Bridgette girl I so can feel your pain. When I was married to my ex we moved to Washington state and my mom and I are VERY close as well. Sometimes I could throttle here too LOL but I think that is typical of someone who you are close "friends" with. But anyway I had a REALLY tough time being away from her for the three years I lived up there. Plus I was just homesick in general so I totally understand what you are going through. I wish I lived there so I could hang out with you to make it a little easier!! ((hugs)) and as the girls said you are a strong bright gal and I KNOW you will do great. Just try to keep really busy and get really involved in all of your activities and that helps and WE are here too!!
Deb hope you are feeling better and sounds like you got a great guy to help you through it
Callie haven't looked at the house yet but glad you are getting what you want!! Congrats!
Katie congrats on the job!! Here's to hoping it all works out and even if not that is a great accomplishment to make it this far!
Capri keep up the good work on your school work and HI!

And Donna sounds like you had a blast as well! Glad you had fun with your friend.
Oh and Beth Hi to you to and sounds like you guys were having a fun mom and daughter day yesterday
My day was interesting to say the least. I was NOT happy when I got there but Katy and Shane went and talked to the coaches and instead of putting her in the butterfly they put her in the IM! That is the indiv medley which is all 4 strokes!! That is a TOUGH race for a kid. That is butterfly, back, breast and free! She did it but came in dead last of course. I was so proud of her for doing it though. She was scared to death and didn't want to do it but I was just proud that she even did it!
I think it ruined her for the rest of the day though. She was the back stroke leg in the medley relay and they put her on a different team than last week and her team took 6th cuz they weren't that great. Then she swam the indiv back stroke and AGAIN she took 6th wereas last week she got 2nd I think and had dropped her times and I think this week they went up!
Then she did the 50 free which is normally her good stroke and last week she got 1st as well as dropped her times and was almost a whole pool length ahead of the other swimmers well this week she was last again! She went up on her times as well 5 whole seconds. She was just devestated and wanted to go home. Well then they had a scratch in the free relay at the end so that perked her up a bit and she got to swim that and her team took 4th. So after all was said and done she got to swim 5 events and she got 4 6th places and 1 4th. Def not her best day but she did her best considering.
SHELBY on the other hand had one of her BEST days. She swam the 25 free and dropped her time and took 3rd in her heat. Then she did the back stroke which she hates and normally doesn't do well in and got 3rd again and again dropped her time. And then they put HER in butterfly as I said and she actually did NOT get disqualified which I was afraid of AND she actually got 3rd!!!! I couldn't believe it! Although they messed up and gave her the wrong ribbon (a 5th) so I need to get that fixed and NONE of Katy's were in the box so hopefully they will be when we go on Tues (we aren't going Monday because they are having a special thing). But all in all after everything at wasn't TOO bad. The girls said they want to stay through the end of the season at least but I still feel like if they don't start listening to what the girls want then we are going to look for a different team!
Anyway then on top of it all Shane got a call from his mom and Lynn ran off again and so they kicked her out. So she is back to her old tricks. She is in contact with Shane but they had to put out a missing person's report on her since she is not living with anyone and she is just staying with some boy and the problem is now that she is on probation I don't know WHAT this is going to do. The PO TOLD her that if they kicked her out that is was NOT going to be good for her. I told Shane I KNEW this was going to happen. So they are going to bring her stuff down today and she is supposedly going to come pick it up so once again NO church. We have to stay home so his mom can bring her stuff and so Lynn can supposedly come pick it up. Then tonight we have our Girl Scout party but I don't know if they are going to get to bridge or not since our leader said she may not have gotten their vests. UGH! What else is new. We have NOT had a very productive year this year but I am NOT surprised. We haven't done ANYTHING we were supposed to do so this would be just ONE more thing and it figures it is the year KATY is supposed to bridge. Oh well. Anyway. That's all my stuff.
I hope everyone has a GREAT day today will see yall tomorrow!!
