My kid's graduation party is tomorrow. I spent this morning making over 400 meatballs, two big roasters full with homemade sauce. I never EVER want to see another ball....meat or otherwise...again. and Pasta? I no longer Heart you. You are evil.
I am tired. Dead tired.
We just got back from the church.....the tables are up, the place is all decorated.
Now...let the people come and give my kid money for college.
the end.
*********************
and Marvin took the say off to "help me"
Lord All Mighty I wanted to kill that man.
He has been in my way all. day. long.
I had to find things for him to go and do, just to get him outta my hair!!!! But do not worry, all you Bloggers...I told him thank you honey over and over and over again. He thinks some alien has inhabited my body I was so freaking nice to him! :)
**********************
So me and the kid just got back from our walk. he has been walking with me lately since I lost my walking buddy..i.e. my guy friend who used to walk with me all the time. I like walking with him, (my kid)...we have some really good conversations while walking. I will miss him when he leaves for school.
And speaking of school, the younger boy.....he is going to to go TCTC, which is like a trade school, for the next 2 years. well, I got a letter from his home school saying that he was 1/4 of a credit short in PHYS ED and would have to go to summer school, for PHYS ED, and it would cost $100, for PHYS ED. YOU HAVE TO GO TO SUMMER SCHOOL FOR PHYS ED??!!!!!
Went to the school to find out HOW he could be 1/4 of a credit short. here they have no record of him taking phys ed his freshman year. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? It's factored into his schedule automatically!!! So marvin called his gym teacher's husband (long story there...they work together) and she called the school and got it all worked out. he DID take gym his freshman year..she remembered having him. What a big run-around and mix up. And the secretary at the school is a biotch and was giving me a hard time about it yesterday. OMG.
********************
so now I am off to the bathtub, where I will soak for about an hour...turning myself into a shriveled up prune. Get up early tomorrow, get to the church...do more cooking and then party. Supposed to go out tomorrow night with My Girls, but who knows what I will fell like after all this mess!!!

Oh! I sooooo know these kind of crazy things with admin at school. Even though the Ponder kids got a great education, had truly outstanding teachers who will be lifelong influences and dearly loved - I can't say that I wasn't very glad to be done dealing with the fuzty-ness of the office.
Consider yourself fortunate that the 1/4 mix up was straightend out without much grief.
I don't think you have enough meatballs... seriously. I can eat 125 of those things myself..!
Ohio ISN'T that far away..! :0)
I will NEVER tire of balls - meat or otherwise. In fact, you need to send me some because I'm STARVING!!!
Have fun, and tell Evan that Uncle Tranny is proud of him!!!!!
XOXOXOXOXOXO
after all this drama, you might need DESPERATELY to go out with the girls... it would soothe.
1/4 credit?? ha.

You super woman is all I got to say!
You are an amazing mother, super human really. My husband is insisting on having it in the back yard. Full of weeds, what if it rains, we don't have enough chairs, etc. I'm calling a catering company today and if it is too late, I'm running away from home. Speaking of home, the house is a disaster, who is going to clean in? I'm scheduled for spine surgery 3 days after the party??????? My husband lives in this fantasy land and I want to live there too.
You are officially my hero Beth.
I love your photos, every time I click here I want to run to the beach. I'd have to go to Maine since it is closer, but it is still a beach.
XXXXXXXX
