So I guess it has been a while since I last posted...lol...thanks E for pointing that out!

Can't even say I have been busy...well I have but not so busy I can't post...just have not been in a posting mood. boyos are getting ready for school starting on Tuesday next week, R will be in 1st and S will be in 4th...it is going to be very strange having them gone for most of the day, I know I will miss them a lot so I have been trying to get in as much time with them as I can while they are still on vacation, tonight we went to the Thursday Night Market and they played on a bouncy slide. R, of course, was rather scary with his leaping off the top and bouncing his way down the slide head over heels, while S was a bit more cautious until he saw others bouncing their way down too and he tried it and the look on his face was priceless!! Tomorrow we will be hanging around the house playing games and swimming...ah, such is life! Am a little nervous about R starting in all day school, with a new teacher, new hours, no routine like last year and to top it all off his Kindergarten teacher left on a leave of absence so he can't go and touch base with her...which will make things a bit tough...hopefully the new teacher will listen and understand that he is a handful if you don't handle him the right way! I know, I know...she is going to have 19 other students to worry about but I will help as much as I can by volunteering if she will have me.

I start school the week after the boys and am kinda excited to start a semester that is NOT looking to be a hell semester! Woohoo...maybe I will keep my sanity through it!! During this upcoming semester I will be getting my application together for Clinical Lab Science internship at UC Davis and/or SF. This is more nerve wracking to me than anything else...for some reason I usually don't get nervous about things till they are right on me, bearing down, but this time I am nervous and they don't even accept the applications till Nov 2. Mostly because I know me, I will put off the app filling out stuff till last minute...maybe if I am nervous I will get it done early. I will keep an update going of the progress on the application...maybe that will keep me going too!

My mother is wierding out on me again but not totally surprised there...lol. She has invited (insisted) me up to her house for turkey day this year even though I don't have a car that can make it, a place to stay when I get there and she wants me to stay the week! I nearly laughed, but didn't...I will be going up on a train the night before and leaving the morning after...maybe, well that is the tentative plan anyway. It would be nice to spend a holiday with her...have yet to do it...but want to be able to spend some of it with hubby, dad and hubby's fam too. I hate holidays for this reason...not enough time to visit everyone indiscriminately so someone is going to feel short changed...I am lucky my dad is very cool about the no pressure thing...just wish my mom would get the message...seriously I choose to visit my dad more because he has not pressured me in any way.

Well, enough about my wierd mother...I know I am supposed to write some questions for E soon..and soon I will...just gotta sit and think...maybe after the boys are in school.

Wow, this turned into quite a long post...guess I did have a lot to say.

Oh, last note before I go to bed...I am debating between more Spanish and starting Latin...reason for Latin is that most of the scientific names are in Latin and knowing their roots would help with the bugs...any comments?

Night all
