Home sweet home

I have had so much fun this past week. Rarely ever do I go home and want to stay. My intentions were to leave on Wednesday, no later than Thursday. I just got here and it's Monday, 11 p.m. Last night, I decided to leave at 8 am. I left at 3pm. Then there was an accident on 10. I sat still for 30 minutes straight. Then when I finally did start moving, it was at a snail's pace. It took me 30 minutes to get 3.6 miles. So, that together is the reason it's 11 o'clock.

My folx had a block party on the 4th and it was wonderful. I started uploading the pics on facebook, but I got booted from the net. I will probably finish later. Anyway, LJ came to spenf the 4th with me and my folx. She looked so cute! It was good sitting and talking with her. Everybody stayed outside talking, playing cards, and dancing until about 10. Somebody bought some fireworks and put on a show for the little children. They were just smiling. Amaya made me stand with her because teh noise scared her. She thought they were pretty, but wasn't too fond of all that noise. At about 10,11, Rita, Netta, and I went to Krebs. Aww man, it was so many people out there. As usual I ran into people I hadn't seen in a while. We saw OJ. He ended up coming over to the house. That boy is so cute! Anyway, I stayed with Netta the entire time I was at home.
Oh yeah, Friday night, about nine of us went bowling. That was the best. I hadn't been bowling with a group in a long time. I went bowling on my birthday, but it wasn't a lot of people. We were playing boys against girls and we lost. The first time, we lost by about 20. The second time we lost by like 100. Either way, it was fun. We had a blast.
I spent all day Friday with Rita getting prepared for her baby's party. I bought her some cute little outfits from Children's Place. I tried to buy her a cake, but she wouldn't let me. I got my sister's baby something, too. I called my brother and his girlfriend to see what size my other neice wears, but neither answered the phone. Now that I think about it, they still haven't called me back! Anyway, Rita and I had a good time. I don't think I've spent an entire day with her since high school either. I love that girl so much. I didn't realize how much I missed her.

My sisters and I planned to take the children to Disney World at the end of the month, but we had a slight change of plans. My sister in Va. requested off for my father's birthday and is supposed to make a trip to MS. So maybe, we can go then. Or maybe, we need to shoot for Thanksgiving. I'll run that by them tomorrow. We need to do somehing. We haven't taken a family vacation since 2000. (I'd just graduated high school!)

Anyway, I just had to post about the wonderful time I had at home.
