Girl Scout Cookies: Thin Mints, Samoas ot Tagalongs

I've got what you need. 
It's an addiction.  I've got what you need.  Hit me up.

It may seem sad but it is true....It is no holds barred...we need to sell these cookies. 
I have cases...C.A.S.E.S....in my dining room  I've got them in my truck...at my office...at CHF's office...my sister has some in her car and my other sister is picking up a case to distribute amongst her co-workers.  If I've got to ....we will open shop on the corner...near the park....where all the Marines in training take their morning jog.  <We are hitting up the neighbors this weekend.
Setting up shop at the 7-eleven we have pom-poms and are not afraid to use them.  

The Samoas will not last long....they are like crack....

***Notice the boxes now have the cookie featured with the Girl Scout Sash ....fancy******
I'm tryin' to forget that
I'm addicted to you
But I want it
And I need it
I'm addicted to you

The Pope is stepping down

All kinds of questions arise....can we pick a new pope with a longer than a 10 year expiration date???   Is this new Pope going to continue tweeting???  Can the new Pope actually take old Popes Twitter account???  Is that one of those boxes that was checked in the Terms and Agreements???   Will old Pope get ticked one day and sign in as himself and start a twitter war with new Pope???  

Can the cardinals Tweet us the new Pope's info???  I mean instead of smoke.  

Beyonce Lip-Synced !! & McDonalds McFlurry

OH-MY-GOD!!
Of course she did people....there were MILLIONS OF PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD WATCHING HER!  She isn't Roseanne....she is a professional and professionals know that shit can happen and that shit could make you sound awful!!  So you Lip-Synced your ass off!!  When you look and sound like Beyonce you're going to have haters...people hate...so she has some haters.  I think it was beautiful baby girl!!!


Beyonce  

It is so freaking cold in the D...we are wearing layers on our layers.
I dressed Princess in several layers and bundled her tight...think Christmas Story....then she was all like "Mom, I feel really ...uhhmmm ...hummmm... THICK."  I told her she is thick. I am guilty of allowing Princess to have way to many goodies. I want her to eat healthily but that puts me in between a rock and a hard spot because it would mean no goodies in the house for me either.  Being a mom is so difficult.

Brings me to the aged old question of how do you deal with bigots??? 
I took Princess for a McFlurry...she needed one and/or I needed a hot fudge sundae...and some teens made some bigot remarks.  They are lucky I had Princess with me cause I wanted to reach over and shake the little fuckers! 
Just because the laws state things are equal doesn't make them so.  It is 2013 and we still cannot make that happen.  Let us pray those teens have poison ivy on their backs and their arms are to short to scratch :) 

Happy New Year 2013 Calendar up

So Christmas was stressful.  The Elf is put the fuck up...I told princess a story about the Elf hitching a ride back to the North Pole with Santa...caused many tears and she wrote a good bye note for Elfie and even sent her with a care package for the long trip home. 
Gift exchanged caused Hubby to freak.

I did get a pandora bracelet but do to a series of events leading up to Christmas my bracelet has lost its meaning.

I did recieve a Mothers ring I heart it very much and it fits *happy dancing**

So happy the little ones are back in school it just makes things easier! 

Happy 2013 Merry everything.

H.R. 35 No this is too much

There is a line and some asshats in Washington have crossed it.  I DO NOT WANT GUNS IN MY SCHOOLS PERIOD. 

H.R. 35 which is called the Safe Schools Act of 2013 is called so to deceive the public.  Twisting words so that some will think this is an actual SAFE SCHOOLS ACT.  It makes my stomach turn.  I do not want schools to have guns in them.  I do not believe we as a people are able to accurately detect whether or not someone is mentally stable enough to have in their pocket a weapon that takes human life.  We are not training gun owners but feeding fuel to their fire of rage.

FEAR is a great controller.  I am tired of being controlled.  I am done with fear. 

I DO NOT want GUNS in SCHOOLS. 

One of their seven reasons to promote this bill is:
(7) that the reason that the ‘Gun Free School Zones Act’ has made American schools unsafe is that shooters now know that they can victimize American school campuses with no fear that victims will be armed.

How about SHOOTERS THAT PLAN TO VICTIMIZE SCHOOL CHILDREN NOT HAVE GUNS!!! NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO PURCHASE MILITARY TYPE WEAPONS.


I just know that had the insane Newton man had a handgun....we would not be mourning the massacre of  twenty small children. 

I ask those people around me, who think having AK' s is just fine and give the flashcard standard statements,  if your child's school was going to be the next school shooting, but you had to choose the madman's weapon would it be an Bushmaster XM or handgun??  Usually the response is some rambling about rights, freedom, Merica.  I just respond that "Well you have to choose."

How to Get a New Dishwasher and Princess asked "Is Santa Real"

So Happy Weekend everyone and in the infamous words of CHF, per FB, " There arent enough days in the weekend" 
This weekend flew by...Some Christmas shopping..done<<ly
wants a new puter but doesn't want me to pick it out cause I'll get the wrong one.   WTF....Gift card for Hubby! CHECK
 Gift cards are brilliant by the way...I pick the store they pick what they want....so my Son also got a gift card!   I do plan to go get him a punching bag and I bought him some jeans.

I have my brother in law to buy for and the man my other sister is living in sin with.  At Turkey day we drew names for a gift exchange...sorta...there was wine involved...we drew names then some people didnt want their names in the drawing then they did then, we drew names then no one wanted to do it...We went home...BUT the name drawing was not for not, after I left baby sister called me and said the name draw gift exchange was ON!   like Donkey Kong.   I have to tell Hubby it is on  *sigh*

Hubby may not want to spend more money right now because

1.) I got a new dishwasher! On Saturday my dishwasher puked all over the kitchen..not without warning...it was trying to tell me for a week it did not feel well...plus Hubby kept calling her bad names...so she died.  The funeral was quick:  Hubby could not get it out of the house fast enough.  There were many versions of the F-Bomb being dropped  <<< that was my cue...so I texted a friend to get some strawberries and meet me at my Baby sisters house STAT...I've got wine!! Some hours later, Hubby bought the biggest and best dishwasher and installed it...by eleven p.m. I had a load of dishes in!!

2.)Mom-in-Law got a new TV.  Hubby bought his dad a new tv last year and he felt he had to get his mom one...so he did.

3.) HE STILL HAS TO GET MY GIFT!!! Trust me he tried to say the new dishwasher was my gift...then I flipped out.  He now understands that if I have no gift under the tree to open come Christmas morning....life will be really bad....Happy Wife....Happy Life.  Read this Hubby

This brings me to the question no parent wants to hear. Not really.

While Hubby is cursing up a storm in the kitchen Princess sits next to me on the couch.                             She says:
"Mom, this is real talk. I don't want you to lie to me I just want to know the truth and this is serious, Is Santa Real?" 

jawdropped....I yelled for Hubby.

I turned to Hubby and said to Princess "Go ask your daddy that question"
People there isn't enough wine in the world.   Princess is our last child and we need to extend this farce for as long as we can!  We need the Christmas magic!!   AND I just bought the damn   ELF ON THE SHELF to help me keep some magic in the house!!  Once Santa isn't real then innocence is gone...there goes the tooth fairy, the easter bunny, cupid, leprechaun. No more Magic, No more Elfs, No more traps (see the awesomeness of this trap! )

Hubby handled it nicely I think:
He said to Princess :" Of course there is a Santa!!  Do you think I wrap all those gifts and put them  under the tree??  I don't have time to do all that!  Of course there is a Santa!  Who is telling you there isn't??  There is a Santa!"
Princess jumped up into Hubby's arms and said:  "I love you Daddy!"
Maybe she will know the truth next year....JUST A MAYBE.

                            

12 Things I want for Christmas

This year I truly have no idea what I want for Christmas.  Of course there are things that I want for the house...like carpet...painting and a new table and chairs and a pan rack and a wine glass rack and a new fluffy couch...that I can sleep on...rooms built in the basement....can not wait to have a storage room in the basement.  But for me..I've no idea *shrug shoulders*
So I've been thinking.  I don't need anything.  I'm not much into "things", don't really wear make up (cause pretty girls don't need make-up), I have too many clothes and too many shoes. *sigh* It is hard to think of things you want when you have always ask for just the things you need.  I decided to get more princess about it and think what do I want.

So here goes:

1.  A Pandora Bracelet:

First of all it is way cute!  It's a grown up charm bracelet.  The beads are expensive enough....but they all hold "meaning".  I,  for one,  am all for having more meaning in life.

I could learn to about all the charms and change them all the time to make it match everything!!

2. True Religion Jeans:

Why not??  In high school I never got to have Jordash jeans, so really I've been saving up for years....

My jeans are always on sale.  I don't think I have EVER paid full price on jeans for me, so I think I would like a pair of $300 jeans. 

3. Diamonds:

Diamonds are a girls best friend. Maybe earrings or a necklace.

4. A New Car:

My vehicle is crying to be replaced.   It is pushing forward and getting me to work each day, but she is tired.  A new car would be awesome!!  Smooth driving, something that is fuel efficient, any color would do except tan.

5.Perfume:

I have no idea what kind, something expensive that I would never buy myself.  Suggestions?

6. A Watch:

I'd like a black leather band with a small round face watch, one that I could wind up and the was classic.  Not a Mickey Mouse watch but something like that.

7. A Trip To Disney World.

I loved going so much!!  They have opened a new park within the magic kingdom and I know I would just love it!!  So would Princess!!!   I miss this!!!

We all loved it.  We need this.  We miss this.

8. An Amazon Gift Card:

With lots of zeros!!! I really really really want to put some books on my Kindle.  There are a lot that I need to read.  Plus if there is anything I see on Amazon that I want at the moment I could just use my gift card and buy it, right then and there.

9. Spa Gift Certificate:

I need a massage...who doesn't?  Plus it is some alone time....wait a minute

10. Some ALONE Time!!!

enough said about that one.  pffffft

11. A New Phone:

My cell phone is ancient...I've had it for years. (that's plural cause it has been many years) I want to talk to my phone and make it call me Queen or something cool like that. I also hear that I can tell the phone to text something and for anyone who knows me, CHF, I can't really text well.  So if I could talk to the phone and have it text for me so that I really dont have to talk to the person I text HOW FREAKIN AWESOME WOULD THAT BE!?!?!

12. World Peace:

The rest of this list is but a dream....so why not some world peace.  :)
