All Around Bad Day

My day started off good with a nap close to my baby. But thats about it on good. We leave to go pick up our son from school and we play a game of sudoku and she BEATS me. LOL. Then we go to Q-trip to air up our tires. Pump doesn't work. So then we go to Sonic and eat, thats ok. Then we come home so that I can get ready for work. I took out the trash, vacuumed the floor, fed the cats and gave them water, scooped the litter box, and gave them fresh litter. And no sooner did I vacuum and clean up around the liter box, they both jumped in and started to play in the fresh litter. So I go to get them out and they kicked litter everywhere. So I had to vacuum agian. Then I went to go finish getting ready for work and they did it again but even worse. Uuugghhh. Just left it because I had to leave. My night wasn't all that great at work either. Freinds of ours (so I thought) showed up to eat and neither one of them said Hi to me. That really sucked because I dont know why they are not talking with us. I dont know what we did to them or what we might have said or what. But it really sucks because I really did enjoy their company and friendship. Anyways after they left I really got in the weeds at work and my baby calls me and I tried to stay calm on the phone but that didnt happen. I pretty much jumped down her throat and made her mad because all she was calling me for was to talk to me and ask me a question. I'm sorry baby. Everything was just happening all at once and I had this table that everytime I take something to them they wanted something else. I was getting irritated and she just called at the wrong time. Then I come home and find out our son has chocolate pudding all over his floor and he was still awake. So I had him clean it up and then put him to bed. Thank goch this day is over with. Ready for a new one.

Tornados

Wow, just look at those again. Those are so cool. I have always loved to look at tornados from a distance (like in a picture or on t.v.), but I have never been in or near one. Knock on wood. That would be so scarey to be actually in one. They are so unique and different in every picture I see. It's overwhelming, breathtaking, to know mother nature could create such a beast.

celeberity cheats

Her are my celebrity cheats, not in any order.

Bounce this Around

• The US Postal service sent out a message to all letter carriers to put a sheet of Bounce in their uniform pockets to keep yellow jackets away. The yellow jackets just veer around you. And all this time you've! just been putting Bounce in the dryer!

• It will chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them.

• It also repels mice. Spread them around foundation areas, or in trailers, cars that are sitting and it keeps mice from entering your vehicle.

• It takes the odor out of books and photo albums that don't get opened too often.

• Repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when outdoors during mosquito season.

• Eliminates static electricity from your television (or computer) screen. Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your television screen with a used sheet of Bounce to keep dust from resettling.

• Dissolve soap scum from shower doors. Clean with a sheet of Bounce.

• Freshen the air in your home. Place an individual sheet of Bounce in a drawer or hang in the closet.

• Put Bounce sheet in vacuum cleaner.

• Prevent thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through sheet of Bounce before beginning to sew.

• Prevent musty suitcases. Place an individual sheet of Bounce inside empty luggage before storing.

• Freshen the air in your car. Place a sheet of Bounce under the front seat.

• Clean baked-on foods from a cooking pan. Put a sheet in a pan, fill with water, let sit overnight, and sponge clean. The antistatic agent apparently weakens the bond between the food.

• Eliminate odors in wastebaskets.. Place a sheet of Bounce at the bottom of the wastebasket.

• Collect cat hair. Rubbing the area with a sheet of Bounce will magnetically attract all the loose hairs.

• Eliminate static electricity from Venetian blinds. Wipe the blinds with a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from resettling.

• Wipe up sawdust from drilling or sand papering. A used sheet of Bounce will collect sawdust like a tack cloth.

• Eliminate odors in dirty laundry. Place an individual sheet of Bounce at the bottom of a laundry bag or hamper.

• Deodorize shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of Bounce in your shoes or sneakers overnight.

• Golfers put a Bounce sheet in their back pocket to keep the bees away.

• Put a Bounce sheet in your sleeping bag and tent before folding and storing them. Keeps them smelling fresh.

Some good tips that I thought were worth sharing. Enjoy!

Make A Wish

Somewhere in the world. Awesome.

This is the most amazing picture of a comet.
Just look at it. It is so peaceful.
Has anyone ever had a dream? And had it come true?

Cute pictures

The polar bears with the hockey sticks, is a crack up. Aaaawww, look how cute the wrinkle dog is. Just had to share these with all of you bloggers.

More Christmas Humor

The second one is how to rob a snowman. A friend sent these to me in an e-mail and cracked me up. So I had to share them with all you bloggers. Laughing still at the elves one.

Christmas humor

I love Garfield. He cracks me up.

Chiefs

The chiefs beat the Denver Broncos. Yeah. It was a great game and very cold. Larry Johnson is proving to be the best that he can be. It is his time to shine, and shinning is what he does best. He will be the next George Brett of K.C., thats what they say. He is kickin' butt and taking all his apponents down one at a time. Take a vote: Priest Holmes or Larry Johnson? Let me know who everyone likes.

Stuck

We just got two new kittens yesterday and we can not come up with names we like for them. They are eight weeks old and sisters. One is gray and white (short-haired) and the other is black and tannish-white (long haired). Adorable as hell. We need your help with some names that go together. The names that we have thought of are: jekyll and hyde, tweedledee and tweedledum, echo and whisper, jasper and casper, TIKI and KIKI, Sassy and Classy, sweet and sassy, and tequila and malibu. The last one is my favorite. Let us know if you can come up with anymore names that would fit our kittens. Or help us pick from the names we have already came up. Vote and we will post the names we have chosen out of all of them suggested.

Thanks

Another poem...

The Thistle and the Rose

Well, the evening saunters slowly to an ending,
as a waitress clutters tables with upturned chairs,
The guy at the piano takes his tip jar and his beer,
as the few lost souls remaining wander slowly off in pairs.

And the owner calls out loudly, "Gents, it's time please.
Could you finish off your pints, and drink'em down.
I've a wife at home and family I don't see enough;
So we'll see you all tomorrow, if God's willing;
drink'em down."

There's a bouncer down from Yorkshire by the exit;
I'm smiling at his words I can't translate.
And a pretty little lass hands me my coat and cap and scarf,
as her boyfriend snarls severely, "Come on lad, it's gettin' late."

Two hours ago this place was really jumping,
as waitresses with trays spilled beer and swore:
the smoky smell of laughter wrapped around us,
as the guy at the piano gladly matched our cries for "More!"

A comradeship of strangers for an evening -
if we didn't know the words, we'd hum out loud,
and down our pints then loudly order others;
as a group of lonely strangers, for a moment, became a crowd.

In this company of Crusoes we're all equal;
seek some friendship here to while away the hours.
Why stay homebound when the bed you sleep in's empty:
We're all looking for an answer, but the question's never found.

So we go down to the Local to forget some -
might get lucky with a lady, if she's easy -
Buyin' rounds with the men, and soon everyone's your friend;
but no one knows your name tomorrow evening.

The embers in the fire are slowly dying,
as I turn my back and hear the door slam, locked.
Another evening over at my Local,
now all I hear's my footsteps as they echo down the block

But I think that I might come again tomorrow,
to share a piece of life with commonn souls
who know the knocks and graces life can deal us,
the best and worst, served noon till late,
at the Thistle and the Rose.


Just a reminder on how important are loved ones really are. I am so lucky to have found the love of my life and I am keeping her.

Poem Time

When I Am Finally Old

When I grow old, my hair, of course,
Will long ago have fled.
So I will need a curly wig;
I think I’ll opt for red.

My eyes have read their last good joke;
In fact, they may be glass.
For them I’ll choose the color green
To remember summer grass.

My teeth will sleep in a cup of water,
And there they will stay all night.
In morn I will press them into place;
At least they will be white.

All joints-the elbow, knee, and ankle-
Will be held together by screws.
The hips will be completely plastic.
I’ll wear corrective shoes.

A skillful doctor with careful scalpel
Will pare off front and big behind.
Everything will be lifted or shifted.
To all these changes, I’m resigned.

There will be so little left that’s me,
I’ll have to change my name.
I think I’ll become “Bionica.”
I’d advise you all to do the same.

10. (a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 6 (f) 1

Now add up the total number of points.

OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should "handle
with care." You're seen as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely
dominant. Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you,
but don't always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply
involved with you.

51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile,
rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make
decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and
advent! uresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes
chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company
because of the excitement you radiate.

41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming,
amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly
in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let
it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and
understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful &
practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest.
Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone
who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same
loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes
a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes
you a long time to get over it, if that trust is ever broken.

21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy.
They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady
plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something
impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine
everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide
against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your carefulnature.

UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and
indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone
else to make the decisions & who doesn't want to get involved with
anyone or anything! They see you as a worrier who always sees problems
that don't exist. Some people think you're boring. Only those who know
you well know that you aren't.
