Back home and pondering...

Just got back from a weekend with the mouse. There were some suprises at the park...like ElecTRONica...LOVED IT! Glowjitos rock and the music was great. I was dancing all around California Adventure. It's so nice to have kids old enough to go on rides without me.

Once again, though, I am suprised at my actions. Had some very interesting things go on during the weekend and normally I would have been all up in it letting them know that I am pissed but I found myself biting my tounge to save the weekend. In the end I am extremely disappointed with myself. I let some things happen that were disrepectful. Now I sit in my house pissed. The only way to let it go is to put it out there. I don't know why I keep these feelings inside. It just eats away at me and gives me stress. I don't need any stress in my life.

Overall the weekend was great and I, once again, realize that I LOVE disney. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Toy story is the best...I totally rocked the score! Best in the car....TWICE! I went on grizzly twice and splash mountain twice. I never go on the water rides and they were so much fun. Got drenched the second time..like I took a shower. It was 11:30pm and I was FREEZING. but so much fun. My two fav moments were friday night at electronica/world of color and saturday night espn zone to the end hanging with the bono group!

Time to go to disneyland!

Is it wrong how excited I am to go to disneyland tomorrow? I was sitting with the 7yo I'm going with the other day and the excitement on his face was making me burst with excitement. He wants to ride everything, see everything. His eagerness to get there and go is contagious. I love going to my favorite place with people who haven't been or in he and his brothers case, have been but weren't old enough to remember. He told me that two summers ago he went to San Diego and his favorite part was Medival Times, which made me laugh since it's really in buena park..close to disneyland! He wants to leave disney and go to dinner there..telling me I'll really like it, but I said next time.

I am still contemplating the season pass. It would not save if we only go down pre cruise. I'm not sure if I want to go down in the summer too. I guess I'll make up my mind when we get there.

I'll post pics later...

Making Plans and hanging out

Is it wrong to be a planner? There are worse things I can think of to have as a bad habit. Why is it that I can't handle not knowing the intimate details of an event coming up but I am fine with last minute invitations. There is no middle ground. On that note I have made my ressies for our pre cruise disney trip to Disneyland. I am currently in a dilemma of whether I should get season passes for DL or just continue to buy tix to the park. We are going down this month and again in April but will we be going again? Not sure so I hesitate. I have time to think so I'll just sit on it for a bit. I have also checked on my points needed for our planned Hawaii trip next thanksgiving. So far away but since everything is being done with miles/points I need to know now. Planning IS a good thing.

I would love to add another trip in the mix but I think that is being greedy. I think I'll just save up for tay to go to camp again next summer. I'm hoping next summer I can spend some more time at the beach with her in cali. Another fun trip to central coast would be worth it. I hate that I wasn't able to get away this past summer. Hopefully next summer this eating right exercising thing will produce results to help me feel more comfy!

On that note...the gym is going great. I really enjoy and quite frankly feel a need to go to the gym. Every opportunity to get there during the week I take and if I can't get there I go on the weekend. I love taking the classes. It's like dance class but harder. I love dancing and miss it so much. Not necessarily going to the clubs anymore, but wouldn't it be great if we could just dance all the time. I think people would be much happier if they could just dance it out.

However all of this gym time is severely cutting into my tv watching. I would like to say that's a good thing because I'm not a couch potato but I'm still recording in the hopes that I will sit on my ass and do nothing and watch it all so not quite a changed woman yet.

Volleyball at school is almost over. All of our games were cancelled this week which is a bummer since it's our last week. The only thing we have to do is the parent/student challenge and our end of season party. My team was 1-2 and tays team was 1-2 and 8th grade was 0-3 so overall kinda sucky. Tays soccer is winding down too. It's been a tough season this year. Quite different from last year. She is starting to shine but it's late in the season. She played a great game last week. On FIRE! She is having a great time in 7th grade but still struggling to handle all of her responsibilities. It's a work in progress for sure.

We have some fun stuff coming up this month and next. I look forward to the adventures. Planned or not..but preferably planned :)

Is there anything Jersey can't do??

Is it wrong how much I love all the reality Jersey shows? From Housewives to drunkens sluts and hairdressers. This is pretty much all of the TV I have paid attention too this summer and early fall. I have a dvr that is FULL! I need to clear out my regular tv but I have no time to watch. Having no time is good. I am really sticking to my work out regime in between tays sports. It's all good. I have been using that money I spend every month on the gym.

School is chugging along. I have almost finished my volleyball coaching responsibilities. We lost our first 2 matchs but won our final match. It was very exciting. Every year I learn a little more about what to teach/show and how to coach. I really like getting to know the new 6th graders. They are so cute and sweet.

Taylor's team is 1-2 also. They have one more game and they should win. We shall see! Her soccer team is faltering and it's pissing me off. It's hard to go from 2nd place to the bottom. I'm hoping tomorrows game will be awesome, we shall see. She really enjoys soccer so i'm keeping my fingers crossed that her team will pick it up.

Club Volleyball is starting soon. Clinics start now and tryouts are in a month. Tay is ready for try outs but she is not really into the clinics. We are going anyways. She needs the extra help for try outs.

So there's the update from our house. Everything else is pretty boring. Peace!
