Pink & Purple Fairy

Saturday we went to Build-A-Bear Workshop. Youngest Princess had gotten a gift card for there for Christmas. She made a beeline for this cute little pink and purple bear. I tried to show her the other ones she could pick, but she had blinders on. This was the bear for her!

First she got to stuff it:

Then she got to put the bear's heart in:






Then the bear got an air bath and a good brushing:








Finally she got to not be naked anymore. Youngest Princess picked out a fairy costume and a Princess Aurora costume for her buddy:






Finally, our purchase was done. "Pink & Purple Fairy" was now a part of our family!

Sickies

Well, Oldest Princess has a sinus infection and her chest is tight according to the doctor. So she got prescriptions for Amoxicillin and Albuterol. My mom had to take her to the doctor because I was working. I told my mom to just take the scrips to Walmart, they should just be $4 scrips. Craig went after he got back in town to go pick them up. They were going to be $32 a piece!!! So, because the girls' insurance doesn't do Walmart, I screwed up. I just figured it'd be $8. *sigh* So today I get to call the doc and get new prescriptions sent to Walgreens. GRRRRRRRR

The OC

Yep, I watched The OC. It was one of my favorite shows. I even have Season 1 and Season 2 on DVD. I didn't get Season 3 for Christmas, but I will be getting it and of course, now, Season 4 as well. The last episode was last week. I wasn't thrilled with that episode. It seemed too jumbled with them trying to close everything up. It was usually such a well-written show. If that last episode would have been a regular episode, I would have thought it "jumped the shark". Anyway, I am sad that it's no longer in my Thursday night lineup, but I do admit that I couldn't get into the whole Ryan/Taylor thing. It kind of lost something after Marissa died.

Flashback

Anyone remember this post? Yep, I had it again tonight! Yummmmmmmy!!

Cadbury Eggs

Hey! It's that time again! Time for Cadbury Eggs and that cute little bunny that lays the eggs. Mmmmmmmmmmm While at Target today, I got a pack of the regular size eggs and a pack of the one dozen mini creme eggs. Woohoo!!

We're Nerds

My husband is a nerd. Yes, he is. He has programmed our remote to run the Roomba.

I was giving him a hard time about being such a nerd when he brought up the fact that I was walking around watching the Roomba vacuum my floor. Bahahahaha

Hmm, wonder which of us is the bigger nerd? Wait! Don't answer that.

Rumors, Rumors

So, I heard through the grapevine that PayPerPost, you know, the site that pays you for online advertising, has some big news, but I don't know what exactly that is.

I'm wondering if it will be double payouts on some opportunities! Wouldn't that be great? Ooooh just think what I could do with all that moola!

Or maybe a trip to any destination that one lucky winner (and a dozen of their closest friends) chooses! Oh man, what a dream that would be! Anyone care to guess where I'd pick? Not very hard to figure out, I'd be going to Walt Disney World! But, since I was in the area, I'd probably have to stop by PayPerPost HQ too!

Or maybe a new car! It would be painted green with PayPerPost logos on the side. Maybe it'll be a Hummer! A real one, not an H2 or H3, but the big daddy of all Hummers!

Or maybe a PayPerPost tour bus going around visiting posties. So many possibilities!

Well, I'm sure it's got to be one of those ideas above, or else the big news might be that Ted, the CEO of PayPerPost, has been abducted by aliens, was brainwashed on their spaceship and now has three nipples, twelve fingers and a horn growing out of the top of his head. Yeah, I think I hit the nail on the head! That's got to be it! Don't you think?

Coolness

I was browsing blogs and I was at Purple Wren's when I saw she had posted Montage-a-Google. It makes nifty little things like these:

Cool, huh?

Real Friends

I just had the best chat with 3 awesome online/IRL friends. It was so much fun, laughing and giving each other a hard time! I needed to laugh like that. It made some other garbage really insignificant and that's a good thing.

Friends???

Gee, you just don't know who to trust anymore, do ya? Some people just don't get it, do they? Oh well, I think these certain people have to lash out at others because of their own unhappiness. I know that I AM happy and secure in my life/marriage, so these people aren't worth my time and effort. I wish them well and hope they can find their inner peace before it costs them all their friends.

Shutdown Day

I was reading over at Julie's and read about Shut Down Day. March 24th is supposed to be shut down the computer day. Go to the website and vote if you can do it or not. I voted that I couldn't. LOL I'm an addict!

Look at Cyndi

Go look at Cyndi, she made one of those cool little widgets like I made. I need to go add some more things to it.

Cute Little Widget

Look at this cool little Box.net Widget I came across:

Get your own Box.net widget and share anywhere!

Its a flash player that streams media. You can upload videos, music, photos, and even podcasts! They offer unlimited bandwidth and will host 1G of files for you! All for free!

So go check it out and let me know when you've done it so I can come check it out!

I'm Spoiled

Yes, I'm spoiled. I admit it. My Cherokee needed gas. It was on empty and the low gas light and buzzer were on. My wonderful husband offered to take the Jeep today and fill it up and then take it to work if I took his truck today. You've got yourself a deal, buddy! I don't know why, but I H.A.T.E. getting gas. He also said that I should have told him last night that it needed gas and he would have gone and gotten it last night. I'm spoiled and I know it! :)

Online Dolls

My youngest princess has gotten into playing on the computer lately. She's pretty good at it too! She would love to create dolls online. I'm sure even Oldest Princess would like to play Dress Up Games too.

There's a great site where you can make cute little dolls like these:

Aren't they great? You can play dress-up games and make avatars that you can use in forums, chats or even fashion competitions! What a fun way to play dolls! Sure beats paper dolls where the clothes won't ever stay on.

There are so many options to choose from! They have gothic dolls, mermaid dolls, princesses (a favorite here in our house), pirates, babies and even holiday dolls! You can even make one to look like your favorite celebrity! There are so many options to choose from! The only limit is your imagination!

I created a cute little doll in no-time flat! My doll is on the red carpet wearing a gorgeous formal gown and her name is Tricia. I can't wait to go play some games with my little princess doll.

My princesses are really going to love this website! Even I had a blast making dolls! Go make one and we'll have to play in competition sometime!

We're Skippers

Well, we're skipping out on dance class today. Youngest Princess is still coughing and stuffy. I'm sure the other parents would appreciate it. LOL Hopefully, one day soon, she'll be over this darn cold!! I called the doctor on Friday but they said even though she's had it so long, if she doesn't have a fever and she seems to be feeling ok, she's probably ok. She's been acting just fine all this while, just stuffy and coughing. I keep thinking every day she's getting better but then she starts coughing a ton. LOL

Let There Be Light!

Our house needs one thing more than any other. It needs light! For whatever reason, there are no overhead lights in the living room or the family room, so we have to depend on lamps. Our lamps cast shadows, so I would love to have something like this wall mount fluorescent light on the wall behind the couch. Isn't it pretty? I like the brushed nickel look. There are many others on the http://www.shoppremier.com website that I would love to have in my home.

I would love to have some new Bathroom lights as well. It's so hard to get ready for the day with the light fixture we have. I would love to have something like this in our bathroom. Isn't that a cool fixture?

Whew, what a weekend!

We actually had a 3 day weekend here. We took advantage of that and went with my parents camping at the coast so we could ride the quads. We had a blast. The weather wasn't exactly cooperating but we got a couple of good rides in. Youngest Princess even got to ride the grandkids' quad all by herself! She was really good at it too! She'd just follow anywhere we went. Oldest Princess rode Dad's quad, but was a little apprehensive about it all. We had a few preteen moments too, but overall had a great weekend!

Song Implant

Do you ever get a song stuck in your head? Of course you do, you're human. LOL My best buddy, Cyndi got me the KT Tunstall CD for my birthday. The girls and I have been listening to it in the Jeep. My favorite song is Black Horse & the Cherry Tree (Woo-oooo). It's Youngest Princess's too as we can't just listen to it once, but we have to listen to it numerous times. So anyway, that's the song that's stuck in my head at this very moment. I just thought I'd share a song implant for you too!

Funny Story

After picking up Oldest Princess today, we were on our way home when this "kid" (under 20) pulled up next to us at a stop light in a lowered Honda CRX. He started lurching forward like he was trying to get me to race. Um, first off, I was turning and he was going straight. Secondly, my Cherokee could drive over the top of him. Thirdly, he didn't know who he was messing with. ;) He kept looking over and I just kind of rolled my eyes at him. Little does he know that I used to drag race. Don't worry, not on the street, on the race track. LOL When I was 16, I took Top Eliminator for the whole race. I got a trophy that was probably 3 feet tall. LOL I still have it around here somewhere, probably somewhere in the pit we lovingly refer to as a garage. LOL So anyway, moral of the story is, don't challenge someone to race when you don't know their background. ;)

Get Paid for Reading My Posts!

Are you short on funds? Do you just want a little extra spending money? Did you know you could get paid for reading this very post I wrote? Or any of the other posts on this here blog? Well, guess what???? You can!

Pay Per Post just released a new program for its blog marketing campaign. It's called the Review My Post program. You get paid for reviewing my post and I'll get paid too! It's a win-win for everyone!

Here's how it works:

I write a post. Remember, it can be about anything! It doesn't matter which post you choose to review. Review my review of the latest TV show, or review my posts about my dingy blonde moments. Really, it's up to you!

You click on the link at the bottom of the post that says "Get Paid to Review My Post".

You then sign up with Pay Per Post and write a review of my post and after its been accepted, you just made $7.50. Easy as pie! Well, at least now you can afford a piece of pie! But, as a bonus, you just earned me $7.50 as well! So thanks!

How could you go wrong with a program like this? Don't wait any longer!!! Let's both earn some money!

Ms. Carpenter

Last weekend we happened to go to Lowe's. While we were there, we saw they were having a kids project going on. Craig asked me if Youngest Princess was going to do it. I said that I thought you usually had to preregister for those sort of things. I saw a girl working at it and I asked her. She said, "you don't have to this month, we have extra kits" WOOHOO, Youngest was excited! She got her very own apron and nametag, just like the workers wear, goggles, hammer and her kit. All the tables were full, so we planted our behinds down on the floor. We followed the directions and made a real cute valentine "mailbox" thingy. Youngest had a blast and was very proud of herself. When she was done, she turned in her hammer (got to keep the apron and goggles) and got a certificate of completion and a patch I will sew onto her apron. I didn't have the camera, but I did have a trusty camera phone!

Pay Per Post

Have you heard about Pay Per Post? If you haven't, go check it out. You can make money blogging!

Pay Per Post has rolled out a new update recently. With this update there is some big money to be made! It's called segmentation. If your page rank on your blog is high, you can make as much as $1,000 for one post!! Isn't that incredible? Now not all are that high, but you can sometimes make $25 per post, or even more!

Now don't worry if your page rank isn't high because Pay Per Post has opportunities for you too! You can usually make at least $5 per post but, more often than not, you can make more. But just think, making these posts may help your page rank increase, thusly making you able to take the higher paying opportunities! It's a win-win situation!

No matter which opportunity you take, Pay Per Post does require that when you make a post that you have a simple disclosure statment. No problem!

Compared to other paying blog sites, Pay Per Post takes less of the fee from the advertisers, meaning more money in your pocket! Can't beat that! So head over and check out Pay Per Post and get paid for writing what you want!!

Ignorance is Bliss

You know how you can walk by something day in and day out and you don't notice it anymore? I just now (yes, it's February) realized I still have the Christmas cards that were sent to us taped to the front door. LOL That needs to be on my list of things to do....take the cards down! I could also make a whole list of other things that need to be done around here too. LOL

Hurry Quick!

In case you just came out from under your rock, don't forget that today is Valentine's Day!! Hurry quick and head over to Egreetings.com and get your free funny eCards for Valentine's Day or even a birthday!

Go check it out and send your special someone a Valentine's card like these:

Happy Valentine's Day!

I am so thankful to my wonderful husband. He's put up with so much from me and never really said anything about how awful I was.

I'm talking about before I got my, what I lovingly refer to, happy pills. LOL My anti-depressants. Since I haven't had insurance for 3+ years, I haven't been able to get my prescriptions. But, lack of insurance is a whole nother post ;) Anyway, right after Christmas, I had to go in to see the doctor as I had strep throat. I asked the doctor what I could do, if Target or Wal-Mart had any of meds I could take on their $4 list. My doc was pretty good, she gave me samples of the meds I was taking before and said to call her in a month. Phew! I can't believe the difference in how I feel. I'm actually happy. :) I catch myself smiling now. Anyway, I'm rather long-winded, but I said all that to say that never once did Craig complain about how I was acting. I know he sees the difference because he has asked me a couple times how I think the meds are doing. I tell him how I'm feeling and he agrees that I act/seem like I'm happier. He even asked the pharmacist at Target how much a month's supply is. It's $115 but not as bad as we had thought. He's also a fantastic daddy!! I couldn't have asked for a more involved dad.

I love you, Craig!!

Smilies

Hi Vlad. I got those smileys at Best Smileys.com.

Thanks for stopping by!

It's Tuesday

But guess what?! No dance class today. I stayed home with Youngest Princess today due to her having a bad cold. She'd probably be fine at dance class, but why push it? Especially when I'd love to stay at home? LOL

Let's see, I got the laundry all done, including the sheets on the bed and have remade the bed. I haven't gotten the dishes done yet though....I'm a slacker :)

Thanks

Thanks, Maggie for the comment about Macy's! I found out today though, that the dinner is canceled. Waaaaaaaahhhhh! The dinner was through the church, but they didn't even get 50% of the response that they needed to have so they canceled it. My reasoning is because it was a Thursday night. Oh well, Craig is still getting off work early and coming home and we'll go to dinner somewhere. He asked if I wanted to do it Wednesday and I told him no way! Everything will be too busy. LOL

Poker!

Wow, Craig and his friends would love to have one of these poker tables. Craig and his friends from work get together to play usually once every couple months or so. These tables would be a huge improvement over the card tables they use now. Talk about feeling like you're on the World Poker Tour!

Go check them out, they're beautiful!

Girl Talk...again

Oh boy. I can overhear Oldest Princess on the phone with two of her friends. She IM'd me to tell me they were having a 3-way conversation. LOL Anyway, they're talking about who's hotter....Ben, Some other kid or "Rye Bread", which I have now discovered to be some kid by the name of Rylie. You should hear the squealing coming from her room as one of her friends will say something to the effect of so and so high-fived me today!! I think it's along the lines of "I'll never wash this hand again".

Reverse Cell Phone Lookup

Have you ever looked at your caller ID and wondered who was at the phone number (xxx) xxx-xxxx because it only gave a number and possibly a city/state? Or do you recognize the number, but can't quite remember who that number belongs to and don't want to call it back without knowing exactly who you'll be talking to?

Never, fear, now you can do a Reverse Cell Phone Look Up with this new website! Check it out!

The Beginning of the Week

Happy Monday!!! I only have to work 2 more shifts at job #2 this week. YAHOOOOOOO! I, of course, have the other job, but that's ok. Craig and I are going to a Valentine's dinner on Thursday night. I still need to find something to wear. ACK! I hate that. I've looked at all my normal stores, although, I should go check at Macy's. Hmmm, I wonder when I can find the time LOL

Days of Our Lives Fans

Craig's Aunt is a huge fan of Days of Our Lives. She's even been to a fan convention and has done a scrapbook about her trip. Since she's such a fan, I'm going to pass on this site for Days of Our Lives.

Go check it out! I really like the fact that they're so in tune with their readers. One reader even wrote in and asked for pics of "Kayla's" hair so she could take the pictures to her hairdresser to have her hair cut the same way. The site answered her request! That's great customer service, I'd say!

I also like the way the site is laid out. Very user-friendly. There are separate
sections for updates, news, spoilers and more. I like the fact that I don't have to go hunting for the information I want. I just click on the link and go.

After passing this link on, I'm going to be the favorite niece-in-law!

Strange White Substance

There's this strange white substance on the bathroom counter. I asked Youngest Princess what it was. Was it powder? Her response was, "no, it's toilet paper". Um, ok. Doesn't look like it, but upon closer inspection, it was, indeed, wet, soggy toilet paper. I then asked Youngest why there was wet toilet paper on the counter. You ready for this????


"I was making a snowman". Um, alrighty then.

I hope we don't need to call my dad, the plumber, to do a snowman rescue from the drain. LOL

Send me a Valentine!

Maybe Today

Well, we didn't get our cookies made yesterday. Maybe today. Maybe not.

Youngest Princess got Garfield, Tale of Two Kitties for Christmas, so we've been watching it. Over and over and over and over. You get the drift lol It does have some amusing parts in it, but it's not my favorite movie. I guess though, when you're 5, it's right up there on the list of all-time great movies. ;)

Hilarious!!

Go check out Lauratopia and watch the movie...don't worry, it's clean! Literally! LOL It's hilarious and so truthful, especially the male part!

Soaps.com

When Oldest Princess was a baby, I worked full time. That meant that I would miss my favorite soap, Days of Our Lives. I used to record it and then watch it when I got home, if I had the time. If I didn’t have the time, I’d have to record over that episode with the new one the next day. Back in that day, we didn’t have the internet, but I sure wish we would have. If I didn’t have time to watch my tape, I could have gone to Soap Opera Updates and read up on the current happenings in Salem. I also like the fact that they have updates on shows such as Ugly Betty. One of my favorite things is message boards. Yep, they have those too. Go post messages with people who like the same show you do! It’s a lot of fun!

Ahhhh, Friday!

Yay, it's Friday! Youngest Princess doesn't have school today. Hmmm, I think maybe we'll make cookies. Cyndi has been taunting me when I'm at work. She'll tell me she's eating warm, fresh-out-of-the-oven cookies. Ooooh, and a tall glass of cold milk. When she's all done, I have to wipe up the drool off of my desk. So maybe today, Youngest and I will make cookies and brag to her! LOL

It's Thursday!

Yay, my Friday........kinda. I still have one shift at job #2 tomorrow, but it's only 2 hours. Youngest Princess doesn't have school tomorrow, due to conferences. Her teacher told me yesterday that youngest was doing fine and she didn't need to meet unless we wanted to.

Craig went and bought parts to build Oldest Princess a new computer. Her computer has been driving Craig insane. It wouldn't start up or if it did, it would put itself in suspended mode. The wireless card kept changing channels by itself. It was just one thing after another. So last night he took Oldest to the computer store and bought a new case and a new motherboard. He stayed up late last night hooking everything up and loading software. To say Oldest is stoked is an understatement!

Giving Thanks

Name 3 Things You're Thankful For:

1. My Family. I've got a wonderful caring husband who's a great daddy and 2 outstanding girls.

2. My Friends. Sometimes I think that without my friends, I'd go crazy if I couldn't complain to them.

3. My home. Especially during this winter, I'm so thankful to have a warm, dry home.

Tag 3 Friends and tell them how thankful you are. I'm tagging:

Cyndi
Maggie
Donna

I Heart my Vacuum

Phew! I'm exhausted. I'm sitting here vacuuming as I type.

I have a Roomba. Thanks to Cyndi's recommendation (yes, she's a bad influence on me ) Anyway, I love it! I can vacuum and do other things at the same time.

Eternal Hug

Cyndi sent me this story. It's really cool. I guess if you've got to go, might as well go together, eh?

Stupid Wench

To the chicky driving the crappy Honda Accord.....don't honk at me and flip me off when you didn't bother to stop at the stop sign and then made an illegal turn. I made a perfectly legal turn and lane change. Oh, and if you didn't happen to notice as you zoomed around me, you didn't get to your 55 and older trailer park any faster. I drove by you in the other lane at the same time you turned into the driveway, so you didn't get one iota further. HA! Wench!

Guess what??

Yep, you guessed it!!! It's Tuesday, and you know what that means.......DANCE CLASS!!!! I can hardly contain my excitement. *eyeroll* Oh well, Mom's taxi, is soon departing....wanna come along??

Girl Talk

Ay yi yi. My oldest Princess is on the computer and the phone. She's talking with her friend L on the phone and instant messaging 2 other friends at the same time. I'm overhearing them and they're talking about who's hot and who's not. Oh my, I am so not ready for this. Of course, they're calling boys monkey brains, so maybe I'm in the clear for a little while.

Monday, Monday, pt. 3

Ok, scratch what I said earlier.....this is an 11 hour day. Oh well, at least I'm done with 9 hrs of it already! Yehaw!!!!

Monday, Monday, pt 2

Ha, I had to go look it up. The Carpenters didn't sing it, it was The Mamas & The Papas. Eh, I was close. ;-)

Monday, Monday

Na na na na na na Who sang that song? The Carpenters??


Anyway, it's Monday. It's my long day. But, I have one less shift at job #2 today, so that's a bonus! Woohoo! So I only have to work almost 10 hours instead. LOL

Super Bowl Commercials

What was your favorite commercial? Mine (of the ones I saw) was Bud's "King Crab" You can watch it again here: Budweiser and click on Bud Bowl Big Game.

Super Bowl 2007

Oldest Princess has to watch the SuperBowl for school for extra credit, so it's been on here. Normally I would have cared less about watching it. Now keep in mind, I LOVE Billy Joel...normally. I thought he didn't sound so good tonight though. I'm wondering if he was sick with a cold or something.

Oooooh yeaaaaaaaah

Groundhog Day

HEY! According to this site, Punxsutawney Phil didn't see his shadow, predicting an early Spring. WOOHOO!!

LOL Look! Phil has his own website!

Beverly Hills 90210

Yes, I watched Beverly Hills 90210. Yes, I'm still watching BH 90210. It's on SOAPnet, back to back episodes! WOOHOO!!!

On another TV note. Our DVR WILL NOT record My Name is Earl. I can't figure it out. I set it up for series recording and it won't record. I just had to delete the series recording and set it up again. Let's hope it works this time because it didn't work again last night. I THINK I can watch it online. I need to go check.

Knock on Wood

Well, youngest Princess seems to be just fine. Phew! No problems at all today. She was even hungry all day long, which tells me she's going through another growth spurt! That girl's gonna make me have to buy her longer pants, you just watch! LOL

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go! Catch y'all later! :-D

Pale Girl

My youngest Princess has been stuffy for the last few days. Today she looks really pale, but seems to be feeling/acting fine. I'm worried on what's to come. I certainly hope it's not the strep showing back up again.

Hmmm, she's telling me her tummy hurts, but she's hopping/dancing around here like nothing, so now I don't know what to think. One of the girls in her class yesterday threw up at school. I'm hoping it wasn't contagious.

Awwwwwww

I slept great last night!! FINALLY! Although it's been over a month since I've slept through the night, and last night was no exception, when I was asleep, I was out for the count. I may have actually been able to sleep through the night last night, but Craig's blood sugar took a nosedive and I got to play nurse. Normally after having to be up in the middle of the night and actually functioning, I lie there forever trying to get back to sleep. Not last night. Thank goodness!! I hope tonight I can actually make it the whole night! Craig thought it may be because I took my happy pills earlier. I'm not so sure. I'm thinking it was because I didn't have to work job #2 last night and I sat here in the recliner vegging/playing on the computer and watching TV all night.

Dorkness

Ok, what kind of dork doesn't have Cream of Mushroom soup? Me. I am that dork. Cream of Mushroom soup is a staple here. I needed it for the recipe. At least I have a can of Cream of Chicken soup, so I will substitute instead. Yeah, I am Queen of the Dorkness.

Yay!

I remembered the Cream Cheese Chicken! I'm going to go put it in the crockpot right this very instant!! Hmmm, guess I should check and make sure I have noodles to put it over. LOL

Wednesday!!!

YAHOO! It's Wednesday. I only work one job today. Neither Princess has dance class. I have all the time in the world!!! Hmmm, maybe a nap? Oooooh, I'll finish my book. I'm thisclose to the end. I'm reading Nora Roberts' Red Lily. It's the third book in a trilogy. Not only is it romance, but it's also a mystery. Very cool!

Air Buddies

Have you seen this movie? I have. 8383729 times. LOL It's my youngest Princess's favorite movie. I love the little pups. Sometime I would love to have a Golden Retriever. Hopefully, though, not as rambunctious as the "Buddies" ;)

Go me! Go me! It's my birthday!

Well, it's not really my birthday, but yay me! I just did 4 T-shirt design requests. Luckily 2 of them were just a matter of changing some things on previous designs. If you'd care to take a gander, my "gallery" is here. Enjoy!

Stealth Setting

Can someone please tell me where the stealth switch is on my Cherokee? Both Craig and I swear it has to have one somewhere. Cars are constantly pulling out in front of us. The sucker's fire engine red for crying out loud!! It's not like you could miss it! Well, I guess, obviously, that some people can miss it. Thank goodness for new brakes! I really wish people would pull their heads out of their asses and drive! That extra 4.3 seconds they would have had to wait for me to pass them wouldn't be the end of the world

Cream Cheese Chicken

In case anyone needs it, the recipe for this yummy meal is here. You have to try it!!! We had it over noodles.

Ahnold.....

I'm baaaaaaaaaaack. I remembered the book. Yay me! I know, I know, you're impressed, aren't ya? Well, half way through class I remembered that I was going to make Cream Cheese Chicken that Cyndi made while we were there. I was going to throw it in the crockpot after work. Grrrrrrrrr.....maybe tomorrow.

I'm Outta Here....

Later taters!!!

Disney Freak

You all know (or should, anyway) that I'm a Disney freak. Anything and everything Disney is right up my alley. I need to figure out how to make my own template for here. I'm sure it's got to be easy enough, right? Guess I need to design some stuff first. Oh, that reminds me.....I need to do those T-shirt Designs for those people on the Disney message boards I'm on. ARGH! They're going this weekend too.....MUST.DO.THEM.TONIGHT.

So if you see me on here tonight when I'm not working, ask me if I did them, ok???? I'm such a slacker. HA!

Dragon Breath

Hahahahaha, I just ate my left overs from Olive Garden. It was portabello mushroom raviolis in a smoked cheese/sun dried tomato sauce, if I remember correctly. I can tell my breath must be horrid. Guess I won't have anyone trying to talk to me at dance class. Muwahahahahaha

Anyone want a kiss? :-*

Anyone??? Bueller???

Anyone wanna take the youngest Princess to dance class for me? Come on!! It's SOOOOOOOOO much fun! I know you want to!

Buncha chickens! ;-)

Note to self: Don't forget the book!!!

My Trip to South Dakota

Cyndi's doing a run down on my visit and how she figured it out that I was coming to visit. Go check it out. Either that or I could just copy/paste her words here. ;)

It's Tuesday

Tuesday is better than Monday. It has to be, right? Yeah, I suppose it is. Really. But today is dance class. *YAWN* for me anyway. I get to sit there for an hour listening to all the other moms talk about this and that. Hmmm, I am in the middle of a good book. Guess I should bring it. Hope I don't forget. hahahaha

Diet Black Cherry Vanilla Coke

This is my favorite Coke product. We used to have it in the vending machine at work. The last time the Coke guy came in, he changed out the Diet Black Cherry Vanilla Coke and the caffeine free Diet Coke my bosses drink with regular Diet Coke. My boss's wife called Coke. They called back. Turns out they don't carry those particular flavors on their trucks anymore because they weren't selling as well as the other ones like Coca-Cola Zero. WTH???? So anyway, that explains why I can't find the 20 oz. bottles in the stores anymore either. I'm seriously bummed.

11 Down....

0 to go!!!! Did you hear that? That was me screaming "YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I'm done with work today!!! I am so tired, but Heroes is coming on next. At least it's DVR'ing, so if I do fall asleep (& I will) I can watch it tomorrow.

10 down....

1 to go!!! Heeeeeehawwwwwww! Yes, I'm loopy. My first shift was at 6 this morning. I'm sleep deprived. hahahaha Of course, I haven't had dinner yet, except for the handful of chocolate chips I just ate. Wonder what sounds good??? Any suggestions?

My new baby

I'm not sure I ever posted anywhere other than telling Cyndi about it. We are the proud owners of a new 2005 Honda TRX 450R. It hauls ASS!!



I grew up on 3-wheelers, etc. Craig's never ridden. So I assumed it was basically my bike, right? Craig didn't know how to ride it with the clutch, etc. WRONG It was hinted at that we'd share it. *Pshaw, yeah, right* ;) Anyway, he took it out with my dad last weekend and now guess who's admitted it's now MY bike? hehehehe

8 down....

8 hours down...........3 to go. *Yawn* I wish I could work them all at one time instead of an hour inbetween shifts here, a half hour there, etc. etc. I know, whine, whine, whine, right? :-D

Ugh, Monday

Ugh, it's Monday. Yippy Skippy. I work almost 11 hours today, and that is if I get off on time from job #2 today. But at least my worst day is at the beginning of the week instead of the end. LOL
