Losers of the world

And my brother is one of them. How much more can go on?? What a lowlife SCUM!! My nerves are so shot, i am physically and mentally drained. As he goes on and slides by life with no reprecutions??? The one who wouldn't get anything...well with no will that doesn't stand up at all. He has caused so much MISERY!! To the whole family..living and dead. Horrible person! I have to get my will together. God Forbid something happened to Scott and I, he would run right to the house to rob my kids!! He has no conciense..no pride..no soul. How many times should we visit rehab??? Let's cut out copper and scrap it for CRACK!!! and wonder how the house is not selling???? My mom should have listened to me and sold the house while she was still alive to help out w/ her money problems. But no, she hung on ..for US. And he is still at it! She is rolling around in her ashes! I'm sorry mom. When will this nightmare end???? Why should I be worried...not relaxed in my own home?????

WOW, cousins!!

Victoria and Ashlee...you would never know Victoria is 1 month YOUNGER than Ash LOL

So wow, my kids finally seen their cousins! Frankie finally brought them over to play today. They have gotten so big. My brother supposedly is staying clean. Don't know how much I believe. Who knows. He would be a dumb ass to NOT be serious about it finally. Everyone had fun together.

9-11

I think this is the first September 11th that it isn't clear blue skies. I remember the smell in the air. Either way the radio,and television reminds you of the day. The violins playing in the background as the long list of all the poor souls killed that day. So sad. I pray for all the families that lost their loved ones. I pray for the ones who lost their lives.

Funny

The kids found this hat at my mom's when Scott went there last week to put oil in the tank. It was my mom or dad's hat. They both had hats like this when we were younger. Hip dressers lol. Ashlee has a barret type hat. So Scotty found it and took to it.

Weekend

It was a busy weekend. Friday was the last tournament of the season, yay! It will be a bit easier when Scotty is a little older and can keep up with the older kids. Ashlee and Richie had fun. Saturday we went to our friends Laurie and Anthony's which we haven't done in a pretty long time. They did even more work on their house..alot more. Their house is like a house that could be on cribs lol! Seriously gorgeous and big! Another late night, then yesterday it was the Fire Dept BBQ. Lots of food and fun for the kids. Scotty was so overtired he didn't know what to do with himself last night! Ashlee had cheer today from 4:30-7:15. She is going to crash tonight. Good thing there is nothing tomorrow after school.

Ashlee at it again

1st Day has Come and Gone

This morning went pretty smooth, Ashlee and Richie got showered/dressed/fed all with time to spare. Got Scotty up and we all headed out without a hitch! First went to drop off Ash at school and walked to her class. It's different this year since she is on the other side of the school now, different cafeteria, gym, office. She was very excited and came home still excited. Richie had a good day, he knows all the teachers from last year so really it was just getting used to it again. Different teacher but he knows them anyway. After Dropping him off I headed to Target, Hallmark, Kohl's then Supermarket. Came home did some laundry and vacummed. Went picked up Ashlee came back home, Then 1/2 hour later was time to get Richie. Came back, got dinner going..Ashlee got ready for cheer and we were off again. Just came home and Ash had a pudding, cleaned up and into bed by 8:45. Scotty seems to be asleep already too. Richie is at Race Practice w/ Scott. They better not be loud!! I am tired..

Tomorrow is the 1st Day of School!!

Ok, well tomorrow is the first day of 2nd grade for Ashlee and 1st day of pre K for Richie ( his 2nd year) Richie will go mon/wed/fri. Ashlee has been very excited for quite a while for 2nd grade. She said she is the most excited she has been to start 2nd grade than any other 1st day lol. She and Richie were horsing around last week and Richie bunked his head right onto Ashlee's eye/cheek area. As soon as that happened it was already purple. I thought great, lovely a nice black eye to start school with. It is at the brown part of the bruise and slight touch of purple left. She also lost her 2 top teeth and so she looks like a hockey player with no teeth and a black eye!!! Perfect timing huh? After I drop the kids off at school, I may come back and vacuum the house? or go to Target? maybe Kohl's? lol I had a preview on Monday when I left Ash and Richie home w/ Scott and went shopping for 4 hours. It was alot easier just taking Scotty. So I look foward to that!!!!
