Saturday Morning

It's Saturday Morning... Kids are on the couch next to me, talking about Spongebob.. I won't let them turn the TV on, as I really don't feel like listening to mind-numbing cartoons.. Life is not going great, but it could be worse right now..

I finally got to finish reading "The Lady in the Tower" by Alison Weir. Wow.. I honestly had a hard time reading it, as it focuses on her fall. I know that she was wrongly executed, and that makes me sad... I hope she found Elizabeth and they are having a shopping spree at the Chanel Boutique.. :)

Also read "The Euminides" by Aeschylus. (For my History of Ancient Greece class). Gotta say, it was a good drama. Now I have to write a paper on why this play shows how great a poleis Athens was. This should be fun.. School is almost over, but then I go right back in two weeks. but I'm taking online classes for the summer, just because I would rather do things at my own speed. I'm two classes away from getting my desktop publishing cert, but I can't finish it until the fall.. UGH

Now it's time to go into mom mode.. And can someone please bring me a martini??? I really need one..

O Death, rock me asleep: Anne Boleyn, 19th May 1536

RIP Queen Anne Boleyn.. May you give Henry VIII hell for what happened to you.

No subject in particular

I hope I didn't totally bomb my history test. My kids were driving me crazy, and I could barely study. By the time I could study, I was freakin exhausted. I'm still exhausted....

Fun Stuff

Photography is a hobby of mine... I don't have a fancy camera, (although if you are willing to donate one, feel free to let me know) :) Here are some shots of my garden, which amazingly grows on my patios of my apartment.

I'm taking advanced photoshop in college, so I will post my completed assignments here, as well as my FB page. I'm also growing tomatoes and jalapenos. I would rather grow my own than pay that exorbant amount at the grocery store...

My fiancee helps with the gardening. Just because I live in an apartment doesn't mean that I have to make it look drab. I don't have much, but it's a start.. and it makes me happy. My orange tree is blooming, and I can't wait to sit outside and smell the orange blossoms. It's my happy smell, and everytime I smell it, I relax. When my hyacinths were in bloom, along with the jasmine, OMG.. It was heavenly. My best friend came over, and we stayed outside just because it smelled so awesome.

Can't wait for the oranges!!

Intro

I am who I am. You can take it or leave it.

That's what I tell people about me. Marilyn Monroe once said:

That could not be a more true statement. I'm not perfect, and the harder I try, the more my therapist told me to stop. And that's not easy. We are supposed to be supermom's, able to handle anything and everything that comes our way. Having a child with autism was not something I could just handle right off the bat. He's awesome. Some have given up on him, but I won't. And I never will.

I have an obssession with Tudor History. And no, this was not because of the show. (Which is awesome by the way). I am slowly building a library, but that has been put on hold, as my apartment only has so much room. I find it interesting.

So be warned, I will write about anything and everything.. :)
