Mute Monday- Work

(I know this doesn’t fit in with the others, but I ran across it and it’s cool)

******

Friday night-
Dropped kiddos off with their dad. Browsed one of my favorite stores that I looooooooove, buying a super cute/soft/awesome pj set and skirt I have been lusting after since the beginning of the summer. PC took us to Bubba Gumps for dinner…YUMMMMM……. Hot sex.

Saturday-
Didn’t sleep in bc the puppy likes to wake up at 6a/m and never went back to sleep/bed. *sigh* PC brought home Starbucks (Mmmmmmm) Went to see Tropic Thunder…fucking hilarious movie. OMFG we *loved* it, everyone in the theater was in hysterics! Hemmed and hawed over costume ideas for Halloween.

Sunday-
Didn’t sleep in bc I woke PC up for morning nookie. ~wink~ Had hay delivered for the winter (booyah!). Hemmed and hawed over costume ideas for Halloween. Discovered my washing machine had decided to kick the bucket while mid way through a load of laundry (fuck. me.) FOUND the. perfect. costume (woot!!! …and no, I’m not telling you, it’s a surprise). Ran errands, including dropping off my wedding rings (For two weeks they need them…*humpf*) Picked up kiddos. Dropped LP at my sisters bc the nieces were dying to see each other (lol). Planning on sex later…. (again*ahem*!)

Tomorrow looks like possibly a BBQ with family. I have a shed/hen house being delivered Thursday. And there you go. The end.

Have a great Labor Day!!!

Mute Monday- School/Education

With out trying to make this a very NON Mute Monday post, I will say my quick 2 cents. Sex Education for children and teens (hell I even know some adults who should take note) is *imperative*. I mean, obviously I hope my daughter will never won’t have sex until she’s a grown adult woman who can make grown up adult decisions for herself. But as much as I can hope that. And work on instilling those values in her and expressing that to her. It’s honestly possibly unrealistic, IMO. Of course I will encourage her to wait and all that jazz. But if she is going to someday, good lord I want her to be SMART about it and have the knowledge she needs to be able to make smart decisions. So. That said. I am a HUGE fan of sex education. I’ll save the rest of what I have to say for CQW.

“I think sex education should include enhancing a girl’s sexual self-image and self-esteem, and give her the tools to say ‘no’, and ultimately ‘yes’, when the time is right.” ~Anita H. Clayton

******

Well. The kiddos begin school Wednesday. Monday is our last ‘no frill/no pressing commitments/do nothing’ day. Tuesday both have placement/assessment testing. LM begins Kindergarten, which much to my dismay is half day. Not bc I don’t love spending time with him, but bc I think Half Day K programs are retarded. But, whatever. I don’t have a choice in that. I WAS excited that he made the morning program, which is what I had requested but still you never really know…..

So he’s off to Kindergarten and LP is on to 3rd. We had the meet and greet with both kids teachers on Friday, which also included dropping off school supplies and getting desks set up. This is the first year they will be riding the bus. I’ve felt guilty shuffling LP onto the bus until now. But you have no idea how stoked I am to have both kids in the same. school. WOOT! AND with them riding the bus to school and LP home….I potentially don’t have to leave the house but once a day, to get LM from school. I swoon at the thought of all the gas we will save! I plan on coordinating my runs (bc I prefer to run my beloved route in town rather than the one along the lake by our house) with the pick up of LM. Booyah Baby!!!

Still. Wow. The school year is really here. I can’t believe the summer is coming to an end. All summer I/we were looking forward to something…. The River trip with SR and her crew, Disney World, the wedding, Jamaica…. And now, it’s all come and gone. Kind of makes me a bit melancholy. *sigh* The fact that as much as I love fall and really do like winter, I always, always miss summer. It’s my favorite season and if I had *MY* way summer would be 7months and winter only 3. Gah. But I can’t complain too much, we have (normally) pretty mild winters, long Indian Summers for fall…….

Oh well.

In other news. WE HAVE SOLVED THE CHICKEN MURDERING FOX ISSUE.
Oh Yeah Baby!
SAH-WEET.
After much research, contemplation, wasted time and money…..we purchased a Tuff Shed. It’s not here yet but will be soon enough. In the meantime LP and I have been catching and enclosing the chickens/ducks each night. Which the first night sucked ASS. Each night since has been easier and easier. We have a system down and they all seem to be getting accustomed to us accosting them each night. (((them))) But hell, little do they know I am saving their freaking little feathery LIVES. Doh.

So. There you go. PC is gone most of the week on business. Yay me….not…. :( I think this week will finally be *normal* here in blogland for me. So..yay you…or not, or whatever. LOL ~wink~

HappyMonday!!!

Mute Monday- Brand(s)

Shoe Whore.  Me.  *waving hand wildly*
And if you are going to be a whore for shoes, this is one of my favorite brands.  ~wink~

I am so seriously coveting these BJ shoes.  If I could have found them I would have snatched them up for the wedding and paid just about anything to have them.  But…:::sigh:::….they are an ‘06 shoe and can’t be found anywhere that I could see.  Damnit.

Seriously waaaaaaaaaaanting these ones too……

******

Here is where I would recap the weekend. But I’m just not feeling it tonight. 

I had to put my big goat, Tucker, down Friday.  He was 7yro, I’ve had him since he was 8weeks.  He was just like a dog.  Such an incredibly sweet animal.  He did totally annoying things like rub his one horn on things (one time my ex h’s truck….DOH!) like the barn which was basically destroying it in certain areas, he knocked down the hay stack on a routine basis, he ate my trees, ruined my flower beds….  But he was sweet and gentle and just a very kind soul.  I will miss him.  Probably similar to how his little friend will miss him. Our last remaining goat, Chloe, has been lost.  She is lonely and sad and doesn’t know what to do with herself.  He was her best friend.  *sob* 

PC’s away on business part of this week and will be returning with his son Wednesday.  You will find me furiously cleaning in his absence.

Daisy is doing awesome.  She is such a sweet, little girl.  Sleeping through the night.  Hardly any accidents in the house.  Has really taken to everyone in the family (some of the other doggies are slightly less enthusiastic…AHEM…).

PC has gotten me hooked on a show recently.  And he predicted that I would fall for the lead female character. I remember her from other shows/movies and at first wasn’t very impressed.  But damn if this chick hasn’t caused me to obsess over her.  She’s fucking hot. Something. about. her.  (and damnittoallhell if PC isn’t right…. again…..lol)

Besides spending hours in the near 100 degree temps building a hen house….wkend was busy but good and uneventful.

Happy Monday!!!

MUTE MONDAY- Science

(Anyone care to guess what this is from?  Anyone???)

(seriously, this is *all* I could think of, lol)

******

I totally forgot to mention that we took the kiddos to see Journey to the Center of the Earth
last wkend.  OMG it was so so so so awesome.  We all *loved* it.  Unfortunately we weren’t able to see the 3-D version (although after talking to my mom, who took my oldest niece, I’m afraid I would have been queasy afterwards if I had…).  They did SUCH a good job on it.

The main character chick was freaking hot.  And the entire movie I kept thinking -man she looked like someone!  But couldn’t put my finger on it…. 

(Anita Briem)

And then it hit me.
She totally reminds me of Mischa Barton!

Sunday we took the kiddos to the waterpark at Six Flags.  It was 99degrees here and made for a killer day to spend at the waterpark.  Sweet.  The only small catastrophe was this half pipe ride, where my little boy who on a good day DRIPPING WET (snort) weighs 30lbs, didn’t fair so well.  (((his little boney back)))  That ride had THE weirdest sensation of…nothingness. Erie.  *shaking head*

We also saw the new Batman movie. I won’t comment on it much bc I found it to be very slow and dark and…I just didn’t care for it much. …:::ducking:::… (I know, I know…many of you loooooooved it…)

I blew PC while on a business call.  While in a new sexy romper/nightie I had picked up, knowing full well it would drive him infuckingsane.  He dared me.  I usually pass up dares.  But wasn’t one to turn this one down.  Hehe….I love being naughty.

Got our pictures back from the other day.  O.M.F.G…they rock. I have NO idea how I will choose!  Out of like 50 pics, I might be able to narrow them down to 30.  DOH! I get full copyrights to them though.  So I promise to post some once I have the cd.  :)

Oh.  And Bunny gave me a hard time for going on and on about the doggies new hair cuts and then not posting pics.  Sorry!  So here is one.

Alrighty…  Happy Monday!!!

Mute Monday- Energy

“Everything that you are attracted to in your environment is connected to your sexual energy. Your sexual energy is connected to all of your other sensory systems - your hearing, your seeing, your sense of smell, taste and touch. It is connected to your nervous system and how you define reality. That is all connected to your sexual energy. So everything that you are attracted to is through one or another form of sexual energy.”

******

The lovely Evening tagged me a ridiculously long time ago (sorry!!!).  And I’m just now finally
brilliant enough to do it.  Oh no, not that it was that
hard to come up with them.  But bc it was that hard to narrow it down.  DOH!

1. Link the person(s) who tagged you

So….here goes.  :)

1) Hot drinks/foods have to be VERY hot.  Cold things must be VERY cold.

2) It’s all about the sauce baby. Food is just a vehicle for sauce.

3) I’m so OCD my issues have issues.

4) I really hate to talk on the phone.  I never answer my phone.  The
only two people I actually ‘talk’ to on a regular basis and for any
length of time is my sister and PC.  Having to talk on the phone,
making phone calls seriously causes me anxiety.    Obviously my calling
is not as a telemarketer…or phone sex operator.  (LOL!)

5) Things I’m insanely afraid of are: heights, claustrophobia and elevators.  I can be in high up places *as long as I feel safe*.  Weird, possibly, I know.  It takes everything with in me to get on an elevator.  It’s a childhood fear and I have worked really, really, REALLY hard to suppress my anxieties so that I can get on one when I have to.  But before entering one I always ‘assess’ it’s safety (and if anything remotely sets off my inner alarms….ok, more than normal, lol) and then practice deep breathing techniques the entire time I’m in it.

6) I’m the anti-girl when it comes to chocolate and ice cream.  I don’t
care for either and I could totally go through life with out having
either ever again.  (although I did finally try DQ’s Thin Mint Blizzard last night, after Os and TUG talked it up so much I wanted to try it, I had my five bites and was good.  But it was yummy, lol….  The Thin Mints sold me!)

Hmm….6 people.  Some people hate to be tagged, some people really look forward to it.  This went around a bit ago, I don’t even remember anymore who did it and who hadn’t.  Anyways, I choose 4 that I would like to see their answers, anyone else, free for all, just let me know you played so I can see how quirky you are:

TUG
Mojito (she’ll be home soon from her big IDAHO trip and maybe will have time to do this)
Ms. I
Elisa (have you done this???)
Covert Lover (when she gets all moved in and maybe has more time)

Happy Monday Hookers!!!

Mute Monday- Patriot/Patriotism

1

******

Things to note-

• Wall-e is a very cute movie.
• Hancock is a very good/funny movie.  Awesome twist.
• Bud Light with Lime is good (yes, this is coming from a die hard Coors Light person!).  But not as good as when it’s in those really cool special stay cold bottles that apparently you can’t really buy.
• When you bring a watermelon to a BBQ, it should be brought PRE-CUT UP.  There was a convo on the 4th regarding this.  LOL
• Even though that blue law was amended here, not a single liquor store was open on Sunday I noticed.  Hmm.  Weird.
• Apparently you need a passport to go to Jamaica.  DOH!  Thank GOD I realized this NOW….which from what I can tell was soon enough.  (fuck me, seriously)

Ok. I had way more to say, we went to the Renaissance Festival and got some cool pics but more important things *ahemPCahem* call….  ~wink~  I’ll post the rest another time. 

Happy Monday!

...kuddos to ObsessionArt….

“We’ve got barefoot ladies and tricked out mercedes
And people getting crazy on the boulevard
We’ve got classic colas and ice cold corona’s
And big pool parties in the back yard…”
~Faith Hill

Soooo not a country music fan. But this song is catchy and likable and I thought of it immediately in regards to this theme, it’s one of LP’s favorites, she loves to turn it up loud and have us sing along to it. ;)

Mute Monday- Summer

******

I’m not going to bore you all with my wedding piddly shit.  I’ve been sleeping like crap, waking up from bad, high anxiety dreams having to do with ‘worst case scenarios’ as the wedding approaches (one month almost exactly people!).  So I got a lot of little shit checked off my list.  Hopefully that will help alleviate my subconscious OCD and help me sleep a bit better.  ~*fingers crossed*~  LOL

Oh.  And btw, Get Smart is very cute, and funny, and definitely worth seeing.  Everyone in the family loved it.

Hope everyone had a kick ass weekend. 
Happy Monday!

Mute Monday- Aroma

(what I will be counting on to get me through tomorrow…we haven’t opened our eyes before 9am each morning -which is 7 local time- but have to be up and on our way to the airport at 7:30am…:::GROAN:::….)

******

We’re heading home Monday morning.  Fun filled, action packed days of the different parks (Sea World, Disney World, Epcot…), two days at the beach, shopping, late nights at the pool/spa. 

We’ve had SO. much. fun….  Recap to follow with pics (when uploaded).

I’ll be playing catch up after I greet the furbabies and get settled in. 

*muah*

Mute Monday- Old Man

Old Man Winter

“The Old Man”
This is a cool site.  It’s a fund raising site for The Wild Horse Rehabilitation and Rescue, which is a SUPER cool organization/program.  They work with BLM mustangs that have been re-assigned to new adoptive homes as well as ones that have been taken because they were in abusive homes.  This organizations fund raising helps alleviate some of the financial burden from the governments Wild Horse and Burro program.  Which is awesome.

******

Highlights of the wkend-

• Took the kids to see The Hulk.  Was fairly skeptical about how good or bad it might be and was surprised.  It was pretty good.  Edward Norton did a really good job in it.  Liv Tyler played a great character.  The violence was a bit…much.  And it was a bit slow at times.  But they wrapped it up well and I’m glad we took the kiddos. 
• PC got the lawn mowed finally.  Our 2′ of grass was only going to get that much longer while we were gone.  He rocks and gets extra kuddos for doing it on Fathers Day as well (doh)
• PC’s son and niece arrived safely
• Kiddos played awesome (for the most part)

Lowlights of the wkend-

• Some woman with her head up her ass sat through 3/4 of the Hulk movie letting her baby scream and cry acting as if she were at home chilling on her couch watching some PPV movie on tv in her FUCKING LIVING ROOM.  WTF?!  HELLO!?!? Grrr…..  (and I say 3/4 of the movie bc she was asked to leave after someone *ahemmeahem* complained)
• PC had demons eating his stomach from the inside out and he was beyond miserable most of Saturday.  (((PC)))
• One of our goats passed away.  He’d had a belly ache earlier in the week but was seeming progressively better through out the week.  But no.  :(  Poor guy….

“….I’m leavin on a jet plane.
Don’t know when I’ll be back again….”
Ok. I do, lol.  We’ll be back from DW a week from Monday.  The packing went well. I started way early this weekend AND had enough room in our bags to not stress myself out too much in regards to what we could bring.  Yay.  Wish us luck!

~xo

P.S…TFT is up.  I have no idea what type of internet connection I may have while away or the spare time I’m able to find.  I hope to be able to throw out a few posts this week.  *~*~fingers crossed~*~*  But so it’s up.  Don’t forget to stop by and check it out, spread the word
and send pictures!  (lol)  It was a great week for new and continuing contributors!

Music Monday-
I Kissed A Girl- Katy Perry

I’m on such a roll with cool/naughty girly songs recently!  Haha….

I kissed a girl and I liked it….the taste of her cherry chapstick……lalala… ~wink~

********

Mute Monday- Competition

******

LP ran in her first 5K with me this weekend.  She rocked!  She even received a reward (a GC to the dance company in town) for coming in the fastest in her age group.  I was so proud of her!  Besides the lack of tact of a couple of women making unnecessary comments and another who didn’t have a clue why MY big dog didn’t want HER big dog in her face….  We had a really good time.

LM funny….
LP: What’s the Golden Rule (insert name)? (she was quizzing him)
LM: Always wear a seat belt!
LP:………….
Us: (LOLOLOL)
LP (clearly stumped): No.  Treat others how you would like to be treated yourself.  Duh.

(In our house maybe it is….can you tell what we talk about *a lot* here????  *snort*)

Have I mentioned our family vacation that we leave for a week from today?!?!?!

*SAH-WEET!!!*

Happy Monday!!!
