Glasses or no glasses...that is the question...

Well for awhile now Angelina has been saying her eyes r out of whack. Its not all the time and isnt even every week but shes mentioned it several times and it seems to be getting more and more frequent. She finally has her appt today at 5pm to get her eyes checked for the first time ever. If she has Waynes eyes she stands a decent chance of not needing glasses but if she has my eyes shes screwed totally! Almost everyone in my family has glasses at least for reading and I would still have them myself 24/7 if it werent for fabulous laser eye surgery. She says she wont mind if she needs them (her Cousin Tay has them and looks great!) and is glad to have it checked out but personally I think if she does get glasses its going to be a battle. First shes picky picky picky so I fully intend to spend a fortune. Second Robyn has to have everything that anyone else has so that will be big trouble. Obviously she will have to get over it but still it will be interesting. I guess we'll see in a few hours!

Holy Facebook and ur addictions T, Lettie, Rho, Christie and Diana!

Ok Facebook has to stop adding new things. I have sooooooo many invites and notifications I cant keep up. Between T, Lettie, Rho, Christie and Diana I might go nuts LMAO! I dont know how u guys keep up with these things. I can barely keep up with just Mafia Wars and Pirates. Youve got eggs and hatching things and hunts and holy cow the list never ends. U all need help with ur addictions!

Now onto my own addictions LMAO! Mafia Wars is awesome. I never get into things like that but I really like it! Im making like $60,000 an hour now which is nothing compared to some of the people Ive seen playing but is still a lot to me. Im doing some serious ass kickin which I love lolol! I even got Wayne playing last nite and although he isnt as easily addicted as I am but Im betting he will be soon!

Pirates I just started only to humor Christie LMAO but its pretty much the same as Mafia. Takes some getting used to the differences but its workin good. When my energy is down on one I can do the other till it builds back up!

As for the Funkeys Im getting better at remembering whats where and who can go to which places thanks to Lettie. Angelina was playing for quite awhile yesterday really getting into it. Robyn just thinks they r cute to carry around and make them into a little family. Josh is still getting over his flu but hes feeling a lot better every day and thank God no one else has it yet!

Wayne started EB yesterday so Im down to working only Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday which really is fine with me. Tax season is slowing down quite a bit (not that it ever really got busy this year) so Im good with only 4 days a week till April 15th when its all said and done. Gives me more time with the kids!

Anyway thats all for me. I gotta pretend to work for awhile LMAO! Till next time!

UB Funkeys r pretty cool!

Ok so Lettie has been playing these UB Funkeys things with the cousins for quite awhile now. At Christmas time Mom asked me if I thought my brats might like em and I didnt know so she went ahead and got them a starter pack. Well here it is March and I finally got around to hooking it up the other day after having Lettie tell me a little about them at her house. Holy freakin cool hey! Between the two Lettie gave us and the two Mom started us off with we had a good time with em night one. Only problem was the hub (thing u hook to the comp) kept dieing so I had to go get another and return the broken one. No biggie. While there we saw on clearance two more one being a "chat funkey" so we got that and then we got two for Josh and Angelina to have on Robyns bday yesterday bringing us up to 8 funkeys! Each funkey unlocks different games and things and weve already started building our house for em online. Robyn and Angelina r really getting into it and Josh while a little old for it does like the games so its cool. Just another little addiction only good thing is this one doesnt require feeding and its really pretty cheap LMAO!

Still kickin!

Wow! Cant believe its been this long since Ive been on here! Anyway we r all still kickin. Robyn turns 3 today. I cant believe it! Yesterday she got her ears pierced. We wanted to wait till she asked for it to be done like we did with Angelina and shes been asking a lot so we gave in. She did good and is so brave! Ill post a pic later on. Josh and Angelina r good. Everyone just got over a nasty ass cold - hopefully the last one of the year! Wayne starts Electric Boat tomorrow finally. A nice chunk of $ more and hour and tons more growth available so it will be a good change I think. I had to cut down work to 4 days a week but Im really fine with that. These 50+ hour weeks have been KILLING me! Thank God April 15th is knocking on my door LMAO! New car is great. Its an Outback and I love it. Takes some wear and tear off the Malibu too so its good. Lets see what else? I guess thats it! Ill post some pics later of the birthday girl!

Holy pregnant sea monkey!

Ok yes I know they r just "shrimp" but holy crap one of our sea monkeys is knocked up and the egg sac is MASSIVE! Its been there for quite a long time though (a good couple weeks) and I cant seem to find anywhere online that says how long they stay pregnant for. I hope she doesnt die before she lays the eggs. The suckish thing is we had some babies about 2 weeks ago and they all died so Im thinking its just too cold for them downstairs now and they need to be moved upstairs. Sucks because there really isnt a place I can put them where Robyn wont touch them so I am going to have to find a shelf I can hang for them. Might look a little out of place but at least it will keep them safe from small curious hands! Anyway thats my exciting news of the day. I would say I'll post pics but yeah no lol.

New cage, bottles, tax school & dogs!

First of all the dogs r driving me INSANE! Ive been gone since Wednesday morning from 7am till 10pm for tax school and the dogs have a harder time with it than the kids do! Now thats sad LMAO!

School is going ok though. Pat and I have a few issues with others in the class not doing as much as they should be but Al the owner is on top of it. Im just so afraid Im going to end up a baby sitter like last year and I dont want to do that again. I want to do taxes and not just sit around fixing other peoples mistakes! After all the crap last year I really wasnt sure I wanted to do this again but now Im pretty excited about it and hopefully it will go well and turn into a yearly thing that I enjoy.

So last week I got a new cage for the boys. A girl didnt need it anymore so I went and got it and they love it! The pic of it is at the top of this post because I cant get it to move down here LOL! Anyway it sells for between $110 and $130 and I really wouldnt be able to afford one new for a long time so this was a great find. Its pretty easy to clean too. Tonite I managed to pop all the shelves out and scrub them down and get them back in and it really didnt take that long. I love it!

As for bottles Rho got me into this message in a bottle craft swap thing and Im really excited about it! Heres a link to some info:

http://gomakesomething.com/challenges/mib/mib-about/

I think its going to be a lot of fun so if anyone wants to join in let me know!

Well thats all the news here and now Im off! Till next time!

Wow been a lifetime!

Ok so Ive been doing shitty at keeping this thing going. With all the crap going on here Im surprised I dont have much time though so its not totally my fault. So where to start? Well lets see. Ive been sicker than hell. Wicked cold/cough that just wont quit for 2+weeks now and seems to be coming back again. Josh got it about a week ago and he really was coughing so he went to the Dr and is on antibiotics but hes some better. Angelina just got it 2 days ago and shes not too bad thank God and Robyn only has a slight cold again thank God! Wayne hasnt gotten it at all - lucky bastard! Speaking of Wayne. Hes going for this huge (and by huge I do mean HUGE) job and if he gets it we will be so set its not even funny. He passed all the testing with flying colors and is just waiting for the formal interview which hopefully will be soon so everyone cross ur fingers on that one! What else? The damn animals! Shimmer got sick last week. Out of the blue she was throwing up and unable to keep even water down so off to an emergency vet visit we went. $105 (not bad actually) later we come home with pills for puking, new thyroid pills, iv fluids & needles. She was better the next day so Im thinking it was something in the yard she ate. Cry Baby on the other hand is another issue. Basically hes not himself and Im saying its because his skin is so itchy (he has such sensitive skin). Im heading tomorrow to get him some meds for it and see how it works out. All of the other mutts, cats, bunny, hamster, rats, hermies, fish & sea monkeys r good. On a totally different note the classes Pat and I have to take for out Jackson Hewitt job r moving right along. I was very nervous meeting the owner for the first time. I cut my hair so my tattoo shows and I wasnt sure if he would say anything about that or my nose & eyebrow piercings. So I was almost going to say forget it because I didnt know what he would be like but I didnt. So far he hasnt said anything about them so thats a plus because I really dont want to take them out since they get infected so easily and covering the tat isnt going to happen period. I wasnt so sure he liked me the first few classes (we go twice a week) but as time goes by he seems to be ok with me and hes a really nice guy so I think working with him will be good. The classes r fairly easy but the last chapter really took a lot of work and thinking. It was good though. Pat and I worked together on it at home and we really did learn a lot that we didnt already know from doing taxes before. So yeah I think its going to be good and Im actually excited to get moving doing real returns. Well I guess thats it! I really cant think of anything else fun or exciting so Ill write more later! Ciao!

Holy sea-monkeys!

So we got Angelina sea-monkeys for her bday and holy crap they have hatched like crazy! I didnt put the whole pouch of eggs in because I wasnt sure I was supposed to and I figured save them so if they dont hatch I can add more since its been chilly here at nite. Well over the past three days Ive been adding eggs slowly and we have a TON of monkeys hatched! I cant believe how many. Kind of amazing really when u think about it that they can just package this shit up and bam they hatch. T's even mate! We also got her the butterfly tree house so we mailed away for the caterpillars and once they come we r going to do that. The only thing is with it getting cold (Im a yankee people it gets cold here early!) chances r we will have to keep them in the house for their entire lifespan which wont me good once they drop dead on us. The kids know they wont live all that long though so hopefully it will be ok. I think it will be neat for them to watch though so I cant wait. Anyway thats my monkey experience so far! Cant wait to see how big the little shits grow LMAO!

My baby is 8!

Well one of my babies anyway lmao! Yesterday was Angelinas bday. We spent it at the beach clamming and having fun. It was a good day. Then last nite Im sitting here getting ready to come in the house for the nite and in walks my Mom with a pillow and blanket. Im like wtf lmao! She had promised Angelina a sleep over but I totally didnt expect her to do it. Well she did and she even slept till 4:30am which is a miracle for my vampire of a Mother. Today Im making clam chowder and fritters with the clams we got yesterday. Everyones pissed Im not making clear broth and instead Im making red chowder. I like the red a lot and I found the recipe for Rocky Point Chowder House which is an amusement park that used to be open when I was a kid through my late teenage years. Well they had all u can eat chowder and fritters and we used to go there several times a year with my Grandmother and it was just amazing. First u eat and eat and eat till ur ready to pop and then u go puke it up on all the rides lmao. It was a blast! Well the place closed down many years ago and they had a small restaurant that still served their red chowder and fritters but they closed down last year so I decided screw it Im gonna make my own with the recipe I found. So far it tastes pretty damn good so I cant wait to eat! Anyway thats my day and Im off! Till next time!

Magic Eraser!

Ok I really just have to say I love the Magic Eraser!!! OMG! Seriously if u havent tried one go right now to Walmart and get a package. Ive never used them before but yesterday something in my head said "have Wayne get a Magic Eraser on his way home from work" so he did and WOW! Rarely if ever do things seen on TV actually work "as seen on TV" but I can honestly say these do. Heres my list of pros & cons and things it works on so far.

Pros:

1. U dont use soap.
2. Because u dont use soap u dont have to rinse what ur washing.
3. U just wet the thing then ring it out so u dont have nasty soapy water running down ur arms. Ur virtually using it dry.
4. No smell. If ur like me and dont like the way a lot of soaps smell this is a major plus.
5. The kids can use it because u dont have to apply tons of pressure.
6. Cheap. 2 for $2.22 at Walmart. Seriously thats a good deal hey.
7. U can use it on just about any surface. If u go online there r TONS of tips and do's but really there r hardly any dont's.
8. U use it then rinse it in the sink and use it again. Ur not sticking ur hand in a nasty bucket of gross water and washing things with dirty water. Ick!

Cons (I only have 2!):

1. It doesnt last forever. Really I did a lot of washing with the 2 we bought (Waynes buying 6 more today!) but yeah they dont last as long as I would like. Really though if ur using it just for the random crayon on the wall or nasty hand print on the door its going to last u quite awhile.
2. Once it starts to crumble THROW IT AWAY! I tried to keep using it with it in pieces. Not smart. it just left pieces on the wall. The good thing is once it dried the pieces easily wiped away.

Things I washed with it (now dont think my house is a piss hole from this list!):

1. Hand prints up and down the stair way walls/banister. Seriously with 3 kids going up and down the stairs my stair way walls were NASTY! Sure I spot clean it with bleach spray but honestly its a pain in the ass. The ME worked GREAT!
2. Angelinas drawings on the walls. What can I say? Shes an artist. The ME took away marker, crayon, paint (washable kids paint) and highlighter. Really it left little if any behind.
3. Mildew in the bathroom. We have one small hand print sized section in our bathroom that has been mildewed for years. Its never come off with anything yet until now. It wiped away with such ease I almost shit my pants. At least I was in the right room in case I had LMAO!
4. Food! Food! Food! This thing cleaned the micro like nothing before. It looks damn near brand new now. Stuck on shit that I havent been able to get out for years came out like nothing.
5. Ok picture this. U have a screen door and 6 dogs. The 6 dogs go outside, shit, piss, eat and then they scratch this screen door to be let back in. Imagine how nasty that door gets on the bottom. Do u really think I want to stand there with a bucket and scrub the thing putting my hand in gross dog water to ring out the rag? Um no. Needless to say it doesnt get washed often and was N-A-S-T-Y! Well the ME hit it and I swear I heard the door moan a sigh of relief. It looks amazing!
6. My grandmothers wooded butcher block. As every knows my Grandfather was a butcher. My Mom was a butcher. All my Uncles were and some still r butchers. So naturally we have several butcher blocks and naturally the edges r just icky. Well the ME takes it all away!
7. Fridge! OMG! U can see urself in the damn thing its so shiny!

And that completes the list of what Ive used it on so far. I was literally up scrubbing until 2am and I was enjoying myself! Ive never had so much fun cleaning in my life. Now I just have to wait for Wayne to get home from work with the next batch so I can scrub some more! Everyone run! Dont walk! RUN to Walmart and buy several boxes NOW! And for those of u who receive Xmas gifts from me plan on Magic Erasers every year from here on out LMAO!

Long weekend and even longer day ahead today

OMG what a weekend. Lets see. Heres all the things I/we (me and Mom or me and Wayne) did and how long it took:

• Cleaned porch room, Me/Mom 3 hours total - now for anyone who hasnt been to my house this is a HUGE ass room with a cement floor, raw wood beam walls/ceiling and huge huge windows. Its where the dogs eat when they eat outside and its a dirt and dust magnet full of spiders and God knows what else. We clean it like twice a year and thats it because honestly u clean it one day and the next its so dusty again u cant see out the windows. The room is spotless...for now.
• Trimmed allllll the briers, poison ivy, tall shit weeds around the yard, Me/Mom 2 1/2 hours total - Keep in mine here I have a very big yard that sits ont he water. The dampness from the pond makes things grow like...well...weeds. Now normally trimming weeds wouldnt take so long but our weed whacker is broken so we had to use these little trimmer things. My Mom wouldnt go neat the poison ivy so I got stuck with that and one chunk of crap I pulled up had a nest of red ants under it. Naturally I didnt realize it until my legs were being bitten and my hands were covered with the damn things. That wasnt fun hey.
• Convinced Josh and Angelina to go through all their toys and get rid of some, Me/Wayne damn near 4 hours - Ok so stay with me here. We decided to take and go through all the kids toys and take some to salvation army. We being me and Wayne. The kids agreed at first. All in all we basically have just as many toys as we started out with so I plan to go through them again next weekend and get rid of more but for now they didnt do too bad. They got rid of about 5 bags total.
• Painted the gate, Me/Mom 1 hour - Ok seriously this should take like 20 mins max but the gate is a couple years old and has NEVER been painted. Its rough cut wood and seriously it was a bitch to paint. One of us used a big brush and the other used a teenie tiny brush to get all the ridges and hard to reach areas which was insane. That gate will never be painted again as long as I live.
• Re-arranged Moms room, Me/Mom 1 1/2 hours - This is nothing new. Even when Mom lived with me she was moving shit around in her room constantly. Since shes moved next door nothing has changed.
• Re-arranged Josh and Angelinas Rooms and moved the big TV to our room, Me/Wayne 1 1/2 hours - Really this was nothing just time consuming. When we got our big flat screen TV we had to put the big TV we already had in Joshs room in a corner. Well his TV ended up in the camper on our last trip and is still there so we decided to give him our medium sized TV and to put the big TV in our room. That required moving a dresser that is really Robyns into Angelinas room (Robyn and Angelina will share a room eventually) and moving some of our dressers to make this huge ass TV fit. It wasnt easy but its done. We also had to move the dollhouse which for those who havent seen it is giant and not quite finished out of Angelina room and into the upstairs hall (very harge hall) so I can start working on it again in the fall.
• Cleaned sand area, Me/Kids 1/2 hour - Basically I took a huge old tupperware and drilled some holes in the bottom for water to drain and turned that into storage for all the kids sand toys. Threw away some old chewed toys.

Thats the basic list. We did other little things like painting the deck railings (Vin), painting the upstairs hall/trim (Wayne), washing windows (Me), making curtains for Moms room (Pat/Mom), Garden work (Everyone) and so on. Basically no one sat down on Sunday other than to eat, pee and damn near have a heat stroke and Saturday once we started we didnt stop till dark. Now today and tomorrow my goal is the inside of the house which Im off to get started on right now! *sigh*

Vote for Robyn!

Ok I don't know why we r doing this because last year the winner got over 25,000 votes (Navy kid) but when Josh heard it on the radio he insisted we enter Robyn in the baby contest. So everyone go vote and pass this on to everyone u know and ask them to vote too! This is the link to vote at:
http://q105.fm/PhotoWall.asp?id=42892
And all u have to do is enter the 3 digit # for Robyn which is 056 and ur name and hit submit. U can vote a million times if u want too from now until the 19th! I don't know why but for some reason her pic is showing as just # 56 and not 056 but I know u HAVE to put in the whole 3 numbers so make sure u put 056 and not just 56. For those of u who don't want to go digging through all the pics to see her this is the pic I entered with. Its totally typical Robyn doing what she loves most - hamming it up for the camera and swimming lmao! Thanks everyone!

Enough with the books already!

Ok seriously this is insane. We used to own a bookstore for several years. During that time we accumulated a LOT of books in this house...damn near 1,000 I would guess. They r a mix of kids books, parenting books, art/craft books, reference books and just plain old good reading books. So last nite I decide Im going to attach about half of our books which currently reside on one very large book case in what used to be our school room but had now become our rabbit/rattie/hamster/hermit crab room. So I go in and I take allll the books off the shelves and dust them off. That took well over an hour. Then I pile them on the love seat, couch and LR floor and attempt to organize them with a 2 yr old throwing them all over the place. Yeah that didnt work. So I decide I can organize them on the shelves and I start having Josh and Angelina carry them in to me in piles. About 2 hours later we were done and sure enough there is some organization. Not as much as I would have liked but at least they r all standing up the way they belong and not thrown all over the freakin house. I told the kids if they touch a single book without me helping them get it Ill be really really mad LOL! I will get them all the books they want but I would at least like them to stay organized for a little while! My next task in that room r the high shelves. They r full of games and old craft supplies I need to look through and see what Im going to use and not use. That cant be done today though. Tomorrow Wayne is taking the morning off to make a dump run so I HAVE to get things together for that. Theres tons of things around this house/yard/Moms house that need to go to the dump and since we only get there once or twice a year this is my only chance. Its now or never as they say! Anyway thats the story on the books. Who wants to make bets on how long they stay organized? LMAO!

Update turns into vent...woops!

Wow its been awhile since I really did a full out update! Ok lets see. Basically everything is fine here. Kids r good. Starting school tomorrow. They arent real thrilled with that but they will live! I want to get started early so we can do some review before moving ahead and maybe take a long vacation in the winter. We did that last year too and it helped especially Angelina but Josh liked it too. Ive had a brutal cold for a few days that just doesnt seem to want to go away. Sucks especially when its so hot! Waynes fine. He got that job working 6pm-3am so thats a major plus. His orientation is on Tuesday morn and as long as that goes ok and he passes his lift test which he should hes set to start Wednesday nite. The PO claims the chick thats leaving is leaving by Sept 1st and if she really does than that route becomes Waynes. He will probably stay with the nite job for a few weeks after that just to catch up bills and then he will most likely either leave there and do only the PO or stay there part time. The main goal is still full time at the PO though so cross everything people! Im not doing so hot saving for a laptop! Bills just keep adding on and gas money is sick here so yeah. I did find a REALLY nice new 17 inch Dell with number pad for $898 so thats my goal. It will be great for at home plus with the Jackson Hewitt job Im taking it will be much easier doing my classes online on a laptop. Hopefully in a few weeks I can get it. In the meantime though this old rellic desktop is working quite well! I can even get into Pogo most times to do my badges! The only problem is Angelina keeps stealing the comp to play Pogo too. Little brat is faster than I am at a lot of the games LOL! Josh isnt into online games. Hes a Wii boy. Loves the Wii. I keep telling them that once we start school the games r off during the day and they r only playing at nite/weekends and they both just roll their eyes lol. Should be fun! Lets see what else? Critters r all fine. Weve had a weird summer. No calls for the dog warden at all that we know of! He hasnt come by even once. Of course we already won the court case so maybe the moron neighbor has called and the warden just didnt come but I dont think so. Its been quiet. Weird. The dogs r actually being better this summer though with the boats. They r 2 and I think they r finally starting to realize they live on the freakin water and the boats r here to stay lol. Idiots! Ratties/bunny/hamster/cats r all doing good. I moved all the girls together into the huge ass Martins cage. They actually got along great right off the start. I was afraid for the two hairless ones Peach and Mama Peach but even they r good to go. That left the other large cage open for the boys so they got moved in there and OMG they r THRILLED! They love the wheel. They have probably 3x the room theyve had since they were born. Really this cage is awesome for them. Id love to get them a big Martins later on for the 7 of them but really there is no rush. This cage has more than enough room for them even when they r full grown so once money is flowing again the way it should be and bills r paid then they can get another cage. For now they r good to go though! So about that vacation in the winter. The ratties r the only real issue. My Mom wont feed them which is just stupid. Throw some food in and fill their water how hard is that? Not very. Which means I have to convince Lettie to come do it since she likes the rats and knows what to do. Wayne and I both have cabin fever though big time and T didnt help. She posted up a bunch of pics from when we were out there in Nov. I cant believe how small Robyn was in those pics! 9 months doesnt seem like such a long time but looking at those pics it really is. So yeah I want another Vegas trip soon! Robyn talks to T every single day on the phone but thats not the same as seeing her ya know? Hopefully we can save up some money and get out there in the winter and see T, Terry, Donna and Sheri. Same with Phillip and Renay. I hate going so long between visits to them! It wasnt so bad because we were there in Nov too which was just an awesome and relaxing time with them and they were planing to come up here or us go there in the summer but that didnt happen so of course I miss them. They r our first real mutual friends. Like friends we both love and enjoy being with. Usually there is one person in a couple that u just cant stand lolol but with them we both love them both so it sucks them being so far away. I hope someday they will move up here but in the meantime I just want to go visit more often and I have to call them more! I dont know why but I just really dont talk to anyone on the phone much anymore. I talk to T everyday many times a day lol and Lettie usually at least 5 times a week or more. Rho I talk to a lot online and probably a couple times a week when things arent crazy. Amy, Phillip & Renay though I never talk to! I have to stop that and start calling more! And I want to go see Rho! We havent known each other as long but I really would like to visit her soon. We have so much in common and hit it off right from day one. Shes awesome and Im really glad we met. And Diana! Ive known Diana for as long as Ive known T and Ive never seen her in person! It would be awesome to finally take that trip up to MI and go to where Wayne grew up if we could get there without his mother trying to gun me down (seriously that battle needs to just end but how? - its just insane and stupid and really quite sad that the kids have only met one member of their fathers family) and see Diana at the same time. It sucks having most of ur friends clear across the country damnit! ANYWAY somehow this turned into a vent lmao so Im done! I just really need a vacation damnit! Ok well Im off. The next few weeks I wont be around much. We have insurance people coming to inspect both houses on Aug 13th. We have TONS to do around here before then so my online time is going to be very little between that and starting school. I try to get on when I can though. Have a good weekend all!

Some freakin tired!

OMG am I tired. Mom had a new book she had to go put out at midnite in 3 stores last nite so I went with her to keep her awake. Didnt get home till 3:30am then got about 3 hours sleep. Im a walking zombie hey! I need a huge ass vat of coffee and a major nap. Yeah like thats gonna happen!

Another weeked came and went

Well its been an interesting weekend! My little (not "little little" but little enough lol) cousin Tay slept over Saturday AND Sunday nites. Saturday nite we swam and played the Wii and watched movies. Then Sunday she asked to stay again but we didnt get hardly any outside time in because we had some pretty good t-storms and heavy rain so it was another movie and Wii day. Shes a pretty good bowler! Almost got her pro ball in just 2 days! Today we got outside pretty early since the sun was finally out. Anyway it was fun and all the brats were pretty good and even the dogs were good. They spent Saturday nite with Pat/Mom and Sunday I let them come home one at a time to see if they would like Tay. They loved her! Shim licked her to death this morning lol and even fat boy Glutton was pushing all up on her for the lovin. I havent let her sleep over much the past year or so because I didnt know if they would like it but now I know that isnt a problem! And she loves the rats! The boys came out a bunch of times and she held and kissed em up and down. I tried to stash a few in her bag and send em home with her but she caught me lmao! Anyway that was our weekend!

Anyone up for a charlie horse?

So Wayne twisted his ankle a few days ago and instead of going to the Dr to have it looked at he decided to work 12 hours a day on it. Well Thursday when we went to go bowling he couldn't even walk. He bowled but he couldn't tie the shoe and barely hit a single pin. We came home and he iced it and yesterday when he got up to go to work he couldn't walk at all. So hes standing at the foot of the bed with me sitting behind him and he says "Shit! If I move even an inch I'm going to get a wicked Charlie horse in the top of my damn leg! I can feel it!" so me being the bitch that I am took my hand and pretended I was going to shove a finger up his ass LMAO! He jumped a MILE! Worked that Charlie horse out real fast! Lolol! Anyway we went to the hosp and the ankle has a fracture but it looks like his healed somewhat so they arent sure when he got it. They r having another Dr look at the xrays today and then they will call and tell him if he has to go back next week and they will decide if they need to rebrake it and set it or what. For now hes on crutches and has an air cast. Joy! He went to do mail today. Not sure how hes driving since its his left foot but he already took yesterday off so he didn't want to lose another days pay. Then hes stopping an picking up my little cousin Tay and she and him r going to go grocery shopping and then shes spending the nite. We r gonna watch movies and do makeovers and swim swim swim.Should be fun! She hasnt slept over in quite awhile and the kids LOVE it when she does so they r even helping me CLEAN! That's a shocker! Speaking of cleaning I gotta get to it. Have a good weekend all!

Comp issues at their best

Well its finally happened. Im without a laptop :( damn thing. Its been bad. CD drive wont read/record, it wont shut down/reboot, its sooooo slowwww - basically its just crap. So I said screw this and I took it back to where I got it. Im not going to keep paying payments on something I can barely use! Im going to put aside $10 a day until I have enough money to buy a new one. I can get the same exact comp only with more memory/faster for $800 with NO payments! Until then Im using the crappy old desktop. Its actually working fairly well with the exception of being a tad slow. I might upgrade the memory if Im brave enough to open this old thing up. We'll see. Anyway thats the news here! Ill still be online just Ill be doing it a little slower for awhile lol!

And the fun continues

Well Vins jeep is busted. I guess the break line went so now Pat has nothing to drive. Shes having Jim get her a car today. Im just waiting to hear the "She breaks my car then gets a new one!" bullshit from Vin. I know its coming. Anyone want to take bets? Anyway Wayne took her to work at 4:30am this morning because he had to go to work at 5am when shes not supposed to be to work till 9am. Hopefully tomorrow she will have a car and no one will have to take her anywhere. Im going out tonite and deliver Avon catalogs while its not raining for a change. Hopefully Ill get some decent orders. Yesterday the kids decided to lock the bathroom door with no one in there. That was a fun half an hour trying to bust my way through the knob. YEEHAA! Anyway thats all the news here so far today! Im off to do laundry and try being constructive!

Its always something

Pat just called. Shes broke down with Vins jeep. Mom went to get her. Then Vin called having a fit because she has her cell phone turned off and hes heading up there to get the keys from her and cant get a hold of her. Another fun filled day! More to come later...
