Sorry... Sorry... Sorry!

It's been brought to my attention that I am falling down on the job again!! This place has been such a mad house I haven't even had a chance to sit down in front of the computer! (except to win some great clinique lipstick on ebay for $1.29) But we won't talk about that! Dylan has been sick for almost a week now, stomach flu, YUCK!!! I think I jinxed myself by leaving a comment on Lou's blog about him being pretty healthy the last year. So of course it is moving through the whole family. Jim missed work on Monday, puking. God help me. There is nothing worse than a sick Jim! Celeste was out of school Thursday and Dylan has just been sick all along! I think though we have officially kicked it. I hope. Now were just down to booger nose and a cough....... Ahhhh... The joy's of motherhood!

So, The kid's did not end up going trick-or-treating at the park this year. It was too cold and rainy. Personally I think Lida and Joe were too afraid to take them! Dylan can move quick when people are giving away free "suckahs". Hahahaha!! However, they did take him to Lucky's, which can be equally as scary. So I don't know.

We have officially nixed the cute shaggy dog costume. It has nothing to do with the fact that he fought so hard last time we tried to put it on him that he broke the zipper. It has everything to do with the fact that we walked into Halloween USA and he walked right up to a Mike Wiznowski (? the cute green guy from Monsters Inc.) and said "I annah wear dis". And now we cant get it off of him.

So now I have posted. Gotta go clean house and get ready for Tuesday. The fam is coming over for some Trick-or-Treating fun. It's always a good time! Geez, I wonder if I can KEEP my house clean till Tuesday!!

Oh, and Lou, I didn't know there were enough people in the UP to make you wait an hour for anything!! Hahahaha! Sounds like it was fun!

When I posted this I wanted to put some pic's up but was having issues. So here they are. Enjoy!

Isn't Jim Hot?

D's new costume complete with T-or-T bag

"Dat's gwos Sissy!"

2 post's in 1 day........

It's October 12th people. And look at my back yard..... Ugh.... Grrr....
It better melt!

Crue + Aerosmith = Hangover =-(

Oh my God!! Will someone please remind me that I am not a Rockstar, and I am way to old to try and party like one. On a Wednesday even!!! Yes folk's, if you will notice the time stamp on this post I am sooooo not at work. The concert was nothing short of awesome, even if Vince Neil only sang every 5th word or so. Aerosmith.... they leave me speechless! Steven Tyler rocks!!
It was at DTE (formerly Pine Knob) and the weather SUCKED. But it was totally worth it.
So as Dylan enjoys his Bob the Builder I am going to sit here in my Jammies & un-brushed hair and nurse my cup of coffee and bottle of Motrin!

Halloween Hell!!

I thought I had 3 weeks but now I only have 4 days to convince Dylan to put his Halloween costume on!!! Lida and Joe are going to take D to the park Saturday night for trick-or-treating and he refuses to put his costume on!! This is not good people!! (and where did this kid come from? Does he not realize that Mommy is the Halloween Goddess?) My Dad and Laurie got him this very cute Shaggy dog looking costume and he refuses to put it on, screams like I'm poking his eyes out or something!! I even tried explaining to him when he puts it on he gets candy and no luck! Ohwell, we'll see what happens..... Should be interesting!

Does anyone have any costume suggestions? Jim and I are going to a party on Saturday and I have no clue!(halloween goddess, yeah right) Jim is even going to dress up so I have to!! In 10 years of me asking him to dress up he finally is and I have no good costume ideas! Oh yeah, the party is Saturday so time is of the essence.

Can you tell I am at a loss of things to blog about? We haven't done anything lately.... No life..... Lame!!!

Cute pic from last year!













P.S. Thank's for the picture tip Mary. I was doing it in the compose area instead on edit html.

Sunday Evening & Desperate Housewives

Don't have a whole lot to talk about tonight. It was a pretty laid back weekend! We had Dylan's best buddy's 2nd B-day party yesterday, it was fun but exhausting I chased D all day by myself cuz Jim had to work all day!!! I don't know what the deal is lately. I have no energy, I could fall asleep on my feet! And before you even think it don't!!!! I am not preg.... I can't even type it!!!

Anyway, do you guy's watch Desperate Housewives??? I am watching it as I post and is it just me or is it getting worse and worse?? It's getting so stupid. But for lack of anything better to watch on Sunday night I guess I will keep on. How about Brother's and Sisters? The jury is still out that one too. Calista Flockhart (sp?) just kind of bothers me!

My blog is appropriately titled tonight...... Rambling..... Gotta go, Gabby's gonna get it on with the hot 12 year old Gardner!!

What do ya think???

Welcome to my new template!! What do you think? I hope I did it all right!!! I will
post more tomorrow.... I am very tired!! This took forever!! Hope you like it!

Finally..........................

So SBC finally decided to pull their heads out of their asses and we finally have internet service for more than 5 seconds. Congrats SBC!!! Hip Hip Hurray!!! You better not charge me for the last two months of NO service!! That being said, what's going on in blogger world? I have been able to keep up with some of your websites and blogs at work but they have this stupid filter that blocks me from some of them. Jackie, Jeff, Joe and Lida...... Did you know that Comcast is considered spy ware?? Yeah... Whatever the hell that is.

So my Fab Hubby ditched me again this weekend. Guess where he went? Oh yeah, only to do the one thing he's been promising me for the last five years or so. Salmon fishing~!!! I was so jealous, I mean look at those whoppers!! They caught 10 in all. Ohwell, maybe next year!

Look at all the fun stuff we did while he was gone though!! We went to Spicers Orchard yesterday with my Dad, Laurie, Pat and Rebecca. We all had a great time! We were sick to our stomach from too much apples, apple cider and doughnuts then to top it off we went back to Dad and Laurie's for Chili..... Grrrrr...... Ick! (keep scrolling down!)





Are my kid's not the cutest???!!!!

Oh and I wanted to say.... Jack - I heard you are going to have the baby on Thursday. That is AWESOME!!!!! Good luck to you and whatever you have to go through, just remember it's all worth it in the end! It is the most amazing feeling when they put that little man in your arms for the first time! It makes a miserable pregnancy worth every second!!! Love you guy's!

And on one last note..... I still do not get along well with blogger! If anyone can give me some tips on how to place my pictures and such that would be great!!! I get soooooooooooo frustrated!! It has taken me almost two hours to do this one. So it's like a trade off... You give me tip's..... I post more often! Deal? O.K. Glad we worked that out!
