There is a new link on the side. I have been working on getting pictures uploaded and have managed to get some of them up there. I have a lot of pictures and went through just some of them to get up on the net. Chelle, if you would like to share some of your pics I would be more than happy to put them on there for you :o) I hope that it works and it works the way that I want it to. I am pretty new at all this and have NO idea if I did it right or not :o) Live and learn I guess!!
The Cubs lost to the Marlins... it was horrible!! They were winning 3-0 up then BOOM. Prior pitches for 8 innings and then he goes down hill. they bring in one of the other pitchers and all of a sudden the game is 3-8 in the Marlins favor... they got EIGHT runs in ONE inning. It was horrible and I am very dissapointed!! So they go to game 7 tonite... hopefully the Cubs can pull out of it and WIN!!! I would really like them to go to the World series!! The Sox lost to the Yankees which is also a bog upset. I would love for a Sox~Cubs World Series!!!! If neither one of them make it, I have 0 intrest in the World Series!
China has put their first astronaut into space. I think that is great. I hope that their space program works out for them. Our space program is awesome and I think that we are making a lot of progress with space. I have lots of friends that work at NASA (hubby used to) and they all love their jobs. I have friends that work the International Space Station, Launches and Landings, know a few astronauts in training and think that it is awesome how they are like a great big huge family :o) I am not sure about FL but I know that the Clear Lake area, Texas, (where we used to live) was a tight knit community. If you were not a part of the space program you knew at least a couple of people that were. It was a really neat area.
In local news... there are several schools that have the kids on strike ( another reason to thank God that I homeschool!!) I guess the custodians and others have gone on a sickout and the kids had no water, electricity, bathrooms or food. The kids were given crackers and candy bars for lunch. I am sorry but that is RIDICULOUS! How do you expect these kids to learn without the proper lunches, bathrooms, electricy etc???? I have to agree with the kids going on strike! The St.Louis school system sucks. They have got to do something to fix this issue. I cannot believe that all this is going on. I went to school outside of St.Louis (suburb south of St.Louis) and we never had issues like these and the school district that I was in still do not have these issues. I have to say that I really am very happy that I homeschool my kids and if that were not an option then they would be in the same school district that I was in and if I could afford it I would send them to private school :o) But thank goodness they are not in the St.Louis school district.
Here is the concealed weapons fact sheet for MO. Now, if they would just pass the stinkin law!!! :o)
My mom will be performing again this year in the annual ethnic festival at queeny park. I think that it is really neat that my mom has learned the traditional dances of Korea, the fan dance is my fav., and it is neat to see some of the other dances from other countries. Plus trying out the different foods are awesome! I LOVE to try new and different foods :o) Wow, I had a lot more to say than I thought I would :o)
