Long but not long enough....

So..... Lone Star. No really, my weekend was fulfilling but shitty, does that make sense? I had an Art fair this weekend, now remember, I don't do art, I am the director of the children's activities, which basically means I am a babysitter for all the parents so they can walk around and spend money unhindered by their screaming children.(run on sentence much?) Anyway, we (read I) do all sorts of cool activities..Marble painting, beading, face painting, paper flowers, coloring, loom weaving, etc. etc. etc....Most of the time I have 3 or 4 volunteers one set from 9-12 and the other set from 12-4. This is perfect....if they show up. Saturday I had one person from 10-12 and then I was by myself(I was all by myself....Green day reference, anyone....anyone?) Windy as FUCK! Shit was blowing everywhere.... oh and lunch yeah right, no helpers no leave! Sunday was a little better, still didn't get any volunteers, so my MIL came and helped from 9 to 130 or 2ish. She was awesome. My daughter was supposed to help on Sunday but was assigned last minute project from her history teacher and needed to be at Lamy's house(her best friend, lamy isn't his name...) ALL frickin' day! All I can say is I AM TIRED, it was so hard to get up this a.m. So this morning I filled out a vacation request for this weekend, I am taking Friday and Monday off so I can catch up on sleep and Laundry and...and...and. You all know how it goes. OKAY, I think I am done complaining....thanks for being my shoulder to cry on. Love ya...xoxo

Fun Idea

I got this idea from Inmates to Play dates, open Google, write (in my case) Alexandra needs, and post the top ten things Google says you need.... Here are mine
 
  1. Alexandra Needs... to buy a tooth.
  2. Alexandra Needs... to steal Mary's stylist.
  3. Alexandra Needs... a dose of reality inducing drugs.
  4. Alexandra Needs... ample social stimulation
  5. Alexandra Needs... a surgical intervention.
  6. Alexandra Needs... to do original songs.
  7. Alexandra Needs... a part time job.
  8. Alexandra Needs... more than just a rat trap for this vermin.
  9. Alexandra Needs... YOU.
  10. Alexandra Needs... to give it up.

What do you think? Some of them are pretty funny. The last is pretty sad, I wonder who that Alexandra really is and what they need to give up? What about number 8..... WTF?  Do I really need a tooth...LOL. Thanks FITP.... That was fun!

Quick

Just a quick note to everyone to say that I had a doctors appt today, changed a couple of medications and got a refferal to see a sports medicine Doc...wOOt! My knees have been killing me lately. No joke to the point where I can barely stand from a regular seated position. Anyway, time to run off and get ready for the art fair! M.Y.L.Y.

Work sucks...

I am sitting at my desk, I still have over an hour to go before I can Leave and I was finished with my whole days worth of work by 8:30am(I get here at 6am). I have read every blog I can from work, some of my favorites are blocked..websense sucks, nothing from Blogger or Word press will load. I have not been around a lot lately as I am preparing for The ArtFest this coming weekend and it will be the first one where I am completely in charge, and have a real budget etc., of the children's booth/activities. Back in the beginning of my volunteer days(4 years ago) my mother was mostly in charge and all I did was paint faces, now ...it's all me. Sometimes it freaks me out hob-knobbing with all the influential people and lots of them knowing me by name(the mayor of Oro Valley came up to me at an event recently and said hello) but mostly I thrive in this type of social environment. I am sadly extremely self-conscious unless I have had a few cocktails or I have been around you a few times and am comfortable in your presence. I have a tendency(from my mother who is exactly the same) to insert foot in mouth more often than not, therefor if I don't know you i try to refrain from making an ass out of myself. I am not sure where I am going with this, I suppose I am just hoping that everything goes well this weekend and I didn't forget anything and am not going to do to "Foot" thing. Anyways have a good weekend and I will see you on the flip side...
