A day in the sunshine and rain...

So first off, the usual: I'm sorry for being a half ass blogger. (I really think that I say that so much that it may be getting old...) The second thing, Happy Memorial Day, everyone.  Not that I want that to sound like I don't care.  I do care.  I mean I spent ten years as a military wife but to tell you the truth I don't feel that the servicemen and women who are fighting to protect people who don't want our help to further the plans of an asshole that beurocratic idiots put in office...  sorry got off track.  Didn't mean to attack anyone... I just really didn't like Bush...

So the kids got back yesterday night and we kinda kicked it in the house.  They had to clean their rooms cause OMG they were trashed.  Randy and I discussed taking the kids to see Shrek: Forever After and imagine my surprise when I was informed that not only do I get to take the kids to see a movie that I actually want to see, he was going to give money for the trip!!!  Sometimes, just sometimes the man can be awesome. (If you tell him I said that,  you have to die)

So I got up and I basically played the SIMS all morning since my body clock is completely against me sleeping past eight am now.  I didn't tell the kids where we were going, I just told them to get dressed then for extra giggles I had them kill time for a couple more hours.

So finally I told them to get ready and go get in the car.  First off had to go to the drug store cause I am so not the mom that buys movie theatre candy.  Then we got to the mall and I got them lunch, chick-fil-a and while they ate I went to go retrieve the tickets from Fandango.

Finished eating and went into the theatre.  The kids were near bouncing at this point because not only were we going to see Shrek, DUDE!  we were going to see Shrek in three effing d.  How cool is that???  Got good seats too.  I picked a showing that I figured wouldn't be crowded and I was right.  We were at the top of the theatre.

Side note: OMG!!! Shrek 4 in 3-D is effing awesome, I would pay to see that again!!

After the movie, we went walking the mall, mainly to payless where I found the shoes I need to get Olivia and Jovaughn.  Kayla will have to get hers from Zappos.com cause she got the really wide foot in the family...

So then we walked back to the food court for dinner (So loving today right now because it at no time included me being in the same room as my stove) and it was pouring so we then went to Barnes and Noblle.

Stayed there for about an hour till the rain stopped then on the way home I decided that I still needed to run out the gas in the rental car so I envoked the ancient right of moms everywhere which was dazzling her kids by a long ass drive to basically nowhere.

We drove the coast.  It's amazing... you can basically drive the coast until you get to mannesquan and then you are in town.  Can't find the ocean.  Made a few right turns came back to the shore and came hoome.  Have to return the car tomorrow.

It's been fun.

Had a very good day.  Got hooked on a game called Evony... Think I found a new obsession...  great...

okay, goodnight!  Single and blogging is tired but has a terrific day!
