one cereal, many bowls

I was eating some cereal this evening and realized that depending on which cereal I am eating decides which bowl I use. My husband has one particular bowl that he used strictly for cereal eating and I am the opposite. For example, When I eat a flaky cereal I use a white corelle bowl. If I am eating an "o" shaped cereal, I use I small grayish white with a off color red stripe. It made up of some kind of crockery. If its kind of pebbly, puffy, crunchy, krispy, cracklin' sweet cereal I use a regular plastic type bowl. Narrow bottom, big hole. Old butter bowls.

Below is a list of a few of my favorite cereals......

#1 is definitely Froot Loops. It is the best of the loopy, round cereals.

Even Straight Outta the Box.

#2 is Peanut Butter Crunch. ONLY the best peanut nutty nut cereal ever.

#3 Cheerios. Just plain Ol' good eats.

#4 Sugar Crisp. The Ultimate Sugar High. To be eaten by major sweet tooths only.

#5 (Insert Drum Roll here..) Frosted Mini Wheats. Bite Size. Sweet and Crunchy. What a combo!

time for some changes up in here...

Yes Folks, Its time for some changing and the changing will occur next Sunday.

We are finally moving out of my dads house. I am so looking forward to this its not funny. We are moving in with a friend of mine that I work with. He has a spare room that we can use and our rent is going to help him with his house payment..or at least I reckon it will. He only lives maybe 10 minutes away from where we work, which will be nice when it comes to gas. A ten minute drive compared to a 45 minute drive. Its a no-brainer. And not to mention getting away from my dads flatulous self. I know he is old but damn! he doesn't have to be so eecky crude.

I found yesterday that my eldest sisters' divorce was final and she is not doing to well at all. I know that divorces can be rough (I've went through one myself) but alot of her well-being she has done to herself. Well, for one she has gotten her addicted to pills. She has showed them to me and I've seen her pay for them by using her food stamps. My sister used to be a really good person. She took care of her kids better than herself and gave them anything she could. Ok. She spoiled them. But now she can barely take care of herself or her kids. And I know them kids know something is not right about her. They know their mother.

I went down there this past summer with the intention of watching her kids while she got off the pills. But she just wouldn't do it, so I came home a week early. I couldn't stand that I came 6 hours from Ohio to be with her and she couldn't get off the damn phone long enough to speak to me for a few minutes. It was crazy. So I said "enough, I'm going home." I now know that at this point in her addiction she is going to have to hit rock bottom and lose everything that she loves to realize that she has a problem and she needs help with it. Until then I can't do a damn thing. So I will love her from afar and tough it will be for her and me.

does she think of me?

I was just sitting and here and I started thinking of my sister, Julie. I haven't seen or talked to her in a little over 3 years. Not because I haven't wanted to its just that we somehow lost contact with each other. One of these days.......


Tonight at work was rather slow and boring. It seemed like the night dragged forever. It was such a looooonnng night. Eric doesn't work all this week and it sucks. Eric and I annoy the heck out of each just purely for the funniness of it. I pick on him like he was one of my younger brothers. Its funny. So an interesting week it shall be....

The hubby and I had a somewhat exciting weekend. On Saturday we actually left the house and met up with a friend, then went to another friends house and celebrated 420 for awhile. After that we actually went to the mall but didn't really go into the mall part of the mall. Went to Kohl's and got hubby some pants, a shirt, and some boxer briefs (must have for well-equipped manly men). We finally made it back home and lo and behold, no boxer briefs in the bag. So now we have to go back to the mall but not really go in and get his boxer briefs. After we get home and I cook dinner. We eat. Hubby and I celebrated 420 again. Then a little while later got our freak on! Yes! It was absolutely amazing. This man who is 44 years old and starting to feel his age just doesn't to remember that he keeps making our love-making even better and better. I have no need to look anywhere else to fulfill my needs because there is no one, no one out there, that just can't compare. Just Can't.

arrghhh...the sweet smell of a brunette

My pirate name is:

Mad Ethel Rackham

Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

Get your own pirate name from fidius.org.

squeak! whats that smell?

Well, I've gone and done it. Truly, folks, I've went and had a brainfart. A real one in true non-blonde style. I say non-blonde because I'm a brunette. *snicker*.. This is what happened......

The following story is true. No names have been changed to protect the innocent.

Tonight, I thought it would be funny to call Chris at work and ask him if he had any round tables for sale and then hang up. He would've known who it was and would've laughed and then called me a smartass. So I went and got the phone, dialed the number, asked Eric to put Chris on, when it dawned on me, that Chris wasn't working tonight, thats tomorrow night. I was DERRRRRR!!! Eric reminded me that if Chris was there working then I would be there too! Major DUHHH! I had a total brainfart and knew it and proceeded to tell Debbie what I had done to which her response was "dumbass!".

Well, thats what happened in my own words.

Fellow Brunettes....."don't hurt me." ok....maybe a little...teehee.

she's done it again....

The start to another great work week. I am off tomorrow. YEAH !!! for me but I do have to work this friday night though.

We had a great weekend with the kiddos. They are so funny. When we was at Isaac's football game saturday afternoon one of his teammates asked if Rob, Isaac's step-dad was his Grandpa. It was hilarious, not for Rob but for me it was. I laughed my head off. I couldn't help myself. The thing is Rob doesn't look like a grandpa since he colored his hair last weekend so all the gray is gone. I can't say anything though, I colored my hair too!

Tomorrow on my day off I plan on not doing anything unless I want to do it. Im gonna sit in my room watch tv and crotchet some baby stuff for a girl at work.

My red-headed sister came over today. She is having another problem with her car. ITs not funny but it is. I personally think its the way she's driving it but who can say for sure.

being at home...

Today is my adoptive Dad's Birthday...Happy Birthday Dad!! You rock!! And your still older than me..nanananannaanaa....


Last night after work the hubby and I went to Eric and Debbie's to have a little fun. Chris from work came too. We did some drinking and played Darts. Chris won the first game and hubby won the second game, but Eric, Chris and I kept playing. Eric came in second and I beat Chris by throwing a Bullseye!! I couldn't believe it!! I am looking forward to working with Chris this coming Tuesday so I can rub it in....lol

Let's Celebrate!!!

Hubby got the car fixed!!!!! Its running like a top!! Come to find out it was the simplest of things too! The freaking spark plugs!!! 3 of the were burned completely out. Im not to good on my mechanics lingo...LOL Last night on the way home we stopped on a dark strip of road and raised the hood and he revved the engine and it was our personal light show. The sparks were arcing all over the place...it was kind of pretty. But now that he replaced the plugs and wires no more pretty light show for me...LOL

I'm not sure and I don't know why

I'm not sure and I don't know why things are the way they are, they just are. I haven't really had a lot to say of late. I guess I just haven't sat done and let my self get deep in thought.

Work is they same ol' same ol'. There has been some drama, I just don't let myself get involved in it because its stupid.

Sometimes I wish hubby and I had friends we could actually do things with. That would be nice. He did ask me if I wanted to go out this weekend see a movie or something and all I could say is "I don't know." We really should go and do something so we aren't sitting here all weekend bored out of our gourds cause that is what will happen come tomorrow. He has been working on the car all day trying to get it running again. We drove it over to Milford and the back right brake started smokin'. Guess its time to change that one. So he gets to do that tomorrow. We did get the little metal key thing to stick in the fuse panel to see what error code we get from the computer on the car and found out it could be one of 3 different sensors. So he is getting the least expensive one and trying that and then move on the to the next one if it isn't. He told me which ones they were but I can't remember all the mechanical mumbo jumbo. Some things on the car I understand other things I will just the man handle.

I am fixing potato soup for dinner and listening to my Monster Ballads CD....I got it turned up real loud because right now nobody is here except for me...The decibel level is going to reach new heights....not to high cause it just might shake this poor ol house apart...LOL not really funny but it is in a way.

little of this little of that....

Rob is recovering well from his surgery. We go on wednesday for a follow up to make sure everything is going ok and to get the full pathology report from the lump they removed.

He is finally starting 2nd shift today! We will finally be able to spend some time together. Since he was on 1st shift and I on 2nd's we didn't get much and we don't do well without seeing each other. It was hard missing him so much but now things will be much better now. My schedule at work is going to change a little bit. I will have to start working every other friday which is fine I don't mind. As long as I still get my hours. Its work I shall do it.

I was sick this past weekend which i got from my dad he was sick on thursday and it wasn't pretty. But it only lasted a day so that was good. Hopefully I won't get sick anymore this winter. knock on wood.
