o.k and lastley try to post at least 1 time a day!
And we saw bedtime stories, it was all right , but then we snuck in to marley and me at the very end and its a tear jerker... trust me the last five minutes of this movie and dave an i are bawling....we are such good examples for our girls......
and now dave and the twins are making cookies, and michelle says something to her dad about being old, and i tell her your only as old as you feel, she looks at her dad and says so your 7????
This is long so be patienced, If you can...you can tell we live in so. cali, because we are so happy we got snow, but like many people i do not truly think if i had to deal with this all the time,i would be this happy i would go nuts,and my god driving was awful.. then i think the people that live in this white wonder,truly must laugh at us because we get a couple of inches, and we do not have a clue as what to do or how to drive in this stuff, but the people who live in this proably think,lol look at them cali. fools and they only got an inch or two...well my hubby is fixing my dryer as mine died yet again....hopefully he can do it, because i HATE hanging up clothes!!!!!
And this year no mood swings either, thats a double plus here.....the kids all got there presents..well except for michelle, she is getting a new puppy,something that is big so tank wcan have a friend as well and not a male as tank will beat him up! we did look for puppies before christmas but there was none that just jumped out in front of me and grabbed me.....I even got rid of my bassett hound as tank was mean to him.. well have a happy day
Well today has been a good day, we went to dave's work lunch at this really good japanesse place,and they have the best sushi..ummmmmmmmmhmmmmmmmmmmmmmm then we went to his brothers and had a really good dinner, I'm so stuffed i really went off my diet..(aunt doral I'm starting my diet again fri.)anyways we had a good time at the in laws, but I did miss my phone call from smocha...grrrrrrrrrrrrr been waiting for that one for days...........So i have promised my self right after the opening of the presents,my present to me is calling her.....And this will be the first christmas ever without my oldest daughter and her son.....i'm crying floods of tears..and god i do miss her so, but i know she is good where she is at....it just is weird......
well the girls are still up, and i wanna go to bed...so have a good and blessed day! Merry Christmas...
Well it snowed and snowed and snowed , i would guess about a good foot or better....the picture above is one that i took from my phone, it is in the corner of my back yard!and of all the pictures I took and yes I took tons, this is my favorite!!!I would of course put them up for alll to see,and my thanksgiving pictures and my just stuff pictures, except i can not, as i need a new cord for my camera.....any ways, I finally got my christmas shopping done...thanks to the weather i am behind... but on the upside this is the first year i will not be doing wrapping on christmaas eve! yea.. well it is late so I must sign off.... night all
well i need all who read my blog to comment so i can add you to my side bar once more as you can see i had to change my page..... hmmmmmmmmmmmmm oh i forgot to tell about the fire.....
so the girls and i are going to the liquor store, and lynzie yells mom theres a fire i look over and right next to the liquor stire,and i'm talking right next to the building,the is a fire just getting started...right in the middle of a bunch of boxes...so what do i do , grab my fire extinguisher and used it.. ok they used it...and let me tell you those small fire exinguishers don't work real well but enough to sloww it down , to get water on it...
one last thing, there is a women at work whos son got into a car accident and died,on impact, someone ran into him.. he was 21..it is very tragic...so pleaase say rayers for there family...
Well it seems i start to update and things start to get really crazy here, so the kids are at school and i have a few minutes before i have to get ready for work...so I'm finally updating...and then the phone rings....x2....I can't type and talk at the same time..
So i finally got that check thing fixed after the bank put it threw twice,now wouldn't you think that a 20,000 dollar check,for a friggin water bill would seem like an over site, but the bank was great, the rest of the week went about as good as it started, stressful,that check thing happened on a Monday night , then my sis calls and tells me her arm might be broke, ( 2 days before thanksgiving),but it was not, (she found out after thanksgiving) so she did make one heck of a dinner with arm in cast thing and all!!!!!once again her dinner was the best!
on Fri. after thanksgiving on Fri. Dave and i start our shopping,and all is good ,till sat when i go to the store to buy the forbidden cig, and they tell me my debit card is DECLINED, what the hell, since Dave just deposited his pay check fri....well that damn check was still haunting me, grrrrrrrrrrr....we were over drawn 18,000 dollars.damn, i do not think i have ever been that stressed....and all the while still thinking my water bill is still not payed....my mom did come up for thanksgiving and yes she did stay here for 2 nights,yea.....so i asked my mom, if i could borrow the money to pay the water bill and write her a check...she just looked at me...yea right.....then on Sunday, we are all visiting and my sister calls, her husband was choking on a piece of meat(carne asada) and needed to go to the hospital....a few things i learned if your choking on meat as follows: when your choking on meat that is dislodge, Do not jump on your tractor and go in circles, the bouncing motion will not dislodge it, do not stick a spark plug wire down your throat, it will not help,and you could tear you esophagus, and the hymlik does not always work....my brother in law is just fine now, thank god...and it was a very serious situation...
Well i have every ones Christmas shopping done ,hmmm but my kids...damn how does that always happen...I've been working every day and it finally cold here 50 degrees and freezing grrrrrrr...doing the brownies, and being busy with that, the girls will be in the Christmas parade this weekend...which will be fun! so last week after my brownie meeting i had to go by the boys and girls club, to talk with someone and of course bitching about how unorganized about how our troop is and the women who runs the boys and girls club is there, and after i left she asked my friend if i would be interested in working there....yes another real job....of course i said yes, but i still have to go threw the application process..so hopefully things will work out and I'll have another job!..
anyways just a quick note about marriage....sometime when people get married they dread there in laws..and as you all no my mother in law and i are not the best of friends and maybe never will be...but it is what it is ! but my husbands aunt is the greatest, she is a retired school teacher who right now is living in Oregon,but is just the nicest person in the world, yesterday i talked to her for about a half hour, and she is the type of person after you talk to you feel so good about yourself,she is not judge mental,and she is just the greatest, there are not enough things to say how woderful she truly is!anyways her and i will be sort of Internet dieting together and I'm very excited!!!!
well i must get going will try to update again before Christmas, no only joking!!!
Well hope everyone has a great day, I get to spend it withmy family, yea i know i sound like a re-run..but i love the holidays, christmas is my favorite, and you'll not catch me saying happy holidays, its merry christmas,s, and happy new years.....blah blah blah ,like the elections i could go on forever, but i will not, i must get my big ole butt in the shower and get to my sistyers ,damn i am suppose to be there now!!!!!!grrrrrrrrrrrrrr...i'm late.. have a great thanks giving...
Well school is out and the kids are bored, i'm frigging bored.. the most excitment i've had of late is when i went ot go pay a bill online and instead of putting 201.66 i somehow put 20,166 damn thats a big f(*&&* up grrrrrrrrrr, and when i relized it and called them back then the place was closed so now i get to worry all night whats gonna happen oh and the bank said there was nothing they could............thats what happens when i try to mulitask....kids screaming threw the house , the dogs are fighting,the phone will not stop ringing and dave bless his heart,,ragging about something, then i hit the friggin send button, without paying any attention.......
yep way behind.....been busy but then not really, just working,nothing new there, the kids get really wild right before the holiday breaks so this has been interesting......brownies has been well brownies, the veterans day thing was so much fun ,dang now i'm re-running...
hmmmmmmmmmmm..o.k. thanksgiving, we are going to my sisters, and my mom is coming, hopefully she might even stay the night.. i no i sound like a damn whining child, well its my mom, and i hardly ever see her..Mom I love you....but then she knows it...anyways, so my mom does NOT drive in the rain, and of course the weather has been beatiful..but the other day i'm on my way home, from the dentist, and damn if the radio anoucers anouce it MIGHT friggin rain on thanks giving!!!!!GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR so now i think my mom should just come up and stay the week, heck i'll even go pick her up, but then i know that won't work, because she hates not having a car...so i say my prayers every night, god please don't rain on thanksgiving, i wanna see my mom!!!!!it would be great to have us all together.....my sister is the best cook....can't wait for the thanksgiving photos..

Well today was really good,the Girl scouts and brownies went to the old cemetery and put flags on the graves of vets...we also stayed for the celebration of our soldiers, which was really cool. at the end they had a bag pipe who played Amazing grace, and my co-leader and i both started crying ,a p-152 mustang flew over head this was so awesome..the girls talked to some old vets and there stories were great to say the least...God bless both the solders of past and present....
here is also a video of Halloween pictures, my dogs tank, dufus and yes our cat eddy who is now getting along with both dogs.. and of course the events of the day.. at the end of this video there were 2 guys riding on Harley's flying there amazing flags, and yes i did follow them to get the picture..
since i leed an exciting life.. i found this site stolen from smocha.....
Your result for What color crayon are you?...
Midnight Black
You are a Midnight Black crayon! You color the night sky and the streets. You are the darkest part of the eye. You are MYSTERY. There is a combination of the traditoinal and the daring within you which is why most people cannot figure you out. In one moment, you are following the rules and a second later breaking them. You have energy and a kind heart. You are unique and though you are not necessarily a leader, you are also not a follower.
Yes it has been weeks.. and sorry for that.... Hmm were to start, hm oh someone tried to break into my house, and they did come in , but thank god for alarm systems, i saw finger prints on the top of my computer, so what i think happen is when they came in, the alarm went off,and when whomever it was kept hearing the blaring alarm, figured the cops would be here soon and left! whew, now i lock my door and set the alarm....
I went to go have lots of blood work done and a two hour glucose test,(note to people, if you ever have this done bring a book) And i did finnally go and have that ct scan done, my sister went with me, then we went to lunch, and it was yummy, there is nothing like a good Chinese restaurant...we had a great day!~ So the Dr.s finally call me and tell me I HAVE to go into there office for the results,(they usually give them to me on the phone)so now i am very worried and stressed, damn do i have cancer, why did i not quit smoking ect...so i go to the Dr.s and NO I do not have cancer, just some scar tissue from bronchitis, that i get every year.. but i am diabetic, my blood sugar was 232, which i guess is very high,and a fatty liver,which could leed to serossis of the liver, so now I'm fat(like i don't know that),and i can't eat fudge at Christmas.. hmmmm this explains why i seem so tired at the end of the day! but i have goals...and it sounds pretty good,I'm gonna start exercising to the point where i can start jogging ,where i don't feel like i need oxygen, then maybe next year run walk in a 3k 5k race....now i just need to not think about it and do it!
Halloween was great,the kids dressed up really cute, the girls and i walked up the street, then my sister came over and we all drove around the neighborhood,her husband drives and we walk then drive and walk ect. until a its too late and there are no lights on or we are just tired...we do this every year, and its fun, this year my nephew brought his little friend and she was cute..a little pirate...
and one last thing, last week at school there is this first grader and it seems he is always in some sort of trouble,so he was kickin the balls that are off limits to kicking and i told him to go put it away and come see me, well this said child is pron to not listening, anyways I'm watching him and tell him to hurry,and he tosses the ball in the basket and i tell him to hurry, again this little boy turns and starts to run back in a dead run, not realizing there was a basketball pole not three feet in front of him, and blam, he hit that pole full speed ahead, i was so shocked, this little child fell backwards, and when he got up he had the biggest lump on his head......it was something straight out of a cartoon, he did go to the nurse and went home,was back at school the next day,not even a bruise. but damn i still could not believe it happened..
our brownie troop made flags out of construction paper and and wrote little notes on the back for our U.S. soldiers and we are gonna mail them to some troop in Iraq,today. its very exciting and the girl were so happy, then on Tuesday we are going to an old cemetery and put flag on some old veterans graves..
So what are every ones thanksgiving plans...on the 23 of this month we will be going with Dave to az,we're going to stay at the casino,they have an indoor water park, then we'll be back on the 26 and going to my sisters house for dinner..hope my mom goes, that would be awesome.. and my sister does know how to make the best turkey dinner...can't wait!
so now I am updated , will not lag anymore
just for fun:
Your result for "The Real You" Test...
Genuine Realist
Everyone has their quirks and flaws, but you're pretty well balanced for the most part. You're honest when it counts ... You care about yourself, but that doesn't stop you from caring about others, too ... and you know how to have fun without going overboard.
Well i tried to post a jeff dunham thing but noooooooooooooooooooo half of it went to my other blog.. got nothin so sorry , still not to much here, dave is still working in az...but he's getting bored with it, he misses not being home and we miss not having him here.. and when he gets home, he believe's he should be waited on hand and foot....we have totally diffrent ideas about this, i believe that since i am takig care of the kids 24 hours a day working myself,(SO WHO CARES IF IT IS ONLY 2 HOURS DAY) dropping off kids at boys and girls club doing laundry cleaning house.. cooking ,doing brownies, volunteering at the school going grocery shoppping,taking care of pets,(BOY MORTIES A tOUGH PET TO HANDLE), and then waiting on him god HE does not understand why i am exhausted!!!o.k. now that i'm done bitchy, really i don't mind.. but i do believe he Should just do his honey do list, and honey drinking beer, is not the only thing on your list!!!!well have a great day, i'm gonna go kick the couch and wake my husband up!!!!
