Little Monster

Saturday, May 31st, 2003

I’ve created a monster. The munchkins were all playing inside today. Brittany was chasing Shalyn around the house trying to “capture” her. Each time she made the capture, AJ would try to rescue Shalyn. Of course Brittany had a weapon, a squirt bottle. Every once in a while Brittany would squirt Shalyn. When she did it a lot, I’d get after her. Of course her reply was, “But she wasn’t listening to me.” Silly kids.

I might need to create a little section for my wallpapers. I’ve gotten some emails about sending my gollum/smeagol ones out and quite a few folks come for the Serta Sheep ones. I have to say my current smeagol one is cute.

Put in a ceiling fan for the folks. It was a slight pain. My dad also decided to start playing around with the security system. I thought my head would explode from the noise. Sheesh.

I didn’t get any work done for the project I’m working on, but I plan to focus on it tomorrow. Then again… the things I plan never pan out. /sigh

dinner out

Saturday, May 31st, 2003

Tired and I believe really sick, with all the fixins. Instead of having one or two aggrevating symtoms, I’ve just been sick with it all.

We did manage to go out to dinner. It’s been forever since we’ve done that. Depending on the weather, we might go out for the day tomorrow. I don’t like sitting around, even when I’m sick. Today I was so irritated sitting around that I put a sprinkler system all around the backyard and on the side of the house (where the new citrus trees are) and installed a few landscape lights. I found a place that sells nice solar lights super cheap ($5 a light). I may pick up some in the coming days.

I have stuff to link to and stuff to write about but I’m tired and feel stuffed.

Oh, and did anyone watch meowTV tonight? We did. It was funny and :skittles: went nuts when she heard the cats on the first “squirrel alert” they had. She then proceeded to go nuts with the catnip bag. After she was wacked out she went in her bed and started kneading. Too cute.

Goodbye Concorde

Friday, May 30th, 2003

Wahhhh. I remember being a little girl with my nose pressed up against the window at the airport waiting for the Concorde to come in. No more. I miss the super delicious nachos at Heathrow too (K, do they still have them?). I guess I could try to recreate them. I think it was the cheese that was so good.

Well, it’s back to Lowes for me. Apparently I needed four sprinkler hoses and two 25ft hoses. I need to get one more of each now.

Miserable night last night. Ice cream actually helped some, but I didn’t get to bed until 4am or so.

Memory of a goldfish

Friday, May 30th, 2003

I swear I’ve had the memory span of a goldfish lately. I get doing something and then all of the sudden I forget what I was doing.

My ear is still hurting and I fear it may be an earache. It would explain the other problems I’ve been having. Took some meds and feel a little better.

I’ve still got some projects going on and need to finish them. I want to do as much as I can this weekend. Keeping my fingers crossed of course.

My life doesn’t seem as exciting as it once was. I need to work on that.

I think I need ice cream, my throat hurts some too. (yeah, right)

MeowTV

Thursday, May 29th, 2003

Is everyone ready for tomorrow’s debut of MeowTV? A tv show for cats people! I can think of one cat that will be watching. Meow. Tomorrow at 7:30 ET folks, write it in your datebook. But I should remind you, it’s for CATS, not cat lovers. Get your kitties and their catnip ready!

I soooooooo need this!!!!! I’d give the kids nightmares whenever they decided to spend the night.

my ear

Wednesday, May 28th, 2003

My ear hurts. Made big progress with the backyard! Yeah for me. :brittany: is seeing the Matrix right now. Hope she likes it.

Pee Wee

Wednesday, May 28th, 2003

Five minutes of Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure and AJ is sound asleep. Go me! Brittany is trying on clothes and deciding what looks good together. I fear the resulting mess. Shalyn went to work with Daddy today. Too cute.

My brother wants to see the Matrix, but since I’m watching the kids, I can’t go with him. He’s trying to get my niece to go though.

Things and stuff

Wednesday, May 28th, 2003

Lots of stuff I’m thinking. More yard work to be done. I need to lay out that sprinkler hose I bought yesterday. The problem is that I have volunteered to watch the youngins this afternoon. Maybe they can help.

Skittles is sleeping quite soundly a few feet from me. Her adorableness is astounding. I feel really tired, and watching her makes me want to take a nap too.

I see bedroom rearranging in my future. It needs a change.

mt-do quiz

Tuesday, May 27th, 2003

Ok, I had to do it, just because. It’s a :mt: quiz. Cute. (found via kadyellebee.com) I’m such a sucker.

Your skills as a both a teacher and practicioner of MT-Do are now at a level few people will reach. You are most likely a worthy contributor in spreading the noble practice of MT-Do to others.

Take the MT-Do test
