Is this April?

What's up with the weather?  It feels like winter here.  This sucks,  it is freezing here.  My birthday is in a few days and if it snows I am going to be pissed.  Not funny, it has snowed several times on my birthday.  Oh well, there are worse things than that.  Have a happy day!!!!

Cat has a tag along

My morning started out as it usually does.  Stumble to the kitchen to make coffee and breakfast for the man of the house.  Enjoy a cup of coffee and watch some morning news.  Then as the man of the house starts on his way to the shower, he really steps in it!  I mean shit!  The cat must have had some difficulty with the pinching of f stage of her morning routine, and had a tag along that seem to drop off a little at a time as she walked through the house.  The man of the house did not find the humor in this, at all.  I thought it was kinda funny, until I realized that the cat still had that tag along just taggging on, and I had to be the one to remove it!  Meow!! she did not appreciate that at all, either did I.  Needless to say my o.c.d. kicked into over drive and I went on this crazy cleaning spree.  I feel much calmer now, ahhh!

Sentimental about Mother's Day

Raising kids can be a real hard job but, releasing them into the wild or what I mean is watching them pack up their stuff and move across town or get on a plane and move across the country is for me the most difficult part of raising kids.  With this pain also comes pride, just knowing we must have done something right, that they have grown into strong, well rounded adults.  The thing is, we still have two more to go.  Remember, just because their out of your sight that worried feeling for them never goes away.  No matter how all five kids came into my life, I love them all!!!

Here Comes The Sun

It's a nice warm sunny day! I want to be a cat so I can lay in the sun by the front door. That's all I want.

Out of Wine

My dog is on steroids, my cat is over weight, my husband is a drummer, my kids have me wrapped around their finger and I'm out of wine.  HELP!!!

Childcare: How to get your children to go to bed.

Getting kids to go to bed at night is a common problem.  I have a great solution, for this situation.  When the kids are trying to get all comfy and cozy next to you on the couch, just put in a real scary, black and white horror film.  This usually freaks them out enough to go to bed on their own or the black and white on the t.v. put's them into a state of unconsciousness.  This is my next step this evening, goodnight.

I Made Up A Word Today

Befront:  (Bee-Front)

     1.  In front of or before.

     Nitro don't walk befront of me.

After a bunch of organizing, I was moving things around into different rooms.  I decided to carry a small bookshelf down the stairs to the office.  It was very painful.  And heavy.  The dog likes to walk beside me down the steps.  So as usual I was trying to explain to him in English that he could not walk befront of me or I would fall down the steps.  He obviously didn't care because he kept going.  We did make it down the stairs and then he sits out of my way.  Then he sat to the side of me and watched me put the books on the bookshelf.  That was about all that we did.  That was the excitement of the day.
