Another Driver YELLED at me........

We went to the mini city yesterday. We had a activity near the mini city so I told DS we could go and stop at the book store. The bookstore happens to be at the mall. Here was the plan we would stop, run in and get the books he wanted and leave. I did not know the Christmas chaos had already started. The parking lot was a mad house. I kept driving around looking for a parking spot. I finally saw two cars getting ready to pull out so I was waiting for one of them. Guess what they start backing out directly towards each other. I can see one driver so I am waving my hand to stop, I am honking and honking. He finally stops and looks at me and yells WHAT!!!!!!!!!!
I can tell from his body language he is very mad at me. He looks tense his shoulders are about to touch his ears. I am still honking because the other car is still backing up. I point behind him. He starts honking and trying to go forward. At the very last second the other car finally stops. At first I wasn't sure if the other car had hit him or not. It was that close. Then he looked at me and his death grip on his steering wheel was loosened and his shoulder dropped back down and he said THANKS. He pulled forward the other car finished backing up and then he backed out and left. Don't you know I didn't get either parking space. I was waiting for the other one. Some car on the other side zipped into it. The one with the guy was to small for me. My kids thought this was the funniest thing ever. They both commented I can't believe neither one of them saw the other one. I am just glad they didn't wreck. We would still be there, with the traffic jam that would of caused. I will not be returning to the mall until June. I will be doing my shopping from the comfort of my home.

If I call and tell you about a tornado....

If I call and tell you there was just a tornado near your home, knowing you are not there.....
Just ignore me. Maybe I was watching future track and maybe it fell apart before it got there. Maybe you should wait to start calling neighbors finding out what happened. After all it hasn't happened yet. Maybe it won't even happen. Maybe I will call you back in a few minutes and tell you never mind.
Don't ask I am not telling you who I did this to. Kind of like you guys will never know who gave me their bra on the side of the highway.

Need an invitation to dinner?

I was talking to a friend and asked how her dinner party went. She said I don't know I think they were bored to death.
I said What you didn't table dance for them?
Her husband said We should of invited them for dinner.

My birthday dinner......

My birthday dinner by request…..

I never blogged about my birthday dinner and a friend asked me to. Several friends took me out to dinner for my birthday. At the table across from us I promise the couple was getting ready to clear the table. It was like watching an x-rated movie. If my kids were with me I would of nicely asked the couple to get a room. Since I was with friends we just laughed loudly about it. One of the moms at our table kept pulling up her shirt flashing everyone. I can’t believe no one else noticed. Oh yeah she was nursing a baby. It just sounds funnier to say she was flashing everyone. When I was in high school I had a friend who flashed people her boobs all the time. One time I was driving and this guy was riding his bike down the road. My friend rolled down the window, leaned out and flashed the guy. He rode right off the road. It was so funny. I guess our days of flashing people and skinny dipping are over. Now we just laugh at the people around us and make up wild stories about them. I guess when I am closer to 5o than 40 my parties... oh yeah I am going to Australia then so I will have wild party. By then 50 will be the new 20.

Update to why I was blogging at...

I just wanted to update everyone to my early morning. DH was very wrong. I was up that early and felt like I had all the time in the world. I ended up being in a rush to get out the door. I was putting my make-up on in the car after we got to where we were going. So having an extra hour did not work in my favor. It just gave me time to blog and do a load of laundry.

Why am I blogging at 5:55am?

I have great advice I wish someone would of given me before last night. When you ask some one to wake you up when they leave, make sure you know what time they are leaving first.

99 percent of the time my dh leaves for work at 6:30am. 1 percent of the time he leaves earlier. This was one of those mornings. He gets up to get in the shower and wakes me up. I am extremely tired. I am wondering why I am so tired. I am stumbling through the kitchen to let the dog out. I am trying to make my coffee maker work. I have a Senseo Coffee Pod system. I have this so I do not have to measure coffee and put it in a filter while trying to wake up. This morning I am having problems getting the pod in the little basket thingy.

I am clearly not waking up. Many mornings I wake up on my own when dh gets up. Why am I so tired today? Finally dh tells me why. Here is our conversation

DH: It's only 5:15am.
Me: It is not! I can't focus on the clock to see if he is telling the truth. I walk in the kitchen where I can see the clock. It is 5:15 am. Why on earth did you wake me up this early?
Dh: YOU TOLD ME TO! (I can not believe he actually said this)
Me:But you didn't tell me you were getting up at 5:00am.
DH: You didn't ask.
Me: Geez thanks, maybe when I told you to wake me up you could of mentioned you were getting up at 5:00am.
Dh: At least now you won't be in a mad rush to get out of here this morning.
Me: I kind of like the mad rush, it gets me moving in the morning.

So now we are all ready to go and have an hour and half to burn. I am writing this when I could be in bed sleeping. Maybe I will go put on my make up instead of doing it in 5 minutes when we get to where we are going.

An old post I never posted from May

I almost died yesterday!!!….. Really……

Ok so I have not had one post in all of May. Let me explain. It seems May in the busiest month of the year. All this time I thought it was December.

We had 4H end of year party, Girl Scout Awards, Boy Scout Camp out, Presidential Fitness Awards. I am sure I am forgetting a few things. Add to that Baseball and you are booked.

We also had a couple of really bad storms. One of those storms knocked out the tower for the Internet. We were without the Internet for over a week. I have decided I am addicted. It was a rough week but I made it through.

We also have been working over time on the garden.

Now how I almost died yesterday.

My dd wanted to go check on the garden. So we went out and pulled weeds, checked what was growing and etc. We were ready to come in and were walking up the steps when dd screamed. She put her hand out to stop me. Like a mother would do to protect her children from danger. I should of turned and run then. But instead I stepped in front of my daughter to protect her from the danger.

Well standing in front of me was a cat with a mouse hanging out of his mouth. I screamed and ran. I don’t really remember running or screaming. Next thing I know my daughter is standing next to me in the driveway asking me what’s wrong. I am still screaming. She is telling me to calm down. Then she tells me the cat is gone now. It is ok. I am still screaming. She assures me the cat is gone and the mouse is gone. We slowly walk back to the house. I get in the house and I am still screaming. She keeps telling me to calm down. By now ds is wondering what’s wrong. DD tells him. He gets me a glass of water.

I finally calm down. See if there had been a snake on the porch I would of remained calm and handled the situation. But mice and rats I can’t handle it. I have this phobia it is real. I can’t help it.
