Free rice anyone??

well not for you silly. Something I had stumbled upon about a year or so ago, you build your vocab and for every word you get right you donate 20 grains of rice to feed the impoverished. also if you miss words you don't lose grains you just lose your level. So check it out. improve your vocab impress peeps at work and well do some good while you are chillin' at the computer wasting time. :D http://www.freerice.com/
to date ( well actually just since yesterday when i changed my settings lol) i have donated 4420 grains of rice.
don't forget to go up to options and change your settings so it can keep track of how much rice you have donated and what vocab level you are on.

Some days are harder then the day before

I miss Matthew. A Lot. Some days I am ok, but somedays I just need to dwell and feel sad. Today is that day. I just miss him. I torture myself going to his myspace page, knowing he will never log back in, sending IM's to his long gone yahoo name. Sending comments knowing damn well he will never get them. But I can't help myself I have to do it. He shouldn't be gone, he should still be here sending random texts and making obscene phone calls to me. I am soo angry at him for leaving the way he did. it wasn't his time he shouldn't have gone that way. I am angry at myself for not calling when I should have..... i'm sad and angry...

I Love Used book stores!!!

So there is this really awesome book store near where i live. I just turned in a bunch of books. I have 94 bucks in paperback credit. w00t!!!! that is awesome!! only 3 bucks in hardback but that is ok because I like paperbacks more anyway..... Looks like i am set for a while with 'new' books. Anyway. not too much else happening here other then its hot yet again. yuck... The ac is ok but the attic fan seems to be out D uses the attic for a sauna that is how hot it gets up there. He went to go check it out and before he even got up into the attic he was sweating. just wearing shorts. Yuck.. i sent the Property manager a repair request. I hope the AC guy comes soon. Anyway that is just a small update on me..

so it has been a while

I have updated in forever. so here i am..
Not too much going on just finishing projects, cleaning up and spending summer with the kiddos.
I have pictures. :) enjoy.

The Rose Garden 'Ghan from the summer crochet today! magazine.

My first round ripple. for a baby.

Finito!!

baby granny.

More AC woes

it's down again. *sigh* I need to email the landlord. hopefully it will be fixed soon.

In progress...

Two projects that are currently WIP's
This is the Rose Garden 'Ghan from Crochet Today!

This is the Through Any Window Baby Blanket which can be found here ( pattern)
Did this one in baby bee yarn, mint, chocolate, and cream. I think it looks like a yummy ice cream or cookie. :)

Panoramic Picture Via my camera

my camera has super powers. ha ha no it has this awesome panoramic feature that allows me to take 2-3 pictures and splice them together to create a panoramic picture sans photoshop.. enjoy ( oh this is my house BTW)

How does this work??

Ok last night go to bed at 1 am, wake up at 9 ( thanks lawn guys) start to feel Exhausted around 12 perk back up around 3pm now here it is 1.41am and i am wide awake. Ugghh wth man. So what do i do? work on my WIPs of course ha ha ha.... That and watch mindless tv. D is passed out in the room snoring up a storm so that leaves about zero chance for me to get to sleep in the bed. And to top it off the sinus pressure ( cold vs allergies still in testing phase lol) is killing me. I have had terrible afternoons where my head is just killing me. And right now i can't smell things unless I am up close and personal. D comes in the house and says what is that smell and i think great what happened. So i tell him i can't smell so I have no idea what you are talking about. at least it wasn't freaking gas or something. *sigh*.

Anyway... Side note I updated my ravelry page with my new WIP's and other finished projects. yay!!! i know uber geeky of me. I really need to update my myspace, but i am too lazy to do that... besides i am sure i will encounter some kind of issue doing so. I can't get away from the dang errors over there. alright i guess i wasted enough time already. I'll post some pics later today.

Ants, puppies and kids

3 things that have irritated me this week. grrrr.. first i guess some rouge fire ants made it into our house and one felt it would be best to bite me. so it did 2x on my foot. right where my flip flop sits so uber itchy and uber uncomfy... My doxie whom i love, decided to destroy a skein of yarn i was using in a project. so I need to buy a new skein ( it wasn't cheap yarn either grrrr) . The kids. lets just say summer vacation needs to be over. Fighting over tv time, computer time. ARRRGGGHHH that is it everyone is banished outside!!!

Invisible

Do you ever just feel invisible? In life, on the internet? in general. Lately I feel that way. Most is my own doing. I don't 'put myself out there'. I like my little bubble of nothing. I am just tired.. Living here seems to drain me. I feel alone for the first time ever. Something that I couldn't fathom. I don't seem to fit in here at all. I'm just a different kind of person i guess.

True to life?

So this subject kinda came up on a forum i frequent. I kinda got peeved and well here on my blog I can elaborate lol. So people often say that Army wives is not 'realistic'. My response to this is DUHHHH it's a tv show. If it was supposed to be realistic it would be a reality show. And lets be honest how often is a reality show that realistic? Its not it's cut for drama and all that jazz. I guess I can't understand how people expect this one show to be so realistic? Is ER a realistic view of County hospital docs? probably not. Or Grey's? Well first Seattle Grace is a fictional hospital so again gonna go with no.. I can understand that some people feel it is cheesy or poorly written/acted. and that is fine but to sit and say that the show is not realistic enough. what is that. How do we know anyone's reality? Unless you are living it nothing is realistic. So that is my rant for the moment. Hold on more coming in a different post. ha ha ha

Army Wives

it's back on and I am sooo happy. I know that it is sometimes cheesy and not true to life, but I really love it for the entertainment value. oh yes. Anyway my sundays will once again have meaning.. yay!!! This sunday's episode was amazing and wrong all in the same moment. lol I was so upset over Amanda biting the dust. I just felt it was wrong on so many levels. Oh well can't win them all. sigh****

Finished set

So i finally got off my lazy butt and finished the dress to make the baby set. I had been putting it off mainly because i didn't want to attach the new yarn. pathetic I know. lol at any rate. here it is in all it's pink glory.. enjoy!!

Sprinkler woes

Apparently a degree in lawn maintenance is required to work my 5 dollar wal-mart sprinkler. I must have spent 10 minutes outside ( in the blazing heat btw) trying to twist that 8 sprinkler sprinkler thingy so I could get to the one i wanted. GAAAHHH!!!!!! O.M.G it was a nightmare. to say the least. all so I can maybe water our lawn. I know i know people will ask but Michelle its midday, yes I know, but i can't water at night due to lawn fungus, it gets so hot and humid that no matter when I water temp will be about 80 anyway. So I was watering today and thought I'll just keep watering till my front lawn gets water. My poor lawn needs it.
At any rate. Being outside has exhausted me. so off to my room i go. I think i need a nap.

new project/ending project

I am almost done with the baby blanket i posted about a few posts down ( the purple one) for our pregnant baby sitter. I have also started on a matinee jacket I have been wanting to start. I finally got a 2.00 mm hook ( i had started it using a c hook it was no good) but now I am good to go with the right hook. I also got a Crochet Today! at Hobby Lobby the other day, and there is a shawl I want to make, but it's made from thread and intimdating. ohnoz. but I think i will work through it because it is just too pretty not to make.

I'm tired since it is almost 1 am. and D is out at a party, i never sleep well when he isn't here. Anyway i'll post more later. Night all.

I can't believe he called me a pyscho

Classic line from Tommy Boy, my son after soccer practice. all that is missing is the raging deer. lol

Interesting morning

I found a frog out front in our ice chest. I whipped out my camera and started snapping. he was patient at first, but then it wore thin and he hopped away after i let him out. enjoy the mosaic. :D

Major/Minor annoyances

My favorite forum is down. An annoyance right now because I wanted to go lurk and post.
Youtube is being a butt about uploading my video. grrrr i really wanted to upload it hello youtube get your act together. My kids lost the toilet paper holder for their bathroom. gahhhh This weekend Ds will be team captain which means I get to make snacks. yay ( note the sarcasm). This also means I get to go back to Sam's ( for the 3rd time this week) for snacks.
This day has just been crazy, all around.. hopefully it ends soon.

For some reason

I love this video. I stumbled across it one day on youtube. It's just adorable. The family is so sweet in this video it just makes my heart soar everytime I see it. ( incase you couldn't tell this is not my video nor my family, i just really think it's cute plus I love jack johnson. lol)

Boris Vs. the frog

Apparently he had no idea what these things were. it perplexed him soo. lol

Outside fun

I decided with the summer almost full upon us, that the time had come to spend some time outside.
I bought a cheap pool at wal-mart ( and I do mean cheap 5.66 can't beat that) an umbrella and a patio table ( complete with umbrella and 2 chairs) for little bits. I had a slip and slide from last summer ( target clearance, yes I know i rock. lol) So we spent almost all afternoon outside. It was fun, Boris found a frog which he chased with gusto lol. Little bits spent tons of time in her little pool and I got bit by freaking ants. grrrr.

Today was crazy.

It's Thursday, my ONE NIGHT. i only ask that between 8-9 that no one bugs me. Today wasn't my day. Nothing but issues. so and so is bugging me. He hit me, where is this, not going to bed. GAAAHHHHH!!!!! O.M.G I am just upset because I missed the first few minutes of my show. grrrrr... all because someone wants a disney account. *** rolls eyes*** then all thru the show nothing but drama. GRRRRRR.... then right at the end D calls. HELLOOOO!!!! how long have you lived in this house?? Seriously!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Ok now that I got that out, little bits got glasses. I feel bad because it was my bad genes that gave her the bad eyesight, but she is happy because the first words were now i can see. yay. i remember that feeling. lol. Alright enough of an update for now. Enjoy the pics. :D

More insomnia

Grrr, it's 1.40 am, i am still up. Mainly because the hubster is snoring, LOUDLY, i can't sleep if he is snoring. and it never fails he can be silent up until I am ready to fall asleep and then start snoring sooo loud. irritates me.
However i have found i get a lot done when the insomnia kicks in... I finally loaded some music into my Sidekick. yay for that. I am almost done with the pink baby blanket, just working on the boarder now. was able to finish watching Carrier. Answered some emails. Ohh cleaned out my email in box. all very important things, that apparently can only be done when I should be sleep. ***sigh*** tomorrow I will pay for this, and Saturday I get no relief because it is soccer saturday. grrrr what fun. NOT. well it is, just not at 9 am, then again at 2 pm. and then we have IKEA to go to, to buy our table since all we currently have for a 'dining room table' i use that term loosely, is a molded plastic craft table and folding chairs whoo hoo living it up. rofl.

I forgot to mention SOS is down. which makes me upset because that is like the best place for insomnia mode. you can read tons of old ass threads and catch up on all the things you chose to forget about. lol... alright off to post this, hopefully i will get some rest soon. we will see.

Missing it

Carrier is on PBS now. It is making me miss fleet life horribly. I know i know how can i get fleet life from a show about a ship. But it just makes me realize that currently that is not our life. ***sigh*** I don't know I really just want to go back to being around 'normal people' ha ha. I feel so out of sorts here. We are not around our normal circle of friends, our normal way of life. I really want that back. oh well right..
anyway here is the link to Carrier on PBS

I'm tired, and this change of weather is bugging me.... I just want it to rain already!!!!!!!! the humidity sans rain is just bugging me. I'll kinda live, but its getting to me. ha ha
I am working on the afore mentioned projects, but those have slowed to a crawl. I mainly need to come to a decision on the pink blanket, to keep going or finish off soon. i'm undecided.

WIP

So i have been semi working on this off and on, and it's almost done. yay I am unsure if I should leave the edge as or put a simple edging on it. I wound up getting the book that this blanket was featured in but I don't like the edging in the book. anywho here are the pics!!! enjoy

Childhood memory

So I bought a bottle of sun in the other day and a memory came back to me. When i was around 9-12 ( can't recall the exact age) my mom bought a bottle of sun in to use on her hair. Well I felt the need to use the bottle and sprayed a halo on my hair. rofl i have dark brown/black hair which will turn red with sun in, so I had a red halo till the highlights faded. So just a moment in time that will forever be immortalized by a bottle of highlights. lol It also makes me wonder if my 2 girls will do something as crazy as that.

Exhaustion

Is a state i am currently in. I took 2 tylenol pm's last night and they have not yet worn off at 4.59 pm. I'm utterly exhausted. I just wanna sleeeeeepppppp.
But that won't happen till later because I still have things to do today. It is soccer practice day. yay ( note the sarcasm) I really need to finish this dang blanket so I can start the other one, maybe I will make some more progress today. It's the kitty face/bay windows blanket. I need at least 30-34 inches so that it is proportionate. I am hoping to take a pic soon. Oh that reminds me, note to self load SD card into camera and take camera to soccer practice.
At any rate, hopefully there will be some progress and I'll take pics later.

Good news of the weekend we sold our truck. yay!!!!!!!!! it only sat on craigslist for about a month. But there was lots of no shows and nibbles, but no bites. Well finally we got it sold, so that monkey is off our back. Our friends came down to visit for the day really, which was nice to see them. I am working on two baby blankets.... wait scratch that 3 baby blankets, 2 baby dresses and 3 pairs of slippers. ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!! but i will prevail.
I will post pics as i get done with projects. Oh wait and i'm still working on my potholder madness.

Houston and La Porte

Here are some pics via my mosaic. We drove around down town saturday and went to La Porte as well.

Flickr

Arrrgg they have a cap on uploads. *sigh* that blows that means I can't do my two mosaics I was going to because there are too many pics in my album. I know I know I could always upgrade, but i'm cheap that is why all my web stuff is usually the free stuff. lol
So I am sitting here stewing about my flickr access about to be cut off. allow me a moment or two.................................
Ok moment over.
At any rate, i usually don't have hate or contempt for flickr so this is just a momentary lapse.

I am almost done with a baby dress and blanket for a friend. She will be having a little girl so the dress will be a punk rock style, hot pink with some black stars. rock on little girl.

Soccer Season is upon us

and i am going to lose it lol.
I have had to run back and forth to the practice fields twice a week because their practice days are on different days. *sigh. this weekend their games start 10 minutes apart, thank goodness d can come and watch one while I am at the other. saves me the stress of trying to figure out what the heck I should be doing. At any rate. It is helping me schedule myself so that I don't run around all late to everything. I will post pics in the morning too tired to do it now. :D

Guitar Hero III

Wow, umm officially addicted to this game. And I am kicking ass at it too. lol
I spent all day today playing. Dh was really sweet and bought it for me yesterday as a late birthday present. I felt bad because he was using his birthday gift of a best buy card to buy it for me. But he also got a game -Fight Night Round 3 for PS2 since his PSP took a crap -
So he let me play ALL day. it was fantastic, i'm soo addicted to this game and really good at it so far. although after watching the guitar hero championships on youtube I realized i'm not all that good. lol.
I also have been hard at work on a few other projects. i decided to use my cone of cotton for good and am making pot holders. yay, nothing to fancy just the double thick ones that work up fast and easy. As soon as i get some done I will post some pics. Until then have a great rest of the weekend whatever is left of it :D

Real world

No not the show. lol
I live in the 'real world' i have been living in a bubble before this. The military community is something unlike anything else. Almost like an exclusive club with special cards and stickers involved. Here it's unlike anything i have ever experienced. And I admit i'm scared. ha ha

I have lived a military life pretty much my whole life, this foray into civilian life is a bit scary.
Oh well live to fight another day right?

So it's Thursday, the kiddos don't have school tomorrow semi happy about that, getting our water cooler delivered between 12-5 i'm most excited about that because I want to have good tasting water once again and it is a hot/cold cooler, so i can have hot water instantly. ( not really a problem here with the ground so hot for so long. :D)

Other then that not much else has happened this week. other then it started to get hot and i'm waiting on the big storm that should be happening soon. I'll try and get my thoughts together for another post later. i'm a bit lost at the moment. ha ha

Tuesdays post

Today I'm just a bit not there. I got up late ( this should have been the first clue) well actually i had to sleep on the couch since d was snoring so loud I couldn't fall asleep. So I get the kids up and everyone is slowly getting up. I go to make some coffee for d, spill grounds everywhere. *sigh* ok then I fill up the coffee maker, and the hose goes out of control ( ok ok it was my own fault but hey can't blame me for trying lol) and sprays me all over the face. Alright... I wipe off and continue on. I manage to get the coffee going without further issue. Able to get the kiddos off to the bus. yay maybe my morning is looking up.. Nope. I go to the garage, to get a bunch of boxes of packing stuff for the trash guys since we moved in. i tripped over some bikes and almost face plant on to d's total gym. Ok cool no one saw me. I open the garage door ( no injuries there) and start getting the trash out of the garage. I trip twice while carrying boxes mainly just making myself look foolish ( thank goodness no one was outside.)

After that my morning when smooth ( well I chose not to make it too hard for me. lol) I realize around 10ish that i need to get some gas for my car, last night the gas light dinged on me. So I thought alright let me do that before i get miss meadow from pre-k. Luckily no fires or gas spills. But as i am leaving Randalls I notice that i forgot to close my gas tank. I feel like a doofus even more so as people are motioning to me about it. Yes Yes I know I'm an idiot. Thanks for pointing that out. So i pull over and close my tank, then move on to picking up mead. I do fine till I get to the bank. I get out of my car and realize that i left my purse in there. grrr. I finally get in and stop doing damage to myself. Deposit my checks and go about my day.

I'm hoping that my day will improve. lets hope so. On a brighter note. I made a baby blanket. enjoy

So I've been 30 for 3 days its not bad. 30 is pretty awesome soo far. I got tons of well wishes from friends and family, which make me happy. People remember yay. lol anywho just a little update for now. I'll post a bigger update on monday, just enjoying sunday bliss for now.

everytime D leaves I get insomnia. welcome to my world.. it sucks it's 1 am and i can't sleep. well Happy Birthday to me. :D I'm 30 today. ya for me. :D
Edit:
so I got a comment ( thanks everyone.) i just realized how many typos i had in there ( yes i fixed them) guess when you post at 1 am things like that happen. lol

Enchanted

I got this movie a few days ago but was just able to watch it tonight. I want a fairy tale of my own. WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!

Tired and unmotivated

grrr i have stuff to finish, but have no desire to do anything. arg. quick someone motivate me!!!

Ok on to better and brighter things.. I have found myself drawn to watching Crossing Jordan. For some reason it is better on re-runs then when it came out on tv live. lol. I also seem unable to keep a train of thought for very long, I have misplaced my camera and it sucks because I want to take some pics. Sadly it's a small camera which makes losing it a bigger possibility then if i had my dslr. hint hint, dang hubby doesn't read my blog. oh well it was worth a shot.

I feel lost today with no real reason. My blog doesn't seem to have a reason at this point. ha ha.. when does it ever.

Some crazy stuff has happened lately, between my mom being sick and having surgery, my grandma having to move in with my brother, and just life in general... I feel like a lot of my thoughts and writing are disjointed, not able to connect with the previous sentence. Usually when this happens I wind up taking a break from writing, however the last time I did that I didn't write for about 18 months give or take. I don't want that to happen again. I like writing too much for that to happen. I hope I can snap out of it soon.

Rough few weeks

So the past few weeks have been pretty rough lots of personal stuff happening, lots of things I haven't blogged about here. I try to keep this blog light hearted and fun. In a nutshell, my mom was diagnosed with thyroid cancer a few weeks ago, she had surgery, got an infection, but luckily is now doing much better. But I haven't been myself because of all of it.

Lately I am not myself, not wanting to finish projects much less start ones that I need to, it's not cool. I'm trying to get back to myself and hopefully that will start happening soon.

I am still trucking along on my BFF's scarf, which is still just kinda half way done. I need to get off my arse and get it done, winter is over for her and I feel like crap for not finishing it sooner. *sigh*

Right now it's nice outside, weather is perfect. Perfect amount of sun, right amount of breeze, not too hot, not too cold. Perfect. I wish it would stay this way, but I know it won't :(

maybe i'll post pics later of my WIP's and how pretty it looks outside. :D

vacation

Soooo..... I'm in El Paso right now, staying with my parents for the next week. So I won't be blogging as much, mainly because I will have to blog from my cell phone which also makes posting pictures next to impossible.... boooo. Anyway I'll pop on to update. Have a great sunday, well what is left of it. :D

Smoke alarms

Mine are possesed. I do think. We haven't been here a year and we have changed the batteries 3 times. WTH I don't get it. I don't want to let the landlord know only because right now I don't have the $75 fee they charge to get someone to come look at it. So we live with an intermittent beeping when the smoke alarm deems its too hot and feels the need to beep. grrrrrr

Frogging

I had to undo 13 rows of my baby blanket. NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! All because i missed a Stitch 13 rows down so it made me one off. something I probably could have lived with but the perfectionist in me couldn't. I forget to take a pic of what 13 rows of yarn unraveled looked like but you can guess I was pretty pissed about the whole think. Took me another hour to get it all back. *Sigh* so now i am just 1 row ahead of where I was yesterday thanks to that snafu.

My sites are down. grrrr

I hate when vbulletin is acting up. All my fav forums are down right now. WTF is up with that. now is not the time to be screwing with me. arrrgggg..
