Bella's 1st day of school

Here's Bella when she was a baby. This is the way I want to remember her. She now, however is a 5 year old, Kindergartener, who started school today.

She did good even though she got stung by a bee today. I however, was having an awful day. Then the school called to say she got stung, but was doing fine. They just wanted to make sure she was not allergic.

After that call, I started having panick attacks. Then it was time to go get Marc from his 1st day in Middle School. He had to be the last out, to insure my attacks kept coming, & they did. After we got home & talked for a few minutes, it was time to go pick up the rest.

Then I had to run to the store to get supplies we didn't have yet. Yes! The kids now have me running my finger up & down over my lips, making silly sounds a crazy person would make.

It's early bed time for me tonight. I also have all the paper work they send home to have filled out. You know the ones were you have to fill out the same stuff at least 4 times, just for one kid?! Well, I have that multiplied by 4. (BIG SIGH)

Have a good one!!

Busy Busy Busy!!!

Here's just a little comic you've probably seen before. I haven't been able to blog much. I have been busy with trying to do a family tree. I have barely got started & it is hard for some people to get back with me on when they were born & what their full names are. Such hard questions & all.

I've also been busy trying to make room for furniture I wanted from my Grammie's house. It has been sitting there for forever & I decided I wanted it now. Waiting until I get room or when my Dad decides he wants to bring it, will never happen, so I had to push it. The only thing is I still have to rely on my Dad to help & getting him to do something for me is like pulling teeth & have you ever pulled teeth from someone who hasn't got any? That's my Dad, no teeth.

I've also been busy with the monsters & trying to get them ready for school. This year we had to do 6th grade orientation & Kindergarten orientation. The oldest goes to 6th grade, in the middle school, so a big change. He'll have to be there an hour earlier & get out an hour earlier. This will be the 1st year they change classes too, so that will be a big change, plus middle school is connected with the highschool. I don't know if he is ready & I know I'm not ready to trust him with it all. If only I can hold his hand & help him get to all his classes on time. :D I'm sure he is glad the school won't allow this.

My Timmie girl goes to 5th, we still don't know the teachers for her or her little bro because they won't post them until tomorrow or Friday. I hate how they do that, posting it at the last minute. Taz goes to 3rd. Then my Tinker Bell goes to Kindergarten. This will be the 1st time I will be left alone, since Monkey Boy - the oldest, came into the world. I will be lost. The one bad thing is, since my bedroom is in the Living room, & the hubby sleeps during they day, since he works at night, I won't have the house to myself & I won't be able to do extra cleaning. I will have the old stinky man in my bed, snoring all day. Plus we will not talk about the other noises that will be coming from him.

I would like to try & get a job, but I'm worried on how we will do that, since I have to take Monkey Boy to school at 7:15 & The rest at 8:15. Then Pick up Monkey Boy at 2:10 & 3:10 for the rest & of course I have to be home the rest of the day, after school.

My Dryer got balls!!!

When I 1st saw these in the store I couldn't help think that I would like them. Not for the same reason why everyone else would want them. Because I didn't get a close look at them. I wanted to, but the hubby was in a hurry & when he saw I was trying to look at them, he said that my dryer didn't need balls. (heeheehee) Well, I disagree, but I wouldn't tell him that. I think he wants his balls to be the only balls I handle.;) (heeheehee) . I never did get to see what they really were for until I started this post & found them on the web, just for me posting about it. Now that I read about them, I do think they may be interesting to have, just to see if they really work, but the reason I was interested in them in the 1st place, is so I could just say "my dryer had balls." I can be such a kid still.

Happy Birthday TinkerBell

This my TinkerBell when she was just a baby.

This is her standing next to the big fat momma.

This pic was taken July 8th at my Cousin's wedding.

She turned 5 today. In 2 weeks, she starts school.

She is no longer a baby, but she'll always be my baby.

The other people in the pic starting at the left:

Braydon, my older cousin's boy, then my Taz - Austin, my Monkey Boy - Marc, My Sponge Bob - Timothea, the birthday girl - My TinkerBell - Isabella, Crazedmomof 4 - big fat momma, & the Hubby - Scott.

Woman comes home to find house cleaned

I wish I had this problem!

CHARLESTON, W.Va. - When Debbie Phillips tried to report a crime, police just snickered. "I told him that someone came into my house and cleaned," the president of the Putnam County School Board said. "He just laughed."

The problem wasn't that her home smelled a little fresher or looked a little tidier. The problem was that Phillips had no idea who the mystery cleaner was.
Her husband denied cleaning up the joint. So did her next-door neighbor. Everyone she asked denied responsibility.
All she knew was the rugs weren't where she had left them that morning in June. Trinkets had been rearranged and in the master bedroom, the bed was made differently.
It didn't look like anything had been stolen, but she couldn't be sure.
Nearly a month passed before the mystery was solved. Her son called her at work recently after a cleaning lady arrived at the front door.
As it turns out, her neighbor across the street, with a similar house number, the same number of rooms to be cleaned and a house key hidden in a similar spot outside, had hired a cleaning service.

"They just came to the wrong door," Phillips said.

What are your thoughts on this?

Hey! I was think you might like to dance with me?

This cute little guy is my nephew & he is sitting with his cousin on his other side of the family. I fell in love with this pic & I'm asking my SIL to have it blown up for me, so I can frame it. It is just adorable. If only we could know what's going on in their minds or what they are saying.

I think this pic can tell a story all on it's own.

You can leave a comment on what you think they are saying, but please keep it clean. This is my nephew we're talking about.

My other thought on this is, "We take over the sweets table today & the world tomorrow....Mwahahaha..."

Body Parts

Time for another joke I got as an email:

Mrs. Parks asked her 8th grade class...
"Which human body part increases to 7 times its normal size when stimulated?"

No one answered until little Mary stood up, angry, and said,
"You should not be asking 8th graders a question like that! I'm going to tell my parents, and they will go and tell the principal, who will then fire you!"

With a sneer on her face, she then sat back down.

Mrs. Parks ignored her and asked the question again,
"Which body part increases to 7 times its normal size when stimulated?"

Little Mary's mouth fell open; then she said to those around her,
"Boy, is she gonna get in big trouble!"

Mrs. Parks continued to ignore her and said to the class,
"Anybody?"!

Finally, Kevin stood up, looked around nervously, and said,
"The body part that increases 7 times its size when stimulated is the pupil of the eye.

"Mrs. Parks said,
"Very good, Kevin,"
then turned to Mary and continued,
"As for you, young lady, I have three things to say:
(1) you have a dirty mind
(2) you didn't read your homework ; and
(3) one day you are going to be very, very disappointed!!!

___________
Hope you likes it.

Jokes

There was a guy who was running late for work. He passed a cop while he was speeding. The cop started to chase him to pull him over. He got a fool idea that he should out run the cop. So he speeds up. He is now going well, over double the speed limit. He then realizes what he is doing & what will happen to him if he keeps this up, so he pulls over.

The cop gets out of his car & walks up to the guy. "Do you know you were doing more then double the speed limit?" The cop asks the guy. "I'll tell you what. Since my shift is almost up for the day, I'll let you go if you can give me a good excuse that I've never heard before."

"Well, you see Sir," the guy responses, "My wife left me for a cop a year ago. When I saw your lights behind me, I was afraid you were him trying to return her. Thanks for not giving me a ticket."

There was a young minister who just left on a meeting in Jamica. His wife was gonna join him in a few days.

There was a lady in the church who's husband just passed away.

The young minister had sent the new widow an email trying to comfort her. He then sends his wife an email but hits the wrong address.

The widows family hears a loud sound in her study & goes to find she had passed out in front of the computer. Her son leans over to see what was on the screen.

To my Darling Wife,

I have arrived here safely & can't wait for you to join me in a few days. It is nice here, but I am missing you already.

Love,
Your Husband

P.S. Boy is it hot down here!

Baked Beans

One day I met a sweet gentleman and fell in love.

When it became apparent that we would marry,

I made the supreme sacrifice and gave upbeans.

Some months later, on my birthday,

my car broke down on the way homefrom work.

Since I lived in the countryside I called my husband

and told him that I would be late because I had to walk home.

On my way,

I passed by a small diner and the odor of baked beans

was more than I could stand.

With miles to walk,

I figured that I would walk off any ill effects by the time I reached home,

so I stopped at the diner and before I knew it,

I had consumed three large orders of baked beans.

All the way home, I made sure that I released all the gas.

Upon my arrival,

my husband seemed excited to see me and exclaimed delightedly:

"Darling I have a surprise for dinner tonight."

He then blindfolded me and led me to my chair at the dinner table.

I took a seat and just as he was about to remove my blindfold,

thetelephone rang.

He made me promise not to touch the blindfold

until he returned and went to answer the call.

The baked beans I had consumed were still affecting me

and the pressure was becoming most unbearable,

so while my husband was out of the room I seized the opportunity,

shifted my weight to one leg and let one go.

It was not only loud,

but it smelled like a fertilizer truck running over a skunk

in front of a pulpwood mill.

I took my napkin from my lap and fanned the air around me vigorously.

Then, shifting to the other cheek, I ripped off three more.

The stink was worse than cooked cabbage.

Keeping my ears carefully tuned to the conversation in the other room,

I went on like this for another few minutes.

The pleasure was indescribable.

When eventually the telephone farewells signaled the end of my freedom,

I quickly fanned the air a few more times with my napkin,

placed it on my lap and folded my hands back on it

feeling very relieved and pleased with myself.

My face must have been the picture of innocence

when my husband returned, apologizing for taking so long.

He asked me if I had peeked through the blindfold,

and I assured him I had not.

At this point, he removed the blindfold,

and twelve dinner guestsseated around the table chorused:

"Happy Birthday!"

....I fainted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got this in the email today!

The Wash Cloth

This is from another forward I got in my email:

I was due for an appointment with the gynecologist later in the week, but early on Monday morning, I received a call from his office to tell me that my appointment had been rescheduled for that morning at 9:30 AM. I had just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already around 8:45 AM. Since the trip to his office would take about 35 minutes, I didn't have any time to spare. As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits, but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the full effort. So, I rushed upstairs, threw off my pajamas, wet the washcloth that was setting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick wash in "that area" to make sure I was at least presentable.
I threw the washcloth in the hamper, donned some clothes, hopped in the car and raced to my appointment. I was in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in. Knowing the procedure, as I'm sure you do, I hopped up on the table, looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place a million miles away. I was a little surprised when the doctor said, " My, we've made an extra effort this morning, haven't we?" I didn't respond. After the exam, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home. The rest of the day was normal...some shopping, cleaning, cooking, etc. After school when my six year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom, "Mommy, where's my washcloth?" I told her to get another one from the cupboard. She replied, "No, I need the one that was here by the sink, it had all my glitter and sparkles saved inside it."

Clem pulled over the car by the side of the road and showed Jed where he'd first had sex.
"It was right down there by that tree. I remember the day plainly. It was a warm summer day. She and I were so much in love. We walked down to the tree and made love for hours," Clem recalled.
"That sounds wonderful," said Jed.
"Yes. It was okay until I looked up and noticed her mother was standing right there watching us."
"Oh my God! What did her mother say when she saw you making love to her daughter?"
"Baaaaa..."

Here is another forward I got today:

Dear Husband,
I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you for good.
I've been a good woman to you for seven years and I have nothing to show for it. These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell me that you had quit your job today and that was the last straw. Last week, you came home and didn't notice that I had gotten my hair and nails done, cooked your favorite meal and even wore a brand new negligee. You came home and ate in two minutes, and went straight to sleep after watching the game. You don't tell me you love me anymore, you don't touch me or anything. Either you're cheating or you don't love me anymore, what ever the case is, I'm gone.

P. S. If you're trying to find me, don't. Your BROTHER and I are moving away to West Virginia a together! Have a great life!

Your Ex-WifeDear
_____________________

Ex-Wife,
Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good woman is a far cry from what you've been. I watch sports so much to try to drown out your constant nagging. Too bad that doesn't work. I did notice when you cut off all of your hair last week, the first thing that came to mind was "You look just like a man!" My mother raised me to not say anything if you can't say anything nice. When you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me c onfused with MY BROTHER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago. I went to sleep on you when you had on that new negligee because the price tag was still on it. I prayed that it was a coincidence that my brother had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning and your negligee was $49.99. After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out. So when I discovered that I had hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason I guess. I hope you have the filling life you always wanted. My lawyer said with your letter that you wrote, you won't get a dime from me. So take care.

P. S. I don't know if I ever told you this but Carl, my brother was born Carla. I hope that's not a problem.

SignedRich and Free

This is an old joke but I still think it is funny:

A Florida couple, both bonified rednecks, had 9 children. They went to the doctor to see about getting the husband "fixed." The doctor gladly started the required procedure and asked them what finally made them make that decision; why after nine children, would they choose to do this. The husband replied that they had read in a recent article that one out of every ten children being born in North America was Mexican, and they didn't want a Mexican baby because neither of them could speak Spanish.

You Might Be A Redneck if you ever said...

A must see

I just got done watching The Second Chance starring Michael W.Smith & Jeff Obafemi Carr. It is an awsome movie & I highly recommand it.

It has a foot washing scene in it that made my cry. I do not know if you believe in speaking in tongues or not (this movie does not any of that in it) but the Spirit of God moved upon me in this scene & I spoke. I know this might creep some people out by me writing about it, but this moved me & I want to blog about it.

Our church does feet washing but I feel uncomfortable in how they do it. I feel they do it for more of a routine & to say that they do it, then what it really means. I feel the way it was done in this movie, is the way God meant it to happen.

No matter what your religion is, I think you will like this film. Even though it is about a church, it does not push a certain religion on you. So if you get a chance, I recommand you watch this movie.

Obsession

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four young mothers and their small children...

"You all have obsessions," he observed.

To the first mother, Mary, he said, "You are obsessed with eating.

You've even named your daughter Candy."

He turned to the second Mom, Ann, "Your obsession is with money. Again, it manifests itself in your child's name, Penny."

He turns to the third Mom, Joyce, "Your obsession is alcohol.

This too manifests itself in your child's name, Brandy."

At this point, the fourth mother, Kathy,

gets up, takes her little boy by the hand and whispers.

"Come on, Dick, we're leaving."
