I survived!

So I have prince and princess and decided to take them both to Chuck E Cheese and we were there for a couple of hours and I survived!!! THere were so many people there it was crazy! Seriously I couldn't believe it you would have thought it was a Saturday weekend. Unemployment means more people get to take there children to Chuck E Cheeses! The photo thing was broke so no pics for the fridge.
It's snowing again and I am sick of it. How much more can we take?
Teen son is at the mall, just hanging out. I remember doing that, but I also thought it was boring.
This is just a quick update.

Dear Hair/hairdresser

I wanted a change so badly that I have decided that after all of this time I need bangs. I've phoned the hairdresser only to be told that I can not be seen today and well I am so impatient that I have decided that bangs are a task that I KNOW I can do on my own. The thought has crossed my mind to ask Sister2 to cut them for me but then I stopped myself by recalling the "skunk incident". (I told her highlighting stuff should not touch the root of my hair, and that I was burning!!!!!!!!!) Hairdresser is SO much in demand that my bangs have to be trimmed by me. Really how hard can it be?? I have a little girl now that I have practiced on her entire three years of life and well she looks fabulous except that one time Sister3 got ahold of her. I know that a mirror will help me keep them straight....right? SO hairdresser if I have to make a night time run to your home banging on the door for you to fix my hair while I am crying that I will never touch scissors again, then so be it.
And hair this is a pre"sorry" for any mistakes that may take place.

Princess update:
She can break dance. I'm thinking she gets her dancing skills from me or one of my sisters, however since I've never seen any of us able to do the stuff she comes up with I've decided that it still comes from my DNA strands cause very few members on her daddy's side can walk and chew gum at the same time.

Prince update:
Prince is going to spend five glorious days and four beautiful nights with his Auntie and cousins. I know we are going to have a blast!!!

Teen son update:
Teen son has some amazing renewed sense of his self and for that I am thankful. As for that Ho that he was with, well her time will come. She still hasn't realized with whom she is dealing and can not stop herself from saying things that she really shouldn't. AIDS is a curse, HO!

Sister3 is traveling to the beautiful warm sin city!!! I'm going to give her four quarters and have to deposit those quarters in a slot machine at exactly 3:15 p.m. EST and pull that handle!!! I just know that this is going to be the winning time and that she can keep have half of the winnings. I am so excited for her this is her first time and maybe she just might come back married!!!! Sister1 & I have both given up on the dream of there ever being a real wedding in the family!

Hubby has figured out how to make free energy!!! This of course after he has determined that there is no such thing as time and that there really is a tie to the big bang theory and GOD cause he has figured it out.....and anything else that the Discovery channel has shown us in the last month or so.

Still no home for me. Just sitting here wasting time, drinking and smoking trying to free my mind.

We did it!!!

Now we have seen history in the making, good history! The history you'll want to tell your grandkids about (Teen son please don't go there yet) I've watched all day long and have onnly cried twice, once when the kids at the NYSE rang the bells and then when Obama gave his speech. This country deserves a chance to be all we say we can be. Now there just may be some hope.
I know that some people are upset about how Bush was treated when he left, but seriously the man is a war criminal, I have no sympathy. He made his bed, now let him lay in it. IF I could have been there!! I would have stood for hours too. I would have bought a sweat shirt and a flag. I am proud to know that we are begining a new era. WE can see the forest without the bush in the way.
Priincess was really excited today too. Last night we made a tee shirt that she wore to school today that said: I <3 Obama. She thought it was the greatest and even said to me, he's finally President Mom?!? Yes he is! Now she has to step up and be the first woman with mixed descent to be President.

Update, cause I have to

Let's see this year has not been great so far. Dad isn't takin care of himself and Sister1 & I had to go out there to argue with him just to take his sugar. It was like arguing with a teenager. He played all kinds of cards and Sister1 called him out!! Bravo! So tomorrow I get to go to the doctors with him....all this while two Uncles had to be taken in to the emergency room. One is still there the other is home getting ready for a homewarming/candle party. Yes I think he is a kindred spirit of my curly headed friend and now that he lives like five minutes from us it may mean more parties. WooHoo. Free booze.
Princess is back in school and fuuny as ever, only thing is that I have my teen son who I'll now refer to as Rocky to deal with. Seems he and his friend had a fist fight and all hell broke out. Now things have settled down and at least Rocky has no body damage. Teen drama was never this bad when I was a teen.
Still praying we get the new home. I've got some paint samples that I've been looking at planning to paint the house. I'll get a team of people and feed them some pizza. hint hint

2009 Finally

Well the mean ass neighbor's house was on fire. Princess and I were in the shower and we heard all the sirens so she of course wanted out and I had to know what was happening. Butt naked she ran to the window to look at the firemen. Please don't do this when you're eighteen!! I got her dressed and she watched them out there the entire time. Now Hubby is taking her outside to tell them thanks. She wants to give them a hug.
SO this New Year is here. Hip HIp Hooray! After 2008 I'm thinking it really can not be anything but better.
I had me some tekillaya rose and watched the ball drop. Princess and hubby had already passed out. They like to sleep a lot. I watched CNN and that Kathy cracks me up!!
Yesterday I watched a movie called The Women. Not one damn man in the entire movie! It was really good and I have to watch it one more time before I take it back.
Sister2 can't wait for us to move back into her hood, not cause she misses me but because she needs a shopping partner. We shop alike, we like to look around for bargains, clearance and all the sales. While on the other hand Sister1 & Sister3 are "get in and get out" as soon as possible shoppers. They seriously go shopping for a pair of pants and get home wiht JUST a pair of pants! I think my Mom made us that way. So that we each had someone to shop with and someone to make us only get what we need.
My teen son is having all sorts of drama. Seems I was right!! *shining my nails!*
Once a ho always a ho. I tried to tell him from this point on he should make it a point to only date outside of his school. We will see if he takes my advice.

Thank GOD the tree is down!

Christmas without my Mom just wasn't Christmas.
However Sister2 did a damn fine job!! She made breakfast and dinner. Both were really good. Got lots of stuff, but the best thing is that we may be getting a home. Sister3 has gone beyond the norm and is trying to help us get a home, areal home. One that the kids can enjoy and one that I will cherish. How do you thank someone for something like that?? The fainting I see on Extreme Home Makeovers is probably a start and if this really happens I just might faint. Having a home that is the bestest thing in the world and you don't realize it until you don't have one.
Now for happy things. Princess woke up on Christmas and has decided that Santa is a really nice guy! She is so excited and to her he did well!
Prince has a bruised penis. I mean what little one hasn't smashed it with the toilet seat? Right?? I mean it looks really bruised but it is still working and I believe this a lesson he will never forget: "Place the penis back in the underoos THEN put the seat down!"
Yes in the ghetto they need tailgates from Ford pickups. Lesson learned this morning. My Dad's tailgate was stolen!! Imagine those peeps running down the street with a tailgate! Not like the city of Detroit is going to be on the look out for it , I do know that we will be. Grey tailgate on a red Ford and that person is busted!! So I think we all need our CCW's. Just in case we run into some bad guys and need protection.
Took the tree down on Saturday because it just need not be up any longer. Santa came and it just wasn't the same.
Sister3 is a speed demon, we left the same place about the same time and yet she managed to get to my house before me!! I pay attention to speed signs. WE had took the little ones to watch a Pooh Bear play at the DIA. Prince laughed out loud twice and that was so damn funny. Princess is upset that Tigger wasn't there. Of Course he should have been, that Rabbit was there and he isn't even funny. I guess he had to have a part so that Pooh could get stuck in his rabbit hole, but still kids love Tigger. Then I thought the actors were all a bit on the older side and may not have wanted to jump around on the stage.
Let's talk about that restroom in the DIA. The men's room was nice and clean I looked while the door was opened. The ladies room had a line out the door. Seriously, the women couldn't pee fast enough to keep the line from coming out the door. Then there was the restroom attendant who couldn't get the toilet paper out fast enough. Not only did she have to get it out but then she had to fight back through the line to get it to the stall!! I think that they should consider making another ladies room. The attendant also needs a raise.

Yes Princess, there is a Santa Claus

Seems our Princess some how got a letter from the old St. Nick himself. She loves it! It was really cool so I called my sisters to see who sent it. First was Sister3 and it wasn't her. Then Sister1 and nada, then and of course I knew better Sister2 and well it wasn't any of them. Even asked curly headed friend, cause that is something she would so do, and it wasn't her either. So there must be a Santa!! I hope he gets here on time!!!
I've been on strike lately and haven't really made any dinners. Which makes me a bad wife, however I figure that bad hubby's get stuck with bad wifey's right?
My other curly headed friend, the one who got pregnant and we still aren't sure how that happened is going to do it solo!! I know major props to her. She will make it work out I know it, now if that baby gets my hair that would be awesome! Amazing too.
So Sister3 and I went to the movies to watch Seven Pounds....don't waste your money wait for the video. I was so exxcited to go see it and well it wasn't that great. That is what I get for hoping for a life changing movie. SO yesterday I rented on-demand "where GOD left his shoes" now that was a great movie!! I needed some drama.
I also made it to the store yesterday to get some gifts and well it is hard to buy for those you love. Really what do you get a sister that has everything or one who likes nothing?? IF Sister2 does that rolling of the eyes thing and that "well that is nice" in a mono tone or anything other that pure EXCITEMENT I'm not getting her anything else except gift cards again. Depending on the mood I'll be in I might just have to smack her after I eat my biscuits and gravy.
Best diet ever is stress!! I've been stressed out and eating a lot less. Like I could not even eat a 99 cents bag of chips!! Princess ate more than me!! I've not eaten all those wonderful homemade cookies....I want to but I'm not in the mood to chew. Highfive for holiday stress!!!
Now what do I get my teenson for Xmas??? After he has gotten his first ticket??? After he has made me madder in the last few months than in his whole growing up career??? I'm thinking cash.
I have to go to Mom in Laws to grab cheese for my sister, cause without it we will have no cheesey potatoes for Xmas, I hate cheese but everyone else loves them so I will have mom in law meet me outside...in her wheel chair.
