Danger prone Daphanie

I have decided that Camilla is Danger prone Daphne. She injures herself in the weirdest ways. Chloe's injuries are all sports related but Cami does stuff likes slips on ice. The latest is that on Tuesday she slipped on the front steps of our house and fell upstairs. Yes, I did say upstairs, and cracked her head open and hurt her hand. Her hand may be broken but they couldn't see anything yet. She came in the house screaming like someone just cut off her arm or leg. She was bleeding from her head. Head wounds bleed so much. So we got to go to the hospital and spend some quality family time at the emergency room. Of course she does this just as we were getting ready for bed. They super glued her head back together and put her arm in a brace. Now her head is shiny where the super glue is and she has bruises all over and a brace. She said I could convince people that my parents abuse me but I told her not anyone that knows her that well. Everyone that knows her knows she is danger prone Daphne.

I need a weekend from this weekend

This weekend has been one heck of a weekend. It started on Thursday(that is when you know it's bad), Viewmont high has National qualifying tournament this weekend. Jeff and I are working concessions. So Thursday we were there from 2:00 to 10:00. I took Friday off which was a good thing. We started at noon on Friday and I went home at 10:00. Saturday we had to be there before 7:30AM.

Normally I don't like to judge because these kids are amazing and I feel nervous that I am making the wrong decisions, but they came and got me at 4:00 PM and said they needed me to Judge because I was one of the only ones who hadn't seen or judged the group they needed. So I got done with that and then they needed me again for a final round. I was very nervous because that round would decide who would go back to nationals and who wouldn't. These kids work so hard and so long on their pieces and their public speaking skills that I think they should all go. Being around these kids makes me feel really dumb. They are debating things like should we be concerned about Russia and Venezuela conducting exercise and doing interp pieces on Judy Garland that sound just like her and no child left behind.

If that wasn't enough Chloe' had one hectic weekend also. She was at a very lat night young women's event and came home Saturday morning at 1:00AM. She got up and helped me in the morning and then I took her to work only to find out they didn't need her so she came back to help out. she had a Jobie event at 2pm which she missed because she had to help while I judged and watched a round. She went home and went to help with props for skit competition in a couple of weeks. She finished up her night with a soccer game. Needless to say she came home, ate and went to bed.

I definitely need a weekend from this weekend!!!
