Killing Time

I had something all set up to post and now I can't remember what it was lol. Nothing exciting here. Getting ready for thanksgiving here @ the house. We're supposed to have close to 20 people here. Should be interesting. Yesterday the Lions lost (again) but @ least Joey Harrington was starting. Yesterday some kids came to the door and offered to rake the front lawn for $10! I didn't think kids did that anymore! So i accepted. Good kids too. Really cute and absolutely adorable. They went around back and saw we had a pool and the youngest one (about 8 i think) was so excited about it "oh my gosh! they have a huge pool!" It was cute. Makes me realize I'm prolly gonna have our neighbors kids salivating to be in the pool next summer (you know. once we get it fixed) which i won't mind at all as long as I"m out there with them.

Saw Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire @ the midnight show Friday morning. It was fantastic! I totally want to re-read the book again. I got a Borders gift cert from Ricky and Annette for my bday I'm gonna have to go and use ...maybe i can get a couple paperbacks of HP.

Saturday my mom was supposed to take me to work and she completely forgot about me. She was supposed to be here @ 8pm when she wasn't outside I called her...for 45 minutes! No answer nothing. I ws freaking out. I was crying. She went out and forgot about me. So when she finally called and told me what happened (@ which time i was already supposed to be @ work) so i called my boss Paul and left him a message and waited for my mom to get to the house. Velisia called in the meantime so she calmed me down a little. Just when i think she's gonna be here, i call Paul and say don't worry i'm on my way....well he calls O'Tee's and calls me back and my mom is setting up the equipment there....WITHOUT ME!!! I freak out. This time i have a serious panic attack and i can't breathe. So I call her and she tells me Todd is on his way to pick me up. He gets there shortly after that as I'm talking her thru the wires...Paul gets there as she's about halfway thru...I get there around 10PM (10:15 bar) and take over. I was so upset with her and she acted like it was nothing. I mean i know she's doing me a favor and i appreciate it, but if she couldn't do it, tell me and I could have made arrangements. *grrrrrrrrrr*

So now I'm getting ready to go to the dentist to remove my suture. I just got a call from my sister and an IM from my mom that my cousin Adam was in a horrible car accident. He's fine, but the car is totalled. Smashed like a pancake. Apparently he fell asleep at the wheel and went off the road and flipped over and over smashing the car. The truck finally hit a tree and it was flipping which finally stopped the car and it landed on the roof. He was pinned in but someone somehow came along and pulled him out cuz the car was on fire or something. Somehow Adam's seat reclined all the way back while it was flipping. If it hadn't he would be dead. He came out of the accident with only scrapes and bruises thank god and he's alright. BUT ... htey aren't coming up for thanksgiving now. so now it looks like 16 people.

*hugs* time to go.
