yes gas is about 3.89-3.99---scary to say the least. Remember when they said it would be $4 by summer.....wow summer got here fast! I splurged and got a $1 cheesburger today. The McDonalds near school places tons of onions on them! I adore onions! Tonight the kids ate with dad so I had soup and toast. Kept the lights off and hung my washed uniform on the clothesline. It is very chily here and will be all week. That stinks a bit.

Got some tp at work and also a brand new canning jar. A nice magazine and some note/letter paper. I also got some tissue paper and lots of newspapers to read.

I stopped by the local catering place and talked to the manager and gave her my two kids applications for summer jobs. I used to do HUGE fundraisers for our school every year at this place and got to know the owners really well. They loved working with us and were always so willing to make things go so well when we had our dinners there. They def liked my son and were excited he was flexible and willing to work. He has a full time day job---but wanted some nights to get more money....so this is perfect. He will be busing tables. My daughter will also get hired I think. They liked that they were brother and sister and were eager to perhaps give them the same hours to save on gas costs. That was sure thoughtful.
I am so glad....hopefully they get hired.
My ex has bugged me for weeks to help get them jobs...esp my dd who had nothing. He sure likes to order everyone around....yet not really help in any way. I can't help but wonder if the new wife gets ordered around as well. My guess is yes. He did not lift one finger to help. If they land these jobs it is only because I networked and got them in the door. He was no help. Please cross your fingers!

Speaking of bossing around....my ex for Mothers Day would invite his whole family over so I could cook up a dinner. I am so glad to be done with that. I heard that he made his new wife do a dinner for his whole family as well. Part of me felt sorry for her as this was her first mothers day......it just sounded like alot of work. Funny.....tigers never change their stripes I guess. What a drag. I never ever liked entertaining all those people esp on Mothers DAY! I never once went out to eat on MD or was treated nicely it seems. Kinda sad...but yet freeing.

I am really looking forward to sleeping on Friday.....going to bed early.......I hope I make it to the end of the week. Right now I am really dragging my behind.
Too much stuff and it is only going to get nuttier till after school is done with on June 6th and the recital is done with ----the following week. Just thinking about it makes me mroe tired!!!! YIKES!
