sick day + rainy day + mommy has a headach =

Let’s build a fort and hang out day!

And not the canned meat kind either. Although, now that I think about it, that is a mystery to me as well.

Okay, what is the deal with spam? Do you know? ‘Cause I sure don’t!

I went to my Akismet box thingy, and it said I had 107 spam comments. I was kinda hoping it had it wrong and those were actual comments that you had sent to let me know how much you love me.

But it wasn’t.

I can’t make heads or tails out of that junk. I don’t even know what they say. I am guessing that they are all typed in a different language because most of them just look like a bunch of letters to me. And up under, what I am guessing is the spam comment, is about 8 links (for each comment spam thingy) which I am totally scared to click on ’cause you never know where a link will take you.

And I don’t really care to find out where they lead, I just want to know why they are showing up on my blog!

And yes, thingy is a technical term, just in case you were wondering.

Jess tagged me a couple of days ago for this little meme

6 random things about me

1. I’m back from my blogging break a couple of days early. Sarah getting sick has just turned my days upside down and I have found myself blog hopping from one to the next. She has been so clingy the past two days. She like to look at your blogs with me! She loves all the pictures and when one has a video we have to watch it over and over again.

2.  I never finish anything. I start something and when it is about halfway finished I stop working on it. I have no clue why I do this.

3. wii fit is kicking my behind! I am so sore! I LOVE the yoga and can’t wait to unlock more

4.  It makes me sad that big hair bands from the 80’s have made their way to our local oldies station. I mean it’s not been THAT long ago!

5. I am terrible about making hair appointments! And I need one bad but I can’t get in until Sept. 13th. My cute little bob cut is starting to look like a big mess!(I have not been since June 5) Each time I get my hair styled it is always different from what I had before. Last time, I went red with blondish highlights,next time I think I am going to go chocolate with caramel highlights. Yes, I think too much about my hair.

6. I am terrible with directions. Of all kind, but mainly driving directions. I get lost ALL the time. No matter if I have been there a hundred times or not. We live in a small town and just about every time I go to the post office I get lost!

Okay, I tag Tracey, Sherri/Megan,  Leah, Sarah,Tabitha,  Sheila

Here are the rules:1. Link to the person who tagged you

2. Post the rules to your blog

3. Write 6 random things about myself

4. Tag 6 people at the end of your post and link to them

5. Let each person you have tagged know by leaving a comment on their blog.

6. Let the tagger know when your entry is posted.

Those who know me, and those of you who have read my blog for any amount of time, know that, for me, clean hands are a must! And my biggest pet peeve is using the restroom and NOT washing! It only takes a minute people!

David sent me this CUTE Hoops & Yoyo video and it made me smile real big!

HA! So CUTE! I love it when he says,isn’t it fun washing our hands!

In other words, all other plans out the window.

I was hoping to get some schooling in with Emily and Audrey today but that turned out to be a big NO!

My to do list, another big NO!

Right now she’s watching Emily & Audrey play Dream Life.

So, I thought I’d sneak away, eat lunch, and try to get in a blog post.

She’s had a pretty high fever for the past two days and today she started complaining with her throat. She’s not wanted to eat or drink anything today.

Until I offered her a spoonfull of peanut butter.

Then she wanted more.

So, for lunch today, she had a plate of peanut butter.

Yum!

I did have a chance to sit down yesterday and work on my recipes. Boy, I am the most unorganized person on the face of the earth. I have recipes EVERYWHERE! I finished going through one of the kitchen drawers. Now I need to go through two more, and then I’ll need to work on going through my cookbooks. Big BIG mess!

Hopefully, tomorrow will be a more productive day.

Wanna hear a funny story? Do you ever have one of those “you have got to be kidding me” moments? Well, I have them all the time and this little ditty will give you a glimpse into what my sweet husband has to put up with most of the time. We have Sarah’s baby crib in our bedroom. It is on my side pushed right up against the bed. (She started out in a co-sleeper and I have just gotten used to her being by my side.)

Plus, I am just a little lazy because I do not want to get up out of the bed to get her, this way I can just reach over and pick her up.

Anyway, the other night she started crying and I put her in the bed with us and she started pointing at her blanket. So, I get her blanket out and hand it to her. She lays there a minute and she starts pointing and saying “Pooh” This is where it gets interesting and my laziness gets me in trouble.

 With her bed being right there I can just stick my hand through the rails and grab her stuff up for her. But on this particular night Pooh Bear was just a little too far over for me to reach. I go in a little further, just a little more. Finally, I have pooh in my grasp but I can’t move my arm.

 I am stuck!! I start pulling and twisting, all the while holding on to Sarah, finally I realize I am going to have to wake up David. I started whispering “David” again ~ nothing ~ so I have to start poking him and he jumps up (thinking something is wrong) only to hear me say “I’m stuck” The look on his face was priceless (at the time I did not think this was a funny situation to be in at 3:00 in the morning) Once he saw what I was talking about he started laughing! He pulled and pulled for a minute nothing. He finally pulled the rails apart, it took a minute but I was finally able to pull my arm out. Boy, it hurt and it is still sore!

Emily (8) - Mommy, find out today where the petting zoo is (we could not find it last time)

Me - I will Emily

Emily - Ask this time

Me - I asked last time

Emily - Well, ask somebody that works there

Me - I asked somebody that works there last time

Emily - Who did you ask?

Me - I don’t know it was some lady

Emily - Well, ask a man today, they know everything!

But I have to interrupt this blogging break to let you know that FINALLY we got a wii fit!

We’ve not hooked it up yet, we’re waiting on David, because I don’t even know how to operate the wiii without asking Emily or Audrey!  I’m slow that way =P

So my list may not get done after all! Well, the exercise part will so that counts for something!

Now, back to my bloggin’ break!

Yes, again! I KNOW!

I’ll be taking another blog break. This time instead of a couple of days, it will be two weeks. I have several things that I need to get done and this here computer just gets in the way!

I will be setting up some old posts of mine, from here, and HSB, to automatically post on certain days just so my blog is not just sitting.

Well, incase you are wondering here are a couple of things I will be working on.

• My home/school binder
• Organizing my recipes (oh, do I have a mess on my hands)
• Clean and organize my closet (another mess)
• I bought some material a couple of weeks ago and I need to make aprons for three little girls!
• Go through my scrapbook stuff. Maybe even do a page or two.
• Getting in some type of exercise (I wanna wii fit)

Hope you have a wonderful couple of weeks (I’ll stop by and visit when I can)
