Playing the Station

Temp: 36 Degrees

I understand why they call it a station cuz you sit and play and play. I mean I have my pop next to me the remote some snacks and yeah it's a station all ready to play some games that I can't save cuz I don't have a memory card yet and just wasted an hour playing this role playing game then died. Like I'm going to start that all over again.. that's how all the games we have right now are. Gotta get a memory card I guess this weekend. Pretty fun games.. I just have to get all the role playing games I can get because they are my favorite. My Son and Hubs like the battle racing car games and sports games. They are cool too but I'd rather a long year long drawn out game fun. Everyone always says the final fantasy games are good I'd like to get one I know there is 12 or so many.. do you have to start with #1.. or can you skip to say 10?

My brothers game I played is called Okage. Dumb so far like I said played an hour and finally got some action then died.

I watched the bachorlette tonight on ABC. OK I didn't see any other episodes before this season finalle.. but thought OK what a slut.. in a way. I mean and the guys.. how could you want a woman who's making out one night with another guy and the next with say you leading them both on that they might be the lucky one to marry her.. that you've only known for a few weeks. And if I were the woman would really wonder what are these guys after anyways.. coming onto a show to get married... can't they find their own woman? I don't know just seems funny.. not that it didn't intrigue me enough to watch it I did.. and in the end was happy she did look happy and in love and so did the guy.. I wish them all the luck.. I guess it would be hard to be that lady.. I mean not able to lead on to anyman her feelings or anything.. like a game. Either way it's twisted to me.

This has been the longest 3 days off work in say 3 months. I havn't gone anywhere since Monday. I've been out to walk the dog and play outside with the kids and made 2 snowmen. But out in my vehicle Nope.. and like Monday my phone didn't ring once all day. How nice. And that day I did all my chores so I've just been relaxing round playing with the kids and playing cards with J and watching movies and other bumming around stuff. Fun but almost bored 2nite. Nothing else on TV and once the kids were in bed at 830 it's like Hummm what to do ??? Only 100 hours till I fall alseep.

I was thinking I'd redo my family webpage new pictures a new look. Just can't get into it. My grandparents got back today at 530 and picked up little scruffy who hopped a mile high once she seen my grandma. They had a lot of fun didn't stay long wanted to get home I think. Gave each the kids a little something from FL and $20 for dog sitting. Come on like I needed money to babysit her puppy. I'm just going to turn around and spend the $20 at Hardees on gift certificates for all the times they pop by and watch the kids.

Doggy World

Temp: 39 Degrees

Kids are taking long nap today.. I got a lot done this afternoon house is clean, Made Fudge, and Choc no bake cookies and choc pudding. Do you think I'm in the mood for Choc? I can't even eat it but all sounded so good. I did snatch up a spoonful of cookie.

BelleI feel like I'm the DogLady. I'm dog sitting for my grandparents doggie a yorkshire terrirer she weighs about 8 lbs.. little thing scruffy but she's been with us for the last 3 weeks.. we have a springer spaniel that's almost 13 months and all afternoon we've had a male little doggie I can't say what breed he is but I'd guess about 15lbs. My springer isn't that big but a good medium sized dog to these little ones weighing approx 38lbs on her 1st Bday.

So Our yard is totally fenced in. But the bottom bracket of our one gate did get broke off this winter when the snow built up and ice around it and my son forced it open breaking a piece off the bottom off. I sopose it's enough room for this little doggie to get thru. So I went out and got the doggie out of the yard and put up a barrior I thought would keep him out. About 30 minutes later he was back in. Kitty & Baby BelleTrying to hump my poor puppy who's way taller than this dog and he's like riding her back leg. I felt so bad and embarrassed for her she's like lets play and trying to bit him and rolling around and he's a horn-doggy.

He's a friendly little pup and cute I don't know who's he is. I know most dogs in the area so this one's puzzeling me. He has a collar but no tags with names or city ID? I think when my son gets home he'll maybe know since he does the paper route around here and knows most dogs. My Kitty is getting a chuckle out of all the doggies. He's watching and I have the patio door open a crack cuz it's so hot out and he'll go out ( He thinks he's a dog) and rub up on the new doggie and that dog doesn't know what to think. Funny. I'm calling this new doggie Timmy. Looks like a Timmy.

Awareness

Temp: 36 Degrees

My most enjoyable read of blogs is Big Pink Cookie - Taking the Blah out of the Blog. She always has cute topics and real life experiences and descibes them so well. Hers is also one of the 1st blogs I ever read and what inspired me to want to blog. Her comments recently on her 10 year old son using her credit card to visit a porn site has opened my eyes more and realized there are things I can do and say to insure my son 11, does not get the wrong idea of sex and steps I can take and things I can do.

I do feel natural curiosity is a part of growing up and feelings for things is normal. I have a wonderfully open relationship with my son and want to always "keep" that. I know there will be times we won't see eye to eye on everything, but want to be sure to install values on certain things and topics especially on that subject. Or at least make it known I know a little about how he's feelings and some things are OK. Hummm part of motherhood that's scarey. I ask hubs on the subject and he's so shy on it and I ask how did you feel ect. at that age.. and he's like I don't remember. Not much help on that side. Wonder what all this spyware talk was? Never heard of it. Something about tracks every keystroke on your keyboard? I just don't want him looking at somethings thinking it's the normal I mean some porn sites have like animals.. OMG how would I ever explain that?????

Fade - MP3

FADE by Staind
You can click on the title to download and listen to the clip yourself if you'd like. Note: I only leave each song on the site for about a week so catch it when ya can. You can find the lyrics below. Unlike most songs I pick they usually hold some meaning for me this one really doesn't. I sopose it may a bit considering I picked it... I just think the singers voice is so sexy and clear I like to sing along. The words are good too.

I try to breathe
Memories overtaking me
I try to face them but
The thought is too much to conceive

I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became 'cause

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

So where were you?
When all this I was going through
You never took the time
To ask me just what you could do

I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became 'cause

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

I never meant to fade...
Away

I NEVER MEANT TO FADE

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

I try to breathe...

HER JOKES kinda funny website if ya need a laugh

Meatloaf

Last night for supper I made meatloaf. I've never made it before and I remember as a child I hated it. My mom would make it all the time and make me sit there until I ate it all and I hated it. I don't think I've ate it since I was probably 14. But hubs said he wanted that. So I got out some cookbooks and looked online and whipped up my own version of meatloaf with mushrooms and onions and a dash or this and that an egg and some oatmeal and bread crumbs.. Smelled and looked pretty good. I made the sauce with some Tomato sauce, brown sugar, vinegar water and some spices. And basted it on top while it was cooking. Smelled good. I didn't know how to bake it. But most recipes said an hour at 350.

So an hour passed OK I thought it was pretty big loaf so another 1/2 hour. 2 hours passed I cut into it and raw yet in the middle. Yuck. I thought OK maybe I should've tin-foiled the loaf pan when baking to speed up the process. So I did that and in the mean time whipped up something else for dinner cuz kids were starving and going crazy. I figured we could re-warm up the load and eat it 2nite warmed up. So I put it back in to finish ere off. About 8 last night I thought OMG I forgot about that loaf. I thought for sure it would be burnt black but looked good. I cut out a little piece and ate it Nummmy. Will be good for supper 2nite. So it only took 3 1/2 hours to bake the thing? That isn't right is it?

New Blog

Temp: 21 Degrees

Last night I whipped up a new blog just simple and a place for me to put all those funny emails and jokes and pictures you get or find. you can get to it by clicking on the left side of this page under Jokes n such or just Click Here to get to the page also.

I havn't done much of anything but the household stuff the past 24 hours. Spent yesterday cleaning and getting almost all them done for the week, and laying around with my daughter who was sick. She had a fever Sun night. Nothing else just a little temp around 100 or so and spiked up a little again last night. But this morning she's cool and feeling good. It was so nice out yesterday wish she felt better this all this snow and above 30 degrees I wanted to bundle her up and take her for a sled ride while walking the dog.. but didn't get the chance with her sick. Maybe today when J gets home from school she'll be able to go play a little. Snow great for making snowmen right now.

The kids havn't had much time to play in the snow this year. Never got enough until that last storm a couple weeks ago.. but it's been so chilly but with this mini warm up I'd like to go play.

My Horoscope today:
A Tuesday during which almost nothing you start will lead to substance, so take advantage of your social standing and go out to play or see a movie instead of worrying about the details regarding career changes.

GO PLAY.. cool and why start anything cuz it says it won't amount to anything anyways.. LOL good excuse to just play all day! K gotta go make some lunch. Mac and cheese and hamburgers.. my daughter fav pick.. or hotdogs.

One Track Minded

J got 2nd at wrestling today. My aunt ended up babysitting which was cool hubs building her a coat rack hanger thing like he made for us a couple weeks ago.. only took me a year and 1/2 for him to make me this one.. and wants to make her one for all the times she's helped out here and there with things. That's cool. Work was OK got off 930 and went up the hill to play darts and I actually won both games we shoot ! wow.. lucky streak even hit 3 50's. Had 2 drinks and hubs called said my baby girl has fever 101. So I'm up until 2 then I'll give her another dose of tylenol. Wonder if she doesn't have what J had a week and 1/2 ago. Fever but nothing else really. Cuz she ate great today which should mean her throat isn't sore and she doesn' t have a stuffy nose or a cough either. And not teething anymore. Nice with kids they bounce outta it really fast.

I was kidna glad hubs called cuz sure I would've ended up somewhere else 2nite otherwise well not sure.. but thought crossed my mind. More crosses my mind with someone else... that's cuz I'm more than just sexually attracked to them and makes it so much more fun. It's really windy outside. My bro and I talked a lot 2nite he's dreading going home alone now he said. Told him he's welcome here whenever as always.. he said thanks. Said kinda regreted not getting married kinda shocked me a bit. His new band member is really young but good I guess and he's excited wants to get band going again. Wonder if this person knows how bad they turn me on. I get the next 3 nite off but may be a dart sub for someone tues nite. I should go wake hubs. It's hard to believe it's my last week for water areobics 6 weeks already... missed a few nights but went a few extras on my own too. Windy out. OK inbetween every thought I'm thinking sex.. so I'm going to go. Nite!

Got home from work last night and stayed up and yacked with my bro who's staying here til mon about the music industry and war politics until 4am. Boss and I had talk about it b4 I left and got me thinking and funny me and bro also agree music isn't what it used to be.. and maybe it's cuz when we were young and having new experiences the music we heard in the era of time was new to us and good cuz we would relate certain situations and feelings to the songs and now it's just maybe our lives are boring and such that it's not as fun anymore LMAO I don't know it was funny. Then he came back from the grocery store this morning and says I remember when a bottle of pop was like 75 Cents.. now it's a buck 25. then he says Oh yeah I'm getting old. LOL@him.

Fun to sit up and talk to someone even if I regreted staying up so late when I had to get up at 9 but I miss talking to people. I mean a real converstation. Maybe my job and drunk talking shit all the time or same how's the fishing or what's new or weather talk gets old. I miss the ole fire ya up discussions. Hubs is not a talker nor a listener and just agrees with everything I say. Kinda sucks he just doesn't think much for himself I think and easily persuaded into anything even at work sometimes he comes home all pissy about a co-worker and I ask him did they do something personal to you.. how does it effect you personally .. and it doesn't. it's just that someone else there is bitching about something and then he does. LMAO crazy.

Sunday fun day.. I feel more like a sunday snoozy day and I should take a little nap before work. Just laid the kids down. J & Hubs wrestling today in town 70 miles away. My aunt just called my cuz will be on news tonight in some greenhouse she's in FFA. I laugh they are twins and in funny stuff like that. She said she's really scared having surgery a kidney bioposy on tuesday in SF told her I'd say a prayer for her and said she's more nervous about this than anything she's had done. Feel bad for her.. wish her the best and hopefully results will show something other than what these other tests are saying.

My Grandparents have been gone to FL for awhile now can't remember when they said they were coming home. Miss them they are so cute. Hope 2nite at work goes smoother than last night. I got little huffy last night at work at one person. I was making a hot drink and had to run in back to get hot choc and a waitress starts yelling she need a tom collins and cc coke and 2 Mick Goldens.. and I get pissy cuz Come on.. I'm in the middle of making something and I'm a mile from the bar and like I'm going to remember or jump and run when I'm in the middle of something else. And I turn around and boss lady says Amy your needed in the bar get in there I'll get what you need. And I had it all but just dropped it and said kinda fuck it OK.. so I ran to the bar expecting a 100 people needing me or somebody needs to pay.. and there is no one there.. nothing for me to do.. I looked at the counter with the drinks I made 10 min ago that the waitress was yelling about it the waitress stations and thought WTF???

They've been made and sitting there for a good 5 min. already.. so for the waitress to even say anything up there pissed me off. Impatient and more upsetting was they were made awhile ago.. I don't yell at them Your drinks have been sitting up there melting for 10 min. Be different if I was standing around but I was in the middle of making something anyways.. I wouildn't leave for a sec if I didn't feel comfortable but these people were waiting for 10 min at a booth no one seen them and upset and then I had other drinks and I sopose it was 15 min before she got her hot drink..or maybe 20. I wouldn't be back there if it wasn't emergency I do things in the way I feel is best.. and think my judgement is correct under the busy circumstances. I always put the customers 1st with the waitresses. Later boss lady appolgized for yelling at me.. and funny thing was I didn't even recall her comments or what she musta felt like yelling cuz I didn't think she did. Funny. I do know she came out 10 min after I already took the drink out 20 min after the order.. with some more hot choc and I did say I was back there cuz I needed to be.. for an order that was waiting forever not cuz I was leaving the bar. Hope I didn't make her feel bad. Everyone at work is funny under pressure and sure say things heated and not thinking I just don't like to be that kinda person. It makes me feel more like shit than anything and I just wanted to throw my hands up and say have at it and walk out. I do everything to the best of my ability and try to give my 110% when it's busy but this one waitress gets on my nerves like you can't imagine with her demands I just wanna say you want it .. you get it. If you can't wait like the rest of them and wait your fair turn well tuff shit.. LMAO I give up.

After work and all and before I'm perfectly fine with her. I am sure it's just she's busy and in turn says things in the heat of it as well. Maybe I just can't take it anymore and need to tell her like Brandi said last night Your not superwoman. Yeah ... I'm Wonderwoman. J/K. That's the difference between working in back like say the kitchen and being busy and can show more emotions but behind the bar in the eye of the public and customers you have to smile and be happy and not let them not feel that everything isn't under controll. Presentation of everything and one is important I feel. And somenights to feel overwhelmed and snotty waitresses yelling out drinks to me like that when I had 100 b4 her let alone they were already made just didn't make me happy. And I hope no one seen that.

If I was waitressing and I ordered a hamburger and fries. I would throw my ticket up in the kitchen and while they're making 20 steaks and pastas and yell I need a hamburger implying NOW.. and go grab the fries myself and flip the burgers myself. And if she or I needed a rush on something I would say I forgot this drink .. I'd drop everything and make that quick nowing the people at the table need it more than being she forgot.. blah blah blah. Different working with Brandi too cuz she doesn't write any drink orders down for me.. she doesn't even know what they drink she just says I need a Jim drink or a John drink.. or a Dave drink. and will be way on the other side and yell them out in the middle of my making another set of drinks for someone else then I have to hunt her down and ask her again and again and then she forgot and would come back again and do the same thing. LOL working the bar is different she did awesome I thought just would be easier and next time I will tell her if she put up a list or stood by the waitress station and waited and then told me.. LOL Crazy Oh well gotta vent a little not that I'm upset or anything just had to write what I feel to get it out.

OMG my babysitter called and is out snowmobiling and won't make it in time to babysit now so I can go to work. That really pisses me off. I called 4 other people I know and my daycare lady and no one can. Can't take them to work with me behind the bar and J is wresting an hour and 1/2 from here. Errrrr what do I do??? My Cuz is in Brkings won't be back til 6ish and I guess I could call my bro at band practice and ask if i can drop them off but would blast out their tiny little ear drums. That won't work. Frickin crap. I gotta keep calling around. Can't get ahold of hubs on cell cuz he's in gym and it's not reaching or something.. and I don't think he knows how to use the voice mail on the cell hopefully he will notice the beep that I left one and just call. Maybe J could hitch a ride with another kid home and hubs will just have to leave for home now. Grrrr yickes!
