I am so happy

We started a new story board for Messy thsi morning
new morning routine

it is perfect!

I just wish i had remembered to put in "take medicine" but that is no biggie

instead of rushing around we actually had time to color before he bus came

beautiful morning


Do you know anything about artificial ponds?

Last year Mapboy and I created a little artificial pond...yeah it started out as a bird bath, but it was actually cheaper to get the little pond kit so we did it

anyway last year I left it all winter and in the spring it was DISGUSTING and I vowed to empty it out before winter this year

So I went to do it but

started taking out the water (it's small only 35 gallons

but as I got down I found a frog
upon investigation we found 4 frogs hibernating in the bottom of the pond

ok change of plans I don't want to kill the frogs so I added some water back in it and replaced the filter and turned on the pump


but what am I going to do?

keep the pond filter running all winter? what will happen when it freezes?
should i turn off the filter?

will the frogs be OK?

*sigh*

I don't want to say anything bad but

why is it that a white boy is kidnapped in Nevada and it was on the headlines, you couldn't even go anywhere without seeing that blond boys beautiful face


So now there is a child missing in Illinois and really, the only reason we know about it is that the kids aunt is famous....seriously do you even think it would have made the national news?

is it me? can anyone explain to me why MSNBC has an artical abotu it without even a picture of the child, so you could say something if you saw him? CNN has a picture of him, you have to click for it, Fox News you have to search for hte story but at least they have a picture of the child there

this is frustrating

why is it not news? why is it not everywhere you look?

just wondering if there was a reason other than "he is african american"

is it me?

maybe I am jsut too grumpy this morning

I pray the little boy is ok

:(
