I'm so excited! and other stuff...

I am so freaking stoked!! (not in the stoned way...)

As you know my brother and his other, are getting married but, that's not what is getting my goat. My Sister (Hey Les!!) and our cousin (Hi J and JP) may be heading out to Majestic Minnesota to visit and attend!!! Hells Yeah!! I sure hope it comes through and they really do make it out. I wouldn't have to much to show them, maybe fishing or something but to be honest the only thing out here to see is , well, ME!! hehehee

OK I am now over it. In other news, the days are getting warmer, sunnier, and all around more fanfuckingtastic. I have a refill of my xanax, and am weaning of my paxil, hoping all goes well and I have NO MORE panic attacks.

I finished my one landscaping project (with the exception of one "bush" to plant, a purple dome Aster) and it will be on to the other area. I have to move post, left by my wonderful husband, and then amend the soil, dig the edging and place it, lay landscaping fabric, buy more plants to plant, plant, mulch. Viola! done.

If it only were as easy as it sounds. The only thing that is putting me on hold is my paycheck. as soon as the funds come in, I will be able to purchase all the pretties I need for the season.

I also need to finish planting my garden. Holy Crap I am off on that. I planted potatoes, onions, a few heads of cabbage, and beets. This was about 3 weeks ago and I only see that the onions are up. I am a little worried that I may have to replant some things. Well, not that worried. I know I still have some time. So hopefully I will get the tomatoes and peppers purchased soon and get those in the ground as well as the rest of the seeds. Wish me luck. If you call and I don't answer, I will be outside and out of earshot.

Quinn is a little frustrated with the farming. His ground has been to wet to get into. I think, well never mind what I think. Hopefully they will be able to get some fields planted so I don't have to slice my ears off with a sharp knife in order to stop the madness.

Oh! our water well pressure thingy, is taking a gigantic shit. It started in with it's constipation a few days ago, then last night, Jon was taking a shower and it passed a dump. It was kinda funny, Jon yelling and Quinn having to go into the dungeon to fix it until, I was in the shower. Mid shave of the bikini area and the water stops. WTF??? So when Quinn got it fixed, I was just ready to turn the shower off and it quits again. I get out and go tell him that it's out, he lost his nachos'. I tell you what, sometimes, he just can't get a break.

In addition to all the mundania, I am pushing Mr.G for addition work. If he hires me for at least a few hours a week, I can make my ends meet and buy my lip balm for the rest of the summer. He had surgery today, getting radiation wafers implanted. As if they are cookies, puhlease. Maybe someday he will see that he will make a good choice in hiring me. One less thing he will have to worry about. maybe.

Sammy girl has an appointment in two weeks to get groomed. She will be soooo pretty I will have to take lots of pictures. Now that we put the Frontline on her she is no longer a tick taxi. I tell you, I was getting really sick of picking those fuckers off of me in the middle of the night and having to flush them. It got old real quick.

I have taught her to sing a little. I think it was a mistake because now when she is all excited (like me) she howls. Roowww aarrrwwwwrrooorrww.

Something borrowed.

OK, so my brother told me a few months ago about his engagement to his girl friend. Needless to say I wasn't exactly super excited or jumping up and down. I mean I am happy for him but she wouldn't be my pick, if you know what I mean. She can be quite nice and extremely forgiving (almost to a fault) but let's face it, she has shit for brains.
A few weeks ago, my mother and I had plans to go up to Fargo and do a little shopping. I called my mom and asked if we should invite her along to feel "welcomed". It went surprisingly well. We got along swimmingly and I helped her pick out a wedding dress. It's beautiful and black. This will be her third marriage after all.
So after reading this story I just about died laughing. If this happens at my brothers wedding, I certainly hope I am not the one that will be the giver or taker of any blows. If it does happen and the "bride" gets a bruise, at least she will have something that's blue.

the Hell...

1. I have way too much gray hair for a girl my age and I can't financially keep up with it.
2. Ford Excursions are way too gawd damned big to be on the road.
3. I almost lost it at work today when a.)A program restore deleted 3 months of work and then b.)One of my bosses gives me a "project" to do in the middle of the catastrophe and says he needs it done today.

I swear I wanted to bite his hand but you know what they say bout that.

What a month

So many thing have happened since I have last written anything. I think I may have to bullet this.

• Quinn and I went to see Eric Clapton in concert. Fantastic. The music rocked!! The seats on the other did not. We could see the stage just fine but, they were right next to the isle at the top off the stairs going out to the hall. So all the people going out and coming back with their beers was quite distracting. Then to top it off I looked and Quinn and said, OMG What the fuck is that rancid smell??? Did someone puke?? Sure as the sun rises in the east, someone let loose about 10 feet behind me in the hall. Then to make it worse, there was a drunk couple that fell in it and smeared it around themselves...EEwwwwww
• My bean has started gymnastics. She loves it and I hope to get her in more sessions this summer.
• We received Jon's report card in the mail. People, my son is a pure genius. Can you say straight A's. I can only hope that he continues to do this well and knows that I am more proud of him than anything. Now if I can just figure how to get through to him with out getting into an argument or yelling match, or get him interested in anything besides his gaming.
• I got my second tattoo last month. pictures are in flickr, look if you like.
• Easter went as expected. Now I am not a religious person, far from it. So I celebrate the Easter bunny and Peter Rabbit part of it. My husband told bean about the Jesus thing, I just ignore it. We went to his Grandmothers house. She made a turkey dinner. I love his grandma, she is a big sweetheart but she is becoming forgetful. His mom and her boyfriend were there also. Now his mom is the nicest, most giving, caring, loving woman you could ever meet. Her boyfriend on the other hand...he is so fucking stupid that you could give him a piece of paper that had please turn over written on both sides and you could keep him busy for hours. As usual, he started in with shit he doesn't know all the facts about and it turned into an argument. I feared this. I said nothing to him for the first few hours but I could no longer hold my tongue. It was quite interesting.
• Quinn ordered us a new bed. It shall be delivered next week. I am so stoked!!! One problem...it's a King and we have nothing but queen stuff. Up side to the problem...I get to go shopping.
• Work has been going swimmingly, so nothing to complain much about there. I do have a my yearly evaluation coming up. I am interested in hearing what they have to say.
• My brother informed me upon his returning home from Mexico, that he proposed to his girlfriend. I am not happy or excited about it one bit. I don't trust her farther than I can throw her and she is not the brightest bulb in the pack. oh well. It will be his first marriage, her third.

That's about it for now. Spring was here for a few days but left us again. The flicker birds, killdeers, and robins were here too but I haven't seen any in a few days.

My hands are freaking cold.

In the news...

So I found this story today. Man I tell you, I would have done the same thing. That is, if I thought about it. Sometime I just don't think about things until it's to late but since the woman couldn't afford having a child in the first place, she deserves some fundage.

It's almost here

You see all that blue....Yeah, snow. I normally don't mind snow when the temp is nice and their is no wind, but guess I am not going to be so lucky today. I guess what gets me is that I have a shit load of things to do today and the wind is not letting up. This means I have to drive around in it. Wish me luck. I will let you know how it turns out.
