We're all packed besides fridge items and the camera batteries that I am charging as we speak... I type.

A lady is supposed to come this morning toget the baby clothes I put on Kijiji. Theres 1 lady who offered 40 on the elliptical (i was going to put 70 but i just want it gone at this point.) i havent heard back from her after i said i would take the 40. I had another woman message me afterward saying she wanted it would pay the 50 on it and pick it up friday. So YAY! its gone regardless ;) I can start planning for that space.

Well... I gotta go get tidying my livingroom. I want to come home to a clean house. My bathroom is scrubbed and alot of clothes got put away yesterday :)

All by Myself

:)

Just lazing around in my sauna reading a book.

Kev had troy over to have a few beer. The only got 8 (Ithink) packs and they started early so i figured they would want to go out adn have another. They are so predictable. Troy is a bit of a liquor-pig (using teh phrase that i HATE) and when the beer is gone he always (if he has money or can borrow some) wants to go out and have that "last" one. (AKA get as drunk as hell and not be seen for days.) When he gets to that point he wants someone to go out with him. He asks kev and kevin thinks its a great idea so he runs it by me. (I am not his mother and I refuse to be put in a situation where i ahve to say no.)
When he asked this time I told him to go. A) I am not not not not in the mood to fight over stupid shit. and would REALLY like to LIKE him when we go on vacation... To be hateful and hurt and so on so close to going away would COMPLETELY ruin my trip. and B) when I laid down that law it was about wednesday nights. I am DYING DYING to go to kareoke at the elm tree but kevin wont go with that (unless its troy, end of evening and he doesnt have to take me because theres no sitter.)
I will be using this as cannon fodder eventually anyway. An old friend asked me today if i wanted tog et together sometime for old times sake and have a few drinks. Mind you I would NEVER spring it on him last minute and I would NEVER leave him home with the kids without a babysitter if i were going out drinking. But it is 12:30 and he said hed be home by 1 and he only took 5$ (I am trusting him that he didnt slip more out of his wallet before he showed me the 5$ LOL).

Anywhoooo Im going to go read another chapter, catch a cat and then i am going to go to SLEEP... HOPEFULLY.

WHHIIIINNNNNNNEYYY household

Ugh It is SO FRIGGING HOT!

And it is JUST THAT MUCH HOTTER in the kitchen. There are dishes to be done and supper to be planned but WOW. It is a sauna in there! I am DYING.

Kev got the call today. He got a new job! it will be 8-4 everyday. He will be home EVERYNIGHT for supper. I AM SO FRIGGING EXCITED i tell ya. After 6 months there will even be BENEFITS!

I am going to freaking beat my kids in about 2 seconds... WOW. Donavan is SOOOO cranky with the heat. he is basically walking around the house VERY SLOWLY yelling and whining and screaming angrily. Samara is hot and bored so she is trying to antagonize him CONSTANTLY and rive me crazy.

????

Have I said yet how HOT its been?!?!?!

HOLY COWBOYS!

And now Donavan stinks. Ew... Thats a mess I am NEVER looking forward to cleaning... I need to think about breakfast and then figure a few things out.

Kevin doesnt think we have enough money for our trip but we are GOING... YES WE ARE...

I think were going for a walk with roylene this afternoon. Should be fun. :):)

CLEANING CLEANING

I hate cleaning, I never finish anything.

It is so hot in here I want to PUKE.

I am bored and crabby.

Maggies place tomorrow. It is a fun day where you pretty much spend the day with your kid but i dont think ill be aving a good time... A girl i know caught me in a "i cant say no" situation. She asked if i was going. I said yes, if im signed up for it. then she said she was asking becuase she was going to see if i would "watch" her daughter during it so she could take her son to an appt. Yay. I get to play babysitter to her wildly active dicipline-free child who is JUST potty trained while ATTEMPTING to have a "good" time with my own children while chasing them. I should ahve said no, i wasnt going but i missed 2 already adn I know samara misses it.

Ugh.

This is Me

...

Not cleaning my house.
Why? you ask?

I DONT WANT TO.
LOL
I just ate and now I am full...

Cup Of Cake:

IN A MUG MIX:

4 TBSP flour
4 TBSP sugar
2 TBSP cocoa

IN A MEASURING CUP/BOWL MIX:

1 egg "beat" with a fork
3 TBSP milk
2 TSP oil

POUR INTO MUG AND MIX WITH THE DRY ING.

ADD

3 TBSP chocolate chips (optional)
SMALL SPLASH vanilla

MIX AGAIN

MICROWAVE ON HIGH 3 MINUTES. COOL A BIT THEN DUMP FROM MUG TO PLATE.


I didnt try with the chocolate chips. i enjoyed it. it wasnt light or fluffy of course. hard to discribe but the quick adn easiness of it really appealed to me :)

Oh What To Do

Miss Samara WILL NOT play in her room STILL. I think that I a going to go through ehr toys again. What is the sense of her room being FILLED with a million toys and things when she only EVER plays with ANY of it when there is another kid over. It drives me BATTY!

Yeahhh

So the other day my clothesline snapped... Can you imagine the words coming from my face when the back neighbor came to the door to tell us? Yeah. Shitty, needless to say.

Sat at outpatients for hours yesterday with kevin after his bloodwork. Ultra fun, you can imagine. Only 4 hours so it could have been worse.

This time he has 2 antihistamines and steroids for a week. Lets see what happens.

Ian was supposed to call today to take samara for a bit,,, want to guess who hasnt called yet adn its 10 after 3. Asshole. Good freaking thing i didnt tell samara isnt it. To think i dressed her any everything...

Bought a new sundress yesterday and I am wearing it today :)

:)

Yesterday was such a great day I had to blog about it...

Starting with the night before:

Kev had a couple guys down to have some beer. I was bored out of my tree alot of the time but it wasnt that bad I guess. Any excuse to stay up late and have people around.

Yesterday morning Kev came in and woke me up at around twenty to 8 in the morning. He was up so he figured I must be too, right??? He wanted to go for breakfast and maybe stop by angela's yardsale (way out by the soccer fields...). We got up, chucked donavan in the stroller and headed out. Sherry'shairdresser neighbor/ friend was haveing a yardsale too so we figured we would head up by there and take a look. I spent about 5 bucks...

The highlights:

-Fur Real friends kitty for a quarter. it has batteries in it and it works. It is about the size of Valentine and reallly looks like him... Ive gone to tell "him" to get off the table a few times last night... Donavan keeps hauling it to the catfood/ water to "feed" it... So cute.
-walking barbie dog.
-3 books, bus driver from the black lagoon, corderoy, and a kids bible story book.
-2 anne geddies pictures. a small one of a baby sleeping on a high pile of towels. I put that in the bathroom on top of the shelf thing. the other is bigger and it is the teddy bears picnic. I hung that in Donavan's room by his bed.
-a wiggles guitar
-some fairy wings

Then we headed to mcdonalds for breakfast. It wasnt bad. LOL. what you get is what you get.

After mcD's we walked (in the scorching heat) to Brentwood to Angelas yardsale. Kev got a few vhs's and I got a beauty and the beast sheet for samara's bed, a cabbagepatch bear (Furkids or whatever) in great condition with ALL of her clothes, and a book by Tami Hoeg that I havent read yet. Yay.

Then to Walmart where we got kev a new pair of shorts finally. Then the mall where we met up with Kelly and had a fast chat. then A&W for lunch/ SO FREAKING expensive but i love it in there. LOL.

We stayed home the rest of teh day :):)

Today some cleaning... starting with more clothes to hang out. Yay,,,, :P

Stephanie is supposed to come over today toget her hair dyed. Hopefully she shows up early becuase im thinking around 3 i might pack up my boy and head for sherry's so Donavan can play in his pool :):)

Well Off to do a load fo laundry and some dishes...

It is Finally Over

My funk has lifted and I can go on being a good person again... Instead of a 2 headed dragon.

I have been so cranky with my friends and depressed in general for the past few weeks that I just wanted to stay in my little cocoon(sp). I didnt think it would be this bad but it is this bad and worse. Ive even been avoiding my friends facebooks, phonecalls, and blogs. Isnt that sad?

I hate that were stuck for teh summer. I SOOOO wanted a car before now. I even expected we would SOMEHOW have one. I couldnt face the idea of NO beach and NO camping all summer. My poor kids wont be able to experience my favourite activities this summer... I tried to make myself feel better by saying things like, "Well I have Iris's campout to look forward to...." and "Sherry will be going to Five Islands quite a bit this summer...."

The fact of that matter is Iris's campout is in August and ALL OF MY FRIENDS have albums after albums of camping pictures on FB. They are calling to tell me what a great time their babies had camping for teh first time.
And A) sherry hasnt seriously mentioned going to the beach yet and she is one of those gas conciencious(sp) people who see the price of gas and immediately say "Well, I guess we're not going anywhere this summer".

(Ill add a minor rant just for the sake of SCREAMING IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!!!:

So I am planning Kev and My little trip to whereever we can get with no car and kev mentions it to Sherry and she chats with me about the little places for a few minutes then she says, "I should plan my vacation soon... I'm thinking Upper Clements would be nice." Um OUCH. Upper Clements WOULD be nice. Thanks for teh reminder that I am having a shitty little summer.

Ive even been avoiding Krystle because ALL SHE TALKS ABOUT IS CAMPING and the BEACH. I cant take it... )

So why am I feeling that BIT better?

Kev and I are going to look into renting a cabin for a couple days. Ill have all the details tomorrow. It will be relaxing, romantic, time actually spent TOGETHER without the television, computer or video games. I cant wait. Once I get the information I am going to be planning EVERYTHING. Food and drinks to take, activities, I am SO excited. I can handle all of this shitty summer crap and really look forward to it. All of my days spent in my house, hateful and NOT CLEANING for the lack of energy or all of my days walking TO THE MALL to get out of my hot little house will be worth it becuase I (WE!) WILL have a good time. And I cant wait! I will be counting down the days!

Canada Day

:)

I love canada day in amherst. It is looking cool and over cast out so im hoping it gets sunnier maybe? Ill need to steal my batteries away from kev so i can take my camera and get shots of samara having fun and eating cotton candy. Hopefully someone that I know and LIKE will be uptown or itll just be me and the kiddies. Fun but i do enjoy my adult perspective... ;)
