School Time Almost here.

I've been enjoying Summer pretty much, not having to wake up at 5:30 am to get Steven ready is been nice, but all throughout Summer vacation I've been up at 6:am.... (not much of a difference)

All of the sudden now in August with only 18 days to school start I'm up at 9 or 10.... (what a life!!!) NOT GOOD, next year Steven have to be at school at 7:AM which means he has to be up at 5:am to be pick up by the bus around 6:15 or so, men being men the kid takes ALL the time possible to get ready and set to go.

With seminary right around the corner Steven has more responsibilities to take care of.

ANY-WHO.... Life is good as it is right now, getting up late to a hot day of house shores is been .... .... .... (what's the word I'm looking for?) .... ... ... Relaxing? accommodating? Da-Bomb? ... not really.

The reality is that I'm looking forward to school days, that is the time I have for me, when the house is clean from 8-3 and noisy and dirty from 3 to the next day, that's the time I can go out and do my things, do some reading, some studding, and some work.

So yes I'm looking forward to a house of peace and quietness....

Almost Fall

Summer is about to end, ..... Alright we still have time , funny thing is School starts in one month and according to my clock when I start looking for uniforms is when summer ends...... (does that make sense to you? it surely make sense in my head lol)

Steven will be going to High School this September, and Samantha will be starting first grade, I can't wait to have the house all for my self.

With new "school Year" new things will come. I'm trying to get back to my things and that includes the book club, I had a long book, (that now that I think of would have been a good choice for summer reading), anyway instead of the long book, I have a book that was recommended to me few years ago it is call "Horns and wrinkles" by Joseph Helgerson it is a fun book good for all ages.

Hope you all like it read more about it here: http://myfriendbookclub.blogspot.com/

I had it with the Census

A week before I received the census form, they send me a letter telling me that in a week I was going to receive the form. A week after I receive it I get a postcard asking me to fill and send back the form they sent me the week before.

Now I get a phone call from the superintendent of schools telling me that I need to fill the census form and send it back.

what's the deal?

way to spend my money!!!

Fixing the Van!!

aturday was a nice and cold day, with a 5 pages paper and a
quiz to study for, I grab my gloves and went to work with Walter....

Oh Yeah! I worked!! ;) LOL

If you don't know, Walter is a certified Mechanic. he went to school so he can work on his own cars but never worked as a mechanic.

Anyway he had done work on BMWs and everything else from there, and last Saturday it was my Town & Country's turn.

I've been complaining of tugging and lack of power so beside the fart smell that the van was producing (which I was blamed for plenty of times) Walt suspected that perhaps a failure on the caliber converter would be the issue.


So the work needs a welder or some kind of tool that I'm surprised Walter doesn't have.

Until Kaynor Tech can check out the Van; I need to be mobile so Walter decided to check the spark plugs.

We discovered that 3 spark plugs were situated in the from of the van and the other 3 behind the intake manifold, which we had to remove, along with a whole load of cables and plugs, including the air filter tingly... (I can't know everything)

Anyway after hours of unscrewing, removing and braking things, we found out that I was driving (for who knows how long) with two broken spark plugs, that actually look like the originals from the factory.

We replaced the spark plugs and the cables because it come to be that 4 out of 6 were not getting any power, 3 were originals, and I really mean originals from Chrysler. And fix the brittle cables that we broke (and when I say we I mean Walter broke them).

AND fixed two gas leakages I was having (not me the van). So the paper had to wait until Monday because Sunday I van not able to do much, and quiz was completed Tuesday.

Moral of the story: I can get dirty if I want to.. :D LOL

2010 CENSUS

Did you get your letter?
I just did, but what was the deal with the letter I received last week saying this week I was going to receive my census letter?
Was that really necessary?... anyway over $400 million need to be allocated, if they need somewhere to put them I can lend them my basement.
But if they need someone to spend them I can gather few of my girls and we can help them out.

Something new to tell


The US Achievement Academy scholarship foundation has been informed that Steven has given the unusual honor of recognition as a national honor student.

I'm not sure what it means I just know 1. He's getting a full page on the year book, and 2. Steven will be able to apply for a $10.0000 scholarship with them. . .

That is good news, I think that life is full of good news we just sooooooo worry about the bad things we lack to see the blessings we are receiving.

Well what's new.... beside the fact that I have not been posting squat, not much.
School is doing good, I'm in the "President's List Honor" for having GPA average of 3.96 or above. "yes I know"!!!

I just finish my term and I think I have two weeks off, I'm not sure when my next term starts, I know is in late February. Next classes are going to be awesome, crime analysis and Computer technology.

you out a blessing, that
there shall not be room enough
to receive it
