no so stressed anymore

so as you may have read on my last blog, that i was a freaking out about my boys party. omg! that was stressful. but you know what? it worked out just fine. we ended up having it at home. that was one hectic weekend. i ended up back at the party store. when we were having it at the park we didn't need decorations. i had bought balloons, a pinata and a bunch of games to play. well needless to say, when the storm hit, we were stuck not being able to use the games i bought. we had great day though. the food rocked. everyone came. just short an uncle and two others. my brother and his girlfriend got sick, so they didn't come. but i loved that my nephews were still there. they came with their mom. we never did use those games. we passed the time using the face paint( so fun!!) and we propt the pinata up and pretty much just let them at it. we loaded them with so much candy. i handed out Easter baskets. it was great. not a lot of gifts , but man he scored. he got the scooter he wanted. from his best friend. he got a psp! and the bike we got him. and some pretty nice clothes. so all in all, it turned out great. we got to see family we had not seen in a very long time. people meet. i cant believe after all that stress, and being pretty pissed about the storm, we actually pulled it off. although that day was the ONLY day it rained. but what ya gonna do right?! next year we are leaving town, and having a very quiet little 6Th birthday. that is the one thing about good parties, how do you top it next year?! well iam pretty excited about what i just learned. a local book store host a monthly writers group. i actually get to be around grown ups and write, and get feed back. i am so excited. the fee I am about 100$ but that's for a year. and you cant really put a price on all the connections i will make. plus i hear there is some editors and publishers in some of those groups. my boy has been on spring break. it has been a combo of stress and fun. i thought i was going to go nuts. but, i found a bunch of stuff to do. farmers markets. petting zoo, pony rides, play dates, story time, library. we have had fun. i am actually having fun too. he goes back tomorrow. i think he needs it more then me. he is getting a little short with me. i think he is the one going crazy with out school. go figure. he still has fits when i drop him off. but by the time i am leaving he is already playing. we are starting to get ready for kindergarten. which is hard on me. he is growing up. plus the school is a bit strict. he goes to school now at 12:30. he will be going all day staring at 8. i don't think that will go over well. i thought kindergartners got out early. i fell that's a long time for a five year old. 8 to 2:30. don't you think? and all the paper work i have to do. all the doctors he has to have check ups with its crazy. last week we went and he got like four shots for school. (FYI, that was not a fun day) okay. well i got to do some research while i have a computers.
