Yeah, today's been fun. NOT.

Last night I needed to dry some laundry, only to find out that my dryer is broke. Oh goody. Seems every month something breaks down lately. Bill of course had to work last night so he couldn't look at it to see if he could fix it at the time.

Today it seemed like everything was going wrong. I was in a pissy mood, and very teary for some reason, and in case you were wondering, NO I'm not PMSing. Anyways, its not been a fun day.

Tonight, I had the pleasure of going to the laundromat to dry 4 baskets of laundry. The worst part was hauling it all in and out. Inside wasn't so bad. I filled up 4 dryers, spent about $3.00 and dried and folded all the laundry in about an hour. To bad it can't get done that fast at home. I took Bree & Kels with me. Bree loved running around there. Kels pushed her around in one of the cart things, she had a blast.

On a good note, it is SNOWING. When I went to the laundromat there were like CLUMPS of snow falling it was very cool for this snow lover.

Tomorrow will be a day of cleaning, and cake decorating. I'm hoping things go smoother...cross your fingers.

QOTD: Have you been to a laundromat recently?

Toodles!

The View From Here

I want to share with you the view I see daily. It is not a pretty view.

Hold on to your hats...



Do you know what that is? Its my cats BUTT!

I love my cat, both of them actually... The cat you see in this pic is Sissy. Sissy used to be so afraid of me and everyone. Now she is like a little leech, and she won't leave me alone. If I am sitting here in my chair at the computer, and I lean back to relax a second, she takes that as an invitation to jump up onto me. She climbs onto my boobs, then proceeds to walk in a circle. She makes the trip around, sticking her rear in my face several times before she finally plops down and starts rubbing her face against mine.

She seems starved for attention. Probably because Bill & Zach are always mean to her. The other girls are more into Tigger...so Sissy has taken an extra special liking to me, and getting my attention. I give her some often...but I could totally do without her butt in my face.

That cat butt is the most wicked cat but you'll ever experience. You should hear, and see the stuff that comes out of it. I have never HEARD a cat fart until I met Sissy. She farts like a grown man, with major stomach issues. You can hear it from the other side of the house! Its very scary... Which is another reason why I do not want her rear anywhere near my face.

Just thought you'd like to see my view... Be thankful you don't get to see it in person :)

QOTD: Have you ever HEARD a cat fart before?

Toodles!

To Elliott with Love

Sunday we went to our friends Dan & Cindy's to celebrate Elliott, who was celebrating his birthday up in heaven. We enjoyed cake, and conversation, and we released balloons for Elliott. Here are some pictures.










I made the cake :)

It SNOWED

I didn't get to post about this before, because we had a busy weekend. On Friday night, we got SNOW. I was so excited. Saturday I was busy with cake making and stuff, but the girls got to enjoy the snow a bit with Bill's supervision. I popped out to take a few pictures.







I love the girls faces in this last picture. Snow is so cool :)

Dear...(12-7-10)

Its the most wonderful time of the year... Or at least the week anyways :)

Time for me to hook up with my dear friend Dazee and her Dear... letters. Join in, won't you?

Dear Self...you need sleep.

Dear city that I live in...there is a thing called SALT, its good for melting ice on roads. You might want to consider using it. Then we won't have ice building up and up all over the streets during the winter. There is to much ice already...get with the program.

Dear Mother Nature...Thanks for the snow :)

Dear stomach...you've been very mean to me the last few days, shame on you.

Dear unlimited texting...I LOVE YOU.

Dear cold...I don't like you much.

Dear idiots at the school drop off area...there is a lane to pull over to drop off your kids. Don't stop in the middle of the road and hold up traffic to let your kid out, PULL THE HECK OVER. Its already a cluster&#*@ there and you are making it way worse then it should be.

Dear McD's...please please PLEASE don't stop your $1 any size drinks at the end of this month. I'm begging you. I love you.

Dear moo...do you really need to bark your head off every time you go out to pee? I don't think you need to announce your presence.

Dear Radio Shack...how come every time I shop at your store, it takes FOREVER to check out? Went for a simple pick up of something I ordered online, and it took about 20 min. their computer cash register was slow, then the printer didn't work...oy.

Dear funky looking old mall walker dude...you rock. You were really cruising this morning, your nickname should be SPEEDY.

Dear fleas...GO AWAY. You are not welcome.

That's all I'll bore you with for now. I'm tired, time for bed... In case you were keeping track, only 3 days till my birthday ;)

QOTD: What store gives you slow service? Any?

Toodles!

The Best-est and Busy !

TGIF!

Happy Friday everyone. I hope you all have some fun plans for the weekend.

My weekend is going to be BUSY.

Today, I have cakes to bake. One for an event this weekend, and the other is going to be for Bree's birthday party which is next weekend (the day after MY birthday). I'm going to bake hers while I'm baking, and freeze it to decorate closer to her party.

Tomorrow, I have a cake to decorate. Remember my friends Dan & Cindy that I talk about now and then? Their son's birthday is today. It is his first in Heaven. On Sunday they are having a celebration of Elliott's life. There will be cake ... the one I am making, friends, and I think we are doing a balloon release. Please cross your fingers that this cake turns out great. Please keep Dan & Cindy in your thoughts today too, its a hard day for them.

Tomorrow evening is Bill's company's Christmas party. My mother in law is going to watch the younger girls for us and Bill & I will have a night out. Exciting huh? Doesn't happen very often. I hope the party is fun, and the food is good...and that Bill isn't cranky LOL. They usually have raffle things all through the party, I hope we win something good this year! Cross your fingers :)

Sunday, we have Elliott's life celebration party to go to. I also have to pick up Kelsey who will be at her dads and spending time with her grandparents. Unfortunately, cancer has been a monster again, and this is probably her grandfathers last Christmas...so time with him is important. Kelsey is upset she might be missing Elliott's life celebration, but we think its important she gets time with her grandpa now.

I also want to give a shout out to my friends. I don't have very many. Most are online (and to far away :( ). The friends I do have though are THE BEST-EST friends ever. I just wanted you to know. :)

QOTD: What is your favorite Christmas song?

Toodles...I have cakes to bake!

Dear...(12-1-10)

Yay! It is December! My favorite month. :)

I bet you've all been anxiously awaiting my next installment of Dear... letters, come on, admit it...

Once again I'm joining my friend Dazee and linking up to her. I hope you enjoy it.

Dear Mother Nature...Thank you for bringing me snow, finally. Could you bring me a little more please? I want ground coverage at least...to cover up the leaves that didn't get raked. Thanks.

.

.

Dear Santa...I've been somewhat good...can I still qualify for a good gift?

.

.

Dear Unlimited Texting... You are my new love. LOL.

.

.

Dear Friends & Followers...My birthday is coming up, have you started shopping yet? LOL kidding...about the shopping part.

.

.

Dear Zach & Kelsey...I think you BOTH need Midol.

.

.

Dear shoulder...you can stop hurting any time now.

.

.

Dear Self...get your rear in gear, you've got lists to make, supplies to buy, cakes & cookies to make and decorate.

.

.

Dear Self again...Good job getting all the presents wrapped already, before December even!

.

.

Dear Sissy (one of our cats)...Just because I'm sitting, and relaxing, it doesn't mean I want you sitting on my boobs begging for petting.

.

.

Dear Sissy again...Stop farting. Seriously. You have issues. Cats shouldn't fart like that. Your farts can be heard from the other side of the house...that is just wrong.

.

.

Dear Tigger (our other cat)...please leave the ornaments on the tree alone.

.

.

Dear Moo (our dog)...you are getting heavy! I wish we could find a new owner for you, so you can run around a house not be stuck in one room to avoid you eating our cats. You deserve better.

.

.

Dear Bill...Thanks for putting the Christmas lights up on the house last weekend.

.

.

Dear house...can you please stop getting messy so fast? They make self cleaning ovens...I need a self cleaning house.

.

.

Dear Donna...You rock. I'm very thankful to be your friend.

.

.

Dear Jilly...If you keep eating non stop, you'll end up looking like your mother. Speaking of eating, when you make something, pick up after yourself, and eat it all or don't make it. You don't need to make 5 things, only take a bite out of each and waste the rest.

.

.

Dear Bree...your knock knock jokes are cute, but after the millionth one, I'm kind of getting sick of them. Can you learn something new and cute so we can move on from the jokes? :) I never did like knock knock jokes, even before you started telling them 24/7.

.

.

Ok, thats enough...until next time...

.

.

QOTD: Christmas lights...colored? white? flashing? or still? How do you like them?

Toodles!
