random thought

You'd think living in a large city in the mountains that people would know how to drive in bad weather.  The roads were a bit wet this morning.....nothing horrible. I took my older son to school and by the time i got home I was saying I'm hiding inside.

I stopped posting on here because blogger posted my phone # instead of a post. I use my phone pretty much as my camera. (Gotta love multitasking things). It was sent via email. Yet, posted my phone #. Still makes no sense.
Here's to hoping it was a fluke.

no sarcasm or joking today

As the mother of a kindergartener and high schooler, I can't honestly say I don't know if I'm more frightened or angry.

Yes, the shooting in newton, Connecticut.

Children. Small children.

Why?

It's just disgusting.

I don't want to hear anything about mental health problems. Anyone (sick or not) would not murder those kids.

#29 will miss about florida

you know those things you never realized you'd miss... but do.

i never thought i'd miss, of all things, the movie theaters there. i lived very near disneyworld/epcot/etc etc. like close enough to watch the fireworks every night close. so, everything was nice for the tourists.
the theaters around here are smaller, the typical movie snack and the chairs are no where near as plush.
i would see movies at downtown disney or universal studios citywalk there. the chairs either rocked or reclined, amazing sound systems (hey, it was disney).

i find myself not going as often as i did. but, i also work a lot.

Outside Lexington

This isn't something I thought I'd find outside Lexington ky.

things i've learned of lexington

50 degrees (f) is not freezing cold. You just need a hoodie.  They don't have the horrible humidity here. Less water here.

accents

I'm a Northerner who went to Florida for awhile. And somehow ended up in Kentucky. only part of the week.
So, even though this is a large town, I still stick out with the way I tawk dude. yeah, north jersey meets the surf.
Whenever I hear people say words like y'all...... shiver.
Today, I learned another word that sticks out. Sprite. Yeah, the soda. But, around here it's more pronounced spraahite. i tend to giggle. Of course, they probably laugh when I say tomata or water (my sons tease that there isn't a d in water).
