Boys suck


Grrrrrrrrrrrrr boys suck. That child of mine is gonna drive me to drink. Fuck a duck.

At parent teacher his science teacher said something about science experiments before Christmas. So...I was thinking in December. But she said the paper work for it and "proposals" had to be done the month before.

I have been asking him every 3rd day for a week or so, and he kept saying, "I don't know anything about it"

Then for the past week I've been asking him every day about it, and he kept doing the "I dunno" So I yelled at him hard yesterday, told him he better find the fuck out today or he was in big trouble.

He comes home today and announces, that he needs to have a weeks worth of his experiment and his journal about it done, and we have to start tonight. I'm like "what???!!!" I go "when is it due" he tells me it's due Monday.

I start screaming THAT'S NOT A WEEKS WORTH, WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME BEFORE???

He goes, oh well we will have 4 days worth. All not caring and all. I was a bit ticked. So...I sent Gigantor to the store to pick stuff up, and I made Kiddo go with him, he was pissed, but let me tell you I can be much more scarier than him when I'm pissed. hehehehehe

I was really really ticked about it, cuz Gigantor doesn't get his first paycheck for 4 weeks. I can't pay bills the end of this month. And we need to eat still. And AND!!! They want 28 fricken bucks up front for us to go to the company christmas party. I told Gigantor to march his happy ass in there and say very loudly I CAN'T CUZ YOU ARE HOLDING MY PAYCHECK FOR FOUR MOTHER HUMPING WEEKS!!!!!

Okay I'm also pissy at Gigantor. I was complaining about how he always wants to go to sleep instead of get lucky at night. He told me, you can wake me up anytime, I will never say no. So...yeah I woke him up last night, and he got all pissy and told me to leave him alone so he could sleep.

So...yeah I'm grumpy, but now that bastard isn't gonna get it for fricken ever!!!!!!! I'm that pissy right now.

Hope you all had a better tuesday.

happy science fairing.

What?? Huh?? who?? how??

Oh man what a weekend. Some week we are gonna have a truly lazy weekend, not chalked full of shit to do. hahaahahaha yeah right.

It's gonna take us a few weeks to get used to Gigantor being off three days. Wow, it was weird.

Friday lets break down what both of us did.

G--got up and got Kiddo up and made his lunch
me--slept in
G--played a half hour on computer
me--still sleeping
G--went to true value picked up some stuff he needed for the day
me--zzzz
G--went to napa to see if they knew what the noise his truck was making
me--Zzzz
G--went to B&B Repair to ask about the truck noise
me--Snort...ZZZZZ
G--came in and woke me up nice by rubbing my leg (my legs hurt me all the time and if he rubs the lymphadema in the morning it is better all day)
Me--blink blink
G--Let me go get some breakfast/lunch whatever
Me--got up went pee and got dressed
G--went to jack in the box
me--Put a tape in to watch
G--came back sat on the bed with me and ate, we watched the tape.
G--went outside to start putting slats on the fence
me--dinked on the computer
G--came in and fixed the crack in the bathtub, helped me hang up more of that upper case living stuff, rubbed my back.
Kiddo came home from school
Me--got some mail/packages ready to mail
G--mailed them
Then we made dinner and watched a movie.

Saturday
Italic

G--Got kiddo up and started working on the fence
me--snoozing again
G--came in and woke me up again.
me-getting dressed and stuff.
Captain daddy shows up and since we aren't in the living room he's pissed the fuck off, so Gigantor has to chase him down outside. Captain daddy saying some shit as we aren't even fucking up. Gigantor saying "Bullshit we have been working on the fence all morning, and if we want to sleep in on our day off that's our fucking business" Captain daddy stuttering then saying he will come in and say hi to everyone then.
yeah that was tense.

Captain daddy came in and decided to make up for it, and bought us lunch. We watched Kung fu Panda with him cuz he bought it. Gigantor did a bit more fence work. He got 5 and a half sections with all the slats up. I think that's right about half.

Sunday he was a lazy lump. He told me he was gonna do more fence work. Then he ran down to walmart and grabbed some pants that Captain Daddy paid for. Kiddo two pair and him two pair, then he came home and put the roast in the crock pot. Then he did NOTHING. He went and helped uncle for 15 minutes, but then nothing. I asked him, I said " so you just sorta petered out or what?" he just shrugged.

I think it was way to weird for him to have three days in a row off. He might have over done it, and had to rest a bit.

Okay I don't know if it will show up on the actual post, but this dam thing italisized the words, and no matter what I clicked on I could not get it to go back right, so we will see how it shows up when I post this.

Hope you all had a good weekend, and have an even better Monday. hahahaha

A letter day


My friend Libby, gave me a letter to think up 10 things I love about it....She gave me the letter G. so lets see if I can do it. hehehehe

I guess Number one would have to be

1. Gigantor --- I love my Gigantor, he's the best giant in the whole world. I may get mad at him sometimes, but he is one of the rare "good guys" out there.

2. Granola--I like granola bars, and I wish I could find loose granola to put on my yogurt and stuff, it's nummy.

3. Green-- I love the color green. All shades of it. Light to darkest, mixed with yellow or blue. Love them all

4. Grand Canyon--OoOO I love the grand canyon, I love living in the grand canyon state.

5. Glen Canyon Dam--Where my dad and hubby both work. It's pretty awesome, I used to go and walk through it at least once a week. Now it's guided tours, and only once a day.

6. Grapes--I love grape soda, sorta like grape juice. Sorta like grapes to eat, but love them in salads.

7. Giggles--I love when my kid and other kids get the giggles, but a good old giggle fit myself does me wonders.

8. Gizmo--I always wanted one for my very own. I loved the Gremlins movie, and Gizmo is my favorite.

9. Grease--I love the grease musicals. Both of them. But hell I love musicals in general, but both of those are pretty fun.

10. Ghost Hunters--that is like my favoritest show now a days. Might be something different in a few years, but that's it for now.

Okay that's 10, I probably could have gone on with a few more. Like Growth and Grief, yes even grief--without the steps of it, I wouldn't be able to function.

So....thanks Libby, G is not easy, had to think about that one. hehehehehe

Hump Day....already???

Oh man it's hard to believe it's Wednesday already. It felt really weird, cuz Kiddo was off school past 4 days, and Gigantor was home yesterday.

He's never had veterans day off. EVER. We got up and took him up to the park, so he could line up with the VFW for the parade. He was color guard, so carried a gun on the right hand side of the american flag.

It was touching, cuz as the veterans came walking down the street, some lady started screaming thank you and thank you so much at them, then the whole crowd went wild, clapping and screaming thank you and god bless you. It was very touching. Brings tears to my eyes just thinking of it now.

Every veterans day parade here we have a float that is dedicated to the Navajo Code Talkers. Being that we live 1/2 mile from the reservation and this town is probably 50 to 60% navajo anyway. Every year they would have a float, with some code talkers on it.

It was kinda sad, this year it was a float, with pictures of the code talkers and mostly their daughters holding up the pictures. I'm really not sure if any are living anymore, but if they are, they sure are getting up there. God bless all of them too.

Some guy did up his truck and trailer with poster boards all over it. On each one was the branch of service and name of anyone one in this community that has and still is serving for our country. That was very very nice.

After the parade we got some lunch and watched a movie off the halmark channel, so we ended up crying. uggghhh. Then we went and delivered my avon and books and ran to the store.

Gigantor had a good time his first day of work on Monday. He thinks he is going to like it there alot. They told him if he is on time, works hard, does what he's supposed to (which is just how Gigantor is anyway) That they could see him making 30 dollars or more an hour within 5 or 6 years. OMG that would be so dam nice.

This morning, I was in the bathroom getting ready to get dressed, and kiddo was out here eating his cereal, when he comes in hollaring. I CUT MYSELF, OH MY GOD I CUT MYSELF.

I'm like what?? How can you cut yourself eating cereal?? He shows me his hand and his finger is bleeding pretty dam bad. We wash it out, and put pressure on it, and I couldn't find any dam fingertip band aids. Come to think of it, I could barely find any band aids, so Gigantor was in trouble (it's his job to keep stock of that, him being the E.M.T. and all) So...I end up putting medicine and a couple bandages on it, just to get it covered and hope they stay on.

I then go, how the hell could you cut yourself eating cereal??

Well my son has a habit of putting his hands between the cushions of the couch, and he said he did that and he found a knife. I'm like A KNIFE???

me--like a kitchen knife from dinner last night (thinking Gigantor dropped his)

kiddo--No it's a camoflage knife.

me--how the hell did a camo knife get in the couch?? Like a pocket knife?

kiddo--no it's a big camo knife.

I was trying to think if Gigantor went hiking or anything with his bowie knife on him and it could have fallen. I was fuming pissed. I got kiddo to bring me the knife.

I can't be mad at Gigantor. it's a very large, very sharp, marine corps pocket knife. Which means it's my dads. He sits in that spot and opens his packages that come in the mail. This makes about the 4th time he has forgotten his knife is open and loses it. He sets it on his lap while he's going through the packages. Every other time, he has stood up and it's fallen on the floor, and he realizes he has forgotten it.

I'm a little ticked it was in the couch and cut my son. I'm even more worried, that he keeps forgetting stuff like that. I don't even know how to approach him about all of this. Stubborn old fool. I'm gonna have to think a day or two on it, and try.

Wish me luck. hahahahaha

Hope you all have a great Wednesday.

Dam I was longwinded today. hahahahaha

Monday---What????

OMG that picture cracks me the hell up. Makes you wonder who threw the toy out there.

Anyhow, we had a busy weekend. I got my avon in on Friday, so we did that all up and got it ready.

Saturday, Gigantor got up and did some dishes, while I slept in a tiny bit. I got up, and we went and got the nephew, and made some lunch. We ate some lunch and watched a program we recorded. Then we had to go...we went to the matinee. Watched Madagascar 2. Oh my gosh it was so dang funny!!!!

After the movie we went down to the grocery store and did a bit of shopping.

Came home and made biscuits and gravy for dinner and watched Journey to the Center of the Earth.

That was a pretty good movie too.

Sunday Gigantor and Kiddo and the Nephew went up to the middle school. They played some wall ball. Played with the Foxtail. And played some football. Came home and got me up, then Gigantor took nephew home and went to pick us up a bit of lunch. Captain Daddy showed up and acted grumpy.

We ate lunch and Gigantor ran down to walmart cuz we were out of bird food, and running out of stuff for lunches. Captain Daddy finally left. And I got the house to warm and fell asleep on the couch. Couldn't wake myself up for nothing. hehehehe

Gigantor came home and should have woke me up, but he let me sleep. I woke up and it was almost dinner time. Gigantor was preping it.

So...we watched Get Smart and Speed Racer with dinner. Both of those were pretty good. I like Speed Racer more than I thought I would.

And now today. Kiddo has today and tomorrow off of school. So...Skinny K is over today playing with Kiddo. Captain daddy showed up again. And Gigantor is working on his first day at the Dam. So far so good. hehehehehe

Me...I need another nap. hahahahaha

Okay that was a boring as hell weekend, so I'm gonna go finish being boring. hehehehe

Have a good Monday everyone!!!

Happy Veterans Day if I don't make it back on tomorrow!!!!!

Random Bull Sheeeee iiiiiiittttt

Well I'm random today, so what else is new??

My butt feels a bit better. Although last night in the dark, we are in bed, and gigantor grabs a flashlight, and rolls me on my side. I say what the hell, and he told me he had to check my butt bruise. So he checked it, then started poking the bruise. The BRAT!!!

We have lost a netflix movie. We got one last night, and have looked all over the house, and in all the trash cans, can not find the dam movie. I'm so pissed off.

Visited with Captain Daddy today. He gave me 50 bucks to get kiddo some pants, because.

Got a phone call from kiddo asking about pants, cuz apparently he ripped the crotch of the one's he was wearing. He said not bad, so I made him suffer the day with them.

I had started reading Twilight to Kiddo before the movie comes out. I read over 50 pages, and my throat hurt so bad. So...today I had him and Gigantor go to the library and get it on audio book.

Saturday the nephew is coming over to play then we are taking the boys to the matinee to see Madagascar 2.

Kiddo has a 4 day weekend. They are off on Tuesday for veterans day, and the teachers are taking Monday as a rest day for them. So....he gets Sat, Sun, Mon and Tues off. That will be nice.

Gigantor starts his new job on Monday. whooooohooooo

Okay I'm off to tear up more of this house looking for that dam movie.

Have a good Friday everyone!!!!

My ASS!!!!!!!!!!!


Oh my godddddddddddddd my ass hurts!!! It feels like a golf ball is stuck in my ass!!!!

Now let me explain before you hork your coffee all over your computer.

It's not what you think.

My husband took me and Captain Daddy to vote yesterday. When the dado unit goes, I end up sitting in the back. Which is very uncomfortable for me. Specially since my legs have been so sore and acting up lately.

I use a cane going in and out of the house, cuz the husband hasn't built steps or a hand rail yet (they are bricks stacked up) And I use it when I walk any kind of length, cuz I'm so unstable on my legs. If it's a short walk, I just use hubby's arm.

So...I struggled to get in the back, and to get out. Used the cane to go in and vote. I was the first one done out of us three, and I went back outside. Unlocked the suburban, put my cane in, sorta tossed it to the other side. Grabbed hold of the "oh shit" bars, and helped myself up, and struggled to get in the back seat.

When I sat down, I guess the cane didn't make it over far enough, and I sat on the it. On the top end of it, the curvy part, that was stuck up in the air. Right on my right butt cheek.

It hurt really bad, brought tears to my eyes. But it was okay.

Later that night when I was sitting in the couch, it felt like when your couch breaks down and a piece of wood is poking you. Well I was getting mad, cuz I've been yelling at the husband, son and his friends for flopping in that part of the couch, so I thought they broke my seat, ya know.

Well I sat forward so I could get up and the pain was sharp. I was like "What the hell???"

When I went to bed it really hurt. Had Gigantor look at my right butt cheek. From sitting on that dam cane, I have a big old bruise, and it feels like I have a golf ball in my butt cheek. Very uncomfortable to sit. grrrrrrr

So...when I felt like some of us got screwed up the ass with some of the voting decisions (couple propositions here that were just assnine passed) I didn't know I would really feel pain in my ass for a few days. hahahahahaha

Okay I hope you all have a better Wednesday. Hope your asses aren't to sore.

Halloween Photo's

Well we had a blast on halloween. We went to my aunt and uncles and Kiddo got done up in a very scary mask, with black clothes and gloves on. He scared the crap out of a bunch of kids, and even a few adults.

I told him he couldn't scare the real tiny kids, so he was doing funny dances and pretending to be scared of princesses. But his mask was just so freaky it didn't matter, he scared the beejeebees out of people.

Gigantor and the uncle strung up a rubber spider in the tree. In the part that was right over the sidewalk, then they ran fishing line to the chair where uncle could control it. As people walked and were looking at kiddo a bit scared, he was dropping the spider on them.

OMG it was the funniest thing. The adults were more scared of the spider than the kids. We had a great time.

Then aunt had made up about 30 elk taco's. homemade taco shells and all, and she made some home made spanish rice and home made salsa. After we were all done laughing our butts off, we ate and ate.

Usually Halloween is the turning point here, and it's dang cold, but it was warm, I wore a t-shirt and didn't even need a coat. Kiddo was hot in his costume.

I'll have to update you all on the weekend next post, this one is gonna be long enough.


Getting Kiddo ready. You can see my arm and one of the bowls of candy. He looked so dang scary and my kid really isn't like that. It was fun though.

We were armed with both of these bowls heaping full, had another bowl inside, and about 8 more bags of candy. Usually there on elm street, there are so many kids you can't keep enough candy, but this year it was really slow. I got to where I was handing out big handfulls of the stuff towards the end. And we still have a few bags left over.
Kiddo did alot of leaning against the tree like this. Lots of people didn't know if he was real or not. Some police, the ambulance, and other locals drove by and gave him a double and tripple take. I've never seen another mask like this one out there, he sure was creepy looking.
Seee!!! The cute little pink puppy would not take her eyes off Kiddo, she knew he was gonna eat her up if she did. We had a hard time getting her to come closer and get her candy, she was scared of him. It was adorable.
Kiddo was laying down next to the tree, and that mom was trying to get her kids to touch him. (there was 3 moms, three dads, and about 7 kids in that group) Well the mom kept trying and kept trying and her kids were refusing. So...the mom goes, look I will touch him and he won't move cuz he's a statue. (she wanted kiddo to play along so he could scare the kids when they touched him) But she gets close, kneels down and touches him, and Kiddo throws his arms in her face like to grab her and screams RAAAARRRR. OMG that mom jumped so hard, everyone laughed so loud.

In this picture she was helping kiddo up, she wanted a picture of her and the kids with him. So...they line up for picture and Kiddo is giving her bunny ears. It was so funny.

As they were walking away, uncle dropped the spider in that mom's face, and she screamed like a little girl. We laughed and laughed, it was great. Her husband probably laughed the loudest. hahahahaha

Hope you all had a good Halloween. I'm gonna go shower and go to bed.

Happy Halloween


A very Happy Halloween to you all!!!!

I think it's a fun day. I love seeing the kids in their costumes.

This year, we aren't going trick or treating. Kiddo thinks he's to old for it. Instead we are going to my aunt and uncles. We don't get any kids over where we live. They live on Elm Street which is swamped each year. So...Kiddo wanted to dress up scary and pass out candy. That's what we are going to do over there.

I had thought I would buy us and aunt and uncle dinner, seeing as they were letting us hijack their house. But uncle said he was going to make some elk taco's. whooohoooo bonus!!!

The sky is filled with balloons this morning. It's the balloon regatta this weekend. Tomorrow I'm sure Gigantor and Kiddo are going to go out early and help people with their launches. They have done that before and ended up getting free rides. It's pretty cool, and they have tons of fun.

Then the street fair starts at 4 tomorrow afternoon. I'm hoping Big Johns Texas BBQ booth is up here. He smokes all his meat, it's soooo yummie. And at about 6, they close down main street and let the balloon people come set up. Right at about dark they start blowing up their balloons, and till 9 they do the "balloon glow"

You can walk up and down main street and talk to them. They let kids climb in the baskets, and pull the fire thingie, some of them have trading cards. Just a fun time all around. After the glow is over it's like freezing out. You wouldn't think so much of it, but with the glow, all that gas/fire going off, the entire main street gets warmed up. Then they stop and the cold bites right into you.

Anyhow that is our plans for tonight and tomorrow. Oh and I can't forget to record all night on Sci Fi channel. Ghost Hunters halloween special is on. whoooohooooo I love the ghost hunters.

anyhow....have a wonderful and safe Halloween, and have a good weekend everyone!!!!

Humpity Hump Day


I know this picture isn't this good, but I got my nails done today. Thanksgiving nails. They are goldish, maroon, and dark green all metallic looking. Some are in criss crosses, some done as leaves and a couple flowers.

Not much has been going on. Nobody has been doing anything aweful to the kid. Gigantor has been fine at work and with his co workers. I've not done anything but go get my nails done. hehehehe

So.....I'll leave you with a halloween goodie, and a yummie meatloaf recipe.

This is the snarkiest skeleton that cuts you down, it's so dang funny. Go here for halloween fun.

We've made twice now this yummy bbq meatloaf. Try it it's good, it's even better in sandwiches a day or two later. hehehhee

2lb ground beef or turkey
1 cup favorite bbq sauce
1 onion finely diced
1 red (or yellow or orange) bell pepper finely diced
2 cloves garlic finely diced
1 to 2 tables spoons warchester sauce (however you spell it)
1 large egg
2 cups bread crumbs
favorite seasonings

Saute up onion and pepper and garlic and set aside to cool a bit.

In bowl mix bbq sauce, Warchester sauce, egg, and seasonings. When well mixed add onion mixture and stir.

In another bowl have ground burger ready and add bbq mix on top, stir with hands. Add in bread crumbs one cup at a time, to get the texture you desire.

Form in loaf on baking sheet, or press into a pyrex baking dish (that's how we do it, we don't do it loaf shaped) Put in 350 degree oven for about an hour. 10 minutes from being done, but a little bit of bbq sauce on the top for a glaze.

It is so dang good people, and my son who REFUSES to eat those type of veggies, just loves it.

Anywhooo....go...enjoy your Wednesday!!!

Monday *insert groan here*

Well....thank god we weren't as busy on Sunday as Saturday. We put a movie in Saturday night, at bedtime. Thought we would watch about a half hour of it, turn it off and go to bed.

Yup....we watched the entire 2 1/2 hour movie. hahahaahaha We then slept in a bit. Gigantor slept till 10:30 I couldn't believe it. In the 15 1/2 years being married to him, I think he's slept that late once and it's cuz we got home from the hospital at 5 in the morning after being up all night with our son. So, yeah that was bizare.

But he has been hurting (hurt his leg) and so tired, I just let him sleep.

We picked up a couple things, went to the store, and watched a tape we recorded and a movie with dinner. We were lazy for the day. He deserved it though.

We are waiting till the end of the day to see what happened with that kid at school. I was told if he had another strike against him he was going to the "trailers"

Let me explain that. There are some moveable "trailers" out behind the middle school and high school. They are the worst of the worst disciplinary cases. I mean you have to screw up bad and alot of it to go there. What happens is you are UN ENROLLED from middle school. And re enrolled in a disiplinary kind of school (still through the public school disctrict) But you have an entire different file, and I think the police dept is informed on who is in them and the parents.

They have specific teachers and counselors, and CPS is called in. It's like one step above a juvenile detention place.

We were told if this kid had one more referal he was going into the "trailers". Can you imagine screwing up so bad in less than the first 9 weeks of school?? And you know his parents have been notified over and over again.

I told Gigantor that I didn't get that shit, because if I was called once, let alone twice....My kid would be so punished and not able to sit for a very long time. And he WOULD straighten his shit up. But it's apparent some of today's parents don't give a shit, might even be proud to have a "bad" kid.

So...just waiting till the end of the day to find out if he was sent there or not. I do know that Kiddo seemed "lighter" after talking to us and his teachers about it. I hope it helped him.

Alrighty I'm off to read you all.

Have a good Monday *insert groan here* everyone!!!!

Man I'm Tired


Man I am tired today. We have had a very busy few days.

We went to parent teacher conferences on Thursday. Kiddo is doing really well. Except every single teacher said the same thing, in the past couple weeks, his grades have dropped and he comes to class very withdrawn and trying to make himself as small as possible.

That was a big red flag, so we all decided that something has to be bugging him, and making him act that way. Upon questioning later he finally told us.

I guess there is a kid at school, that keeps calling him, please god excuse my language, calling him a "faggot" a "effing N*gg*r" And then this kid is going around calling his friends and family "Effing Jews" "Useless Jews" "Disgusting Jews" and they all should be dead.

Well if anyone knows my kid they know how sensitive he is, and he hates when someone does that not only to him but to others he loves or likes.

I had a talk with the school. I mean kids can find the "N" word anywhere, but to talk that kind of hate about a religion (which we aren't even jewish) that is a taught kind of hate, and a not right kind of thing.

So...that was the end of our week.

Gigantor did end up working today, to make life easier on a bunch of his coworkers that the boss was punishing because he wouldn't work. He came home and we were going out to do all we planned. When the "boss" tracked him down made him go back out for about an hour. We were in the dam suburban so ended up sitting and waiting for him.

Then we delivered some avon, went up to the fall festival and got funnel cakes, cotton candy for the kid, and cinnamon roasted pecans, cashews and almonds. We went a few more places delivering avon books, and were supposed to go to two grocery stores. But we were so dam tired and it was almost 5 in the evening, we scrubbed it and came home.

We ate one piece of chicken, we were to dam full from the funnel cakes. And we fell asleep on the couch. Now I'm up dinking around till I can get the kid to sleep. I guess we are going grocery shopping tomorrow. ugggghhhhh

Well I think I'm gonna go have a cup of hot tea and go to bed.

Hope you all have a good rest of the weekend.

No Theme


My post has no theme today, just thoughts, and little goings on.

I love that picture, to cute, looks like he ate a lemon.

Parent teacher conferences tomorrow, Gigantor took the day off. That will be good, get it all done and out of the way. Kiddo has a half day, then Conferences are 1 till 4 in the gym. They set up tables with the teachers names above them and you walk around and sit at each one and talk to them.

I did get a little sick, not as bad as Gigantor, but I had nausea and bad stomach cramps on Monday night and Tuesday day.

Gigantor almost came to blows with his supervisor. His supervisor called on the day he was sick, and said, well since you didn't come to work, you have to work the weekend. Gigantor got back on Tuesday and asked him why, he said because other people would have to many hours. So....Gigantor went and looked at who was scheduled for the weekend. Guess who it was??? Yup the supervisor, that is salary so it doesn't matter what hours he works.

Well Gigantor confronted him, it got down to how in almost 3 years, this is the 2nd sick day Gigantor has every taken, and in 3 years, Gigantor has never told the boss no on any weekend. Even if we have plans, he makes me change them and he works. Well not this time. We have lots of plans, and Gigantor only has two weeks left there. So...him and the supervisor were yelling at each other, and the supervisor said he didn't care about Gigantor's plans they could fucking wait. His exact words. Which triggered my gentle giants temper. Not a good thing. Not at all.

It came down to Gigantor backing down the supervisor, and everyone watching. The supervisor ran in the big bosses office. (whom Gigantor had already talked too) And came out, stomped over to Gigantor and told him some other guy was gonna work the weekend. hahahahaha I love that my honey finally stood up to him.

I understand why he didn't all the rest the time, I mean he has this amazing work ethic and will do almost anything you ask of him. But with only two weeks left he was tired of being taken advantage of. And the two things that made him really not back down. Is when the supervisor said "your plans can fucking wait" and he said "You won't have to work weekends in your new job so least you can do is work this one"

Ummm yeah that pissed a giant off. Considering that when hired my giant was told he would only have to work one weekend a month, and for almost three years we were lucky if he got even one weekend off a month.

Man we have been the house of burnt food lately.

That new oven/stove I got for my birthday, we had to learn that anything that cooks inside it has to be set 25 degree's higher and go for the cooktime. But stuff on the stove top have to be much lower and less time. Been taking us a while. Lots of burn grilled cheese and pancakes and stuff.

Then the new microwave, I guess they cook hotter, cuz I keep burning the popcorn, the pot pies, exploding hot dogs. Man....I hope I get them all figured out by Thanksgiving, cuz I love to cook for holidays, and I cook a ton, and not to be over braggy but I'm dam good at it. hahahah

Oh I guess last random thing, a while back I said I would give you the cheesey chicken recipe, and then I promply forgot. Well let me give it to you now, cuz it's easy.

Cheesey Chicken

boneless skinless chicken breast and or thighs
favorite seasoning
two cans cheddar cheese soup
one can broccoli cheese soup
one can milk
(fresh onion or broccoli if you want but not necessary)
Any kind of pasta

In a bowl mix the soups, seasonings, and milk, whisk well till blended. (add broccoli and onions if your doing that)
Put chicken in a baking dish, pour soup mixture over chicken. Cover and cook at 350 for at least 1 hour. If you uncover, make sure you put a cookie sheet under it cuz it will bubble over.
Make pasta, serve chicken and sauce over pasta.

There ya go, easy peasy, and my kid loves it too.

Okay I'm off to do god only knows what.

Have a good Wednesday everyone!!!!

Weekend of Massive Exhaustion


Oh my gosh we are exhausted this weekend. Friday, Kiddo had to be up to the high school at 4:30. His drum line was going to play in the football games half time. Gigantor went, and took video for me. It was 4:30 till 9, and I just can't do that much walking or standing.

Saturday, Gigantor got up at 7 and went outside and started working on that fence. Kiddo went out and helped him. About 8, Big J, (kiddo's friend) came over to help. And another friend of Gigantors came over for about an hour. At about noon Big J's dad came over and helped them. They got all the holes dug, and posts set in with cement.

When he hobbled in it was a bit after 4. He had been working non stop with just a 20 minute break for lunch.

I then reminded him we had to get our flu shots before the clinic closed, and he was supposed to go help with the V.F.W. thingie for an hour or so, and their thing was over at 5.

We ran up to the clinic, thought it wouldn't take long. Took till 4:55 to get our shots. We went zooming down to Walmart to help the V.F.W. And all we could really do is help them pack up, drive home and help unload.

We then delivered some avon stuff, forgot to get the mail, came home and realized it was after 7 and we hadn't had dinner yet. Made some dinner, and felt just so exhausted.

Gigantor and Kiddo got up about 7 again, but didn't go outside till 8. Big J and his dad said they would come over and help today, but they never showed.

Gigantor came in a couple times looking bad, said his breakfast was just sitting on the bottom of his stomach in a knot.

Him and Kiddo got all the cross slats up, just need to put the main slats on now. But they came in at about 4 again. I went to the back bathroom, and Kiddo ran back to tell me that "dad was throwing up"

Just fricken great. Whenever anyone gets sick like that in this house, I hose it down with lysol, make everyone wash hands a million times, don't let anyone touch each other, and I still get the crap. I throw up so violently it scares everyone, and I really really don't want to get it.

So...he says he feels a bit better, and we sit down to dinner. Kiddo and I had roast, and Gigantor had soup. About 1/3 of the way through his soup he pushed it away and fell asleep.

I left him to sleep, cuz he looked like it was what he needed, so I started thinking maybe he just got to exhausted and felt sick from it. But then he got up and he's been sick a few more times. So...ummm yeah I'm probably gonna get it. I'm really not happy.

I know he's pretty sick, because he called his boss to say he wasn't coming in tomorrow. Gigantor has done that once in over 2 years being there.

So...ummm yeah that is our weekend breakdown. Pray I don't get it, it's so scary. ahhhhhhhhhh

Okay have a good Monday everyone!!!!

BUNNY BUTTS!!!!!


Don't ya just love cute, fuzzy, fluffy bunny butts??? hehehehehe

That is my dad's pet name for my son. Bunny Butt. lol

Okay gonna talk about my dog today. I didn't post about this earlier, it happened back when I was sick a few weeks ago.

We had a little issue with my pointer mix. My 13 year old dog. My old man.

Buster, he has had two surgeries on his back legs, so walks very stiff, he's losing teeth, he's going blind, and his ummm what's it called? The flap that closes off his air way or esophagus, well that flap isn't closing all the way anymore. So...he aspirates water sometimes, and we have to beat his lungs, and it makes him short of breath so he pants alot, and does get over heated easy. But as long as he's not in pain and can eat and walk, then he is gonna stick around. Yes we have to give him lots of meds, pain meds and joint meds.

Anyhow...back when I was getting over being sick. I was sitting on the couch in here in the living room. I heard Buster get up in the bedroom. Heard his collar, and him shake his head. Then I heard FWUMP. I thought to myself that one of the baskets of laundry fell over. (I had about 6 piled up in a pile in there, haven't folded since I was sick)

I wait for a minute or two and didn't hear the dog. I called him, didn't hear him. I thought, man maybe the basket fell over and trapped him in there, but I should hear him moving around.

I hollared "BUSTER YOU OKAY??" And I lean forward. I see my dog, collapsed, on his side, he had pee'd all over, and wasn't moving.

I thought he had fricken dropped dead. I get massive adrenaline rush and I look closer and see his side moving up and down, but he is not.

I call Gigantor screaming at him to get home, the dog collapsed and peed all over himself. I'm no where near strong enough to lift this dog, and with my leg/health issues, I couldn't even get on my knees by him.

But I go rushing in there anyway, calling his name. He lifts his head, rather confused, and looks at me like "what??" I go. "omg are you okay baby??" I asked him if he could get up, and he still looks confused. He finally stood up, walked into the living room and layed down on the dog bed in there. I follow him, crying. Cuz it upset me so bad.

Gigantor gets home like 5 seconds later, and Buster gets up and greets him, and walks outside for a few, then back inside.

I was so upset, and confused for a minute. All we could figure out was he had either a heart attack or a seizure. We thought stroke, but the heart attack or seizure would make him pee all over like that.

It was a weekend. Gigantor wanted to call the vet, which this vet here (the only one) Charges so much it would have been an almost 200 dollar emergency call.

I said, no he looks okay and all the vet will say is to keep an eye on him. So...on Monday I called them anyway and asked them about it. They said with his breathing problems, he probably got over heated or not enough oxygen and did have a seizure. And yes, all they told me was to keep an eye on him. They said he would start having more, and eventually it probably wouldn't be the pain in his legs, but his breathing problems, and or his seizures that will finally do him in.

Man I was so scared people, but my big old man hasn't had any problems since. We have been lucky.

If you all have an old doggers, or heck even a young one, or even any pet. Give them an extra I love ya pet from us today.

Hope you all have a great Wednesday.

Finally cooling down some.


Hahahaha I have that same thought once in a while. "Stoopid Gravity" hahahaha

It was a busy but not weekend.

Friday night my sister in law and niece had a candle/uppercase living party. We went down there. Gigantor stayed out in the taxidermy shop with the brother in law, and Kiddo played with his cousins. I bought some embellishments from uppercase living. I'm gonna recycle. After I burn one of those candles, I've been cleaning the candle jar real good. Then I'm gonna put one of the "sticker" things on them, and load them with candy or other goodies, and put ribbon on them and give them away for Christmas. hehehehe

I did buy 3 small candles. I will probably have my own party in mid November. That way I can get some free stuffs.

Saturday I was sleeping in cuz Gigantor had to work. Captain Daddy called said he was coming over, so I got up. Gigantor got home, and we were gonna do stuff with captain daddy till the matinee at 4. He got mad we decided to go to the movies (don't ask, if my mom or dad isn't misserable or pissed they aren't happy) So he left. We watched a couple programs then went to the matinee. Saw Igor. It was cute, I could have waited for the dvd, but the boys enjoyed it (Kiddo and his cousin) And we hadn't been to the movie in over three months.

Sunday I tried sleeping in again. Gigantor went to work then came home and got a list and went to walmart. I was sleeping. And fricken Captain Daddy showed up again. So...I got up.

Gigantor came home and we got some lunch, then he went and helped my uncle load some furniture. They unloaded a freezer and he gave us the food. It was 2 bags of frozen veggies. 2 bags of chicken nuggets and fish sticks, one box of eggo's, couple things of fish, and about 20 bags of either frozen blueberries, cherries, strawberries, or blackberries. Gigantor didn't know what to do with it, I told him I would figure something out, wasn't gonna let it go to waste.

He got home and 3, and I was upset, because the rat dog kept getting out of the dam yard, and we couldn't figure out where. When he got home, he walked around the back and found out the neighbors fence, about 40 feet of it was blown down.

This is the fence we were gonna replace, they bought the material, well most of it, and we would do the work. Gigantor had been putting skirting on, and in the next couple weeks was going to make a temp fence so the dogs had small yard, then tear down there fence and put the new one up. Well....now we had no choice. So..him and Kiddo and Kiddo's friend Big J went out and got the temp fence put up and things squared away. Gigantor says he's gonna get the old fence torn down in the evenings after work, then he can just work on the new one over the weekend.

Now it's Monday and I need to go pay bills, but I'm gonna go read blogs first.

Have a good Monday everyone. Maybe I will post my cheesey chicken recipe later (had that for dinner last night)

Ode to a Microwave


Hahhahahaha Orange is contajus. lmaoooooooooooo

Well....my dear loyal microwave, how we will miss you. You have served us good for 16 years. You cost over 400 dollars when my grandfather got you for us before our wedding. And now, models bigger than you cost only 150. hahahaha

You were dirty more than clean yet you never complained. You became the much needed shelf for "crap in general" that we needed in the kitchen.

And you always heated our food just right.

Please don't take it personal when Gigantor cussed you out when you died. Just because it was in the middle of making his pot pie for lunch. A pot pie we couldn't cook in the over cuz it would have taken over 30 minutes in there. And please don't feel bad when he called you a "heavy bitch" when he threw you in the trash.

May you enjoy eternity in microwave heaven.


hahahahahaha Yup our microwave died yesterday.

Not like most our appliances--which when they die usually go out very dramatic, with sparks and loud noises and sometimes explosions. No, it just dinged and died.

We were lucky though, because they opened a sears appliance store here. Where as sears was probably a bit more expensive than Walmart, I'm broke and I have a sears card, so they got our business. hahahahah

My sister tried telling us to wait till Christmas. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh We have became a very dependant family on the microwave. I was not going to wait for that long. Plus I don't know how I could live with a 12 year old without one. hahahahaha

Okay that was my exciting day yesterday.

Hope you all have a great Friday!!!!!

WTF are you Effin kidding me???

Okay I thought having a WTF picture would be good with today's post.

Monday night I had to do a big What the fuck are you fucking kidding me?? To the t.v.

When we go to bed I usually flick through the channels once as my pills kick in then I go to sleep. Monday night Gigantor got in the shower late, so I was flicking through the channels waiting for him.

I get on one of the 5 gazillion espn channels, and I see something.

Something that makes me hollar WTF!!!! Then saying, well it's a spoof, it has to be. And watching in horror as I find out not only is it not a spoof, but it is DAM REAL!!!

And there are idiots on the crowd, and two sweaty competitors, and a fricken referee, and OMG COMMENTATORS THAT ARE TRYING TO SOUND SERIOUS!!!!

HOW CAN THEY CALL THIS SHIT A SPORT????

Wanna know what it was I found????

I mean hopscotch is more of a major sport than this is!!! ahhhhhhhhhhh

okay wanna know??? do you????

It was.....IT WAS!!!!!

RPS!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROCK PAPER SCISSORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is just something that really irks the hell out of me. I might not be major athletic, but come one!!! How can you call that a sport???

Okay well have a good Wednesday everyone!!!!

Mondays are Blechie!!

Yup, Mondays are Blechie!! I would rather it still be the weekend. hahaha Wouldn't we all??

We were like steady busy this weekend, but we didn't kill ourselves like some weekends. Need to let my man have some down time. He works so dang hard.

We got our new cell phones in on Friday. I've been texting away. hahahaha If you all want to text me or a text from me, let me know. I'm getting good at this crap.

Saturday I slept in a tiny bit, and Gigantor got up and ran the vacuum, then played Diablo expansion set. hahahahah we all have been dinking with that.

I got up and we did gobs of laundry and dishes. Watched a show we recorded. Then Gigantor and Kiddo went outside, finished putting the finishing touches on the skirting on this side of the house, and filling it all in with the mounds of dirt we have in the yard.

We ate some dinner and watched Iron Man!!!

Sunday I slept in a bit while the boys did more Diablo. We cleaned the bird cage, straightened the living room, and Gigantor did some repair work in the bathroom that has been needing done. Last night we watched Witless Protection. I missed the end cuz someone came by for avon and we had to get it finished so Kiddo could go to bed.

Oh get this. My rat dog, Foxy, well she loves to climb under the covers with me. I will only let her under the comforter cuz I don't want sand and hair in the sheets. But her favorite time of the day is when Gigantor gets up and when he leaves he comes in to say goodbye to me, and holds the cover up so she squirts in next to me and sleeps. She will sleep for hours that way if I would stay in bed.

She doesn't want in with both of us, just with me.

So...on the weekend, Gigantor is trying to sleep in a bit. And by 6 in the morning, she has decided it's time for him to move. So she gets up and starts bouncing on him. So...I put her under the cover, and she gets mad, and squirts out the bottom. Just to come back 15 minutes later and lay on his chest making little moanie/growlie noises. Basicly telling him to move he's in her spot.

She actually sucessfully kicked him out of bed by 7 on Saturday, and she was so happy to be sleeping with me. On Sunday I wouldn't let her do it, so I put her under with both of us and kept my hand on her for a few, and she snuggled up to me. She let Gigantor still sleep in bed as long as he didn't try to snuggle. lmao

She has never done that before. We were laughing so dang hard about it this weekend.

Anyhow, I hope you all had a good weekend.

and have a great Monday. hahahahaha

Stupid ass blogger


OMG blogger is pissing me off. It won't let me comment half the time then took two days to let me get a post up. grrrrr

On another note, that picture cracks me the hell up. hahahahaha

Not much to report, been rather boring around here.

My floor is covered in bird seed. Apparently there was a hole in the trash bag and Gigantor set it on my computer chair, and it went all over the chair and the floor. He didn't clean it up, but put the vacuum out and asked the kid too. Kiddo vacuumed the chair, but it's all over the floor. I refuse to vacuum it, gonna make the stupid stoooopid man. hahahaha

Kiddo has been walking to school with his friend across the street, and walking home. A couple times walking home the friend couldn't be found so kiddo did it by himself, but he has walked to school by himself for the first time yesterday. I was proud of him. I know seems stupid, but it's a big event for us.

Gigantor and I are getting new cell phones, should be in today, getting a new plan too, so I can fricken text without charge every time. I will be able to text any verizon customer for free, and 500 other texts a month. I've been wanting to for a long time, but now I'm getting a cool ass phone with a keyboard and all.

Well like I said I'm pretty boring today, so I'm gonna go heat up some lunch. I have some left over green beans. hehehehe We make a huge pot of them when they are fresh, yummmmmm

Have a good Friday and or weekend everyone!!!!

Lookie what I did


Check out what I did. I went to a party last weekend. One with the lady that sells those decals, and she had a craft for people to do. She had glass blocks, decals, lights and ribbon, and we made this block. Then we got to bring it home. whoooohoooo

Gigantor says that's all I need is more decorations. hahahaha Seeing as I decorate out the bum for each holiday.

But he has conveniently lost one box of my Halloween decorations. I can't find them, and he says neither can he. Guess what he's gonna be doing each evening?? Yup, going through the shed. hahahahah

I don't think there is enough coffee in the world today. I took a pain pill last night, which they make me very very tired. And the dogs, the cat, the husband kept waking me up. I have the worst headache. Oh well, I'm sure it will go away soon enough. hehehehe

Well this is short today, I have to go put in some orders on some stuff while the guys aren't here. Yup I'm already in the throws of Christmas shopping. I don't have money to wait till last minute, so I have to try and get some stuff here and there.

Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!!!!

SSSQQQQQUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG Remember last post I said I had to keep the job situation hush hush till we heard about it???

Well we weren't supposed to hear for two weeks to a month. Guess who got a phone call today???!!!!!!!!!!

Okay let me start from the beginning. Most of you know that Gigantor worked a crap job with no appreciation, crap insurance, no retirment, and just a fucker of a boss. He worked for a place called Page Steel for 12 years that way.

Then he got his awesome job at Allied Waste (yup a garbage man) He got raises each year, better insurance, retirement, vacation. He got shoes and other minor stuff paid for, and he got told he was appreciated all the time. He has worked there just over 2 years. He's making 15.54 an hour. He's working 60 to 80 hours a week, and only holidays he has off is thanksgiving day and Christmas day.

Still a very awesome job though.

In our time here in Page, he has tried for government positions, especially with the dam. We never got it, so that was fine.

His brother in law got on out at the dam about a year ago. In August his sister came and told us of 2 openings at the dam. Told us about all this paperwork that had to be done. I guess you have to have a spot on application, a specific type resume, and a KSI (it's a sheet listing your Key Skills Information) Basically to sell yourself.

Well they kept it very hush hush. Didn't even advertise the job, because they are sick of every joe blow applying and having to weed through the crap. But his sister helped us do up all the proper paperwork. They only had it open for applications for 10 days.

We had been just sitting and waiting, biting our nails waiting to hear. We found out we could talk to a lady that had alot of pull there. Guess what??? She is our neighbor two doors down, and she "loves" us. hehehehe

So...Gigantor went and talked to her, she said that applications went to Salt Lake and they will weed through them, then send some down to the foreman in the dam. A week or so later, she said, she wasn't supposed to tell us, but that Gigantor had made the "short list" His app was with the foreman.

We waited another two weeks, holding our breath. He talked to a couple friends who worked at the dam, he said, I have no idea who all made it on the short list.

The friend said that 5 applications made it to the foreman and after reading them the foreman threw two away. That was 3 applications for two jobs. So...we waited. He then got called in for an interview.

Everyone told him what would be on the interview. When he went, that's not what was on it. Basically the interview team asked him if he could do a couple things, then told him all about the job.

They said they would send the interviews with notes back to Salt Lake and he would get a call in two weeks one way or another. So...again we waited. Today was week number one. And he got a phone call today.

HIS FIRST DAY AT THE DAM IS NOVEMBER 10TH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG people, you just don't know how awesome this is. He will work 4 ten hour shifts a week. Have every Fri, Sat and Sun off. They do NOT work them over 40 hours a week unless something goes wrong.

He will be making 18.79 and hour. Full medical, dental, and vision kicks in the day he starts, no waiting period. The amount he pays will go from 126 a pay period (what we are paying now) to about 90 a pay period, so that is a savings.

Also, he gets 4 hours of sick leave a pay period, and 4 hours of vacation a pay period. After he is there for 6 years it goes up to 6 hours. But..BUT... his 4 years in the military counts towards that already. As it counts towards his retirement time already too. whooooooooooooooooooooohooooooooooooooooooo

He will have every single holiday off!!!! EVERY ONE!!!! You can't ask for much better than a goverment job.

He loves his job now, but who can turn down one that is 3 dollars more an hour, and killer benefits, it's a dream for us, it's so good. We are blessed. Thank you to anyone sending the vibes and prayers, right back at ya my friends.

Oh what else is cool is Gigantor has never EVER worked a job at 40 hours a week. EVER the least he has worked is 60. How nice is that????

Okay I'm off to shower and snuggle with my major manly man!!!!! He gets WAY TO GO sex. hehehehehe

Have a good Tuesday everyone!!!!!

More Pictures

Here are some more pics of those decals, the one's in my kitchen. I got some piggies on the back of my wood chairs. I also have some cows, but they didn't come out in the pictures.


This is the rooster, flowers and bugs around the window right above my sink. Look at how long those vines on my plants are. It's two plants and they are strung half way around the kitchen.


This is a pic of the rooster up close. I have a "barnyard/country" theme in my kitchen.


The pink poppies on the right hand side with a green lady bug and red butterfly. Cute huh??



The pink poppies on the left hand side with a purple lady bug and a yellow butter fly. I actually ordered 3 more ladybugs and 3 more butterflies to have them flying around the top there, it will look so cute when I'm done.

On that note, the cat just got up on the table leaned off the side and had projectile vomit all over the place. I think I might be sick myself. ugggghhhhh

We had a busy weekend. I went to a party with the lady that does the decals and we made a really cool glass block. I will try to get some pics soon and show them soon.

We made pinto beans and hamhocks tonight and cornbread. Yummmmm Haven't had them in over 6 months. They were so dam good.

Oh, now I'm not supposed to be saying what it is, I'm sure I can tell you all soon. But please send out special vibes/prayers/thoughts/mojo for Gigantor and his "job situation". I'll explain when I can. I've been asked to keep it hush hush not even say anything on the blog.

So...there was my weekend in a nutshell. I will try to post much better this week.

Have a great Monday everyone!!!!

IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy cow people I think I'm alive!!! Can you believe it??? I almost can't. Man that was horrible. Gigantor thinks I might have had a mild case of pneumonia. I'm thinking he might be right. I was soooooooooo sick.

I'm still coughing but just mainly at night. The breathing treatments have helped and the tessalon pearls. I think.

I actually was able to get a bit of sleep over the past three or four nights.

I wanted to show you all some pictures. I got my nails done today for next month.

Then I have started putting up those decal things I got for the house. Giving you all pics of the random one's right now, and will show you my kitchen stuff in the next post.

I'm looking forward to reading blogs again. Thank you everyone that has dropped it, it's been appreciated.


My Halloween nails. I love to do stuff for each holliday. I don't really run out except for may, june, august and sept I don't have themes for.

This decal I put above the shower in my son's bathroom. I think it is so cute. The camera doesn't show the color to well, it's indigo blue.


I got this one on my laundry room door, in hunter green. It just cracks me up. Love it!!!



This is on my son's bedroom door. Of course it's a dragon, what else would this family have?? hehehehe


Okay I'm gonna go and get a munchie, and check the t.v.guide. I've missed you all, and look forward to looking in on blogs again.

Have a good Wednesday everyone!!!!!

Last Resort

I know I haven't blogged. Bad bad me.

I was having a hard time staying alive I guess, so blogging was way down on the list.

I'm on my last resort of medicine right now. I can not get over the cough again. Remember back in June and July I had one that lasted 4 weeks?? We are on week three and this one is worse.

I got over the cold, and the sinus infection after a couple weeks, but this cough is so bad. And again nothing is working. So...we are down to breathing treatments again. Took me almost 4 days fighting with the clinic and pharmacy to give me the meds for the breathing machine. I got them now. So...keep your fingers crossed.

I feel pretty much how that guy looks in that picture.

So...yeah hopefully will be back to blogging soon. Hell hope I'm back to being a decent mom and wife soon.

I'll be checking in on you all's blog soon, as soon as I can sit in one place more than 5 minutes without having coughing fits.

Have a good Wednesday everyone!!!!

Wednesday, September 10, 2008

quick note


Besides that picture making me giggle, cuz I would react the same way. I'm just dropping a quick note.

I was feeling tons better over the weekend. Then I took a nap, cuz the cough had been keeping me up. I woke up from the nap and everything had settled in.

I'm blowing out the green/yellow junk, when I can blow something out, and my head is all stuffed. And the cough, oh my sweet crispy jeebus the cough. If I could stop the cough, I would feel almost 200% better, then I could just clear my sinuses.

I think it's a bit worse, cuz I was massively sick for a week before it settled in, so I have no energy to fight it right now. I'm fuzzy (well more than usual) hahaha

I know you all feel like you are telling me to get better soon all the dam time. Honestly I'm not sick that often. In pain or hurt yes, sick, not so much. But when I am, I guess I have to do it all the dam way, no slacking for me. hahahahaha

Okay I may be reading some blogs if I can keep awake long enough, if I comment weirder than usual, just know the pressure on my brain is making me see weird things. hahahhaa

Have a good Wednesday everyone!!!!

my poor hubby


Oh my gosh that poor cat in that picture. hehehehe

My poor husband, was worked to the bone on friday. He did his route out at work, then the "supervisor/boss" told him to go out on the residential route and train the new driver.

The guy that was training her had to leave for St. George (he was a temp) and he told everyone he was over half way done, just had off the hill left to do. Which is about 2 hours worth of work. Gigantor got done with his route at about 3. So....he goes and takes over. Only to find out, the other guy lied. He hadn't even finished half of uptown. So Gigantor was hurrying.

Now Gigantor goes in to work about 5:30 to 6 every morning. Federal law says he's not supposed to drive over 11 hours, corporate law says they aren't supposed to work over 12. At 11 hours, Gigantor started calling boss guy (who went home at 4) and he kept calling and leaving messages, but the fucker wouldn't call him back. Guess what time Gigantor got done with that route?? 7 fucking 30. That was 14 fricken hours.

Oh boss called him at about 8, and I was trying to take the phone from Gigantor, we was gonna have words, but he finally bitched boss man out. Cuz, see, boss man is salary, and he should have gone out and taken the route when his other stuff was done. Instead he just left Gigantor and the new lady hanging. And the biggest pet peeve about boss man is if corporate starts yelling at Gigantor, boss man doesn't say, "well he was doing what I told him too." Boss man tries to make himself free of blame and get the worker in trouble. Gigantor seriously warned him not to even try that crap this time.

Well...on Saturday, I thought Gigantor would just sorta rest. He was so tired he sounded half dead the night before. But he went out and started working on the frame for putting up the skirting. The frame is the hardest part and takes the longest. Kiddo went out and helped him for most the day. D showed up in the afternoon to help. They got over half of one side done.

And on sunday he got the frame up for most of the rest of that one side. And the skirting cut, just needs to be installed. He worked hard, but he felt so good about it. It was something for his own home, and not for the irritating as shit boss man.

I'm interested to find out if anything happens at work today.

Hope you all have a good Monday!!!!

RIP Bubbles

Rest in peace Bubbles. May you rest happily in that gerbil den in the sky, with your sisters Blossom and Buttercup.

That's right my son named his three female gerbils after the power puff girls, what of it???

She didn't die that one night. But Gigantor and I made her comfortable, and I watched her the next day, she died about noon. Poor little old girl. She didn't suffer, she looked very peaceful. And thank god I didn't have to have the giant stomp her. hahahaha

I didn't post for a couple days, cuz I started feeling like chit again. I got a horrid cough with that whole cold/sinus bullshit. And it was keeping me up at night again.

I went to my sexy chiropractor (god he is so cute and sessy it should be a sin) And he worked on my "sympathetic" nervous system. He says there is the nervous system that controls movement, and other nerves and vertebrae that help control imunity and what not.

He massivly did pressure points, he pulled on my ears, and popped open the sinus cavities, and he manuvered my head, popped my neck, pressure pointed my neck and upper shoulders.

He usually works on my lower back, but he said I looked misserable and did that instead. He said I would probably feel worse that night, but that I should feel better the next day.

I was a bit sceptical, but who knows. So...yeah last night, I was draining so bad, my nose was running down my face, I was coughing so bad, I should have just lived in the bathroom. After I got up this morning, I still have a few coughing fits, but nothing like the past few days, and I'm not runny in the nose, that is very very nice.

Although I do have the runs. meh small price to pay I guess. hahahahaha

Okay on that note, I'm gonna go finish my sandwich and check on all you peoples blogs. See if blogger is being nice. It would NOT let me open the comment window and leave comments yesterday. So..yeah I checked and read and tried to comment, then I cussed and ranted, and flipped off blogger. hahahaha

Have a good Friday everyone, and good weekend if I don't get back before it's over.

Deathwatch and roadkill

I thought Corky would love that picture.

I feel a tiny bit better, instead of feeling like I keep getting run over by a semi. I feel like I'm laying in the road like roadkill. Guess that's better. hehehehehe

I got randomness today.

In the mornings I have been taking Kiddo, Big J and sometimes his little sister to school. Then the boys walk home together. Well...they have started some after school clubs. Kiddo has computer club on Mondays and he's on a waiting list for Fitness club on Wednesday. Big J has drum line on Mon and Wed and walking club on Tues. So...I still drive them, but most afternoons they have to walk home alone.

Every once in a while Big J's mom gets off early and goes and gives them a ride home.

Well...Big J has been riding his bike on Mon and Wed, so I take Kiddo alone.

I got a nice surprise this morning. Big J's mom called and said he was gonna ride his bike, but then said to send Kiddo over (they live across the street) that she would give him a ride to school. After she did that, she texted me and said she was gonna go ahead and pick him up from school too.

That was really nice, to have someone offer, instead of me having to ask.

Well....I've been on deathwatch since last night. Kiddo's poor little gerbil is dying. She's is way way old, lived longer than the other two, they say the oldest they live is 3 years, and she is at 4 years old. She was barely moving and couldn't even open her eyes last night.

She's in a corner very quiet this morning, but she is still breathing. I kept praying that god would take her quickly, but I guess a lonely gerbil is way down on his list of "to do" things.

I would send Gigantor out to take care of her if she was suffering. But dammit I've had him kill so many dam animals for me. Lots of chickens and roosters, some mice and hamsters. Other such things.

I couldn't face asking him too again, and I didn't wanna hear the stomp. Yes the quickest most humane way to kill a small rodent is to smash that size 14 boot down as hard as you can. He would have done it if I asked, but dam, that poor man. She's laying quietly and not struggling, so I'm not gonna make him.

All I know is I am done with rodents for a while. We have had so many dam hamsters, dwarf hamsters, gerbils and what not, that at our old lot. I started teasing about having a hamster/gerbil garden. I probably had 10 or more little avon jewelry boxes with little corpses in them burried in the back.

Gigantor asked where we wanted to start the new garden. hhahahahhaah I told him the trash. Not to be mean, but that fricken rat dog of mine, digs up every fricken thing. She has found bones that my mothers dogs burried probably 10 years ago. grrrrr A little gerbil corpse would be a tasty snack for her.

Okay....I need more meds, cuz the fever is coming back. ugggghhh I need lunch too.

My toes and fingers and nose is cold. Maybe a blanket.

Hope you all are doing well and have a great Wednesday.

ugggghhhhhh

Went to the doctor on Saturday, spent 4 hours in there. Got a sinus infection and a cold. Got some antibiotics.

Felt like major ass all weekend. Didn't do shit, but sleep, and cough, and doze. Feel like crap today, but had to get up to take the kid to school.

Thinking of going back to bed.

Hope you all had a great holiday weekend, and have a good Tuesday!!!
