Mr Who?

In case you all wonder what sort of man I am married to. This video sums it up perfectly This is WHAT I MARRIED Not the man but that is the spirit exactly hehe by the way he agrees completely Training is going well After 24 years he is a little better.....just... a little

Christmas Cards

I havent mailed out Christmas Cards in years I also oddly enough havent gotten any in the last two years But I think this video kind of sums up my whole feelings on the card swapping tradition And no dear internet I am not a Scrooge. I actually like Christmas a lot I just like to have a laugh and dont take it all too seriously

Best Christmas Song

Ever

Happy BDAY to MEEE

YAY ME Last year I thought I was turning 46 But I was only 45 So I got like a free year This year if anyone asks I tell them I am 56 Then they tell me how young I look AWESOME When that doesnt work anymore then I will know that I am old What a great plan.

Christmas Evilness

Christmas The time to share give love blah blah Whats a mean diva like me to do? Never fear I have some things to share with you Ways to be your evil self while still being in Christmas mode My cousin and I had our babies about six months apart One year I gave her toddler play dough The next she gave mine finger paints Following year her bundle of joy received a gun with 27 annoyingly loud sounds My kid got GLITTER BARBIE My kid poured the tube of glitter in our bed Under the covers so we didnt notice until we got up the next day and I had stripper glitter on my Well you get the picture She won! I sure miss those days Go spread some Christmas cheer to your friends with toddlers for me! Fun times

Mean Streak

Dance Central

LOL This is me doing Kinect Dance Central OH YAH I got moves Who wants to take me dancing

Nothing says Freedom

Nothing says Freedom like nothing else to lose Janis Joplin lyric I believe but sometimes these hard financial times seem to hit me in other more subtle ways. Example the convo with my online friend Her: I am eating flakes of corn Me: wth? Her: They are like generic Corn Flakes Me: OH! Like Happy Os? Her: Right just like that I think if I put enough sugar on them they will be fine Yup Like Bob Dylan sang.... These times..... They are a changing

Under Pressure

I have been really busy lately (last month) Doing an online class There were like 5 tests I think I dont know it is a blur now If you remember I was moaning I wasnt acing them even though they were open book Well Thursdays Finale I was sweating I wouldnt pass it I dont know what it is but if there is any pressure on a test I start freaking out The dumb thing scores it as you are going along so my mind does the math quickly OMG If I miss 4 more I fail 3 2 1 OMG OMG I got 5 questions left and if I Miss one more I FAIL FAIL FAIL its ok internet I didnt miss any But I sat on that last question for 20 minutes Freaking out IF I MISS THIS I FAIL Shaking Crying Yes I am that insane But yay its over YAY ME LOL

Black Listed

I use to get a Speigel catalog every year These things are huge Like door stops They were full of lovely full page ads Glossy paper Shiney new clothes I loved them I kept it on the coffee table for months The thing was so well made it looked like a coffee table book But sadly I am not quite the shopper I use to be It doesnt mean I dont love them I do like me some fantasy shopping and looked forward to getting the christmas issue every year. But this year I got a flimsy 10 page one. Sniff I am off the mailing list Boohoo They figured out I am broke Why does this make me sad? I am not even worth  fantasy shopping anymore Maybe because all I get in the mail now is offers from credit repair agencies How the heck did I get on that list Do they know something I dont haha Maybe i will get a nice Walmart flyer tomorrow Maybe if I order something inexpensive from Speigel I will get back on their list

ZUMBA

I want the kinect for xbox as I have already told everyone But there is a Zumba game you can use with it too! While researching it on you tube I saw this video Its long but I am sharing because 1. it shows you an entire zumba class 2. watch the lady in the green shirt (that would be my mom if we took one) 3. the lady right behind her? That would be me if we took a class Hilarious

I went to Staples to pick up something and saw they had all their office chairs on display CLEARANCE Rows and rows of different types and colors I was happily sitting in them all but lets face it an office chair is an office chair and they all bite Each and every chair was marked between 89 to 99 dollars so what can one expect. I was happily plopping my fat butt in them all to see if any of them are better than the crappy one I have at home That seems a fair price so I am sure I can find one I like I am not that picky But then... I sat in a chair That was plush And soft And so freaking comfy OMG I am so buying this chair for 99$ Except It was 399$ Marked down from 499$ Out of dozens of chairs I find the one that is 5 times as much Why is this chair here Now none of them are worth a crap None Because the only chair I want now is the one I cant afford When I was a young girl my mom would constantly berate me for my champagne taste on a beer budget Or accuse me of m

I call this picture I dont know why it is upside down  I need a sound proof office I surfed all over the web for tips and tricks They showed me lovely homes redone in sound proof dry wall  With insulation Beautiful rooms with gleaming walls to put your 6 foot desk and 40 inch monitor and paper mache flowers. Um Yah I dont want to spend money I want to make money Whats a poor lazy white trash girl to do? I will tell you I threw every single area rug down on the floor for a wonderful visual  of 18 different colors overlapping to cover the worst stains I pounded in nails all over the concrete walls and hung up all my too small, out of fashion, why did I buy this clothes. Sprayed Fabreeze all over them to mask the dust, mold , closet must and  how old is this crap anyway smell and Wah LAH Can you hear me now? No No I cant  How about when I scream really loud for someone to bring me a soda Nope cant hear you now either  Success 

Homecoming

Honey Im home There are a lot of catch sayings around to announce your arrival home The boring I'm home or Fred flintstone screaming Wilma! There is Mr Cleaver's condescending Honey I'm home. Even better is Cheers exuberant NORM! But my niece has beat them all. When she was a toddler she would run into your home and announce with arms up over her head YAY! I'm here! And yes dear internet that is now my catch phrase upon entering anyones home. YAY I'M HERE Woot!

More Iphone Love

Image
I love my iphone I got one when they first came out I listened to so many lectures on why I shouldnt buy one. Why it would fail. Why it was over priced I even nicknamed one co worker IPHONE HATER and that is who he is now and forever more But the people who seemed most offended by the Iphone are Blackberry owners I do not know why I think the Blackberry is awesome too. I just love my Iphone I have no hate for the Blackberry but this........... is hilarious see more funny videos

Family Discussions Everyone Should Have

The kids came over Saturday It was a fun visit I love it when they visit. They were showing me how to use an xbox But while they were showing me all the features I saw you could get movies on demand through Netflix So I was all like lets watch movies NOW No dont show me anymore features MOVIES NOW! Anyway we were watching Zombie land At one point I said If I ever get bit by a zombie would you....YES was the reply Yes we will shoot you in the head Don't worry Then I think they argued over who would get to do it I am not really sure because I was laughing too hard AWWWW  Family got to love them

There is a scene in the movie Goodfellas that always makes me laugh Business is slow? F.U. Pay me Kids in college? F.U. Pay me. I dont remember it line for line but basically it is all Who cares Pay ME! But...... Did you know..... When bill collectors call If you hesitate.......... They start to negotiate Things like....

Where is Gamma?

I call this picture  shameless affiliate link My mom got herself a kindle and instead of buying books I hooked her kindle up to my account so she can read my library I have like 185 books on mine I havent spent any time with her in a week Then when she did come over she had her kindle in her purse I caught her reading it while I was talking and being amusing. I got replies like MMM HMMMM Neat! Oh Really! Hmm if it wasnt so cool that my mom is all techy and has a ebook reader now, I would be offended. Anyway she loves it she likes it because its lightweight,and you can make the font HUGE! If you want to know what to buy your parents for xmas I would recommend getting them one They have really went down in price too

Eastdown and off key

This show on HBO called Eastbound and Down is about a baseball player who loses his game After being rich and famous he is back home living with his brother teaching PE at a school in his former home town. Poor, forgotten, but not down at least in his own mind. He is still convinced he will be back on top The only thing he has left from his glory days is his jet ski which he takes out when times get bad to get his head together. I do the same thing in my sports car Top down Music blaring I go fast down two lane country roads singing as loud as I can My mom called and my voice was so hoarse she thought I was crying LOL But no I am just doing my own Eastdown and out but I do mine louder and off key

But you know it's all relative to me of course LOL  I am going to try and not be so  funny,charming,sarscastic,honest,mysel f at least for awhile Sounds boring to me though  Don't tell anyone dear internet for all my being mean I am really a softy and I hate how people see right through me.

Here Kitty Kitty

I havent blogged this week because I have been kind of sad Our cat has gone missing Her collar the one with the bell on it had come off the day before and I didnt get her a new one. The next day she came up missing My daughter was over and went door too door with a picture but no one has seen her I called the shelters and vets in area no help. I put an advert in the paper and the few times the phone has rung I answer it with my hopes up high. People are calling to offer me their unwanted cat People are calling to offer me their unwanted kittens One called to scold me for letting her out Another called to say she saw a couple dead cats on the road and although they didnt match my cats description she is probably dead and I should have never let her outside. All I can say is. What is wrong with people Dont call an advert for a missing pet unless you think you have found her Save us some more grief please Either way I am going to think some other family adopted her A famil

Country Living

If you read my blog you know that I love my small adopted town When I was 17 and going into my senior year of high school my mom moved us from the city to this itty bitty town. Not the one I am in now but fairly close The first day of school a fire truck went by and the entire class ran to the window to see what was going on. I jaded city girl stayed seated and thought WTH and looked at the teacher up front But he wasnt up front He was at the window straining to look over the students and saying Does anyone see anything? They all turned around and there I sat alone and erm .....amused, horrified, flabbergasted, staring at them all in contempt. Now of course I get it. I like small towns But there is still a city girl in me that doesn't like everything country. Things like bugs, no mass transit, lack of sidewalks, stores closing on Sunday. Which brings me to this video Warning the man uses graphic language so if you are easily offended dont click it I think the laugh i

I call this pic Goober says WTH? I walked in the bathroom Saturday and the carpet was wet right by the tub Quite satuarted really I figured someone got sloppy during a shower Not me I actually need a shower pretty badly hehe. The towel became sopped so I put another one down but by Sunday it was soaked too. Uh oh Something i leaking Hubby tore up the bathroom wall and decided handle is leaking runs down tub side and onto floor OK Easy enough fix But he said, since he was in there he would replace that wall it looks pretty nasty anyway its been leaking awhile Wow Ok that is ambitous, but go for it. After he was in there for 6 hours I opened the door and said How is it going? Fine I just have to tighten this nut. And I kid you not dear internet ... Like something out of a sitcom A bad sitcom A gush of water jetted out of the wall hit him full in the face and knocked him back on his butt. Did I panic? Did I scream? Of course not! I busted out laughing Because tha

Fat Nation

Image
Have you seen these commercials for Lanacane? Balloon people with their legs rubbing together I don't know if I should be offended by this commercial? Maybe its more like I am thrilled they are making this stuff? Why didn't they have this crap when I was younger and wore shorts(thank goodness for capris coming back in style) Maybe they did but it was taboo to market it I tell you what it is certainly a weird thought that you could be in a situation where some hot stranger asks you what is  that white cream is on your thighs Would any answer not be embarrassing Oh that is just the cream I wear so I don't chafe when my huge fat thighs rub together. Ok i will take it as marketing. Hey ad guys you want the next new AD CAMPAIGN? Find me something that stops me from sweating under my boobs. I doubt you could use balloon people for that. Perhaps cotten ball chicks? What you think?

That's not my Name

First off, I love this song I know it is too young for me really but it is quite catchy I am terrible with using names So everyone I know has a nickname Boo=hubby Gamma =mom Geeb(hard G)=daughter Goob=goober the dog FRIEND(always in caps)=my friend What about you dear internet You have any weird nicknames for your friends and family

Physics says your tires will squeal if you turn when you are going that fast I get that too BUT..... If you are going to go flying down my street with no thought of stopping Could you shut your music off? That's all I am saying

Final Answer

I can be one of those people when they say recent Gallup polls indicate ..... YAY! Some of the questions though, I dont know. Is it good if the poll taker trying to sound all professional keeps busting out laughing? Here are a few questions that got her giggling and I thought my answers quite proper and professional. Did you eat 5 servings of fruits and vegatables yesterday Erm No But I ate at least 5 times. On a Scale of 1 to 10 economy wise how would you rate your life now 7 Where do you expect it to be in 5 years A 10, I am an optimist obviously. Would you say you are satisfied or dissastified with the job the president is doing Erm are those my only two choices Yes Erm.....Well it;s like moving in a demolished house and trying to remodel I suppose.

Nothing Special

I have a friend I met online We both are married Our hubbies act the same way ( Big babies) We have the exact same livingroom furniture They have one daughter They take their daughters best friend on vacations just like I did with my girls best friend. We are the same age We have the same kind of dog Her daughter even collects ducks like mine does We went on vacation together and were asked numerous times if we were sisters We have the same laugh.(think of chickens clucking) We ping each other on msn the exact second the other person sits down in front of puter We work the same schedules(stupid early) The other day I told her to put the cake down put it DOWN and she was all omg how did you know. Our moms have been married and divorced the same amount of times ( I wont say but its unusual) We both moved a lot as kids and went to same number of different schools. We were both slutty,wild,out of contro l,fun before we got married. We both spend way too much money It is c

How to Wash your Car

Ask hubby  if he will do it Tell him never mind you will do it Whine you cant find car stuff Whine you cant get hose hooked up Wash the tires first rather then last Put too much soap on it Do it all wrong Thank him for helping when he grabs sponge in disgust and does it himself Try to dry it with a bath towel Look confused as he screams out in horror and grabs the shammy Tell him he was right that looks much better Tell him you are tired working so hard does he mind cleaning up mess Thank him for his help

Sentenced for Life

I have mentioned being adult ADD before somewhere in my blog I dont feel like linking it Ha go figure (its like details man no time for details) Anywho..... dinking around with my meds and off them for a few days This is not a good thing Before I was diagnosed I was always STRESSED OUT Stressed because the ADD mind has alot of things going through it. A lot of projects to complete. A lot of new projects wanting to be started and of course, all the silly annoying things to do with living. Things like oh I don't know cooking,cleaning,working,care giving,living anything that is a pain in the @ss. Long ago stress would boil over and I would lose it in the stupidest ways Usually screaming at some poor min wage worker, doctor, customer service rep, loved one, who ever was in the way. The bad thing about an Adult with ADD is there is no filter i n our brain We are also usually clever, articulate, and brutally honest. McD employee screws up your change, scream at manager t

Life Lessons

I told you before about my Aunt Kate Here  when she made a beautiful quilt Here when she taught me how to be truly zen But I haven't told you about my Uncle Her partner while raising 8 screaming kids, frequent visits from her favorite niece(ME),and any other neighborhood kid who happen to tank a fancy to us all. Her other half was Uncle Norm For some reason to this day a lot of her kids call him Norm I don't remember how it got started but he didn't like it so it only made them call him Norm more often and I found it quite funny To me though he was always Uncle Norm Ok to be honest he was UNCKEE Norm Uncle Norm taught me many things I learned to cuss like a sailor when you are driving I learned comb overs never stay in place I learned grecian formula 1 doesnt work that well I learned that if you dont brush your teeth they will fall out but your 70 year old uncle would rather keep that last one left than let the dentist pull it. I learned you could paint

What is Wrong with YOU?

Image
You might remember, I pay my mom to clean my house 3 days a week This makes me act kind of like , oh I dont know a big sloppy teen. Today she came over and convo went like this.

Me: No I had that towel on the window to block out the sun. Her..blink blink Me: The sun shine through the curtains I wanted a nap. Her: But why is it on the floor. Me: I didnt want hubby to know and ripped it off right before he got home. Her: What is wrong with you? Indeed dear internet What is wrong with me? :)

I Love TV

Image
All the seasons are wrapping up with their finales You know you watch wayyy too much tv in the winter time when you are excited about the finales. But tonight is the Biggest Loser This one I am really excited about. I hope Ashley wins If she doesn't win I hope she gets all her weight off.

On Being a Mom

My daughters very first words were thank you She was always handing me crap when she was young Her Rattle Her stuffed pig Her Teddy and being clueless why she was handing them to me I would just say Thank you So erm those were her first words Her second was Daddy Evidently he was more fun to play with than me. My cousin's first boy named Nevin, if you asked him what his name was would proudly exclaim I am NO NEVIN NO So I suppose it could be worse. My girl also use to say everything was some SOME pointing at candy SOME reaching for your glass As in I WANT SOME! Because I use to always ask her when she pointed at things Do you want SOME?

Diva takes a Dive

I was at me fav hangout of late Walmart Who can diss Walmart? They have everything! It's all so cheap too! Instead of a the normal type Walmart cashier (I am not judging) they had a cute guy working it. He was a big flirt too. This guy had a definite MILF fetish going on Thank you DEMI! I was thoroughly enjoying myself and he seemed to be too. The woman behind me was getting quite annoyed at how slow he was scanning my many purchases I was secretly thrilled and happy I had done my hair make up nails and forgot to put my big wedding ring back on and dressed all trendy I swear I didnt look a day over 35 DONT you judge me internet! Anywhoo............ What fun. But then The stupid register asked him to compare signatures I had to show him my ID With the WORST PICTURE ever on it. Big fat big hair triple chin picture With my AGE on it Ugh I totally saw his face fall so much for check out boy fantasies Stupid whoever is in charge of the universe and their twiste

Style by ME

I mentioned earlier here that I wanted to do some redecorating this year. My house is old and crappy and a bit like the Addams family mentioned here . I dont much care what my furniture looks like I am quite pleased with myself that it matches. Well it did at one time. On second thought after only replacing a piece at a time when I absolutely have to I suppose they dont match any longer. To be honest I have every single color in my living space possible Red ,Mauve, Green ,Brown ,Tan, Blue and nicotine white. Also every color of wood. Ok never mind I am not much of a decorator or a housekeeper for that matter. If I had my way I would live in hotels and tear out the walls ALA Joe Cocker I was proud of my day bed and sent a picture to my very stylish friend who said it looked "comfortable" Hey I know a nice insult when I hear one. Yes it is, I pushed ,but what do you think of it. "It isnt something I would have but it fits in with your living room nicely."

Stop Looking at Me

This is how Goober stares at me when he catches me eating frosting out of a can Yah there is an AHA moment to be sure Not to worry Goober, I have thrown the frosting away and even joined curves yesterday PS Dear readers, I pride myself on my blog being shallow and fluff and something to laugh at. I dont really delve into deep things on my blog nor in my own life. Yes I try to be as carefree and shallow as my blog pretends to be. I dont always get away with it because some things do touch me, they strike me at the core of my being and make me ashamed at how flippant I treat my life and the things in it. This blog however: http://alzheimersandmomblog.blogspot.com/ Titled simply Mom, Me and Alzhimers humbles me on a per entry basis. If you think there are not angels walking on earth disguised as humans, read this woman' blog. Read this womans blog and see if you really have anything in your life worth complaining about. I know I don't 

Trying too Hard

Image
I have always worried a bit about trying to look too young Is this skirt too short Do these nails look stupid Are they too long Is the colour design too crazy Do I look silly in my sports car Should I tan just a little or a lot. But now I have figured out the answer Tanning today I am starting to think I may be too old. First off the girls running it are like 80 pounds They're hairstyles seem crazy They wear way too many rings and good lord cover yourself up its not that hot outside But what is really getting me thinking is ......the music They play music in there and its all like WAY TOO LOUD What is that screeching guitar sound? Good lord why are the songs so long? Yup I think I am getting old. I will just have to take my ipod and listen to my old timey music next time. Maybe an audio self help book LOL

Happy Anniversary

Yesterday was our anniversary 24 years! I have been married longer than I was single, Yikes Anyway people seem impressed and ask us how we do it So here you go dear internet just for you . The secret to a long marriage. Sometimes, two people ,after living together a long time, dont like each other ALL the TIME. They annoy each other. I know they love each other, dedicate their lives to one another, blah blah blah Yet Sometimes, they get an urge to slam a fork in the other ones head for breathing through his Stupid nose so loud. But ..... Wait for it here is the wisdom...... You continue to be polite. Pretend its an annoying coworker you have to put up with to keep your job. Pretend it is an annoying family member during the holidays. Pretend it is a random stranger who is in line behind you and making that awful noise I promise, the urge will pass and you will like each other again. He will do something sweet and you will forget all about that urge to scream Fo

Ten Signs to Quit

It has been over a year since I quit my day job and went with my at home business and I have never been happier. I like to joke that I quit my job a year before I left which is not fair to my past employer. Here are 10 Signs that you should quit your day job. You visualize sticking a pencil in the eye of a coworker every time you hear her fake booming laugh You thow quarters in the mens urinal just to see them disapeer within an hour You come in a half hour late take an extra half hour during lunch and leave an hour early You secretly hope each summons to the bosses office is your dismissal You never check your voice mail You never read your email You start throwing things away rather than file them and wonder when anyone will notice (sadly no one does) You havent done your job properly in so long you have to ring tech support because you forgot your log ins You dont know a coworker was on a two week vacation until they bring in pictures. You cry on Mondays. If any

I had to go to the court house to pay our property tax I took my mother with me so I would look doubly sad trying to struggle to pay my property tax late Poor me Taking care my poor mother Poor me dont I look sad and pathetic? They were nice anyway and didnt care I paid late Then they told me about some silly exemption that I wasnt aware existed would reduce my taxes by 1k a year and gave me some magical pink paper to apply. 20 years I have been paying 1000 dollars too much 20 years! Now who is the pathetic one? Anywho, I think our courthouse is lovely All this marble for such a little town and the vaulted ceiling We took the elavator up because mom said no way could she take those stairs. She headed for the stairs to go down on way out. Me: Dont you want to take the elavator Her: Oh no going down is easy Her: Ooooof, ugh. as she stumbles down two stairs catching herself Me: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA omg that is hilarious Me: I am going to pee my pants Her: Shut up M
