sugar rush!

Don't be jealous but when Carson and I got home from family fun time with the Powell's at around 10pm last night - I got to clean up a whole bag of sugar that was ALL over my kitchen floor. And just FYI - sugar is not that easy to clean up. I had the brand new bag of sugar and a bag of chocolate chips out to make cookies today. Yes, you guessed it - Duke got a hold of it. You would think I would have learned my lesson after Duke ate our pumpkin bread off of the counter - but nope - I'm a slow learner. I didn't have to clean up any chocolate chips though because Duke ate them all. I called Brad right away to gripe and get sympathy and he was worried about Duke eating all of that chocolate. Whatever! If he dies - then at least he died eating chocolate, not the worst way to go, especially considering what I wanted to do to him right then.

Well, we got most of it cleaned up and saved the really bad stuff for Brad to clean up today since he didn't get home until 3:00 am. There is about a pound of sugar in Duke's cage right now...

I'm still waiting for Duke's sugar high to crash. He was so bad all night running around, barking, wanting in and out. It was kind of funny - okay - not it wasn't - I was tired and just wanted him to leave me alone.

So, if you want any cookies from me - feel free to come lick my kitchen floor because I'm not sure I'll ever get all of it up.

don't be jealous....

Don't be jealous but, I have lots to be thankful for...

Okay - so as I'm reading every one's sweet Thanksgiving blog - I thought I should show a "serious" side of me before I post all the nonsense of the Thanksgiving holiday!!

I'm thankful for:

My husband that does so much for us and loves so deeply and unconditionally.

My precious Carson for his laughter, love and cuddles when I can get them.

My family - extended family too that welcomes everyone with open arms & allows me to have my crazy sense of humor without banishing me from the family.

Okay, that is all I could think of that I was thankful for...(i couldn't be completely serious)

hmmm?

sorry about that last post. it was from Pierre, my 8 year old Bichon Frise. shame on him!! he knows he is banned from the computer ever since we found him googling "doggie style". at least Brad said it was him. hmmm, now i wonder?!?

don't be jealous but,

i sleep around 22 hours per day, eat, pee & poop (just about anywhere i want to) and lick myself. oh what a life...

LLama LLama Red Pajama

So if you know me, you know I love a good llama. So imagine my surprise and delight when my World Vision Sponsor Magazine came with the Christmas items we can purchase for our "adopted" child. Goats, chickens, soccer balls & LLamas!!! And they are only like $600. What a steal. Of course, my child is in Ethiopia - and I don't think they have Llamas there - but still - greatness. I wonder if I could buy one and have the "ship to" address come here. Wouldn't my husband be surprised Christmas morning.

Don't be jealous...

On a scale from 1 - 10....

So, my singles Sunday School class is going to have a reunion soon. These are friends from 10 years ago. I'm excited because most of these people I've not seen in 6+ years and have only really kept in touch with a few via e-mail. One of those is my ex-boyfriend. I mean a real ex - like we dated for a 1 1/2 years and were in love!!!

Now don't get me wrong - I love my husband - but girls - you know we have to look good for our ex boyfriends - right.

Well, here is the problem. I was a size 2 then, now I'm size %#@!.

On a scale from 1-10, how morally wrong is it to tell everyone at the reunion I'm 5 months pregnant? I mean - I won't see these people for at least another 6 years - by then they will have forgotten all about the other child I should have...right?!?

I know, I'm bad, very very bad.

Got hungry birds???

So don't be jealous, but I'm driving around with a 40lb bag of bird feed in my car. It is for work, don't ask? For those of you that may not know your poundage - that is A LOT of bird food...

The really sad and pathetic part is my weak body trying to lift this 40lb bag into my car at Target today. I looked like I was trying to shove a 200lb dead body in my car.

Don't be jealous but...

I think I have Plantar Fasciitis!

Snot nose

Remember how I don't like snotty noses. Well, I've had a cold for 3 days - so today I'm sitting in a 2 hour networking lunch having to blow my nose the whole time and had no tissue. I just kept sniffing. I could picture the snot dripping out my nose. All I had was the white linen napkin at Prestonwood Country Club - and I was about to go for it and blow my nose in that - but gross. Why didn't I just get up and go to the bathroom - I DON'T KNOW. As soon as I got to my car - I blew and blew - it was a great feeling.

Don't be jealous but...

I wore two different shoes to work last week and didn't discover it until 4 hours into my long day. I had a packed day of meetings and had to go buy new shoes. Ya - don't be jealous.
