Not Sure What to Call This Post...Too Much to Say!
Whew...hold on, I've got a lot to tell!!!
First, this morning I got to work with one thing in mind...clean up the mess of an office I have. I've had boxes everywhere, papers everywhere, files that haven't been touched in years, and everything got taken care of TODAY! The boss is back tomorrow, so timing couldn't be better.
Next, I went to lunch with Diane and Karen. Awesome. We walked to Anna's which I LOVE, plus the weather was just nice enough to call spring. I had a yummy quesadilla. I spent time with two wonderful ladies. They both are encouraging and positive, and I get so much from them.
After lunch I was on my way out of the restroom back at work when our receptionist poked her head in and said "You have a call you have to take, it's important" I told her I'd head to my office and she said, "no, you need to take it here." At this point I'm thinking CRAP...who broke what? What's wrong with who? Well, apparently the ladies at work had been entering me in a contest called "Working Mom of the Week" with 99.1 WFMK out of Lansing, and I WON!!! This is what appears on their website:
Can you even believe the wonderful people I work with??? It is simply amazing. I was ALMOST speechless...I'm so excited to take the kids to this awesome waterpark www.avalanchebay.com!!!WEDNESDAY WORKING MOM
Do you know a Working Mom who needs a break! Send us a fax at 394-9910 to win an overnight stay at Mountain Grand Lodge including water park passes to Avalanche Bay. Every Wednesday morning during the Morning Show Danny and Monica will draw one lucky winner. Give that special mom a break and nominate her for our WFMK "Wednesday Working Mom" from your station with the best variety of Lite Rock....99.1 WFMK!
After work I ran and got pizza and then Mom came over and watched the kids while Kyle and I went out for a bit. We ran to Sears and picked up some summer clothes for the girls, who are both clothes-less when it comes summer time, and then we went to see "Inside Man." It was a really good movie...lots of confusing little things that end up explained at the end...loved that!
So all in all, fun day for Beth :) I just have to say one last time how incredibly blessed I am...to have a family and friends that literally are pushing me through life with six kids with their kindness, support, and compassion. I am so thankful for each and every thing every person does...it is somethign I will never forget.

I'm so glad you won. I'm as excited as you are remembering the fun I used to have taking my boys places like this. I guarantee you will create memories for all of you that you will never forget. They may be out of their minds during their "difficult" teen years, but once they reach their mid twenties these are the things they remember that if you don't do with them you never get that chance again. I can't wait to have grandkids to start it all over!! I'm sure you guys will enjoy it, and I'll bet WFMK will be glad not to have to deal with the faxes from all of us every week!!
congratulations working woman :)
you are so awesome & it shows, & i'm happy people recognize you for it!!!!

Enjoy it and I know you will remember it because it will be scrapbooked in the coolest way, as usual :-) and I can't wait to see them!!! Enjoy, be carefree and have fun without ceasing (I wanted to use another word but it does not appear this thing has spell checker and I cannot leave a typo on my very first visit...
