Today I had my free massage from school. It was wonderful. I let my therapist decide on what kind of massage I received. She told me that for all but my back she did a swedish massage and then for my back she did a deep tissue. Well I feel great except for my shoulder blade that she really worked on. I will feel better tomorrow. Not shure if the bosses like the fact that I was not good for much today after the massage. I felt like Jello most of the day. I will be signing up for more massages when they are opened up again.
I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. We will be spend the day at my Mother in laws. Friday I will be one of the crazies that shops at unGodly hours in the morning. Then home to start putting up Christmas decorations.

OH my only three weeks left
Well started to work on my final paper for my Intro to Business course today. It is due in three weeks. so I thought maybe I should start. It has to be at least 4 pages with a power point presenation. When I present the paper it needs to be a minimum of 7 minute so I have a feeling it will be more than 4 pages. I have been assigned St. Jude Medical to write about. Since the start of class I have had to follow their stock, which by the way has dropped. I need to include why the stock did what it did no the paper, or least guess why it the stock dropped. Well I am on my way as I have one page just about done so I will try to write about a page a day for the rest of the week then I can edit it. I will more then likely have a couple of friends read it to make sure it flows. Other than that school is going great. I am getting really good grades in my classes.
We just registered for classes so next quarter I have Intro to Macroeconomics, Computer Imformation systems, and Interpersonal relations. These should not be to bad to do together. I was hoping to take the Comp class but it was only offer on a night I was not available.
As for knitting I am still working on the unoriginal hats for my small group girls. I now have only 3 done and I am going to run out of yarn on the fourth one (I know, Knit faster). I will need to wait until this weekend to get more yarn. I need to order yarn for christmas gifts, then knit the gifts. I have a feeling I will be giving the gift of yarn then knitting after christmas.

Soccer Tournements.
Well Nick team lost the both games at the soccer tournements this last weekend. I feel bad for most of the kids, they tried very hard. Their is one kid on the team that we have had run ins with. He thinks he is the best player on the team and wont pass the ball to anyone and when something goes wrong he gets in my sons face and tells him it was his fault. Nick does not even need to be near the ball for this kid to start telling Nick he should not be on the team, he is not good enough to play soccer at all let alone on the varsity team. My son and I have talked to the coaches about this issue and we are told Nick should just ignore him. Well, I now that I do not have any emotional disablities and I would not be able to take that on a daily bases. So how the Hell is a child of 15 (Mentally 10) to deal with this. Well on Friday night at in the middle of the game the kid got in Nicks face again this time pointing his finger about an inch from his face. I watch for a minute or so then was on my way to yell at the coaches when one went up to them to stop it. Well my son was very upset as expected and walked off the field. We finally got Nick to go back on the field, and the rest of the game was better. The coaches must have said something to the ASS HOLE (sorry don't like the kid) because he layed off Nick.
The next day before the game Rick and I went up to one of the coaches to make sure that they would be on top of this situation to make sure it did not happen agian. The coach that we were talking to called Nick over and talked to him about what he sould do if it starts again. Like it is Nicks fault. I told the coach that the other kid needs to be talked to also, and I was told that they talked to everyone. That was it, its like they only care to not upset the other kid. I am so angry that the coachs do not feel that this is a problem even though I have told them that Nick does not want to play (softball, which is in the spring)because of this kids. All they say is we need you. The Coachs asked me what they should do about this? Isn't that their job to know how to deal with bullys. I do not care if this is a team for kids with disablities or not harrassment is still harrassment and wrong.
Ok enough venting, Sunday the family went to the Water Park of America and had a blast. We found out Ry does not like water on her head and she love the family hot tub. We spent about 4 hours playing in the water and all came home exhusted. This was great family time.
On the knitting front I have made 2 1/2 unorignal hats. I still have 4.5 to make for my small group girls. I was hoping to have them done by Wednesday, but with class and home work I do not think I will be able to get more than the other have done. I will need to give Rach back her needs on Thursday, cuz I don't feel right keeping them longer as she also want to make the hats. I will go this weekend and purchase my own needles.

Misc thoughts
I need help as you can see I changed my colors. Now I have a wrench on the side bar. I did not change anything else, so how do I get rid of them?
I thought with the season changing I would change the colors of my blog. Well I am also still trying to figure all this out. I am hoping to add link buttoms but just don't exact understand how to do it. Well the updates will have to wait until after I am done with the chapter readings that I have to do for my Into to Business Class on Monday. Maybe I will do some reading and when I need a break I will try to figure this thing out.
On another note; Nick's Soccer team has their first state Tournament game tonight at 5:00 pm. This should be interesting as they are planning the #1 team from the North division and they are in 4th place for the South Division. This is the first time in about 4 years that this team is not going into the State Tournements in first place and they are really struggling with that. The games are held at Stillwater High School, which is nice as it is only about 15 minutes from my house. Well I will try to post pics this weekend.(sometime Mac does not want to give me my photos.)
Lisa posted about women doing "cat calls" to men. Lisa I have to agree with you that it is wrong for anyone to do that, and about the double standards, most men would not care and would more than likely think it was flattering to have a pretty women doing "cat calls" to them, but if the person(s) doing the "cat calling" is not their ideal person they get upset. Personally I don't think anyone should be doing it in the first place, but that is just me.
I finished one of the unorginal hats from Yarn Harlot, because I did not swatch before the hat is for Ry and will only fit for a very short amount of time, as it is small now. Thanks to Rachel I started another one with different yarn and borrowed needles from Rachel. I hope this will turn out bigger. Again I did not swatch so we will see what I get.
I guess this should be it for now I should really do some work.

Yeah mid terms are done
Well, last night was my last mid term. I am pleased to say I think I did very well. If things keep going the way they have been I think I will walk away with A's in all three classes. I am very happy with the way this quarter is going. We start to register for the next quarter classes on Nov 12th. I think I know that classes I want to take next quarter, Composition,Accounting 1, and MS office II. Again I will be short one credit to be considered full time but 3 classes is enough for me at one time.
Well for knitting. I frogged the shawl again. As I was changing colors I noticed that the pattern was messed up again. I think I will need to work on this when Liz is around to have her look at it to see if it is me or the pattern. More than likely it is me. I am working on finishing Ry's sweater. I am going to look in my stash to see if I have the yarn to make the unoriginal hat from the yarn harlot. I need a new hat and if it work out as well as I hope I might make some for christmas gifts. As I have not started any holiday knitting.
I have been working on updating my raverly site. only spend about a 1/2 hour working on it. So not much else done. I also have tryed to put a link on the blog but it did not work.
