Trying to keep someone IN timeout

So I’m sure most of you that know me know that I got myself into a little speeding trouble! I got a ticket going 48 in a 25. Eek.
I went to court and got it reduced to a 38 in a 25 and I have to pay $185 and it’s 4 points on my driver’s license. I was told that I can take the defensive driving class and get it taken off of my record all together.
While I don’t know what it’s going to do to my insurance rates I think I might start looking for low cost car insurance. I’m tired of paying way too much for insurance and with my schedule opening up I figure I can really take the time needed to look around!

I should have known….I thought she would have lasted at least another week. She’s pretty and young and I thought that some of the teenage girls who watch this show would have called in to vote for her.
Plus, her performance wasn’t *bad* - just boring.

I’m always looking for friends online. It’s been great to find many of the people and friends that I went to high school with on facebook. The ones that I thought would have been successful and happy are now working at the grocery store and on their third divorce.
If you’re looking for a friend make sure to hook up with anne a lay apostle! She offers writings that are quite interesting and spiritual in nature. She tells a story like no other and if you’re looking for a good read or inspiration - look no further!
Now back to my bejeweled game. Watch out peeps I have no mercy.

Right now I’m sitting here and watching the AI results show.
Have I mentioned that Crystal is absolutely incredible? OH YES I HAVE. I called it from day one, bitches.
Tonight the boys I think will be voted off are Todrick and Aaron Kelly. Todrick had a horrible song and was so pitchy. Aaron was absolutely horrible and his singing really hurt my ears.
As much as I love watching AI…with these two singers I wanted to shut my television off. Yes, it was that bad.
I think that Katie and Paige will be leaving when it comes to the girls. Katie is way too young and acts like she’s older than me. She’s been hanging around her grandma way too long and acts like she’s in her mid 40s. I thought Paige was decent…but her last performance was not so good.
We’ll see!

When our babies were small we tried absolutely every baby invention out there. We had the top of the line strollers, carseats, highchair, and baby carriers.
We are baby gear junkies.
There, I said it.
As much as I wanted to love baby slings and we had two different ones - I just didn’t feel like the baby was safe. I constantly felt myself holding it and with a bad back it didn’t offer support when the baby got bigger.
Margot loved the sling and used it when she was cooking.
We had the Baby Bjorn Active which was the perfect sling when Graem and Emmy were tiny babies. We used to put them in the Bjorn and walk around for HOURS without even realizing that we had a baby strapped to us. PLUS, the baby loved feeling us move and would stay asleep.
When Emmy got a bit bigger we tried the Ergo Carrier. So many people love the Ergo and I liked it when Emmy was between 6 months and 12 months. She soon learned how to walk and with that….she gained independence.
That got me into a lot of trouble since I had to have the $250 new Maclaren stroller and we hardly ever use it. Eek.
Maybe we’ll be able to use it for daughter #3.
Just joking.
