Hello
Hi everyone! I know, I know. I'm hardly here anymore. I'm just too busy with life to sit down and write a blog. Here are a few quick updates on my life
1. I'm donating my hair to Locks of Love in April. In the mean time, I'm trying to round up sponsors to raise money to donate along with my hair. The money goes to a local kids charity that helps children with all sorts of medical needs, not just hair loss. So, some lucky kid is going to get my red, curly hair for a wig and some other lucky kids will benefit because of the money I'm raising. YAY!!! If you want to help, click on this link and put Donna Cole as the participant. That would be super amazing. :)
https://secure.acceptiva.com/?cst=f09ec12. I'm busy driving big sister to rehearsals at TWO places because she is in two plays. She is in one at school called "Left in the Wicker Basket, or Under the Boarding House Steps" it is a melodrama. hahaha The other one is "Wind in the Willows". That is with the local youth theatre group. She is loving both of them.
3. Little sister is playing the cello and doing a great job! It is fun to hear music in the house often.
4. Hubby is searching for a job. That is no fun, but it is the reality. So far he is still looking. He had an inteview yesterday. We will see how that all goes.
Have a happy day!

Winter and other stuff
It is winter here. Well.. the calendar says it is winter, but the weather seems to not have been notified. Bummer. I miss snow.
Big sister has a boyfriend. He is super nice.
Little sister is doing well at playing cello. It onlymakes me cringe every once in a while instead of constantly. Got to love beginning orchestra.
Hubby is working.I am trying to keep up with the mom/wife duties around here.
Having fun all the while.
Have a happy day!

Fool of the Week
So, two Sundays in a row now, I've been named Fool of the Week in the Donkey Sunday Times. This is a great honor indeed. For all this foolishness to be in my life, you would think I might have reached my quota. Apparantly not.
Today, I painted my hand pink. Not just a drip or a swipe with a paint brush. Oh no.. I spray painted my hand pink. This also included my wedding ring.
I am helping to build and paint the set for the play my kids are involved in. I'm also helping with costumes. Today, I was painting plastic grocery bags that had been cut up and tied to look like big fluffly flowers (clovers actually). I strung up a double decker clothes line and hung about 100 fluffy balls of plastic grocery bags. Then I started spray painting them all pink. As it turns out, when you spray plastic bags all fluffed up into balls that are only hanging by a clothes pin, they swing away from the paint. Well naturally the first thing that comes to my mind is to hold them still while I spray. After about 50 flowers, I realized I had also painted my hand. HA! Well.. I still had 50 flowers to go, so I just finished the flowers. What I didn't realize is that spray paint doesn't wash off like regular paint. It just stays put. I did manage to scrape the paint off my ring, but my hands were watermelon/bubble gum pink and there was nothing getting that paint off.
I am teaching elementary kids reading tomorrow. Good thing those kids will think it is funny to have a teacher with a pink hand. HA! I did manage to get a lot of it off here at home, but I am still pink handed. So, if someone catches me doing something, I have denyability because no matter how hard they try, they will not catch me red handed. I have a pink hand to prove it.
Have a happy day!

Homecoming
My oldest daughter went to homecoming last night with her good friend. They had almost all of their classes together in middle school, but due to boundaries, they are at different high schools. So, last night was his high school's homecoming and he wanted to take her. She said she had a great time and he was the perfect gentleman. It's hard to belive she is this grown up. She is taking him to her homecoming in October. That will be another fun night. :)
They are nice kids. I am glad they had fun.
Have a happy day!!
