Gotta get busy!

Since that darling man I call my husband has decided that Little Miss will be having a birthday party on Saturday, I now have to do an actual cleaning. Not one of those swipe at shit and go on cleanings! OK, I admit, we do a small party every year. This year was to be no different. I had planned a cake and ice cream and let the Hellions and Little Miss run wild for a few hours. OH. NO! The man who at this point is on my last nerve, has decided that we will again be doing the hamburger, hot dog, more work for me thing again this year.

Oh, but this is not the best part…..OH. NO! This I could handle. Where it is usually 11 people plus us (15-17), all family, all know I often feel like shit and tend to ignore my dust and such. (Or at least don’t mention it to me.) No this year he has invited a few more people. His boss, his cousins and The Boy’s friend and family. Bringing us to a total of about 30!!!!!!!!! Now the cousins, probably won’t come and even if they do, they won’t come in the house. And if they manage to come in the house, they know I often feel like shit and would ignore cobwebs streaming down into their face. They are men after all.

The Boy’s friend and his family, they also don’t bother me, he is here a LOT and knows that my house is clean and a mess all at the same time. Hell, he makes part of the mess!

So that leaves us with the boss and his family. I love them! I adore all of them. They are sweet and nice and all of that great shit…..but…… they have never been to the house. We always go to their house and their house is always clean and so damn cute! I also have avoided any talk of my health, so my feeling like shit and all is completely unknown to them! So my dust, cobwebs (that I just noticed by the way!), jumbled up mess of a disorganized house will be a shock to them.

I swear the house is clean! Well, mostly. There lays the problem. While I have felt like shit and kinda swiped at the tables and picked up the crap and such, I haven’t actually moved things and cleaned under them. Or behind the sink. Or around the ceiling fan. Or the top of the desk. Or under the desk. Or in my room (hell no one ever sees that room). You know those areas that are just a pain in the ass and nobody ever sees that anyway. SO as long as the surface looks good…….

And Little Miss’ room, while some what clean, it needs dusting and vacuuming and such. And clothes put up. And bed sheets changed. Oh, hell. I will just admit it……The whole house needs a good cleaning! Yes, I could close off rooms and forbid anyone from entering, but with my luck both bathrooms will be needed at the same time and to get to one you have to go through my room! So………With the exception of The Boy’s room, every room in the house could be seen. And The Boy’s friend’s little boy always goes to The Boy’s room to find cars to play with, so there goes that theory, because that would take M’s wife right in there!

So I guess I must get up off my ass and do a week’s worth of cleaning in 2 days!!!!! SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!!!!!! And as far as the cooking goes…….Chips to go with that grilled stuff. And guess who is suppose to grill and has now announced that he will be gone a good chunk of Saturday helping someone do something! Yeah, I foresee us eating real late! For he who made the decision to do all of this will be doing the grilling, if we are all here until midnight waiting for him to get done!

Where is the RUM? I think I am going to need it!!!!!!!!!!!! Rum, alcohol of any kind will be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!! Just send lots and lots!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Until next time…………..

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!!! (And wish me luck! I need it)

Happy Birthday Little Miss!!!!!

Today my baby girl is in the double digits! Holy Crap! Where does the time go? I can see the teenage years barrelling towards me like an out of control freight train and it scares the hell out of me! She already has the attitude, can it get worse? She is not a baby anymore *tears up*. *sniff, sniff* There is something about those single digit years that just make you feel like they are still your little baby. Then hits those double digits and the dread of teen years grabs a hold of your trotters (which I don’t happen to have) and yanks!

She is going to spend the night with a friend instead of spending the evening with her family! Talk about all grown up! We are doing a small party for her Saturday evening but still today is her birthday! Oh, well gotta let them grow up. I just can’t believe she prefers friends to family already!!!!

So her dad said if she can’t stay home and see him on her birthday, she could wait for her gift. (He just isn’t as mature as I am. *sticking out my tongue!*) So whats a mom to do…..I helped her make her very own Face Book page! She has been wanting one, so cool mom that I am……I got her one!!!! It is all private so I don’t have to worry about any perverts finding her. And guess who was her first friend……..That’s right………her very cool mom!

Note that I keep pointing out how cool I am?………….It is because she thinks I am the biggest DORK to walk the planet! And she is standing right here with me and she is absolutely MORTIFIED that I would say such! So since it is her birthday and all and she is dying to get on the computer and do all those cool things that double digit kids do. I will go for now! So until next time…………

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THINKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!!

And I am back

How was your weekend? Mine went OK I guess, It wasn’t overly eventful.

Friday Little Miss stayed the night with Grandma. Funny, she didn’t mention it. She said Granddaddy was taking her to the library and she would return my book for me and get me the 4th Twilight book if it was in (her idea not mine.). I told her it was a bit of a ways for Granddaddy to come just to carry her to the library and she said, “Oh, he don’t mind.” When she hadn’t returned in an hour, I called Grandma. Little Miss was over there, spending the night! Thanks for the heads up! So date night was on. We ran into town and picked up Little Miss’ birthday present. SSSHHHH! She thinks we haven’t got it yet. Then home to the computer and reading.

I have finished “Sense and Sensibility”. I went on to a Danielle Steel book and then another romance book (It was a adventure/romance book. Pretty Good.) The last book was the 3rd in a series! Guess who didn’t have the other two! It stood alone, but it would have been nice to read the other two first. I have started on an unsolved mystery one, several stories in one book. I must say it is not a book to read late at night when you are up by yourself! I thought these were OLD crimes, UH, NO. Some are from the late 90s and a couple were not too far away. Kinda creepy to think these sickos are still out there and could be close. *shiver*

The 4th was……well……like any other holiday around here! MIL wanted to control all. So I stayed here and cooked the baked beans my dear BIL asked me to cook. Hubby piddled in the yard, Little Miss came home early (because she thought we were going somewhere) and *SURPRISE* The Boy was home all day. (Course he ain’t going far without a license and his buddies had other plans.) The dinner that was to be between 4 and 5, was eaten at about 3:30. Thank you SIL. It was decided we would do fireworks at Red’s house this year instead of ours. *YAY!! Happy Dance* Somewhere around dark we should be over there, they had another family obligation and would be home by then.

‘Bout 4:30 I got a call from SIL, she was making Strawberry Daiquiris. Only she was having to substitute an ingredient. Her recipe called for Limeade and she had lemonade and lime juice. (to be quite honest, I buy the mix, but to each there own.) She needed assistance making them. Well, if alcohol was involved and I wasn’t having to buy it…… my assistance was a guarantee! So she run over to get me, since hubby and BIL had run off to the beer store for refreshments for them. The daiquiris, if I do say so myself, were DELISH! With the glasses she was using we got 4 drinks out of each blender we made up. We made up 3 blenders before Red got home (They got home early, seems his family is not as entertaining as ours. heh!). Then we moved the party to Red’s. One of the few times I can say…….Thank God we all live on the same road! When we moved the party, we came by and got our dear boy, who apparently had no sober friends to come get him. So we decided, his unsober parents would enjoy his company, with the agreement that he could drink with us, but he couldn’t fight. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!! Gotta love a tipsy mom! The rest of the night was a few fireworks (AWE! Disappointment, not enough bang for the buck!) and several more blenders of Daiquiris. We got home a little after 12 and Little Miss was gracious enough to go to sleep by a little after 1am, so her rather….uh…tipsy mother could crawl into the shower and bed.

There has been much talk of whether mother was drunk. The Boy said I was. Hubby said I had to be because I quit drinking. Little Miss said I must have been, I was nice. *Ain’t she sweet?* I say NO! I quit drinking because they quit making the daiquiris. They kept talking about making more, but nobody’s drunk ass would go in the house and do it. Red and SIL made about, I think, 8 more blenders ( or more, the crew says about 12 more, I doubt that many!). (Red makes hers with more Rum! If the recipe called for 6oz…..SIL put in 6 oz. Red on the other hand, would say that looks like 6oz and then add a bit more for good measure. And she was adding something else to the mix but I haven’t a clue what it was. It had an alcohol content on the side, but I didn’t notice how much. It did add to the taste though.) The Boy accused me of wanting to be like Captain Jack Sparrow, we have been watching the Pirate movies.  I still say I was walking pretty much straight and remember everything that was said, so I was a bit tipsy, but nowhere near drunk!

Sunday showed up without a hangover, which I was grateful for. Me and Rum usually don’t agree very well. I like it, but it isn’t very nice the next day. I pretty much sat around and did as little as possible. Everyone seemed to do as little as possible. It has to be the heat.

Then Monday was Monday. Cleaning and washing. Since The Boy’s buddy spent the night on our recliner, I didn’t post. I didn’t feel so well all day, wonder if you can get a delayed hangover? Anyway…….now you know how my weekend went. I was grateful we had no injuries. I seem to get a horrible burn every year, but not this year. Well, I should go. I have Facebook shit to do and plurking and then of course….more washing. Damn, I hate my dryer! Until next time………………..

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!!

Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July Ya’ll!

 

Hoping everyone eats too much and has too much fun. Be Safe!

I’ve got nothing………

Really, nothing at all. I am home alone. I have got 8 hours of sleep under may belt. I actually got in the shower at 9:30 with high hopes of a 10pm bedtime. I finally got there at 11pm, but still better than usual. I slept til 8am, but since it was so quiet I laid in bed til almost 9. A bit better rested.

Little Miss spent the night at Grandma’s last night. Haven’t a clue as to why, she seems to think there are big plans that include her Saturday. Her father is planning to go to a car show on Saturday and she thinks she is going for some strange reason, but after the disastrous truck show, she is not invited to the car show. Or so he says now, we will see how it goes Saturday. There has been talk of going to the boss’s house that night for fireworks, but that has not been decided yet. The 4th is usually a heavy drinking night and we are not sure we are ready to outgrow that tradition yet. heh! No one wants to be the sober one in the group.

So what else? On my personal FB account, I finally got the house on FarmTown. WOOT! I know you are all excited for me. heh! OH. MY. HELL.  My flowers are bigger than the house, but who cares, I can now “live” on my farm. I am about 1000 bucks from the house on the blogger one, I will manage it somehow. I am in process of rearranging and that occupies my time, much to the dislike of my family.

Hubby talked of getting a FB account, he didn’t know why, but he thought he would. I made him an email account, his own personal account. With a very spot on name and everything. I was so proud of myself. But will he give it out, why hell no! Does he want a FB account now? Why hell no! I swear he is just trying to piss me off! I may make him one and make him friends with people and just run the damn thing myself! I can constantly have him sporting women’s underwear and having PMS! Piss me off, I can show him.

Well, that is about all I have. My brain is full of shit, but nothing worth posting, I am working on pulling out a good rant, but right now, it just ain’t coming together. So until next time……………

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!

It’s exhaustion……

I have had several rather annoying issues here lately. Headaches, dizziness, tingling, nausea….the list goes on and on. It boils down to I have felt like shit! I have decided it is all due to complete exhaustion! I am tired. I am give out. And that is causing me to get easily frustrated and run down. I swear I think I am coming down with some sort of summer cold on top of it all! Could it get any worse? Please don’t answer that! I know it could.

As I may have mentioned, my darling, Little Miss has been having issues with actually going to bed. Spoilt as she is (and as skittish), she can’t go to sleep unless someone is up. (And to boot, she requires the hall light on until she is asleep and I can’t sleep with the light on in the hall because the light shines right in my eyes. Before you say it, I can’t sleep with the door closed either.) She more or less goes right on to bed, some resistance is expected during the summer months. But I feel like a 10 pm bedtime is generous on the weeknights. 11pm on weekends. She is only 9 after all. Hell at this point I am willing to go with 11 and 12!

She gets in the bed, I sing her a silly song and she says prayers and I leave the room. One dog stays with her and one comes out with me. Misty is the preferred dog and she normally stays without any problem, at least for a while. Then it starts…….

“Mom, can I stay up just 15 minutes more?”

“I just need one more drink.”

“LOVE YA!”

“Can I get in the pool tomorrow?”

“LOVE YA!”

“One more drink.”

“Misty got out of the bed.”

And so on and so forth…..All request and begging always result in………”NO! Go to sleep!” And all “LOVE YAs” result in “love ya.” So this generally goes on for hours! I end up only responding to the “love yas”, because that must be the last words she hears from you, like it will keep something bad from happening and if something bad does happen, she knows the last words were LOVE YA. She is a strange creature sometimes! So as I was saying hours after climbing into bed, she finally dozes off. Around 12-1am (or 2 or 3) I manage to climb into the shower. (I never seem to manage to climb in during the day, unless I am leaving the house for some odd reason.) And after I get out of the shower and put up Daisy, hang up the cordless phone and check all the locks, I finally get to climb in to bed. Generally somewhere around 1 to 1:30 (or 2:30 or 3:30). I often find that hubby is snoring, I am hot, I can’t get comfortable to save my life and the bed sheets are all wrinkled up.

As if that is not enough, I toss and turn until 2:30 (or later), at which time hubby’s alarm starts going off. And the game of hitting the snooze button is on. This goes on for about, oh, 30 minutes. At this point he decides how to actually turn off the clock. (I haven’t a clue why he turns the alarm on, its not like he is actually getting up when it goes off. He will get up at 5 or so when he wakes up.) So sometime after 3am I doze off. And because my internal alarm clock says 8am is the latest I should sleep, I am awake by 8am. I try, unsuccessfully, to go back to sleep, but by 9 I have completely given up on that idea. So I head to the coffee pot and hope the caffeine does the job.

Naps? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!! I remember those, I used to get them when I had some time to myself, not anymore. Since The Boy is home, Little Miss is home and Hubby can pop in at anytime, those are a thing of the past. On the very rare occasion I manage to doze off before someone notices and gets loud, it really just throws off my day. What with washing everyday now and the kids making a complete disaster area of the house by just existing here, I seem to be busy as a bee making honey.

So I have decided I QUIT!  Not really, because all moms know that is not truly an option. I have decided, I am going to have to find a way to get more sleep. Anyone know a good sleep aid? Maybe I just need to be drugged at bedtime. Then nothing will matter. Until I find something, maybe a stress reliever, I guess I will just tough it out. Facebook is a great time  waster. Stupid games.

OK, I have grumbled and I feel better (not really, but at least I got it off my chest.) Until next time…………..

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!!

Edit……I have laid off caffeine at night, I play boring games (not games to wire me up) and I have tried the herbal route. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have thought of ropes and duct tape for Little Miss, but I fear the cops might not appreciate it. heh!

There are some seriously sick people out there!

Google Pervs….Go away….Nothing for you to see here!!!

 

Someone was telling Hubby about a personal site. Not one of those dating sites but one of those free “you have a car to sell and need a date too, we can hook you up.” sites. And the things he was told that was on there, well neither of us could believe it, so we had to check it out ourselves. So add us to the list of sickos, I guess. OH MY WORD!!!!!!!!

We checked out our little state. And HO BOY there are strange people around our neck of the world.  And the things they say go on in the bathrooms of certain stores, well….let’s just say I will no longer be using public restrooms!

So of course we had to check out other states to make sure that they were sicker than our state. We weren’t disappointed! sick, siCK, SICK I tell you! I am not a prude I can assure you. I may not appreciate some of the, uh, stranger aspects of bedroom (or in some cases bathroom) life, but I feel like if you and your willing partner don’t have a problem with it…..go for it. Chains, whips, whatever. But some of these people are SICK! I am not talking about wanting children (That is beyond SICK!). OK, one example….. The title for the ad read……”I want to PUKE on you!” And I thought, ” That is just a way to get people to click on it. It has to be.” I was WRONG! *excuse me while I puke!* And that was one of the nicer ones!

I admit there were some rather attractive people who were looking for their soul mate. (They actually had clothes on and there were pictures of *shock* their face!!!!) They were looking in the wrong place, it may be free, but there is a reason. Some of these people I can assure you could have gone to a bar and had there pick of men and women. I just can’t fathom why they would advertise there. Now a good deal of them were prostitutes and those ads were mainly flagged. Some of them were looking for a rich older man or woman. A good number of those were completely honest about it…..”I am looking for a SUGAR DADDY.” I kid you not. But the majority were just looking  for sex. I don’t have a problem with that, if it works for you. But please, are there really that many sick people out there? If there are, I am opening up a new site and charging a small fee for ads and I will be RICH!!! Justforsickos.com!

Now I have a few suggestions for those people who would advertise there……

1. Fix your damn pictures! If they are sideways on you damn computer they are sideways on every body’s computer! On your computer there is a place where you can flip those suckers upright! You may appear to be laying down, but the pictures are sideways too idiot!  

2. If you are truly looking for a long term relationship, perhaps you might want to show a picture of something besides your….uh….. package! A picture of your face might be nice. MORON! 

3. If you really want to find the man you met at the local hardware store….Maybe run the ad in the area of the hardware store and not in five different areas and your face might be a more appropriate picture than your bare breasts!

4. If you are a dark skinned woman, do  not take your picture against a dark wall, in a dark room. Really all that is seen is the fuchsia bra and panties set you are wearing.

5. Even if you are a single mom, please do not include pictures of yourself with your children! So very NOT cool.

6. If you are in to some very sick shit, add it to the ad, do not mention it in the title of your ad…… “Am looking for a woman to take a dump, not wipe or shower and come see me.” *excuse me I puked a little in my mouth. I swear that was an actual ad!!!!!!!!* Maybe you should mention that later. UGH!

There are so many more suggestions I could make, but…… nausea at the thought of some of these ads prevent it. Like I said if it works for you and you can find someone else who desires the same… Go for it, but UGH. Suffice to say, my husband, found the ads HI- LAR- I- OUS!!!!!!!!!!! And, I admit some of them were rather funny, if not completely desperate. (”I need a date within the hour…call me.” And she actually listed her number!)(For the record no we did not call. Though I was curious if it was her true number.) I am sure he will peruse them again, he thought them soo funny. All I asked of him was he not answer any of them. With a roll of his eyes, I was told, “That would not be a problem!” heh!

So now that I have informed you of the sick people we share the world with (I am sure you will be searching for the site. heh!) I will go for now. Until next time……………

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!!!

And yes a dog died…..

Not  one of mine! And I wasn’t responsible for it’s death. I will get to it in a few minutes. So how was your weekend? Mine went fairly well. It just seemed exceptionally long. I guess it was hot and I spent a great deal of time in the house under the AC, so it seemed much longer.

Friday night  date night, sucked! I was down in my back still so it was computer and reading. Little Miss did stay with Grandma which was a shocker in itself. I fully expected her to change her mind and stay at home. Folks I am still reading Sense and Sensibility! I swear the damn book is getting longer! Jane Austin is adding to it as I read! I know it is her, because they still talk funny! It is holding my interest but good grief, I have never taken so long to read a book. I swear the whole bunch of them are dyslexic in their speech! The words at times, seem all out of order! SO much for speech flowing nicely in that time. I guess I prefer the 1900’s for speech. With it’s elegance and flow. But I will finish the book and find out who they end up with!

Saturday night we went to the boss’s house and visited. I did enjoy it. We had pizza and was suppose to watch a movie, but we ended up sitting around and talking. Hubby shared beer with K and I shared a bottle of wine with his wife, who happens to share my name. Yes, it gets a bit confusing when we are together! When we went to get the pizza, the girls stayed with their daddies. We were have a peaceful conversation when this couple on one of those “gator” 4 wheelers (kinda a cross between a golf cart and 4 wheeler) pulled out of a side road in front of us, they had 2 dogs chasing them. (In all honesty they should have stayed put, they pulled across in front of us and in front of a car that almost hit them. I guess they were in a hurry.) Aneeway, one of the dogs run across the road in front of us and though she tried to miss it, she hit this monster dog (A German shepherd, husky size dog of unknown breed.) She hit the brakes but it was too late. Her choices were….the dog, the “gator” the couple was on and the car behind them, or the ditch) The dog seemed to be the best option. She felt bad and was going to stop, but the couple kept going and we had to assume the dog did not belong to them and had no idea who it might belong to.

So we get just a  bit further down the road and she spots another dog in the road, a small wee little thing. And she is about to get nervous, when the dog comes up on the stop sign and wait for this……….STOPS AND SITS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!! When she gets through the intersection, he gets up and continues across the road!!!!!!!!!!!! It was absolutely unbelievable! I wish we would have had a camera or a video recorder! We could have gotten rich!

Wanna hear another shocker? I drove to their house and home in MY car!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is only 15 miles or so away, but I drove and hubby rode with me. Now Little Miss wanted to get out and walk, which I was fully willing to allow, but hubby wouldn’t let me tell her she could. And for the record, the half a bottle of wine  I had was over a period of HOURS and it had been quite a while since I had my last drink and Hubby was in far worse condition! And if I want The Boy to know about it, I will tell him and I ain’t talking!

So Sunday was to be my day of rest, considering we didn’t get him until a little before 1am and Little Miss had issues with sleep (she didn’t want to go to sleep.) and I was up early because my stomach had issues with the pizza and wine from the night before. But Little Miss decided she was in the helpful mood and she straightened up the house and put in a load of towels I had to deal with. But all in all I was a bit lazy. Little Miss went to the church potluck dinner with mom and dad and hubby decided to go to look at a truck and get groceries. His boss knew where the truck was so we ended up back over there.

Have I mentioned the boss is a talker? I love him to death. (always have thought he was a sweetie. He was a year or two younger than me in school and I always thought he was so sweet and quiet! Boy was I wrong!) (Small note, I went to school with his wife in high school and every class we had, she always sit behind me, alphabetical order *Sl….St…. I always thought she was a sweet girl too.) Aneeway, I thought the men would never get back! I swear they went only a couple of miles and it took a couple of hours! But we finally made it to town to grab those few things we had to have, just in time for the MONSOON to hit!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, I found that the Dollar Tree, is one cold Muther fuckin place when you are soaked to the bone! And Hel-Mart………Like a freezer!!!!!!!!!! The Warehouse, wasn’t so bad, the monsoon passed and I dried a bit before we got there. But my leg decided it had a mind of its own. Ever heard Larry the Cable Guy talk about the people you see in the Wal-Mart at 3 in the morning? Well, I was one of them! Either my toe was dragging the ground when I moved my foot forward or my leg would swing out to the side and around (like a half circle). Which made my hips kinda look like I had a hitch in them and I looked and felt like a complete moron! People were staring and I wanted to hide behind the shelving! But I survived the whole ordeal and made it home in one piece.

Hubby decided to go ahead and haul of the load of logs he had on and I was going to play around on Facebook. The phone rang and it was Little Miss, seems that instead of getting home around 8:30 like they thought they would, they got home at 7:15 and she was wondering where the hell we were! (We got home about 8pm, so much for a quick run for groceries, we left at 2:30!) So I got to drive my car AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

So far this morning, my walking is better, still a bit down, but surviving as usual. I do have to wash a couple of loads today and clean up this pigsty of a house. And of course I must go harvest my stuff at Farm Town, because you know I am working toward buying me a house over there and 70,000 bucks means you have to harvest a bunch of watermelons and sunflowers! And then there is Vampire Wars and Mafia Wars and some infernal Pirate game. Damn Melody!!!!! *I would link to her, but damn if I can find the link right now, NEED MORE COFFEE!!!!!!!!!* She hooks me on these games and then I just don’t accomplish anything! But I love her aneeway!!!!! *Hugs!* So until next time………….

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who needs alone time?

Well, I do dammit! Will I ever get it? It ain’t looking good! Little Miss decided that she would be staying at Grandma’s for 2 nights. Not for consecutive nights, no that would be too simple, but Wednesday night and come home on Thursday at some  point and go back for Friday night. You know she wants to give Grandma a break. Where is my break? Just asking. OK, my break is when she is at Grandma’s I know, but…..

So aneeway, I got all excited. I would actually have the house all to myself for all day! I could listen to my tunes, with both ear thingies in, so that I actually get the stereo effect I am suppose to get. I could play games on the computer, without someone sitting on the arm of the chair telling me my next move, or hell just taking over the game, because really I have no talent when it comes to games and must be banned from ever playing them without skills. I could surf the Internet without anyone wanting to know why I was looking at that, wondering why I am looking at such stupid sites, asking when exactly I will be done.

Clean at my own pace. Vacuum without anyone wondering when I will be turning off the noisy thing. Dust the things I never dust, without anyone asking why bother. Dig out closets or drawers without constant interruption.

Eat oh, glory be, eat without having to fix for someone else first. Or going to get what my mouth has been watering for only to find someone else has already eaten it! Drink without someone sharing my drink. Eat the last cookie without the stares making me  feel guilty.

You know all those things that I could do before children!!!! I never figured on getting to do it all, not even half of it. What I really was looking forward to was the eating, music and computer time. These I do all at one time.

So yesterday afternoon, my dad comes and gets Little Miss. Hubby is at home, but in a relatively good mood. I started cooking supper and decided to lay down for a minute. BIG mistake. When I went to get up, I somehow twisted and raised and something went pop and now I am damn near immobile! Wonder-fucking-ful!!!! *Please excuse my “french”* It hurts to breathe let alone move. My legs are now the size of huge trees and they weigh damn near as much! Or at least that is how they feel, they look the same as always. Even turning my head somehow pulls on my back and sends a “OH. MOTHER. FUCKING. SHIT!!!!!” pain through me that will not let up!

Hubby, I must give him credit. Not much but a little. He felt bad for me, he helped met to the couch, he finished up supper, he brought me a plate and a glass of tea. Then he fuckin went outside!!!! Left me with the damn crackhead dog who wanted to go out with him and she commenced to whine, beg, whimper, run and, oh yes, jump in my lap! Once he came in…..he piled up the dishes and then got on the computer! Dinner dishes, still sitting on the counter. I will give him a bit more credit. He cooks faster than I do, makes a bigger mess too. I was cooking breakfast for supper (I love this concept. Quick, easy and limited mess. When I do it.) Now when I cook bacon, it seems to take FOREVER! I apparently cook it over the heat that comes off a lightening bugs ass! (No matter what the knob says) He cooks everything on HIGH! I admit the bacon was done in mere seconds, but the amount of bacon grease on the stove top, wall and counter will take years to scrape off. But, he did help me out.

Aneeway, I thought to myself……”Self, you will still have the house to yourself tomorrow and even though you are down, nothing is comfortable, you can still get in the computer chair and have a day on the Internet! SCORE one for me! You may be in pain, but you will still have your peace and quiet.” Bonus……since hubby felt so bad that I hurt so much (I had tears!!!! I usually just scream and cuss a lot, this time I cried!!!!!!) he gave me the bed. He slept on the couch. Good Man! A whole bed to myself! No elbows, no knees, no snoring, no grumbling.

So I woke up this morning, worse than when I went to bed, but so excited that I had the house to myself, then I heard the knock on the door. SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! It was hubby coming by to check on me, sweet! But I didn’t have to answer the door, NO, The Boy did!!!!! Oh holy HELL!!!! That’s right….No Little Miss, no Hubby, but The Boy wasn’t loafering today!!!!! He finally left and what did I hear? Yes, Bug was pulling up in the yard!!!!! Who the FUCK did I piss off?????? I love Bug and she can visit whenever she wants to but for all that is holy in the world, I just want a little time ALONE!!!!! So now she is gone and I fully expect Little Miss or MIL to come in any minute!!!!! Because I have apparently pissed off the powers that be and they are going to make me pay dearly, in the form  of my sanity!!!!! OK, I am at this very second alone and I am going to go and get the bacon and muffin that was left from last nights supper and then play a bit on the computer! I swear if I open that fridge and that bacon and muffin are gone……..Heads are going to ROLL!!!! Until next time…………….

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Edit…..The bacon and muffins were right where hubby hid them for me. Yes we must hide food here if we really want to eat it ourselves! But The Boy ran off with my ear thingies!!!!!! I know why animals eat their young!!!!

Not a religious post, I swear!

I read a book. Well, actually I have been reading many books, but this one really caught my attention.

Years ago I used to watch Sylvai Browne every time she came on Montel Williams. She absolutely amazed me. Not just her predictions, but her outlook on life and spirituality. I always said, if I ever ran up on one  of her books, I would get it and read it. Of course I wasn’t going to give 20 some bucks for a book, I am cheap that way, but I looked at yard sales, flea markets and such. Wouldn’t you know, living in the bible belt, people just don’t read (or at least admit to reading) such kind of books. Graphic romance novels you can find at the preacher’s yard sale, but a book slightly left of, what is taught in the Bible, OH NO!

But I was in one of those stores that buy out stores that are closing and I was looking through the book section while hubby was looking at tools and there was one of her books. (Now I admit I have never found a book that would interest me there before. Most of them are travel books (sights to see in Bangladesh or some other such nonsense) or cookbooks (The fine art of Sushi, using that poison fish. Yeah, I need to know how to do that.) (OK, I just figured out why these places went out of business.)) Aneeway……..There it was, sitting on top of a pile of romance novels, cheap (2 bucks) and I thought, “I will be damned! I have looked for her books for years and couldn’t find one. It must be fate screaming at me!” So I tucked it under my arm and only informed hubby that I had found a book (he absolutely thinks she is a fraud and can’t believe I would watch her. I told him it was entertainment, he didn’t believe me. ASS!)

So I came home and while dearest darling (that would be hubby) was on the computer, I started reading. The name is “Exploring the levels of creation”. The lady makes a lot of sense. OK, I admit she has some beliefs, that I feel, may be a bit over the edge, but those beliefs aren’t bad. In fact, I really like a lot of her ideas. Go ahead call me a nut! But really, the idea that fairies, elves, gnomes, unicorns and such actually exist, on a different level from us, is a wonderful thought. The idea that they could exist to help forest animals and such is sweet. To help children. Wonderful. ( And I am really beginning to believe that I have pissed off some deva. I mean please…the dishwasher, the dryer and now one of the eyes on my stove! What is next? Don’t answer that.) 

She also believes that the Old Testament was wrote by men and that it was to scare people into what the church wanted of them. In her words (well, not her exact words, because I would never find the a quote that would fit exactly, but close enough.) God is made to be a vengeful God in the OT and she doesn’t believe that He is. She states she just doesn’t see Him turning someone in to a pillar of salt, just because they looked back when He said not to. That is one example. And because he is all knowing, he wouldn’t have to ask Adam and Eve why they were hiding (after they ate the forbidden fruit).

She also believes in reincarnation. But not the way I always believed it would be if we were reincarnated. Reincarnation is one of those things I never really made my mind up on. But I always thought, if we were reincarnated, it was sorta a Karma type thing. Live a good life, have a better next life. Live a terrible life, have an awful next life. (You know, beat animals in this life, be an animal in the next life.) ( Me and hubby often joke that we had to be rich and selfish in our last life and that is why we have such money problems now.) But she believes that we are reincarnated to learn knowledge to perfect our souls. And that we decide how many times we reincarnate.

She also believes that there are other places in the universe for us to live (Not as in Mars, but other solar systems.) She says Earth is the only Hell, that there is no devil or actual Hell. Evil was created by free will, not by the devil. She says there are dark souls and they have hierarchy of there own, but no horned, pitch fork welding, red little man running the show.

In this book she talks about the different levels of several things.

The 7 levels of the underworld (this is where fairies and such would live, some of the levels can and do enter our level.)  These levels, according to her are run by Lilith, someone close to Mother God, like a friend of Mother God, I guess. She helps animals and children. Nice thought, huh? Kinda take some of the pressure off God. heh!

The 7 levels of life on Earth. You know them already…birth, childhood, adult, old age,  etc. She goes in to detail of what you learn in each level. Makes you better understand the teen years.

The seven levels of the Other Side. More like the different areas of  Heaven you can “live”  and what you would learn in each area.

And then she talks about churches (She has one herself). Mostly that a lot (but not all) of them have gotten more into having bigger congregations, which means more money, which means bigger churches. Kinda put preaching God’s words on the back burner. A lot of it makes a lot of sense. Politics have no place in church but a lot of them are more politics than preaching. Or they are around here. A whole church split down the middle and friends became enemies over something one man did. Either you supported him or you were against those who did. He started a new church and has since past on, but one man was able to tear apart a church that was together for generations.

I don’t buy into all that she believes, but some of it is quite interesting and if it is true, is a nice thing. I really like the idea, that we choose our own path in life by what we need and want to learn. Not that God is punishing us for something. Makes having a hard life, a little easier to bear. Think about it…..Choosing to have a hard life so that you can learn or show people tolerance versus having a hard life because you did something wrong in life.

Aneeway……..If you get a chance, it is an interesting book. Like I said I don’t buy all of it and what I have considered as possible, it is with some resistance. I wasn’t raised in church, I was taught the Bible, right and wrong and such. My grandmother was Catholic, until she married outside of the church, my granddaddy on that side was Pentecostal or Episcopalian. My mom was raised Baptist (Hellfire and brimstone Baptist). My dad was raised, I guess a bit of a mix of Pentecostal (or Episcopalian) and Catholic. (Him and mom are both in a Methodist church now.) I have over the years had a great interest in learning about the Catholic church. Just to understand a bit of my grandma’s raising.

I was taught tolerance and to have an open mind to other beliefs. I think that may be why I am drawn to learning about spiritual type things. And have an interest in other types of things like psychics and such. A lot of religions have aspects that I find intriguing, but nothing I would follow  as far as a religion. More of an interest in learning about different beliefs. Even like Wicca has aspects that are interesting, but aspects that would scare the hell out of me. heh! Kinda like Voodoo, interesting stuff but scary as hell! heh!! Maybe I just have an interest in learning. I am set in my beliefs, but I like to add to my knowledge. I guess I am a mutt as far as what religion I am.  So now that you believe I have completely slipped off my rocker and my guinea pig has fallen off its wheel, I will go. (Unbelievable, I thought this would be a short post.) Until next time………….

HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANK YOU FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!
