Friday

Wednesday... the fun begins
I ran off with Laurie in her car, I forgot that I had locked the back door, until later... had lunch at Olive Garden, went to home depot to buy potting soil and flowers to put on Rascal's grave. My ferret that passed away last wed. Then Laurie gets a call from her son... he doesn't leave a message and neither of us heard the phone ring. So she freaks, just like I do! And we drive by the school while she is calling him on his cell phone, he is 14. He doesn't answer his cell or the home phone, and he is not at school. So here's the thought running through her brain, He better not have started walking home and gotten hit by a car, I'll kill him! (My sentiments exactly!) Finally we are almost at my house when he finally answers the home phone. I was upstairs playing games. Meanwhile.... Thomas had gotten home to find my car home, all the doors locked and no one answering the door!! When we drove up, he pointed at me, looking very relieved that I was there and said, I thought you had passed out, died in the house or something you scared me half to death!!! Next time leave a note!!!

Then he let me know something was wrong with Chelsea our pekingese, she stays in the backyard with the other dogs. So I checked on her and took her to the vet the same day. They kept her overnight and scheduled her for surgery Thurs. am. She had a tumor on her belly about the size of a grapefruit! I was amazed, it could grow so quickly! So she had surgery Thurs and is fine exept for having tested positive for heartworms. Bummer I wished they had told me before the surgery. My husband didn't want to spend the 250.o0 for the surgery much less spend it if she was gonna pass away anyhow... But anyway she looks happy to be in the house and she has to stay inside for at least 10 days. Which makes hubby grouchy.

Friday
Me and my friend Laurie went out errand running this morning. To the Bank, Olive Garden...because of a double charge item, and Office Depot and then Wally World for some grocery shopping. We then went back to my house and she put her stuff in her car and I put my stuff in my house and we said goodbye for the day. My feet were very tired and we both have some allergies trying to overtake us.

After she left... the fun began!

1. Looked at phone to see if anyone called the house, ahhhhh Tommy called ...wonder why, so I called him. He's sitting in line at school to pick up Thomas. He called his dad's #. Of course, the school called the house 3 times but I was gone. They have my number... blink blink! Thomas did not realize the school has my cell # written down, but now he does. ....Tommy called my cell at 2:16 ok, I was either still at Wally World or had my purse inside the house and was unpacking groceries.

2. Tommy smashed his middle finger REAL good with the hammer at work around 9 am. I said, you should have gone to the doctor, he thinks so too, but no one else on job knows what they are doing so he has to be there to supervise and tell everyone else what to do.

3. Met Tommy at Lobrados restaurant near Oak Run to pick up Thomas so Tommy can go back to work.

4. Thomas took some sinus meds that were in the car... so started feeling better so went back to Wally World to get a no trespassing sign. Found 1! So got it. Saw a shelf for 26.00 4shelves. So got it too for the laundry room. Thomas helped put it in cart and we left.

5. Went to put the sticks I got for the back of the sign on it.... thought it was going pretty good, then I flipped it over and said oh sh*** ...then said, Thomas your mom is getting really tired. Sign was upside down ....lol how funny looking back on that.
So I decided to nail the sign to the tree. That worked. Then found rope in tree in front yard, started pulling on it cause it was stuck in a crevice ... fire ants came running onto the rope very quickly. Are you laughing at me??!! Obviously I let go of the rope. And then went to shed to try and find another rope, Thomas helped me look. No such luck there so went back to first rope. Finished yanking it out of tree. Layed it on the ground and shook it a little, to let the ants find there way to the grass. So tied rope to the two sticks I bought for sign, (that didn't work out for me) and stretched it out as far as it would go as a block for the cars that were parking in our grass and under our trees, I guess for the shade. Since they have no trees in their yard. But it was getting ridiculous, 1st one car, then two and yesterday there were 3 big vehicles in our grass under our trees. I think adults should automatically know better. But I guess not. So Tommy said, that fence is going up this weekend! Well, I surely hope so. We've been wanting that fence up for over 2 years now.

I tried to start supper and my feet were screaming at me!! So I decided to give up on that and get Kentucky Fried Chicken. So I called Tommy and let him know my plans. He said to meet him in the Wally World parking lot and write out payroll so he can take his employee home. So I did. And then got chicken went home. blah blah blah

And this was just my afternoon.....

I hope your afternoon was very uneventful.

Huggies (lol)

Here's a set of papers I made quite a while ago, I decided to make them a paper set and give them away as a sample. Click on the picture. Send your friends to my site for their free sample. Enjoy.

Sept. 10, 2007 Time sure flies. I just finished making a template, my first ever. I needed a way to make my own color swatches, so I made a template to help me out. Uploading now to 4shared.com. Color Swatch template

Have started buying decorations for the party! I just hope I don't live to regret it! I have had parties before and they were more work than I anticipated. Won't that be fun! Now if I can just get my family on board with helping me... seems like an impossible task? Maybe so. I don't know. But I plan on putting all the little pets on the back porch for the event several days in advance. Let's see, I have one ferret now, one passed away this past week. I have one chameleon lizard, one love-bird, one cockatiel , and one sugar-glider. And I have to put the 'devil-dog' somewhere in the back bedrooms, maybe... My son calls Pebbles the devil-dog but others call BamBam the devil-dog... he will not stop barking at people. Guess I could use a dog whisperer. LOL
