Aidan didn't go running with the competition team this morning. He and one other little guy were there and ready to go but...the other little guy has a broken arm and is out of commission. One of the young ladies of the group doesn't like to run and they were worried that with MY guy being so small, they'd lose him, so they sent him inside with the other little guy to work with the young lady on their form. They have a competition next weekend, so that's a good thing.
I took Amanda to have a facial this morning as a birthday present. This was her first facial. She enjoyed it immensely. She was asking to do it again. hee hee. I've corrupted the silly girl. We went to Target after the facial and spent some time walking around together. I was very glad to be out with her. Some days she and I are at each other's throats, but today was different. She was relaxed and calm. It was worth it to me. I'd love to do it again some time.
I had a nice long talk with Mr. M this morning. We're closing the doors to our school and are taking up temporary residence in a different location while he searches for a way to make things work out. It's a little questionable as to whether or not we're going to keep things going on past this summer. I haven't told DB yet. He's going to find out by surprise if he reads the blog!! I've been trying to text him and call him but he's doing stuff with his family (they've got a couple of soccer players in the family). I'm going to wait and see what he says a little bit later.

A car saga
I spent the day "All stressed out and no one to choke" today. I got to work and tried to turn the car off and remove the key from the ignition. It would not budge. Not a all. I couldn't even turn the car off. I finally gave up and popped the clutch, which of course, stops the engine. It's certainly NOT good for the transmission, I'm sure.
My director showed up at one point and I asked him if he knew anything about cars. He looked at the car, climbed in and proceeded to do exactly everything I'd done (minus raising and lowering the steering wheel). It still wouldn't stop or anything. We wound up locking the car and going back inside. Everyone who came in after me came up to me and warned me that my lights were on. (the Saturn Ion has the lights on automatically when you're running it that way. I choose to run it in "auto" because I don't have to fuss with "did I remember to turn off the lights?")
So, after all was said and done, one of the guys managed to get into the trunk of the car and pulled one of the battery cables off the car. The battery's in the trunk on the Saturn as an engineering design. I found that out the hard way. We couldn't get into the car after he pulled the cable off. That took all the power off. We wound up running out to the apartment and getting the spare keys, then running back to work. I spent another 2 hours at work, fuming and wondering if I was going to get my car worked on and adamantly telling anyone who would listen to me that I was NOT going to pay for the repair on my car as it's *just* past warranty. I was a month out and felt that it was most unfair for me to have to pay $350-700.00 (quoted by the dealership) for repairs.
By the time I got to the dealership and talked to them, they referred me off to Saturn Customer Assistance who put me through a modified form of 20 Questions. They then told me that they'd call me tomorrow (NO!!!!!) and tell me IF I'd get assistance. I grudgingly agreed. They had me over a barrel!
Sooo...I got back to work and fumed and mumbled and took calls. About an hour and a half after we dropped the car off, they called me up and told me that they were going to cover the repairs as a courtesy to me. HOORAY FOR SATURN!!
I am most pleased, to say the very least!! I didn't pay for the replacement of the steering column housing, cylinder or the actuator inside which was broken. It could have set me back quite a bit, so I'm not going to complain about it at all.
I got home late because I had to go to the dealership and pick up my car. I haven't been to the dojang at all tonight. I was considering going to a class today but that was sidelined by the car. I'm not going tomorrow because we're closed on Friday. Saturday is Competition Team for the little guy (they're running 3 miles! He's not going to make that, I'm sure, but he could surprise me!). I was invited to run with them and I laughed at the instructor. Yeah...getting ME to run anywhere is a major miracle. I ran inside the training room last night because I was told to, but that's a huge difference from running 3 miles outside. We shall see what happens!

Back from Corpus Christi...
HI there!! We are back!!! Back online as well! Tony says the Internet went down on Friday afternoon. It wasn't online when I got home yesterday. We didn't get it online until this afternoon! :( Boo hiss! This is what happens when you think it's going to be better to upgrade your DSL...unfortunately, the lovely sales rep didn't bother to tell me that they were going to disable my internet. I was in total "freak out mode" last night. Oh well...I was too tired to do much last night anyway! Aidan and I were up at 6:45 yesterday and on the road for 8+ hours.
Speaking of being on the road, let's see...we had a blast in Corpus Christi! It was a lot of fun. We met at the school at 6:00 am on Friday, left by 6:30 and were in the Waco area by 8:00 for the first of several stops. We herded all our boys out the door and to the rest rooms. It took us about 25 minutes to get all the boys through the line and back into the cars. From there, we took off and headed South, towards Austin. We got to Austin by eleven o'clock and let me tell you this...I DESPISE Austin traffic!! We were in stop and go traffic for 30-40 minutes or so. ICK!! We stopped in Austin for gas and spent $42.00 for a half a tank!! It was $42.00 on the way back as well, then another $24.00 to top off.
We stopped at a Chik Fil A for lunch at some place just off of 35, near Bergstrom AFB. We saw a few military people who came over for lunch. Our guys weren't really all that interested in the military guys at that point. We finished our lunches and then jumped out to our cars and left again. From there, it was a hop, skip and a jump (not literally) to get down to Corpus. Our route, if you're interested, was Highway 75 South to I-35 South through Waco and then down to Austin and San Antonio. We took 410 S to I-37 South and went all the way in to Corpus Christi. Our destination was JUST over the Corpus Christi Harbor/Nueces Bay bridge. Yeah, my favorite...a bridge!!
We arrived at the USS Lexington at 2:30. Our caravan parked underneath the bridge, as a matter of fact. We had to haul our belongings up the ramp and into the ship. We were ushered into a VERY hot ship! It was not air conditioned at all. The boys were sent to stand in a taped off area where they got their briefing. They always had to say "Yes sir!" or "No sir!". They were to keep their shirts tucked in and their hands OUT of their pockets! (Pockets are for your junk not your hands!). They were also told NOT to open closed doors. No going out of the berthing area without an adult. Absolutely NO RUNNING on the ship. The boys had to attend General Muster in full uniform. They were required to be in uniform for Evening Colors as well.
They took the boys down to their berthing area, then led us to ours. Our beds were called "racks". We were allowed a "rack" and a locker. After we got settled, rolled out our sleeping bags and put away our valuables (locked up, of course!), then the ship was ours to explore until 4:45. We did some of the self guided tours, then sent the boys down to change, we got freshened up and got back upstairs to get ourselves to Hangar Bay 2. They held General Muster there, explained the rules, warned us that IF there was a fire on the ship, we needed to get above decks as quickly as possible. We were also to put on shoes as we didn't need burned feet (the decks are metal and did melt "heat resistant" boots during the last fire). He also requested that we put on clothing before going upstairs. If we weren't, he'd send us back below to put it on! LOL!!
After Muster, he sent us downstairs to the Mess Hall. That was a nightmare! Down a flight of (NARROW) stairs, to the right, through a hall and through a plastic curtain. The people who were not fortunate enough to get into the hallway through the plastic curtain were not lucky at all. Our den leader came in soaked through. It wasn't a pretty sight, let me tell you!
We ate off metal trays (called "kids" because Cabin boys used to serve the officers on these trays). Friday's dinner was...ummm, what WAS it?? OH, yeah...Grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy and a roll. There was lemonade in the eating area if you wanted it. I don't think there was a single bit of greenery on that plate!
After dinner, we went back up to Hangar Bay 2. We milled around until 6:30, then attended a movie in the theater. It was called "Fighter Pilot-Red Flag". GREAT movie! I had to focus on the pilot's helmet or I'd have been ill as it was an Imax movie and it was dizzying. The screen was 66 feet tall, just so you have an idea of the scale of the thing! Noisy and LOUD!!! Most impressive and enjoyable too.
After the movie, most of us migrated up to the flight deck. We'd been up earlier in the afternoon, looking around and admiring all the old planes. We say Corsairs, an F-18 (??) Tomcat, an F-14, a Cobra (really cool!) and several of the planes used as trainers. I don't remember all the trainer planes' names. They were impressive. On that flight deck, also, there was a patch of wood from the original decking. It was in poor condition, but it was still there. Teak. Impressive!!
We met down in Hangar Bay 2 for a flag ceremony and Evening Colors. Our Cub Scouts were honored to take down the flag and fold it up after the flag ceremony. We learned about all the different flags our country has had flying over its shores. The "Don't Tread on Me" flag, the "Betsey Ross" flag, then the one we use today. PLUS, there were the flags of each of the 5 branches of the military as well as the POW flag. After that, they retired the colors for the night and our boys got to hep with that. Everyone said the Pledge of Allegiance and I swear, none of the Scouts' parents had a dry eye after that! I know *I* didn't!
I was also kind of teary eyed when the soldier who instructed the boys in the flag folding, saluted Aidan a little longer.
We roamed around the ship some more, then everyone went up to the flight deck to try to catch the fireworks that were supposed to go off at the conclusion of the Corpus Christi Cats' game. That didn't happen, so everyone went downstairs to the berthing area, got showered and went to bed. It was good that we did because they played Tattoo (the precursor to Taps) and warned us that we needed to get ourselves to bed soon. Then they played Taps and the lights went out.
The lights went back on and they played Revillie (sp?) at 6:45 am on the nose! We had 30 minutes to get ourselves up, showered if necessary and on the deck in time for Morning Colors and then breakfast. They were kind enough to give us coffee, which made for several happy adults (and some kids too!). They raised the flag, then we headed down for breakfast, which wasn't 100% ready. Breakfast was French toast, sausage, gross eggs, (they were NASTY!) and cereal and fruit. Plus OJ. LOL! The sausage and FT was okay. The eggs...ewww! I tossed mine!
After breakfast, we all gathered, got our lunches for the day and a token for escaping the parking lot, then we went off to our Saturday destination. We all went to the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History. We took a tour of Columbus' ships. The Spanish government had created replicas of the Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria. The Nina was undergoing deck renovations, so we just looked at it. Here's a little bit of blurb about it:
The ships are reproductions built by Spain to commemorate the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus' voyages to the New World. They took five years to build and cost $6.5 million. The three ships embarked on a tour of the Mediterranean and Atlantic ports of Europe in 1990 and 1991. After a successful tour of 18 United States ports, they arrived at their permanent home in Corpus Christi in 1993. The Pinta and Santa Maria are located at the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History. There are no guided tours of the Nina, moored at the Corpus Christi Marina, but can be viewed from the dock.
This is the museum with the Lexington in the background.
After the tour, we all dispersed for an unplanned afternoon. Most of our party went to the beach. The guys I rode down with drove us up and down Shoreline Boulevard in Corpus, looking at houses. We also managed to find ourselves a CVS, where I got Aidan some shampoo (bad mommy forgot to pack it!). He and I got back up on the ship and changed ourselves. Then we went down to the beach and walked around a little. I tell you, my sandals were NOT meant for walking in the sand. Neither were bare feet! That sand was hard! It was mainly gravel and shells with some sand. I think it'd have been better if we'd gone to Padre, but I have an issue with bridges, so, um, NO.
Saturday night there were in excess of 300 Scouts on board. That was a combination of Boys, Cubs and Girl Scouts. One troop came from as far away as Arkansas. They had to do our meals in shifts. Half the group went in one shift at 5:30, the other half went at 6:00. Then we had movies again (same movie for 6:30 and 7:00 showings, darn! I wanted to see Lewis and Clark!). Our group went up to the flight deck for Evening Colors. The nice gentleman who saluted Aidan the night before opened up the Cobra (helicopter) and let all the boys sit in it. Then we did our flag ceremony and he put it away. There was a wedding reception being held in Hangar Bay 2, so we were closed off from that. We had to get to the Mess Hall via the Quartermaster's office.
They held a scavenger hunt. It was so hot and so humid that our team gave up after covering the flight deck and the escalator. We were tired of the heat, humidity and wind! Man! That flight deck was just horrible for wind!!
They were telling the Saturday rendition of Ghost Stories (they were some way cool stories, I tell you!), so some of us just lingered at the fast food place called "the Mess Deck", bought cold water (MMMMM!) and/or ice cream. Then we decided that since there was a huge crowd, we ought to go down to our racks and get ready for bed. Some of us showered that night so we'd not have to fight the crowd the next day. It was good that we did!!
The group of Girl Scouts we were bunking with just would NOT shut up when they called Lights Out. The lights didn't go out automatically this night, so I went over and shut them off. Told all the girls to shut up and go to sleep. Someone decided to be a butt, and got up with their flash lights. I went back over with mine, told them "lights OUT! GO. TO. SLEEP!" They still kept giggling and talking, even after that (and I was spazzing out, laughing into my pillow for being such a beyotch!!), that I finally went back over (sans glasses) and told them, "you are NOT being respectful to us. WE are being respectful to YOU. Now. GO TO SLEEP!! DO NOT MAKE ME COME OVER HERE AGAIN!!" They kept the whispering to a dull roar then.
Our ladies (the moms of our Cubs) did the high five thing (quietly) and cheered. The girls just weren't listening to their troop leaders so I stepped in and put on my mean voice. hahaha!!
Came home yesterday morning. Got home at 4:00. Tony cooked dinner, Aidan and I just chilled. I fell asleep at 9:00 and went to bed. I didn't get up until 6:30 this morning. Time to get back into a "normal" routine tomorrow.
Today, Amanda had oral surgery to remove her implant that was supposed to anchor her teeth. She's doing fine but needs another dose of meds to keep up with the doctor's orders. She has a follow up appointment next Monday. It's a good thing I'm off that day!
I probably won't get to comment to everyone for a while. I'm still on vacation time. I'll try to start getting caught up tomorrow.
