I LIKE PENIS!

HAHAHAHA

O M G I thought I would fall out of the chair from laughter.

So... tonight's Grey's was a little better I think. Maybe? Maybe because I laughed more? Addison added a bit of nostalgia and comedy... McRebound?! HAH

OH and another fave: We sleep with boys like whores with tequila... hahaha

So yea I am thinking that Erica is totally digging Callie. Interesting. Tho the thought freaked Callie out so now she is going to sleep with McSteamy a lot.

The whole Jane Doe/Alex thing. So she is trapping him now cause he was ignoring her? With a fake pregnancy... tsk tsk tsk...

I absolutely LOVED the elevator scene. HAHAH

Well, I enjoyed the show... laughed a lot.

I am excited because we got our kitchen flooring yesterday and will be getting our living room flooring tomorrow... and this weekend we will be putting it down.. YAY! I am soooo happy to get a floor again! No more CEMENT! YAY!

And then on Saturday... our new bedroom furniture and mattress... YAY! I am so glad tomorrow is Friday and the end of this work week.

Nothing much to report

I am sleepy and cannot wait for the week to end. It used to be that i looked forward to coming to work. Now I just want to go home.

We finally took another step foward to finishing our home renovation. We got the kitchen flooring. We will go either today or tomorrow to get the bamboo flooring for the living room. I cannot WAIT.

Saturday we will be getting our new bed... I have been dreaming of this new bed since we bought it. Our new couches are ready for us to finish the flooring then we will have them delivered.

We also figured what we will do with our kitched cabinets and picked the countertop we want.

I cannot wait to get this D O N E.

I finished the first book in the Stars of Mithra series by Nora Roberts and now I am reading Captive Star (the second in the series). I am almost done with this one. I will probably finish it at lunch today.

I cannot wait to read the next Kresley Cole book that just came out and everyone has read it but me in our little unofficial book circle. :)

Honeybrowne is playing this Saturday at a place close by and I am thinking of going. I missed them the last two times I could have seen them. I guess it will depend on what we get done on Saturday to the house. We are also starting to get the pool cleaned out and ready. Christopher wants a pool party. I have to get his invites done ASAP so he can pass them out in enough time. Ashley is gearing up for her prom and her dress should arrive any day now. (2nd -9th) If I do not receive it by the 9th I will start getting worried. I have to get her invites designed this weekend for sure. It's hard to believe that she is graduating already. Even tho my relationship with her didnt begin until she was 14, it still amazes me how much she has grown since then.

Ok well back to work.

Weekend Recap

So Friday night, we took the kids to ITZ. What a fun time. We had a blast. The most fun was the bumper cars. I took some pics in one of those photo booths with Brian and Chris and then Brian and I did it together. They came out cute so I will post those when I am at home.

On Saturday we went to the Crawfish festival. The kids had such a great time. We saw Bob later in the evening and Christopher and Ashley finally got to see him perform. Chris was up front with me and Brian and was transfixed with Bob and Ollie. He and Ollie shared a few moments with a dead crawfish dancing and stuff. Chris got Bob's pick which he said is now his most prized possession. After the show, he got to meet Bob. I took a couple pics. I will post them later. Too cute how Bob was like let's make a mean face. He even wanted to see the pics after I took them. He was extremely patient. He talked to Chris and asked him if he liked the show and Chris was like Yea I did but it's over now. LOL Bob said yea it is buddy sorry. HAHA

Sunday was spent relaxing and easing our aching muscles from walking and walking and um all the rides the kids dragged us onto.

All in all it was a GREAT family fun weekend. We definitely need to do it more often!

Friday... Grey's... Weekend

First let me just say SCREAM FROM THE ROOFTOPS how FRIGGIN GLAD I AM THAT ITS FRIDAY!!!!!

This week has completely sucked from day 1. I am still coughing but it is finally less frequent. Let's recap this week shall we?

• Birthday: sick, power out, hotel room with one bed and five people
• Brian finds out he did not get the job because of the economy HR would not approve of them hiring him or some stupid crap
• Power goes out again on Thursday but comes back on
• SICK ALL WEEK
• LOST 30 LBS! One good thing

There are a few other things that happened that I don't need to go thru... I think this list is long enough.

The worst news was that the day that he was to get the offer letter, he got a call from the company saying they cannot hire him. So he is back at square one trying to find a job. I am starting to freak a little about it. He has less than a month to find a job. :( I am praying hard that something comes up for him.

Grey's Anatomy is back! *spoiler alert* Last night we reentered the world of the McDoctors we know and love. However, for being the first show since the strike, it didn't have that bang we would have liked to have seen. Instead, I think they opted to continue the story without as if we had been watching all this time. I still enjoyed the show even though it didn't submerse me in it's plot. The whole idea of the contest was dumb. Who does that?

I found the Lexie/George apartment theme fun... the fact that Lexie kept stealing stuff for the apartment was underplayed beautifully but she really did make that apartment more homey... Roaches gross. Something about McSteamy rubbed me the wrong way. I am not sure if it was that he lost weight or his haircut but something seemed off. His constant chauvenistic comments to McDreamy got on my nerves. Anyway... the patients were interesting. Cheech was a hoot. I love Cheech. The other patients had an interesting story but that stupid contest overshadowed everything. DUMB. I will never forget the whole TUMOR! incident. It was almost as if she was thrilled to know that the dude's tumor was the reason he married the rebound girl. That part was sad and callous. The whole Dr. Han and Callie friendship is weird and they are total bitches to Christine which I think is sad. And finally... Meredith talks to a shrink. ABOUT DAMN TIME. that woman is so annoying.

This weekend, I plan on going to the movies tonight. I am allowing my husband to come along. He owes me a good time. Don't you think? Saturday we are going to the Crawfish Festival in Old Town Spring. Chris and Ashley will finall y get to see Bob Schneider. yay.

Ok well now that I have bored you enough... have a good weekend.

Over the hump...

This week that started so horribly is finally almost over. I am hoping it ends on a happy note.

I am feeling slightly better. I went to the doctor yesterday and got some rx for meds, including another inhaler that has some refills on it. I think this all started with my allergies... aggravated into bronchitis. Tho my doctor said it was bronchial asthma. So whatever. BUT... the GOOD NEWS I got this week is now I have officially lost 30 lbs! YAY! *happy dance* I have lots more to go but this is a great start. My clothes are not fitting me anymore and that is a good problem to have, I guess, but I cannot afford to go out and buy myself a new wardrobe. Although it is something I will have to do this weekend... new pants for sure.

So I finished Sandra Brown, Fat Tuesday, and it was pretty good. Some parts were adrenaline pumping and some parts I kinda skimmed. But all in all, I still love to read a good Sandra Brown book. She is good at the twists and turns and she never seems to leave anything unexplained. Everything in the story has a purpose and justice is served once again. Her characters are not always perfect. They are complex and sometimes warped. A good read.

Now I am starting to read some old Nora Roberts, Stars, which has two of her older stories in it. Part of the Stars of Mithra series I think. Anyway, I am just in the third chapter so far and already she has my attention. That's Nora Roberts for ya.

This weekend I am planning on going to the Crawfish festival in Old Town Spring. (The blogger dictionary did not recognize the word "Crawfish". Isn't that funny?) I hope it turns out to be a fun time. I think I deserve a fun time... dammit. Friday I plan on getting a manicure and pedicure after work. My own birthday present. That is, if I feel better and stop coughing up a lung every two seconds.

Christopher, my almost 10 year old, has been going to Nicholas' friend's church on Wednesdays. Nick goes with him to help out the leaders who run the children's bible study which is great. Anyway, Chris got an study guide/activity book today that he already started. He is taking a great interest in learning bible verses. I am glad. I am so proud of my boys. :)

Ashley, my oldest stepdaughter, is all bummed and being a teenager with the drama about prom and how her beau in Indiana may not come for prom. Something about his mom charging him rent or something. She wants him to stay a long time (so he can go to prom and to her graduation) and she has to realize that he may not have the money to stay that long. And if he can come at least to one of the events and maybe just a weekend, that would be good too. I mean it is better than NOTHING right? Well, not to her but she is a teenager and cannot see the forest for the trees.

Ok that is all for now. Off to bed. :)

As if my birthday could not get any worse...

They never came and turned our power back on yesterday. Even after Brian took care of it. Apparently he never told them PRIORITY so they didn't make it one. So I spent my birthday at a hotel room.

I am still sick. I cannot stop coughing and I am over it already. I am pretty much ready for this week to end.
