BURPS AND KISSEY-LIKE  

Tuesday, January 26, 2010

I picked up Bo from school today.

Bo: "Mommy? Do you know what happens to burps when they're done?"
Me: "Um, no."
Bo: "They go up into your mouth and then into your brain! That's why you act goofy sometime!!"

Then, when I picked Syd up from school today, I got enlightened.

Apparently, Syd's friends, Gabby and Kaitlin, got into a fight on the playground today. When I asked Syd what it was about, she said it was over a boy Gabby liked.

Syd: "Gabby just doesn't like him. She kissey-likes him!"

Kissey likes? Per Syd, there is a difference if you just like someone versus if you kissey-like someone.

The impending holidays.....  

Friday, December 18, 2009

I really can't say I'm excited about Christmas this year. Not that I get totally ecstatic about Christmas any year....BUT, this will be my first Christmas morning without kids (well, prior to having children). The soon-to-be-ex will be getting them Christmas Eve. And, I honestly can say, this doesn't really bother me at all. The thought of being able to sleep in on Christmas morning is absolutely bliss.....

I just can't get into the holiday buying. My girls tend to get A LOT of gifts! I mean, A LOT!! Not from me (or previously "us"), but from my family and his. What is a mom to do with all that stuff? Good thing is, the stuff can be split up at different houses now.....hence, that means, anything I don't really want at my house, can go to his!! HA! That means....hmmmm......the talking doll? the one that poops and pees? Sounds like a good toy to have at dad's house! Hey, this may be fun!! LOL!

And, I have decided. I am NOT sending out Christmas cards this year. Don't really want to. But, I will be taking the annual Christmas picture! I already have THE idea buzzing around my head. Can't wait to actually do it. Maybe this weekend. AFTER Yvonne and I make peppermint bark! SO looking forward to this!

Been working on my photography skills. Am really needing a new camera, as there are little quirks on mine, and my focusing points are slowly going. Alas, this will have to wait. Too many other things that I need to take care of.

AND, my little sister, Sha, is getting married next June to Wesley! Such a great guy! And, he treats her SO good.


Promise to post some more pictures soon! As I took some awesome ones recently of another couple!

wow.....  

Thursday, November 19, 2009

I admit. I haven't felt like blogging in quite some time. I have been SO preoccupied with life situations, which have seemed to take the everyday "joys" out of my life. But let's not dwell on that.

Just got home. Just saw New moon.
EARLY!!!!
May I say,
IT WAS FREAKING AWESOME!!!

I have plans to take the girls tomorrow night. That is, if the theater isn't sold out already.
WOW!
Bo is SO going to go crazy!!
In fact, Syd, my 7-year-old, came home with a present for me last week.
My very OWN New Moon poster of Jacob!
I have to say, I thought it was very sweet of her.
(She did say she wanted to buy me a poster of Edward, but they were all gone.)
But, um...
where am I suppose to hang said poster?
In my room?
Like, I'm "old". I'm a mother. And, Jacob is like really, really young.
I have to say, I much prefer some man candy like
Paul Walker.

I must say, this "boy" really does it for me. I could look at him everyday!

But, I digress...
Oh, I SO can't wait until tomorrow!!!

(and you girls thought I was going to post a picture of New Moon!!)

Oh, and I really, really liked this about the movie.....

Does that surprise anyone?

It's the little things  

Friday, October 16, 2009

Little things make me happy.
Especially FORGOTTEN little things.
Like,
logging into i-tunes and having
the New Moon soundtrack that I pre-ordered....
downloading.
WOOHOO!
Very, very exciting!
(Especially since it was released four days early!)

Girls,
that means approximately one month, and it's the
New Moon Marathon!!

the BLAHS  

Thursday, September 24, 2009

Ever have those days (or in some cases, weeks) where nothing seems to go right?
I'm having one of those.
Can't really pinpoint why I feel this way, but I do.

The DH is driving me freaking insane!!
Bo is too loud! Not to mention, she's SO whinny!
Syd is definitely my "light at the end of the tunnel", but
even she has been a smart mouth!
Work sucks (need I say more?)!!
And, I swear, I can't get anything accomplished!!

I just have the blahs...

Good news, though, I am going on Syd's field trip to the butterfly museum tomorrow!
Possibly some good, inspiration.
Bringing the camera, of course!
AND...
you can actually purchase a chrysallis (or two) to bring home....
and
then, watch it hatch.
SO doing that!!

Gonna try to post some pictures on my blog this weekend.
went to the beach last weekend in search of
SHARKS' TEETH.
Found 4.
Yes.
Only 4.
But, that's four more than I've found before!!
Had a great time.
Got a better tan.

Well, I'm off. To bed that is.
tired, and I have a long day ahead of me tomorrow!
Ciao!

Everyone knows that Donna Downey rocks! She is totally all inspiring and the fact that she likes vampire smut makes her so much better! Not to mention, her friendly personality and zany sense of humor!

I got to meet her at CHA this summer in Orlando! She's great!! Anyways, I dropped by her blog today, and look what I found! Marianne of Pickled Pear Lane has donated these wonderful fat quarters to be given away to one lucky person chosen off of Donna's blog!




So, I am keeping my fingers crossed, as this awesome fabric would look great in a project I am cooking up!!
