bring it on 2009....

Can you believe in 4 days it will be 2009? Of course it will take me 3 or 4 months to get used to writing that on my checks...In some ways I am ready for this year to be gone, this was after all the year that I got fired from my job after 4 1/2 years (which TRULY sucks - I don't recommend it to anyone) then was replaced by someone I used to consider a friend who apparently stabbed me in the back and twisted the knife around - but I will save all that drama for another post.....But is it just me or did this year fly by?

Then it was the year Alex became a teenager - and so far we are both surviving it (although it is early - her birthday was just earlier this month) I also apparently hit my head or sniffed too much fingernail polish because I agreed to host a party with 2 other kids for a big New Year's Eve party/Happy 13 birthday party, so now that the stress of Christmas is over I can stress about this upcoming party, complete with DJ, party hats, and horns......So my wild and crazy New Year's Eve will be spent at the EACC tech center chaperoning a bunch of hormonal 13 year olds - WOO HOO - Party on.....And as a responsible adult chaperone I won't even be able to drink (and who wouldn't need a drink after putting up with approximately 150 of said hormonal teenagers) so wish me luck my friends....I'll post more if I survive it.....

P.S. In other happy news Jackson has not yet injured himself on the dirt bike he got for Christmas, and Alex has decided she wants one.....
