Ever get the feeling the decision has been made FOR you????

Well I made the cut for the upcoming Hallowe'en show....................without even trying out! Imagine that! It will take too long for me to describe what I'm going to be in the show but basically, I'm writhing on a stage with a black veil over me. Then I get to dance to one of my favourite songs which will require a lot of shimmying for 7 minutes------I know, it sounds like fun right? Well it does to me.

My kids are getting ready to go back to school. By that, I mean they are going to bed much earlier than they would like ; ) We've got all the back to school stuff, I just hope I remember where I put all of it so they wouldn't wear the clothes!

Not much else is new other than I went to a horse show to watch my sister's horse--something I haven't done in a very LOOOOOOONNGG time. It was the horses' first show and she did well--my sister was so nervous it was actually funny. I used to be the nervous one at shows--I used to throw up before my class and once I nearly passed out while jumping a course! Anyway, it was a good time.

So now it's back to the grind of every day life and all the surprises it brings me.

It's been a while......

Between Facebook, emails and life, I just haven't had the time for this blog. First off, I'm not watching what I eat or how much and it's starting to show. I'm a little pissed at myself for that and now that BBQ season is winding down, it should be easier to get back on track.

Facebook--I'm addicted. It gets worse with all the applications and shit. Why can't I see the *naughty gift* someone has sent me without having to add it to my profile???? I still get sucked in though : )

Life--My tattoo has healed well and I'm really happy with it. I start school in September and I'm both excited and nervous. My bellydancing studio is holding auditions for a show they're doing the weekend before Hallowe'en. I'm kind of considering it however I'm not sure I can commit to the time requirements of extra classes, practise time now that I'm going to be in school Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. They want me to audition though.
Things on the home front are good. Chris is happy doing what he does and is pretty busy. The kids can't wait for school to start and have enjoyed their summer so far. My Mum's health isn't that great but atleast she's dealing with it. I haven't heard from my Dad since Father's Day---nice, so much for being in my kids' lives!

I can't believe the summer is almost over! It's been a good one though.....
