Who watches this show besides me? While I'm not thrilled with the casting this season, I still watch it. Derek & Jennifer are my favorites this season. Derek is HOT, sizzling HOT...and he & Jennifer dance great together. I actually called and voted last night, something I normally don't do until the end.
There was some comedy on the show last night. The video of Corky Ballas & Florence Henderson rehearsing was great! They had Florence's daughter, and Mark Ballas (a pro on the show, who is also Corky's son) watching to tell them if their dance moves were appropriate or NOT appropriate, they would hold up a sign to show their feelings...OMG it was funny, I was laughing out loud. Mark's laugh at his dad was great. It is nice to have some comedy in with the show.
I love Mark Ballas, but I really hope his partner Bristol is sent home tonight...Sorry Mark.
I'm enjoying Kyle Massey's dancing, and so is Jillian, she voted for him last night using my cell phone. He has youngness to him, and he is entertaining.
Tell me what you think of this season so far :)
QOTD: Did you have a good nights sleep last night?

Fall Fun
While at my mom's house today for the garage sale, Jilly & Bree raked a little pile of leaves.
Many giggles were had in that little pile of leaves.
The leaves were falling from the trees, and the girls were scooping them up and throwing them at each other.
Jilly buried Bree in the leaves.
I love the colors of the trees at my mom's house.
Toodles!

Signage
I had to make signs for our garage sale this week. I wanted something cool, that would grab peoples attention.
I had a good fun idea, I thought anyways...But Kels said it wouldn't be a good idea...
I wanted to make a drawing of a butt. Then put next to it, "Help us clear out the junk in our trunk, attic, and basement, come to our garage sale!" I think it would have been awesome.
Instead I made these signs:
I thought they were kinda cute...I had a lady comment on them today. She asked who made the cute signs.
To bad the signs didn't bring in a bunch of customers...it was totally dead today, so disappointing. Garage sales are a ton of work, and to not have crap for sales...well...its depressing!
We planned on doing a one day sale, but now we are going to do it tomorrow too, to see if we have better luck and better sales. Cross your fingers for me!

Glass Galore
I like meatloaf. I make it frequently. I make it in the same way, in the same glass baking dish, each time.
That will no longer be an option.
Why?
Because. Because when I made it yesterday, the same way as always, something happened. Something that about made me piss myself.
You see, I had taken the meatloaf out, drained some of the grease off, set it on the top of the stove, as always. Then I went to mix the ketchup and brown sugar mixture that I spoon on top then bake on for a bit. As I was mixing it, all the sudden, KABOOM! I turned around to find glass shards EVERYWHERE. The glass pan just shattered, blew up. Not sure why. I am sure it scared the crap out of me.
I'm thankful no one was in the kitchen with me. It could have really hurt someone.
What a mess to clean up...glass was everywhere. I ended up with some in my thumb. Ouch. I did get it out though with some tweezers, but zowies it hurt.
One piece landed in a candle that was on the counter, it melted the candle and got embedded into it. Kinda cool...if flying hot glass can be cool.
The glass seemed to all fly away from the meatloaf. I checked it really close, since Bill wouldn't let me pitch it, God forbid we waste anything...but I sure couldn't enjoy it like I normally do, I was worried I'd bite into a piece of glass at any second....
QOTD: Have you ever had a glass baking dish shatter?

Sweetness
I'll post more in a bit, just wanted to do a quickie for now....
Bree can be such a sweety. Tonight I'm exhausted from garage sale hell. I told Bree I was super tired.
Bree said, "Mommy,you can lay your head down on my arm and sleep."
I did what she said, I laid my head down, closed my eyes and pretended to snore.
Bree softly kissed my head and whispered, "Good night mommy, sleep tight."
Awwww.

Mad about Moo
Moo is our dog. She was originally named Jasmine, but she looks like a cow, so she got nicknamed Moo...and it has stuck.
I'm not overly fond of Moo. In fact, lately, I'm really not liking her much.
Several times a week Moo is mean to me, and it makes me mad. I let her out before I go to bed to do her business, then I put her in her cage for the night. Seems like she has sleep radar, and if I start to doze off, she starts whining and barking to go out and pee again. Some nights she'll only wake me once or twice. Some nights it is out of control...like last night. Seems like every 5 minutes she was barking to go out again. By 12:15, 2 hrs past the time I tried to go to bed, and after about 10 trips outside with her, I had had enough. I gave her a small portion of one of her tranquilizers. I guess that is bad of me isn't it? I just couldn't take it anymore. I was already exhausted from the night before and so looking forward to sleeping, then she postponed that for me, I was so tired. I need Bree & Moo to cooperate, and let me sleep a few nights uninterrupted, I need it so bad, I'm sick of feeling tired all the time.
While I'm mad at Moo, Bree is mad about Moo... She seems to enjoy talking to Moo a lot lately, sneaking treats to her, laying by her cage, and giving her hugs & kisses as well.
Here are some cute pics of Bree & Moo doing hugs & kisses this afternoon

Busy & Lazy :)
Busy & Lazy. Those are my excuses for being a blog slacker.
As you know, if you read my blog, I've been busy with cookies & such. Then I had a messy disaster of a house to clean, for it all got put off while I did cookies.
Then I had a case of being lazy. I didn't feel like doing anything, and blogging was included. I've been tired, and cranky. The neighbors dogs have kept me awake until around midnight a few nights, along with Bree's wakings and my own dog needing to go out. I would really love to have a few nights of uninterrupted sleep.
Next it was busy again...spent most of yesterday out at my moms. She & I are having a garage sale at her house on Friday, so there was a lot of pricing...and repricing, since Bree kept taking the dang stickers off! I still have a few more boxes of stuff to price that is down in my basement yet, and I have tables to get hauled over there too. Thursday I go back to set everything up, and Friday morning will be sale time. Fun fun. Not. Garage sales are so much work! I hope everything sells, so I don't have to find a place to send it too. I sure as hell am not bring it back home.
Well pooh, there was more I was going to tell you all, but after having a bunch of interruptions I don't remember what it was! LOL I'm getting so old.
QOTD: What do you like to eat on a cool fall day?
Toodles!
P.S. Here are a few pics of some of the cookies I made last week:
