i had to share























































you may ask where is she going that she needs such a big hat..well, she is going nowhere..she brought me the hat and said "momma hat"

I told her she did not need a hat, and she took the hat from me and put it on her big fat head and has been wearing it ever since.

I love this kid:)

ponderings and abnormal thoughts



PONDERABLES

Can you cry under water?


How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?

If money doesn't grow in trees then why do banks have branches?

Since bread is square, then why is sandwich meat round?

Why do you have to "put your two cents in"...but it's only a "penny for your thoughts?"
Where's that extra penny going to?

Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?

What disease did cured ham actually have?


How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?

Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours?

If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?

If you drink Pepsi at work in the Coke factory, will they fire you?

Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?

Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binocularsto look at things on the ground?

How come we choose from just two people for President and fifty for Miss America?

Why do doctors leave the room while you change? They're going to see you naked anyway.

If a 911 operator has a heart attack, whom does he/she call?

Why is "bra" singular and "panties" plural?

Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet soup?

Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out!"

Or watch a white thing come out a chicken behind and think, "that ought to taste good."

Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?

When your photo is taken for your driver's license, why do they tell you to smile?

If you are stopped by the police and asked for your license, are you going to be smiling?

If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a stupid song about him?

Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane?

If the professor on Gilligan's island can make a radio out of a coconut,why can't he fix a hole in a boat?

Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?

What do you call male ballerinas?

If Wyle E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?

If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables,what is baby oil made from?

If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

Is Disney World the only people trap operated by a mouse?

Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?

Why did you just try singing the two songs above?

Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your butt?

Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride; he sticks his head out the window?

________________________________________________

if u have any thoughts u have been pondering, please feel free to jot them down and we can discuss them in further at a later date:)

Sorry, just had to get these thoughts off my chest....and I have nothing else for the day...:)

someone please put a fork in my eye

well Tuesday was ugggggg!!! It rained and did not get past 60 degress today. I tried getting the rest of my wallpaper off the living room walls..tried..being the oprative word here. Worked all day, then painted about one tiny section..and called it all good:)

I dont know what is wrong with me. I mean I have one spawn in school full time, one spawn going to school full days every other day (KNG here is like that..not sure why) and I have one spawn who will be heading to pre-school next year ( if i can get her to do her normally body functions in the proper respepticles)....

This time next year I could be sitting on my screened porch wearing maybe a light jacket, sipping a Mint Julep enjoying the peace that is...Maybe going out and weeding around my friut tree or pollentaing something, or watering my palm tree or
something..

But why I am thinking that a baby sounds nice???..Someone please put a fork in my eye. Why would I want to sacrfrice alone time..for poop, vomit, and no sleep time??..Someone please put a fork in my eye.I am this close to having all them shipped out to school and married...why do I want to mess with a good thing? And who wants 4 kids? I dont!!

I hate being pregant, I hate gaining weight, I hate puking at all hours of the night and day, I hate being so fat I can not tie my own damn shoes, I hate labor/delivery, I hate stiches in that area....But...the one thing that can make that all better....the smell of a baby!!....Has to be the best smell, unless they have a load in thier pants, vomit on thier clothes, or wearing dipaer rash cream..Then they dont smell all that good.

Someone please put a fork in my eye!!

I am not pregant , nor do I have any futrue plans on it. I mean isnt it normal for mothers whose toddlers are growing up way too fast to have a breif moment of insane thoughts of doing it all over again??? Or I am the only one?

I mean I love babies, when they get to be about 2 and start talking back and 8 and start having meltdowns and kissing girls...thats when it all goes arye. Kind of like getting a puppy. They are so cute..They can do no wrong..But yet in about 6 months time you want to put a fork in your eye for being so stupid as to think that getting a puppy was a good idea. The fork in your eye is your punishment for such crazy thoughts. It wont kill you, yet it will make you see things more clearly..Granted you will be blind in that eye, but at least you now know that if you mess up again you will be totally blind. I think it would be quite a deturant. But thats just my thinking.

Ok I was soooo freaking dissapointed last night. I took a sceduled break at around 8pm..put some of my fat free poopcorn in the micro and grabbed a diet dr pepper. Got the goods out of the micro and plopped down on my sofa. Turned it on FOX...aww, yes my show night...2 best shows in one night..It does not get any better. I sit back and WTF!!?? It is a freaking baseball game.

On a bright note I wacthed a sitcom called ...um..something to do with the name earl..cant remeber the name..It was soo funny...Then I watched The office, another funny gem. Too bad I can not watch them as I will not watch these shows when House is on..So note to NBC..dont put your best shows on at the same time as better shows. like put them on thursday in place of will and grace or some other lame as& show..ok, tip from me..i will give this tip for you for free, next time there will be a finders fee..

well have a happy hump day..luv 2 u all

one big lazy peice of me

I love these days. The days the older spawns are both at school and baby spawn is napping:)

I look around my house and I see at least 3 things just in this room that I should be doing. But what I am doing?..I am blogging and watching another lame hour of Days of Our Lives.

This is my only "alone" time. These times are few and far between. sure baby spawn naps everyday. But this is just too darn nice to actually have to do any work. Why cant I just sit here, watch my soap, and then maybe..(and that is a big maybe) do some work afterward?..Or better yet, why not nap? Gosh the nap is to me like what a jungle gym full of balls and ice cream is to a kid..You can not get enough of any of it.

It is raining cats and hippos today. It is cold, it is wet, it is gray. And I hate it. I need sunshine. I almost feel naked without it. Soon the leaves will start to fall and then I will have to start raking. And then..shortly after that , it will begin to snow..Then I will hybernate. Why cant we hybernate? It really isnt fair that bears and frogs and other animals can sleep through the crappiest season in the land. I would love nothing more than to crawl in a nukker hole, and curl up with a fluffy pillow and blankie and just lay there as long as I want...And finally arise with smell of sunshine and flowers. Feel the warm sun on my face and hear the birdies singing. Ahh, whatever!!

Well my little break is over, I must go peel wallpaper:-)

being taken over by the ladies

Well my Monday was for crap, lets see what Tuesday holds for little ole me..I still can not believe my mother up and left with telling NO ONE.

Anyway , my babyspawn made me smile today. she was holding the picture I had taken recently of the 3 of them..She was pointing at each kid and telling me there names. The I would point at the kids and say thier names. When I was done she looked up at me with the biggest smile, clapped her hands, and said " ood ob momma" ( good job momma in baby spawn talk)..I dont know why..but it just made me smile inside..she kept doing it everytime I would say each spawns name..Like she was encourgaeing me , because she thought I may have been losing my mind or something. Like she was glad too see much improvment in my mental capacity in remebering everyones name.

Seems my house is being overtaken by lady bugs. They are all over the windows, doors, my walls, i can here them hitting my lights as they are flying around like mad looking for a place to land. And I can not tell if these are the biteing kind or the harmless kind. Either way, they do not belong here and I am forcing them to move out.

The northern part of this crap in a hole, state is under a freaking winter storm watch..Man it is only October people..this is not normal..it is not suppose to snow in October!!!



Well I am off, have a good Tuesday

No funny here, nope not today

Not sure what is wrong. Lately I have been overwhelemed with a sence of yuck!!

I am sure this post is going to bore everyone so just move on..I will try to post something more up-beat and funny another day..I hope..(on a side note if u met me, I would undoubtably be the funniest gal u know).

Anyhoo, I am not myself lately. I have tried doing things to make myself better. Nothing is working. I hate living here, I hate everything about it. Well I love my house, but that doesnt even help.

The hubby loves his job, the kids love thier freinds and are loving school, baby spawn is growing and as happy as all get out, even the dog is happy.

But me, I am not. I knew when we were on our journey here that I would not enjoy it. I just kept telling myself that I had always wanted to move..and now we are moving, I will be ok when we get there. Truth is..That is not the case. You can not make yourself like a place that you dont.

I told hubby maybe if we waited a differnt, better job offer would come..in the south..where I want to go..Well he didnt want to go there. But me, just wanting to move out of the "homeland" was willing to do whatever to leave. big mistake..

I thought the fact that hubby would be making more money, that things would be ok..Not so..I know now that no matter how much money you have or dont have, money doesnt make you happy..Now hubby has just got another raise..It doenst even matter to me, I just wanna leave here..

Now we are argueing about when to leave. He says we will..I want to get the process going now..He wants to wait till the spawns are out of school. Which makes sence, but I dont think he has a fuc*ing clue how much I hate being here. I really dont know if I can take it that long. I know making the spawns switch schools in the middle of a school year is assnine. We had to do it last year, and oldest spawn had a rough time. But now momma spawn is having a rough time being here. I kinda realize how kissing spawn felt when we came here. I treid telling him it would be ok, he would make friends..things would be good. I guess I was really trying to convince myslef the same thing. How can I tell my 8 year old it will be ok, when I know I am not happy either.?!

Now both spawns love thier life..They love school, thier friends..everything..they are happy spawns right now. I tell myself kids adjust well to change, and that it may be tough at first for them to adjust to a new place..But just like they did here, they will make lots of new friends.

Right now I am just consumed with a saddness that wont let up. I want despartley to leave this state and head to where I had wanted to go in the first place.

Nothing I do or say can make anyone realize what agony I am in.

I know this is a stupid thing to have consume me. I mean my spawns are healthy, happy and cute,we have a nice home, nice things, live in a "good" neighborhood,have nice cars...There should be no reason why I feel this way. Other than the fact I hate it here.

I am tired of fighting with hubby about this, because it is obvious he has no clue what I am feeling. Telling me its going to happen, that we will move...Is not working. There is no process started..there is nothing but talk.

So now I just sit here consumed with this awful feeling in me that I can not rid. who the hell knows when we will leave, not soon enough for me.

Hubby just thinks that when he is ready..poof a job will show up..and poof our house will sell... and poof this and poof that...

Whatever, I will just sit here being missreable..Wishing we could get this moving..Ya no like get your resume out there..Do somethig other than tell me "its gonna happen".

Most days I just want to cry .. This is what happens when mom is not happy.

Looks like I will be cryiing for a few more months now. Please hand me the tissue box.

Writing this is just making me more pissed off. SO I am gonna go hit somthing. Preferably something that does not have fur. ( no I would never hit an animal)..LOL

I need to go do something...

Hopefuly I will have it in me to write something worth while later. truth is..blogging just isnt working for me right now.

And yes, I can hear your violins:)

an interview and things i have learned

I am being interviewed by my good blogger buddy Kish...These are her questions for me

1. What is your dream job? Probably a Labor and Delivery nurse, or a circus clown


2. What is your all time favorite movie?Well I have two...First one is Willy Wonka and the Chocalote Factory...The second is Rain Man


3. If Heaven exists, what do you want to hear God say to you when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? I have waited all my life to finally meet you, may I have your autograph



4. What is your favorite memory of someone who has passed away? (name the person and the memory). This is hard for me because I have not had any close famliy or friends pass on...I had a great grandparents who lived in and around the Detroit area and when we would go there for a weekend grandpa would walk me to his garden and show his veggies . And grandma would walk us down to her neighbors to take us swimming.


5. What is your favorite curse word?ok, what is not my favorite curse word. I must admit I do have a sailors mouth at times...My fav word to pop out at any given moment is the f-bomb or any other 4 letter word I know:)...but I am trying to clean it upo..southern belles such as myself dont have potty mouths ya know??..LOL

So if any of you want to be interviewed let me know and I will get you some questions of your own.

***********************************************************************

Ok, I have a dirty little secret..I have been watching Martha..I dont mean every now and then, I mean I have my butt in front of my tv at 11 am when I know the show is starting.

I have tried avoiding it..It is like a train wreck, but I can not stop myself.

So I thought I would share some things that I have learned from Martha over the past few weeks

1.you can make homeade ravioli useing won ton wrappers...who knew??

2.dont put oil in when you are boiling noodles..the oil makes it so the sauce does not adhere well to the noodles

3.you can make carmalized chicken just by sauting the chicken and saving the juice.

4.instead of buying skinless chicken breast, you should buy the kind with the skin. You can make a little pocket in the skin and shove all your seasoning in there ..bake it..then remove the skin if you wish..nice moist tasty chicken:)

5. Use a babmoo scerwer to hold a 2 layer cake togther

6.intsead of having your regaulr ole dish soap bottle on your counter, get a nice decortive bottle and pour your liquid in there and then just buy a pump to put on top..

I will stop there....I just like sharing what I know....Dont shoot the messenger ok!!

So my dirty secert is out....Do you feel better now that I just humilated myself in front of all of you??...You happy!!!!!!

OK I must go...I must go do my walk of shame.

Must have been some mix up in hospital

2 lame posts in one day...It does not get much better than this right???

So I had a bit of a domestic streak while baby spawn was napping..Yes I baked cookies again..From scratch..( it is kind of like an illness..I am desperately searching for the cure)

Anyway when baby spawn wakes up I go get her and take her to my stock pile of home made goodness..I say " you want to a have a cookie?"

" No momma, I want a nana"....Ok what just happened here?..Did my baby flat down refuse a cookie and ask for a freaking banana???...This must be a dream...Now I am not a cookie eater, never really have been..I love cookie dough yes..But when u bake it..it kinda wrecks the cookie for me...But I love the smell;)

So baby spawn wanted to get a bunny out..Or as she says " unny momma..unnie out..peese"



































Santa, please get me a camera that doesn't take crappy pictures for Christmas...One that wasn't handed down to me from someone who was not putting any thought to a birthday gift for me and gave me their used camera...Thank you Santa:)

blah,blah, freaking blah!!

so yesterday my precious baby spawn turned from my bundle of love and cuddles , and turned into a demontic little brown eyed beauty that started talking back to me. just a short while ago I was in awe of her. There is something about her. She has this beauty and cuteness that melts me. I am sure the other 2 spawns were the same at this age, maybe I am just enjoying her more because I am in a good spot in life. I am not sure..And older and wiser and take time for the little things with her. With the other 2 I worked full time for a while. Sucked big time.

But today I caught her jumping on covert spy spawns bed. Before she noticed I was watching she had this glee in her eye. she was truly happy at that very moment of her short life. As soon as she caught wind of me watching this display, she took her finger (yes that finger again) and she waved it and pointed at me and said " no momma u go"...Now mind u this is the same little prescious finger that curled around my finger when she was a newborn, the same finger I would hold as she was learning to walk, the finger she touched her object with, the same finger she has noticed fits nicely in her nose, the same finger she pointed at me Monday as she was trying to save the house from burning to a ruble of fire and soot.

she kept pointing that finger at me and pointing me toward the door and telling me to go. How did this happen? Where have I went wrong? Do these kids not realize if they did not have me to make lunches, clean toilets, do dishes,fold laundry and make dinner for everyone that I would leave!!! Fact is..this house would not run without me. And I know this. If I were to die today...My kids would be sent to school and church (along with various other outings and controlled activites) with mis matched clothes and tangled hair. My hubby has no concept of what an outfit is. I purposes fold thier clothes in outfit segments. I fold the top and bottoms of any matching clothing article together . Just for this very situation!! These kids dont realize how good they have it here with me:)

Well I think hubby and I will be putting our home on the market in january or february. We are hoping for a move in late spring early suumer , so the kids can finish out school here. Not like anyone really comes to visit us anyway. So no biggy in that area.

HOUSE was good tonight...well I have seen better, but it was still good. NIP/TUCK was very good too. I know, I know, you dont see me as a fan of such a dirty and provocative show. It may as well be on your local porn station with all the sex and nudity on there. ( not that there is anything wrong with all that..in moderation of course..LOL). It is a dirty hidden secert ( like me haivng a southern belle hiding deep down). But I like shows that are, shall we say, risky, for lack of a better word. I was there when Roseanne had that female kiss, when Ellen came out, when Rosie came out, when "who ever" shot JR, when whatever happens on what ever show is on.
Not sure where I am going with this so I will just stop.

Have a happy Hump Day and since it worked for some of you yesterday, I am wishing for a day with no bills..as well as no junk mail...I will keep my fingers crossed on that for ya;)

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:)

Is anyone else having troubles


Even this morning I can not get blogger photo to work..Is anyone else having trouble with Blogger? Or am I the only one Blogger hates..I know my blog sucks, but come on Blogger..Trust me I have seen worse..Why do you hate me? I will keep trying throughout the day. If it doesn't work soon I am deleting this whole suckyblog and forget I ever had one..Then I am finding me a nice attorney..(who will work pro bono off course) to sue the pants off Google and Blogger for pain and suffering caused from Blogger having brain farts..

Please check back later and I hope to have it up
