Snow, Sleet, Slush, and Other "S" Words

Let's add stinky, sucky, and sooooooo cold! How are those for descriptions of this beautiful weather we're experiencing? You know what the worst part is? Aside from scrambling to find last minute child care for your kids that should be on the bus. And aside from a nasty wet/sticky/rat's nest hair day. It's trying to drive carefully, and having the sugar scared out of you when you slam into one of those incredibly ginormous potholes. I'm always afraid I'm going to drive into one and it will cave into a big sinkhole. You'll be hearing about me on the 6 0'clock news. Witnesses will say "It was only a small pothole, and then whoosh - she was gone!" Everyone up here will think I'm dead and buried, but in reality, I'll have discovered a whole new world below, creatures never before seen. Geez, I'm starting to sound like Lopez! When I start talking about unicorns, you know it's time to medicate me.

Be safe today!

This Is My Day

So I'm sitting here across from Dick McDonough as he does his show. I'm trying to get some work done and I can hear the TV in the background. I just have to say, Elizabeth Hasselbeck is annoying as heck. Is it me or does she take every opportunity she can to blah-blah-blah about politics and breast milk! Don't get me wrong - I did the same for my kids, but I never talked about it every day like she does; calling herself a milk machine, saying her boobs are so big they're resting on the table, joking that she filled the audience mugs with pumped milk - eeeewwww! I hope that comes to an end real soon! Well, enough about that.

My daughter has the day off from school, so of course, she's on the computer playing webkinz. She even gave me one of hers so I could have a webkinz account. She says it's because I love playing on it so much, but I know it's because she wants me to send her gifts everyday. Truthfully, I'm addicted now. I can't wait to go gem mining, spin the wheel of wow, and go to the employment office. For some reason, I still can't do Dr. Quack's assistant - I stink at it! And, if can you believe it, I get some of the questions wrong at Quizzy's Corner. So, never mind "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader" because I'm barely smarter than a 5-year-old!

On that note, I must go find the remote and mute this silly blond twit now (Elizabeth - not me!).

Bye for now!

Where Am I?

Hi Everybody! It's good to be back, although some things feel foreign after 10 days off! The first thing I noticed was that someone switched my chair. You know how you just get a feel for what's yours? I knew the chair I had was not mine! I got mine back though.

Anyway, my vacation was busy with Christmas stuff - the whole wrapping, unwrapping, opening packages, organizing, re-organizing, returning, returning, re-returning, re-opening packages, etc. But as long as my children are happy, that's all that matters, right? I still can't believe Chris thinks a parent would sell Hannah Montana tickets for the cash instead of taking their kids! Isn't the life-long memory (and pictures to prove it in case they forget) worth more? Well, anyway, my daughter is loving the Eye-clops she got, and once I get her up and running on Be-Bratz, she should be golden until her birthday. All I can say is, thank goodness it's over! Bye for now!
