Hell Cat

Well the wind has basically stopped blowing, and now it's warming up. Been about 79 or 80 here. SoOoooOO beautiful!!! My cough is pretty much gone away. It's still hanging on. I feel good except for the stupid cough, so I'm just struggling with that. Taking alot of sugar free robitussin cough syrup.

My fathers cat, is the cat from hell, let me tell ya. What a little shit she is. I finally pulled out the flippin spray bottle. Here is her daily routine. Wake up, come out of Captain Daddy's room, and find my cat. Then she torments my cat, by attacking him and hissing at him, and there is always a cat fight each morning. So...he goes outside (my cat). And every time he tries to come back inside during the day she jumps on him, and acts all shitty so he runs back outside. Then she decides she needs to attack one of the dogs. Every time he moves in the house. She has taken it upon herself to make sure everything on the table is on the floor every day. One corner of the table is my little office area for my Avon. So...I have to pick everything up a couple times a day. She has decided that all my house plants are her buffet, and all the dirt should be on the floor. I have two plants that are non existent anymore, they are eaten down to stubs. She keeps getting on the counter attacking the gerbil cage. We take her down each time, cuz she knocked over my favorite, very expensive vase that was holding my anniversary flowers. Then she goes and attacks the bird cage. She has knocked it off it's shelf twice, poor birdies. But she is pouncing at it at least 10 times a day. So...we are up down, up, down, up, down, getting this cat away from shit, and fixing things every fricken day. And here is the real kicker, that finally got my goat. She keeps going and scratching the shit out of my new couch and loveseat. My new "Suede" couch and love seat. And she just stares at us and keeps doing it, as we yell, and won't stop till we come over and almost touch her, then she runs off. This morning she had done all of these about 20 times, and it's only 9:30. So I marched my happy bubble butt into the bathroom, and got the water squirt bottle, and filled it up. She was at the bird cage and I hosed her down, she didn't like that to much, she tried the couch and I got her between the eyes. Now she is glaring at my back, sharpening her claws and plotting her next move.

I love all animals, but I would have spanked the shit out of this young cat already if she were mine, and she would know what she could and couldn't do around here. Hard with Captain Daddy here, he even gets upset when we yell at her for scratching the couch. So....he went out and about, and that's when I armed myself. LOL She's gonna get the hint, let me tell ya.

Okay all I'm off to switch laundry and get a turkey breast in the oven soon.

Have a good Thursday!!!

Sooooooooo Yummie

Well...the wind is still blowing. And yes it SUCKS ASS!!!!! I still have that horrible cough. I feel great except that stupid cough. It kept me up for three hours last night, and that's after taking decongestant, and cough medicine. So...I can't tell if I'm just "draggin ass" tired or if I'm "bite your head off" tired. Guess the day will tell.

On that lovely note, I wanted to share a very easy very yummie recipe with ya all. I got this low carb cook book. Everything in this book is very low carb, and low fat, and low calories. It does a break down on each recipe, and it's amazing how "not bad for you" all of them are. We have made this one many times, and love it!!!!!

PEPPERONI PIZZA SOUP

1 tablespoon oil
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
(we love onions and mushrooms so we do about 1 1/2 cup of both, and 1/2 cup yellow bell peppers, this is an easy recipe, tweek it to your liking)
1 can (15 ounces) pizza sauce
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) chicken broth
1 cup water
3 ounces sliced pepperoni (we have used canadian bacon also, again whatever you like)
1 teaspoon dried oregano (we leave this out, cuz the only pizza sauce this stupid little town sells is way way seasoned so it has enough)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1. Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add mushrooms, bell pepper and onion. Cook, stirring frequently, 7 minutes or until vegetables are tender.

2. Stir in pizza sauce, broth, water, pepperoni and oregano. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Top with cheese and or croutons just before serving.


Okay I'm off to cough on somebody. Have a good Tuesday everyone!!!
This really helps if your dieting, and you crave pizza, you can get the pizza craving gone, and it's very satisfying.

Short and Sweet

1. I still have that horrible cough, and I'm having to keep on med and cough med every 4 hours. I may have to bite the bullet and go to the doctor

2. Gigantor did remember our anniversary, I got a card, flowers, and a cake. (?)

3. Nobody else really remembered. Not that I wanted a ton of people too, but his parents, and my best friend and his best friend would have been nice. Captain Daddy remembered, and Alekx gave us happy wishes, after she read it in my blog. hehehehee (caught you sis)

4. I hate the mother fucking wind!!!! (2 weeks straight of wind)

5. Captain Daddy is really ready to get back into his own place. Hopefully the fridge will be fixed by Monday or Tuesday, so he can get in there no later than next weekend.

6. To tell the truth, I'm really ready for Captain Daddy to be in his own place too.

7. Why is it, when you give a man a list of 4 very small things to do over an entire weekend, you will be lucky to only get one of them done???

8. I really really hate the wind!!!!!!

9. These two cats are never gonna get along and not fight. I think my animals will be glad when Captain Daddy's kitty is out of the house.

10. Sugar free and fat free pudding is not bad, but lets face it, it's not good either.

11. Kiddo needed a shoe box for school tomorrow, and I had to call 12, yup 12 people to find a flippin shoe box.

12. Why can't men take garbage out when it's so full it's over flowing??? NoOOOoOo they have to stack shit higher and higher, and even next to the flippin trash can!!!!

13. If your in a staring match with a gerbil, the gerbil will always win

14. I'm actually very glad that there is only one month of school left.

15. I really really really hate the mother bunny humping wind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a good Monday all!!!

Coughs and Vomit

Well....I don't feel like dirty ass anymore. Somewhat like clean ass. I've been taking a bunch of dayquil. And I'm feeling somewhat better, just a little stuffy and still a cough. I'm thinking maybe it's a head cold, and hopefully I can get it kicked on out.

Last night, kiddo was up at 11. He had projectile vomited all over the floor of his room, the hall way, the bathroom, and finally reached the toilet. So...got him in the shower, and then had to go about cleaning our butts off (actually Gigantor did the cleaning up) Then put him back to bed. I kept him home from school today. The 4th graders are supposed, to go on a river trip tomorrow. So...I wanted to keep him home so that he can go do that tomorrow.

OOoOO also tomorrow is my anniversary. I've gotten nothing for Gigantor. Not a dam thing. I have been sick, and I'm broke so oh well. LOL He better dam well remember me though. hehehehee I say it sorta kiddingly. But he has blown off our anniversary quite a few times. He owes me. hehehehe

Okay I'm gonna go finish my rice cakes with fat free peanut butter. LOL

Have a good Thursday all.

Is Somebody's Ass in my Mouth???

Gad, I feel like ass today. I didn't sleep well Sunday night so I was tired yesterday. Then for some god awful reason I coughed all night last night. So...now I'm way tired, and I feel like ass. My throat hurts. dammit.

In other news. Easter was very nice. Rather quiet and lazy. We watched Narnia, which kiddo got in his basket. And we watched Memoirs of a Geisha, which Captain Daddy got me. Both are excellent movies. We had a great dinner. Prime rib, asparagus, potatoes, pink poofoo, deviled eggs, rolls, and for desert, apple pie ala mode.

We went out to eat breakfast the other day, and my vortex bra must have been working over time. I dropped egg right where it would go in the bra if I wasn't wearing such a high cut shirt. I dropped bacon and hashbrowns there too. Then for some reason the blueberry syrup attacked me. I left that restaurant looking like I had been in a food fight. I had streaks and dots of blueberry syrup all over my light blue shirt. And I had splotches of egg and all my other food right at the dip in your cleavage, on my shirt. Can't dress me up and take me out anywhere. I swear.

Well...I'm gonna go finish my piece of pecan pie and my mug of coffee and I may just go lay back down. Since I feel so assie. LOL not to be mistaken with ausie.

Us Poor Fools

Okay I have decided if God is picking on us, then he is leaving some other poor fools alone. So...everybody should have had a free hall pass card yesterday. I swear...what the hell??? hehehe

Okay so you all know I got the suburban fixed before going to get Captain Daddy. To the tune of 330 bucks. Then just about two weeks ago I got the fuel pump fixed in it to the tune of 356 bucks. Well...Gigantor told me there was some weird noise coming from the back of his truck. But we decided to wait a week or so.

Yesterday, Good Friday, no school, I get to sleep in. I was in heaven thinking I could sleep till 8 or 8:30. Hubby wakes me up at about 6:30, and says, "you have to get up and come tow my truck" I'm like, WTF??? He went to the convenience store on the way to work, and got a sandwich. Came out, and the truck wouldn't start. Cranked but wouldn't turn over. But it can't be fuel pump, cuz we have duel tanks. And the other tank should have worked. Cuz it has a fuel pump in each tank. So...he walked home to get me so I could tow it. We go back down there, and the stupid thing starts. So...we take it uptown to the shop, and he says he's not sure, to drive it and see what happens. Head back home (I'm following him all the time) and the check engine light comes on. Call the guy at shop back, and he says to bring it up, they will scan it. And let us know by noon so we can fix it.

Come home, and my fricken computer crashes. I mean, blue screen of death. Unhook computer, take it to the shop, to find out that my hard drive crashed, and he doesn't know if he can save anything on it. I told him, that I would deal with everything, if he could just get my pictures off it. Last one's of my mom, and her memorial. He said he would try.

Call the guy about fixing Captian Daddy's refrigerator in the travel trailer. Told we have to take the thing out and bring it to him. If it's a sensor, then he probably can replace it, if it's the element, then he isn't sure he can get a replacement, and if he can they are 400 bucks. If it's neither, then a new fridge of that kind is 1500 bucks.

All this happened and we haven't even had breakfast yet. grrrrrrrrrr

Then we decided to go shopping, and kept running into problems at the store. They didn't mark the prime rib roast right, and it took a fricken half hour to get the shit straight. So...we eat a way late lunch. Like 3 in the afternoon. And I realize that I forgot to get my medicine when down town. So...gigantor went and got the meds and the computer.

Now today, I am cooking eggs for dying and to give to the easter bunny to hide. And I am going to make some pecan pies this afternoon. Desert is gonna be Pecan and Apple pie ala mode.

Well...I better go get cookin.

Happy Easter everyone.

And please pray or do spells, or dances to make this awful hex come off of us. hehehehe

The Family that Farts Together....

errrr....Stinks together. I swear we need a gas mask around this house. I have no idea what we ate, but it's one honkin house right now. Every time one of us stands up we fart, in the car-fart, sit down-fart, walk-fart. You can hear farting all over the house. For once it's not the dogs or the cat. They are the one's constantly begging to be let outside, cuz we all are farting so much. I have no idea what it could be. We didn't eat anything unusual, or that normally would give a person gas. But they smell like rotten eggs. Just imagine what it's gonna smell like in here next week, after tons of deviled eggs on easter. hehehehehehe

Okay I have a delima. I was gonna make a ham for easter dinner, as is our tradition. But...I made a ham the first couple days Captain daddy was here, and now the boys keep looking at me going. *insert whinie voice* "But we just had hammmmm" And a turkey is out of the question. We have been turkeyed out. So...I finally made a decision. Gigantor is going to cook up one of his sucullant prime rib roasts. I think I'm gonna make potatoes (with lipton onion mushroom soup mix and a touch of olive oil on them) and asparagus (captain daddy made a special request), deviled eggs, pink poofoo (remember that one), and rolls. But...BUT!!!! I can not for the life of me figure out a desert. Don't say cake, because..*insert another whinie voice* "we just had a cake last weekend" I was thinking of maybe buying a couple frozen pies, and serving it hot with ice cream. ALA MODE hehehehehe Oh oh oh oh oh You all know that apple pie ala mode is the best, and any fruit pie ala mode rocks also. But we went to a little cafe when we scattered mom's ashes and guess what we had. HOT pecan pie ala mode. I can make some pretty killer pecan pies. Maybe I'll make pecan and have an apple, and get some vanilla ice cream. But please give me ideas, in case I flake on that one. hehehehe

Okay does anybody know at what age parakeets will breed. And if they are in captivity parakeets, do you need to build them a nesting box before they breed??? Will I be safe if I don't build them one??? Will they never breed then??? ahhhhhhhh I found out from Captain Daddy, that to tell a parakeets sex. You look at that little piece of skin above their beak, where their noses are. If it's pale, or pink they are a girl. If it's blue, they are a boy. OMG OMG OMG I have one of each. I don't know if I'm up for little baby parakeets. I don't know the first thing about them. But....I don't know if they will ever breed. I'm so fricken lost.

Okay off to mash my taters (and that was literal, not some sexual comment this time.) hehehehehe

Happy Good Friday and a very Happy Happy Easter to all, if I don't talk to you before then!!!!!

Faster than a Speeding Bullet

Finally I am faster than a speeding bullet. Watch me zoom by. See my dust cloud. hehehehehe

I finally did it. I got cable internet. It's pretty expensive here. That's why I hadn't done it yet. But...I had of all things *gag* dial up. And my server was getting worse and worse. I could barely dial in, and I was waiting anywhere from 2 to 10 minutes for pages to load, depending on the graphics of the place. I must be a really dedicated blog reader, to stick with you guys, and spend hours so I can read your blogs. *pat on back* Now I can load them in seconds. hehehehehe

Well...I must say that the vortex bra is back in full swing, or should I say "suxtion" Nothing had fallen prey to my bra in a long long time. Maybe it was cuz it was winter and it would hide. But now that it's warmed up. I'm finding all sorts of interesting objects in there again. I found a mini marshmallow in my bra the other night. I would like to know where the hell it came from, since we don't have any fricken marshmallows in the dam house. Mostly it's just after my food, and crumbs, and the like. (hungry after the winter hibernation I guess) But a flippin marshmallow, I'm still wondering about that one. Wonder if the easter bunny is gonna hide an egg in there. If it tries, I'm sure my bra will suck it and the bunny in, then there will be disappointed children all over. And my bra will be known as the bunny killer. *snork* hehehehe

Okay I'm off to go pee before I leave a puddle.

I just love how fast this posts now. hehehehehe

Happy Tuesday everyone.

Holy Herding Children Batman

It's almost easter. I still have to get to the store. I have done no easter bunny shopping. ahhhhhhhhhh

Today was the city egg hunt. When they do that, they usually advertise, then you go to the sports complex. (has 4 softball fields on it. We also have the youth soccer and football play on it) We took Kiddo, Big J, and his sister, Little Pixie. You show up with a bucket or basket. Figure out which half of which field your child will be on. (split into age groups) And each half (the halfs are fenced off with temporary fence) they have had tons of volunteers, fill plastic eggs and throw them out on the field. In some of the eggs are little tickets for the kids to win bigger prizes. Kiddo has one a big prize 3 times.

So...it usually is start at 9. They have a petting zoo, where the 4-H kids bring out, chickens, ducks, rabbits, goats, pigs, and a miniature horse. This year there was no petting zoo. Bummer. Then they also have games that the kids can win and go get a prize. Kiddo and big J got frisbee's and little balls that look like oranges. Little Pixie got a book. Then they also have balloons (which we didn't get this year, cuz the line was about 200 people long) They have firetrucks and ambulances out for everyone to look at. And a few police officers and one of the K-9 officers they do a demonstration with. They have Elmo, winnie the pooh, big bird, mcgruff the crime dog, and the easter bunny, for everyone to see. You can also for a small fee get pictures of your child with the easter bunny. I think I did that the first couple years we took kiddo. Now we don't anymore. At 10 on the dot. They start the egg hunt. So...about 9:50, Gigantor took Little Pixie down to her field for the hunt. Captain Daddy and I took Kiddo and Big J to their field. The hunt seems like it only last about 2.6 minutes. hehehehehe

The boys only got little prizes in their eggs, and Little Pixie got a ticket. So..she went and won a jewelry/key chain making kit. That was cool.

There was a huge crowd and tons of kids, but it was fun. One thing I really liked about this year. Is...they advertised it less than usual. It wasn't in the paper, and only on the radio once. So...all the outlying reservation towns didn't come in this time. I'm not trying to be overly rude. But...at these town functions, most the organizers only do enough stuff for towns people, and a few outlying area's. But when they are advertised really well. We get people from reservation towns, up to 100 miles away. It may sound awful, but they organize for about 5 to 6 hundred children, and then get anywhere from 4 to 6 that show up. But when all the towns from that far away show up, we end up with almost 1000 people or so. Then people miss out on things. Because there is never enough planning, parking, law enforcement, and courtesy for that many people. Their towns run their own activities too, so why they invade ours, sometimes gets a little trying on the nerves. Now something like or summer or fall festivals, I understand tons of people showing up from other towns, and they do prepare for that. But small little city functions, those are the one's that get over crowded.

It's like trick or treating each year. We hear advertisements on the radio about trick or treating on a few days before halloween, in some of the towns, and they then say that only their residents can attend. But they do it on different days, so they all can drive into our town and do it on halloween too. I think that is wrong. It's been that way for years and years, but it's still wrong. That is greedy to me. If you don't have a place to go and do activities, then by all means, drive into a place that has them. But if your town holds them also, and your small little town is now planning them around another towns, so everyone can go to multiple of the same thing. It think that is wrong.

Okay I'm done with my tangent. I'm gonna go..gotta go work on Captain Daddy's trailer some more.

Have a good weekend everyone!!!

The Suburban Gods Hate Me

Well I didn't get the suburban back till the end of the day today. That son of a bitching car. I swear to god. I could buy a new one with all the shit. grrrrrrrrr So....it was the fuel pump, then they had to drop the tank to replace the pump. But in doing that, they have to tear apart a strainer thingie and the in line fuel filter, which they forgot to add those and labor on the quote. So...end result was 356 buckeroonies. Okay so 330 before we went to get Captain Daddy, and now 356 after he is back here. Maybe I need to get a horse again, and just say screw it to the vehicles. But then I'd probably have a thousand dollar vet bill. hehehehe

I'm sure Captain Daddy is ready to be out of the house. He seems a little disgusted when we start our little family tirades. And when we have to punish Kiddo. I know he's somewhat disgusted that his perfect little grandson is doing crap like he's doing. (1/2 hour talk with his teacher about him disrespecting her today) And I know Captain Daddies kitty is ready to be the hell out of here. About the first week she stayed hidden in his room. I let him put the sandbox and food in there. Now she is venturing out. But she is still picking fights with the dogs, and my cat. Only thing now, is instead of my animals backing off. They know she is like here to stay, so when she is pissy, they fight back to put her in her place. We have had to break up a few fights. Usually stop my animals from killing her. Dumb little shit. hehehehe

AND WHEN THE HELL DID EASTER SNEAK UP ON ME?????? I wanted to get Kiddo a movie or two and a bunnie, and a few yummie goodies for his basket. I have the bunny, and Captain Daddy keeps buying videos when they come out. I had to yell at him today not to buy Chronicles of Narnia, cuz I didn't want him ruining my easter gift. He's already ruined two easter or birthday gifts by buying the stuff right away. hehehee So...this Saturday is the city egg hunt and petting zoo. I'll take everyone to that, then I have to get my happy butt to the store and get the stuff for his basket.

Anyhow I'm gonna go beat the dog for being an idiot and slap the husband for being annoying, then I'm going to bed. hehehehe

TheTale of an Ass Clown

My son is a clown, and he is a clown with a bare ass. hehehehe There for an ass clown.

My son is usually very quiet, and rather shy. So...for him to do something goofy or funny or entertaining in front of anyone other than us, is just way way unusual.

So Kiddo and Big J were here playing yesterday. And they are jumping on the trampoline. They must have played on the tramp for about 3 hours yesterday. And Gigantor goes out and sprays them and the tramp down with the hose, then proceeded to water the tree. I was outside just watching the boys, and the neighbors across the street were goofing off also. When my son starting taunting his daddy, cuz he wanted sprayed again. And in midst of jumping, my young, innocent, sweet 9 year old screams "HEY DAD LOOK AT THIS" (which makes all the neighbors look) and he pulled down his pants, and mooned us all!!!! I mean I thought I had time, like till he was a young teenager, before he started showing people all his ASSets. But NoOoOOoOoOo my son is starting early. *sigh* I can just see the phone calls now, when he's a teenager. From his friends parents, girlfriends parents, from the school, the police. ahhhhhhhhhh LOL

Okay and on a side note, went out this morning, and started the suburban, then it died, then tried again, and it goes crank crank crank, but won't catch and turn over. It does the rear rear rear noise, but no catching or turning over. Thank God Captain Daddy was here and drove us to school. Gigantor said he was worried it might be the fuel pump. So...had the mechanic guy come check and he said he thought so too. Had to tow the bitch up to the mechanics, then was told that they would do one more test, but if it is the fuel pump, then they have to drop the entire gas tank to replace it. Told me it would be about $325. *BANGS HEAD ON DESK*

Gigantor and I said, how some people say "when it rains it pours" well with us, "when it rains, it pours buckets of diarrhea on our heads"

That's it for Monday. I'm outa here.

Movie Review, and Busy ness

We went and seen Ice Age 2 The Meltdown today. Excellent movie, very very good. But dam if we weren't packed in that theater like sardines. They were selling tickets so good, that the movie was almost 20 minutes late starting. They packed in there so heavy that they let some kids sit on the floor up front. (joys of small town) I can't wait to get it on video and see it again, and hear all the parts we missed for all the laughing, screaming children. But it was still a fun time. Of course Captain Daddy went with us.

I didn't get a chance to post anything else this week. Cuz to say we were busy, would have been an understatement. Besides getting my son to school, and home and doing homework, and cooking, and cleaning up. This week to get daddy settled in we visited alot of places. 4 times to DMV, 5 trips to the bank, 5 trips to safeway, 8 trips to the post office, 8 trips up to daddies trailer, 1 parent teacher conference, 30 houses to deliver avon books, 4 trips to the gas company, 2 trips to the city, 1 trip to get title notarized, 1 truck sold (mom's), 2 trips to fire dept, and a few other places I can't remember right now. It's been raining on and off here all week. So...as long as it doesn't rain today or tonight, then Gigantor it going to go level daddies trailer tomorrow, then we need to hook up water, sewer, and electric. Then gigantor and I need to help him get it all back in order, and we need to vacuum and clean the thing real good. Then during the week, the gas company is going to come and run line for the gas and hook it up. His trailer runs off of propane, and where he lived he had a big giant propane tank. But our gas company doesn't rent those out, because the entire city is run on propane through the lines. So...they have to come run some line and hook it up to his trailer. So...we thought captain daddy could move back in his place this weekend, but it looks like next weekend is more likely.

We are off to make a major healthy dinner. Biscuits and gravy and eggs and bacon. heheheheh

OoOoo On a side note, Master Clark (the taekwondo teacher) is a dead man. We were going through walmart last night, and I had Gigantor pick up Chicken Little, for me to put in Kiddo's easter basket. Well....Master Clark walks up to say high, and digs in the cart, and goes "what's this" and holds it up. So...of course kiddo saw it, and now we have to let him have it now. I was ready to thunk Master Clark. hehehehehe

Hope you all are having a good weekend.

Back, and Alive, But not Kicken.

We are back. And we are alive. And I feel half dead. hehehehe

Wednesday--Got up to 5 inches of snow on the ground and roads. Did 35mph with 4 wheel drive on for 50 miles. Was able to get up to 50mph for 70 miles. Dropped back down to 35 with 4 wheel on for another 68 miles or so. Then it was like "poof" no snow no ice no where. Made up some time the rest of the way. Got there in 9 hours. Got to dads, rested for a half hour or so. Immediately start packing up his trailer. Pack till about 6, then go eat. Felt like we were dying at about 8:30 was so tired. Tripped and fell down dad's steps, wrenched the back of left knee major bad. Drove all the way out to the guys place we were staying at, and he wasn't there. he was supposed to be there by 7. Waited around till 9. Yelled at Gigantor, "fuck it we are going to a motel, I'm dead ass tired" and went to leave. Guy showed up. Guy wanted to talk for another hour or so, and give tour of house. I Was rude, went and put kiddo to bed, and fell asleep on chair until Gigantor decided to come to bed. (we all slept in one room, me on the dinky bed, and Gigantor and Kiddo on the floor in sleeping bags).

Thursday--Woke up early, guy was gone to work. Took showers, went to dads. He had unpacked all that we packed. Said he was looking for something. Packed that back up. Went to breakfast. Went to bank, ins place, post office, Ace hardware, walmart, to wash suburban (all the mud from snow and ice roads), to grab lunch, back to dads. Ate, and started packing again. Friend of mine came over with son to chat for a few and say hi. Guy showed up, showed Gigantor what he had to do to unhook all utilities for the trailer (guy helped set it up). Took Guy out to dad's storage shed, went through lots of stuff. Decided it would all fit in suburban and tracker and trailer. Back to dads, more packing. Dad and Gigantor went to walmart for things forgot yesterday. Kiddo and me stayed, babied my sore knee. Boys back from walmart, bought bunji cords, started bunji ing cubbors shut that were packed up. Went to dinner, back to dads. Tore down table, made it and benches flush (travel trailer remember). Started stacking packed stuff neatly on top. 10:30 announce if we wait any longer I'll be to tired to drive those few miles out to guys place. Leave, get to guys, he's in bed. It's late. Get kiddo and ourselves in bed.

Friday--Get up drive to dads. Find all the stuff we packed on the table benches, in the living room, and bench storage opened and stuff scattered. Helped him find what he was looking for, re packed, put back together, moved boxes back. Found all cupboards un bunjied and gone through. Re packed and bunjied. Went to breakfast. Went back to dads. Loaded all 4 million cinder blockes he wanted to keep and transport up there. (my ass) Went to storage shed, went through everything. Loaded what he wanted to give to guy and trash up. Went out to guys, unloaded suburban, left him the 4 million cinder blocks to build a bbq pit he wanted too. Told dad, it would be cheaper to buy more cinder blocks then to haul the son of a bitches. Went back to storage shed, packed everything up in suburban. Went to dads. Loaded his tracker with 1/2 of storage shed stuff. Put a few things in front yard till in the morning. Dad and Gigantor went to get some lunch, while I iced me knee, and repacked the three cupboards dad unpacked just a few minutes before. Ate lunch. Went to visit the friend I had seen to see her house and other kid. Dad stayed, waited for propane guy to come take giant tank. Gone about an hour. Back to dads. Re packed cupboards for 5 thousandth time. Table and bench area big mess, dad went through everything again. Finally had had it. Yelled at dad to knock it off, nothing couldn't wait till when we got up here for one more day. Worked on defrosting fridge and freezer. Gigantor and dad back to walmart, for more stuff. Kiddo lugged in giant ice chest, and helped me bubble wrap dishes and pack in ice chest. Straightened bench seat/table area. Informed everyone when they got back, that it better be the last time I have to repack and bunjie the cupboards and straighten that area for hauling. Get suitcases out for him to pack some clothes for here. (he has to stay at my house for about a week or so till we get his trailer all hooked up, and utilities on). Went to dinner. Back and went through locked box we found in storage shed. Found grandma's coin and money collection that everyone thought was stolen. Found some canadian and us paper money dated from 1920 to 1933. Need to find out what that's worth. Found some confederate money. Found tons of coins. Mostly silver dollars. Most dating from 1881 to 1909. Decided to put box away and go back out to guys to get some sleep. Dad gets out his three lock boxes and starts going through them and reminiscing. Dad has door blocked off. Finally tell dad to let us out, so we can go to bed. Get out to guys at 11. Put Kiddo to bed. Visit for an hour or so. Go take showers, and get in bed about 1. Alarm goes off 4:30. Start packing all our stuff up. Leave guys at about 5:45. Get to dads, re pack some stuff. While I'm doing that, Gigantor starts unhooking utilities. Turn off sewer and water. I have to pee. Dad drives me to convenience store. After using potty and getting munchies for trip. Find out back of tracker is open. Gigantor was in it for tools, we drove up town with it open. Lost my pillows. Back to dads, Gigantor not finished yet. Broke crank on tongue of trailer. Have to use a screw driver and takes almost an hour to get that post thing up far enough to drive with it. Get everything locked up. Gigantor drives it for about 5 miles so I can get the feel of it. Pulls off. I drive it for the next 11 hours and 52 minutes. We pulled into my place at almost 9. Parked trailer on street, got pizza, ate, and went to bed. Got up today, and did a few things. Got the trailer unhooked, but not much else. I'm back in my arm brace, cuz fighting that trailer all day yesterday, hurt me. And I'm having a hard time with my knee. But all in all, it's all good.

Hope to catch up with you all soon.

Back on Saturday

I think we got everything ready to go except the suit cases. Then we are leaving early tomorrow morning, and we won't be home till Saturday.

I took the suburban in for a safety check yesterday. And they found a HUGE leak in the rear axle. I had to have that fixed and the rear brakes replaced, because the leak ruined them. So....that was about 350 bucks. ouch.

But anyway I hear, that there is going to be a big storm coming through in the next couple days. I hope it stays clear for us driving.

Just keep us all in your good wishes and prayers traveling.

I'll be back Saturday, and post soon with some of the many adventures. (yeah right, like my life is that exciting)

Have a good week, and weekend everyone!!!!

Countdown to Driving Hell

First of all....HAPPY ST. PATRICKS DAY ALL!!!!!

2nd...Kiddo is doing tons better. He went back to school on Thursday and today, now he has a week off for spring break. Little shit.

My tailbone is ready to pop out my ass, let me tell ya. I finally got an appointment with the chiro on Thursday, and he sure had to work for his money. He told me my lower back/tailbone and both hips were way out. And he worked my tail off (hehehe pun intended) And I was so sore, I could barely walk. Came home and put ice on it. But it didn't hurt as bad, just sore from all the work. Well...today has been like torture. And I know sometimes it feels a little worse before it gets better. So...I have another appointment on Monday. I sure as hell hope he fixes it before the big drive/move, cuz then I'll be in ass hell!!!!

We are headed to Captain Daddies on Wed (9 hours away) He was gonna have a friend haul his big ass travel trailer up here. And we were gonna hook up a small trailer and haul all his storage shed stuff up. And Gigantor was going to drive dad's little Tracker. I've hauled a very full horse trailer before, full of horses, and then furniture. Moving me then Alekx. So... the small trailer wouldn't bug me at all to haul. Well...Captain Daddy called tonight, and guess what??? The guy had surgery and can't haul the travel trailer. This is the same guy that would know how to unhook it from all the park hookups (he has it hooked up like a regular mobile home) and who would help us set it back up. So...what to do now, what to do. All we can think of, is.. I called and made an appointment to get the suburban checked out, full safety check for hauling. And for hauling heavy stuff. Got that set up for Monday. And now we are going down, gonna have to find someone to unhook everything. And I'm gonna hook that son of a bitch up to my massive big assed suburban. I got the 3/4 ton suburban so it should be fine. But....that means we have to leave the stuff in his storage shed for a couple or three months, till him and Gigantor can go back down and get it. And it also means that instead of hauling a nice small trailer, that I would be confident with. I have to haul a big assed 8 foot by 20 foot travel trailer. I can't drive daddy's tracker, it's so small, and with my knees and ankles and it's a stick, so it would cause so much pain. So...I'm stuck hauling the bitch. (no I don't mean me). And I'll probably be alone except for Kiddo, cuz Gigantor and Daddy will be in the Tracker. That makes me a little nervous too. Cuz if something goes wrong. 1..I don't want to kill the kid, and 2..I don't have anyone there to tell me what to do. I'll probably be fine, I'll just give myself an ulcer till we get home. hehehehe

We are gonna have such a busy weekend before we have to leave on Wednesday morning. What I hate most about that dam drive is how long it takes, and I have to drive through (not around but through) phoenix metropolitan area, and Tucson (remember I'm from a very small town, 5 whole stop lights) And on the way back, it's probably gonna take much longer than the 9 hours because of the hauling. But this weekend, we have to completely clean my house for Captain Daddy and his patches to stay here till we get his place hooked up. We have to clean the suburban out for the trip. We have to go up to mom's , and take down a fence, get her two outdoor water pipes capped off (leaks) and get the back mowed and her truck moved, so Daddies trailer can go in there. We have to do some shopping, I'm out of everything. We have to go get a couple tranqualizers from the vet for little Patches. We have to clean the pet carrier. We have to clean our own yard. And we have to set up the guy who is pet watching with instructions and keys.

Anyway, I gave myself a headache talking about all that. And my ass aches, so I'm gonna go.

OooO one last little tidbit of info. Warm diet pepsi with lime, burns as bad as real coke when it comes out of your nose. hehehehehe

Have a good weekend everyone!!!

What a Week

Man what a week I'm having. We all are having. Kiddo kept getting sicker and sicker over the weekend. We took him to the doctor on Monday. He has bronchitis and a respiratory infection. So...he stayed out of school Monday and Tuesday. I thought we would go back to school today. But he woke up really snuffly, and coughing pretty bad. So..I decided to keep him home one more day, and to get more antibiotics in him.

Last night was the weirdest night. I didn't sleep at all. I layed there and layed there, listening to my music, so I wouldn't hear the three dogs, one cat, and husband all snoring. Hubbies alarm went off at 4. I sat there wondering if I would get any sleep at all. So....I jumped his bones, sent him off with a good morning. In hopes I would tire myself out enough to get some sleep. I actually didn't fall asleep till almost 6:30 Then I woke up at 8. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

We have alot to do this weekend, to get all ready for Captian Daddy getting here next week. Wish us luck and good travels. hehehehe

I'm off to go sit on the couch and see if I can squeeze a nap out. hehehehe

Happy hump day all!!!

Movie review, and sickies.

Well, we went and saw Eight Below at the theater on Thursday night. What a great movie. Although it did make me cry three times. And with me being in this emotional flux. I didn't handle that to well. And the movie, or the depression I felt from the movie haunted me most the day Friday.

I went and got my nails done Friday, they ROCK!!! I did two colors, light green and bright green and both of them have really bright green glitter in them. I alternated the colors, so light green on my thumb,bright green on the first finger, etc....then did the opposite for the other hand. Then we found shamrock decals, and put dark green outlined in light green on the bright green nails. And light green outlined in dark green on the light green nails. It was so simple, yet they ROCK I tell ya.

Picked Kiddo up from school on Friday, and he wasn't feeling to well. Coughing and snuffling. By last night he was running a pretty good sized fever. Doped him up, and said we would take him to the doctor this morning. Got up, and his temp was 95.9. And he wasn't snuffly, but had a small cough. Decided to just give him some meds and leave it alone.

We went ahead and all went to see The Shaggy Dog. OMG what a good funny, and good movie!!! Did I say it was good??? hehehehe

Got out of the movie and Kiddo wasn't feeling to well again. He isn't running a fever, but his cough is much worse, and he's all stuffy again. Gave him more meds, and trying to make him rest. Gonna dope him up again at night. He's got codeine cough syrup.

OMG and what the hell is going on with the weather. It's been in it's 70's here for about 3 weeks. Then out of the blue this winter storm blew in. News was saying it was the worst one they had seen in years. Flagstaff was expected to get 3 to 4 feet of snow in one night. And up here, where it hardly ever snows. It snowed all night last night, we woke up to 3 inches on the ground and it snowed most the day today. Never got out of it's 30's. The sky cleared up for a few hours, melted all the snow off. Now it's all cloudy and very very cold again. Bet it snows again tonight.

Well...that's all I've got for now. Hope you all are having a great weekend!!!

I'm Blind AHHHHHHHHHH

Not really, but I can't see right now so does that count??? My fucking left eye. grrrrrrrr On Sunday it was burning a little. On Monday I got an eyelash in it, and it burned all day. So bad, that I made Gigantor go get me some eye drops at about 10 that night. Those soothed it. Well...Tuesday was better, and Wednesday my eye was fine. Today, it's burning so bad, I can't fricken see out of it. Everything is fuzzy out of it. I don't know what the hell is going on with it, but it's pissing me the hell off.

I'm gonna take Kiddo and his friend Big J to the movies tonight. We are gonna watch Eight Below. It looks cute. I'm taking Gigantor too. But I don't thing it counts, cuz I think he will probably sleep through it. He is so solar powered it's not even funny. It's irritating is what it is. So...not only will it be night, but it will be in a dark theater. I'm gonna have to sit there the entire movie and elbow him for snoring. I hate spending money to take someone to the theater to sleep. I guess I shouldn't bitch to much though, cuz last movie we all went too. Both Gigantor and I fell asleep. It was Hoodwinked. I couldn't keep my flippen eyes open, and that's not usually like me.

Let me confess something to you all. If I don't get sex from my husband soon, I'm gonna STAB him in the eye with a pencil. I'm one frustrated mama let me tell ya. Stupid ass man keeps saying he's to tired, even when I work my ass off and get him in bed by fricken 9. He keeps saying that, then we he tries to get frisky it's always that time of the month for me. The son of a goat!!!!! But I am getting pissed off. Cuz since my mom died (jan 17th) He's put out twice!!! YEP THAT'S ONLY TWO TIMES, AND THAT'S DAM NOT ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!

Okay done with my rant. I'm gonna go spank the dogs and kick the kids. Happy Thursday everyone!!!

Note to self, don't forget to record survivor, csi and without a trace. hehehehehe

No Coherent Thought

I just have randomness again. hehehehe

The boys did excellent on their hunter safety course. Kiddo was actually a year to young, so he only gets a certificate of completion instead of a diploma. I really thought he wasn't gonna pass this year. But that was okay. hehehe But after Saturdays field day. I knew kiddo has found his niche. He took the hike and was very safe with his fire arm. He then went and shot a 243, a 50 cal black powder rifle. And then shot at clays with a 12 gauge, and 20 gauge and a 410. He shot two out of 3 clays with the 410. He's still a little small for the 12 and 20 gauge. He then went and shot a bow for the very first time, and was less than 1/2 inch from the bullseye with his first shot. Then they had there written test last night. Kiddo got an 88% whooooohoooooo Gigantor got 100%. I'm so proud *insert huge teethy mom grin here*

Okay here is where I sound heartless. My dog is pissing me the hell off. I'm so irritated with him. I know he is way way old, and on his last legs. But dammit, stop stinking, stop licking, stop limping, stop acting weird, and just chill the flip out. I know he can't, but had to get that out. Poor baby, having urinary problems a little, and no matter how much we wash or change his diet, he just stinks, and bad. I now need to clean my carpets, cuz the stink is in the house. And he licks his fricken foot like 24/7 I've had him checked at the vet multiple times. Nothing wrong with is foot, no other pain, that is manifesting with his licking, and nothing wrong with his tongue, he just licks. I constantly have a wet spot on the floor from his licking. I kick him out, when he keeps it up to much. Which isn't a bad thing. Cuz I think spring is here. We have been well up into our high 60's. Even wearing t-shirts with no coats now. And having to leave the door open a good part of the day.

This weekend we are going to have to trim the trees, at our place and at mom's. We also have to get mom's yard ready to put dad's travel trailer up on it. Looks like we have almost every thing else arranged for him moving up. We have time off, and a place to stay. I just need to find someone to run the sewer line for his little trailer.

Did you all know that if you choke on a hot tamale candy and it gets stuck in your sinus cavity, that it burns all fricken day??? ouch. hehehehe

Okay I've ran out of anything to say. I was gonna say anything of interest to say. But then I realized all I said probably wasn't interesting anyway. hehehehe

Have a good Tuesday everyone!!!

Information

Hi there. hehehehe For any of you who might want to know. I was talking with my friend Kerry last night (who has also lost her mom), and we were talking about the many emotions and feelings one goes through. We came up with this idea (I won't say good idea yet or not) of starting a blog where people who have lost their mothers can go and vent, rage, yell, cry, and get comfort. I know I am going through tons of emotions, and not sure how to deal with them all. I know I need some counseling too. Possibly from my preacher. But...I'm also a person that NEEDS to show outer strength. But...I'm afraid in this instance, that if I keep it all bottled in. I may end up in the hospital.

So...any whoooo back on track. We decided to start a blog, where we could go write, and rant.

I just wanted to let you all know in case you want to drop by. Or if any of you have lost your mothers and would like to come and be part of it. Please let me or Kerry know and we will send you an invite. I will be sending you one Alekx, as soon as I know what e-mail you want it too. hehehehe

Okay so here is the link for anyone that wishes to see. Motherless Daughters

Have a good Friday everyone!!!
