As if I don't have enough crap to deal with...Looks like now I've got an ear infection. Lovely.
Photos of finished stuff and fun stuff later.Right now, I need spam. Having four runny noses (well, maybe 3.5, hubby hasn't been sitting next to a Kleenex box as much as the rest of us) in the house this weekend, I'm on…
Barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen. That's my MO apparently. Was mostly in the kitchen from about 5pm to not long ago (well, besides the occasional sitting down and eating dinner and such). Is it any wonder I want a…
I'm sick.Little guy's sicker.Lots of snow. More to come.Addressing holiday cards that came today in the mail.
Oh baby!I totally need to win this...E's got a fantastic giveaway of a free year of Netflix and a year's worth of Orville Redenbacher's Natural popcorn! Hubby's a bit of a popcorn snob - he much prefers the Redenbacher …
I'm still in my pajamas. Hubby and I took turns taking naps today. It's been nice. And my house is still a mess, so obviously I didn't have to worry about cleaning for company. I've had Eggs Benedict more than I prob…
Frugality at one of it's finest hours.This is all from an $8.57 ham butt. Which has/will become...1 dinner of Eggs Benedict, plus a baggie (the bottom, darker one because they were fried up) of leftover ham for all the…
Many hours today. Yum. Finally used up a canister of sprinkles. Just look at the date. Yeah. Hubby came to the marriage with that one - in 1984/85 I didn't live near a Safeway (that I remember - we just had Raley's …
Laundry mountain is at a standstill. The water district is over-chlorinating the water. They found some bug or something (I'd bet my money that someone has a septic tank they haven't taken care of and it's leaching int…
Meet my newest friend. Raspberry's good, peach is okay. It's better for me than pop, and doesn't taste like "just" water. No high fructose corn syrup or anything, either.
Snow snow snow. 4yo's been outside to play an awful lot the last few days. Can't complain since it seems to wear him out.I've decided my Christmas present to myself will be getting the laundry monster tamed. I have pi…
It's almost 5:00pm. It's completely dark out. You could see the stars if there wasn't any cloud cover.And my 4yo is outside playing in the snow in the backyard. Apparently I bundle him up nice and warm, because he's n…
Oh my God. My dad is officially annoying me to the Nth degree.You may remember, a while back after his not-so-fabulous prognosis of Stage 3 cancer in his brain, I asked if he'd write down some memories of stuff so after…
Okay, yeah, I'm late to the party on this one.King 5 news - Disaster declaration in western Washington.I have family that lived/lives in Lewis County. And has for many many years. I've visited too many times to count. …
While doing some returning of things that we don't need/don't fit/whatever reason, lookie what I found!For almost half off what you can find it for online! Holy crap. I almost never find deals like this.
Total cute. The outfit laid out so you can actually see the colors/patterns. Yes, that's light blue long johns to wear under the skirt. Bonus - they match the wrap. Attack of the blurry pictures! Yeah, you try taking…
Okay, sorry, very crappy photos. But. I need a little help.First off, aren't the skirts cute? $5/each. Fabric costs more than that. The bottom's even got a cute ruffly thing going on (but not in an obnoxious way!).Se…
The cider hubby pressed today. Some has already been drunk and given away, the rest in the freezer. Now hubby's all impressed that Granny Smith apples keep for a long time (yes, especially if you keep them cold honey!…
I really could do without the barfy feeling. Blech. I'm ready to be done. The snow we got over a period of like 2, maybe 3 days. I forget. It's all gone though. A few little bumps where burms used to be, but that's …
Well, most of the snow's pretty much gone now. 24 hours of Seattle-like rain took care of that. There's a reason I *don't* live in Seattle - I'm not that big a fan of the gray rain.I finished two pieces of bread (yes, …
I think I figured out why hubby's apple pie crust hasn't turned out how I kept expecting (I've used the same recipe before). He was using room temperature butter (instead of *cold* butter). No clue whether he was usi…
Lots of snow. Lots and lots of snow.Now *this* is shaping up to be a real winter.Versus the last few years where poor hubby only shoveled the driveway like 3-4 times total. I think today is the third time he's shoveled…
