Driving Lilly to school, I saw the coolest thing!

As I drove down the dirt road on my way to Lilly's school, some movement caught out of the corner of my eye drew attention. I glanced over and did a double take...a hawk had just taken flight, startled by my car no doubt, with a very large snake entraped in it's talons! I swear the snake had to be...

I'm on the left-over diet and...OMG, WHAT'S THAT IN MY DAUGHTERS NOSE??????

I've decided I am no longer going to serve myself food. I'll wait until everyone else is done eating, then finish off what they've left. This morning, I finished off the rest of Jerry's 10 grain hot cereal. Later, I had a bowl of Frosted Shredded Wheat and half a grapefruit. Of course, I can't stop... Sign in to see full entry.

The housecleaning power struggle continues?................................

Jerry and I had further "discussion" about the whole housecleaning issue yesterday. Then, last night, he spilled a cup of wood shavings/sawdust I had sitting on the counter to make incense. I walked into the kitchen, saw the wood shavings on the floor and asked what happened. He told me he'd spilled... Sign in to see full entry.

It's never enough for them, is it ladies?..................................

This morning I told Jerry about some of the comments on yesterday's post. He then got all bitchy on me and started telling me that I didn't even do what he wanted. I did everything on the list except for one thing and he goes on and on about things that weren't even on his list! What a shitty... Sign in to see full entry.

Should I be upset about this?..............................................

Before leaving for work, Jerry handed me a list of "chores" he wanted done today. Needless to say, I was a little upset about being told what to do in regards to housekeeping that I normally do anyway as stay-at-home mom. I didn't say anything though...I held my tongue quite admirably...but how... Sign in to see full entry.

Okay, so it never entered my mind (along with a lot of other things).......

I arose as usual this morning, got my coffee, dressed for work, threw Miranda in the shower...did a myriad of other things I normally do...and went on my merry way as if the snow changed nothing. I went out to start my car so it would get the snow softened up and told Miranda to come out with me to... Sign in to see full entry.

Once more I must say "Holy Cow Batman!!!!!"................................

Yesterday the weatherman said we had a 30% chance of rain or winter mix. This is a "I'll believe it when I see it" type situation around here. Well! I certainly believe it NOW...and I don't see no rain! I peeked outside this morning and found everything covered in about 3 or 4 inches of snow! I've... Sign in to see full entry.

Holy Cow Batman! I just won $77.00!!!!!!!

Several months ago, when I was in my desperate for cash stage, I joined an online casino. Suffice it to say, I lost $95 I didn't really have thanks to credit cards. I stopped going there but every month I receive a newsletter from them that allows me one free spin. A couple months ago, I won $5.00... Sign in to see full entry.

My daughter lost her second tooth!.........................................

Okay, so it had a little help. She's already lost a lower, front tooth quite a while ago. Now her upper front is gone. I'll have to post a pic later. She has two more teeth loose - the remaining top and bottom front are probably going to be out very soon. The only thing that worries me is that her... Sign in to see full entry.

My computer's schnitzel is cooked but I've found a way out of debt!!!!!!!!!

Literally! The CPU fan has gone out in my desktop. Have you ever smelled hot electronics? Not a good thing! Right now I have rigged my husband's heat gun (set on cool of course) to blow air into the back of my computer so that it won't over-heat while I get some things done this morning. I won't be...

My daughter has her heart set on goats?....................................

My oldest really wants a goat. I've been considering getting some anyway but she's offered to sell some of her toys to get one and I think maybe that's a good idea. If she can sell some of her toys on eBay, even if she makes very little, it can help her learn about the value of money (better than I... Sign in to see full entry.

What every blogger absolutely NEEDS to know in order to survive on Blogit!!

What? What are you looking at? Oh, the title. Yeah, wouldn't that be nice to know. Don't look at me like that! If I actually KNEW what it was that every blogger absolutely needed to know to survive on Blogit, I wouldn't be up to my ears in debt now would I? I was just pondering the phrase out loud....

Well, I've taken one step toward getting rid of my debt....................

I've applied online for a Home Equity Loan to help consolidate my credit cards and reduce my monthly payments. Jerry okay'd this and put his name on the loan to help me. My next few steps consist of Consumer Credit Counciling Service to see what, if anything, they can do for me. I tried them a few... Sign in to see full entry.

The Sh*t has hit the fan. The truth is out................................

Jerry found some of my financial paperwork which I carelessly left lying around in my office. He knows...ALL of it. I recently added up all my credit cards and, like an idiot, didn't destroy or otherwise hide the incriminating evidence. We had a huge fight yesterday when I got home from work. I took...
