Finally A New Post


This month has been busy, leaving little time to catch up on my blog.

I had a girls night our for the first time in a long time. Some friends and myself went to the Mexican restaurant, it was a lot of fun. When the Waiter asked what we wanted to drink I said Coke please but was quickly interrupted by a Friend who insisted that I wanted a daiquiris. One daiquiri led to another which led to me getting REALLY REALLY SICK but not before I muttered to my friend that she STUNK AS A GUARDIAN. You Cant take some one out who never goes out and expect them to run with the bid dawgs geeze.

I had dental surgery. I had all my wisdom teeth pulled out, 2 molars cut out, deep cleaning to gums and some bone graphs. The next day I felt good got a lot done around the house and then it hit me that night I was hurting. The next day we had a Halloween party for the kids at My sister's house. Hubby had to make 40 cupcakes after I slumped over in the recliner and began to drool (turns out pain pills make you do crazy things) the party went really good until my lovely brother in law thought it would be hilarious to turn on the fog machine right where I was standing and a tall kid was headed. The outcome of this hilarious action was the direct result of me getting head butted right in the jaw. Needless to say I ducked out of the party after that and hid in the living room. I think I am pretty much back to normal now (2 pain pill bottles later). The party turned out great and there was a big turn out.

Went to A Home and Garden's Party. My friends will appreciate this story. We had this "Get To Know You Game" you had to write down something about yourself that no body else knew. Seeing how these were all of my sister's peeps I didn't know anyone and thought I could write down anything or something that would embarrass my sister. So I took the higher road, nah only kidding I went for the embarrassment. I wrote that I have been married more times than anyone in the room. Turns out my sister has a bigger mouth than me and everyone guessed it. The humor comes in however when someone wrote I had a serious boyfriend and married someone else. Again everyone guessed me! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE! The joke was on them cause it turns out I wasn't the only wild child in the crowd. There was a sweet older lady sitting a couple of people away from me named Sarah. When she sheepishly said it was her. I was the one who jumped to my feet gave her a hive five with a GO SARAH YOU GO GIRL. Only to be told later that it was my sister's preacher's wife. My purchase came to 40 bucks the night however was priceless!!!!

The kids all had different classes they wanted to sign up for each being quite pricey so I came up with an alternative on Monday nights we now have a class (just me and the kids) This month is cooking. So far we have tackled and won the battle of sugar cookies. I even sent treat bags of the cookies to hubbies coworkers. Could have sworn I heard hubby mumble under his breath this is stupid. It was confirmed when one of his coworkers thanked me for the cookies that indeed that is what he said cause he said thanks for the cookies even though Joe said I know its stupid she made me bring 'em. Oh well, can't train them all. Next month they want to make crafts and then in January they want photography, in which I will be enlisting the help of my older sister.

Also this month I have managed to tackle two crafts for Thanksgiving. The first being collecting leaves and letting (telling) the kids to make place mats for the table. I then laminated them they turned out really good. We also tackled a little Thanksgiving Craft gift for the grandparents. It's always fun when you have one who doesn't want to do it and wants to slap it together to prove a point. It is even funner when I say WOW THAT LOOKS GREAT I HOPE GRANDMA HANGS IT SOMEWHERE SURE TO BE SEEN BY EVERYONE AND TELL HER YOU MADE IT!

My mom would be proud to know that I haven't used my dryer in 3 weeks in hopes of seeing a difference on the power bill. I wash a load a night before I go to bed and before getting ready for work I hang the load on the line to dry during the day. I am determined at her guidance to be more frugal and stop blowing money! I am taking small steps. My next big move is to see how cheap I can get the grocery bill and still feed the family. WHOO that will be fun. Little Debby is the devil anyways she goes straight to the hips.

I got the flu shot this month, and plan on taking the children to the pediatrician lining them up and getting theirs too.

I signed up for college (for myself not hubby) for next semester and hope to finally finish my degree.(while working full time, raising 5 kids and taking care of hubby)

Finally, I am getting my own office at work and am in the process of packing up and moving out. So I hope to start blogging once a week faithfully. I started out wanting to do daily but there is just know way. Hope everyone's day is more uneventful than mine.
