Okay so Translator over at Rosetta Rants tagged me today.
I'm supposed to describe seven random things about myself.
So...lets get started
1. I have a big gap between my top two front teeth. They are big and there is even a bigger gap. Not quite bugs bunny big, but close. And the gap is almost the span of the grand canyon. And no I've never thought of getting it fixed.
2. I have a big weakness for hot cocoa and nutella. Not together of course. But I will turn insane and almost kill anyone in the house that touches my containers of hot cocoa and nutella. I have to buy the boys their own, cuz I'm dam greedy with mine.
3. I love to color fuzzy posters, and do latch hook rugs. I don't know why, seeing as I'm to dumb to figure out anything to do with them when I'm done, but I love to do them.
4. I am a smart ass to the core (as if you couldn't tell) I approach any and all situations with humor, even the serious one's. I'm snarky and spunky. That's just how I roll.
5. I knew my husband (not good) since 2nd grade. We only dated for 6 months, and were only physically together (he was over seas in the navy) for two weeks before we were married. It's worked though, we have been married 14 years.
6. I used to write poetry. I have a book with all my poems in it. Sometimes I would write two a week. I started when I was 14. It carried my through a very rough time in my life, a very mentally tortured time. When I thought the world was against me. When I married my husband, it all stopped. I've tried to sit and write it more, but nothing worth anything comes out (not that what I wrote was worth a hill of beans) I like to think it was a tool/gift from god to help me cope with things I needed too. And once I didn't need it anymore, it was gone.
7. There are some days I can't stop crying, and that I would sacrifice my health to the point of being in a wheelchair if I could just have my mom back for a few years. For as much as this woman irritated me and pissed me off on a regular basis. I miss her more that anyone could ever know. It also makes me think of death more often, and I scare myself to the point of piddling when I think about it to much.
Okay there are my random 7. I'm supposed to tag 7 other people. ummmm I dunno though, so if you wanna do it, go for it.
Have a good Hump day all!!!!!

Please don't squeeze the Charmin----KISS MY ASS!!!
I HATE you Charmin toilet paper!! HATE YOU!!! I hate you for falling apart when you get used. I hate you for tearing when one is wiping. You make people get dirtier trying to wipe with your sorry ass than if they didn't wipe at all. I HATE you for flaking apart and leaving little bally balls of toilet paper. That 1. get tangled up in the hair. and 2. make it look like it's snowing fluff balls every time you pull your pants down.
HOW I HATE CHARMIN TOILET PAPER
I adore you Quilted Northern.

Shame on me
Shame on me for not blogging better this week. I've been reading and commenting, but haven't brought myself to blog anything.
I've been taking kiddo to swimming lessons every day. He pretty much has it down, he just needed a little refresher. With the pool closed from mid August till June every year and the lake to cold to swim in till June. He hasn't really swam much in a year or two. I also finally got my lazy butt out and about doing some errands, and I went and got my nails done. Red, White and Blue designs baby.
I think switching my hormone meds has made me feel BLAH for the last month. I'm not quite done with the first month of them. It takes a month or two to level back out. But let me tell you, I'm so glad I'm back on these one's, cuz my girlie parts is feeling much better. whooohooooo
Last night was nice, on the spur of the moment, my Aunt and Uncle went and bought some hotdogs and buns and came down and we cooked. It's nice to do stuff like that. And....we were sorta "distant" relatives even though we lived in the same small town. That is one thing that has come out of my mom dying. It has really brought alot of the family back together in the way she always wanted them to be. It's sad that that's what it took, but we have all decided. She died so young, you really just don't know when someone will be gone.
Well...I'm off for now. Got a very busy weekend. I've even made Gigantor a list. hehehehe And we want to do a few things around the house some more, and Gigantor is going to help the hunter/safety group move their storage shed. So...Kiddo and I are off and cleaning up some extra stuff around here. 1. cuz it needs it. 2. Because we want to surprise Gigantor. I'm sure he won't even acknowledge that we did it, and I will end up mad at him all weekend, but oh well. hehehehe
Have a good weekend everyone!!!!

Kill Em Till Their Dead
I learned something new yesterday. I learned that when your a cat, even an old cat like mine, that there comes times that you just have to KILL your tail. Kill it till it's dead.
I don't mean the, chase it being all cute, and pounce on it, holding it with a paw, kill it till it's dead. I mean the, make an evil sound, with flaming eyes, attack with all claws and teeth bared, kill anything that your tail had touched, including a magazine, the dogs face and my leg, trap it with the bob cat like claws, and bite it till the cat screams and it's bleeding, kill it till it's dead.
There has to be some purpose for this. Has to. We all know that cats don't do anything without good reason. They are so serious, don't like to have fun, dignified, perfect, and generally rule the world. (okay I may have gone slightly to far, they think being grumpy is fun)
In other news. Gigantor and I love scary movies. Love them!! And Kiddo has been begging for a couple years to start watching some scary movies. I haven't let him as of yet. (remember aliens, and predator, and starship troopers, does not count as a scary movie in this house, that's been normal watching since he was about 7) Any how, he's 11 now, and I thought maybe he could handle watching one with me in the middle of the day. One that wasn't so bad. Well...apparently, he's not ready. hehehehe We watched one yesterday, and it's still effecting him today. Poor thing. We only watched Jeepers Creepers, not bad...or so I thought. hehehehe
Have a good Tuesday everyone

Busy but Fun
We have been busy past couple days, but we've been having fun. Last night (evening) we took Kiddo and his friend K out to see Fantastic 4, Rise of the Silver Surfer. It was much better than I thought it would be. It was good. I didn't realize the Surfers voice was Lawrence Fishburn. He was awesome.
As we got out of the theater, we both had voice mails. It was from my aunt. Her and my uncle invited us out to dinner. There is a place called Paria Outpost. They have an all you can eat bbq. All their meat is smoked. They have a small salad bar, then they have smoked beef brisket, pork ribs, chicken, salmon, rolls, cornbread, pinto beans, spanish rice, and then three or 4 choices of desert. OMG the beef brisket is my favorite, so good and tender, and smoked just right.
After dinner we visited with them a bit. My insomnia kicked in and I didn't fall asleep till almost 3 in the morning. Gigantor let me sleep in this morning and he did some vacuuming. He's a good giant. Then he ran to walmart for dog food, and grabbed Ghost Rider DVD. I told him that was part of his fathers day gift. He was fine with that.
We then had some sonic, and watched the stargates we recorded last night. Went to safeway, to buy some steaks that were on sale (for dinner tomorrow), some t-bones. Also stocked up our fresh fruit and veggies. Then we all played around as a family for a bit. And...we had some dinner, and then Gigantor and Kiddo went down to the carnival.
I say down, because it's about 4 blocks down the way from us. hehehehe They called me on the cell phone when Kiddo was on the Sizzler. Daring little shit. hehehe
Tomorrow I think we are just gonna clean the birdcage, and do some dishes, and probably watch movies. Gigantor deserves to relax.
To all you dad's out there HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!!!

Unauthorized Breeding
There was some unauthorized breeding going on in my vortex bra tonight. Man...I have no idea how I got half a pound of crumbs in there.
We had sandwiches tonight, and I swear it's like I shook out the loaf bag in my bra. Then they migrated into my undies. How in the world do crumbs breed and migrate like that???
In other news, I've been searching for my cat. Because I think something with fur exploded in my kitchen over night. I swept before bed last night and woke up to tons of fur all over the floor. I know it's shedding season. But dam, that was alot of hair, wondering if someone exploded.
I think my dog lost all of his brain finally too. he's been coming in and laying on his bed/pillow, but just his butt on it. So that his head is down and all the blood runs to it.
Well the gerbil is seriously staring at me again, so I'm gonna be the one to give in this time, and I'm going to go to bed. That dam gerbil can count this one as a win.
On a side note, I must have a major case of the lazies when it comes to my pictures. I can count about 15 of them in different rooms that are hanging crooked. It's driving me nuts, but I'm to dam lazy to reach up and fix them. Maybe I'll wait till all of them I own are crooked then I'll tilt the house. hehehehe
Okay have a good Tuesday night and Wednesday everyone!!!

Brought Back
I think the aliens have finally brought me back. I must have been abducted or something, cuz I've been gone from blogs for so long. I'm beginning to think I was probed too. *smirk*
I've been fighting off some sinus stuff, and knees so sore I can barely walk, since Alekx and House Elf went home.
We had a great time though, we were so very busy.
Thursday night they got here late, and of course we visited, and ate sonic, and visited.
Friday--We went out to the dam, and walked around, missed the tours though. Ordered some pizza for lunch, and House Elf and kiddo put his bed together (they brought my mom's sleep number bed for kiddo) And Alekx and I cut up a bunch of stuff for prep work for the bbq on Saturday.
Saturday--we went up to the doctors, to sit with my dad, and find out the particulars on his blood clot. We then finished cleaning and making stuff for the bbq, then that night had a bbq for about 15 or so people.
Sunday--We loaded up the 4 wheeler and ice chests and went up to the mountain. Saw tonssss of deer and kaibab squirrels. Got home after dark and had leftovers for dinner.
Monday---We went out shooting till the afternoon, then all came home and cooled down, I think we ran to walmart or whatever. Made dinner, called it an early night.
Tuesday---got up at 4:30, and went up to Kanab to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary for a tour and to do volunteering. It was nice, found a dog I wanted to bring home, but restrained myself.
Wednesday--We ran to the store, went through a bit more of mom's stuff, helped them pack up, and we ordered out for Chinese. hehehehe
Thursday--went out to breakfast then they were on their way. I came home and napped. lmaoooooooo
That was our week, then I've spent the rest of the time recuperating from our vacation.
It was really good to see them, and I miss them already. Hopefully I'll be back to reading and commenting and posting more regular now.
Happy Monday all!!!

Quick note
Just a quick note. Dad is doing a bit better with the shots. He is getting his blood tested every other day. They need to get it thinned down to dissolve the clot. It's about 4 inches long and it's under his knee.
Thank you all so much for your prayers and thoughts. You don't know what it means to me. I really appreciate it.
Alekx and House Elf are still here till Thursday, they leave that morning.
I'm off, I need to shower, and crawl my butt in bed, it's already midnight.
Have a good couple days all!!!!
