Hello,

Haven’t written here in a while, but do read a lot.  Nothing much going on as usual.  Work, home, sleep, kids.  That’s about it.

Report cards were OK.   Matt brought some grades down so I fussed.  I shouldn’t have as much as I did since it was mostly stuff like A’s to A- s and B’s to B- ‘s  but still.  He can do so much better.  Both boys can.  AJ brought a grade up.  My cousins’ daughter back in La had bad grades and sits and draws during class. I’m very lucky.

I’m off today.  I’m about to go back to sleep.  I need to clean as usual and might do some later, but I’m sleepy and that’s what I wish to do. 

Found an old friend on Myspace the other night.  Well I found her daughter and her daughter gave me her number.  I need to call her. I’m just not good on the phone. I’d much rather email.  I’ll make myself call tonight.  She used to be my boss when I worked at a customs brokerage firm in N.O.   Was a neat job.  She took me to my first male strip club lol.  Lots of fun.  Haven’t talked to her in years.  AJ was about two I believe. He’ll be 15 in March. Long time.

Erin’s birthday is soon. She’ll be eight.  Having a Mardi Gras themed party for her.  We’ll make a king cake instead of having the traditional cake.  They actually sell Mardi Gras stuff here in CT. Just not invitations.  Party City had all the stuff so you’d think they’d have invitations.  I’m sure the kids don’t care.   We didn’t invite all the girls in her class which I feel bad about.  We’re having it at my sister’s place so can’t have way too many kids and also Erin doesn’t play with them all, but I keep thinking about how those  little girls must feel when others kids get invitations and they don’t.  I hate all this stuff.

AJ mentioned a girl from school this morning.  He said he considers her a friend.  I’m glad he has one.  I asked if she’s someone he’d want to invited to his birthday party if he has one.  He said he didn’t think so.  Maybe he doesn’t want her meeting us lol.  I wouldn’t blame him.  He’s probably worried that we’ll think he likes her as a girlfriend.  I wish he would get a g/f.  He worries me. 

OK. I have nothing else to write about.   I’m going to sleep.

Bye

Hey Fat Tuesday is coming up isn’t it? I gotta remember to wear my beads to work. We have a very calm celebration with beads and colorful clothing. It’s good to see the kids are doing well. I wouldn’t worry about AJ, he’ll get a gf soon. Better to wait and be sure than to rush into things. I don’t think any kid wants to bring home their g/bf to meet the parents! I know I didn’t.

Oh lordy yes those kids parties are a mine field. Still I’m sure not everyone gets to go to every party, so you shouldn’t worry too much.
