What not to wear?

I need a personal shopper. I'm tired of looking messy/frumpy. Over half of my clothes right now are 2-3 sizes to big for me... yet I still wear them. Why? Because I hate clothes shopping! Hate it. I have no clue what to buy, what looks good on me. *sigh*

DD and I are going shopping this weekend. I plan on atleast getting a new pair of jeans that fit. But I'm askeered that, that is ALL I will come home with. I always start out with good intentions and then get frustrated trying things on.

Can anybody help me? Or am I beyond help.


Bravie and darcidoe do NOT need to answer that last question.

Boooooooo Cookies!

I have Boo Cookies! *hops around*

I also got my OT SS package yesterday, yesterday was a good day.


Is everyone ready for Christmas? I have some more baking tonight to do. I want to bring some goodies up north with me this weekend. I haven't wrapped any of DD's presents yet. Need to do that some day.

We're supposed to be getting a major storm tonight/tomorrow. We'll see. They haven't been right lately. If they're right on this one they said 6-12 inches. Ack!

For Darcidoe, a pic of the snow she got last night.

Did you hear that?

I think I heard some cookies crumbling!!!

Let's hear it? Who's got cookies!?!?!?!

I plan on doing my baking this weekend.

My new crush

or maybe it's love? I want Edward.

I will admit, at first I was like "he doesn't look like I imagined Edward". But by the middle of the movie, he was Edward.

Cookie Emails!

New update, everyone should have their recipients now. Thanks everyone!

Some have gone out, some can't yet. HD! I need your new address. Tummy? I can't find your email address. *smooch*

Boo will be happy to know that we ended up with an even 10 particpants. Yay!!!! Welcome Sharnina!

So now it's your turn to do the work. Get baking!!! Be sure to send your cookies out so they can be enjoyed during the hectic holiday season. Holiday season starts on Thanksgiving and goes through New Years.

Happy baking!

Carppppp!

Tummy, I hope you saved the SS addresses and lists somewhere. We lost the last 5 months on Blows. I don't have my SS's address anymore! PM's are gone for that time too.

Oh, OT is back up. Carry on.

Or not, Webby posted a message to not post there. Hopefully he's trying to restore the last 5 months. *crosses fingers*

*SQQQQEEEEEALLLLLLLLL*

Yes, I did just squeal like a 13 year old. I saw my first Twilight promo last night. DD and I are extremely excited to go see this. We just finished Eclipse (book 3) and I was ordered to pick up book 4 on my way home tonight. LOL I probably will. I want to read it as bad as she does.

If you haven't signed up yet and want to share cookies with others, please sign up in the post below. I'll be drawing names Friday!

OK Fine!!!! Cookie sign up

Bumping back up! I'll be drawing names on Friday.


Boo wants cookies. Boo gets what Boo wants, especially when she's drinking wild grape.

So here it is. If you want to participate in the Blogger 2008 Cookie Exchange for the holidays sign up here. I'll draw names Monday!

I think we did 1 dozen cookies each and you send to two people right? So everyone should receive 2 dozen cookies.

Requests, allergies and such should be put in your comment here when you sign up.


Is this too early? I can do the drawing in a couple weeks if it's too early. Oh and if I don't have your address, please email it to me for me to give to your sender.

Batgirl!

DBF is not good at taking pics. *pout*

Dead Prom Queen

Please excuse the sweatshirt and backpack, I had to block her way this morning to get a pic. She had to run to catch the bus.

How did she die, you ask?

A Vampire got her. She has teeth she can stick in too, if she's feeling feisty.

Happy Halloween!!!

Yep it's true

We had a splenderific weekend!!!!

This was my first time with Boo and well.... she definately popped my cherry. (that may or may not be code) *snort* She sure did bring sexy back!


*big smooches to Carey, Boo and Kimmer*

Beetlejuice!

During warm days of late winter and early spring, overwintering beetles in a wall space may become active. In their search for an exit, they may enter the home's living areas and become a nuisance. Warmer temperatures or lighting in the living areas may attract these active beetles as they search for an exit.

*giggle*

Greatest Mom Ever!

Yay, that would be me.

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

No I'm not 40 yet!!! LOL

I'm off work today and hope to relax the day away.

10 Trappers vs 1 Skunk

*snort* Nice title, eh?

This past weekend, DBF and I were up in the UP at another trapper's convention. It was cold! Oh so cold. The only time I was warm was when I went running Saturday morning and Saturday night when I practically sat on top of the bonfire. Which brings me to my story... Saturday night there we all sat around the bonfire. The trapping stories were flying around (and they're just as bad as fishermen LOL). I had Morgan with me, without a leash and I was pretty mellow with my Capt and Coke. Suddenly we hear a bunch of noise by one of the campers, something getting into the garbage. Everyone's first thought was Morgan, but no she was happily snoring away on my lap. It was a skunk! So this is what happens when you get a bunch of trappers against one little skunk. They all look at each other. *snort* Then they tried to "shoo" the skunk away. LMAO Finally one brave soul grabbed a can of wasp spray and went in to do battle. He prevailed, the skunk waddled off and we women all laughed at all the great trappers trying to shoo away a skunk.

Her First School Dance!

*thud*

Argggggg

*thud*

Ok, so DD's first school dance is tomorrow night. Help me come up with some "rules". You know. All those things you did at the school dances when you were bad bad bad kids. Yes I'm talking to you.

1. No close dancing.
2. No kissing.
3. No sneaking off somewhere just to "talk".
4. No letting some smelly little boy put his hands on your aras while slow dancing.
5.

Help! I know there's more. I'm old and tired today, can't think.

Darcy!!!!!!!!!!

Guess what I found last night? LOL That shirt that Dad gave me. I was wrong it didn't explode, I just thought it did because I haven't been able to fit in it in awhile. It's also not t-shirt material, more like polyester.

Oh and in case some of you were confused. Darcidoe is my sis. Everyone say "hi"!

Do you know what time it is?

It's Opening Season Weekend!!!! Woohooo yesterday was awesome. Football!!! Rah! Rah! Rah!

Course the best part is tonight when my Packers take the field for their first game. *crosses fingers* I hope Aaron does ok.

LMAO Did any of you watch the Lions game? *snort* Gawd they are awful! They made Atlanta's rookie QB look like a 10 year veteran. Their defense still sucks hairy nasty donkey balls. Doesn't TO realize we're all over him? His endzone celebration was *yawn* boring and predictable. Get a real life TO! OMH! Brady out for the season!?!?!?! That's huge!

*big grin* I love Football Season. My only dilemna this year is figuring out who's jersey I need to buy. *sniff* I can't very well wear one of my two #4's, now can I?

My 7th Grader

First day of Middle School!

Who broke OT?

Was it you? YOU!!?!?

I think I'll blame Icey. Why the heck is he so into US politics all of a sudden?

Oh well, I hope you all take this down time to pick up The Other Side Of The Bridge and join the book discussion.

I've become overrun

by CUCUMBERS!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I pick a bag full everyday. I've been giving them away to everyone. The tomatoes are also starting to ripen. Which reminds me I still have to find a canner.

So anyone want some cucumbers? Do you have a recipe for them?

Oh and yes I know. *rolls eyes* Cucumbers are really a fruit. They also don't end in a vowel. *giggle*

I'm intrigued- A Poll

This poll was posted on a message board that I frequent, not not OT and yes I'm two timing you all.

How do you put on your bra? Are you a front clasper and then swing it around, or do you put it on and fasten in back?

Greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen Acres

First, I forgot to take pics at the pool party. Sorry. So you'll just have to enjoy pics of my flowers and veggie garden.

I have lots of green tomatoes, the pepper plants have blooms and the spaghetti squash has fruit on it!!!! So excited.

Here's Farmer P's chickens, well some of his chickens. We have quite a few now. I just mainly took pics of the two big roosters. Aren't they pretty? We're getting 2-3 eggs a day now. Can't wait for the young hens to start laying. I'll have to sell the eggs then. *grin*

FINE!!! My Summer Concerts

I went to two outdoor concerts this past weekend. The end.




LOL Ok fine, I'll type more.

Friday night we went to see Luke Bryan and Dierks Bentley. mmmmmmm Dierks, he's yummy. It rained! Why does it always rain on the country nights at Summer Cel? DD and I hid out in the portapotties, and DBF stood guard in the rain. What? He had my umbrella. Finally the rain left and the concert started. Both Luke and Dierks were good, Dierks was great though. He puts on a really really good concert.

Monday night we went to see Julianne Hough, James Otto and Miranda Lambert. Some of you will know the first name, she's a professional dancer and has been on Dancing With The Stars. She also has a country CD out. She was pretty iffy, her voice doesn't have any power and she didn't have enough songs to fill a set. James Otto's ego was wayyyyy toooooo big for his britches. Miranda rocked! Lordy she has a voice. Course I sing Gun Powder and Lead just like her. *grin*

Where's my camera?

Does anyone remember where I left my digital camera? I swear I set it down right there! Now it's gone. *pout* I was gonna take some pics of DD and my veggie garden.


Life is busy with baseball games, working in the yard and helping DBF's Dad move on. He's planned this huge 4th of July party. Bought cases of pop already and everything! I asked DBF last night, who's supposed to be at this party. He said probably just us! I told Ayla to invite her friends over for the pool party, so there will be more people. Anyone else want to come to the 4th of July pool party?

Flowers

My beautiful big basket.


My flower garden, the rock garden next to it needs work.

My wire wagon with some petunias and a mosquito plant.

We have two of these huge hostas in front of the house.

A couple of PSA's

#1- Hug your loved ones everytime you see them and let them know you love them.

#2- Do you have your living will in order? Why not?

Why am I wearing heels?

What the heck was I thinking? Oh well, maybe they'll help tone my legs up. *grin*

Here's today's Mad Gab phrase.

Here's this week's Mad Gab phrase.



Bee Old Yellow Gene End Neigh



Have fun! And if you feel the need you can donate all your cans here and I'll turn them into silver..... or something like that.

Favre trivia

When rookie Matt Leinart started for the Cardinals in Week 5 of 2006, he became the 196th other quarterback in the NFL to start in the same time frame that Brett Favre was the Packers' sole starting quarterback.


*sigh* Isn't he the greatest?

Ow ow ow ow ow

What the heck was I thinking? Apparently the 2 miles I ran at Girls On The Run practice wasn't enough. Came home and rototilled our 36 x 30 garden. ow ow ow ow my arms, shoulders, back and legs are soooooo sore.


So what veggies are easy to store for winter? I want stuff that I can either can easily or freeze right off the vine.

Time for sandals Mad Gab

Wooohooooo it's finally nice outside! I don't have socks on today. *wiggles toes*

My life has been boring lately, hence all the Mad Gab stuff. Maybe my life will pick up with summer.... *snort* yeah right.

Here's today's phrase...

Fin Slump Hearty

Have a great tuesday and I hope the weather is great where you are too!

Happy Mad Gab Tax Day!!!!

Do you have your taxes done? Are you anxiously awaiting your stimulus payment? I plan on using part of mine to redo the kitchen, it needs it bad.

Here's today's Mad Gab phrase, remember it's what you hear not what you see. Oh and to all of you who say you can't get these. Neither can my Mom *waves to Mom*.

Putty Stale Beet Weenies Legs


Have fun! As promised, I did an easier one this week.

Gab your Mad Day

I'm running out of titles. So... how's everyone? *giggle* Notice I didn't have a weekly rant last week? Maybe she really did leave, or maybe she ran out of lies.



Today's phrase is...



See Row When Known



Have fun. As always remember it's not what you see it's what you hear.

Mad Gab *hack* *hack*

Yeesh, stupid fangers. Or maybe it's my brain, I'm still hung over from the Nyquil I think.

This week's Mad Gab phrase is....

Abe He Yelled He

Remember it's not what you see, it's what you hear. Have fun!

Someone please help!!!!

Please help me!!!! Tie my hands together so I can't type. Please?

Have you ever noticed that healthy food is more expensive then bad for you food? Ever notice how healthy food needs to be kept cold, like in a fridge unlike most bad for you food?

Where am I going with this you ask? Same place as usual. I don't believe a word that she types. Not.one.single.word.

I do agree with her tips, but how? Just how? Right now? Do those mini-fridges have a car charger?

Oh and I thought her weightloss came from stress and abuse and caused her to lose her job?

Mad Gab Snowday!

*sigh* Yes, we're supposed to get snow again today. Soooo tired of winter, I thought it was supposed to be spring.

Today's Mad Gab Phrase is....

Hike Up Hill Comb Egg Sicko

Have a good twosday!

Stupid me *head thump*

I made all those Easter cards and then forgot to mail them. *sigh* If I mail them tomorrow they'll all be late. Should I mail them anyway?

I'm sore today, why oh why did I sign up to be a Girls on the Run coach? Especially since I don't like kids *grin*, especially tween girls. I wasn't fond of them when I was one and it's not any better now. Help me come up with something to say to this ONE girl that at every practice says loudly "I smell armpits, it smells like armpits." *sigh* What I really really want to do is take her out into the hall and shake her and tell her to stop being a nasty little snot girl, and then kick her off the team. How about "(insert name), body odor is a very natural thing; especially when you exercise as we are doing. Everybody sweats and everybody realizes their own body odor, what are you trying to say when you say that? To me it seems like you're either trying to be funny or you're trying to make other girls uncomfortable. Either way, neither is part of the promises we learned last week. Please be a little more respectful to everyone." How's that?

Perfect Mad Gab Day!

Why? Why, because I had to go to the dentist this morning. My right cheek is still numb and I'm spilling chai all down my chin and talking funny.

Here's this week's phrase! Even if you've won before you can play, you just can't be the weiner for this week! Remember weiner's can get mail. *giggle*

Aid Are Coarse

Have fun and everyone have a day. Yes that's right, have a day. :)

Pen Jitters

Remember weiners can get mail, special mail. *evil giggle*

I'm just sitting here...

petting my Rat, Morgan and ..... blah blah blah. I'm sorry but really? I don't get the stories, I really don't. The problem? They're out there, rambling some and seem to have a dejavu quality to them. Like I remember them from a movie or a book. Maybe I am remembering them from a book? Or maybe, she is for real.

*shakes head*

Sunny Twosday MadGab

Wow! What is that bright yellow thing in the sky? *squints*

Wad Juice Hey

Have fun!

Garbage Poll

Okkkkk say you lost your job and home... no really, you did.

Would you rather go to DSS and get some help (I mean after all.... why else were you paying taxes all those years) or would you go dumpster diving for pop cans?

I know we shouldn't judge others without walking in their shoes.... but I need to believe the story of those shoes first. And frankly? I don't believe one capital letter of it. (or even small one)

Mad Gab Twosday!

Are you ready for another phrase? Remember, it's not what you see it's what you hear.


Parrot Own Elk Lip Hearse

Yes Frodis you can play, but you can't win this week. (hopefully you got some mail?)

I'll be out for awhile this morning, so I'll be back this afternoon to see if I have a weiner!

Mad Gab Tuesday

Anyone know how to play Mad Gab? No? Well you're all going to learn. Today is Mad Gab Tuesday, I'm going to put a Mad Gab phrase down here and you get to guess what the phrase really is. Now in the game of Mad Gab it's not what you see it's what you hear. So everyone put on your good listening ears and tell me what this phrase really is...


Awe Haze Could Furl Half.

Oops, forgot to say... the weiner will get something in the mail from me. (that is if I have the weiner's address)

Warning- I have a weiner, so the answer is in the comments. Don't look unless you give up. *grin*

I AM the QB guru!

I had a client ask me to create an import template for them and they only had a budget of two hours of my time. *blows on knuckles* I finished it in an hour last night. *big grin*

You may all bow down to me now. *giggle*

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

New Girl

Why hasn't she gotten a clue that no I don't want any of her candy, cheese, whip cream, nuts.....?

It's been three weeks.

Someone please explain to her that I'm not a person that likes perky people. Please?
