I MUST ask-why is it, that when two apposing standards colide--the LOWER standard prevails??? I ask because the 'roommates' and I have different standards when it comes to cleanliness. Mine is SLIGHTLY higher than either of theirs. So we live with MY standard and everyone is happy, right? [maybe in the movies!!!] I find that as time goes on my standard is getting lower and LOWER! I NEVER thought I'd see the day when the kitchen didn't get mopped in a 'month of sundays, or my 'watercloset' had a RING! I can't decide why it is that Bryon and Boo get it THEIR way. Does anyone out there have the answer, this is driving me NUTS! I try and I try but my motivation is no-where to be found. It's like, 'why bother? it'll be dirty again in MINUTES.' I just want ya'll to know that when you leave my house and have to scrape the 'gunk' off the bottom of your shoes, 'IT ISN'T MY FAULT!
That having been said: I want each of you to know that I didn't 'do' Easter this year. No, you were NOT singled out to be ignored, I simply didn't do ANYTHING this time around. The girls and I are coloring eggs tonight but that's it. It's been years and YEARS since I didn't 'do' even one basket. It felt kinda weird, in a nice sorta way. Anywho, hope you all have a wonderful Easter and know I love you whether you got a card or not. [I'm guessing not!] Hugs to all!

Hey Mom!
Thanks for all the fun Easter memories. I even have a picture of me with "my" 13-foot satellite dish thanks to you and Dad.
... The kids got a little more than a modest Easter this year thanks to their Aunt Mekelle. I assume they were happy with their haul. There was a good amount of arguing over candy. ; )
Rachel might post a pic or two on the blog.
I was reminiscent today about my 16th birthday and Christmas. I remember how you and Dad went out of your way to get me a stereo VCR for my birthday. In those days, such a machine ran about $230. Then, I got Final Fantasy III for Christmas and it had just released in October. And those games aren't cheap either.
And if I remember correctly, I was a brat that year. I could not have got my fast food job soon enough.
Anyway, what was I saying?, oh yeah, thanks!
Love you.
I have to say I love brandon's comments they totally crack me up...
