National Teenage Driving Safety Week...

...too bad no one told the girl who ran into me.

The Sweet, Sweet Smell of...

NOTHING! A week ago Thursday, I got down on my hands and knees, and with my face in my shirt, scrubbed the boys bathroom floor. For hours!. Okay, not really. For about 45 minutes, though. Friday afternoon, they went to their dads, and didn't return until Wednesday evening. We spent all day Thursday at Disneyland, and they returned to their dad's on Friday. For A WEEK AND A HALF there hasn't been the reek of ammonia coming from down the hall. It's been lovely. I've missed the guys terribly, but it's been nice to not have to hold my breath every time I walk down my hallway. They are coming home tomorrow, so I think I will walk up and down the hallway several times today, just to inhale the sweet nothingness. Seriously. God gave them perfect little (sorry) aimers. What's with the peeing on the floor/wall/counter/bathtub/light fixtures? I just don't get it.

Why I Don't Blog Anymore

I LOVE getting comments on my blog. Lately, all I've gotten are spamish comments. I don't know what they are all about. They always say Click here or Click here. Yeah, right. Like I'm going to click there. STOP IT! It's pissing me off!!!

I've Seen My Future!

To My Friends

I'm sure you've all seen this before, but I think it's great!

To my best friends, I promise these 10 things:
1. When you are sad — I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.
2. When you are blue — I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you. I’m the Heimlich queen.
3. When you smile — I will know you are plotting something that must include me.
4. When you are scared — I will rag on you about it every chance I get until you have no more fear.
5. When you are worried — I will tell you stories about how much Worse it could be until you quit complaining.
6. When you are grumpy — I will pop the backs of your knees with mine until you fall down laughing.
7. When you are confused — I will use little words.
8. When you are sick — Stay the hell away from me until you are well. I don’t want whatever you have.
9. When you fall — I will help you up but not before I point and laugh at your clumsy ass.
10. When you have to pee — Don’t look at me, I don’t follow other women to the rest room.
This is my oath…. I pledge it to the end. “Why?” you may ask; “because you are my friend”.
Friendship is like peeing in your pants, everyone can see it,But only you can feel the true warmth.

Reason 4,932,875 Why I Love Bill

In the middle of a very stressful day, Bill came over. He saw that I had had about as much as I could take, and knew that I still had tae kwon do, dinner, and Robbie's tutoring to deal with. He told me to go lay down, and he would take the guys to their TKD lesson. He said to lay down and not do anything. I agreed. Next thing I knew, I was waking up to a Robbie kiss and his sweet little raspy voice saying, "Mommy, we're home." It was 40 minutes of much needed rest. Thank you, honey. I love you!

A Year of FUN!

Now, at Sea World, you buy a day, get 2008 for free!! WOO HOO! Bill and I spent a great day checking it out. If you haven't been in a while, GO!


Silly Billy

Is Robbie A Man?

Can this 8 year old boy finish off the Macho Combo Burrito? It's over a pound of yumminess.....

Pretty good job, my dear boy!

One Reason To Love Riverside

Where else but southern California can you run through the sprinklers in February?






Even the dog joined in!

10 Things About Me

1. It drives me crazy that my DVDs are no longer in ABC order. I tried, but there really is no point to redoing it over and over again when you have little boys. Serious waste of time.

2. I join online book clubs so all my books will be EXACTLY the same size.

3. I absolutley HATE trying on clothes in the store.

4. I still get mad when I get home and my new clothes don't fit me.

5. I love the smell of puppy breath.

6. I have a super case of road rage. So much that my son asked my sister, "Why are there only idiots on the road when you or my mom drive?"

7. I am addicted to breaking news. Even though they say the same things over and over and over and show the same pictures over and over and over.

8. I am an AMAZING singer when no one can hear me.

9. I have to be completely covered up to my chin to be able to fall asleep.

10. I've lost about 14 pounds in the last two months!

Did ya know all that?

Funny Cameron

Check out how my son spells 'we'. Awsome!

My Celebrity Look-Alikes

Robbie Rocks!

Robbie passed his belt test! He is now recommended blue belt. Not bad at all, especially considering he had a fever! Isn't he handsome?

OOhhhhhh! Pretty!

Cameron asked me why, if God promised to never flood the world again, was it raining. Kids are funny.

I Said No!

Sob. Today when I left the grocery store, a boy was out front. He was selling a 7 week old Begal puppy. It was all I could do to walk away, but I did it. I'm SO regretting it! I tried to comfort myself by petting my dog, but she just looked at me and sighed and put her head down. She didn't even get up. That sweet puppy would have! You'd better watch it, Chloe!

Ummm

I'm sorry, but I kind of have a problem with this. In case it's too small, it says, "Jesus loves you but I'm his favorite". Is it just me, or is this just wrong?

Not Much Better

If you haven't read my last blog, read that one first.......All caught up? You may continue.

Now, Robbie is watching A Haunting. I watched it a few times when he began to show an interest in the show. We've talked about how we don't believe in ghosts, and how they don't really haunt us, and how dead people can't hurt us. He knows that. I know that. It just strikes me as funny that my 8-year-old is watching exactly the same thing I would have loved to watch at his age. I think I'll start his subscription to the Dean Koontz Fan Club.

Thanks, CN

Thanks to this terrible channel, Robbie now wants to fart into a balloon to fill it up. This was someones brilliant idea of children's television. He has found is science project for the rest of his school career. I'm so proud.

The Mop

For those of you who read my mom's blog, and saw my comment about the amazing new mops we got, here is the picture of my mop head after moping my hall, entryway, kitchen, and dining room. Pretty nast, huh?

Merry Christmas, So Cal!

Guess what I drove over today!!

Finally, after all this time, the connector from the 215 to the 60 is OPEN!!!

I couldn't believe it, either!!!
