Just another Manic Monday..

Rascal Flatts was amazing!! Such great performers! Now Jessica Simpson, was alright.

The rest of the weekend has been pretty uneventful. Saturday did homework, grocery shopping, visited with brother in law, girlfriend and her little girl. Saturday night fixed Mexican and had some drinks with Jason & Josey. Love these two, such fun friends!

Sunday I did homework the entire day.UGH! My wonderful husband cleaned up the house and kept the kids out of my hair. He is wonderful wonderful wonderful & I couldnt do it without him.

I'm very overwhelmed right now with school, work, and life in general. I have a bad habit of putting off my homework until the weekend & it creates more stress for all of us. I've got to do better and have already started tonight.

Another one..

WOW! No posts in months & then 3 in one day. I just keep thinking of things to blog about.

I mentioned in another earlier post that I was thinking of getting my teaching certificate, not just stopping at being an assistant. Well I'm going to do it. Hopefully Fall of 2009, I will become a ECU Pirate!! (I'm saying this with all fingers, toes, etc. crossed!) I've got a few places I'm looking at, but ECU is my top pick..Montreat and Lees McCrae close 2nds.

So it looks like I'm going to be a student for quite a while, but it will be well worth it!



I promise this will be my last post for the day!

Well..not back to the Grind just yet!

Took lil man to the doctor...he has Strep Throat.

So another two days plus weekend before we will be back. Still going to Rascal Flatts though..lil man can stay with Daddy!!



I need some help as well..I'm looking for a new skin care regime.
I have acne and scars from teen acne, my skin doesnt get real oily and I'm bad about wearing sunscreen. I've tried Mary Kay Velocity & Timewise and well, I'm kinda meh about it. I need something with a bit of wrinkle help as well. (Ouch not even 1/4 century old and need help with wrinkles..scary).

Help me out, what do you use??

Snow Day...well, whats left that is.

It's been a nice week so far. Monday was MLK day, tuesday a snow day!!! and today is a teacher workday!

I will be back at the daily grind tomorrow. Then Friday is Rascal Flatts & Jessica Simpson concert. I have a feeling, i will either hate or love her. It's kinda up for debate. Though R.Flatts supposedly puts on a great show, so I'm sure that will be well worth it.

I've got lots of things on my to-do list for this month & I'm sure it will be another crazy one. Spring will then bring baseball,baseball and more baseball. Lil one will be playing t-ball & the big one baseball. Should be lots of fun & crazy scheduling, as in true Effler fashion!

School girls are having a indoor- yard sale in two weeks & I can't wait to get rid of a lot of stuff. Hopefully make some money too, as I've seen loads of new clothes I NEED!!! Yeah, need.

Out with the old...in with the new!!

So, since all the other blogs are discussing their Resolutions, I thought I'd do the same...

My resolutions are to eat healthier, remember my vitamins and exercise daily. So far pretty good. I did have a tiny slice of carrot cake but thats about it. I have low iron and should have been taking vitamins more before now but I've been slack.

I went shopping right before Christmas and was able to fit into a size 8 American Eagle pants and now I'm on a mission to be a tee total size 8. I'm a 10 now & would love to be a single digit again.

I need to quit snacking as much & thats hard with trying to pull late night study times and everything but I hope to change that when school starts next week.

I'm dreading going back to work and school starting back, I know its going to be spring before long and the boys will be playing baseball and more hectic times ahead. I'm also taking a full course load and so that will be interesting.

So..Happy Holidays...Late

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas & New Years!! We sure did!


We had some friends over to ring in the New Year, and had quite a few drinks and some Singstar on the playstation...Good times I tell ya. But this morning, another story.

I've officially become OLD. I can't keep up with them anymore. I cant drink like I used too, and def noticed we were some of the older ones bowling tonight. LOL. we are totally lame I know.

Quite sad, actually.
