Today I Got Drunk

Today is Monday a slow day in the neighbourhood. Well you would think that now would you. I mean who gets drunk on a Monday. Well it wasn't me but I did feel weird not having a beer in my hand today. It was a drunkfest next door and on the day I thought would be a great day to call in sick. It was the worst, first I had to run some resumes off for my cousin who is trying to find a summer job so I dropped my daughter off at the babysitters for a little while so I could get them done and clean the...

Are You Guilty Of This?

Because I am. Did you name your children after your first boyfriend/girlfriend. I have (the boyfriend part) I have for my son. The guy I named him after was never my first love but I wished he was.We never dated or kissed but we were always hanging out and playing sports together. He moved away when we entered high school and I've missed him ever since. My daughter is probably named after my husband's first girlfriend. Not he tried that but I stopped him right away. I didn't meet him till high... Sign in to see full entry.

Does Posting Through The Week Pay Off?

Does posting through the week pay off for you? It does not for me. I get more readers on the weekend than I do during the week. Which sucks because my good posts come through the week(At least I think so), my weekend is pretty busy compared to the weekdays. I know the week is busy so less people go on line but not me I am mostly on through the week, that is the only time I can go on. I have a couple regular readers but the only way I know this is if they leave a comment behind like Whacky,... Sign in to see full entry.

New Guy On The Block

A new guy is staying with the people next door that I had a fight with over my only parking spot that they took. If you remember reading that it was one of my earlier posts. Well the new guy showed up Uncle Dave they call him and I met him outside while walking Toby our Rottweiler puppy. He was pulling weeds and picking up all the junk that the neighbours threw outside like their beer cans, pop bottles, a shirt that got puked on that they just threw outside their door rather than the garbage...

Why So Many Evil Looks????? I Was Not Prepared For This.

"Ok, lets take Toby for a walk." I tell my kids. It was the day after we finally named our Rottweiler puppy and today would be his first big walk up town. The kids are excited to finally get a chance at walking him instead of the boring walk around the block. Now we get to walk him three blocks but before we go we have to be prepared. I have a five year old and a almost two year old so I need to be prepared for anything. And I mean anything like the one time my son fell on the pavement and... Sign in to see full entry.

WoW

I just checked my earnings and I've made a lot of money. I wonder what I can buy with seven dollars and eleven cents. My son is learning money values in school which is great. I hope they teach him parents can't buy them everything because they don't have any money. Plus everything is so expensive even if I want to buy that latest toy I won't be able to. My daughter's birthday is on Sunday and guess what, we have no money. Maybe I can ask Blogit for a loan and that I can repay them with my... Sign in to see full entry.

Well Bloggers The Results Are In

Thank you bloggers for all your comments but the hat predicted none of the names suggested. Thank God, first I will tell you who suggested the names. My son suggested General, My husband suggested Jake, I suggested Spike, and my daughter suggested Toby, The owners before us had him named Gold. Can you guess what name was drawn well I drew first and we got the name Gold but I crumpled up the paper and tossed it towards the garbage and my son grabbed another. I read it quickly and announced the... Sign in to see full entry.

What's In A Name

We can't decide on a name for our new puppy. There are five names (one from the original owner which he doesn't come to anyways) one from each of us, my husband, me, my son and even my daughter. She just learned our neighbour's son name and can't stop saying it. But we are undecided until tonight when we put them all in a hat and draw a name from it. But first I would like to know from the writers and readers of Blogit to see what name they would choose out of the five and if you choose right... Sign in to see full entry.

Has anyone got a tan yet.

I've been out most of the day in the mid thirties and have nothing. No redness, no burn all white still. My son who I covered twice in sunscreen, he has a tan. Me white, I hate being white all summer long. People tell me to get out in the sun, get out of the house. What they don't understand is I'm out in the sun everyday most of the day till night. I even tried going out at the hottest point if the day which is around lunch and still nothing.I felt the heat but my skin is still the same. I bet... Sign in to see full entry.

Well He Brought Home A Puppy

My wonderful husband brought home a ROTTWEILER puppy. You should see the paws on this thing they are massive. The puppy is soooo cute so I am not mad he even went pee on the floor and I didn't get mad I just made my husband clean it up. My daughter won't leave it alone an d this morning I decided to leave it at home instead of taking it to the bus stop with us because it is a hot day (in the thirtys already) plus the puppy was sleeping. Well when I got back with my daughter the puppy was outside... Sign in to see full entry.

He Took My Daughter

He took her for a car ride and told my son and I he was bringing a surprise back. Big surprise when we went to the pantry to get out breakfast we saw the bag of puppy food. Great I guess I better start picking up toys and everything else a little puppy can eat. I like dogs but other peoples dogs and puppies. Great I wonder why he wouldn't tell me he was getting it today maybe because I would freak out and I wouldn't be able to if it was already in the house with my kids attached to it. I hate...

What A Wonderful Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My dad finally got a loan from the bank and an ok to buy his house back from my stupid brother. I'm feeling much better now it was very stressful. I hate money it is evil to me, but without it we wouldn't have anything. Anyways it's a great day I got off work didn't have to stay late for once.

My Dad is Upset

My dad came over yesterday(holiday for Canada) to visit the kids and spend the day with us so when I had to show him the pictures of the house up for sale he was furious. He called him up and shouted at him for a couple minutes until my brother hung up. You see my dad gave my brother the house after he lost his and claimed bankruptcy and had no job, instead of just renting the place to him like I told my dad to, he gave him the house and moved into a rented house. Now my brother is trying to... Sign in to see full entry.

My Brother Is Dead

My dad is going to kill him if I don't get to him first. You see my husband and I are looking for a house and a new one is up on the market and it's my childhood home, the one my dad gave to my brother. He is selling it and I don't think my dad knows this and that was one thing my brother promised not to do. Plus in my dad's will the house goes to me, well I guess not anymore. The house is a crap, three bedroom unfinished basement that floods when it rains, two garages. The only thing I loved... Sign in to see full entry.
