Memorial Weekend

This was a nice, long weekend. Had friends to BBQ, ate a few hot dogs, drank a few glasses of wine,Hubs watched old War movies, and we pulled out the pools. We had a bigger pool for the bigger kids, but after 3 times blowing it up and watching it deflate, I figured it had a leak. And I am much to lazy to go around trying to find a pin size hole to patch. So it got dumped. As you can see though, the kiddies had fun anyways in their baby pools! lol

Today I believe we are making an offer on the house. We went and looked at that other home (the barn house) on 5 acres, but as soon as we walked in, it was a definite NO! lol We feel like the other home may be meant for us. We have allot of things we want to do to it to make it our own. I have come to the realization that it will be allot of work, but it is going to take a long time to get it to what I see it as in my head. That's OK though, it will be ours and we have that option to take our time. No one to tell us how to do it, or when or why. I am still nervous, but anxious to get the process started and do some hard work. I am especially anxious to get out from under Sir Raise our Rent's house, and tell him to stick it where the sun don't shine! lol

Torn, confused, scared, all that good BS

Last night, Hubs and I went to look at a house we'd been interested in. It's a beautiful house, with almost 3 acres of land. It's on a dirt road, out in the middle of nowhere. I absolutely love that aspect of it. I get butterflies in my stomach though, thinking of all the crap you have to do to buy a home. How much money you have to spend, and all the legalities that go along with it. We really like the home itself, the only bad thing is that it is an older manufactured home, so some parts of it you get the "trailer" feeling on the inside. For instance, the walls are panelled. I HATE that. But then it is so open and big and kitchen is so cute, you wouldn't even think that it was a manufactured home. It would definitely get repainted, and new carpeting and of course new window treatments. But then you go outdoors and the acreage just goes on and on. There were quails and jackrabbits everywhere. They have the acres sectioned off right now, but we decided if we do buy it we will take out all the fencing (except the fence that surrounds the whole property) and just make it one open chunk of land. It's beautiful out there. No highways close by, nothing but horse land, and a couple neighbors up the road. This is what I have been wanting for the last 10 years. With growing up on a farm, I have missed living in the middle of nothing. Where I don't have to worry about my kids getting hit by cars, and just letting them go out to play without worry. I love the fact that you smell manure outside, and pine trees. Yes, it has trees. Do you know how long it has been since I have lived somewhere with trees all around?? A long, long time. But it would need allot of work and money. And with me being the way I am, I couldn't let shit go undone. I am so torn. The land itself is worth the money, and this property is very cheap. Any and all advice is much appreciated. Oh and we may also be looking at another property tonight. This one has almost 5 acres of land and the house looks like a barn, but hey we gotta keep our options open ya know?? Who knows! lol

Onto other news, Baby Chubby is finally getting up on his feet. Well he has been for about a month now, but he's getting more and more independent. That's right 16 months and he's still not walking. The others did the same thing though, so I know before to long he will be running around the house. This morning Crazy Chubby was trying to help him get up on the chair with him. I love it when they are nice to each other! It's rare! lol


Oh and today I am another year older! Wouldn't it be a nice gift to find a house?? lol

LOST

Last nights season finale of LOST was great! It was emotional, crazy, and had me throwing my fists in the air shouting "Hell yah, beat the shit out of him Jack!!" lol Although poor Charlie died (which had me tearing up) it was still good to see more of the "Others" offed then our characters! I can't wait to see what's in store for next season!

Pink Chubbies Everywhere

You see the new pics? Aren't they cute? I love pigs. I think they are the cutest little things. Well when they are babies anyways. We call them pink chubbies. That's right. Every time we are driving down the highway, and see a semi full of pigs we say "Look, it's pink chubbies". I don't know or remember how it got started, but that's what they are. Pink Chubbies.

Tonight is the LOST season finale. I am so excited. I can't wait to see who dies and what's in store for next season.

On a sadder note, our neighbor died. She was a very sweet, old lady. It's that damn cancer again. Granted, she was older, but I know she would have had many more years if it wasn't for that damn blasted disease. She was such a sweet lady. She would always ask us how we were and how the kids were when we'd see her out getting her mail. She'd wave and talk idle chit chat when we would be out doing the lawn work. It's sad.

On a much lighter note, the kids may get chicken pox! lol My neighbor came over to inform me that her two kids have it, and to be on the watch for it. Our kids play together all the time, and Crazy and her little girl just played together yesterday. It kind of freaks me out. I mean, I remember having it as a kid, but these days it seems like they have made it out to be something bigger and more serious. Just like with the flu. When I was a kid, you laid there, puked your guts up, drank water and cola syrup for the upset stomach, puked again, fell asleep and the next day you felt better. These days you have to go to the docs for the flu, get some sort of prescription meds and God forbid you don't get the flu shot or you might keel over and die. So in other words, it worries me a bit, I mean about the pox, but like Hubs said, it's better they get it now then when they are adults. So I guess I will be calling on Ma to see how she handled it. If she even remembers! lol

Cryin

Well my Boys in Red didn't win tonight's game. That's right, my damn post jinxed em. It's all my fault. I feel so....so....UGHHH! Words can't express how depressed, saddened, and anguished I feel over this loss. In my opinion the hockey season is officially over. OK enough of that. I'm over it!

Onto other news.....

Yaaaaahhhhh,not a damn thing!

Holy shit, is there any possible way to shove a child back up into your loins???? Because I swear if I hear "Mama" one more time in that whining, nasaly, crying with snot dripping out of the nose way, I will take the kid and put him back where he came from.

Jinx

I will not mention in this post anything related to my men in Red. This is because I have noticed a pattern. When I mention the men in Red in a post before the game, they seem to lose. When I wait to trash talk, they usually win! So there, that's all I have to say about that.

Onto other news.....

*silence*

*wracking brain for any news*

*tapping fingers on desk*

*nothing...shit*

Ok well, that's all I have to say.

Wait..Wait..Wait...

Ahh yes, I forgot to mention we got a new water heater yesterday. Big news huh?? Yah, I thought so. But yes..we did and I don't know why we did. Sir Raise our Rent has decided that he needed it updated. Well that's all fine and good. But I hope he doesn't think that that justifies raising our rent by a 100 bucks.

It's a pattern you see. Whenever Sir Raise our Rent has something done to the house it never fails that we hear some smack talk from the business with whom he hired to do the job. For instance, when he had the roof replaced, the men insisted that he would not stop calling them and they wondered if he does that to us. When he had the tree out front chopped down, he showed up when the men arrived and called them lazy. Needless to say, dirty looks and price raising was in the works. When these poor plumbers come out just to do their jobs, he calls them Stupid. And that was because they got the address wrong and thought they were suppose to go to his house and not his renters house. No big deal really, but I guess they got quite a few phone calls with Sir Raise our Rent ranting in his barely audible Asian accent.

So what do I do with these people whom come only to do their jobs but get nothing but slack from Sir Raise our Rent?? I offer them anything their hearts desire. Food? Water? My first born child?? I firmly believe that even though Sir Raise our Rent is a complete jackass, I will get on the goodside of every small business owner in the area. It's just like when TMO would come and move our stuff. Do you think I ever talked smack? Do you think I ever sat over their shoulders and knit picked about how they were packing?? Hell NO!! I offered food, water and treated them like they were gods. That's the trick. You be nice and offering, they be SUPER DUPER nice to your belongings. And if you are really nice, they will even double and triple wrap your priceless objects that can't be replaced.

I also believe in Karma. Someday, Sir Raise our Rent will be bit in the ass for how he treats these poor men that he hires, and also how he treats his tenants. I firmly believe that!

Look at my new Bling!

Ok, so this week is my birthday. My Sissy sent me this beautiful, pink necklace that I had picked out when she was having her Lia Sophia parties. I absolutely hate posting pictures of myself, but I just had to show it off! Plus it doesn't really go with the lovely teal shirt I am wearing, but that's ok, I am still wearing it.



Man...I look like crap.

Bust

Game 5 didn't go so hot! We are still looking forward to game 6. If it's a loss, it's those damn ducks chance at the cup. I hope we win!

Game 5 this afternoon! Go WINGS!

Warre's Otima

Wow, wine hangovers suck!

Drank only 3 glasses of good port last night and I am not feeling very happy this morning.

Felt fine when I woke up. Ate breakfast, starting cleaning.

Then it hit me.

Of course I have made numerous trips to the latrine, and it wasn't to throw up!

Immodium is calling me.

It's been to long since I have drank. Lets just say Baby Boy didn't get the boobies last night.

He got them today though, lets see how this plays out into tonight.

Will he be a little tipsy??? lol

First Attempt

I tried, nobody can say I didn't! I went to go to my first Weight Watchers meeting tonight. I get there only to find out it had been cancelled. Bastards. I guess I will try again next week.

Looking for a house still. Getting really frustrated. Seems every time we pass up on a house because it's to expensive, we find out someone got it for a really good, dirt cheap price. What the hell? Is it because we are white? I don't mean to be prejudice or anything, but come on, we are mostly surrounded by Mexicans in this area of California, and it seems we are always beat out by someone who is Mexican. We seem to be the minority in this part. It's really starting to piss me off! I am sick of renting, I am sick of our piece of shit landlord, and I am sick of putting money into his pocket every month. Not to mention the asshole just raised our rent by a 100 bucks! It's always something isn't it?

It's game 4 tonight. I am keeping my fingers crossed!

In other news...

Nadda!

Well I guess it is great that the baby slept through the night, but holy shit, he's 16 months, don't ya think he should have been doing that a LONG time ago?? Umm...I do! The other kids started around 6 months, but this one...he's my stinker.

But since he decided to sleep through the night, the other one didn't. Crazy woke up twice in search of his damn nuk. The second time he comes into our room, wakes me up and says "Momma, I can't sweep!" My response. "Crazy, go to bed!" "But Momma, I can't SWEEEEP!" "I don't care! Go to bed!" to which he finally did!

I woke up this morning only to find Crazy hiding behind my couch with a mouth full of dum dum suckers. The little shit climbed up on the counter, and got my jar of lollipops. He must have ate 3 or 4 before I caught him because there were wrappers everywhere, and a couple sticks. What he did with the others, I haven't a clue. I am sure I will find them stuck to something sooner or later.

I Believe I can FLY...

That's right ladies and gents...I believe I can fly because my boys, the Detroit Red Wings won game 3 against those stinky ol Anaheim Ducks! 5 whopping ones to a big fat 0!!! I love my Wings, and do believe if I had the chance, I would kiss every single one of them (even the ones with the missing teeth, bruised faces, fat lips, and just the overall ugly ones!)

GO WINGS!

Besides for that exciting news, not a damn thing happening over here in To Hot Shit Hole. Crazy Boy has pushed me to the edge. His constant whining and talking just doesn't stop. I think to myself everyday how the hell can I shut him up? He's one of those annoying children that will walk right in front of you while you are talking to someone and just yap, yap, yap. I HATE that! So what is my solution for that you ask?? I push him on his ass till he's out of my way. I refuse to respond to him when he does that. He's slowly getting the clue. Hopefully I don't knock something loose in there in the process! lol

I think I am going to start Weight Watchers. I have heard nothing but good things about it, and I am so sick of being disgusted with myself. Ever since I was a kid, I have had a bad self image. I was picked on allot even when I wasn't chubby, and it has taken it's toll on me as an adult. I am so afraid that the way I see myself will start to affect the way my daughter feels about herself. I try my hardest to avoid any and all subjects of weight and crap around her. But I totally believe she picks up on it. So anyways, I believe I am going to start Friday. I guess we'll see how that goes. I REALLY want to be one of those people though, that can go back home and say look at me, and not be afraid to go out in public for fear of old classmates and shit seeing me. That would just be wonderful! Wish me luck guys (and gals lol)!!!

Bullets or Stars...Whatever

* Today was Baby Boy's 15 month shots. Ouch to say the least!

* Crazy is doing very good on the pot, but has this thing where if I don't go in there with him, he just pees in his pants.

* Baby Boy has taken to beating up Crazy.

* Crazy whines and cries all the time because Baby Boy is "hurting my bwain!" (translation, he is hitting him in the head. Usually with a hard object such as his plastic bat, or a remote!)

* Sunday is Mother's Day. Nothing special planned except for spending the weekend with my lovely/crazy offspring and husband.

* Girly is having lots of "friend" problems at school. Girls seem allot more vicious now days then when I was a little girl!! One little girl called her "white trash".

* These said "friend" problems are causing allot of grade problems and we are stumped on how to deal with them!

* Those said problems are also causing her to be the biggest, little witch. She is being snotty, defiant, lying and being extremely mean to her brothers. This is easily solved with a quick, swift kick in the ass. I don't tolerate snottiness or lying!! I can tolerate the eye rolling (I am the queen), but when you lie to my face, you WILL regret it. Daddy also despises liars, so she gets it double time!

* I have come to the realization that playing dead only works for animals and not for Me. I have tried several times to play dead so my kids will leave me alone and it just doesn't seem to work. I even lie there motionless, with my eyes closed and have even went a step further and held my breath. DOES NOT WORK. Only makes me lightheaded. Plus they must think it's more fun to crawl and jump all over dead people because I become their trampoline as soon as I try this.

* I LOVE Starbucks White Chocolate Mochas. I haven't gone a day this week without getting one! lol

* I hate dusting, yet this week I dusted the house from top to bottom.

* I also vacuumed out 2 inch thick layers of sand from my windows (yes sand, not dust! lol)

* Did I mention I despise dusting?? Ok, well I do!!

* Hubs went away for a couple days for work this week. Made me wonder how the hell I did it when he was gone for months on end in the Corps!

* Baby Boy is finally attempting to get on his feet and walk. It's about damn time! lol


* We need diapers and wipes. So off to Walmart I have to go. I hate that store!

* Holy Crap...Crazy just found my beloved Ladybug lighter! I have been looking for this since last weekend! I love ladybugs and even have one tattooed on my hand. So this lighter is my life!! lol Gosh that makes me sound like a real, boring, looser without a life except for her ladybug lighter. Hmmm, scratch all that.

* Oh and Happy Mother's Day to all you Mommas and Mommas to be out there! Have a Great Weekend!

* Oh also....

GO WINGS, IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!! LOL

Wow

I just read this story on MSN, and holy shit if I didn't laugh my ass off! How stupid can people be?


VILNIUS, Lithuania - Climbing into a giraffe's cage at the local zoo seemed a good idea after a few drinks. But the prank went wrong when the 1.3-ton animal flew into a rage and attacked the three student trespassers at a zoo in Lithuania on Monday night.

Ruta Greiciute, a 22-year-old student at Kaunas Technology University, was hospitalized with a broken collar bone and nose after the 9-year-old male giraffe, named Solut, attacked her.

The other students survived the incident unscathed.


"This was a very silly thing they did. The scared giraffe could have stomped her to death," Kaunas Zoo spokeswoman Angele Grebliauskaite said.


The zoo reported that many animals had been disturbed Monday night as students celebrated a festival in a nearby condominium.

Police have launched an investigation to find out how the intoxicated students entered the zoo at night and climbed the 10 foot high fence surrounding the giraffe cage.


So do you think they were like:

"Oh wow, lets go see that giraffe up close. Come on the pen is right here!"

*scales fence and hops into pen. Falls on face. Stumbles onto feet. Walks closer to giraffe*

"Duuuuude, it's huge!"

"Yah Man, I dare you to touch it!"

"Hell No Man, you touch it!"

"No You touch it!"

"Ummmm....Ok."

*walks up to giraffe and reaches out to touch it*

*BAM, CRASH, STOMP, STOMP, STOMP*

"AHHHHHHHHHHH, SHIT GET IT OFF!!"

Other Guy: snicker, snicker, then runs away.



Complete idiots I tell ya!! They deserve everything they got!

Ok Ok

Alrighty, so I am one of those annoying people that can't make up her damn mind! I switched to invited readers this morning, thinking it would make it a little harder for people to find me. Well, it ended up being one big pain in the butt, and I would have to get all ya'll's emails and send you invites. Not that I don't love you all, but shit, I am way to lazy to go and email every damn one of ya's!! lol So once again, I am open to all readers, and I hope you continue to stop on by! Thanks!

Would Anyone Care for Some SHARK SOUP?

My Boys Won the Series!!!!!

"A 12-pack of your favourite pints says the Sharks will win the series little lady, albeit I really do like the Red Wings."

Ok Ben, We are ready for those drinks! lol ;)

My Crazy Baby Turns 3!

This weekend my Crazy Little Boy turns 3! This little boy is my miracle baby. It took us 3 long years to get pregnant with him. We even went to fertility specialists and went on fertility meds, and still nothing. We decided the meds weren't for us and chose to just go with the flow. Go figure as soon as Daddy gets home from a 6 month deployment, BAM he decides it's time to come along! He was a little shit then, and is still a little shit now! I love you my Crazy Little Boy!!

Hide and Seek

I hope everyone finds my new addy ok. I have been having some problems with people getting ahold of my blog that I really don't like reading it.

*Hmmpphhh, clearing my throat and pointing at Hubs*

I don't have any problem with complete strangers reading my shit, or even some family members, but when I got people from Hub's work getting on here and reading my stuff, I just am not comfortable with that crap! Who knows what kind of high school bullshit they may start at work. It's pitiful when you can't even expect a bunch of 30 yr. old plus men to act like adults.

Am I just being paranoid, or does anyone else think it's rational not to want your spouses co-workers reading your blog??

That's What I'm Talking About BABEEEE!

Oh yeah, the WINGS pulled it off! That was one hell of a game!! It's Tied up now!

Wooohooo!

Ok Ladies and Gents...

Tonight is once again time to face off. That's right. It's Wings vs. Sharks time again. I am rooting for my WINGS all the way. I am willing to accept any and all bets on the subject. And, I am also not responsible for what I say on this blog! lol
GO WINGS!

"Siggghhhh"

Ok jackAsses, so the Wings didn't win. I know...I guess the Wings gear just wasn't enough. But.....they are still in it. They play those damn Sharks again sometime this week in game 4. This one they WILL win! lol I have faith. ANY and ALL smart alleck remarks can be directed to my ASS!!! Thank you very much!
