Merry Christmas!!!!

I want to wish you all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! May yours be filled with lots and lots of hugs, giggles, laughter, and love!!!!!

Hell Has Frozen Over!!

You have all heard me refer to Arizona as the 9th rung of hell. Well let me tell ya, Hell has finally frozen over. When you get 119 to 125 degrees in the summer, and that's normal. Freezing temps take you by surprise. Not only that. But....Monday night, it fricken snowed!!!! I don't mean the snow that fluffs around here then melts off at the first rays of sun. I mean snowed and 4 inches stuck, and today most of it is still stuck on the ground snowed. All the kids are excited. Last time it snowed and stuck enough for kids to play in was when Kiddo was 2. He is now 10. Time before that, I was 17. Lets just say that's a long time ago. hehehehee

I don't mind the snow so much. Driving around town in it is fine for me (now everyone else, drives like they don't know what it is, and crashes into stuff) I won't drive out of town on long distances in it though. I don't even mind the kids playing, or it being cold, or the dogs getting muddy paws. The main thing I mind about snow. Is walking in it. Like to the car, or to a store, or up and down the fricken icy steps!!!!!!!!!!! The husband does scrape and put salt down. But it still has a thin, very slick sheet of ice. And it probably would be fine, but ever since I fell in Texas and hurt myself so bad. I'm so very scared to fall again. Scared I'll fall by myself and the cell phone won't work, and people will find me frozen to the pavement. uggghhhhh

On a side note. My suburban tried to eat me alive today. The two front doors have been really hard to open from the inside. To the point that we have to have help sometimes getting out of the car. Kiddo had found the trick to getting in and out, you have to hold the handle a certain way, and move very slow and gentle, and the door will open. Well....insert snow and freezing temperatures. Now the fricken doors are worse than ever in the mornings. This morning I drive home from taking kiddo to school. I CAN'T GET OUT OF THE FRICKEN SUBURBAN!!!! IT HAS ME STUCK INSIDE, IT WON'T BUDGE, NO GENTLE, OR CRAZED SLAMMING MY SHOULDER INTO THE DOOR IS GONNA OPEN THIS BITCH!!!! So...I calm down, and try rolling the window down to open the latch on the outside. Well...again since my fall in Texas (where I also dislocated my elbow pretty bad) I can't seem to twist my arm around enough to open the latch. I'm to chunky (fat people) to get myself turned around in the seat to use the other arm. For some reason I can't get the seat to recline back so it's easier to do. With the problems in my back and legs, I couldn't get my toosh over the middle console to get out the other door, WHICH WAS FRICKEN STUCK ALSO!!!! Again I start the mad woman SLAMMING MY SHOULDER INTO THE DOOR CURSING AT THE SUBURBAN TO LET ME GO, AND GETTING NOWHERE!!!! I use the cell phone and call Gigantor, to ask him to come home and let me out of my mother bunny humping car!!! How embarrassing is that??? Of course he starts laughing so hard he fell over, then he told everyone within a 10 block radius about it. Needless to say, that sorta ticked me off. So...I cranked that arm, felt a very sharp pain in my elbow, and a pop, and ignored it and opened that stupid as latch from the outside. I'm out of the suburban, I've done kicked the tires and called it every name in the book... Now I'm on some anti inflamitories, and ice on the elbow to see if the throbbing goes down. hehehehe Lets just say even though I'm out, I think the score is Suburban-1 Angry fat woman-0...this afternoon I'm taking the shotgun, the bitch better let me out.

Have a great, locked in your car free, Thursday everyone!!!

Can I Sleep Yet?

Boy howdy what a busy weekend.
Friday we went and seen the premier of Eragon. OMG it was soooooo awesome!!!! Now it was a great movie all it's own, but it was so much better if you have read the book, and read the 2nd book, Eldest. Can't wait for the third book in the trilogy. I hope they make more movies. Only thing you have to remember is they crammed a whole huge, wonderful book into an hour and a half. So...yeah it was missing some stuff.

Kiddo's friend Big J stayed the night Friday. I was amazed, they went right to sleep at about 10. No fighting for 2 hours.

Saturday, me and Gigantor went and signed up for cell phones and got them.
We delivered some Christmas cards.
Went and seen his parents.
Checked the mail.
Dropped Big J and Kiddo off at his house. (they were gonna watch him so we could go shop)
Went and got gas in the burban.
Went to Walmart and finished our Christmas shopping.
Went and got Kiddo.
Went and got Gigantors parents.
Went to the Parade of Lights on main street.
Took his parents home and unloaded their truck for them.
Went to taco bell, cuz I'll be dammed if I cook after all that.
And didn't get back home till 7:30 since we left in the morning.

Today...was almost as busy.
Got up and helped Kiddo make some goodie bags for his party on Thursday. (we put Christmas straws, pencils, candy canes and some candies in them) Then I tied every fricken one with ribbon and made it twirlie. Only cuz Kiddo asked.
Then I worked on some wrapping, and Avon stuff.
Gigantor went up to his parents and dug a water line up so the plumber could work on it.
Then he went and laid a gravel walk/path for Captain Daddy.
Then he ran to the grocery store.
And we cleaned some pet cages.

I was asked by Cookie Monster who Uncle House Elf was. Okay...well, my sister and I don't give out names online. To many years of being in a law enforcement family, and seeing to many horrid things. So for reference.
Burfica = me
Alekx = my sister (who used to blog but doesn't have time anymore)
Gigantor = my husband (cuz he's a fricken giant. Wears size 15 ring size 14 shoes, a giant I tell ya)
House Elf = Alekx's husband (cuz he's short, and cute, so think of the house elf on Harry Potter)
Kiddo = my son (who is 10)
Captain Daddy = my daddy
In laws, or evil one's = Gigantors parents. hahaha j/k
Big J= Kiddo's best friend
Little Pixie= Big J's little sister
D= mine and Gigantor's demented twisted, wonderful friend
Goober= Big J and Little Pixies mom.

I think that is about all the people I regularly put up here. Just to clarify some of the confusion.

I'll try to post a couple times this week, but definatly read and comment I will. (did that just sound like yoda?) Have a great Monday all!!!

Go Orange!!!!

Wow what a great football season!!!! We didn't beat the Bills for first place, but boy did we make them work for it. We actually scored three touchdowns. The coach then bought all the kids pizza. The kids got a 2nd place certificate and medals. The medals are cool, have a football on them that spins.

That was the 2nd medal that Kiddo got that day. He did a walk for diabetes a month or so ago. He wanted to really do it cuz both his grandfathers have diabetes as does his Uncle House Elf. He raised the most money in the community, so they awarded him with a medal, a letter, some prizes and he was on t.v. for the morning announcements at school. He did that one other year with the Jump Rope For Hearts. He's one charity raising fool, let me tell ya.

I've been so dang busy past couple weeks, that I can't even function by the end of the day. Gigantor jumped all over me, said I would get sick or something. He finally asked my why I was making myself that busy, instead of relaxing a little. I sat long and hard and thought about it. And I know why I'm throwing myself into a busy tizzy. I miss my mom, I miss her really really bad right now. Christmas was one of her favorite times of the year...And this is gonna be the first one without her. Every time I slow down I start thinking about how much I miss her, and what she is missing out on. And two things happen. 1. I cry and cry, like for hours and 2. I start throwing this huge pity party that's all about me, myself and I. And let me tell ya. I'm just not into doing either one of those right now!!!! I know I need to cry or I'm going to make it worse. But for some reason this month, I'm beating the tears down with a stick. Matter of fact just writing this has made some of the tears start, so...It popped into my mind that I now have to go and get a bunch of shit done. See...there is that stick, now it's gonna beat them down.

Sorry I made the end of this post somewhat of a bummer.

Have a good Thursday everyone!!!!

Oh oh oh on a side note, WE ARE GOING TO THE PREMIER OF ERAGON TOMORROW!!!! I have only been waiting impatiently for this movie since I read the book and the 2nd book in the series almost a year ago. I am so excited I may pee a little. hehehehhee

2nd PLACE BABY!!!!

Kiddo had a football game last night. They were tough, their coach screamed and hollered and was a just a major pain. And yes!!!!!!!!! We beat the snot out of them!!! The misfit Bronco's kicked some major booty. That has guaranteed us 2nd place over all. On Wednesday we play the number one team. If we lose, we are still in 2nd. If we win, then we are tied for first, and it comes down to a count of all the points over the season!! I am so proud of those guys. They have worked their butts off and done it all just having major fun.

In other news.....My vortex bra, the one that has seemed to be hibernating for months. Has come back in full vengeance. I swear I don't know how that chit gets into my bra. It's not like I'm sticking my boobs somewhere they don't belong. I found a bunch of scotch tape in there the other day. Yes I was wrapping gifts, but I was wearing a high necked long sleeved shirt. So how did tape get in my bra. I thought it would be ribbon. Seeing as how I got all tangled up in the ribbon and instead of being smart and cutting my way out. I spent a fricken half hour untangling myself. hehehehehe

Captain daddy will be here soon to do his laundry, and I go visit with him. So..I'm gonna go wrap pressies while I visit. Have a great Tuesday everyone!!!

Week of Busy ness

Man it's been so darn busy this week. We had two football games. Yes yes we won!!!!!!!!!!!! The first one we stomped the heck out of them 36 to 12 hehehehe
The second one was to a team we lost to, our very first game matter of fact. Even the coach of that team was talking smack, saying "YOU BEAT THEM ONCE YOU CAN DO IT AGAIN" We beat them 25 to 23. hehehehe GO BRONCO'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All the little kids on our team were sorta sad, saying that alot of kids from other teams were giving them a hard time in school. Saying that they suck, and their team sucks, and they are in last place. The coach and Gigantor said to tell they "yeah well if we suck, how come we just moved into second place" WHOOOHOOO THEY ARE IN SECOND PLACE!!!!! We have two more games to play of the season. One of the teams beat us before, and one we beat. I hope our streak stays and we beat both of them. If we do, the kids are guarantee's at LEAST second place. And I'm so excited about this, not just cuz my kid is on the team. But this coach took all the "misfits" the "not real athletic" kids, and they are kicking some major butt!!!

I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping. Only thing I have left is maybe Gigantor a couple things. But I have basically nothing for his parents or my dad, they are so fricken hard to buy for. And I have to get stocking stuff. The little candies and games. I have three tiny things for my dad, and one thing for his parents. ugggghhhh

Now I have all the wrapping. I wrap everything for everyone but my own gifts. And Gigantor complains about that. I think if he complains this year, I'm gonna stick a candy cane up his nose!!!

I tried a new "peanut butter bar" recipe, and I'm making some southwest wraps for my Avon Christmas party tonight. I hope they have some good give aways. Holidays are always cool for that.

Okay I'm off to get more coffee, and eat my dam banana (blech) But I've had bad leg cramps so I'm trying to eat one a day. I used to love banana's till I got really really sick with one when I was pregnant, now it's hard as nails to eat one.

Hope you all have a great weekend!!!!

DAM YOU GERBIL!!!

DAM YOU GERBIL FOR DYING BEFORE YOUR LIFE EXPECTANCY WAS UP!!! Dam you for doing it around the holidays, and dam you for not doing it when Gigantor could take care of you, making me do the duty. Although I will say thank you for not doing it while the kiddo was here. Now I can break it to him more gently.

Of course it couldn't be one of his dam fish that have been alive for like 6 years. Fricken Fracken goldfish, you are supposed to die and be flushed within the first year you bastards!!!! NoOoOoOoo it's one of the gerbils that are supposed to live 3 to 5 years but only made it just over one.

Now of all things I worry about the other two gerbils. How dare you make me fret. hehehee

I was gonna update you all about my boring ass weekend, busy but boring. But that was more excitement this morning than my entire weekend. LOL I did watch a couple movies though. I watched See No Evil. That was pretty good. And I watched Tristan and Isolde, that was a pretty darn good movie.

Okay I'm off to eat some breakfast and call Gigantor and warn him that he will be on burial duty when he gets off work.

Hope you all have a good Monday, may none of your little cute rodents die on you.

Friday!!

In answer to a previous comment. It's American football. We call European football...us yanks call that soccer. hehehehehe

Speaking of football, his team played again on Wednesday. We STOMPED them. 28 to 12 The poor kids though were playing in 27 degree weather with a wind chill of about 19. I made Kiddo wear a sweat shirt, his coat, then his football shirt over all that. He had his hat and his hood on. I can't let him wear gloves. He handles the ball alot, being the center, so he has to be able to feel it.

Today I went and got my nails done again. Red and Green sparklies with Christmas decals on them.

I gotta tell you something I found very very funny the other day. Just goes to show you that not everyone has heard "popular" sayings. (at least it was funny to me)
A bunch of us (friends, and Alekx who is family) were in Pogo playing a game, and chatting. One of the people was complaining. So I piped up with one of my most popular sayings that I use all the time and I said. Oh just put your big girl panties on and deal!!! (if some of you haven't heard this before, basicly it means "stop whining, grow up, and deal with the situation") I didn't realize this guy in the room had never heard of it. (the saying) So we are all in another game, and his score was low, and I go dr??? What you doing way down there?? He says, "I'm trying to get my fat chick pants on." Now I spit water all over my screen when he said that, cuz I realized he had no idea what that saying meant. Although a couple other people that were on the hefty side got offended cuz he was saying fat chick pants. We then spent the next half hour laughing at him and trying to explain the saying. He was certain it was some inside joke about heavy girls that he didn't get. hehehehe

Okay so maybe it's just funny to me.

I'm gonna go make the gerbils stop staring at me.

Have a good weekend everyone!!!

Did You Ever???

Did you ever have one of those days where your going to throw the phone across the room?? Not just throw it across the room, but throw it right at your husband, hitting him in the head. Then picking it up and bashing him over and over again in the head until he stops moving?? No?? Maybe it's just me. I swear why do men pick the time to fight with you when you are pms ing really bad???

I have received no less than 8 phone calls and had to make 6 myself in the past hour. All the straighten out my son's lunch ticket, and to straighten out the idiot who was supposed to fix Captain Daddy's heater, and to fight with the husband about something he should be doing but wants me to do.

I'm now waiting for D to show up with more stories. I finished typing and printing out 12 of his short stories. Some needed some major fixing. The man is brilliant with his imagination and story telling, except....he can't think of a single name for anyone. Like if a guy is a scribe, his name is scribe. Or if they are a warrior their name is warrior. So...he gave me free reign to name the characters.

On a side note, Kiddo's football team (Bronco's) slaughtered the other team (Falcons) on Monday. Kiddo took a few kids out himself. He's not fast or athletic, but he's built like a tank, and intimidating. He's bummed it's only flag football and not tackle. hehehehe

Well...I'm off to eat my pop tarts. Have a good Wednesday everyone!!!

Survived

I'm hoping you all survived your long holiday weekend. We survived. We had a good thanksgiving day, but the inlaws did stay to long. hehehehe By 9 Thursday night I was ready for everybody to go home, and I wanted to go to bed.

I've been battling a sore throat all dam weekend. It's not getting any worse thank goodness, but it's not getting any better either.

We didn't get all I like to get done over this long weekend. Part of it due to Gigantor part of it due to inlaws. So...He's in trouble and now has to help me do it all after work each day. And...we have two football games this week.

I don't know why but I am so dang tired. More tired than usual. Of course I laid down to go to sleep at about midnight thirty last night and I couldn't sleep. At about 2 I finally fell asleep. I woke up with Gigantors alarm at 5. Kicked him out of bed at 5:20 because he kept hitting snooze and it kept waking me up. I didn't fall back asleep until 6:30, and boy was it a good sleep. Only to be rudely awakened by my alarm and my son informing me that I had to be up at 6:45 or else I wouldn't get him to school in time. grrrrrrr I hate it when you fall into an excellent sleep and have to get up just right after.

I of course tried to sleep in a couple of the days over this long weekend. To get some rest and maybe get rid of that sore throat. I don't know what it is, but every time I "need" to sleep in. Gigantor has to pick a fight with the Kiddo. I don't mean small fight, I mean ends up yelling and threatening, and him acting like a huge ass (cuz he acts 3, gigantor not the kid) and then the kid crying, and, more yelling and trying to blame it on me sleeping. Till I finally get up and beat them both.

Although on Saturday, the Kiddo did make one horrid wrong move. They left to go get Christmas stuff from up at our shed, which is in our other yard. And I fell asleep on the couch. I was awakened by Kiddo running in saying Gigantor was a big jerk, and Gigantor yelling at him to shut up. And then it happened. What no kid should ever ever do. As Gigantor is walking back out of the house, the kiddo snaps. "Why don't you make me" Now I don't care who you are, you don't say that to one of your parents when they have told you to do something. I heard Gigantor screech to a halt and come charging back, he grabbed him, swung him around and smacked his ass. Just once, but enough to wake up the dead. Even though it was the right thing to do, again it was lovely to be woken up by those two fighting. sheesh.

Okay I'm gonna go drink my coffee and eat my multi berry pop tart. hehehehe

Have a good Monday everyone!!!

My Wish

Just want to wish every one a very HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

May your turkey be juicy, your gravy have no lumps, your yams be sweet, and your pie be piled high with whip cream!!!!!!!!!!!!

Monday?????

I shaved my fricken eyebrow off. Not meaning to mind you. I was trimming my eyebrows, with one of those tiny little personal trimmers. (note: I have those old man bushy eyebrows) And I put the little guard on it so it wouldn't cut so short. Well this little trimmer is cranky, and the guard DIDN'T WORK!!! So..I get half way done with one eyebrow and realize, well nice it's gone, not a little short, but down to the skin gone. Well...after you do half of one, you are pretty committed, so I just had to shave the rest of them off. Now most women would be like. Oh well, I have eyebrow pencil, I can draw one in. As you remember me saying. I have thick, dark eyebrows. I don't now nor ever have needed eyebrow pencil, so I don't have any. I just got a bald brow line. hehehehhee

On Saturday we did all our big "Thanksgiving" shopping. We are in the store, and I guess I didn't notice that the leg of this cart was like bent in. Well I turned around to talk to Gigantor about turkeys, and was turning the cart, and the son of a bitch fell on it's side. Yeah!! And when it flipped over, the handle slammed me right in the spine of my lower back. The same spine and lower back that gives me so much problems and will incapacitate me at times. Man that shit hurt. I should have dropped to the ground and threatened the store. But I'm not into those stupid fake lawsuits. Oh well.

In other news. When one of those colored fruit flavored mini marshmallows (remember those) is shot through a marshmallow gun at high speed, one should duck. Not watch the confection flying straight through the air at a high rate of speed, headed straight for your open eye. You should close your eye, you should not let the sugary confection shoot your right in your open eyeball. It will result in lots of screaming, and crying, and rubbing of your eye, and whimpering. Yeah yeah I know, Gigantor is such a baby. Stupid man shoulda shut his eye. hehehe

Have a good Monday everyone!!!!

Stop Poking Me

Me and Captain Daddy went and got our flu shots this morning. I was told I needed one cuz I got the flu last year. Let me tell you it was so miserable I don't want to do that again. hehehee

As soon as Gigantor gets home from work, we are gonna go shop our asses off for all the thanksgiving stuff. I want to get done so we can get this pig sty house cleaned for everyone coming over. Plus I like to put up Christmas decorations the weekend after Thanksgiving.

Gigantor got a free turkey from work. 17lb turkey. They brought one out for all the guys. I swear this new job is such a blessing. He has gotten more stuff paid for and more freebies in the 6 months his been there, than he did in the entire 12 years he worked at the other place. In 12 years, he got no retirement, crap ass insurance, 1 tiny pocket knife, 2 t-shirts, 1 sweat shirt and one jacket.
In 6 months he's gotten. Work boots, coveralls, 6 t-shirts, 2 polo shirts, 3 sweat shirts, 3 hats, a reversible winter coat, and a turkey.

Gigantor also went down to the Ford dealer, cuz we got a flyer in the mail that said you would get a free turkey if you test drove a vehicle. He decided he wanted another free turkey. hehehehe After he test drove they didn't give a free turkey, they gave a 10 dollar walmart card. That would be one very very small ass turkey from walmart. That's one thing about walmart I don't like. None of their meat is decently priced. I am not paying 4 dollars a pound for hamburgers, or your stupid 2 to 4 dollars a pound for chicken and turkey. Idiots. I will go to one of our two other grocery stores and get the stuff on sale. Bashas has turkeys for .47 cents a pound. In your eye walmart!!!! I refuse to buy meat from walmart.

Well I could ramble on and on about a lot of stuff that doesn't mean a dam thing. But I think I will go eat Breakfast and get my butt to the stores.

Have a good weekend everyone!!!

GOOOOOOOOO BRONCO'S!!!!!!!!

Kiddo's football team (Bronco's) is doing so well. They have played 4 games. Won two of them. The two they lost was only by 1 pt. grrrrrrrrrrr lol

He has an awesome coach that wants to teach them the plays and proper way to do it. And doesn't really mind if they lose, as long as they have fun. But man...some of these kids sports coaches are something else. They have been screaming, and yelling and accusing the other teams kids of stuff. So loud that you can hear them across the field. And some of the parents?? ahhhh Give me a gun to shoot them all. One got into a major argument with the referee. The referee just said, well I'll take this shirt off and you can do it from now on. The ref, said "That's the rules, if you don't like it, take it up with the city sports director." They are national rules, just get the frick over yourselves people. Not like it would have helped, it would have given them 2 pts and we beat them by 10.

I'm in a little better state of mind than the other day. I was able to find three of the things I couldn't before. And that is good, cuz two of them were pressies from Santa. I'm still highly disappointed about the one place though.

I'm definatly gonna have to guzzle me some coffee today. I've had the hardest time waking up. But then again, I've got another bad bad case of insomnia. blaaaahhhh

Well....I'm boring, and don't have much else to say. I'll go see if I can be smart assy on your blogs. hehehehe
Happy Thursday all!!!!

Irritated as bad as Diaper Rash

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr How come every time you try to order something online (with a catalog in front of you) It says no such item?????

Or or or How come you get a new catalog in the mail and the very next day when you try to order stuff it says it's out of stock?????


Sometimes I hate companies, and the internet, and the sun, and waking up, and mutant dust bunnies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh

Okay gonna go beat my head on the wall a while.

Balloons, Fires, and Football

Well the guys did get to go up in a hot air balloon, not on Saturday but on Sunday they went. They almost chickened out. Being as moments before they were going to inflate their balloon, another balloon, started having problems. Touched down a couple times, then touched down and threw two people out, one of them being the pilot. As the two people tumbled out, the balloon shot 200 feet up in the air in about 2 seconds. As it shot up in the air, it caught fire. And the whole thing came down in a burning mass. Luckily with all the passengers, kids included, they only had on minor injury.

But....that scared Kiddo about half to death, and he didn't want to go for a ride after that. Captain Bill (the pilot of their balloon) went and talked to kiddo for quite a while, and Kiddo and Gigantor then went up for an hour or so. 12,000 feet up, couple miles all around our town, and the surrounding area. Fun stuff!!

Football season has started in town. Which Kiddo is doing. It's flag football for his age group. He is on the Bronco's GOOOOOOOOO BRONCO'SSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

They had their first game on Monday. They didn't get skunked, but they did lose. The little girl on the other team ran faster than lightning man. hehehehe They play again tonight. Hope they do a little better. Oh man, first game and kiddo lost his dam mouth guard. I think each football season I have to buy like 6 or 7 of those dam things. Thank god I haven't invested in the custom made one's yet. Those are a couple hundred bucks, and stupid kid would have lost it already.

Okay well I'm gonna go order some boots for Captain Daddy. I'm gonna try to catch up on reading blogs as well.

Happy Hump Day to all!!!

Busy ass week

God it's been a busy ass week. With football practices, Halloween, taekwondo, delivering avon, kiddo's play (today), getting my nails done (tomorrow) and a meeting (tomorrow). I am ready for a nap after all that, but Saturday is gonna be so much worse.

This three days of the weekend we have a balloon regatta. They fly every day. On Saturday mornings, the locals can go out to their landing site and help them pack up. That gets them some freebies sometimes. So after Gigantor and kiddo do that in the morning. We are going to go to a huge craft fair this town holds called Christmas in November. Then there is a small one at one of the churches. A harvest craft fair. I would then like to take the kids to see the Matinee. It's supposed to be Santa Clause 3. After that gets out, and street fair will be started in some parking lots along main street. At 4 main street will be shut down for the charity ball roll. People purchase a plastic ball for 10 bucks (goes to local families, the money raised) They go to the top of main street (it's on a good sized hill), put all the balls in a cement truck, roll them around, then dump them out. The ball that reaches the end of main street first wins. The person that purchased that ball, wins some sort of big prize. I think it's half the money raised.

As the sun starts setting, they re close main street, and the people with their balloons drive up. As it gets dark, they inflate them, and periodically do the gas in them so that it creates a glow. That last for about 2 hours. People can walk up and down main street to see the 50 balloons displayed, to talk to the pilots, and to get trading cards from them.

let me tell ya I'm gonna be one dead mama come Saturday night.

I know it's only Thursday, but with everything going on, I don't see me posting till after the weekend. Have a great weekend everyone!!!!

TRICK OR TREAT!!

Happy Halloween!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my little guy is going at a grim reaper/crypt keeper/vampire zombie. It's sorta a mixture of them all. Hope you all have a fun and safe Halloween.


For a great card, click HERE

But for some really great fun, as good as the cat bowling click HERE

Enjoy!!!!

No Tackle WHAT??

Kiddo finally got his football team. He's on the Broncos. yayyyyyyyyy I don't like that they just told them the team, and they start games next Monday. Doesn't leave alot of time for practice. Oh well...he has a good coach. And it's not tackle football. It's flag football. But we think some of the rules are ridiculous. I mean it's more of a game of keep away or tag. You aren't allowed to dive for the flag. If there is a fumble the ball just turns over to other team, no dog pile on the ball. Darn it.

I got the computer most the way up and running. I downloaded firefox. OMG I love it compared to explorer. It actually goes much faster, I love the tabs. And I don't have some little annoying things I can't get off of explorer.

I started a league with a couple friends. I like to go play games in pogo. Well you can go to this other site and get on leagues. Leagues run tournaments in pogo games. Alot of technical mumbo jumbo. But it's free and it's all fun. So...anyhow we started one, and I've been dinking with the pages, trying to find out how to put the graphics and other stuff on there. I've figured a couple things out. One with help of my sister. hehehehe

Not much else going on. Gonna go get some coffee. Have a good Monday Everyone

Oh for some halloween fun Go HERE

WTF????????

Go to parent teacher conferences, get great news. Then my computer crashes. I've had it in the computer e.r. for two days. Got it back and have had to upload everything again. What a shit storm.

I really really need a new computer or new hard drive. ugggghhhhhh
