goings on and movings on

So I finally got freaking blogger to post my pics..Dang ole waste of time for me..I hate when I waste time I things that really make no differnce to me or anyone else. I mean in the time I spent trying to get my pics posted, I could of cured world cancer, the AIDs epedmic, world hunger, made more cookies from scratch, wash clothes, play with my baby, went for walk, took a nap..or just plain sit and waddle in y own filth I call home:)

Today as I was making my dinner..Spageti, yes last night was Italian night here..With my home made sauce, from the fresh tomatos from my garden...(ok , that part is a lie..the rest should be all truth...well..most of it anyway)..The smoke alarm went off..( not an unsual site in my home while the slop is brewing)..Normally when this happnes I grap a kitchen towel and wave it in front of the alarm..I dont know if I think I am shueing the smoke out, or trying to give the alram the "ok, thanks for the warning sign" But that is what I do..

Anyhoo as the alarm was rining my baby spawn grabs a shirt that was laying in my pile of folded laundry..and she gave me the finger..You the know the finger you give as you are telling someone...just a minute I will take are of it. "The hold up minute..I will be right back"..finger...Bless her little heart, she waved that shirt like nobodys buisness trying to "signal" the mother trucking alarm ITS OK DARN FOOL..MY MOM IS JUST COOKING. she stood there waving and waving that shirt..When it stopped she had a very proud look on her little face...Yup..my baby is takin care of bid-niss..(buisness in baby talk)....

And she is getting too smart...the older spawns were yelling "swiper no swiping, swiper no swiping"....and what did my little baby spawn say...." oh man"...( for those of u with no young children...i know u r lost).....Does this mean she is smart, or that she watches too much tv?....I am going with smart factor myself.

My hubby and I have decided agianst buying a house closer to the city...We have decided to move one more time..a big move...We are wanting to move to the southen part of the US of A....I was wanting to move to the Florida area..Now I am wanting South Carolina, or maybe Geogia..what many of you dont know..I have a southern belle in me wating to explode..and I dont think she is from Florida..dont get me wrong I think Florida is beautful...well parts of it anyway...I dont think I am going to find my spot in Flordia..too many Florida transplants are there..I will not get my southern twang there when most of the residnts are true northeners..

I have had this acheing dream..or fantasy if you will, of having a terocota roof with 2 palm trees in front and an orange tree in m y backyard where I will pick ornages everyday and squeeze my own juice..( yes , yet anohter dream that will never happen..too much work)....

I have family in Florida..Key West is a place I have always wanted to live...but I am thinking I wont get the feel I am looking for there....But I am jelous of everyone who lives there...I think they might be one of the 10 commandments...."Thou shalt not envy others who live in a paradise"

Dont get me wrong..MN is beautful, and MI is nice too..But I am just not feeling settled here, nor is the hubby. Niether of us want to go back to MI...

He still has a 2 year commitnment left at this job...I mean they paid for our entire move..came packed up our old house...moved to our new one..unpacked it..paid for the closing on this house...tried helping sell our old one..Plus he gets a hefty relocation bonus for the next few years he works there...So we will wait it out..

Anyway, I have went on long enough...My hair is falling out...so I need to make a Dr apppointment...I think I need some thryoid pills..the part of my throyid I have left..must not be functioing right...This is Dr. Christina,s diganoses..and she is always right..

Have a happy Tuesday and may you and yours get the mail today and not a single bill be in your box:)

So, as the house burns down, and everyone is running, the baby will be fanning the alarm.
Your pictures are looking good,,,however they have been hi-jacked by ol 'too cute'. I'll bet she can make her Dad do anything.

Christina _ I think there really is a domestic streak in you! Look at you go the last few weeks. your basement is ADORABLE. i still wonder how you get all that done with a little one at your feet. My son would have been into the paint in a second at that age :). I think it is great you guys have come to a mutual decision to make one big move. Not to mention all the work you are doing on your house, might as well enjoy it for a while.

Funny, we had Spaghetti for dinner too. That is adorable about baby spawn helping put out the fire :). maybe you have a little future fire fighter on your hands ;).

Me said...

I don't know about MI either....

Baby Spawn is so fricken cute! I think she's smart too :)

I thought all smoke alarms worked as timers... you mean there is another use for them? NO WAY?

Have a great day!

Mise en Place said...

Swiper is the BEST!! I lived in the Keys at one point in my life, it was ok but a better place to visit. If I had to pick I would pick SC my sister lived there,it's beautiful. Not that you asked me, lol!

Have a great one.

cliff,thats what i had kids for..too fan my fires in the kitchen..LOL

Kish, yes I am getting worrired about this domstic streak..I need to find a cure and fast.

Beth, i suppose you too wanna follow me when I move..I guess ya,ll better just pack and come with me:)

Momma, well that is kinda what I was using them for, but i guess baby spawn thinks it is nothing to joke about..LOL

Mommyblogr, i agree swiper is the best..LOL....yes the Keys are nice to visit..agreed there too:)

Misty said...

North carolina is incredibly beautiful, as is the savannah area of georgia... i would be rooting for them myself!
i totally (TOTALLY) understand about sticking it out somewhere and waiting....

Foxy said...

baby spawn is too cute. :) i love em at this age! we're going through the moving dilemma stage too..ny is too damn expensive and the winters are loooong, and plus i miss my fam in va. i lived in orlando with d for 6 mo and we had an orange tree in our backyard- i loved it- love the palm trees too. but it was too damn hot- lol

Twisted Lady said...

Every time baby sister steals big sister's toys she yells, "SWIPER! Swiper NO swiping!" LOL!

It took me a looong time to figure out what the hell she meant by "The farm animals are missing!"

eyes_only4him said...

Misty,I was thinking Georgia would be nice..North carolina would be as far north as I would want to go..and out west is out of the question..too many weird animals and bugs out that way..LOL

Vani, I alwyas thought living in NY would be all rad..but I when a one bedroom apptarment cost more than my house...I do not think I would be able to afford in anything but a box..LOL..hope your move goes well if u do move..

Thersea, swiper needs to learn manners..that is what my middle spawn says..LOL....

You're a crack up. This was so funny. Baby helping with the fire alarm. What a helper! :) I love "aw man" from the little ones when they are starting to talk. Cracks. Me. Up! :) Take care. And, have a good day.

Indeed Florida has been taken over by us Northerners and you wouldn't want to be caught hanging around with us. You could end up with a New York accent as opposed to a southern one and then everyone would think you were a Yankee. Excellent story about baby spawn. I can just see mine doing something like that when she is old enough. Wait a minute finger and all.

Tee/Tracy said...

Thanks for the no bill blessing LOL.

My kids do Swiper too. All Stay at Home Moms know what you're talking about. LOL.

Michigan is a great place to live!!! But I'd rather be way up north or more south of where I'm at, but I'm good for now!
But if I had my choice to move? I'd definitely go to Georgia! Oh, yeah, thats where my "southern Belle screaming to get out" butt would be! My aunt and uncle moved there from Florida and then back to florida due to work relocation and their house and the houses around are GORGEOUS! On top of being cheaper than what we get here for 400,000! Amazing! I would love to live there. Anyhow, that is my fantasy! And Florida...nice but too many hurricanes floating around in that area and it gets too danged hot in the summer!!!

Jamie Dawn said...

I've got a southern belle in me too. I commented and posted back and forth with a lady in NC and we both want to be sipping mint juleps on our porches in fine, southern style.
Hubby and I are planning a move to possibly SC or NC some day. We shall see...
We've got some money making plans to take care of first... of course, it's always money.

I Wish I could motivate enough to paint. My whole house needs it, to much paneling. By the way your basement looks great!

eyes_only4him said...

D, i am thinking i need to take my out of my kitchen..they alwyas go off when i am cooking my slop..LOL hate moving too..I already dont live by family..so i figure i might as well live in a paridsie if i am gonna be awya from them..and maybe they might visit..LOL

Lumpy,glad i am not alone in thikning that about florida..i was afraid i was going to offend someone..LOL

I was born in SC and raised in Ga. I moved north at 38 but only as far as Va. It is HOT down there. I mean Ga and SC in the summer time is 100+ and 99% humidity for weeks on end. Think long and hard before you take that jump. A/C is required to survive. Old people and babies die in that kind of heat. It is sad but true.

Thank you so much for your "no bills" blessing... we didn't get any bills in the mail today - just the weekly shopper...WHooHOO!

Hey - are you still a days fan? Go to the stuff in my head link on my page - she saw some hotty in person from the show...thought you would like to know....

There are lots of beautiful places to live in Georgia, and if you come south we may be only a couple of hours apart! : ) PS The comments are working again.
