Spring finally showed up

So I've been busy outside. Pulling weeds and trying to get the garden boxes ready for planting. I did cut my hair, only about 2 and a half inches and she was able to fix my color and make it blend a bit better, when I get the urge I will straighten again and post pictures. But now that its lighter I'm wanting highlights again.... We will see. My sister graduated on Thursday, it was a fun day. I'm proud of her. She got a scholarship and a grant so she will be starting community college in the fall.  It also looks like Andy is getting his butt in gear and is going to go back and finish up his degree, then once he's done, come Hell or high water or whatever cliche floats your boat, I WILL get my nursing degree.
I will write more and post pictures as soon as I can.  Did I mention I forgot to put sun block on the boys and myself? I am FRIED on my neck and arms, Will's got it on his face, Matty's neck is red and just Andrew's nose, so I don't feel like a total failure as a mother, seeing as I got the worse of it, but still, if you are going to be outside, put on sunscreen......
I LOVE that our HOA is actually enforcing rules and regulations and CC&R's and all that, because that is why we pay the stupid HOA fee, but when you are on the receiving end of the warnings and threats that your property is in violation of said CC&R's, and that you will get fined if you don't comply, it really BITES THE BIG ONE!!! Especially when we have so many damn weeds, I thought seriously of just setting fire to them today. But decided they were too close to our house and not to mention that our neighbors wouldn't be too happy if I set their grass and/or their houses on fire on accident....
I hope the swimming pools around here open soon.....

HOAs are both a blessing and a curse. We got a new management company in January. Apparently, the old one was really shady and we don't know where our money was going.

They have been finally taking care of maintainence things around here!

HOA's are hard, but then we live in a house now with no HOA...and no one around us cares to take care of anything...so I think I am with Kristina blessing and a curse.
