Hello ya'll wild women!
I just could NOT go to "work" this morning but instead just want to chat!
So here I am.
I am glad to go to an outing today where I might actually meet other human beings.
Jeff drug me out of work last night to give me a break and get me out to Thai but the restaurant was closed, boohoo! Imagine our relief when we got home and an hour later the tire was flat on the van. God is good!
I mean, who wants to change a tire in the pouring rain and dark outside a Thai restaurant?
He made me delish curry stir fry at home where I could finish up some work, watch Rach do her fashion show computer program and have a Bass ale!!!!!! (sorry legalists)
American Idol...ok, I am SO GLAD freaky gay guy is gone, politically correct or not, he needs a whippin'. Yuck.
BUT more to the point, how about that unbelievable show To Tell The Truth????
Who will confess to watching that? Lol
I turned it off immediately after spouting to the kids about the horrors of it, sent them up to bed and snuck up to my room to watch it. (careful with that measure people, lol)
Well I had to see if the girl answered yes or no to the question: "Do you have any secrets that could end your marriage?" (She said YES. I couldn't believe it!)
I couldn't put my finger on exactly why this show was so evil. I mean, everyone has secrets, skeletons, etc...and I don't believe there should be anything less than pure honesty in relationships even though we all have our dishonest moments...then I got it. Right. They are SELLING the secrets...for MONEY. (Shiver)
Can you imagine if your spouse answered YES to that question what it would be like in the HOME after that???? Ugh. I can't imagine the trouble it may cause in OTHER homes either, putting thoughts into the heads of married couples, questions, suspicions...so not glorifying!!!
During the commercial break a little logo of a sponsor came on that said "Lighthearted Entertainment" and Jeff was like...WHAT?????
Then Jeff said (hear his best, deep announcer voice) "Fox network in cooperation with SATAN brings you...To tell the truth!" ....CRACKED me up!
I totally confess it is hard not to watch....but it really disturbs my spirit so I am afraid it was a little bad toe-dip that I made but have to move on from.
Kate was doing her typical monkey hang off the back of a chair on the porch and yep, you guessed it, toppled backward...never letting go so she didn't bend and land on her bottom but instead flat on her back. Hit her head, chair landed on top of her and busted her lip and banged her DIRECTLY on the spot where she had been scraped.
We were all just sitting around the table having a nice chat and it happened so fast. Poor thing. She really could have been hurt and I am so thankful that the little monkey head just got a bump and a bruise. Man, I love that kid.
Loving my new computer and desk...though I cannot figure out the new Windows 07 Word program or Vista. Anyone an expert and want to come over and help?
Can't afford my computer guy as much anymore. Lol
Loving the trade options I have with the mag....I am being prudent and not going overboard. I actually don't have any at the moment but am considering someone to come in and do the deep cleaning once a week... I actually need to free up some more time to be with the kids.
So they can keep their regular chores but mine need taking over so that my extra time spent "working" can be restored to them. I never could do a cleaning lady though...when I was out of the house working I tried to have one but was always cleaning before she came...I think I may have to try it again though...
Anyway, lots of ways to get services...and I am grateful for that as we all know the multiple child thing combined with the entrepreneurial thing equals the I'm consistently broke thing. Lol
C-ya after we go to print!

Oh, get the cleaning person. If it means you have more time enjoying the kids then it is worth it. This is why I like having a sitter come for 4 hours a week. I do MY chores without yelling at them to behave, there is no whining and I can accomplish twice as much without them around. Yes, they are cute and I love them, but really if I can do something for myself to make my life with them more relaxing I'm doing it. Oh, by the way, my mom runs a housecleaning business with a friend and they get a real kick out of people who clean before they get there.
Who is the gay guy from AI? I thought there were 2 so I am going to have to look this up. I actually despise the guy who looks like a girl and had a purple streak in his hair and did a vomit-inducing rendition of one of the best 80's songs ever (Tainted Love), so I hope it is him. Seriously, I was screaming at the t.v. and my kids were laughing at me. Could not watch it after that.
Yes, it was the Tainted Love guy!
The girls had a GREAT time yesterday too...THANKS! (and I hope they didn't wreck the joint)
;)
Your welcome and nothing was wrecked. Mine had a great time as well. Kate keeps saying that there wasn't a single second of "boringness." Don't think that's a word. And so glad that annoying purple headed guy is out!
Am I the only one who liked the purple headed guy? I thought he had spunk and was funny--is it official that he is gay?
Tif- are you being serious??? Lol
That is SOOOO cute and reminds me of when I was little and LOVED Liberace and my "highly functional" Mother decided to tell me he was gay. (I was maybe seven)
I was crushed.
Sorry. :(
It is difficult to wear a few more hats at once, isn't it? Personally, I have never had a cleaning lady, but think I have deserved it many times. I guess with the office work and the farming, hubby just has to understand that our house will never be perfect. But I'm still working on improvement, with more help from my aging kids.
Can I tell you how much I HATE VISTA???? Okay, so I will not be able to you how to work word...
On the other hand, desperate Ho's isn't looking too bad compared to Tell the Truth, huh??
And I am all for the cleaner...I think that should be negotiated before the birth of child #3..Like maybe a mandate from the state. Maybe we tack that into our outrageous property taxes?
