01/23/2004 Archived Entry: "bad blogger"
I reckon they oughta just take me out and shoot me! I'm sorry for being such a terrible blogger *hanging head in shame* I really meant to post before now, but everytime I thought about it I was in the middle of something and then I just totally forgot about it. When ya think about it tho it's no wonder I'm senile with Greg being home 2 extra days & nights and the kids being out of school an extra day lol
Last Friday after school I took Angela to mom's and then came back and picked up Greg & the other 2 kiddies and I drove them down to the farm, that is usually Greg's job, but his car caught on fire Friday afternoon so I wasn't real thrilled about him going anywhere without me, the car is fine tho and so is sweet-pea!
Saturday we got up kinda early and waited for Waymond to show up then we loaded up and headed for Nashville. We went to Opry Mills Mall and did a bit of shopping, picked up a few new books, video games, and searched high and low for a special angel that I've been hunting since at least December. I tried to find me some new Nike's but nobody had the right ones and nobody outside the mall had my size *sigh*. We grabed a bite in the food court and then went and hung out at the arcade inside Opry Mills, they have a bar and restaurant inside the arcade so we played a bit, I beat both the guys! lol then we went over to the bar and I had a strawberry daiquiri to celebrate beating the 2 giants lol (they're giants to me ;) with my sweetie at 6' 5 1/2' and Waymond at 6' 1", and then midget me at a whopping 5' 0" on tippytoes, with shoes)
We headed to Kentucky from there and I dozed a bit on the way tho it wasn't easy with those two chattering away and scaring the daylights out of me everytime I got comfy lol then we headed back to Nashville and did a bit more shopping, without much success. I have been craving white beans and hushpuppies from Uncle Bud's so we stopped in there and it was literally nothing to write home about! It was the worst I've ever had from there, so we are heading to "the good one" up in Pigeon Forge in a few weeks. We finally got home around midnight or a little after and then the guys played video games until like 6 am! lol Waymond left and we went to bed and managed to sleep all day and not do anything we had planned on Sunday. I got up somewhere around 2 Sunday afternoon, Greg was still snoring away, so I got ready and went and picked up Angela and came on back home. We all 3 got cleaned up and headed to Shoney's around 8 or so that night and had planned to hit Wal-Mart but it was just so blooming cold we came back home.
Are ya still with me? lol This has been a pretty calm week, I've been working on some custom graphics, and a few of my new "characters" and some html so I can get some updating done, and laundry. I've been dealing with colds and then everyone passing them on to me, and now Greg has an ear infection, and as old as he is this is the first one he's ever had! and he is not a pretty site lol I don't mean that to sound mean, it's just that the boy doesn't do well with pain lol He asked me how I can keep from going to the dr and stuff when I have them, well gee dear I had 3 babies and I have endo. an ear infection is nothing to me rofl this comment of course caused lots of eye-rolling lol
Oh yeah before I forget! Andrea asked if I was back to showers rofl! yes, dear I am, but I'm still not wild about waiting til it's dark! rofl @ my own sillyness ;)

Hi Aretha! Oh my your post was so interesting to read. I never heard of most places you went to, the only states I visited in the USA was Texas and Florida. I never been anywhere else in the USA. I also read your Thursday Tattle and I am sad to hear about your in-laws. Be glad you live in seperate states! What is wrong with being a SAHM? If I had kids I would be happy if my hubby would make enough money to feed us all!!! Hugs, Nicole
P.S. Men are never good dealing with pain. TRUST ME!!!

Hi Aretha! Glad to see your post. Sounds like you've been doing some "running about". Were you successful in any of your searches? Just making my rounds this am. Stay warm.
