Scrooge !
My kids high school was having a holiday door decorating contest. It started this week and the judging was to take place next Monday. One of Oldest Son M teachers asked him to design her classroom door. This stressed him out but he took the challenge anyway.
He's been working on it all week and then he came home yesterday and told me they had to take it all down. Why? because their "officer friendly" told the fire Marshall about what the school was doing and it breaks the fire code laws. I guess by covering the doors with paper and battery operated lights ( in some cases) it becomes a fire hazard.
I get it , I even understand it,...... but it's frustrating ! Why can't they let these kids have a little fun? I almost bet that if it was for the football team they would have stayed up, because we all know that the football players are the "golden children" of the school and get whatever they f-ing want.
So to you Mr Scrooge Officer I say......... BAH HUMBUG!

Daughter A's , Grandma K called here last Saturday. Daughter A had spent the night at the friends house Friday night and wasn't home yet, so I gave her g-ma her cell number figuring it would be easier that way. A little while later Daughter A texts me I'm going to go do something with g-ma on Sunday is that alright. I of course told her that's fine.
Sunday morning we were having breakfast and I asked her when she was getting picked up. She told me that she was to call g-ma when she was ready. A couple hours later Daughter A comes to find me to let me know that her g-ma was here and that she didn't come to the door she just called her - insert my eye roll here.
A few hours later she sends me a text I'm bringing a whole bunch of stuff home with me just so you know. I figured g-ma took her shopping or something since she missed 2 birthdays and a Christmas.
Oh no that would of been way to easy ! G-ma took her to see great grandma and her Dad. Guess what they did????? Over the last 2 years they boxed up all of her stuff she had there , stuff they bought for her, and the sent it all here ! All of her dolls, barbies, stuffed animals, little kids movies, you name it they sent it home with her. Her room is packed full of boxes she can't even get to her closet. She's been going through it taking out stuff she wants to keep, but most of it she has out grown.
So anyway she saw her Dad, which she wasn't all that thrilled about doing. She said he was nice and all and she was nice..... but she's still pissed off at him for how he treated her all this time.
Her new hair didn't go over all that well either, which I knew it wouldn't . The last time they saw here she had hair almost to the middle of her back and it was her natural hair color , which is a sandy blonde. Now it's short and she had it colored a reddish brown with while blonde highlights. It's cute and so much her. Her dads long time girl friend said to her I can't believe your mom let you cut your hair short and color it. Hello people it's hair, it will gown back if she want's it to !
they said they will keep in contact with her better, but honestly I'm not hold my breath over it.
Oh well ...........

20 Years Ago
>> Monday, November 9, 2009
20 Years ago today East & West started to become one.
20 Years ago today the Cold War came to and end.
20 Years ago today the Berlin Wall fell.
During one of the many trips Barry took to Germany last year for work, he was able to take a day trip to Berlin to see what's left of the wall. Below are just a couple pictures he took.
Check Point Charlie- This is a replica of it, but it's in the same place the original one was and you can go there to get your passport stamped.
