This is me...

Ranting, and writings and thoughts, and ideas, and the controlled randomness that is me...

Tuesday July 26th, 2011 & Wednesday July 27th, 2011

Again, no blog today, yesterday...went to work, My Grrrl took me out to lunch! Awesome. We got some stuff for her FB boyfriends baby. That was nice. Had to go meet with my boss, then went home and spend some quality time together... Then more shopping, sheets and snacks! We tried to watch Rango, but I crashed, then so did she. Maybe we'll try earlier tonight?!

On my way to work right now. Need to actually get some stuff done today! It feels like I haven't gotten anything done, but I have been working my butt off, all but lunch yesterday!

Crappy weekend that has a good end

Don't wanna go into details...Friday night, our so called friend decided to say some shit to try and end my marriage. I am ashamed to say that I did not believe My Grrrl right away...I have been burned so many times in my past, not an excuse but an explanation.

I threw a fit, finally got to tell that witch that I never wanted her, that felt good. My Grrrl seems to finally completely understand how much I hated the whole situation...and we cut all ties with her. ALL TIES ARE CUT! We will have NOTHING to do with her.

My Grrrl and I are now in a titanium bubble. No interlopers.

On another note...Thursday my little girl turns 18. Feels like a big deal, but less than others might think. She is already so grown up, most of the time!
We are getting a hotel room next weekend, and she and her friends are getting two and that is her party. I have a bad feeling that it is not going to go the way she wants. I know how she is, like me...big plans, big let down... :(

It is barely 7:00, The Other Guys is on, and I am awake, WHY? My head hurts, gonna jump in the shower, take some exedrine and maybe play some Sims? My plan for the time My Grrrl was over was so play the Sims all the time! Lol, that didn't happen, lots of interruptions. I sewed too, I cleaned up, and am still working on, cleaning the garage, AKA my sewing suite, lol!
I made a messenger bag, the front is to big, not sure how else to describe it...I have to super fill it so it doesn't fall to far in front... I don't wanna fill it so full, to heavy? First attempt, not to bad. Both of the girls want it! Cant give it to either, i only have one...that would cause bad things! I think that I have Xmas gift ideas for each of them now! Lol.

I guess I better get on the Yule prep! No notebooks this year, iPad awesomeness this year! Lol

Gonna jump in the shower now, head hurts like crazy, up way to early, didn't get tonged until late... But My Grrrl comes home today so I am to excited to sleep!!! <3

More on Yule ideas, in already have ideas! Just have to organize!

Thursday July 21st, 2011

Went to work way early. SO TIRED! It is not even 8, and I am in bed already!

I was able to make 14 toilet paper tube "firelogs" at work, woohoo, have the supplies to do more, not a bad use of my lunch half hour. Made big ones tonight, lots, until my back hurt so much I had to stop. I finished off two small bags of shredding, and almost all of the big bag. Lots of supplies I can use at work, so yeah for that.

Got the kitchen cleaned, went out to get myself a snack, well dinner, actually. And here I am. I was able to get the steps to get my work email on my iPad. Not sure if that was a good idea or not, we shall see in the long run. I can, of course, turn it off. Might do that on weekends. Defiantly on vacations!

Today is craft day. There are, as always, lots of things I want to do, to start, etc. But I am so tired right now I can't even think. I have yarn and a hook in my bag, I might crochet a little while I am at Cara's appointment tomorrow.

I hope they actually get something done about her wrist tomorrow. This has been a long time coming...

I got bad news today, My Grrrl is coming home a day later than expected. I miss her so bad... Ugh.

Good news though, the NFL lockout is over is so I hear...

That is all for now, so tired, I can't keep my eyes open!

Night all!

Night all, I miss My Grrrl... :(

Tuesday July 19th, 2011

Well, today is re-purpose or die day...
Yesterday I put the bird seed that comes in a bag into the plastic container that the first kind we got came in. So,  re purposed that.


I worked on cleaning the garage, to re purpose it into my sewing room... This weekend at the library I got a book that is supposed to make it easy to learn crochet... I know some stuff, always want to know how to do more! Then I can re purpose all of that yarn into stuff!! I have TONS of projects going. I want to finish My Grrrls blanket, but it is to hot to take it out, since it is so big! Maybe I will just work on it as it gets colder, and we can cuddle under it as I work! LOL!


I am listening to Pandora. I am hearing a song that I heard done by Reba first, now Beyonce is doing it. Is that a re purposing? LOL! If it is, I didn't do it, so...


Tonight, it is just me and the man child, I do believe. The girls both have plans until after 7:00. So, I will leave work a bit early, we will go home, he and I, and maybe I will set up the station in the garage to make the newspaper fire logs. That is a re purpose!


I really miss My Grrrl. We talked on FaceTime last night, that was nice, I can't wait to do it again! She has the best smile when she is smiling at me!


Well, I guess that is it then. Back to the grindstone as it were!


I just had a brain storm... I wonder... Small fire logs, assembled here on my lunch hour, of course, wet and dried at home? Interesting... Hmmm.... ponder ponder ponder...
