UNBELIEVABLY STUPID WEB PAGES


I found this book at Barnes and Nobel and thought it would make good blogger material, so here goes....

Ever had problems with cats climbing on your keyboard and messing things up? If so, head over to this odd site.
Someone put a lot of effort into a product with an extremely limited use. Stupid. Very Stupid.

ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!!


It's almost the middle of June and all we have been getting is nothing but rain and gray sky......... enough already! Bring on the sunshine! Still too cold to sit out on my porch without lighting the fire! Come on, how are we supposed to get our camping in when it's threatning rain? My boys keep talking about their 85 to 90 plus degree weather in Florida and Illinois and it's making me so jealous!

Blown out knee!


I have been having trouble with my knee for sometime now, and I don't know what I did the last few days that made it worse, but it is very painful and hard to walk. I kicked something and thought I would die for the pain! Can't get an appointment for another 10 days! SUCKS!!! At this stage of my life the old bones and joints are getting worn out! Must be from all that housework! Maybe I should let go of some of that and teach LarBear to do it for me! HA, like that is going to happen!

Movies this weekend


On Friday, my day to myself, I enjoyed going to a movie of my choice. LarBear always decides what movie is good or not by reading all the reviews. I wanted to go to a movie of my choice without knowing ANYTHING at all about it or what the review said. I went to see Baby Momma! It was very cute and funny. Not a movie that was going to be a big blockbuster, but it was very enjoyable! Then we went to see Narnia after the D-Derby! It was awesome! I loved the first one and this was just as good! Great lessons in it too!

Great Weekend





It was a very nice weekend! Friday, all to myself, just doing stuff around the house and then a little shopping! Saturday LarBear and I went to a Destruction Derby! I love going to these. It's crazy, but I grew up with all brother and lots of cars. I admit that I am a lead foot, and watching cars race around the track crashing into each other is quite a thrill for me! Then there is the roll over contest where they roll the car on purpose and get points for each side that they hit. a complete rollover is 4 points! Then there is the fire on the track and the siren goes off and everyone comes running to put out the fire and make sure every one is ok. The green flag waves and off they go again. The figure 8 race is always a trill with 8 to 10 cars going around and barely missing each other, or not! With all the rain we had this weekend, the track was oozing with mud! We were on the front row and got to see the mud flying right in front of us as the cars came sliding around the corner. It was amazing that they were able to get out of it. There goes another car without it tire, amazing how they keep going, but out on the road we can't move with that flat tire!! The throphy girl gets out of the fancy truck to give the muddy driver the throphy and a big hug, gets back into the truck and checks out her WHITE jacket to see if he got mud on her!!!! WHITE? REALLY? The last event of the night is all out craziness! About 20 cars come out and the green flag waves and it's last car moving is the winner. They show no mercy and by the time it's all over the cars are so mangled, then the tow trucks come out and sort out the mess. All of a sudden a car will start up with smoke rolling out from the hood and it moves, the crowd cheers as one survives and is able to drive off the track on its own!!! Crazy entertainment, but I love it!

Thankful Thursday


OK, it's time I got on board with the Thankful Thursday thing, so here goes....

1. I am thankful for my children. We had a worker's only child at age 30 died on Sunday and it hit me that I would be a mess if I lost my daughter, who is 30. I just wanted to go see her and just hug her and love on her. My other two live out of state and so I called them and just loved on them too.

2. I am thankful for a very loving husband that lives and breaths for me. Wow, it's sometimes a bit much, but I am so very thankful for his love for me and how he sacrifices every day for me.

3. I am thankful for my job even though most days I still would rather be doing something else.

4. I am thankful for our home. It's so big without all the kids now, but I still love being there. I love being able to paint and do projects!

5. I am thankful for my friends at work and other friends that enrich my life. I love how my friends know when I am down and are there for me. That means the world to me. I love to laugh with my friends...that's what gets us through the day!

6. I am thankful for my princess cat, Sofie! She is so precious to me and I love her so much. She loves to sleep with me... sorry Lar, but the princess gets all the snuggles!! Well, most of the time!

Glitz and Glitter


Found this web page from Amy's blog.... I love these girls! I love glitter and things that sparkle! Check it out! http://www.otttd.blogspot.com

Obsessed with Pink

Yes, I LOVE Pink! I love pink flowers, pink shoes, pink nail polish and dishes with pink flowers or pink Betty Boop! I think pink is so pretty and I would have a room with pink and white if Lar Bear wouldn't object, but I don't think he would go for that! I love to wear pink with black. Jewelry looks really good with pink too.... what doesn't look good in pink? Well, that could be a good one to think about! Hmmmm ..... I decided to google a graphic for this blog and I found something that made me laugh because it is something that does NOT look good in pink..... Agree? That is just NOT right!!!

Bike Accident


CAR CRASHES THROUGH BIKE RACE IN MEXICO.........
I feel for these people as I know what it's like to be flying through the air with the greatest of ease, with bike flying and then the landing! Oh, the landing! What is sad is that one person died and 10 people were injured. The driver of the car was drunk and fell asleep! If only people who drink will just STAY OFF THE ROAD!
I am more sure than ever that I don't want to ever ride a bike again!
Maybe the one in our work our room is ok, at least I can't be hit by a car or have the fear that the handle bars are going to come off. I think I will stick with that.

Life Long Freinds

I love talking to old friends...there are just some people that will forever mean so much to you. Even if you haven't talked to them for years, when you see or talk to them it's like no time has passed. Relationships with people are really important to me and once a friend always a friend. I talked to an old friend that I haven't seen for quite a while and it was so refreshing. Then an old coworker that has been gone for 9 years and it was so nice to catch up with life. Then on Saturday I attended a memorial for an old friend of our family that passed away. Our families grew up together and my mom even wore her wedding dress and they both had 5 kids. I loved visiting them through the years. It was good to see all the kids even though it was under those circumstances. It's good to be there for them. Two of my brothers came as well. My best friend growing up was there. So this weekend was really like stepping into the past. I am very thankful for all these friends that have enriched my life.
