Tuesday and no Gilmore Girls!

A very lazy Tuesday today at work. Its the end of the month and I'm pretty much done with what I have to do. I have 6 things that plan on paying tomorrow but nothing else to do. There aren't any incoming calls to answer so I'm pretty much sitting around thinking about how tired I am (stupid me ate turkey for lunch-ugg) and how much I would like a nap.

I have a new semi-addictive vice here, and I blame by Yogi, I am LOVING dark chocolate covered Ginger. Its very tasty and apparently Ginger is an appetite suppressant (except for more dark chocolate covered Ginger).

Tonight Dale is getting his hair cut, I am running to Kohl's to return a shirt I bought for Robin's wedding, buying Dale a birthday card, buying Laura an early birthday card, buying stamps, and running to get the kids. No idea what I am making for dinner or when Dale will be home from the haircut.

Thanksgiving Update.

Thanksgiving update:

Spent Thanksgiving (my birthday) at my parents house. The kids were reasonably well behaved. I got some new sheets for my bed for my birthday from my parents.

Friday we went to the Reynolds to see Jeff and Kristie, visited with Jeff and also saw Ralph and Jamie and Mark Muench, who brought Vic up-we arranged to spend time with them Saturday night.

Saturday I had to work 5 hours (no biggie) although I don't know if I mentioned my "good deed gone wrong" from last week.

This guy I works with has no car and no bank accounts and wanted a ride to cash his check. I didn't want to spend my whole lunch hour driving 3 miles away to get to a bank, just because "I hate the other branch around here." OK, so I drive around on my lunch hour for 25 min trying to find him a bank he "liked." Finally he ended up going to a Check Cashing place which I guess charges him $30.00 to cash his check.

He is all pissed AT ME because he has to spend this to cash his check?!!! Is it my fault he chooses to not get a car (long story), and doesn't "like" bank accounts (how can you exist and not have a bank account?) and that he has to pay a fee to cash his check!

Now he isn't speaking to me for 3 days, ok whatever. Like I care….

So Saturday this guy is working as well. About 11:30 he comes over "Can you drive me across the street to Walgreens after work?" I'm like "Sorry I have to go the other way and get to my in laws right after work." He flounces off in this big SNIT because I won't drive him across the street!

Then I learn today from another coworker that he asked another girl we work with for a ride, she basically said, "Sorry, I have to leave right after work." And he actually comes back at her with "(big dramtic sigh) "well it's just across the street." And stomps off!
If it's just across the street, walk your lazy ass over there!!!

Saturday afternoon we dropped the kids off at my parents after I picked up the pack n play for Owen. Saturday afternoon Mark and Vic came over and we played a few hands of Chrononauts and also Settlers of the Stone Age. Had dinner at Casa del Rio. Went to bed early

Sunday watched football, went to Ocnonomowoc for groceries (yum), watched some Northern Exposure-Season 3 and went to bed.

This week, no big plans, Oil Changes on Friday, Dale's 31st Birthday on Wednesday"

Update: Week of November 21

A long weekend.

This weekend started out with Friday being a long day. We had to take Owen for his 2nd flu shot, the girls stayed overnight with my folks to go to a band concert so I didn't see them for 2 days.

Friday we went to Kohls and I found 2-3 tops for Robin's wedding at like 85% off, plus I had an extra 10% off coupon, which means I found shirts for, and I shit you not, $1.35. Crazy Crazy Crazy. I have to return one thing (didn't look right) later this week.

Watched 3 movies this week: Charlie & The Chocolate Factory (pretty neat), Fever Pitch (not ½ bad), and Madagasar (the kids liked it, I only saw bits and pieces of it), I also bought Northern Exposure: Season 3-watched most of disc one-super good one of my all time favorite shows!

Saturday we took the kids to Brueggers Bagels for lunch (Mya ate a WHOLE bagel with PB & J, Mya never eats a whole ANYTHING….), we then went to the world best Pick N. Save in Oconomowoc for shopping. We then ate lunch #2 at Pick N Save as they have about 100000 samples. Yum Yum.

We basically chilled at home the rest of the day, raked the millions of leaves still in the yard (everyone had fun-it was cold), napped everyone and had dinner. No big deal for the day.

Sunday we had Auntie V come over, we went to the Christmas Parade downtown. I managed to bring in all my Halloween candy to get rid of it, now I have a pound of candy from this parade. The people in the parade were even chucking candy at OWEN who was sleeping on my moms lap. What the hell? It was very very cold outside, but the kids saw Santa. Malinda then informed me Mya is scared of Santa, and Mya informed me "I scared of Santa."

Last night I lost my fantasy game (I blame Dale who started Jake Plummer for me and me for allowing him to Start Jake Plummer) and watched more Northern Exposure, did some cross stitch, cleaned the kitchen and made a chicken ring for the food day at work today, and went to bed.\n

I also finished "A Feast for Crows" way good, there is supposed to be another book out soon, most excellent. I am starting to read "The Bourne Supremacy" which should take a good week or so to plow through.\n

This week being Thanksgiving I don\'t work Thursday, I work Friday for 3 hours and work Saturday for 5 hours. Have an event Friday afternoon at 2pm, Saturday, no plans, Sunday, no plans.

Just to REMIND everyone, My 29\nth birthday is THURSDAY. You are more than welcome to buy me songs on itunes ;).

Catching Up

Catching you all up…..

It's been a pretty busy week or so here. I've been planning and cooking and buying food for Robin's party (wedding shower) which was Saturday. It was a Mexican theme since Robin is getting married in Mexico. We had about 20 people (?) and enough food to feed 40 ( I would guess.) We ate Mexican for dinner Saturday night, Lunch and Dinner Sunday. Then I am having more Mexican today for lunch. My thought is if I never see another taco shell after this week it will be too soon!

Robin got a TON of kitchen stuff and she seemed pretty pleased. I met her future M-I-L and her future Aunt in Law (?) They drove all the way out here from Vermont and Pennsylvania (respectively) very long trip!

Dale and Fred took the girls to the zoo and they had a nice time. Malinda went and cracked everyone up, she was watching the cows get milked and they were mooing, whatever, Dale said "would you like to talk to the cows?" Thinking she would just moo back. So she walks up to the cow and says "Hello, why are you so nice?" What the hell? I guess Dale and Fred cracked up over that one.

Sunday was windy (40 mph) and crappy so the kids stayed inside. Malinda decided to play with her poop again Sunday AM so we started out the day GREAT! She fell at Toni's house last week and gashed her hand pretty good, well playing with her poop and getting poop in her cut means she now has an infected cut in her hand. We are zipping her up backwards in her jimmies from now on (sigh).

Friday night I had my twins club meeting, it was pretty good. I'm perturbed with someone in the club for the controlfreak way they are handling something, but I'll survive.

This week, Yoga tonight, Wednesday night is a Scrapbook meeting for Memory Junction, Friday we only have 1 kid, and that on day he gets a 2
nd flu shot. Saturday I have no plans, maybe we will hit Betty Brinn?

Jeff and Kristie are here next week, we\'re planning on trying to see them.

I also got the 4th book in the Fire and Ice series "A Feast of Crows" by George R.R. Martin, they have delayed the publishing of this book like 2 years. It's been crazy. Its pretty good so far. I just finished "Wicked" which was also really good. "
