I can't believe I let so many days go by without posting, oops! I'm sorry ladies, I promise I'll get it back together soon and get back to regular posting and visiting.
I have been fighting the flu or something for several days, and I just can't seem to kick it, the past couple of days tho my glands have been terribly swollen and are making swallowing almost impossible, almost makes me think my tonsils came back lol I've stayed pretty well zonked on Nyquil, it keeps me awake alot, but I'm staying pretty well dazed and confused lol I dozed off around 7 last night and then woke up after 11 with what felt like a hangover rofl I'm guessing that's what it was anyway, I've never had a "real" hangover in my life, even when I was younger and did my fair share of drinking on weekends.
Anyway..enough of that mess.. I have closed my Adoption Haven for awhile, and may make the closing permanent, I am just so mad and hurt I could scream. I ordered & paid for a custom back in July, and I have been screwed over by the artist, I haven't gotten it, she is ignoring my emails, I know she is reading them thanks to a cool lil program, and she won't give me my money back, and since it's been over 30 days I can't file a complaint with paypal! I guess only time will tell if I will ever have the heart to re-open the shoppe tho, but if I do it will be a good long while *sigh*
I know I'm late, but...better late than never lol
Does your husband help you out with the house work?
yes
Does your husband do things without being asked first?
most of the time, he's been slacking of a bit lately tho, I think he secretly likes my nagging lol
What is his best quality?
I don't think I could pic just one thing, he's sweet, caring, gentle, I could keep going..he's known as "the perfect husband" and he would give me the moon if I asked for it
What is the most romantic thing he has ever done?
hmm, this one is a toughy...I can't pick just one, to me it's all the little things that matter more than just one thing
How long have you been together?
almost 10 years!!
1. What vehicle do you drive?
1996 Ford F-150 extended cab
2. How long have you had it?
3 years or so
3. What is the coolest feature on your vehicle?
I don't know how to answer this one lol but probably my favorite thinng would be my dual exhaust, I love the rumble! lol
4. What is the most annoying thing about your vehicle?
I pretty much like everything about my truck, the only thing I wish it had was seats like I had in the Grand Prix, they were like a 7 way power
5. If money were no object, what vehicle would you be driving right now?
I change my mind so often lol but maybe a Cadillac Escalade or maybe the new Nissan Armada

BRRR! Dadgum it's cold! The frost was so thick yesterday you would've sworn it had snowed! Today has been so windy it's pathetic, I swear I think we went from melt-down dead of summer to just flat out winter! where are the normal temps for fall? I mean honestly what is with this 37 degree temps? ugh! We went to Wal-mart yesterday to get some buttons and a few other things, we found Angela a new pair of shoes, they are Disney Princess sneakers with zippers & lights, and let me tell you she thinks she's the stuff with those lol after we tried them on her she wouldn't let us try on anything else, once she makes up her mind that's it lol I figured since it was so cold they would have the jammies out, I felt like Elmer Fudd, "be vewwwy quiet, I'm huntin jammies" lol, but don't you know they didn't have a single flannel or even long sleeved thing! shoot I'm liable to freeze waiting on them lol
We were over in the freezer section getting some pizzas and this lady went by with a lil one, oh about 4 maybe, in the cart and this child was having an all out screaming hissy fit, well do you think Miss Angela could let that pass? of course she couldn't! lol she yelled out, "Shut up baby!", omg I could have just died right there, I was embarrassed but fighting the laughter, we got on to her and told her that wasn't nice, well she looked right pitiful for a minute then looked up pointed and whispered, "Mimi good, baby loud" lol
We decided we would have Chinese yesterday, I seldom eat Chinese, maybe once or twice a year, but oh it was sooo good! anyway, on the way there Angela yells at us, "I WANT A BURGER!" now we hadn't given her burgers before, so here we go to Dairy Queen, why Greg picked there is beyond me lol, when we get in the parking lot she says, "Mommy, I want cheeseburger", Greg went in and got her one with only cheese so there wouldn't be a huge mess, and omg! she ate almost the whole thing by herself! if the bun hadn't been so thick I think she would've been able to eat it all! My little baby is growing up too fast! I have cried my eyes out a dozen times since yesterday, part of it is pride that she's being such a big girl, but the other part of me wants to hang on to her just the way she is..sounds kinda silly maybe, but I'm sure most of ya'll understand. I guess I'm just an ol sap lol
Today has been kinda depressing, I went to mom's after I dropped the kids off, to get her to help me with a pattern, and well basically we both ended up mad. I don't know what her deal was today but she was loud & kinda grumpy, I had a splitting migraine that wouldn't quit in the first place, and she was talking so loud you might as well call it yelling, I told her I'm sitting right here, no sense in yelling, you can yell when I get home and I'll be able to hear you just fine then, well she got in a huff, but yet if I get louder than a mumble she says I'm yelling..anyway..Greg called my cell to let me know he was home and was gonna make some Jambalaya, well he ended up calling back to tell me it was almost finished while I was trying to get out the door, and when he called back that ticked her off *sigh* well then she wanted me to bring home some apples, I don't know what kind they are, they're like a greenish-yellow color, I only eat red ones, so of course that ticked her off when I told her I didn't like that kind. Oh, and let us not forget the biggest bone of contention today..basically she thinks I'm "off the beam" or something for starting with the teddy bears and the other stuff I'm gonna be making, when I explained it all to her, that the basic plan is for it to be a business with a friend, she told me it was just plain silly. enough of that tho...
Angela has kept us entertained again today lol she bummed jambalaya from Greg and then when he finished his he got a massive bowl of ice-cream, he's trying to blow my half-way diet lol, she ended up choosing jambalaya OVER ice-cream! can you believe that! she came over and sat with mommy and bummed til it was all gone lol I thought it was just too cute & funny that she picked the spice over the sweet lol
