Can I please get some warning!!!!!

OK. This last week has been frustrating for me as a driver. I have had three instances where I felt like the Illinois road construction crew had been contracted by Wisconsin. Last Friday night I was on my way home when the ramp to get off was closed. Oh by the way I was warned about 300 feet from where the ramp is. No problem I'll go to the next ramp, or the next ramp, or maybe I will go all the way to the lakefront before I can turn around. NICE, REAL NICE. Then on Sunday we were going to church and were at least 1/2 hour ahead of schedule so we could finally get Mel in to the nursery, because I think the lady in the nursery thinks we are not going to put here in there, when we come to our exit from the freeway and, BOYAH, the ramp is closed. WOW!!!!!!! This is great. So now where are we going. I am being sent on a detour I have no idea where its going. Well we got to church 30 minutes late. Great!!!!! Can a brother get any love. Scenario three. Monday going home from work, taking the back roads home like normal, and in the middle of this street it says road closed. I quit. There has got to be a way for people to communicate to drivers that roads, ramps and construction is going on before they drive right into it. COMMUNICATION PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!

A river runs through it.

We have had rain all week. I have been trying to keep the basement clear of water just flowing in from who knows where. It has benn raining all night and will through the night as well. So far no water. I am praying it stays that way.

School update.

Sorry I have not updated lately. I mean with school, having a baby, moving, and work it seems I have had little time for anything else. My first two classes went well. I got an A in GEN 105 which I scored 997/1000 points, and an A- in my COM 140 class. I am just starting my second block. Hopefully I will continue my good grades.

100 calorie snacks.

Are you serious? What have we become? What is the deal with these 100 calorie snack packs. I mean is this really something that the American people are buying into? This is a joke. What they are trying to sell you is a joke. Oreo crisps. Brownie bites. Other crazy things. first of all let me just say that those are not the real thing. Not even by a long shot. why would I want to eat them. not only that they cost more than the real thing. I opened a pack of the brownies. five little bites that equaled 1/3 that of a regular brownie. On top of that it was all air. ALL AIR!!!!!! No sustenance. Now if you are trying to "diet" and "cut back " please run 30 extra miles so you can have the real stuff. This fake excuse for a diet plan does not make me want to get in shape that way. I say have the real oreos or brownies. Forget the air filled packs of not so tasty morsels that cost you a fortune. Stick to the real stuff. Like mom use to make.

March Madness!!!!!!!!

I know it is that time of year where college basketball takes center stage, but I am refering to the fact that the second day of spring is here and we are being dumped on with 8-12 inches of the white stuff. ARE YOU SERIOUS??????????????????
