these are some pics we took in the jeep while waiting for the bus the other day. we were just being silly. it's way to cold to stand outside and wait. not to mention, on this particular day, the bus never showed up!! this has been the worst year for the bus. i called the transportation dept. and they told me that the bus was going to be 1 and 1/2 hours late!! WHAT!! of course i just drove them to school, but what about the poor kids at the other stops who are just standing there * waiting *. kids have no concept of time. they'll just stay there and wait...and freeze. this makes no sense to me.

so, on a * completely * different subject. i seriously am in need of a new * do* !! i'm sooo sick of the current hair situation. i want something * cute funky hip * but still want it to look cute when i don't have lots of time to invest. of course i've been scouring the web for ideas. i think this is super cute! any help would be truly appreciated.

*Happy New Year*

*wow* where has the time gone?! i can't believe it's 2008!! i don't make new year's *resolutions*, but i do always try to make some life changes. here i go...

*spend more time w/my kids
*be more active ( new WW goal of 10 more lbs. by spring)
*be more *fit*
*be more patient
*be more thankful
*be kinder to myself and my family
*be a better mom, wife & friend

i want to be held accountable!! so whoever * catches * me not applying these principles LET ME HAVE IT!!

school starts thursday. YaY!!! i'm ready for the kids to go back and i think they are too.

i'm going to look for a new job. maybe i'll look into going back to school. i think i want to do something in the fitness field. maybe i can get * paid * to tone up. :)

i'm going to challenge myself to take 365 pictures of me and the famalia!! one a day of each of us. just random, not posed or planned out. it will be interesting to see how we've all changed by the end of the year. *of course* i'm going to scrapbook all of this. i'll post pics online too.
