wow what a difference a night out makes in the life of a stay at home mom! I woke up exauhsted … howw do you spell that?
but by ten o’clock i felt top of the world,
last night me and my bestest bud went to walmart ~ at this time i feel the need to comment on a comment LOL
~ said…
you know it’s bad when you go to Walmart for rest and relaxation - just walking in that place gives me a headache! lol ~
now web, i love your blog, but it seems pretty clear ot me you havent had kids yet! Walmart has everything, when you have one day to do two weeks worth of shopping, you have to take advantage of every second, exspecially when you have three very noisy and rambunctios boys “helping” you shop!
i love walmart, not just the prices, but the whole “everything is here” part. it truly is a fun time for me! ( and i really appriciate the comments web, cus it lets me know ppla re reading my blog , so thanks!)
anyway me and nikki went to walmart and for um an hour or maybe more just shopped, now by shopped i dont mean we bought lots! oh no, thats not how you do it, you walk around, makin g fun of everything and everyone! and hating all the skinny ppl outfits!
so i needed to get a skirt last night ( couldnt find one) and i needed butterscotch chips, ( who knew peanutbutter marshmallw cakey thingy had butterscotch chips??? not me!)
i was supposed to get diapers but forgot OOPS, i jsut realised this LOL
oh well
i also got 2 meters of fuzzy pink fleece, in the spftest babyiest shade there was, ( 19.98) and then i re read the instructuions on my patern and realised not only did i not need 2 meters i needed less then one! well im not going to pay 20 bux for what i dont need so i thought ill leave it on this shelf and go get the pink fuzzyness another day ! BUT me and nik saw that they had fleece blankets… hmmmmm… LIGHTBULB in the head time!
so we pickled up this blanket and it sso cute im concerned that it is mostly blue but i think with some creative cutting it will be fine
got some interfacing , and some elastic and some thread and byy damn im gonna make this coat!
opps wait
i took the pattern out this morning and realised that i have never ever followed a [pattern before and i was hopelessly outa my leauge! now dont get me wrong i have swen a lot of things! but i make my own pattern. Dont fear there is a hope in sight i am going to my grandmas on sunday and she can sew anything … she sewed my wedding dress and it was the most beautiful thing ever!
so back to my night out
we went to the VIY , its LOL laff if you must! its a coffee shotp attatched to the gas staition cus if anything, we are classy girls!
we had fries with gravy and i had coffee, nik wanted her normal iced tea but they had none so she got a green tea… wonder how it tastes…
nik’s hot water came in the little metal “tiny tea pot” like things… know what i mean?
the ones that are so darn minuature and cute i jsut want to stuff it in my purse take it home and name it norm… someday i will… unless an officer of the law reads this, in which case i am joking and this should in no way be construed as the premeditation of petty theft
i dont think nik enjoyed her tea tho.. instead of a cute innocent tea pot of hot water she got a mean evil one, it had some sort of internal fatle flaw that made it spew boiling water over the top every time she poured it! now that makes no sense, the spout hole attatched to the body of the container is below the top of it, so the water SHOULD come out the spout, not out the top. and dont go saying it was just too ful, these cute lkitte things only hold a cup and a half of water.. why dont they resize them to hold two cups .. just a thought. Anyway nik had already poured one cup so the thing is a third or so filled only.. yea i want to know W T F ! im pretty sure it was possessed!
I also got to indulge in one of MY fatle little flaws… scratch lottery tickets…. i know its a waste of money but i LOVE them!
i bought a monopoly ( 3 bux) a biungo ( 3 bux) and a ummm oh a pool pne thing( 2 bux) didnt win a cent but had some good conversation while scratching them!
i love my family, i really really do , but there is somehting about going out with a girlfriend and just being… alone.. if that makes sense. best case senario would be to have a sitter and be able to tak ehubby along with us…
anyway i had fun, i love walmart some teapots are evil, and um i bought and succesfully hid a package of ferrero rochers in the car for micah to find ont he way to work thismorning
and the timing was great as we woke late and he didnt have time for breakfast !
i am so great
ok now

right now i am killing my “diet” by eating strawberry flavored wafer cookies ~ but htey are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good!

wet socks you say
now why would he have wet socks, soaked boots jeans and windpants? …. hmmm he sias he got splashed by ” accident” walkinghome from school. as the wet starts about mid thigh to his boot bottoms and is positivly dripping AND a cirtain nana and papa drove by and SAW him splashing / jumping SWIMMING in the puddles im more inclined to beleive he is lying
oh well
not a lot i can do about it now
my throat is sore, i am getting a cold

check back soon, i have a vidio of baby krysta SNORING i will be uploading htta either late tonioght or tommorrow AM!
hannah arrived at my house acting like she had eaten a bucket of sugar, well no not hyper cus hyper kids are usually into things and rotten little buggers , hannah was NOT bad , she was just… happy… really really really happy! but now its almost 11 and she started to cry and with ahnnah, the conisure ( sp?) of hugs, usually a hug makes everyhitng ok in her world, not today , i took her upstairs away from the noise of the other kids and hte yv and tried the hug again and she thru her first temper tantrum… oh dear… ok ok ill admit it, it was cute, she dropped to the floor and screemed and banged her little feet, so i ignored her , like the books say ( ignoreing does NOT work for logans tantrums LOL), so i was checking my ham in the oven when she decided she wansnt getting nuff attention, next thing i knew she was jumpuing/falling off the couch onto the floor and crying even harder, i got a wet cloth and held it on her cheeks and hte back of her neck hoping hte cold would snap her out of it , but then she looked up at me , still all sad and crying and said “nana nigh nigh” so we went back onthe couch and she laid down and was still sniffling, but with her eyes shut when i came back down…. not what i really like, napping befor enoon, but the poor baby is tired so i will let it go this time, she will just eat lunch later then normal
now my sister has called and i have to sign off and go for a smoke while we talk

supper was awsome, right in the middle of grace , Logan turned and tossed his cookies all ofer his dad and the floor and his chair LOL
what a great start, the minute he finished he said “hungry” so we fed him some food LOL
no more puke
so supper was corn ( kernal of course)
some wonderfully seasoned hash browns, ohhh and they were perfectly cokked, not too soggy not too hard, why don’t mine ever go like that ?
the ,meat , some sory of pork product was wonderful, tender not dry at all, and was cooked in BBQ sauce… i really really have to do that !
so supper was great but i came home to blake with a fever logan still throwing up and parker upset cus he had homework and didnt get to play
plus i have oodles and oodles of laundry to do
first load is already folded and the second is inthe dryer third in the washer, i estimate only about 4 more loads left
uggggggg
but on the bright side, micah emptied the litter box AND swept the floor AND put away all the toys from the basement
ahh life

I’m getting a treat tonight ~ i dont have to cook supper! yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy
can you tell this makes me happy?
i took a ham out of the deepfreeze yesterday and on the advice of the hubby, put it in the refrigerator to defrost.. its still rock hard frozen, we will not be having it for supper like i planend. Telling my tale of ham-woe to the MIL resulted in an invitation to supper at thier house
mmmm good food and no supper dishes , life is good
i made an apple cake which is by far the fasted and easiest thing to cook in the world.
( i hate apples tho :o( )
so somehting is wrong with my dishwasher
i love my dishwasher it does my job! but for hte past week it has leaked orange goo… yup orange..
but see i pre wash my dishes ( lol dont laff its impossible to get dishwaser dried on food off ~ and by prewashing i never have that issue)
i jsut leave my dirty dishes in a sink full of water overnight and load up my washer the next morning … afternoon… day after that whenever i run out of dishes LOL
im hoping my dad will look at it cus me and hubby have no knowledge of dishwashers LOL
anyway hubby will be home soon, and i have to go potty ( dont u hate how , after you have been around kids awhile, you start talking like them?)
anyways i really do have to go so
