Thought 4 my Thursday

Now we know why rain coats are yellow!!!!

Question 4 you...on WHATabout ME WEDNESDAY

Do you ever feel jealous about anything...if so how do you deal with your jealousy?


*I do suffer from that little green monster....it doesn't make me do crazy things it usually just gets the best of me and makes me hurt inside...and if I say anything to the one I love about what Im feeling at the moment then it usually ends up hurting him inside....its a horrible thing to go thru and I truly hope one day Im able to put that green monster to rest!!*

Last night decided it was time to finally get the bikes back out and start riding again. So Joshy, Dev and I went for an hour bike ride. I knew that my legs and my hiney was going to be feeling the pain.....omg they need to cushion those seats more!!!! But anyway we go for our ride and of course about 30 minutes into it Im the one already saying how bad my legs are hurting, and its really burning in my knees. Joshys answer to this is just don't think about it...oh ok why didn't I think of that!!!! As if that's actually going to work...but none the less we continue and even though I'm feeling the "burn" I'm glad we are back at this again!...that is until we got home. I do not know what the hell happened but for some god forsaken reason I had the worse pain ever up in my shoulders and between my shoulder blades...so bad that it kept me awake all night long...along with a wonderful leg cramp that kept trying its best to take over my leg during the night!!! I am now awake and should be feeling great cuz I dont have any babysitting kids today...I'm actually going to get my hair colored and cut today and I'm stuck with the worlds worse pain in my right shoulder blade that shoots up into my neck. I move extremely slow and I'm thinking this is going to be real interesting going to get my hair done today. For the life of me I can not understand how an innocent bike ride could leave such results...after all its not like we were riding on rough terrain, no slopes, I didn't fall over...nothing just an innocent bike ride!!! Good lord is this just another sign of how old and out of shape I am!?!?! I can harldly wait to see what tonights bike ride brings!!

Toons 4 my Tuesday

Its the little things

My oldest son Kody, lives in a town 50 miles from me, hes working full time now that he is on summer break from college so on my birthday (last Wednesday) he wasn't able to come home and see me. So he called yesterday and asked what I was doing and said he was headed home for awhile to spend some time with me. He got here in time for supper (boys always have a way of knowing exactly what time its ready..hehe) we all sat around the table and ate and talked. After dinner he and I went outside and I just listened to him talk. I love those moments, the times he just opens up and starts talking to me about whats been going on in his life...with work, and friends, girls, the crazy things that happen at some of their parties...he and I have a bond that I hope never goes away.I miss him so much at times...it was really hard when my older boys grew up and graduated high school and left for college, its one of those times in life that you are so proud of them for making choices and doing what they want and yet you feel heartbroken in a sense ...have a feeling of they don't need me anymore come over you. As mom I worry that when the day comes he gets serious with a girl that she might not like the closeness that the two of us have. I hope that's not the case because I would miss my son so much if he ever changed the way that he is. Having him just call me up and start talking because hes bored..or he wants to just vent...sometimes because he wants my opinion on things...or even just because he wants to see how things are going here are things I would miss dearly. Raising kids is not always easy... though I've got 2 in college I still have one at home with a few years to go before he graduates (hes only 11) and though there have been those really hard times when you feel like you just want to scream...ok maybe beat them....there comes those times in life when they can do the simplest of things and you just realize that no matter what you wouldn't want it any other way!!! Having him come spend his Sunday with me was awesome...and those are the moments I cherish the most!!!

Music 4 my Monday

Im in the mood for some "Buckcherry"...so here ya go

Random Pictures

I haven't done this for awhile....sorry Tom....with my busy days I feel like there is nothing too exciting to take a picture of....but the other day when the rain stopped coming down for a bit...I decided to go out and get a few shots of just some of the flowers I have growing...so now I have something to post for your random picture theme..I love flowers...and they sure love all the rain we've been getting!!!!

Favorite 4 my Friday

This has become my favorite thing to do when I've got nothing else going on...

just sit out back on the deck and watch my garden become
the favorite place to hang out!!!

Thought 4 Thursday

Thank you to everyone that sent Happy birthday comments and emails to me...you guys made me feel so very special...and made turning 41 not seem so bad after all!! I had a great day...lots of phone calls...lots of cards and gifts..."joshy" took me out to eat and even baked me a birthday cake!!! It was yummmmmmy!!!!! Anyway my thought for today is actually about getting older

The older I get, I've realized that there’s a lot to be learned if you keep an open mind, an open spirit. There’s wisdom out there. I’ve learned patience,I finally realized that things don’t happen overnight And I’ve learned to not try to make things happen but to just let them happen and accept them. When you’re young you try to control everything; that’s where having life experience comes in. You find things that work and things that don’t work. It’s simple. You keep what works and drop what doesn’t. Over the years I’ve learned to just go with my instincts and trust them. The experience of living certainly has taught me something. Has it you?

What about me 4 Wednesday

Today is my birthday...Im 41
How did this happen??? How on earth did I get this old????

Well as the song goes...its my party and I'll cry if I want to!!!!!!




"Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional."

"Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternative."

"There is always a lot to be thankful for, if you take the time to look. For example, I'm sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt"

question for you

What do you think would be the hardest thing for you to give up?

the insane ex

This is my bitchy side coming out...just warning you..if you cant take it then go no further!!!! "Joshys" boys live in Florida with their mom...he talks to them a couple times a week...on Sunday the boys told him that they went to the beach and had some pictures so" joshy" told them to email him some pics of the two of them. Well of course for whatever reasons the "biatch" has to be a part of everything so she takes it upon herself to email pics instead...which would be perfectly fine...after all "joshy" just wants to see some pics of his boys so it really makes no difference who sends them...right???? Well I'm the one that got the email....oh sure there were pictures of the boys...of course none that were nice face pics so you could actually see it was them...but none the less pictures of his boys....but as I scrolled down further...oh that's nice she has sent us a nice big picture her and her boyfriend (which were good face shots so you could see it was them unlike the ones she sent of the boys)..well isn't that just peachy!!!! Why on earth did she send us this???? We could use it for target practice???? scare the mice away??? She sent these pictures not only to us but also to" joshys" parents...who from what Ive gathered in the last 2 1/2 years that Ive been with" joshy" can not stand this woman....so it leaves me wondering just how crazy must one be to do something like this??? and what on earth would be the reason behind it????? I mean this is the woman that cheated on "joshy" when they were married hence why they are no longer married ... she is now on guy number who knows while "joshy" and I have remained together.....I don't know what makes people do some of the things they do but I swear....
SOME PEOPLE ARE SO FRIKKIN STUPID!!!!!

Question for you???

What would your best friend say makes you great?

This week-end in my little town of 4.000 we had city wide garage sales and there were 62 sales going on!!!!! We picked up a cd burner for the computer, ( yes it works Josh already installed it and burned some music with it),a new computer desk thats big and has shelves and a door, way better then the one we have right now, a shepards hook for the bird feeder, some movies, some cool home decor items, an awesome BIG telescope with stand (josh has been wanting one for a long time so he was super excited about this find!!) , a cd boombox with detachable speakers so we can use it out on the deck this summer, and some toys for the kids I babysit..
all for under $100!!!!! NOW THAT'S A DEAL!!!!

Random pictures

Josh has to drive 50 miles to work each day and on his way he will sometimes take pictures with his phone of the sunrise and send them to me....I think its so sweet cuz he usually sends sweet little text telling me how its as beautiful as me..warms my heart and makes me smile...what an awesome way to start my day!!!!

Random things that irritate me

People who have rules that they don't follow themselves

Those people who just HAVE to pull out in front of you (when nobody's behind you)
. . . . then go really friggin slow

those irritating people who keep inching forward at red lights then don't go when the damned thing turns green!

Networks who won't keep a show in the same time slot for any amount of time then cancel it because it can't find an audience (well duh we can't find it!!)

Instructions on shampoo bottles

DJ's who keep talking when the song is playing

Anybody who drives slower than me

Those damn semi-transparent network logos that take up the bottom 1/4 of the TV screen

Braille instructions at drive up teller machines. If a person is blind, why the hell would they be driving?

The media

People who gossip too much

People who lose 100+ pounds on the subway diet (yeah right)

The Internet ads that make you hit a target to "win".

When you go past the time you want to set the alarm clock to.

People who stop in the middle of the isle....right in front of you

When you forget what you were going to say

People who don't appreciate what you do for them

When someone is about to tell you something then goes "no wait, never mind"

When you bite your tongue

When a chip bag is half filled with air

Reality tv shows

People who sing a song but don't know the words

People who wear sunglasses inside

Those emails that offer ways to get out of debt, or "great offers on mortgages"

When there are no spots in a parking lot

When you are IMing and someone IMs you and you type in that IM instead of the intended one. Even worse if you send the message to the wrong person

Crappy remixes of old songs

When you are in a hurry and you hit every red light, and get behind every slow car.

When people say,"Can I ask you a question?" This is clearly a question, leaving you no options, as they have already asked you a question

Daylight savings

Dandelions

When, at the movies, the butter only goes on the top layer of the popcorn

When you are drinking something, and it "goes down the wrong pipe"

When your favorite pen runs out of ink

Squirrels that just run right onto the road

When you drive by a dead skunk

When you burn your tongue

Richard Simmons

When you wait at the doctors office for an hour, and see the doctor for 5 minutes

When you dial a number, and you get that loud screeching noise

Movies with subtitles

People who don't leave messages.

When a candy bar melts in the wrapper

Illegal immigrants

When something really irritates you and there is not a damn thing you can do to change it!!!!!

Thought 4 Thursday

Here's something to think about:

Blindfolded and walking alone. That’s what most of us feel in a lifetime full of major risks and decisions. It might seem safer to remain stagnant. But isn’t it more fulfilling if despite the fear of falling, steps were taken? In the end, losing and mistake won’t count. What matters most is the person we turned out to be....not naive but wise and beautifully molded by experiences.

Question for you????

What is your favorite "old school" video game???

What about me 4 Wednesday

A week from today is my birthday...Im already feeling older.....my age never used to bother me but for some reason after I hit a "certain" age it started getting to me real bad...I was going to put a post up letting you guys guess how old you think Im going to be....but I got afraid that everyone would guess me older than I am and I'd only end up feeling worse.....does anyone else have this problem??? Do you hate not so much that your getting older but that you feel you are starting to show that you are......do you think it effects women more than men?????

Question for you????

When you first started blogging....who was your first follower...and do they still follow you??

Toons 4 Tuesday

My 1 day employment

So after landing my new job as a Wal-Mart greeter,
a good find for many retirees,
I lasted less than a day...... About two hours into my first day on the job a very loud,
unattractive, mean-acting woman walked into the store with her two kids,
yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance. As I had been instructed, I said pleasantly, 'Good morning and welcome to Wal-Mart.
Nice children you have there. Are they twins?'
The ugly woman stopped yelling long enough to say,
'Hell no, they ain't twins. The oldest one's 9, and the other one's 7.
Why the hell would you think they're twins? Are you blind, or just stupid?' So I replied, ‘I’m neither blind nor stupid, Ma'am,
I just couldn't believe someone slept with you twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart.' My supervisor said I probably wasn't cut out for this line of work.

QUESTION FOR YOU???

Do you do anything now that you're an adult...that you swore when you was younger you would never do when you grew up???

Here is a very short story....

Man driving down road.
Woman driving up same road.
They pass each other.
The woman yells out the window, PIG!
Man yells out window, BITCH!
Man rounds next curve.
Man crashes into a HUGE PIG in middle of road and dies.

Thought For The Day:
If men would just listen!!!!
