Mail me!

We pulled a dropship from our case last night-wow! (for you non mw fans out there this is meaningless-but trust me its cool). We had fun with the girls last night, Mya is standing on her own now and I guess she will be walking soon!

Thanks to the Reynold's and Kieran for joining our daycare! We all got a free week-so the free week paid for the case of MW exactly! wowie!

This weekend we have Saturday off, playing with D, Sunday planning a visit to the pool, maybe Damon and Jen and Brooke will be able to come along...?? who knows?

Had the girls birthday party on Sunday. Had a many many people there. The girls enjoyed playing with Kieran and Brooke (Damon's daughter) and generally running around like crazy people. They were way exausted when we got home and simply fell into bed.

I had yesterday off, sick day. The girls are still sick.

They got a lot of wonderful stuff from everyone and seemed a bit overwhelmed once they woke up the next morning and saw all the toys and stuff!

Yesterday I was able to get a lot done at home, laundry, framing the 1yr pictures, baked cookies and brownies and did dishes-whew!

Tonight is MW at hobbytown :) and its a gray ass rainy day...makes me feel like I'm in Seattle.!

Yesterday I ate lunch at "Real Chilli" and boy was it yum.

Today I discovered something slightly disturbing about my bosses boss. He has this habit of talking to customers and using the phrase "you people." As in "when are you people going to pay this lease?" Now I know he means "you people" to be "the people in charge at your business or organization," however he called a customer this morning that happens to be an Islamic/Black Fundamentalist organization and was using the phrase "you people" like 15 times in the conversation. He couldnt seem to grasp why the lady he was taking to was getting more and more upset every time he said "we dont want to deal with this from you people for 30 months, and when will you people be making the payments?" Im feeling its a lawsuit waiting to happen if I repo them.. thoughts?

yesterday ran MW, came home and watched a bit of the olympics (yawn) and some of the e true hollywood story on "The exorcist." My kids dont want to sleep at daycare so Mya had 30 min of nap yesterday....last night she was very cranky for grandma.....we have to figure out how to get them to nap at daycare! anyone have any suggestions??

Today I have to go to sam's club and get soda and beer and snacks for the party, i also have to buy gifts for the kids who are coming (anika, my 3 cousins)-im gonna just hit Libby Lu on Saturday and get the three girls some girly stuff and my cousin joey, i have no idea...maybe something he can destroy or a football or something.....
Mail me!

Yesterday my dad got a hole in one at moor downs. They gave him the flag for the hole and hes getting the ball framed and his name will be in the paper. He's very proud of himself.!!!! Good Job Dad!

Mike stopped by last night. he moved to Virgina not Portland (why did I think portland) he is BIG into spellfire and they now do online boosters. They have created a card for an old D&D character I had...here is the link to my picture: Mary's Card Its a long story and an old joke... I had to sign my card for mike which I imblazoned with "mary's ass" over the ass of the card.

Watched the last episode of Freaks and Geeks last night, it is so sad this show is over, it sucks.

Tonight is MW---only like 9 days till the new set comes out!!!

The girls birthday party is this saturday and as previously mentioned, you're all welcome to stop by...please let me know if you are planning on that so we can have alot of food and bev's for you!

This past weekend we went to madison to see Robin on her birthday (happy late birthday robin)! We went to AMERICAN PLAYERS THEATRE and saw a very little known Shakespeare play called Cymbeline. It was very good. We had a cookout with Robin and Jason and all her friends. I spent time talking to Tommy and Leah (congrats on the baby due in Feb, great grandchild #33 for the sherwinski brood!)

we got pulled over on the way home for having a defective headlight, what a joke that was-not even a ticket....arg!

Sunday gamed with Dustin and hung with the girls, took them to the park and had a bath and then a pretty early bedtime. Watched the end of Disc 6 of FREAKS AND GEEKS. Watched about 10 min of the Olympics.

Tonight seeing an old friend, Mike from way back....

OUR WORK EMAIL IS HOSED! ahhhh....no work emails for a week and anyone who sent me anything has been deleted. damnit. crabby ass day. malinda bit mya so hard 2 nights ago now Mya has a bruise on her arm.
Mail me!

Yesterday we finished organizing the mech room and now have 23 mechs for sale on line-yippie, free money to buy more mechs. lucky us.

Also was able to cook dinner for 1st time in weeks? Had this taco bake thingy-very yum, had rest for lunch with ham samich on the side, double yum-made even better by grape bubble gum dessert.

The guy I work with is getting married, hes 39-1st marriage-had his car hit and run'd last night-2nd time in less than 2 months-sucks to be him!

Watched disc 5 of freaks and geeks last night, watching the new lost boys dvd tonight. :)
Mail me!

Today I am tired. I didnt sleep very well last night, my back hurts. I spent latter part of last night organizing the mech room and now it is clean(ish). Tonight I am going to try and get Dale to fix the clogged bathroom sink. Malinda bit Mya at daycare yesterday and I had to sign this incident report because my kid is a biter. Their teacher said "well we thought it was so cute that Malinda was trying to kiss Mya until Mya started screaming." I should have told them Minda does not kiss, she bites. (her dad was a biter too).

Dale's grandma Sally isnt doing very good. She just had a breast removed due to cancer and went back in to start chemo and her PET scan found 4 or 5 other cancer "hot spots." So Dales uncle Bob (hes a dr) is going to tt her doctor and find out what the deal is....good luck grandma!
Mail me!

Yesterday Dale had to get his haircut with Jen so I picked the girls up and we spent some time at my parents, we had dinner and gave the kids a bath and my parents took them for a walk. Did a lot of ebay shipping last night and then read a book.

Tonight is faction wars at hobbytown and I have pitched in a Vincent DeLeon for a prize, yippie!

Today I went to TJ MAXX for lunch and bought a laundry hamper, some kids books, a kids ring toy thing and 3 outfits for the girls. I hate TJ Maxx, too much stuff and too shitty service. According to Dale malinda is in the 10% percentile for weight and Mya is the 3%, we have to feed these girls more I guess (even though they eat all the time now!)
Mail me!

So Malinda spent most of the weekend walking or attempting to walk about 3-4 steps then falling down or tripping over toys, pillows, Mya....

Saturday we went to Denny's and the grocery store and did some napping and playing....Sunday we went to the pool at westwood and went swimming....watched "hidalgo" (not bad) on dvd and took a walk around the block with the kids....all in all a fun weekend. Robin and jason came out Saturday night and we grilled out before she hit the dave matthews band show at Alpine.!

Today Malinda took her 1st steps at daycare. She waited till I got there and then walked to me. What a big girl!

So that stupid kid to bonked the teacher in washington had the balls to sue the school dist for failing to protect him from the teacher. Of course, he just did an interview where he is also suing the state to let him (hes now 21) see and live with this teacher. He lost his lawsuit, but what a dork! If this were a 21 year old girl who wanted to live with her sex offender male teacher oprah would be doing nothing but shows on that for weeks. what bs.

Joke set-up: “Hey, did you hear about the bad news for Lance Armstrong? French officials say he could be stripped of his 6th Tour de France title.” PUNCH LINE: “Yeah, in a random check for banned substances, three substances were found in Armstrong's hotel that are strictly banned by French authories: Toothpaste, deodorant, and soap."

Had a nice lunch with Damon-ate outside and had fish-Yum. Turns out Damon and I see about the same number of people from HS (none). Planning on getting together with him and Jen and Brooke maybe for the girls birthday? Maybe Shannon and Jason can bring Gage too (no one will push him down there!)....tomorrow I go to Jen to get a haircut, I have to leave work early..bummer
Mail me!

Having lunch at John Hawks Pub with Damon today-Yum fish fry. Last night scrubbed kitchen floor and now it is super clean-yeah! Tonight is Mechwarrior and I think its just a H2H...not sure...either way I may have to turn it over to another BM as the baby may need to go home and sleep. I then will try to organize the upstairs as it is a mess bah!
