10 Things

I snagged this from Drama Queen Confessions - I hope she doesn't mind. I was gonna steal something from Confessions of the Overdressed, but, I don't think I can come up with 100 reasons as to why I love shoes. I do love shoes, but with 3 kids, I can't justify having a love for them like she does over there. Maybe one day. *sigh*

10 things I love about my city:

1. We lived here when I was a small girl for a while back when it was nothing but cotton fields. Back when you could walk to the general store and get a big bag of candy for 50 cents (no, I am not THAT old!). It was so small here that people now are actually shocked when you tell them you lived here in kindergarten and first grade. Everyone else are transplants.

2. We have the best mexican restaurant in the world here.

3. Our downtown area looks so much like it did when I was little and I was in a parade the length of the whole downtown area which is only like 2 blocks long.

4. We still have that small town spirit.

5. We are only one hour away from Nashville (north) and one hour away from Birmingham (south).

6. We can get to the beach in 6.5 hours!

7. We have one high school and LOTS of school spirit!

8. Our city boasts some of the highest education scores in the south.

9. They are putting in lots and lots of sidewalks which means you can walk to almost anywhere you want to go.

10. We live right between two larger cities, but still far enough away we do not hear any traffic.

Wow...refreshing. I really do love it here!

Whamalamalama Rock and Roll is King

Yep, I am listening to ELO...what's it to ya? I have it cranked up while I mop floors and clean house. I just got finished listening to The Eagles, "Hotel California" CD. Somehow old stuff is motivating me today (all the old stuff except myself), oh dang, "Don't Bring Me Down" just started. Oh the memories.

Not much is going on here. Just working, cleaning and running Lil Miss Princess all over the place. Thursday night found us at a double header football game for her school (I know, double headers is a baseball term..I have no idea what two football games back to back are called). It was actually pleasant outside the last couple of nights thanks to hurrican Katrina. I never liked girls named Katrina, and this hurricane is only validating my feelings. We were supposed to go to Pensacola this weekend to see my sailor son, but since his plane does not get in until last Sunday night, we postponed the trip for the following weekend, but now he is not sure when he will get there as the Navy has his crew on standby. ARGH! I want to see my son!!! This is the second time he was suppose to go down to Pensacola and we were to drive down and see him, but a dang hurricane got in the way. Last time we had to cancel all together. I hope this timem this thing gets on out so he can get down there. Who knows, they may end up canceling him going down there because they will be out to sea soon. Grrrrr....

But, so it goes on, and the dirty floors call out to me.

Off to mop.

Next up...some old Hank Williams Jr. Yeeehaw!

I am losing the fight yall

Grrr...why me? Why am I so nice and always setting myself up for something I do not want? Why? WHY???? Okay, when I took this job...my status was On-Call/Part-time. From day one, I worked 6-7 hours every day (most days not taking a lunch or anything)....not exactly On-Call..and sorta not part-time. Okay, then the girl I was told I would job share with, comes back to work when school starts (because her children have gone back to school), and I finally...FINALLY get my Tuesdays and Thursdays off (which I want and enjoy immensely!!!!!!!!!!), so, evidently, it was VERRRRRRY busy on Tuesday, and this girl freaked out. She does not want to do that job on Tuesdays and Thursdays because it is too hard and stressful. She does not want more responsibility which she was given when she came back (because we are doing the same job). So, today my boss tells me that she is hoping I can work those days until we figure out what to do. She said I didn't have to, but I will...because I am nice like that. There was some hinting about me going part-time/full-time, which I really do not want to do. So, here I am, part-time, going back to working everyday....again. How do I get myself into this? Why am I so nice? Why am I so competent? How can someone keep a job when they don't want to do it? Why is that?

Oh...and...uh

Oh, and did everyone in my fair city decide to go to the tag office on the EXACT same day as me???? Anyways, I took my BMW over to the dealership for them to install my floor mats, fix a scratch on the leather on the inside of the door (they just ordered me a new door panel), and the BMW "artist" was at the showroom today touching up paint scratches. They have their own "artist" for gosh sakes. Anyways, my salesperson (or Client Advisor) gave me his demo. Today I am driving this:






Rawr!

Adding a little somthin, somthin.....

May I just add...that today is my day off, and with the exception of starting a load of clothes and cleaning the fingerprints off my microwave, is I have done absolutely nothing!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel much better.

Tuesday

I totally ripped this off from Skillzy

Write down five of your own personal idiosyncrasies:

One: I cannot leave a knife dirty in the sink...at all. My hubby laughs at this one because before we go to bed I check the sink for knives. He asks me why that bothers me so much. My reponse is that if someone breaks into our house, I would rather not have a knife at the ready in the sink. To which he replies, all they have to do is just get one out of the knife block three feet away. Okay, I am not sure why this bothers me but it does. I guess all those years of seeing "Halloween" and stuff just took over my brain.

Two: When I eat a candy bar, Snickers, Three Musketeers, Kit Kats, what have you, I have to eat the chocolate off first. What's with that?

Three: When a black cat crosses my path, I still gotta make that damn X in the air.

Four: I have to check the doors to make sure they are locked like 20 times before I go to bed. See #1, or I guess I will just admit to being slightly OCD.

Five: I obsess about paying bills on time. When I was younger I never had that problem, but the older I get, the more I want my bills to be on time or early. I guess there are worse things.

Oh...and let me just add...

Six: Only because I just noticed there are fingerprints on the microwave. Now, that will totally drive me crazy!

Must go Windex!!!!

You know it's Monday when....

Today was a day that started out like all others. I get up, get on my elliptical for 20 mins, get my daughter up, jump in the shower, her friend comes over to catch the bus, I walk by our rabbit and.....he was dead. Yep, it was a sad day at our house today. Ears was our rabbits name and he was a caramel colored mini rex - a very small house rabbit that we keep in a fairly largish cage in our house. He has been a lot of work, but he brought much joy to us all. House rabbits are sort of like cats (he was litter trained), but we didn't let him roam the house because he had a crush on all the electrical outlets. He loved to chew them! When we got him, he was a cute little caramel bundle of fur. You could literally hold him in the palm of your hand. He grew to the size of our peekapoo dog, about 10 pounds when we last had him weighed. I knew his time was short because he was 9 years old, which is old for a rabbit, and we had also been told he may have cancer. He looked so peaceful this morning although I was so upset. He was so sweet. I should have known he didn't feel good a couple of days ago when I gave him a hunk of banana, he turned it down. Anyone who knew him knew that bananas were his weakness and he would never turn them down. Whenever you would get near his cage he would stand on his hind legs and hold on to the bars until you pet him on the head. I am gonna miss that little bundle of fur. Hubby built him a little wood casket today and placed him inside and wrapped him in some nice soft flannel. We decorated the box and wrote things to him on the outside. He was buried in the pouring rain.

*sniff*

What the heck?

Wow, I have been ignoring my little blob lately. Things have been busy around here at the Ok Corral. My daughter's computer has been infected with spyware, so she keeps taking the laptop upstairs, and I never see it anymore. Hence, the no posting. I made a point this evening between cleaning carpet and hanging shelves to catch up on reading and posting. I am watching a show about margaritas right now, and mmmmm...have I got a craving! I have been snacking all day with no real meals, and a margarita sounds very good right now.

The new car is awesome. We spent some time driving it around and getting use to it yesturday. It can do some amazing things. I wish it had autopilot though, now that would be impressive. This one came with a premium package that included heated seats. I laugh about that because we live in the south and the last few days the heat index has been over 100 degrees, so the thought of heated seats just makes me break out into giggles. I am not sure we will ever need those, but hey, they came with the car, so just in case hell freezes over, I am armed and ready.

Not much other news to report. It is about to get very busy around here. Next weekend we will go see my sailor son. I am very excited about that. Next month will see lots of birthdays around here. September is VERY busy. After that, my favorite time of year which kicks off with our local street festival. I love fall. Give me that football weather any time! Oh, and speaking of football and hot weather, my daughter's school's football jamboree was yesturday when it was almost 100 degrees. Let me tell you there is not a time in recent memory when I can tell you I was so miserable. They ended up canceling the last game because it was just too hot. Whoever planned a football jamboree in August outta get a good talking too. That's just rediculous to have kids out there in all that gear when it's almost 100 degrees. It was horrible.

Oh well...off to do some laundry - the chore that never, ever ends. *sigh*

Finally

Well..the car situation is finally over. I traded in my Jeep. I am a little sad because it was sooooo pretty, but it was time. I got a very nice car. Not new, but newer (new to me). I got a beautiful 2004 BMW 325i. Very nice. It drives like an absolute dream, the gas mileage is MUCH better, and the warranty is absolutely awesome. All I have to worry about for a few years is new tires and gas. AHHHHH. I am pretty excited since we have been driving everything under the sun trying to decide which/what to do. I will have to post more later because my dinner is ready. Just had to get this off my chest. HA!

Scary...I mean really scary

Okay, I am not sure if this is a joke or not, but this REALLY scares me!

Look if you dare.

Now, let me know how scared you are.

Vroooom!

Okay, I think the time has come. Friday while I was driving to work, my transmission light came on yet again. This really pissed me off as I have had my Jeep worked on several time (under warranty) on the transmission. Now the warranty time is ending, and here comes that damn light again. So, while we have no kids this weekend, hubby and I have been test driving various cars. First up was the Mustang I want so badly. While I loved it, hubby did not. He says it is built cheaply as evidenced by the fact that the hood of the car does not even line up with the side panels on the front of the car. I liked the way it drove, but it is only a four passenger car, and I thought and thought about this, and that is just not going to be practical for us. My 6' son joined us and his poor legs were drawn up to his chest while he was in the back seat and he had a strained look on his face when he explained how comfy it was because he knew I wanted one so bad. I still do, but at this point, it probably will not happen. *sigh* *groan*

Next up was a 2004 Infinity G35 which only had 250 miles on it. Seems our Infinity dealership has several of these left from last year and now I know why. Although the car is almost 2 years old in car age, they still want the sticker price on them. The car listed at $37,000 in 2004 and that was the price they tried to get out of us today. I explained to the salesperson that if I purchased it and drove it off the lot, it would immediately depreciate 2 years worth and I refuse to pay almost full purchase price for a two year old car. No way! I told him we were heading directly to the BMW dealership where I was sure I could get a 2006 BMW 325i for the same price that he wanted for his 2004 car (later I was proven correct as we went by the BMW dealership which was already closed). We also had a tremendous fun driving experience driving the Dodge Charger with a Hemi! Wow...that car was fun. You know, fun is not enough. It was very roomy and had lots of get up and go, but the interior was made VERY cheaply, and I could not see this car holding up for as long as we would need it to. It was fun to drive though.

Our last stop (before the closed BMW dealership) was the Jeep dealership. With all the employee pricing, we thought we would give Jeep a go. I do not like the look on the outside of the new Jeep, but the interior is nicer and has more room than ours. This one was equipped with a DVD system and Sirius radio and all the really fun stuff. I am not sure how the bottom line got to almost $8000 more than what the special employee pricing was, but I can't swallow a $38,000 price tag for a car like we already have and have had several problems with already. I am not sure what we are going to do at this point. Our Jeep has an appointment for Monday morning in the shop, and I guess when they tell us what they find, at that point we will decide what to do. We do plan to hit the BMW dealership on Tuesday and drive a BMW and see what we come up with there. I hate this whole process of buying a car and all the bull you have to go through. Who knows, we may end up keeping what we have and just dealing with whatever problems as they come up, but it sure would be nice to have a newer car that gets better gas mileage.

Anyways, vroooom and stuff.

Fo Shizzle

Well...today was SUPPOSE to be my day off, but like the good worker bee I am, I went to computer training...ON MY DAY OFF! After work, I sorta didn't want to go straight home so I stopped by my old place of employment to visit. Everything looks the same (although messier), but there are some new faces. I was slightly amused to find out the girl that took my old spot (after the previous girl that took my old spot - meaning this was the 2nd girl after I left), was let go. The amusing part about this is that usually your place of employment abuses you (particularly this place which is the reason I left there) but somehow she managed to abuse them! Kudos to her. Really didn't know that could be done there, but wow. Somehow she managed and has now found herself looking for a new job. The awkward thing is that I was actually there when she was turning all her stuff in and picking up her stuff, and I got to see the whole thing. Weird. So now there is no one in my old position, and I am not sure they will put anyone there since it seems they can't keep anyone. Now just what does that say? I do miss some of the people there and enjoy visiting.

They are not all bad.

I think.

No! Don't burst my bubble!

In my comments, the oh so wonderful Skillzy was commenting on the new Mustang. I haven't driven one yet because I want one so bad I am afraid to drive one, because we certainly do not need another car payment at this time, and I know it will make me want one really bad. You know though, it might be good to rent one like he did, and just drive it for a few days and see if I still feel the same. I am really afraid to do that though. I am having car lust right now. *pant* Help me please! *hugs Skillzy* I know it's not all about looks. But look:



Must have Skillzy!!!!! Must have it!!!!!


Speaking of trying things out, my hubby got me my very own elliptical machine yesturday. Since I started back to work it has been virtually impossible for me to go to the gym although I am part-time, I am really not part-time. I am about to get pissed about it too. Give me my part-time damn you! Anyways, I love it very, very much. I get up a little earlier, turn on the news, and just elliptical myself into a sweaty disgusting 135 beats per minute mess. It's lovely actually.

This past weekend was fun. I took daughter and 3 of her good friends shopping at the Galleria in Birmingham. The trip on the way there and back was the most fun. They spent most of the trip there playing RubberNeckers and making signs to put in the windows to try to get people (mostly truck drivers) to honk their horns. They would cheer and laugh when they got the reaction they wanted. Oh to be young again. The highlight of the trip is when the girls found these type of handbags. They were just thrilled. My daughter got one on hot pink. I splurged on myself a little with the skincare line of Shiseido. I had already been wearing The Makeup in compact form, but the skincare line is to die for. I left a happy camper. I have been wanting to try the Bare Minerals stuff, but am afraid to order it because I am not sure if I would like it. If anyone out there has tried it, let me know. I would love to know what you experience with that has been. I have time, I stocked up on Sheseido since they don't sell it here, I had to load up.

Welp, I am beat.

Have a great night.

I am off today!

Wow..this feels really good. You would never know someone would be so excited to have a day off from their "supposedly" "part-time" job. I was looking forward to next week when I was "suppose" to have Tuesday and Thursday off for the first time since starting my "part-time" job, when they scheduled me for computer training on Tuesday and Thursday, so I am not getting that either. Aren't I so fortunate to get a job at a University who is changing their WHOLE computer system over and going live Oct. 1??? I mean, the whole University is changing their WHOLE computer system. I think it is a joke that I am "part-time". So far, "part-time" has meant I go in at 8:15, eat a sandwich at my desk for lunch, and leave somewhere around 3 or 3:30 - EVERY SINGLE DAY. I am sorry if I sound so sarcastic. I just want my dang part-time! The only thing that keeps me going is the fact that I will get the whole Christmas holiday period off...just like a student! Also, I am working my way towards one of these

I must have one. My first one was a 1967. I want one bad.

Okay, well, anyways...I am off today. I thought I was taking my daughter and her friends on a shopping extravaganza today, but since two of my daughters good friends are cheerleaders, they had a surprise practice called today and they can't go for fear of demerits and lots of running. One of her friends said she would be happy to run it off, but the other was absolutely horrified at the thought of getting a demerit (she is a good girl), so tomorrow will be our big shoppping trip.

So, how do I plan to spend my big day off? Well...I slept until 10:00 this morning which felt really really good. I have laundry going. I made a big ole pot of Mudslide flavored coffee from my latest order of coffee from CoffeeAM. I am getting ready to make a huge bowl of my favorite cereal, Cocoa Pebbles. I have my checkbook laid out, getting ready to pay my stack of bills. I plan to vaccum, distribute folded clothes to each and every occupants rooms for them to put away. I am debating going to get a pedicure. Oh, and daughter has a hair cut appointment later. So yes, my day is full. Hubby was going to take time off today, but he is conducting interviews today for a new engineer to help in his department. I really have a lot to do, but meanwhile, I am going to enjoy my morning off. No phones ringing constantly, no one giving me a pity story as to why they need a job, no stupid questions.

I am in heaven!

When I was....

I stole this from Lasadh -

10 years ago: We were getting ready to move from out old house into this house. Although we had found this house while it was being built, we took the bold step of buying it before we sold our old house. That was a scary time. My daughter was almost 3. My oldest son was 10 and my younger son was 8. I miss those days!

5 years ago: Gosh, I don't know what the heck I was doing 5 years ago...isn't that sad?

1 year ago: I was working at a place I was trying to get out of.

Yesturday: I worked hard (it was realllllly busy) and called my Sports Doc because my knee is hurting again. I was mad because they don't return calls that were made after 1:00 pm. I called at 1:02 pm.

Today: Doctor's assistant called me at 7:30 am as I was driving to work. YAY! I got some new drugs to replace the evil Bextra. Took son to pay his tuition for his first semester of college. Ummmm...ouch! Oh, and his Psychology book will be 93.50 plus tax. I think it is a joke that most all of the classes he is taking this semester, require new textbooks, so - no used books. BOOO!!!!

Tomorrow: I took the day off because we were going to go out of town, which got put off until Saturday, so tomorrow I plan to sleep in late. I could go to work, but they are already not expecting me. I plan to sleep, catch up on laundry and stuff like that.

Okay, I been so obsessed with how tired I am I totally forgot to tell you all that I went to see "March of the Penguin" this weekend. Wow...what a great movie. Isn't it amazing what most creatures will do for their children. I took plenty of hankies because I heard it had some really sad parts, and they were sad, although my old heart must have hardened a little because I didn't shed the first tear. What is wrong with me? When I was little me and the family would sit down together and watch "Lassie". Just before it got to the part where it looked like Lassie was going to buy the farm, I would run to the bathroom. See...I thought I was so cool because in my mind, I thought the fam was thinking I had to go pee. But, what I really did was go in the bathroom and cry my eyes out and pray for poor Lassie. When I would come out my eyes would be all red, and although I thought I was being smooth and secretive, they were on to me. Later this became the source of many a joke and topic of conversation at all family gatherings.

Did you ever see "The Red Pony" - I cried
Every "Benji" - I cried
"Old Yeller" - cried like a baby
"You Can Never Tell" - more crying (okay, this is a really old movie, I was not alive when it was made, but it still made me cry).

Okay, my point here is that I really use to turn on the water works when I was watching a sappy animal movie, and that has not happened in a long time. I love animals. Now it's when something bad happens to a kid in a movie it gets me. Maybe my love for animals has been replaced with a strong love for kids. Hmmm....I wonder.

In conclusion (doesn't that sound so Eng. Lit?) I highly recommend this movie and I recommend you take hankies in case you find it much more sad than I did myself. I think it is a wonderful story of love, life, and how these beautiful creatures survive.

Awesome

I am tired Yo!

Dang...is that all I say anymore? I am tired? Are you guys as tired as I am constantly? jeez!!! Tonight was just a whole barrel of laughs. We had "Open House" at my daughter's new school. She starts her first year of Middle School (7th grade in our area). You could feel the hormones as you walked down the halls. Everyone checking everyone out. It was disgusting! hahaha You just know little Ok (my daughter) was doing a lot of the checking out and getting a lot of the checking out looks. Hubby was mumbling something about cleaning guns and digging holes in the back yard for inserting boys that mess with little Ok (daughter). The whole thing was quite comical. It was so middle schoolish. It is amazing to me to see these kids whom I have known since they were preschoolers, and how they are growing up. I hope the ones that were always good kids, stay good kids. It scares me to think my daughter might meet up with and become best friends with any bad kids. She is such a good girl now, and she has a good group of friends - I really pray it stays that way. My two boys have turned out to be awesome young men. *praying*

Okay, about the tired thing. It may have to do with the fact that it is busy when I hit the door at work and it stays that way all day long. Constant. Steady. Balls to the wall work. I like it, but it is just so dang busy. By the time I get home, I don't even feel like walking or exercising. It's just rediculous. Another thing, hubby is ALWAYS on dang conference calls from work. It seems lately our phone is ringing constantly and it is just driving me crazy. He took this management position 8 months ago, and I am not sure I like it anymore. He got a nice big raise and all, but dammit....leave us alone at home!!!!

Just so you know, I am not grumpy all the time. I do have my great moments, and I think they will start in two weeks when I go back to my REAL part-time schedule. I was supposed to go back part-time next week, but mysteriously, I have been scheduled for database/computer training on my days off. Hmmmm...imagine that. I think it's a cruel ploy. This place just will not let me work my 20 hour a week work schedule that I was hired in to do. Oh well, the money is good, and evidently it's the place to work according to the 26 people that sent/brought in applications just today.

Okay, enough. I am going to bed. Hopefully I will dream of something fabulous.

I wish the same for you.

I been tagged!

Okay, I have been tagged by the most wonderful skillzy - so here goes:

List ten songs that you are currently digging … it doesn’t matter what genre they are from, whether they have words, or even if they’re no good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying right now. Post these instructions, the artists, and the ten songs in your blog. Then tag five other people to see what they’re listening to.

Okay...here is my list:

1. Landslide - Dixie Chicks (listened to that on my way to work this morning although I am still pissed at them. It makes me think of my kids though, and I do like their version).

2. Hey Mama - Black Eyed Peas (on my workout list off my ipod. Gets me going).

3. Since You Been Gone - Kelly Clarkson (I really like this song, and it makes me think about stuff).

4. Around the World - Red Hot Chili Peppers (I actually break out into a run on this one - not when I am driving, but when I am working out).

5. The Reason - Hoobastank (I am soooo good at this song when I play Karaoke Revolution with my teenaged daughter....I kick her butt every time!)

6. All My Exes Live in Texas - George Straight (oh yummm!)

7. Right Through You - Alanis Morisette (self explanatory)

8. A Country Boy Can Survive - Hank Williams Jr. (This always reminds me of my rodeo/horse show days, yes, I am an ex-redneck, so what?)

9. Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana (THE BEST SONG EVER!!!!!)

10. Big Love - Fleetwood Mac (Because I have had a secret crush on Lindsey Buckingham for YEARS!)

Let me see...who can I tag? Hmmm....

First of all...my girl Whit cuz I miss her.

Secondly, Gawain because I am curious as to what he will say.

And then, Kalisah because she is so frigging funny.

Next, the girl that looks good constantly, and I love the way she writes.

And last of all, Pink because she seems to be really cool.


Now....let's see what you guys are listening to!

Please help!

I do sound desperate don't I? We had one of those really busy run around weekends and I am absolutely exhausted. One thing that did not help was the fact that I could not sleep last night. I was so tired, but all I did was lay there with my eyes closed. I could hear everything around me, and really was not asleep and could not go to sleep. I think it has something to do with getting older. I hear you can start having problems with sleep (as well as other things - which I have not had), and not sleeping is going to kill me. I am so tired I felt all day on the verge of tears just from being so tired. It also does not help that I am cramping like hell too. Dang, I am really grumpy aren't I? I was hoping to try to get to bed early tonight, but I have bunco so when I got home today instead of taking a nice needed nap, I had to make a dish to take. *grumble* I ended up using the ton of left over grilled veggies from the other night and making a pasta salad with grilled veggies. It turned out great too!

Today was so busy at work, I hardly had time to even think. Next week I will go to my part-time 3 day a week position that I applied for and I am looking very forward to that. I am so tired I feel like crap.

And that's all I have to say about that.
