Did I Say I Love October?

So it's cold. I forgot how cold it gets. It never used to bother me but something happened and I can't take it anymore.

Right now my fingers, toes, and nose are all thawing out from having sat outside in the crazy cold and wind to watch a football game.

I take it back....what I said about October. It kind of blows sometimes.

Why do I live here again?

*Before you leave any clever comments about how this is just the beginning and it's only going to get worse and I probably won't be warm again until April....Don't! I'm well aware.

Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!!

So my baby is 10. She gets smarter, funnier, sweeter, and more beautiful every year. Don't believe me....see for yourself.

Double Digits

So it's October. I really love October. The weather, the smells, the leaves turning. It makes me very, very happy. It's also the month that my beautiful girl was born. This is the year she enters the much awaited double digits.

My baby is a baby no more. She's a bright, funny, sweet, beautiful little lady.

HA HA HA HA HA

So I am posting a photo that is guaranteed to make you smile. If you're having a bad day....BOOM!, you're now laughing. Mad at the world....just take a look here. Feeling sad....this is bound to cheer you up.



You're Welcome!

Gettin' all crafty up in here

So I'm gonna try something new. I'm gonna make slip covers for some furniture.

Never tried anything like it, have no idea how to do it, but I'm a smart girl and I'm sure I can figure it out.

Ikea has fun fabric for fairly cheap so I'll probably look there first. I want to stay as cheap as possible in case I screw it all up and have to start over or just give up and buy them instead.

I will take before, during, and after pictures.

I may or may not post them.

The Indestructible Goldfish A.K.A. Lisa and Swimmy

So toilet water did nothing to these freaks of nature. In fact they might have gotten bigger last night.





P.S. You can see through the water. Because of me.

Yes....I am a horrible person

So we've had two goldfish forever. I mean seriously, aren't they supposed to live like three months or something?

I have been tempted to just "dispose" of them and be done with the mess that is their tank. It's just a small tank but it gets disgusting. And I mean really disgusting. Apparently I am the only one in this house with the knowledge to clean it. Because it's really really hard. Except that it's not hard at all. Just a huge pain in the ass.

Those damn fish don't like being taken out of their disgusting green water and put in nice clean sparkling water. They let me know how they feel by flopping like fools and getting said disgusting green water in my EYES, on my clothes, and all over the place.

Then there are the rocks. I hate the rocks. The rocks are there simply to make me crazy. The rocks get slimy, full of food and poop, and generally hazardous. It can't be healthy to get any of that business splashed up in your face.

Okay, so I got a little irritated today when I saw their tank. The water wasn't even see through. That's probably not sanitary at all, right?

So in my irritation I decided I'm done. I'm done with dealing with these things. I mean they don't even DO anything. So being the horrible person that I am, I flushed them. Yep, told you I was horrible. Except the little shits swam against it and when the dust settled there they were swimming around happily in the freaking toilet bowl. These damn things are indestructible. Of course I felt horrible for trying to flush them so I scooped them out and super, crazy cleaned their tank.

So there you go. I am a horrible person with incredible, indestructible goldfish.
