Something that pisses me off

Did you not see the lines? Are you that stupid that you think someone is going to hit your "new" car? Super annoyed!

Zombies....really kids?

For some reason, my sons have become obsessed with the movie "Zombieland" since they found it on Netflix. I like this movie too, but come on kids, let's take a rest from Zombieland and move onto another more family friendly movie!

Speaking of Zombie, I will be going to the Rob Zombie concert on July 16th with one of my oldest friends! If any knows me, you know I have liked Zombie since I was in ummm.....7th grade.

My boring posts on books...

I have read two new books that I really enjoyed. The first one: "These Hidden Things" had a twist at the end that I would have never even guessed.


The 2nd one was "The Girl Who Chased The Moon." It is a cute easy read kind of book. I enjoyed it. :)



Also, I am now about a 1/4 of the way through the 5th Harry Potter book. I have until July 15th to finish them all! And watch the movies!

Neglecting the blog...

Dear Blog (and blog readers) --

No, I have not been neglecting you. I have just been really super busy. But don't worry, I will update you soon with lots of fun stories and pictures and whatever my heart desires. You might just have to wait until I have more than 5 minutes to type something up.

Love -
Morgan

Rockfest 2011

I love this concert! It is my favorite one of the year. I love going to shows and this one is just so much fun. Went with great people and had a great time.

It was also reported that Bikers for Babies raised $15,000 at the event! Where else in the world would you ever raise that much money? This is one of the events I volunteer at annually. You can usually find my working my ass off at the registration booth!

Here are some pics....enjoy....

The sink...why would I lie about a sink?

The sink in my classroom has been making sounds on and off for the past week. It turns itself on and freaks the children out. Well, we reported it to management so we could get a plumber in to get it fixed.

One member of management actually thought it was okay to say "I think she is making it up". Really, when how many people have heard it? So, I recorded it for them on my camera. Just think of having to listen to this numerous times throughout the day.

When I showed them this video, I asked "Do you believe me now?" and the answer was "We never didn't believe you". Yet, said in front of numerous people that they said I was making it up.

Why the hell would I lie about a sink making noise? What benefit do I get from that? I just wanted it fixed!


What I am looking for....

I keep getting asked....what am I looking for in a relationship? I have a simple answer. I am not looking for a relationship. I am perfectly happy where I am in life right now. I don't need a relationship to bring me down. Hello, I just got out of an 8 year marriage. I don't want to jump right into something right after that!

So, my point being: I am looking for friends. Friends make me happy. They make me smile. Of course, there are different types of friendships I have with people and I am certainly fine with each one. That's why they are still my friends!

And if you know me, there is not one particular kind of a friend that I seek. Everyone is so diverse and different, but we get along wonderfully!

New Fish!

I got some new fish for the kids. It was kinda weird having an empty fish tank in my front room. I got them two bubble eyed gold fish and two large goldfish. They like'em!

Last Meeting as Daisy Girl Scouts

We had our last meeting as Daisy Girl Scouts! Next meeting, we will officially be Brownies!


Day 30 - A Picture of Someone I miss

I can't even look at this picture without tears welling up in my eyes. I miss her so much.

Day 29- Something that always makes me smile

Reading and seeing this always makes me smile! It is so true!

Day 28- Something I'm Afraid of




I have a fear of falling. Therefore, the Ripcord at Worlds of Fun would be my ultimate fear. Which, by the way, I am going to face this summer and go off of it! Thus, completing one of my 30 before 30 goals!

Day 27 - A picture of myself and a family member

Day 26 -- Something that mean a lot to me

I seem to be repeating myself on some of these!

March For Babies 2011

For the past 5 years, I have been volunteering for the March of Dimes -- March for Babies event.

It is so encouraging to see so many people out to help babies have a wonderful start at life.

This year, I created a Family Team for our Better Together Committee at my work. We had 5 people sign up.

I had such a great time and I am proud of my team members that raised money and actually showed up at the walk. Maybe next year, more will attend and participate. It is so much fun!
