a$$) "Yes, this is she. What did he do?" Teacher - "Oh no, this is a good call. We are moving him up to Pre-Algebra since he is bored in 6th grade math and exceeds our expectations." Me (I need to mentally apologize to D) "That is fantastic, so you're telling me he is NOT in trouble, correct?" Teacher - "Ha Ha, no ma'am, he is NOT in trouble. He's actually has the highest grade in the class." Me (He must not really be my son) "Wow, my mother never got a phone call like that! Thank you!" Teacher - "Well, then maybe he is making it up for the both of you!" Me ... ... uhhh ... ... "Well, thanks for letting me know. Have a good day now." I'm not sure if she was insulting me ... or praising me for raising such a smart young one!

This is the reason we were able to enjoy this day ... I am thankful for equal rights while still respecting diversity. I am happy that things are supposed to be this way, but the ignorance from each race keeps suppressing each cultures... we need to stop it. Yikes ...

Just watch the video ... it is the most Powerful things I've heard in a very very long time. This makes you think about who you are and who has control over you and your views of "Religion."

I've been dog sitting an American Bull Dog for my girlfriend. Her husband has orders to Hawaii ... she is flying in today (well, she will be landing tomorrow) and she is coming to take him to Hawaii. I will be super sad because my family has grown attached to this adorable BIG dog for quite some time now. Tell me this isn't the cutest thing ever! I mean we were able to get him to sit with a pair of glasses on his face! Fantastic! We will miss our Patches but we know his family in Hawaii has missed him. He has been a wonderful temporary addition to our family (I'm sure that if anyone attempted to break in, they sure as hell thought about it twice!!!)

So today my son comes downstairs humming the most familiar tune... "I'm squishing up a baby bumble bee ..... Won't my mommy be so proud of me ....." I love my little bits of nostalgic time ... So I started to sing it with my adorable 4 year old. He stops singing and of course I didn't notice. My husband has to tell me that the baby has stopped singing ... And he does not like it when I sing with him. A little embarrassed, I stop singing and sure enough, he proceeds to sing his little heart out. Maybe my next blog will be about how a 4 year old can hurt your feelings! Haha
