Taylor Swift

Some time ago John took Scott to an Alice Cooper concert. He then proceeded to take me to Nickelback for my birthday. That left Faith out, so John told her that when someone comes to town that she wants to see he would take her. Her favorite singer is Taylor Swift, posters of the girl, Cd's, cut out pictures. For months we have been watching for when Taylor Swift would be coming here. I know when she is coming and I know when tickets are going to go on sale. I tell John that we need to get the tickets day the go on sale or the concert will be sold out.....three days later I remember we were supposed to get tickets. I go online to see if maybe by some slim hope there were still tickets left. Nope. Nothing. John finds a site that is selling tickets for 170 a piece and decides we just cant afford to pay that much. I however find 2 lower bowl tickets for $200. Seems like a lot of money but we bought them anyways. Her birthday is just around the corner and we would have had tickets had neither of us screwed up. So we told Faith we got the tickets and she squealed, yes she squealed like a little girl. Hearing that response John asked Faith if she would be crushed if I went in his place. She said no and we both squealed like little girls. John is the bestestestestestest ever!!!!

Blog blog blog

Here I am again blogging because someone DENISE that will not be named told me that I have to update my blog. It seems that this person DENISE doesn't think that a blog from Nov 21st is sufficient. This person DENISE should come blog for me. With that said:

Life has been hectic, a teenager and a tween. A boy and a girl. A video game junkie and an ice skater. My children couldn't be more different from each other and they keep me running in circles. I know all parents have to run errands and do things for their kids but bare with me because to me who never ever ever wanted to be a soccer mom this is crazy.

My week goes like this
Monday - Work/Faith Skating
Tuesday - Work/Family night
Wednesday - Work/Scott Scouts
Thursday - Work/Faith Skating
Friday - Work/Me and John Chiropractor
Saturday - House cleaning (how does it get dirty so fast)/Faith Skating
Sunday - Scott Church

I am a homebody but looking over my weekly schedule I wonder why I bought a house? Why didn't I just by a motor home since we are never home! Now Faith's skating coach says she ready for competitions!?! When are we going to do that? Not to mention that Scott is just barely old enough to get a job a few hours a week at the local amusement park, if he cant drive for two years guess who gets to do it. Not John who has been working 12-14 hour days lately.

I asked my kids the other day if I could be the kid because I am tired of shuttling people around. This of course was right after Faith came home told me she had a group assignment due the next day that we need to pick up her friend and then head over to her classmates house so they can finish it.

I now know why Mom's consider themselves taxi drivers. That is my rant for today.
