Twitter?

Who's on it? who likes it?
I signed up but I am assuming you need people in order for it to be really effective.

I mailed all my stuff out today- I am being hosted on Lolly's site again tomorrow, I made Sherry's recipe.

Seriously Kiefer...Your 24 ain't got NOTHIN on mine!

Calling all cars, Calling all cars...We've got a Number Two in the H2O...
Yup.. here's how my Sunday evening started.. Poop inside the tub, it's poop inside the tub (Everybody say Whoops upside ja head, whoops upside ja head!)
Delay of game due to cleaning
Ok, cleaned the tub, back in and out... and we're good.
Then, out of the tub, and we always sit on my bed, on my side *you see where this is going don't you* and PEED IN MY BED!!
Oh sigh... ok, so maybe it is time to clean the sheets....at EIGHT PM!
Ten p.m. the snoring starts.. LOUD.. no, smarty pants. not me! Miss T.. Snoring, a lot.. Oh man, there is a kid sick at the sitter, don't start this on a sunday night.
Ten thirty, I am going to bed, laying there, listening to the monitor, it's getting so much louder and then the coughing starts.. this goes on until after 12:30... Daddy, (the poor thing) can't sleep so he goes downstairs on the couch *(and may possible stay there) long story short, I got about an hour and a half of sleep overall until 5 ish.
We get up, call the Dr get our assigned time of 9:45 and we are getting ready, eating a very quick breakfast and out the door, Now pay attention this goes fast.
1. forgot the diaper bag FORGOT IT!! AT HOME!
2. Get to the dr, we have to see the nurse p. we could have RSV so they test her.
2.a. SWAB up the nose, both sides.. ya, I would have kicked the nurse too.. Yup, kicked the nurse.
2.b. then had to have a breathing treatment in the office. She grabbed the nurses hand and pulled it away and pulled the tube out. My kid is smart.. pissed off and smart!
3. leave the Dr office, get in the car, get out and go to wallgreens to get our stuff (*ear infection and RSV with breathing treatments for a WEEK to ten days!!) Walgreens #1 wait is TWO plus hours.. have I mentioned the breathing treatment stuff is PREPACKAGED!!! GRRR I hate that walgreens! Walgreens #2 - Fifteen Minutes!!
4. we run to arby's (story for tomorrow, tune back in during naptime) and get lunch.
5. back to Walgreens after a brief stop at Starbucks for momma... needing it... and talked to the matress giant guy taking out trash and we can get my bed thing firxed. ( tune in tomorrow for that one too)
6. home ** Interesting part here*** So we finally get home and I go to open the garage and the car clicker is dead but I have one on my key chain and go to click it and the button SLIDES into the clicker and STICKS@@ ON!!!!
So, I am like "oh crap!" so I am trying to mess with it and get it back in it's place so the light goes off and the door is going UP AND DOWN -- UP AND DOWN ya, your cracking up arn't you..
so I am like shit, what do I do?? I am trying to hide it so it's not making it work, no.. not happenin UP AND DOWN -- UP AND DOWN.
I take T out of her carseat and by this point it's down. so I put my keys in my pocket and go up to the door to open it by the code.. and it starts to go up then it stops like 4 inches off the ground and the clicker and the wall unit are fighting... it would start to go up then start to go down again...
it took us almost 4 minutes to get in the house...

So there Kiefer!! It takes you an ENTIRE SEASON to have that much entertainment in one day!

I am alive.. swamped but alive

So, I did my 43 things and have been so busy. Miss T is eating real food now so I have to figure out dinners that are, sad to say a bit more bland that we are used to. Daddy likes peppered steaks and spicy mexican and now we are trying to eat healthier and more verity, not my thing. I don't think outside the box like I should when it comes to food. I could eat salad every night for 2 weeks then change to something else. Daddy is a bit pickier so he sometimes just won't eat what I make so I make smaller portions or just don't make it at all... Now figure that out for 1.5 of us... Ya.. Hard.
I made 17 tennis towels (pictures to come, another story, totally cool, needs it's own post)
45 pair of socks (and sold over $150!!! worth!!!)
lost my brand new camera, found it...
had our Parents as Teachers meeting
met a new friend
started swimming lessons for Miss T.
got tons of new clothes for her that I had to organize
visited with a friend that lives over an hour away, so that's 2 hours for the trip, which is hard to do more than once a month.
work
sleep
read
book club
girls night out
and helped my neighbor with a 6th grade charity event at her daughters school/our church.

I miss you all so much.. I am loading up pictures tomorrow(i.e. tonight but I won't stay up to edit) and will have many many updates!

Wadda Shithead!

So, I am at lunch (ish) and there is a guy that I work with that was making cracks about how cold it was and he was going to put someone elses coat on. Well, he picked the smallest person in our room and so I said "it will be like Fat man in a little coat" from Tommy Boy. Funny Movie! Funny Scene! Classic! (click will take you to U Tube)
then the conversation turns bad, all of a sudden I called him fat (per his word) I hurt his feelings, I am such a this and that, and I walked over to look at someones weight watchers book and he turns around and says "Don't bother, it's NOT like THAT's going to help"

SHIT HEAD!!! So, I am trying not to be a bitch, but I really want to go off...

A lot of a little - 3 -

My husband is making me watch the chicks funky boobs (not in a good way either!) on the Bachelor, he's nuts...

I added my maiden name on my FB page and am getting stalked by High School DREAMS.. They are crazyyyy!!!

So a few things about me.

1. I dated a guy with hair longer than mine, it was so red too, and he played the guitar and drove a VW rabbit. He never took me anywhere nice but he always made me laugh. It took me close to 10 years to get over him.... and he was not that good looking.

2. I dated a stocking blond guy that got caught stealing with some other guys and ended up in big trouble. He never treated me well, it didn't take me long to get over him.

3. I dated a guy with a ponytail, a bad attitude and a few really nice cars. He wanted me when he could not have me then didn't care what I did when he did have me. He was a mechanic, my car was treated better than I was. I miss that car....

4. I dated a guy that drove a motorcycle, had fast cars, was really good looking and hit me so hard I flew down a flight of stairs and probably should have had stitches. He was easy to walk away from.

5. I dated a guy that loved me more than anything, paid my rent, let me drive his car when mine broke down and he drove it with THREE gears! took care of me when I was sick, paid attention to my God Daughter when she was over to spend the night, and played games with her. Played Hockey with me and took me to really nice places... and I treated him like shit... I led him down the path of thinking we would stay together, and that was never true. it's sad, I would apologize to him if I saw him today.

6 I married a guy that I met and knew I wanted, I loved everything about him from the moment we first spoke. He's the most wonderful father, husband, takes care of my car, our house, has nice things, takes me nice places, never hits me, takes care of the baby when I don't feel good, makes me dinner, allows me to sing as loud as I want and never tells me how bad it sounds... and so much more!

So, this week is going to be a lot of little catching up.. a note here a note there.. maybe even a few pictures...

I got my birds started. they are based of a Japanese cartoon I saw.. there cute but somethings missing, I think.

I have my towels done for my Ohio order, I need to get them shipped this week. I am so Glad!!!

i need to finish one more quilt to have my Grandma's quilts done for this Christmas. I guess I will do one for my MIL next year? Who knows... thoughts?

I caught up with a high school friend on FB and now am somewhat addicted again. I look for updates too often.. Uhh..as if I need another addiction

I've started back up on the treadmill, I am going for 4 times a week 30 min per time... uhhhgggg..

anything else?

Being Crafty

This is so cool


I am going to work on me this year, work on being a good mom, a good sew/craft/artist/knitter person, work on cleaning and cooking and baking and better at my job. Enjoying my job, and or finding one I do enjoy.
It's time to clean house around the blog too. If I am erratic, hope that I am cleaning, cooking, crafting, mommy-ing, singing, dancing, swimming (lessons for Miss T.)

Ok, here I go.. and anyone wants to join in, this is going to be so much fun. I really want our tree interactive next year, something that a 1 almost 2 year old won't be afraid to break if she goes near... like it was this year with all of our Irish dancers on the tree...
