New posts
I colored my hair about a week ago.. and have never gotten around to posting it. I was just trying to hightlight it.. but turned out more like I had colored most of it.LOL
Well right now I am looking forward to getting our tax return as dh has said we can get a new Bigger Fridge!! And possibly even a dishwasher (yeah!!) And of course pay off some bills.
I ordered a few items off of Lane Bryant yesterday and did defer payment and we can pay for it with our tax return. Found out I am wearing the wrong bra.. Should be wearing a size 38F but I am still wearing 40DD. No wonder there is no support. LOL.

Feelings
Over the last few weeks I have gone through a wide range of feelings. I felt violated when our van was busted into, disbelief that it happened to us, dispare when I realized all they got when they stole from us, tired from filling out all the paperwork involved.. and now I am just plan Pissed that I am the one places are going after to get their money. It doesn't matter that I had the bank send them back with signed affidavits that they were forged, these people just want their money.
It makes me want to scream.. I'm the victim!!! I didn't write these $1,000's of dollars of checks.. stop harrasing me!! I mean it took me over 2 weeks just to prove I was me so I could get a flippin drivers license.
Top all that crude off with being sick, and having everyone else sick too!! So for the past 3 weeks we have been just barely able to deal with life.
The only good news is my meds must be working as I haven't crawled under a rock yet.
Oh and the officer I am working with is awesome!! She has even given me her home phone number if I discover something and want to share it with her!! How cool is that!!

Crazy last few weeks
Jan. 27th The kids and I went to the Kansas Museum of History in Topeka and while we were there (between 9 am and 11:40 am) our van was broken into. They smashed in the drivers side window and took the kids christmas present from Mamma and Papa.. portable dvd player... the dvd in it.. my purse (which had my life in it.. ss cards, drivers licenses, digital camera, cell phone.. etc). So the last few weeks have been trying to get everything replaced.. oh and dealing with Forgery problems wit the bank ( they have been sooo helpful) The theifs have just had a blast.. speant over $5,000!! So it is a felony theft now. The cops were able to get a print off of one of the checks so maybe that will help out.
Today I was FINALLY able to get a new drivers license.. change my number too!!
Plus on top of everything everyone but James has been sick with a viral sore throat.. so crabby people here!!
So there is my update.. not very happy news.

Sad day for the Coops
Today we lost our beloved fur child Fuzzy one of our Guinea Pigs.. he has been with us for 2 years. He hadn't been acting right and I called the pet store yesterday and he suggested I wait for 24 hours before I call the vet. So this morning I woke up to him just laying still and "mewing" in pain.. I called the vet they suggest I get some gaterade and some white mineral oil to help him out.Thought he was just constipated or something. So we left to go and get the items.. took about 2 hours in all.. by the time we came back home.. it was too late. Fuzzy was gone. I knew I should have insisted on taking him in last night.. but I figured the people knew what they were talking about.
So tonight we will lay him to rest over by Eli (another fur child that passed on)..waiting on Dad to get home to dig the hole. I am very saddened by this as I picked Fuzzy out.. although they were presents for the children I still feel as though My heart has a hole in it.

Closet caper
As I was sitting in here on the phone to my "teacher" at the home office trying to figure out the loaner computer they gave me. I heard this THUD and the girls went running out of my room. The twins has decided to hide in the girls closet...and they TRIED to crawl up to the shelve in the closet.. needless to say my little junk shelve was pulled out of the closet.. out of the wall.. and all the girls clothes.. not to mention all of out T.P. is now all over the floor of the closet.
I am seeing RED!!!! And when daddy gets home.... I don't want to be around.. as he will be seeing RED!! So now we will have to fix the girls closet.. or just go buy some totes or something..I don't like the idea of folding up the girls dresses.. but we might have too for a while. AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Venting.. bad day
I really wanted to Kick dh's butt for the last few days and tonight just set me off even more. He has been in a snit ever since his truck stopped working last week. He is pissed off at me for a few other reasons.. one I deserve but the other is just plan stupid. I have let the girls do the dishes in there cleaned bathtub a few times. .. well Monday they decieded to do some cups.. well they filled the tub and left the cups in there. Dh found them and chewed my butt good for it. Personally I thought it was no big deal.. whaaaaaaaa for him.
Tonight we bboy got hurt he threated to kick michaels butt if he pushed him off the bed.. ok didn't say that.. but the point was Michael was going to be in big trouble.. and his butt would hurt. Well while I was getting b boy dressed and the other kids were getting dressed Jason was so upset he threw up all over a pile of clothes in their room. Dh got pissed off about that.. I called his mom to see if she could come and help out with the kids so both dh and I could be with bboy in the ER.. guess what.. he got PO"d at that too!! Well she called back and asked if she could just take the kids to her house while we were at the ER.. he said fine.. then threw the phone accross the room.. I'm surprised the thing still works!!
He is just being an ass.. and I saw him head into the boys room before we left.. and was yelling.. I yelled, "don't you touch him or I'll be kicking your ASS!!"
He hasn't talked to me really all night.. just acting like this is all my fault that all this crap is going on.. Kiss my butt baby!!
Sorry I am in a horrible mood.. and am venting.

New Updates..lol.
It's been awhile since I posted. I did finally get to bake my cookies..made about 4 dozen cookies, and 9 pumpkin pies, 2 dozen banana muffins, about 3 dozen Breakfast burritos. Took all but 3 pumpkin pies to Salina.
Our visit with family was lots of fun.. well for the most part it was. We stayed at a hotel for 2 days and did lots of swimming.. they have an indoor slide and I finally conqured my fears and went down it.. several times. It is high and twisty.
I now need to get back in the game of school. Speaking of which.. speech thearapist finally called and we take the boys in next friday for the first meeting. Yeah!! Can't wait to get that started.. the boys are kind of excited.

I Had big plans to bake some cookies the other day.. so went and got the tub of cookie dough and I find that all of it is almost gone. Oh i was upset. So now I have to make up some. Oh well. I have decided to bake pumpkin pies and more cookies. I'm also going to be making up some more breakfast burritos, and muffins.. that way to save some $$ for when we go to Thanksgiving in salina.

You ever just want to stop the madness?
Weird post title huh? There are days when I just feel like I am going around and circles and not getting anywhere. Kind of like a dog spinning in circles trying to catch his tail... pointless. These last few days it seems like I am getting nothing doen. no school, no housework.. it's crazy. Now I know I have done some school, and I do housework.. but seems like not enough.
Dh got a great deal on some T.P. from work as they ordered the wrong kind and couldn't send it back.. so now I have 3 cases of 36 rolls sitting in my entry way... need to find some way to store it. So I feel like the house is a mess as that is what you see when you walk in.
I speant over an hour yesterday decluttering the girls clothes... so I have two big trashbags full of clothes to give away. But at least now the girls and see what clothes they have to wear.. and it's all clothes that they will wear. I went through and put all the boys summer clothes away and organized their clothes... again. GGGGEEEEzZzzz when will they be old enough to know .. take your dirty clothes to the laundry area????? It gets tiring having to tell them all the time.... and if I don't check.. I end up with no laundry... till I go search their rooms. UUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!
And people wonder why I am so absentminded???? It got tired of the madness and left!!

Finally Friday
Oh the joy of finding out good news!! I can fit into smaller clothes!! A friend gave me some clothes .. that I figured would just fit my daughters.. but for the fun of it I tried a dress on and it FIT!! Whoo HOO!!
Plus my child support posted today... which meant I could fill up the gas guzzler.. That took way to much $$$$$!!
But then I look online.. and one of the companies I work for will be sending me out a check that was bigger than what I thought it would be!! Happy Day!!
Tonight I have to go and two assignments at Wal-mart, acutally I have 3.. but I think that would take to long.. so will do 2 tonight and then the other next week. Plus I have like 4 or 5 from other companies to do this month!!
And what do I do with this extra money.... I buy groceries!! Sometimes I use it on something special for the kids. But mainly to help out with groceries.
