Envelope

If you are a mom, would you like to get this as a Mother's Day present???? I would never have thought of this as a present for Mother's Day, but maybe that's just me.

Don't worry mom, this isn't what I'm getting you! (Just in case you're reading this)

This does remind me of when I was a kid, though. Before I tell you why, I would like to say to my mom.... I LOVE YOU MOM! THIS IS NOT ME BEING MEAN, JUST AN OBSERVATION THAT I REMEMBER OF THE OLD DAYS AND WHEN I THINK OF IT I SMILE BECAUSE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH FOR JUST BEING THE CUTE LITTLE MOM THAT YOU ARE. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU LAUGH, CAUSE YOU LAUGH AND GIGGLE JUST LIKE A LITTLE GIRL! LOVE YOU LOTS! *kiss*

I remember when I was a kid, (which was not that long ago) my mom would cut out coupons out of the newspaper every once in awhile. I would watch her go through them one by one and sort them out. I'm not sure what order she put them in because I was young and to me it seemed like some strange, alien filing system she had. I was in awe of her when she had those coupons. She had this little envelope booklet thing she used to carry them in. I don't think she has it anymore, but this reminded me of it. And it reminded me of how much I love her. After she would finish filing them into their slots in the envelope, she would shove it into her circus bag (her purse). My mom used to keep all kinds of stuff in that purse. She carried more stuff in there that you would think was humanly possible. If you were to try and take all the stuff out and then put it back in, you would never be able to. She had some top secret 007 way of getting everything in there. It was amazing.

I love that about my mother. She is such a great mom. She would always have anything I needed wherever we were. If she didn't have exactly what you needed, she was like McGyver in finding another way to fix it. I also remember a time My mom and us three girls went for a day trip up north. We ordered some KFC and went to a park to have lunch. When we got to the park, we realized we didnt have plastic-ware. That wouldn't be a big deal for chicken, but how do you eat mashed potatoes... (don't say it). If you would even try to mention using your fingers, don't bother. My middle sister is one of those people (messy people, I love you too sis *kiss*) that always seem to get food on themselves. So you have to try and make food as clean as possible and no finger foods are good for my sister. So my mom went through her Circus Bag to find something, ANYTHING, we could use to eat with. The pack rat that she is ended up getting us all credit cards that we could use to scoop the mashed potatoes out with and eat. Not easy, but at least we didn't have to use our fingers. That's why I love my mom, my MRS. MCGYVER!

Today I have learned that I don't know as much as I thought I knew. I saw this picture and was scared to death. I have never seen one of these before and I wasn't sure what it was. It's an aye-aye. The only aye-aye I have ever heard was in pirate movies.

NOXCUSZ

I saw that license plate this morning on my way to work. Boy did it make me think. Isn't it funny how one little thing like a license plate, a saying, a quote, a quip, or something someone just blurts out can change your whole outlook. It took me a few minutes to realize what that means. It means, "No excuses". BOY! Are they talking to me???

I am Miss Excuse! I have everyone always telling me how I have an excuse for anything I do. I DO! My road rage.... Oh, I get that from father, he has an anger issue and that ginetics. Even when I am just talking to someone and I say something wrong, I say "Oh Sorry, I must of been thinking of something else". I apologize incessantly and I always have an excuse for it.

My new outlook..... NO EXCUSES! Today is the first day of my new outlook on life! Let's see if I can stick to this. If I start to make excuses please point it out to me. I'm on a mission!

Viewers!

I have been seeing a couple of people who have been checking out my blogs. Thank you to everyone that has stopped by and taken the time to read what I have to say. It means a lot to me. I am glad that I am not just talking to myself here. I have made a few new internet friends through these blogs and I cherish all the comments you have left. Thank you again.

!!!James!!!




This is my baby James. This is when I first got him. He loved to play with my bra (don't ask me why). I call him Bubba too. I've had him since he was 7 months old. He is my little boy. He is now 2 years old. He is the cutest little thing, but he can be a pain in the butt at times. He thinks he is a human. He knows Mom won't let him do certain things, but he also knows who lets him get away with things. When moms home, he doesn't try anything. He stays inside, because I am paranoid about him getting hurt. When I go to bed he always lays next to my head and puts his arm around my neck. He loves to be right next to me.

CHRIS TUCKER WAS ARRESTED!




I was wondering what he has been up to. I miss watching him. I really enjoyed him as an actor / comedian. I hope he comes back to films.

FYI - He got arrested for speeding. He was doing 109 on Interstate 20, then didn't pull over right away so they also got him for eluding police in his 2003 Bently. Nice car by the way, too.

Attack of the Road Rage


Those of you who know me, and you know who you are.... know I am a little wild when it comes to my driving. I tend to speed, try to do two things at once (i.e. finding a CD, talking on the phone, eating, etc.), and sing and dance. Well, I also have road rage. I've never gotten into a fight, or gone completely insane on someone, but I do cuss out load and yell inside my car at stupid people (only in my mind are they stupid) who don't go fast enough, cut me off, or do ignorant things that involves getting into my way. Well, it is not good when two people with road rage get together on the street. It usually ends up in a quarrel or something worse.

This weekend, I almost got attacked. I was out at 2:30 am (don't ask why) and I was in a hurry (like always). I was driving down the street on a one lane road where the speed limit is 45 mph. Then I caught up to a guy in white pickup doing 25 - 30. YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! CAN'T YOU READ! THE SIGN SAYS 45 A**HOLE. GET OUTTA THE WAY. So, I was kind of close to him. Then he break checks me. I slammed on my breaks as well, but I did not hit him cause I wasn't close. YOU SON A B*TCH. I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU ARE THAT MUCH OF A F**KER THAT YOU WOULD STOOP TO SUCH A LOW THING LIKE BREAK CHECKING! I DON'T EVEN BREAK CHECK! So because I have anger problems, I continued to ride his a**. We came to a section of the road where I had a chance to pass him. I tried to go around him, and then he went faster so I couldn't get around him. Wait a minute! FIRST YOU DRIVE SLOWER THAN MY 96 YEAR OLD GREAT GRANDMOTHER, THEN YOU GO FASTER ONLY TO BE A D*CK SO I CAN'T GET AROUND YOU! YOU LOW LIFE, C*CKS*CKIN', M*TH*RF*CKIN SON OF A B*TCH! WHY NOT LET ME AROUND YOU? THEN I WOULD BE OUT OF YOUR WAY SO YOU CAN CONTINUE TO BE A F*CKER TO THE REST OF THE DRIVING POPULATION! BY NOOOOOOOOOOOO.... YOU HAVE TO CONTINUE TO F*CK WITH ME! Then he curves to the side of the road and stops his car in front of me. He gets out and starts screaming at me.... "WHAT THE F*CK IS THE MATTER WITH YOU. YOU CRAZY B*TCH! YOU STUPID..." I didn't hear the rest of what he said. I swerved into the opposing traffic (don't worry no one was there) and went around him finally. I almost hit his stupid a** too. Do you really think that I am dump enough to sit there in my car and let you come up to me and assault me. You're an idiot. I do know how to go around a car and leave you screaming on the side of the road looking like a lunatic while I win by finally getting around you and go on my merry way. (Doing 45 - 50 mph by the way). So see, I got what I wanted, even though it was a bad situation.

Like I said, two people with road rage..... not a good combo. Plus I think he might of been drunk. 2:30 am - driving 25 - 30 mph.... probably trying to avoid being pulled over and getting arrested. Who knows! I know you probably think I'm psycho, but that's the way I am when I'm in my car... gotta be honest.

Ebay, Ebay, Ebay!

I love ebay when I need to find something in bulk. You can get a lot of things cheap if you buy them in a LOT! I bought some photo albums, yarn, misc garbage. I've sold lots of stuff on ebay as well. The only thing I don't understand is the people who put a reserve on their item and the reserve is the same price as the buy it now price. Why even put a reserve? Why not just start out the bidding at that price? It makes no sense getting people hopes up in bidding for an item, just to have it say reserve not met. AUUUGGGGHHHH! I hate that.

Some people have creative imaginations!

It's amazing the stuff you can get off the internet!




What would be going thru your head at this moment!
