There will never be a New Year Eve like this one...I just saw that on TV. I was not going to write about tonight because the feelings are still to new, but I feel I need to. Today is December 31, the last day in 2005. I turned 42 today and I held my fathers hand and told him I loved him and kissed him good bye, for the last time. Not just for the year but forever. My father passed away tonight. I miss him already. Tomorrow will bring a new year and a new begining, but I will still miss him.

The day after!


Christmas this year was full of many surprises. Just being surrounded by family and friends is the greatest gift. This year I received a great Christmas surprise. Every year I take great care with my children's stocking. The stockings are one of the best memories my children have of Christmas. This year I hung 4 stockings. One for each of my 2 boys, one for my oldest son's girlfriend and of course one for me. Every year on Christmas morning the stockings are full and its the first thing my children open. Of course mine hangs empty. This year I woke up around 1am on Christmas morning, unable to sleep. So I went into the living room to make sure all was in place for the morning, and much to my surprise, My stocking was also full. The tears of joy started to fall and I knew that all was well. It touched my heart so much to find out that my oldest son and his girlfriend had snuck into my home late in the night and left me with this wonderful gift. I know Christmas is not all about gifts, and the love those children left me in that stocking filled my heart with so much joy.

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas!!

Apples & Wine

Apples and Wine

Women are like apples on trees.
The best ones are at the top of the tree.
Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt.
Instead, they sometimes take the apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy.
The apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who is brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.

Now Men....
Men are like a fine wine.
They begin as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the shit out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.

Have a super Tuesday!

My new Grandpuppy!



My new grandpuppy arrived last night! He is so cute.
This weekend has been nuts. I have been recovering from a major pulled muscle,(do not ask how) so I have not got much done. The muscle relaxers and pain meds make my brain stupid. I really hate that feeling. Thanks to the internet I was able to get most of my Christmas shopping done in my PJ'S!! Got to just love that. I'm working my my list of 101 things about me, but under the influence of drugs its kinda hard. I guess I should just post what I have and go from there.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Reindeer Facts


According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December. Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring.

Therefore, according to EVERY historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, EVERY single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl.

We should've known... ONLY women would be able to drag a fat-ass man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost.

Christmas Shopping!!

Its a total pain!! I took today off from work so I could shop all day. It really was not to busy. I'm glad I went on a weekday. I have been shopping all day! But I did pick up some really cute things at Victorias Secret....I got a gift card for my birthday so I treated myself......Even though my birthday is a couple of weeks off. I did get lots of shopping done today, thank God. Every year I tell myself not to wait until the last minute, but I never listen to myself. I did most of my shopping online so I just have a few more things to pick up and Im DONE!!!!! Then I have to wrap it all!!! Christmas is so much work!!

I also just found out I am getting a new grandpuppy, my son has promised no actual grandkids for awhile. So this week my new grandpuppy will fly into the airport, that must be really scary for a pup. He is an English Bulldog, my son has always wanted one so he and his girlfriend gave it to each other as a Christmas gift. I picked him up a book today about the care of this type of dog. I also picked up a copy of Post Secret. Its a blog that is so awesome if you have not checked it out you should. There is a link in my sidebar, head on over and check it out!! So anyway I can't wait to see him and I will post pictures when he gets here.

Hope you all had a great Monday!

Thank You!!!

Seldom do I get political on here but on this issue I firmly support our governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's decision not to grant Clemency to former Crips gang leader Stanley Tookie Williams. So woopie doo...The man wrote some books about staying out of gangs that he helped form and these gangs continue to kill. My question is where would he be now if he had not been convicted. Writing books to help kids? I think not!!! He had a right to a fair trial, which he got. He had the right to file God knows how many freaking appeals, as far as I am concerened he now has no rights.

Have a super Monday!!

Happy Birthday!!!

Today is my oldest son's Birthday. It so hard to believe its been 22 years.Thats right at 7:07pm I gave birth to a 9 pound 2 oz baby boy! It seems like just not to long ago he was just a baby. I guess he will always be my baby in my heart. I am very proud of him. Holy shit 22 years!!!!! That just can't be right. I'm still so young and youthful! No...Its right. Oh lord I'm getting old!! Not much I can do about it. I still feel young and I guess that's all that matters. 22 freaking years...I'm just not dealing with this well. I think beer & tequila will help. Yep that should do it!!!

Hope you all have a super Hump day!!!

Let there be light!!


Lessons I learned today....

1. Short people should always use a ladder when checking the fuse box that is to high for you to reach.

2. You should always wear your glasses when checking the fuse box so that you can see the blown fuse.

3. Blown fuses are easy to see if you have are standing on a ladder with your glasses on!!

What's Next?!

The weekend went fast as usual. I did manage to get some Christmas shopping done and some of the decorations are up and I got my oldest son's birthday present, picking out the card was rough..Yes I'm the women in the card section crying...why do they have to make them so emotional? I'm still searching for my mind which seems to be on permanent vacation.....LOL...... I'm beginning to think I lost it along time ago and have just now realized its gone. As I was getting ready for work this morning and doing my usual talking to GOD asking for guidance and asking that question I always do " When are you going to be done testing me?" Seriously I think I have been through enough and its time GOD let up on me a little. I head into my bedroom as the power goes off!! I panic thinking my hair is still wet and now what am I gonna do?, about that time my son points out that its just my room and we have power in the rest of the house. So I throw on my robe and out in the freezing cold I head to the breaker box. It all looks good there, so off I head to the basement to check out the fuse box. Its then I realize I don't know how to tell if a fuse is bad, so I change the ones I think are bad and still no luck. I have to go to work because I am such a dedicated employee and payroll needs to be done. So here I sit wondering how I am gonna fix this problem. Yesterday I had to put on my plumber hat at the bar and unclog a sink that was not draining. The crap that comes out of them is really gross!! I call my mom and she says she will come over after work and check it out for me. You have got to love my MOM she can just about do anything, except use a computer or a cell phone, the new technology throws her for a loop, but she can do plumbing and electric and construction. She has taught me well and normally I can do most of the home repairs myself. But I do tend to panic, thinking the worst and with my mind still missing is not helping. So yesterday I was a plumber and tonight I will be an electrician!! I am woman hear me ROAR!!! So I'm sure that I will have power back in my room by tonight. Well I just seem to be rambling, but I guess its my blog and I can if I want.

Hope you all have a super Monday!!

Tuesday already!!

Yesterday just flew by. I was super busy at work and probably will be today again. The fog of depression seems to be lifting and for that I am grateful. Depression sucks! I mean it really does its just down right depressing, and I made up my mind that I was just not going to be that way!!

I can't believe it almost Christmas and I have not even started my shopping. I guess I better get out there and shop my heart out! I'm just do not know what to get my boys this year. My family draws names so that makes it easier on all of us. All I really want for Christmas is a fence and a really good looking guy to put it up!!! Hey.......... a lady can dream!!
Whats on your Christmas list?!

Hope you all have a great day!!

Never fails!

I get a long weekend and I got sick!! I spent most of Thursday & Friday sleeping. I'm feeling better today! I might even actually get out of my PJ's! So my Thanksgiving was kind of a blur.

My son and I put a coat of paint on the hallway and we hope to have it finished up today. I'm going to try to enjoy what's left of my weekend. Maybe do some shopping. I have never been one of those people who gets up at the crack of dawn the day after Thanksgiving and goes shopping. That's to many people for me. I actually do most of my shopping online. Its so much easier!

I'm getting out of the house today and enjoy the sunshine. I seem to be really depressed and I can't figure out why.It must be the holidays! I have managed to loose 10lbs and thats not a good thing, but it always happens when I get depressed. I seem to just be rambling! So I'm gonna jet out of the house and soak up some sunshine!

Have a super weekend!!

I am so glad its a short week! Tomorrow is my Friday!!!!!! I had the day from hell today, but I still managed to keep a smile on my face. On the home front the new computer seems to be working fine and I am still in the process of loading all my software. That is such a pain in the ass! I really can not think of anything witty to say so....I'm done gonna grab a beer and see what's on TV.

Sunday Update!

I got up early Sunday morning. I was going to get my book work done for the bar early, so I could finish my painting. I went to update my accounting software. I had to turn off my Virus stuff to do this. So my computer will not let me update so I restart and nothing happens. My desktop comes up, but I can't access any of my programs. I try everything!!! Scream in frustration!!!! So I decide I have put up with my computer having its way with me and decide to get a new one. So off I go about a 40 minute drive from home to the nearest well known chain store. I pick the computer I need, wait 2 hours while they get it ready. So I went shopping and got some really nice sweaters, On sale!!!! Woo hoo!!!!! So back to the well know chain store where my computer is still not ready. I wait another 30 minutes and finally its ready. So I head home thinking my whole day has been shot I have just enough time to set it up load up my software and then hit the sack. Well.......I load my accounting software and restore all my information, restart, and yes you guessed it I get the blue screen of death. Not enough memory!!!! I bought a computer with !! WTF!!! So I take a closer look and I have the wrong computer!!! I call the well known chain store and the explain the situation. Then I get to speak to the manager, he offers to take $50.00 off when I come in and do the exchange. I have just enough time to drive 40 minutes to exchange it. Which takes 2 hours!!!! So I get home only install my DSL service and head to be because it has been along day. This morning, I grab my coffee head to my computer and OMG!!!!! The same blue screen of death!!!!! I manage to restore to an early point, but that's about it. I'm just a tad bit upset!!! I will be calling again. Its a brand new computer!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!

Hope you all have a super Monday!! I will be on the phone kicking ass!!!

Paint Fumes!

I have been painting my hallway today and I think the fumes have gotten to me. I have a massive headache but the hall way looks pretty good. I just need to finish one more coat and then the trim. I going with colors this time instead of your normal off white. I felt I needed a little color in my life. I really hate painting, but it has to be done, and I only fell off the ladder once! Which is really good for me. I am a major klutz. I even managed to get most of the paint on the walls instead of myself. Just wanted to update. I'm headed out the door for one of those wonderful singles meet and greets. Did I mention dating really sucks!! Its fun but it does have its down sides. Everyone is so nice when you first meet them and after the awhile the real person comes out and sometimes its scary. I'm thinking about just giving it up and living the rest of my life as an old lady with cats!!

Have a super evening!

Reflection!

I'm spending my weekend in reflection on my past and returning myself back to the time when I was happy. I seem to have lost my faith and I want it back! I gave up my spirituality and that was so wrong. It is so easy to slip back into your old ways. But having already fought this battle I know in my heart it will not take me long to return to the person God has chosen for me to be. God has put me here for a purpose. I believe! I have faith! I have trust! I am not afraid!

Have a wonderful weekend!

HNT & TACOS


Now what does HNT and tacos have in common you ask? Well nothing really! I made tacos last night for dinner at my sons request. We have not had tacos since one of my former boyfriends cooked them. Which is really nice, but, and there is a but. He did not use any seasonings in his taco meat because it made them too much like Taco Bell tacos....hmmmmmm.....So we had hamburger meat wrapped in tortillas... I do not complain because he is cooking, but sometimes I really did not understand his reasoning. Like he did not like me to wear jeans because he felt women stole jeans from men....hmmmmmmmm......SO back to the tacos, I get home from work dinner is ready but I'm not hungry and would like to get some work done in the backyard before I eat. He never liked to eat right after he got home... So I think no problems right? Wrong!!! He feeds the kids and himself and yells out the backdoor to me:

Him:Sweetie, are you going to eat?

Me: Not right now Babe,I really need to get all of these weeds cut down before the city comes by and gives me a ticket for a fire hazard.(What I really want to add is, "That I have been asking you to help me with for weeks, and you could have done it on any of your 4 days off")

Him: Ok I will save it for you.

Me: Thanks Babe!

Later, I come in the house and clean up. He is giving the little one a bath. I head into the kitchen to eat, but can not find the taco stuff. So I head off to the bathroom to ask:

Me: Babe, where is the food?

Him: I threw it away.

Me: Why?

Him: Because there was not enough left.

Me: Them why did you offer it to me earlier?

Him: ummmmmmmmmm, Well there was only enough for one or two.

Me: that's all I ever eat.

I realize there is no point on continuing this conversation. It was just another one of his punishments he loved to dish out.

So now you now a little about why I am single again.

Thanks for letting me get that off my chest!

Happy HNT!!!!!

WHY?

#1...Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting weak?

#2..Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when they know there is no money in the account?

#3...Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billionstars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

#4...Why doesn't glue stick to the bottle?

#5...Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?

#6...Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

#7...Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?

#8...Why did Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

#9...Whose idea was it to put an "S" in the word "lisp"?

#10..If people evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

#11..Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?

#12..Is there ever a day that mattresses are not on sale?

#13..Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?

#14..Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?

#15..Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end you first try?

#16..How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?

#17..When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, "It's all right?" Well, it isn't all right so why don't we say, "That hurt, you stupid idiot?"

#18...Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?

#19..In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?

#20..How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?

#21..If at first you don't succeed, shouldn't you try it like your wife told you to do it?

#22..And obviously if at first you don't succeed, then don't take up sky diving!

And my FAVORITE......

#23...The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends, if they're okay, then its you.

WOW!!

So much had happened in the last couple of weeks its almost been overwhelming! So this morning I'm taking a small break to blog. I had a great 3 day weekend, if you take out the near scalping I almost received on Saturday, it was a close one. Yesterday was a whirlwind of work, and this morning I come in prepared to tackle the stacks of paperwork on my desk only to find the internet is down! No big deal, I thought, but it seems all the work I have to get done requires the internet! I guess I should make hard copies of my forms and such. It now makes me wonder what we did before we had the great wide web. I'm working on a new personal business project and that has taken up alot of time. But if it all works out, it will be well worth the time and effort I have put on. Plus with starting dating again my time is pretty booked. But I'm having the time of my life and it feels great!!

Back to work for me!!
Have a happy Tuesday!!
I got tired of working so I took this quiz.

Your Seduction Style: Fantasy Lover

You know that ideal love that each of us dreams of from childhood? That's you!
Not because you posess all of the ideal characteristics, but because you are a savvy shape shifter.
You have the uncanny ability to detect someone's particular fantasy... and make it you.

You inspire each person to be an idealist and passionate, and you make each moment memorable
Even a simple coffee date with you can be the most romantic moment of someone's life
By giving your date exactly what he or she desires, you quickly become the ideal lover.

Your abilities to make dreams come true is so strong, that you are often the love of many people's lives.
Your ex's (and even people you have simply met or been friends with) long to be yours.
No doubt you are the one others have dreamed of... your biggest challenge is finding *your* dream lover.

Dating Again!

Yes, I have jumped back into dating. Call me crazy, but its so much fun!!!
This time I have made a vow to myself to do the background check before I get involved. Call me a bitch, but it is really something we all should do. I know we are supposed to trust people and I do, but having some information on that person is kinda handy and very informative. Wish I would have done this in the past, but I am one who learns from my mistakes.
Hell, at my age its more like a job interview than a date. So I'm taking my time and enjoying every minute of it.

Hope you all had a super weekend!!!!

My Tummy Hurts!!!

One of my favorite things to do with my son is watch movies. We have theme nights. Last night we had Willy Wonka night. Its one of our favorite movies. So when the new version came out we had to have it. So what you do is buy lots of candy, cookies and ice cream. Pop in the movies and eat all the candy you want. Its really lots of fun.

The new version is good but I really do not think anyone can ever top Gene Wilder! He was awesome as Willy Wonka!

Weekend Update!!

Weekends go so fast, I did not get any painting done. But I baked some awesome cookies. I went out Friday night dancing. I love to dance and have not been in ages. I had a blast. It has been along time since I have hit the hot spots out of town. I was glad to get out of this town if just for the night.

Saturday brought a call from an ex boyfriend(from 4 years ago) it was great to chat. We must have talked for 2 hours. We talked about our breakup and neither of us could come up with why it happened. He asked if I had been to our favorite restaurant, which I have not. It was our place, Im silly that way I guess. We always went for drives to find the most out of the way places to eat. He was very close to both of my boys, as a matter of fact my oldest son and his friends still talk about him and tell me I made a huge mistake letting him go. So I guess today Im feeling kinda sentimental, and wishing that things could have been different with him. Who knows maybe this will be a new beginning for us. I know that I miss him and his quirky ways. Maybe nothing will come of it, but I know I will always love him and he will always be one of my true friends.


Sunday is almost over and tomorrow brings a new day.

Hope you all had a super weekend!

I moved!!

I decided to move my blog because of personal reasons. I just felt that I needed a place to vent about things in my life. It becomes hard to do that when sometimes the people I want to vent about read my blog. Ok so its my fault I gave out my blog address. So I withdrew and it sucked. So it was just easier to move. But it only took that certain person a very short time to find my new site. So I will post whatever I want and if it hurts you, remember you made the choice to come here.

So here we go!!!

I am human, I hurt, I love, and I trust!

Happy HNT!



She never turned her back on you.
Where you ever really there when she needed you?
She's a real woman.
Not a doormat for you.

Hope you all have a happy HNT!!

A Love Story

I will seek and find you . . .


I shall take you to bed and have my way with you .


I will make you ache, shake & sweat until you moan & groan.


I will make you beg for mercy, beg for me to stop.


I will exhaust you to the point that you will be relieved when I'm finished with you.


And, when I am finished, you will be weak for days.


All my love,


The Flu.





Now, get your mind out of the gutter and go get your flu shot!!!

Weekends!!

I sit here today knowing I have so much I have to do today, but not really wanting to start.

I attended the Steak & Lobster dinner last night and it was yummy!! Thanks to JB for being my date.(You are truly a super friend) It was great to see my old friends!

But as I looked around and visited, I realized that things in this small town will never change!
In some ways that is good and in others its not.

Well all the clocks are changed, my work is done for now. I'm going to curl up on the couch with a good book and chill for the rest of the afternoon!!

Hope ya all had a super weekend!

Pumpkins

This years Pumpkins came out pretty good!! We still have 2 more to do!!

Flip Off Friday!!

Woo Hoo!

Finally Flip Off Friday!

Today I give one big Flip Off to my Personel Stalker.....(yes I know you come here every day)
You call me a BITCH like its a bad thing!

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs, they call me a bitch.
When I stand up for those I love, they call me a bitch.
When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts or do things my own way, they call me a bitch.
Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my heart.
It means I live my life MY way.
It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.
When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak against it, I am defined as a bitch.
The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish.
It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.
I am outspoken, opinionated and determined.
I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with that!
So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me.
You won't succeed. And if that makes me a bitch, so be it.
I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.

Have a super weekend!!

Seattle


My trip to Seattle was brief but fun. I got to see the Space Needle from the rental car as we drove by on the freeway to our meeting. It would have been nice to actually stay and see some sights, but it was only a fly in, fly out kinda trip.

I'm going to put Seattle on my places I want to visit before I die.

My oldest son is making the move into his new house. So now comes the fun part! I get to decorate!!!

Have a super Hump day!!!!

Corn Maze




Today we took our annual trip to the Corn Maze!! Its always lots of fun. It took us almost an hour to complete the maze. I was pretty sure this year we where going to be stuck in there forever. By the time we finally made it out I had made up my mind that I am going to quit smoking!!I will not forever be attached to my inhaler.(which I left in the car).It damn near killed me and I want to be able to enjoy activities like this for many years to come. The photo above is the actual Corn field. It is put on every year by the local 4-H club. After the corn maze we get our pumpkins that we will carve for Halloween. It took us longer to pick out the perfect pumpkins than to complete the maze.

We always carve one pumpkin for each of us. The third pumpkin is carved in honor of my dear friend CWG who pasted away in 1997.

Flip Off Friday!!

Happy Flip Off Friday!!!!

Today I am going to give a really HUGE DOUBLE Flip off to...........the 3 T's rule!! (see post dated 10/18/2005) I have made a decision to base the length of time I must avoid the 3T's based on the length of a relationship. The actual 3 T's time limit was based on a very intense 2 year relationship that had just ended.So that comes out to 25%. Based on this I only have to avoid the 3T's for 1.5 months.
OMG......it has been over 1.5 months!!!!!!!!! WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!

Have a very very happy weekend!!!!!

Full Moon


Tonight after I picked up my youngest son from Boy Scouts, he was rambling about Armageddon. I was kinda listening to him when I heard him say that we will know when Armageddon is going to happen because monkeys will fly out of our ears!!! WOW!! I think that's good to know. I just have to wonder if they will be miniature monkeys, cause I think it would hurt like hell to have big ones flying out your ears.

Sometimes he is so helpful, usually when is is avoiding doing his home work. He just made me a cup of tea to relax my muscles and help me sleep. He knows I can't sleep on a full moon. I must be part Werewolf. My grandpa is the same way, not a Werewolf, he can't sleep for 3 nights on a full moon!

Well I'm off to see if I can't get some sleep!! Night all!!

Monday Monday!!!!

My morning started off on an unusual note, I woke up around my usual time 6am, headed for the coffee pot and grabbed my smokes, settled myself into my chair, when I heard an awful commotion coming from my back door. So off I go to investigate. Its rather dark out so I at first can not see where this noise is coming from, so I turn on the light...And lo and behold...Its my Grand Puppy, Rex(who is not so much a puppy anymore but a full grown huge lab)!! Well actually just his head stuck in the cat door, I instantly opened the door trying to free him from the cat door. (I should have grabbed my camera instead) It was just too funny!!! I managed to free him and boy was he happy!!! I do not know how long he had been there. Rex has been staying at my mothers house about 4 blocks away from my home, while my oldest son's house is completed. How he got away from her house is still a mystery. The rest of my day has been rather normal.

Hope ya all had a great Monday!!!!!

12th Anniversary

I touched on Domestic Violence in my Oct 5th post . Today marks the 12th anniversary of the beginning of my journey out of that situation. It was a long hard fight, but I feel I am a better person today because of it.

So in honor of this date, I am taking back my blog. I have been very careful recently of the things I have posted about,I have even deleted and reworded posts, but this is my blog. I created it to express my thought and feelings. So from this day forward I plan to do just that!!

Have a super Tuesday everyone!!!

WORD FOR THE DAY


Finish each day and be done with it.
You have done what you could.
Some blunders and absurdities have crept in;
forget them as soon as you can.
Tomorrow is a new day.
You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit
to be encumbered with your old nonsense.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Monday's got to love them!!!!

Ok, how many of you started out your morning like this?

So much has been given to me;
I have no time to ponder over that
which has been denied.
