Happy Dio de los muertos !!!

The kids are doing a unit for the Day of the Dead for school. They are loading up the van to go to their homeschool group meeting, and they are having a full party, with sugar skulls and everything. We made 50 of them to share and decorate. Who thought a little 4 inch tall skull could be so cute!!

Anyhoo...I got a call from my mom last night and I have come to realize that my family is trailer trash. Bonafide Jerry Springer material. I am actually glad to be the black sheep. My niece had a baby last night. I didn't even know she was pregnant, but I try to have very little to do with that part of my family. Sounds bad, but let me finish. She isn't quite sure who the dad is. She is hoping for one guy, because the other one is a drug dealer, and she doesn't want him to be the one. My Half-brother (her dad) in the meantime is also expecting a baby in 5 months. The mother is a friend of my niece who is only one year older than her. (He's 39, she's 22) His current girlfriend isn't aware of this however because she was just extradited to Texas on a violation of probation charge. His second ex-wife planted drugs on her and when she was busted, the warrant popped up. His best friend was also arrested for possession, and since he was living with him and ran up a $700 electric bill, and now they can't pay the bill, they are all living with my half-sister, along with my nephew, who is 23 but has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, (from the first ex wife) so is unable to function in society.

See PupE, you thought your family was bad.

Anybody got Jerry's number?
