out of it

I have really been out of the blog loop as of late. I don't check up like I used to and you all can see I haven't posted in almost two months. I don't have the time anymore. I have not one new job but 2 new jobs. One is great and a walk in the park...the other is a beast. It wouldn't be a beast if the boss knew what she were doing. But she doesn't...and I do...and it makes it really hard to be nice when I KNOW she is doing it all wrong. I have talked about this at length with Kat..... urgh!<--- that's my new word, works better than ugh.....shows more frustration I think....say it, you'll see what I mean. So back to the frustration... if I could just find a way to get rid of her and take her place. She probably has a blog and is reading this thinking....hey wait a minute...I know her.... again I say URGH!

Mr. Bubbles decided to remodel a bit. Great in the end right now it is a huge mess, as any construction or reconstruction. I hate messes. I actually get a little nervous if I have to be in a mess for too long. I clean. It makes me happy. I have been told I am a bit like Monica on Friends. I don't vaccuum the vacuum cleaner...everytime. So to sum up this bit of rambling.....I haven't been able to clean and I have a lot of energy that is doing nothing but making me nervous and tired.

I think the cold weather is gone, for now. Who knows really if or when it will return. We didn't get any snow to make the cold fun, it was just cold, really cold. We were supposed to get snow...then it either went south and blasted Atlanta or stayed north of us into Kentucky and Virginia. We got a teeny amount this past sunday....enough to let the kids sled down our hill. Mr. Bubbles and I did too! We actually laid out of Sunday School to do so. I was good and went to church after the sledding. I was glad I did that for hte kids because when I returned from church the snow was gone. Let them be kids right?Like I said....who knows if or when we will get snow.

Think I will go and try to catch up on all that I have missed the past couple of months....or maybe I will just start now and pretend I am new to blogger. Either way I will see you soon.

the answer is....

27! Man 30 is approaching quickly! The worst part is I remember my parents turning 30. There are those around me that will get there before me and others that are already past the 30 mark but it is still new to me. I am on the downhill slide now and the bottom is getting closer. ACK!

On a happier note I had a great couple of days. I have been taken out by my job, my brother treated me to lunch on the day, and my parents came up and took me and the bubble clan out to dinner last night. Mom made my favorite cake and left it here for me to savor! Gifts were given to me and hugs exchanged.

I hope you all have a fantastic New Years Eve and an even better New year!

Happy Birthday....

...to me! That's right I am another year older today. I am choosing not to tell you, however guesses are fun and welcome. Kat, you already know so I am excluding you from this little game....for now. Let the games begin!

not my fault!

Before I let you view the quiz thingy I did today, I feel I must say it is not my fault that the fall background is still up. It is ALL KAT'S! Yep that's right her fault. LOL! I sent her a pic but need to send her a better link to the pic befor she can do her magic but it is her fault....partly ;)! Ok now on with the fun!

You Are Rudolph

Sweet and shy, you tend to be happiest when you're making someone else happy. Why You're Naughty: You sometimes stick that nose where it doesn't belong Why You're Nice: Christmas would be a sad affair without you!

Which of Santa's Reindeer Are You?

ok that's enough...

... for now. I think I have killed enough time on the computer and posted plenty of silly non-sensical quizzes. I love those stupid things, I don't know why either. I hope all is well and please feel free to take the quizzes and let me know how you did.

HAHA!

What Kind of Cookie Are You?

I couldn't help myself. I maybe posting a few more of these today. Hope all is well!

You are The Sun

Happiness, Content, Joy.

The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.

Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.

The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

REALLY??!!

Has it really been that long since I posted?! What have I been doing? Who have I been talking to? I don't know, not Kat....I know this because she has been whining to me about it...LOL! Can't say that I blame her. We both went from the ones who stay at home to the ones who barely remember what home looks like. I am not complaining. I like being back out in the world where I am a person with a face. To answer some questions it has been work, work, and a little more volunteer work. I mentioned it last post that something was happening at work and I was smack in the middle of it but didn't know how just yet. Remember? Well I think I am getting an idea but I am not ready to share just yet....don't want to jinx it or have to eat my words later, so stay tuned.

We traded the Explorer that was giving us trouble even after I got it back. We got a completely loaded Chevy Trailblazer. Leather, sunroof, power everything, 6 disc BOSE CD player, tinted windows, 3rd row seating....you get the idea. I LOVE IT! I don't care if it were a Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Audi, Honda, Kia....I am not brand loyal...I just want it to run, be dependable, and have a few bells and whistles.

Ok enough about my little mundane life. I want to open up a discussion about two things that are out now. I think I can honestly say I am disgusted by these and I am not going to support them. #1--- the movie Flushed Away. NO WAY! I will not be taking my boys to see a movie about the toilet and where things go when flushed and all of the insinuendos that I am sure are prevalent in this nasty idea of cinematography. #2--- Baby Alive. What in the world? The baby tells you it made a stinky after you feed it. And then you change the diaper and it is dirty! I love babies but the thought of giving my nieces or my baby girl that doesn't exist yet a doll the eats and poops is just wrong. They had a class in highschool that had dolls that cried and you had to figure out what was wrong(if anything) with the "baby". It was to help prevent teen pregnancy. I think it worked on some....they didn't like having to get up all hours of the night to turn a key and press codes to get the thing to quit crying. If only real babies had codes! LOL! I didn't take the class...I was on a different path. And now they have created a toy that does the same thing? Why? Is there really a market out there for this?

Alright....enough of that. I hope all is well out there in blogland and I am doing my best to come and "see" you all as soon as I can! Hugs!

Well well well

Yes I have been that busy. Too bust to breathe almost. I love my jobs. The only challenge for me at the moment is to survive the constant drama that the boss creates. I have two jobs. One is a teacher, and that is the job that the boss is a drama creator, and the second job is keeping the nursery a couple of nights a week. Something is in the works for me. I feel it.....but no one will let me in on it. Do I make any sense? The drama boss is not a real popular lady and I believe has pissed off too many of the wrong people....and I could be mistaken but this is where I enter the scene....only I don't know how yet. URGH!!!!!!!!

Finally got my SUV back....still isn't right....gonna have to trade it. *heavy sigh* I love that SUV, I really do. Don't know what I am gonna end up with or when for that matter just soon.

I was bending Kat's ear the other day....don't get to do that much anymore. And I came to a universal question that she didn't have the answer for...well not one that I choose to accept....and I still want to know. See if you can help me out on this one. Why is men respect the sanctity of other men's homes when it comes to the recliner and the remote control but cannot seem to grasp the concept of respecting the household work of the wife? Here is an example, yes I am speaking from personal experience. Mr. Bubbles will not sit in or touch my fathers remote or recliner when we are visiting them...nor will my father when they are here but neither of them care to put away the clothes that have been picked up out of the floor, washed, dried, folded/hung up, and brought to the respective rooms. Neither will try to pick up after the mini bubbles and when asked to keep them out of the kitchen so I or my mother can cook their solution is to try to make them sit in the holy recliner with them. HELLO! They are 4 and 2....it doesn't work naturally and they end up under my feet anyway. One more little twist to my theory....a friend of ours came over to the house the other night. After dinner Mr. Bubbles was putting the mini bubbles to bed. The friend and I retired to the basement to watch t.v. He took the remote. Then as soon as he heard Mr. Bubbles coming down the stairs he blankly held up the remote and Mr. Bubbles blankly took it from him. I was stunned on so many levels that I am not even going to list them. So what is it? I must be missing something. I know that this does not hold true in every household....like Kat's for instance because, well, ummm, the man is pratically non existent in her house.

I am going to try to do better at posting. Thanks for checking in on me!
