Merry Christmas!

I remember my last Christmas with my mom. It was 1974 we all spent the night at my grandmothers house. I remember waking up and my mother was laying beside me staring at me with a smile on her face. She ask me If I wanted to come see what was under the tree. She got me this big teddy bear and a small dimond ring. It was a good Christmas. Like any other Christmas holiday you go back to school in Januray. I think it was Januray 5 1975. Get up mom takes us to school and you get back into the swing of going back to school. Come home and thats when thing change.

Not sure why this is hitting me hard this year but it is. All this week it has been on my mind alot. I am very lucky this year I have all of my kids home for Christmas and to stay and all of my grandkids what more can a mother ask for.

I wish every one a MERRY CHRISTMAS

Weekend

Well another holiday gone by. Went to the lake on Saturday and camp out with Bubba. Had a good time there were so many people there to come and see him. It was nice Schera had a big banner made for him and every one sign it and we had his picture taken with it. Jaxson was glad to get to go fishing and camping with him. The food was good. We got to talk to La Sha on the computer she got to see everyone. Sunday they had a fish fry there was alot of fish. It would have been better if there was more fish that didn't have bones in it. Them little bones are hard to eat around. But it was all good. Then the rain started to blow in. It was neat watching it off the water the lake turn green and you could just see the rain coming. Saw a rainbow and it was so pretty the colors were so bright and pretty and then it went away and then another rainbow came again it did it three times. But I didn't think it was going to stop raining sure was glad when it did. By the time it stop raining it was time for bed. Came home Monday and and unloaded the car and just sit around for the rest of the afternoon. Back to work in Tuesday and it was not as bad as I thought it would have been. Then I will be off again on June 4th and 5th. And then again on 11th. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.

Your Day!

We Love you Momo,

Love Bert, La Sha, & Peyton

DON'T NO ONE ASK WHAT AM TALKING ABOUT!!!

Well here it is Monday again and we start all over again. You just get up and go to work come home and you know I don't have to say it. Saturday was ok we got a lot of rain and it was so hard. But as always we survive the storms. Sunday night I shampoo my carpet it looks pretty good. Maybe next weekend I will do it again. Didn't go to sleep until after 2am had thing on my mind alot of disappointment running thru my head but hey so be it. People just don't have respect for other people or their rules they make and they don't have respect for their self. They don't have respect for other people feelings and for their belongings. They don't even have respect for their own things. How sad is that. You can even do every thing for them and they just take advantage of you talking about use and abuse.

But I had a very good day at work it was extremly busy so many cars down loaded. I took on another account at work I just hope that I can handle it. We get graded at work on how fast we get the cars in. One of my accounts I got a 5 and that is the highest we can get. It has not been a 5 in such a long time. It took me 8 months to get it there so I am pretty proud of myself. Now I have to be sure and keep it there and plus keep the other two main accounts up there boy the pressure plus I have to do a report on one of the accounts. But hey I can do it I just have to keep my system down and pace it.

Now that you have heard me vent and praise myself am out of here.

P.S. don't even ask

Rain, Rain Go Away!!

All of this crazy rain we are suppose to have and the wind is crazy. But I guess with out the wind it sure will be hot. Just got in from Jaxson game he had his picture taken with his team. He really did good today. He didn't cry not once. He usually cries when he can get the ball. He is such a ball hog. He wants to make all the goals. Well Jonathan will be home in about 3 weeks and can't wait to see him I am so proud of him. La Sha her heart has gone down in size and I am so excited about that and plus she is going to be moving down here can't wait. Jonathan should be back in Nov. for good then all my children will be here home. I am so lucky to have them back all togeather. And all my grand kids will be here.

It was such a long week am so glad it is over. Seem like at work the first part of the week was so busy then by the middle of the week it started to slow down. Friday was nothing but trying to fix a lot of problems with getting cars pickup. Fridays are not good days to have problems since it is a short day for us. Well little Miss Layla should start daycare Monday wonder how that is going to work. Shreai will be working and going to school. Sure wish the wind would slow down so that I can ride. There is so much going this summer and am excited about it all. Jonathan coming home for a while and La Sha moving back home. Well looks like it is going to be a boring afternoon here. I hope you all have a great weekend.

Later

Here I am

Back from the reunion. Me and Shreai decide that we were not going to any more reunion unless they are here in Texas. Driving with little kids is just to much. But all in all we had a good time. Once we really got started it was ok. Starting out driving was not to much fun it was like a night mare. We are going to have to train Jayden to leave his set belt on. Layla was good she didn't cry not once while we were on the road thats a good thing. I sure was gald when we got there and got out of the car. Coming home was better then going. It was nice seeing some of the Thomas's that I have not seen in a while. Its amazing how family just spreads out every where all over the United State and you loose track of them. Even close family they seem to just go there own ways when they grow up and don't keep in touch. Its ashame that it takes either a reunion or family crises to bring them togeather again and its only for a little while how sad it that. The kids had a good Easter hunt and Jaxson got some cool things for his birthday he sure loves his DTS game I think he played it all the way home Sunday. He is a big 5 yr old now. I did get out there and play with him no one else wanted to play hide and seek with him or tag. So Schera, Shreai and I we played with him. Just imagine an 50 yr woman out there running and hiding yes I had a buzz and was feeling good. ( Did you notice I said a 50 yr woman and not 50 yr old) ! I still would have run and play with him even if I didn't have a buzz since no other kids would play with him. He was kind of sad cause he didn't get to go swimming or fishing. He wanted to go fishing so bad. When his daddy gets back he told him that he would take him camping and fishing. Well am at work so I guess I better get off here. You all have a wonderful week and yall come back yall hear!!

Hello

Well its Thursday morning and almost time to leave to go to Toledo Ben. Its been a rough week so what new. Any way last Sunday I got news that La Sha is not coming down in May :(. But thats ok cause guess what and every one knows she is coming back to live :) how excited is that I had tears rolling out of my eyes. I am so excited about that. I can't wait for her and Peyton, and Bert to come home. I went to work so excited Monday I had to share the news with every one. Everyone is very excited about that. Well Tuesday was ok just busy at work. It was slowing down but now it is picking up. Wednesday I went and got my state ID how exciting is that. By the end of this month I will get to go get my driver liecens and please don't ask. Wednesday night went shopping at Walmart with Schera and the boys and Layla wow not sure how I handle that. Walking around not to mention my buggy keep wanting to go to the left so you put an car seat with a baby in it and you have a 5 yr. old holding on to the left side of it, does not make it easy to keep it straight. By the time we got out of there my back hurt so bad. Some of that might be cause I feel out of the shower the other day and again don't ask. Tonight I get to go shopping again with Schera and the boys to get more stuff for the weekend. Well guess I better get off here and get ready for work. Life is good and every thing happens for the good it might not seem like it sometimes but in the long haul it does. Every thing falls in place for the good. Thank God for what you got and for what is coming your way.

Love you all!!!

GOAL!!!

saturday was Jaxson's FIRST soccer game. He is Jersey # 12. It went pretty good. He made 2 goals! When the coach high-fived him he got really excited. one part of the game he got a little upset when he couldn't kick the ball. but...other than that he did very well. Him and his PIC (partner in crime) is Aiden. Jaxson did very very well for not even getting to go to his first practice! His next game is going to be on saturday.

Natty Flat TX

The world largest rocking chair! They wanted me to climb up on it to have a picture taken but I think not. The one on the top is The BBQ Smokehouse we ate at. I will post the other pictures later. This is hard and I don't like it cause it don't look right. I ask Shreai to do it for me but she never did. :(

Past Weekend!

Well as far as last weekend. I know I am behind in posting. Last weekend was good except that it rain Saturday and nasty out and cold. Sunday was a little better went for a bike ride. It was cold starting out. I didn't wear my chaps or my gloves I really thought that it would warm up fast but it didn't. I was cold riding in the morning. We left out around 9am and met some other riders off of 377 there was like 12 other bikes in the ride. We went thru Grandbury and took some roads where it was really snake like roads it was fun and head into Stephenville and went thru Morgan Mill and ended up in Natty Flat Tx. Pictures will come soon I will have to get Shreai to post them for me. Natty Flat was just a small little town we stop there and ate at a Smoke House it was some good BBQ. All the building there was nothing but cedar wood. They had a little store there that sold nothing but furniture made of tree bark ceadar wood and mesquite It was so pretty even the store in side was made of it. Natty Flay is know for having the largest rocking chair there will be a picture of the chair. It starting warming up at this time. Headed back home was not to bad until we got into Weatherford and they wanted to ride to PK. I told them I had to get home so my friend brought me home and the others headed to PK. Coming home I don't care how much that sun was shineing it was colder going east the wind was horrible it was beating me up. I really thought it was going to be warmer. My legs hurt so bad after not riding since last June. I have to get use to it again. I went home took off my boots and laid on the couch was glad to get home. Wednesday went to the doctor and every thing was really good. Got a clean bill of health. So my kids are very proud of me and I did it for them they are happy and that is all that counts. Well like I said I will have those pictures up soon. Love you all and have a wonderful rest of the week. I got to talk to Jonathan today and it was great to be able to talk to him. I am very proud of him.


Later gator!

Work What Can I Say

Well Friday the 6th they had laid off 8 people from my work. One was a manager that I use to work for. She had been there for 18 yrs. It was sad and it hit the department hard very unexcepted. I knew that there were going to be lay off when we merge with the Ft Worth Auction. This is the second around of lays up there. Then come Monday the 9th they lay off Jeri from the same department she was a supervisor. And the girls that work under them they move them down stairs and place them under accounting. They got rid of a whole department in just 3 days. Everyone at work is walking on egg shells. Some are even packing some of there stuff for just in case they are next. Its like who is going to be next on their hit list. Looks like they are starting with the big dogs the ones that make money. They know that it is hard to find a job right now so why would they do this to their employees. It not like the company is any trouble or going bankruptes. The Ft. Worth auction is the one doing bad. They just got rid of two good workers that knew what they were doing. The new bosses in accounting don't have any ideal how to do their job. They really did not think any of this merging thru before they decide to do it. If our Ford Reps. decide to take their cars some where else because the auction mess up they might as well close the doors. But every thing happens for a reason. Maybe Jeri got laid off to help her daughter out since she has cancer. I was very sad when they let Jeri go. It just wrong, just wrong.

Its Tuesday!

Well here it is Tuesday I am behind in posting. Lets see Saturday was ok I guess didn't do to much. We went and ran some errands like to Walmart. We got Layla bug a pack and play to take if we go to the family reunion she will have something to sleep in. Went home and just hung out the rest of the day and did nothing it was very windy out.

Sunday I went for a ride with a friend have not been riding since last June. It was kind of hard on me since it has been so long. We rode to Joe Pool lake and then back to Lake Arlington walk around some parks it was nice and it was so pretty out side. Got home around 3 pm. went to the pet store and got Layla some fish. Then did nothing for the rest of the day. We were going to the park but Layla was so fusses we just came home and stay home.

Monday well it was ok found out about some people that laid off. That happen Friday and I was off so I just found out about it yesterday. Its kind of sad since they really don't know what they are doing. This is their second around of lay off. They will have another lay off come next month around three is a coming. Well guess I better get off here and get ready for work. I am going to try and get in the shower before Jayden wakes up.

Have a awesome week inspite of all cold weather again and rain but we really need the rain.

Later!

Good Morning!!

Hello to everyone I finally get to post. I know everyone is excited about that. Well it was a good weekend. Haven't been doing to much of any thing. I live a non-social life. I work and come home and baby sit which I love very much. For those who knows me I love them grandkids and love watching them. You all know that my children and grandkids are my life. Yesterday all I did was go to the hospital to see Angela and AJ and the new baby. He is so cute and little its hard to belive that Layla was smaller then him. The Shreai and I came home and did nothing but just hung around the house. Later went down to Schrea house to watch a movie it was nice. Today not to much going on either. Just hanging around the house and going to try to buy a little grocey and I mean little. Then going to the movies around 3p if I don't back out. I am bad about that I really need to stop that when I say yes it sounds like a good thing but when It comes to it I back out then later I wish I didn't back out whass up with that. Any way I told Shreai not to let me back out. Then its back to work on Monday always looking forward to that. Mondays are my good days. I like Mondays not sure why but I do where as most have bad days on Monday. Since I got my internet been talking to La Sha and Peyton more. Me and La Sha was shopping on the internet togeather yesterday that was fun. Well guess I will close for now and go take a shower.

Hope all have a wonderful day and safe.

Yes I am still alive!!

Yes it is true I am still alive. It is Thursday had to come to work early this morning since Candice had to be here early. I don't get to post much since we don't have internet at the house all the time. We have had some crazy weather. I know to you people that live in Ohio or up North you think it is not crazy but to us Texas folks it is crazy. We had some icy roads. I did drive to work in it. You just have to drive slow. I am not suppose to be driving but I did drive. Work is gotten so much better since they took some of the load off me. I just didn't have time to think before now I can get my work done and I am more relax. I just need to get my taxes done now. Just still not sure what way I want to do them. This week every night has been pretty easy for me with Layla she is such a sweet heart. I watch the boys the other night and that Jaxson is such a little man he is so sweet. Now Jayden well he on the other hand he is a monster. When Jonathan gets home he will have his hands full with Jayden. But if you put Jayden on the computer he is not so much the monster. I think you Ohio people should just move to Texas where it is warm most of the time. But then you will have to put up with the Thomas family. Well guess I better get off here and get some things done. I am going to look into doing my taxes.

Love you all.

I get to finish my posting!

I didn't get to finish my last posting. So here is the rest of it. I really enjoy my trip. And La Sha and them is suppose to come down in May so I hope that they do. I really miss them. I can't wait to see them again. Since I have been back home things have not change to much. The boys are glad to see me and Shreai and Layla. Little miss Layla has been sick as of Last Sunday she started get sick. Me and Shreai was up all hours of the night last night. She was really have trouble resting with her nose full of crap and she cough so hard that she throw up her milk but I guess it ok cause she gets rid of some of that crap in her lungs and drainage. Heard from Jonathan a couple of times since he has been gone. He leave on January 11 for awhile. It was good to hear from him. Not sure when we will hear from him again. My work has been so stressful since I have been back. It is so high maintaince. It is a two man job and it wears me down but I am determine not to let it. I hope that every one had a wonderful holiday cause I know that I sure did I would have not turn it down for nothing. Even if it meant for me to spend the night in the airport we were prepare to do that just to be with La Sha and Bert and Peyton. I love you all!! Have a wonderful day and be safe and lock your doors.

Back Home!!!

Well made it back home. We had such a wonderful trip. The plane ride there was not so good special for Shreai being her first time to fly. The plane ride was not bad at all. It was very cold there the second day there was -2 and with the wind it was -27. We don't get that here but all in all I am glad that I live in Texas I would rather take the heat any time over the cold. We had a wonderful time wish I didn't have to leave La Sha and Peyton and Bert. I will have to finish this posting later. Got to go!!
