Happy Saturday to You.

Well, it is Saturday morning and it is just the kids and I. Clint has headed off for the weekend to relax and do some fishing. He won a weekend with a camper for free from the MWR, here on post. Lucky guy. Ethan has decided that 19 month old babies with big balls, should not have to wear diapers. He keeps showing up butt-ass naked. Gotta love a nudist. The insurance called and it was a mere $408 to fix the car I backed into. Whew!!! I suppose I should be releaved I didn't damage my vehicle. I am glad, I just can't believe I backed smack dab into that poor woman's car. Tuesday, August 2nd is National Night Out. Jennifer and I will be at Iron Horse Park doing our campainging for mayor. A bunch of the giorls in the neighborhood have offered to help us out. We are going to win. We are going to win. My counter has passed 20,000. What should I do to celebrate? Any ideas? Off to try to get through my entire blogroll for a second day in a row. Random link

Self Portrait Friday

My favorite t-shirt is a little over a month old. I got it at Old navy . It is friggin' comfortable as hell. The t-shirt material is so soft. Clint (really needs to be nagged about his lack of posting) took my pictures while I vacuumed upstairs. I was cleaning the play room and the kids' bedroom. I suppose I should have brushed my hair. I need coffee...... Look at me! I love housework. NOT!!!!! Other Sexy, Hot T-shirts!

He has the biggest balls of them all.

When Ethan was born, they told us he had a condition called hydrocele . They said the fluid would absorb by his first year check -up. It did not. I decided to wait until his 18 month well baby check-up, to give it a little more time. Well, it hasn't absorbed. We have to go to see a urologist (did I spell that right?). I was not really too concerned until I read they would use general anesthesia. I am totally freakin' now. I assumed they would just numb the nuts and withdraw the fluid with a needle. HOLY SHIT! They actually have to go in there. What if they jack something up and he is sterilized? What if he is allergic to the anesthesia? Can he just continue to have big balls? What's wrong with big balls. I have them (well, not really...just wanted to clarify). FREAKING THE HELL OUT.

My brains are leaking.

Thank you to the anon commenter who pointed out that my comments should read Now you're talking and not now your talking. I am watching way too much Blues Clues. I swear having three children under the age of three is making me dumber by the day. I used to run a restaurant for god's sake. I fired people. I cut costs. I handled distributers. I used to be some what intelligent. Now....I can not spell, use correct punctuation, or grammar. I apologize to all of you with more then half a brain. Please continue to point out my mistakes, I will fix them. Maybe that way, not everyone will know I am a complete idiot.

Way Back Wednesday

Today Mama Duck is doing the normal Way Back Wednesday. Today's theme is bad hair. I have so many options. I tried to find the picture from the perm my mother gave me in the third grade. Can you say Bozo the Clown? If I find it later, I will share. You will have a great laugh. Today, I am going to show you to very sad pictures. What makes these pictures even worse, my hair and makeup were done by professionals. This first picture was done at a place called Hollywood portraits. The ghetto version of Glamour shots. There are so MANY things wrong here. Where do I start. We should start with the hair. I know I lived in Texas, but come on now. Then there are the two fuzzy caterpillars above my eyes. Oh, how about the fact I cannot fill out the top. That is just pathetic. Then there is the make-up. OH MY GOD!!! I think one of my favorite touches is not only the bright ass lipstick, but also the bouncy girls holding my ears in place. The next picture isn't quite as bad. There has been

She wants to know what is on my nightstand. Well, I just rearranged the house and no longer have a nightstand. The computer desk is on my side of the bed. Bummer. Clint has a clock and a turtle lamp on his side of the bed. Pretty boring, I know, but with three

There are going to be some changes around here.

I have decided to give up my blinkies in the side bar. I Have also decided to do away with Wedenesday's Wonder Blog. I am now going to include a blinkie or picture in each post. It will connect to one of my favorite blogs. I guess you will have to click on it to see which one.Bwahahahahahahaha

Quick bit of info.

I did not notice at first, but I was signed in as Amy. My friend Amy's computer is down and she uses mine sometimes. Well, I have been commenting all over the blogosphere as Amy. OOPS. Let's see if i can get it right the rest of the day. Oh, and for those who say it takes a long time for the page to load *wink wink*, I took some crap off. Will you let me know if it loads quicker for you. I am also wondering if you are on dial-up, dsl, or cable. Thanks!

Crash...Boom...Ahhhhh SHIT!!!

Let me tell you about my GREAT day yesterday. First, it has finally cooled off. This improved everyone's mood. Secondly, Two of my friends and I decided to load up ALL our kids (9 of them) and head out to the Dollar Tree. I had never been there before. Let me just tell you......I loved it. We got pom poms, flutes, microphones, and of course tiaras. Thirdly, Once my trip to cheap heaven was over, we headed over to Home Depot. Mayoral canidates have to have nice yards, don't yah know. I was on the search for some ivies, but did not find them. I did find some nice plants. Oh yes, I also found myself backing into a car in the friggin' parking lot. I just ran right the hell into it. I started to back up, looked behind me, and decided to back up into the empty space behind me. Guess what!!!! It was friggin' empty. It was just too small to see from my montero. DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT!!!!!! Luckily no damage was done to my car, but I did crack her bumper about the size of a quarte

Calling Dave and Ashley

Hello? Hello? Dave? Ashley? Everyone loves the coasters. Could you please leave a comment telling us where you got them? What a friggin' clever gift. I suppose I could call you on the phone, but it is downstairs and my computer is up here, you get the picture. yes, yes. I have many issues. I love you BOTH!!!! I WILL call. Maybe. Bwhahahahaha

Twins gone wild.

This picture was taken about a year and a half ago. The twins and the dog had their way with the mail, the ads, and the tupperware. It really was "twins gone wild". For some reason, my children have an obsession with paper. We still go through this with them anytime we check the mail. They NEED the junk mail. Little weirdos!

Blue Marlin Pools

Jen, over at For the Birds, had big problems with the pool contractor that she and her husband, Andy used. DO NOT USE BLUE MARLIN POOLS. So, if you are having a pool put in and are considering this company, go to her website DO NOT USE BLUE MARLIN POOLS. She gives you all the dirt. If you are not getting a pool put in and are just nosey like me, go to DO NOT USE BLUE MARLIN POOLS .

WASSUP?!?!

Okay, here is the dirty low down. One of my neighbors had her water break, so off to the hospital she and her hubby went and over came the 18 month old. She is the best baby. She is so easy to take care of. The only draw back? I was enjoying my third glass of wine. OOPS!!!!! I hope she didn't mind the wino breath. I rearranged the living room and our bedroom all day yesterday, so I was not on the computer. Missed me, Missed me, Now you gotta kiss me. Today I have to get caught up on all my favorite blogs. Damn, that is going to take me all day. whew...I am excited just thinking about it. Have I mentioned my other neighbor and I are running for Mayor and Deputy Mayor? I am so excited. I think I have a great partner in this endeavor. She is a real get things done kind of girl. I adore that biatch. I was supposed to go to the post office yesterday. I had birthday cards to send to Katie and Kimberly, I had a card to send to Erik's wife, Birthday packages for two of Jack Army and Ji

Self Portrait Friday

This is the first self portrait friday that is really just that. Usually Clint takes my pictures for me. So, here it is. My normal blogging stance. I love my computer chair. Our neighbors, Mike and Amy gave it to us. I have such sweet neighbors. Self Portrait Friday Players WarCryGirl Jana A Military Mom MamaDuck Jody Cat Meritt Suzan Erik Curt Flying Jenny Toni Annie Stacy Lee Jinniy Christie Heather Kate Cara Please let me kmow if you decided to play and are not on the list. Sorry I am so friggin' late. Speaking of sweet....Look at these cool coasters I got in the mail today. My brother, Dave and his wife (well, I am sure it was really his wife) sent us these coasters for our anniversary. They have pictures from our wedding on them. How cool is that. She apologized because it was late, but she doesn't know I have their anniversary card sitting here still waiting to be mailed. I guess we all missed the boat this year. Anyways, what a cool idea for an anniversary present. My si

While you are at Jenny's , do not forget to check out the blogathon. Oh, read my haiku first and then go. Have you seen my site? It is really quite a fright. Needs a little bite.

Where is SPF?

Self Portrait Friday will be up as soon as I can get a camera. Clint took our camera with him to Texas, so I have to wait for Amy to get up and out to use her camera. It will be up soon. I swear. In the mean time, go check out the blogathon Jenny will be having. She is also having a contest to win a layout for your blog. It ends tonight at midnight.

Check It Out Now!!!

Jenny sent me the following e-mail and I find this cause more than worthwhile. Read about it or suffer the consequences. E-mail: August 6th at 9:00 PM (EST) BLOGATHON 2005 is on !!! We are four women blogging for [ MISS foundation on this group blog ( Three moms and a single lady )we made especially for the event. What is Blogathon ? First some terminology: “blog” is a shortened version of “weblog” which is a frequently updated personal website. Most blogs have date stamps on the entries, and consist of links and commentary. Now, remember when you were in school and you would bowl for charity? And for every pin you knocked down you got, say, ten cents? Or run for a dollar a mile? During the Blogathon, people update their websites every 30 minutes for 24 hours straight. For this, they collect sponsorships. Pledges can be a flat donation, or a certain amount for every hour the blogger manages to stay awake. What is MISS foundation? Well here's an excerpt from their site About MISS

It's Hump Day.....hee hee

I am feeling fine. I have been a bit busy. Clint left this morning. He and Ethan headed off to Dallas. Clint was unable to get there before his friend passed away, but he will luckily make the funeral. So much to do today, so much to do. #1 MamaDuck is hosting the usual Way Back Wednesday. This weeks theme is "college and inebriation". Instead of posting a jackass picture of myself (because I do that often enough), I decided to post a jackass picture of Clint. I figured, he has been dilly dallying with posting, so why not. I debated about telling the story before or after the picture and decided to tell you before. I am afraid you might not be able to read it through your tears of laughter, unless I tell you ahead of time. It is a simple senario. Boy gets drunk. Boy passes out. Boy's friends are assholes (yes, I was one of them). Boy gets dolled up. #2 WarCryGirl hosts Half-Nekkid Thursday. Since I am so late posting, I figure I would throw my picture in the pot. This i

Where Have I Been?

If my tubes were not tied, I would swear I was pregnant. I have felt so drained and sick to my stomach. This is the reason I have not been to all my favorite blogs the last two days. I plan on catching up today. I have decided to take the advice I got from Curtis and rotate my gravatars. If any of you, my darling blog friends, find something you think I might like, please e-mail it to me or post it on your site so I can save it to my own computer. Whew, that run-on sentence made me run out of breath. Chris Farley will be back. Don't you worry. Toni wanted to know how I changed my comment stuff. I logged into haloscan and went to settings to change the wording and add the kiss my ass gravatar. I then went to template to change the color and add my picture. Everyone should change to haloscan. There is a contest going on over at Sexy Mama Jenny's site . Go there. She might be able to help get your crappy site looking bootylicious. I am almost done with my entry. I need my site t

If I have offended, I apologize

I received this e-mail from a Suzie Wegner. It reads as follows. Your disgusting picture of the fat guy getting himself off is very tasteless, especially when you post it on other people's blog. What is the purpose, does it turn you on? Grow up and respect other people's sties. The name sounded familiar and I am assuming she me a dear relative of MSG Ronnie Wegner, whose site I visit and comment on often. Remember, it is an assumption. Please check out Ronnie's site. It is one of my absolute favorites. Apparently Mrs. Wegner is neither a fan of Chris Farley nor my sense of humor. I did decide to change my gravatar to something a little less harmless for the benefit of those sites that I comment on. If anyone else was offended by the late, great Chris Farley, I apologize. I hope you will help me select my new gravatar. I will post the options soon. Check back. Here are the options.

Help Select My Profile Picture

Okay, here are some choices. Let me hear your opinion. If you have a suggestion, e-mail it to me and I will add to the list.

Happy Birthday Katie

Today is Katie's sixteenth birthday. Please head over there and show her a little birthday love. Happy Birthday sweet girl . I hope you have fun at your party this evening and your card is on it's way. I am way behind.

It's is time for the Karnival Kidz.

This weeks Karnival is more than that, it's a party. Let's start the party off at Jen's Horde , by Jen. She shows us how to have a real "Potty Party". When you are ready, you can head over to The Jump Blog , by GoldFalcon and see how GoldFalconette is driving Daddy to party with her potty. Jen H. over at Iowa Geek ,shows how to have a party when your power goes out for four hours. Patticakes shows us David wearing the child's version of the proverbial lampshade. She said, "Yes, the garbage can was clean. I had just bought it. I don't remember what possessed him to put it over his head. Do kids need a reason?" Now, walk with me over to One Happy Dog Speaks , by VW Bug. There we can join Tater and Tot having a party on Tater's new bed. Over at Updates On My Soldier , by A Military Mom, they are celebrating Noah turning six. Be sure to wish him a Happy Birthday. The Common Room, by Deputy HeadMistress, is having a party of kisses that could tur

Just Me and Daddy

Emily has been having a hell of a time lately. Besides the eye issue, she has been having serious separation anxiety. I think she would climb back in the womb, if I'd let her. Clint has been trying to help the situation with a bit of Daddy and me time for Emily. Steven was not bothered in the least. Ethan, however, was not thrilled to share his Daddy with sis. I guess this is what happens when your wife gives birth to your clone. He really is mad that Daddy isn't paying attention to him.

Karnival of Kidz

DO NOT FORGET THE KARNIVAL OF KIDS!!! Sunday night at midnight is the deadline. Go HERE and fill out the submission form. Tess us a funny story about your kids. Already have, well dig through your archives and submit it. If you want a little more info, you can go HERE. If you do not submit an entry, you can go HERE to see the consequences.

What do you think?

I changed the looks of my comment screen. Offensive? What do you think? Clint is off covering a story for the paper. He is taking photos while jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. Skydiving!!! Will he come home? What do you think? Ethan broke himself of the pacifier about four days ago and Steven didn't have a single accident yesterday. I am so proud. What do you think? My neighbors on either side just got back from block leave last night. Amy's mom bought each of my kids an outfit and a toy. How sweet is that? Jennifer brought home a bug catching net for each kid and a bug house to hold the bugs. How sweet is that? My neighbors are better than your neighbors. Don't you think? I made it through every single blog on my blog roll today. Whew....that took awhile. I think I just love way too many blogs. what do you think? For those of you who have asked to be updated on Emily, she is doing much better. The swelling is gone (left some bruising) and you can see where a bite

T.G.I.F

Let's start with a little self portrait Friday. This is my morning cup of java and I. Clint got this coffee cup for free at work and it ended up being my favorite. After my coffee, Emily made me a delicious bowl of bacon. That later turned into a very lovely helmet. Guess who else played....... Erik Suzan Christie A Military Mom Cat Heather WarCryGirl Curtis Jody Meritt CrazyRideLady Al's Girl Sheri Barb Lisa Toni Mama Duck Jenny Jen H. Annie Kimberly Katie Stephen Christie #2 (not as in poop) Kate KGrams I am sorry I did not get to do Half Nekkid Thursday with you WarCryGirl . We got a bit of sad news yesterday and had to make a lot of calls and look into flights. We found out one of Clint's best friend has terminal cancer. She is one of the sweetest,kindest people you would ever meet. That makes it even more frustrating. Why, with all the dickheads out there, do we have to lose someone so nice? On a lighter note..... Please look no farther if you are not prepared for th

Wow!!! It's Wednesday.

Today is Wednesday. So much to do, so much to do. Let's get started. Wednesday's Wonder Blog: Jennifer's self titled blog, Jennifer's World is one of my most favorite blogs. Part of that is because she is one of my most favorite bloggers. Jennifer is a stay at home mom to two beautiful children. I swear, I am not just saying that. They are really adorable. She plays bingo ALL the time (wins quite often). She is also a huge fan of the Goonies and Harry Potter. I think one of the things I look forward to if I ever get the chance to meet her in person is to just sit and people watch. I bet she has all kinds of funny things to say. Oh yes, I also love the way she changes her blog look a lot. It is like rearranging furniture. Gives you that fresh feeling. So, if you are not feeling fresh, or just want to befriend one of the sweetest people on earth, you better go visit Jennifer. Way Back Wednesday: Mama Duck, over at the Kept Woman, is playing way back Wednesday today. I dec

What the hell is this?

Yesterday while Clint was home for lunch, we noticed Emily had a little bump by her eye. No big deal you say? Well, this morning she woke up looking like the elephant man. Me may have to convert to Catholicism. That way she can be a nun. Well, no one is going to marry her looking like this. Clint is taking her to the doctor this morning. I will give an update for those of you who care. Now, you would think living here on post, we live with many true Americans. You would be right. It takes an American to be this redneck, whitetrash. Hard to see? Well let me zoom in and lighten it for you. That's right folks. Need to move your grill? Just pop one of the kids in the trunk and have them pull it while you drive through the neighborhood. Oh wait, they could be entrepreneurs. They may be starting there own fast food delivery service. Hungry for a hot off the grill steak? Call 1-800-dip-shit.
