End of the week...

So the last two weeks of school have been busy - tests, papers, presentations. I completely bombed my presentation for Postive Psychology - I had it together the week before, but when I presented a week late, I just stumbled and stammered and sounded like a fool. ME - TALKING - in front of a group!

Talked about Older women and Younger men in my Human Sexuality class....I'm all for that....NO - wait, I can't be - Kent is OLDER than me ;) JUST KIDDING - I love my man! But this led to how older MEN are proscecuted far more often than older Women when they are with kids younger than the age of consent. The "teacher" from Willow who was arrested and charged with a LOT of charges - is listed on the family watchdog site - proscecuted for ONE count of 2nd degree sodomy. Makes me sick. Had it been a MALE - he'd be locked up. Freaks.

Nothing really exciting in my other classes....just the usual. Our school's weight loss challenge started - the first week I lost 7 pounds, this week nothing - but I didn't gain either. :/ Hopefully will do better this week.

So, we left for North Carolina on Wednesday evening - after I took my workforce issues test. Drove for a little over 13 hours straight. By the time we got here, I couldn't walk. My back was hurting so bad!! I'm going to contact the pain treatment center when I get home - gonna have to. NOT looking forward to the drive home :(

Spent time with my Aunt Marlene and Uncle Philip....Melissa and Carlee came over and Carlee is the cutest baby girl EVER!!! She has latched on to Avery - as most kids do! And she's 'playing with her friends' and 'I love my cousins'. AND she has an accent just like Melissa's and I LOVE IT! :) My favorite-est cousin Scotty will be here Sunday and I get to meet his wife. I'm trying to keep an open mind, but no one is good enough for my Scotty! :p Seriously though - the family loves her, so I'm sure I will too!

We went to Mystery Hill today - I'd share the link to the place, but I don't really want to recommend them. It was $74 for the 'tour' of the place....sheesh...what a JOKE. The kids DID enjoy it though! I think the adults didn't need to go through. Tristan got car sick on the drive up - a CURVY mountain rode, BEAUTIFUL views, but nasty curves. He said afterwards "getting sick was SO worth it!!!" So, as long as they had a blast and made awesome memories!! I'll post pics when I get home! They had a 'vortex room' where gravity worked differently. Balls rolled uphill, and water flowed uphill....and it felt like it was pulling you down when you tried to walk. Then we had a bubble room - the kids got to be encased in a huge bubble - they liked that too. Then we had a great lunch and came back to the hotel. The kids went to the 'gym' in the hotel - by gym, we mean, 4 machines. One weights, two treadmills, and one bike. WOW. Now, everyone is snoring except Tristan, JJ, and I.

Tomorrow we are going swimming, then the kids are going out for pizza with Uncle Philip and I'm going to party with Melissa! :) WOOHOO!!! Then BBQ on Sunday with Scotty and his wife, then we are heading home!

Alright, signing off and goign to try to sleep some more....was wide awake when it was time to try earlier!

Be safe and carry on!
