Michelle, well she is becoming my chicken lady?egg girl! but she refuses to eat any of the eggs..... as well as pork, she found oout where ham was from, pork chops and all pork products......my future vegan....
Victoria....hmmm what to say about her, she is my mini me.. and lord help my soul...she has no fear, and her mouth runs faster than a race horse...
Dave and I are doing good.. we just had our 15 year anniversary of our being together, we actually met at my sisters on thanksgiving day, but he sttod me up.... for amonth ad half.......you ask why i went out again... his heart... he has a big heart!..

He is alright..
So I get to work yesterday, and when I walk in to the office I hear, yes the kids are all fine, mis bus driver is fine,a car ran a stop sign...and my mind starts to race, the tears start,and a mood swing begins, my grand son is on that bus...all I keep thinking, aryn is fine, and stop crying......then I go to said post..have a couple other things happen, which I am not allowed to say, and as I am leaving the playground,I check my phone..I get a text from my son saying"we can leave school till the cops clear the area"or even get on the bus.....wth, oh yea he lives in az, again my mind is racing...so I call him immediately and he says calmly , oh he just left school and know he has no idea what happened.
So how was your day?.
Thank god today is a new day.hope it is better!

Happy day
W
ell today is already a very frigid day..but it is gonna be a happy day.....last night when I was checking my FB..my cousin posted that she had ridden her bike to and from wok..40 miles round trip.....mind you she is only 1 year 1 week younger than I...so it goes to show no matter what your age, as long as you take care of yourself you can do anything..at any age.....
Went back to work, and oh thank god...staying home just gets so, so, long..dreary,depressing...and the kids just go crazy!
So saturday, my way to my in laws,i see a box of stuff, as I was driving by it, and of course,i have to back up to see what is in it, to my children horror,I finally get to it and what do I find a really cool juicers..a montel williams juicer,"health master", so I go online to find out more about it, all the reviews are bad...so now I wonder since it does have a life warranty, if it breaks, will it apply to me...lol
P.s.Happy 1/11/11

So here I am once again,
And I really should change my blog name to seldom blogger, since I seldom blog anymore.....Losts has happened, this post today will be a montage of the last couple months...lets see if I can stay on track while remembering everything.....
o.k. settled in, here goes...Last time I really posted, Mortie had come out of hibernation....and,now its time for her to go back, I was worried about scorpions and justly so...I believe we killed about 20 so far,The standard size scorpion is 4 inches, but we did get a 6 incher, and it is still hot outside, got 1 mojave green rattlesnake, which almost bit Michelle, thank god living out here, our kids are snake aware!..
My sister in law did pass away from cancer and that was very sad,But she was in so much pain , I did see her 4 days before she went, and glad I was able to say my goodbyes!
I also have been entering bob Fm contest(our local radio station) so far to date i have won: a 200 dollar jewelry gift cert. 2 different 60 dollar perfume gift cert. nascar qualifying tickets and the nascar grand prize 500 tickets( which i gave to my friend)And a couple of weeks ago, I enter my friend into a volunteer contest,(same radio station) she won the grand prize, limo ride to dinner, 50 dollar gift cert towards dinner, limo ride to Michael Bolton's concert, meet and greet, of Michael Bolten,and a limo ride home, which was fully stocked... she invited me to go.. and we had a blast!I also won yearly passes to universal studio's with no black out dates, and have been using them allot... I so want to go to there Halloween fright nights,but since this is a special event, i sill have to pay, I would get a discount, ..hope fully we will be able to go11111
ark. yearly girls week was so much fun, and this year I was not sick , but still moody from chantix, the no smoking pill, which I do not recommend!..Anyways we went to Tennessee, to Graceland , and it was awesome!Gracelands mansion, is not as big as I had thought, and the rooms inside were very small, ...but was still awesome...Girls week did rock this year....
Work: well I am still on the sub list, but have been working a lot...o.k. maybe not as much as I would like but still am working... I love the kids so much....I so do like my job!
Alex: did move to his dads house, as the school system out in AZ. is much better than the school he was going to! actually I think any school is better than the High school, he was going to...Then again I should look at it as the choices he chose to make... nope the school sucks!
Still have dial-up, I don't think that dsl or high speed Internet is ever going to be in my life again , unless if course I go to the library!
so this is whats been going on...

Spring break
And it has been beautiful!
My god it has been so long since i have posted..I think once a month is good for me lately.
The most exciting thing I have done is gone to my aunt and uncles 50 wedding anniversary.. and it was really nice, was suppose to be a surprise,,but my aunt is much smarter.. than that, and figured it out! i saw my 3 cousins which I had not seen in years, Linda the oldest... she has the good genes, OK well they all do, where they look ageless... anyways Linda my oldest, has a really nice house(first time I had been there), Sherri my middle cousin, has only just learned to surf<< OK, about a year ago she jogs bicycle, among other things and she is 1 year younger than I than me...then there Diana who lives in NC...who keeps herself busy with work a house and kids, and has the secret recipe to my grandmothers deviled eggs...please send me the recipe....anyways back to my aunt and uncle, Its was so amazing to see them< they look so good and happy together, which is a very rare thing, indeed!
My Mortie my baby has just come out of hibernation, which now means;we have got to be on the alert for snakes scorpion and the such...I feel so lucky, and i do know that the dreaded Mojave green snake is out, my son ran across one up in the mountains behind my house, last week....since this is the first full summer we will be here it is kinda nerve racking.....
Works been good.. counting the days till my summer trip..this year smocha and I will be adventuring it to Memphis, it looks like there is a chance we will being going to Graceland , which would be nice....so excited...and so far NO , NO health issues.....oh thank god...
We did however get a new puppy, so that bring the dog count up to what the heck am i thinking number...and my baby Bella is also gonna have some; hopefully she will have more than 2 as I have people who want them and 2 are gone....
anyways we are going out to dine tonight and i better get something done here....My next post will hopefully be of the adventures of my vegetable garden i plan on trying to start...grow, which i have never ever done in my life....And for all those who say i don"t spell check...I just did....Have a wonderful day

Chores and kids...CHECK
And i'm gonna kick my sons butt CHECK. as soon as dave leaves town he seems to think that well he can do and say what he wants.. well that is not working well for me and now not for him...cell phone.. no more check...stereo.. no more...check...x-box 360.. put away deep in the pits of his new hell....check....he will now never ever say these words to me ever when i tell him he needs to or has not done anything...and i quote" I just want to be like Lynzie"... What in the heck is wrong with these friggin kids today and thinking they don't have to do chores and when they do thinking we have to re-finace our house to pay them...not in my world.. now or ever.....i remeber when i was a kid I got 25 cents.. and was happy...now a days kids think they need twenty bucks aweek...sorry kids , not happening.. even if there was no recession..... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...Talking about being mad, i believe i never ever have been this mad at my son.......
Anyways yes dave did leave for the bay area..he is in oakland..and yes today is also his birthday which is really sad..i can say i do really miss him and he has only been gone one day..and I am used to him being out of town.. This time it is diffrent I don't no...diffrent...
Anyways I just wanna tell you bout my dog as this is the most exciting thing in my life as of lately....Well we have a dog and her name is Molly she is ichelles dog, we got her after her dog pork chop hung himsel...anyways the other night we all go to bed and I take a sleeping pill have for years.. and when i do go to sleep am that way dead to the world....well I guess after my coma sleep has set in, dave said the dachshunds.. (*my baby bella and alexs's dog sassy would not stop barking then he hears Molly just howling and really crying.. welll he runs out side..Dressed only in what god has givin him and molly has jumped the fence , but her leg has got caught in the fence ornament...he finnally gets her back paw undone and tells me a couple hours later, when i finally wake from my coma state that molly has a broken paw.......mind you this dog can jump and clear a eight foot fence..Damn another bill ..so when i go out to take the kids i check her paw and it looks just fine...and now dave and i are both confident that this little accident has cured her from jumping fences and bye the grace of god her paw is fine....WELL Her paw is fine but i'll be damned she has not learned her lesson and that dang dog is still jumpimg fences....ugh insert pictures...of fence...

Whoever said owning a house is
The best thing in the world, LIED, I have had more streess since i bought this house than i think i ever had wondering were the heck i was gonna get my rent from... if a damn water pipe broke the fix is just a phone call away to the beloved or not sometimes landlord( i mostly had good ones).. and NO taxes...so this is what my post is about !!!TAXES... and they suck.. i never relized it till I got my first tax bill... they more than double and i have only been in this damn house..ok i do love my house since july....the tax asseser people seem to think my house value has like doubled....I don't see how...we fix broken pipes..we have a boat load of tree's that are dead and when the dreaded wind blows they fall(hence tons of fire wood) for the fire place , wood burning stove as our heater does not work....so if this is how our house value has doubled than i'll be damned...lets cut those oout buildings down.. and let the weeds overide the horse arena i'll never us.....and then lets see if my taxes drop!! with my luck they ed raise the damn things again.....
o.k. anyways dave has been working , oh thank god, because since this little tax hike my mortage went up....oh yea the tax subject was closed...grrrrr..anyways he will be going up to the bay area,maybe wed. happy birthday honey..it sucks but work is what it is....on the upside.. he is gona try and get ahold of his cousin and aunt...and maybe get to see them..he has not been able to see them in a couple of years....
so how was everyones halloween? mine pretty good, my sister came over and picked up our whole family we went to itown and i had a really nice time, hardly any houses were giving out stuff, but the night was great no mishaps..and the kids had a ball!!!
