The Small things that matter...............

Woke up this morning, barely. Sooooo tired. Never staying out until 1100 on a work night again. No, not partying-babysitting. Pam called me around 8, asking if I could go to her house and help the babysitter. The girl was in a panic, b/c Tyler wouldn't stop crying. I love Tyler, but when that kid losses his mind.......watch out!!! When I got there, she had the kids outside, and they were all fine.....sort of. I felt bad for the girl. She was only 13, and had no idea what she was doing. She paled at the thought of changing a diaper.

At any rate, I stayed until Pam, Rob, Kim and Keith got home. Lucky bastards; not having to work the next day. Poor me. Up at quarter after 5. Well, I actually slept in-a whopping 15 minuets. Did it make a difference? Hell no. I am a complete Zombie today. Wonderful. I wont even be in bed all that early tonight, either. Baseball tonight. Thankfully, it is not a late game. 6:15pm. Home by 8......let Paris out, and straight to bed!

I woke up James this morning. as I do every morning. Usually a nice back rub, or I lay on top if him, until her throws me off. In my more strange moods, I put the cat on him, and lately, I put Paris on his back and let her go to town on licking his face. Ain't I great?

So, I woke him up and asked him if he could get up a bit early to let Paris out a little longer then he usually does (seeing as how we lost 15 min already). No worries. I went and finished getting ready, and then snuggled down on the bed in my hubbies arms. He is truly wonderful. I was being held close, and in total relaxation mode. ( I could have stayed there all day) Just as I was about to get up and get out the door, James speaks....."You are so beautiful". Just that, just out of the blue. It didn't wake me up at all, but damn, did it ever make me feel good.

After 2 years of marriage, he still makes me tingle inside, and feel amazing. I often wonder how people can spend their lives with the wrong person, and always seem envious of us who are with the "right" person. Thankfully, I found my "Mr. Right", and just at the right time.

Love you, babe.........

Rant, Anniversary, Facebook and more crap....

I am really starting to miss my blogging! Note to self-blog more. It actually makes me feel better. Plus, I have documented proof of my craziness.

Yes, I have said it a million times, and I will one day do it. I need to compose my letter to People magazine, and submit the pictures with it. Hopefully, they will accept me, and my next picture posting of myself will be the cover of the magazine!

The question going around right now (and yes, I am guilty of saying it) how are you NOT on Facebook? lol. I happen to love facebook. Crackbook. Yes, more appropriate. The guy who designed Crackbook is a now a multimillionaire who started it for an Ivy League school. The bastard is making money off my addiction. Well, I can't really call it an addiction. I can live a few days without going on. I check it like I check my email. When I feel like it. It is amazing the people that you find, and that find you. James has had quite a few old friends find him, as have I. I'm not on Nexopia or my space...I think making up a name is a little silly. Besides, how do you find anyone? Crackbook is alot easier for that.


How crazy can I really be? I was talking to one of my co-workers, Amy, about craziness. Amy just got back from her maternity leave and suffers from Baby Brain. To be 100% honest, I don't remember how we got on the subject of craziness. Maybe she witnessed one of my outbursts and rage towards the phone

I just suffer from I-hate-stupid-people crazy.

It gets bad on Tuesday and worse on Wednesday....
Monday: not bad-just had time off
Tuesday: grrr stoopid people
Wednesday: I WANT TO REACH THRU THEN PHONE AND KILL SOMEONE!
Thursday: defeat. realizing i can no longer deal with stoopid people. Is it Friday yet?
Friday: Ahhhh. my fav day! Knowing i wont have to deal with stoopid people for 2 days relaxes me and makes me happy.......
See? The time line makes perfect sense! Wooo!
But in really--I never thought I would say this in my life: I HATE the phone. Parents with teenage daughters: if you kid is on the phone too much, get her a job as a receptionist. Problem solved. Over indulge, and the bad habit goes away. I understand why people who serve coffee all day want to scream when they see it at home. And why male gyno's tend to be single-or have a sexless marriage. lol

Happy annimaversarie to Sandy and Len!!!!!!! Ya old farts!

I love you both so much, and I hope you had a wonderful day.......

Am I done ranting? Never.....but for now........AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

And the phone rang 29 times while I was typing. That's right, I kept track. Now who's crazy??

Puppy Tails!!!

Here are some pics of Paris and her "cousin" Sheeva. Thanks to Nik for the pics (and for the play date!)

Cutie! Nik put her in a drawer!

Paris ready to play!

Sheeva and Paris posing for the Camera!

Indroducing Paris!

What do you get when you cross an American Eskimo with a Chihuahua? An Ameskihauhau! The sweetest little bundle of fluffy cuteness you could ever imagine!

Our newest Family member is Paris!! As much as I despise Paris Hilton, i have to admit that the name suits her all to well. I went out and bought her a pink collar with "rhinestones" on it. She is quite bright, and yet, very dumb! Viper has had to put her in her place quite a few times! Oh, well! best way for her to learn who is the boss, and what is right and wrong.

I will post more pics later this week...

~Cheers!

Ringing Those Horseshoes

My husband has a horseshoe up his ass. He was hit my a fully loaded cement truck on his way home from work, on June 6th. All he got was a small cut on his arm. WHEW!!! The doctor fixed him up with a boo-boo sticker. My heart actually stopped beating when I got there. He called me at work told me what happened, and that he was okay. But, when I got there, and saw the Jeep before him....well, I thought my love had fibbed.....he didn't, and I was just happy to see that he really was ok. I love you, babe! Don't you EVER scare me like that again!!!!!!!

In this pic, you see the cement truck, and the half ton he was sandwiched in between.....

Our lil red Jeep is in the middle....

The Jeep after they pulled the cement truck out of the passenger seat!

Best Poem Ever!

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...

enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own, even if she never wants to or needs to...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...

something perfect to wear if the employer,

or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...

a youth she's content to leave behind....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...

a past juicy enough that she's looking forward toretelling it in her old age....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE .....

a set of screwdrivers,

a cordless drill,

and a black lace bra...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...

one friend who always makes her laugh...

and one who lets her cry...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....

a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...

eight matching plates,

wine glasses with stems,

and a recipe for a meal,

that will make her guests feel honored...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...

a feeling of control over her destiny...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

how to fall in love without losing herself..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

how to quit a job,

break up with a lover,

and confront a friend;

without ruining the friendship...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

when to try harder...

and WHEN TO WALK AWAY...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

that she can't change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

that her childhood may not have been perfect...

but its over...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

how to live alone...

even if she doesn't like it...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

whom she can trust,whom she can't,and why she shouldn't take it personally...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

where to go...

be it to her best friend's kitchen table...

or a charming inn in the woods...

when her soul needs soothing...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

what she can and can't accomplish in a day...

a month...

and a year...
