Did you know that life is strange, life is sad. Life isn't normal and life makes me mad. But no matter how much I hate it... life must go on. When I have a sore spot, When I hit my head. When I have an earrache, When I could be dead. No matter how much I hate it.. life must go on. Cha, cha, cha. You've got it in ya.. I know you can do it. Write away!!!!
Now that the heartrate is (semi) back to normal and things have calmed down... got a great one to tell. Last Wednesday afternoon while at work, I heard a dog bark outside. I work on the second floor of a two story building with a door at either end of the building. We use the front one and keep the back one locked. Never use it. It's at the other end of th
oh yes.... the jolt of lightning must have killed a few brain cells... that would be nine lives
... then what about people? Because I think I used one up this past weekend. We had a nice, typical thunderstorm on Saturday. Steady rain, few booms in between. Around 11, all had stopped and was quiet. The sun was even beginning to show. Then the dog began barking. My neighbor from across the street was heading over. A large bag in hand. I ended up closing the f
Hmmm..... how about laminate flooring for the living room, four new doors (bedrooms, closet and bathroom), new trim for all doorways, a new toilet, a trash can, a tool box, non-skid mats for basement steps and a hose and reel for outdoors. Oh.. wait... that's MY list! 29 and holding!!!
My child ended up cutting it out of her hair. Couldn't wait for it to wear out or grow out. It's a light color. Just tell everyone it stressed you so bad you went grey (I still have some in mine too if it makes you feel better)
We may not have a lot of money. We may not be famous. But gosh golly darnit... I feel richer then most just with the family I have and I wouldn't trade shoes with anyone. The help and support that comes at times most needed is beyond words. And I must brag, I've never seen a better looking closet
There are so many superstitions... Don't walk under a ladder; If you break a mirror you have bad luck for seven years; it is bad luck if a black cat crosses your path (hmm... I own a black cat.... perhaps that explains the path of my life??); if you spill salt, throw it over your shoulder; Don't cross your eyes or they'll stay that way (a real popular one to tell kids
They did actually talk about Jerred and his Subway diet as well. His girlfriend is a dietician so she got him "healthy" again. He was in the beginning stages of Liver failure by the third week.
A lady at work was telling me about a renting and watching supersize Me and curiosity got the better of me so I went and rented it. Quite an interesting documentary. In short, it's about a guy who eats McDonalds three times/day for a full month and it followed him day by day and what was happening. He also ordered the supersize. He had doctors and specialists monitori
I can relate in every sense. I suffer from bad allergies and this time of the year is the worst. And it seems my 11-year old has been blessed/cursed with the same ailments. It is also cold season and as we sit here and suffer, we play the medication game trying to figure out if it is a cold or allergies. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure it out until it is too late. Once the ears start throbbing, it's a cold/infection and time for the Dr app
How's the tv?
Yes. It has been awhile since I took the drivers ed classes that we as teenagers are excited for. But I am beginning to wonder if I need to re-take them because laws seems to have changed since my day. But, in not solely picking on the new drivers of this generation, I must have taken the wrong class because drivers of my generation as well as before mine also took a
No. I doubt the kid did it. He was too little and was in a buggy.
Had to go to the store tonight after leaving the movie theatre. Bought 5 storage containers yesterday and the blonde in me only got 5 lids. Well, while at the store, I remembered I needed one other item so I got that and was standing in the checkout. In front of me was a mom and her son. About 4 years old or so. Well, the boy was sitting on two DVDs. I watched as the
Great cause to donate for and easy donation to do. You don't like the new haircut, it'll grow back and you can try something different.
Awww.... you aren't a freeloader. I would think of it more as "lucky". Those you get goodies from, you contribute to as well. Girl Scout cookie season isn't back until the Springtime unfortunately (just b4 Easter). Heck, I still have boxes of them showing up in both my fridge and freezer.. lol. Keep getting the freebies while ya can. Although.. I am still jealous about the Bahamas thing...
I don't know. Maybe it's me. Maybe I'm overreacting too much. I don't think I am though. Today is my child's birthday party for her friends. She chose to have it at a local roller rink. $8 a child. Includes skating, pizza, pop and party. They pay $2 extra if they want roller blades. She invited 14 friends. Well,,, of these 14 friends invited, three parents have called
I read your review and took your advice and rented it. Tissues and all. It was wonderful. A little dark perhaps (for lack of a better word) but wonderful. Somewhat like the movie "Angela's Ashes" only not as sad and depressing. It isn't due back until tomorrow and I think if I can find the time, I may find myself watching it one more time. And it is a good thing that first impressions aren't always correct. I really had the wrong idea of the neighbor a
No. I don't think she intentionally lied to me about the grade. I guess there was a glitch in the computer system the beginning of the school year and she truly did think it was a wrong grade. And when I told her which assignments were missing, she got somewhat quiet. Almost like I was refreshing her memory on it.
Those were great. Made for a fun chuckle. Thx
Being "different"... story of my life. No, I'm not a white person in Korea. And I'd like to think that I'm just another face in the crowd. But, anywhere in public I go, I turn heads. I am only 4'7". And yes, an adult. For quite awhile it bothered me. The comments, the snickers, the laughs. But, as I told my daughter when she commented about it once, I've come to enjoy it. Put me and an "average joe" in a crowded public place... I'm the one people will
I think what is most frustrating is that I know she can get good grades. This is the first C- she's had. It's always been A's and B's. It's that she isn't even bothering to do or to turn in the work once it is done (combination of both). Don't get me wrong, I am VERY proud of her and tell her so. Her grades are so much better then mine were. Her focus is mostly on boys and it's hard to divert that. I told her that her punishment is coming up with a sol
I guess I am one of those overprotective parents then. My child is nearly 11 and I still won't let her see Rated R movies. I have a hard time with some of the everyday magazine ads even. Sometimes I wonder what it is that parents are thinking and wonder if I'm the one who's old fashioned and out-dated. But, I will continue to be so. Regardless.
Well, it's the dreaded end of school year. Report card time. My child's report card arrives in the mail last week. All A's with the exception of one C-. Reading class. She says it "HAS" to be a computer error. So, being the optimistic parent I am, I attempt to reach her teacher. Do you know how hard it is to find a teacher after a school year is over?? Finally, after
