Yumm Pot Roast!

Because of the fact that our stove has been defunct and not workig for the last month meals here have consisted of whatever I could microwave or cook on the breakfast grill thing (I don’t know the propername for it). So as I was walking through the grocery store it dawned on me that wow I have a crock-pot so why don’t I use it? Well then I bought all of the stuff to make it and I just got it on to cook, the family will finally have it first real meal in about a month! Just hope it turns out good!

Whats going to work?

TEAMWORK!!! ok and now I scream. As much as I love my 4 year old son and want him to watch show that he finds entertaining, as an adult I am confused about how they find such shows enjoyable. He is currently watching ‘Wonder Pets’ and that show is out there, with the off key songs and stuff. Oh well they are kinda cute anyway and Hal does enjoy it alot so I guess I can continue to put the dvd. And before anyone thinks that I use the TV as a babysitter, just know that this kids attention span is nada and he watches for like 5 mins and is then playing and comes back and forth to it. So the TV could never be used as a babysitter in this house. Wow I just came off as totally defensive there sorry about that!

Blood and Chocolate

I just watched this movie on dvd about a loup-garou (also known as a werewolf) and a human who fall in love. The movie is basically about them trying to get away from her family and the fact that she is supposed to be chosen by the leader of the pack to become his mate, she didn’t want to be with him anyway. But that all changes when Vivan (the loup-garou) meets Aiden and everything sort of goes crazy for both of them trying to get away from her family, which thankfully of course they get away or it would not be a movie. I actually enjoyed this movie even though it was not as good as I thought that it would be. Oh well if you are bored one night it is worth a view so check it out.

Bills yuck!

I just realized that I had never posted before about bills. And I am just curious who else just cannot stand to pay bills? I just got finished getting this weeks bills out and boy do they drive me crazy! Ah well I guess you need them so that you can live day to day. I am thinking though that I should become more organized so that I can get everything done easier and with less hassle for me!

Happy Birthday Wes

Today is my oldest sons birthday, however we did have his party yesterday and he had such a fun time. He got lots of cool presents that he loved and his daddys Aunt Susan and her husband brought a jumpy blowup house thingy and they had such fun in it. I have lots of pictures and I will post some of them when I get them off of the camera tonight.

Harry Potter

I am so sitting here asking myself why I didn’t get on the band wagon earlier. Well I will admit it now for you I should have. I have watched all of the movies that came out and not read any of the books even though I had wanted to, just never had the time. Well Jason and I made a really late run to Wal-Mart Friday night since the kids were at grandmas and on whim he asked me if I wanted it. I said sure and we picked it up. And I can’t quit reading it. It is really good and I am really enjoying and now I know I am totally going backwards I am going to go back and get the others and read those now too.

Going cross-eyed here….

I am working on designing a theme for a site that I am working on and I am about to a little kooky looking at all of the code and stuff involved and styles and so on and so on. But I do realize that after I do get a couple of them under my belt that it will get much easier to work on, or I know I will just it make more and more complicated by trying to add different stuff lol. So please send me some good thoughts that I can come up with something cool and all that good stuff!

Mommy why do we have a belly button?

Just when I was afraid that I didn’t have anything to write about today my almost 6 year old provides some inspiration. He came to me asking why he had one and that led all they way to babies coming from mommies tummies(hey the mommy and daddy thing isn’t any of his business yet). But it made me giggle because when I was pregnant with his younger brother when he was about 16-18 months old, we would ask him where the baby was and he would lift up his shirt and show us his tummy telling us that was where the baby was. I just hope I didn’t leave him confused because he is a smart kid and he seemed to understand what I said, and I told him that if he had anymore questions to ask and I will try to answer them for him and if I can’t I will look them up for him.

Some People!

I don’t know if it has been obvious from some of my blog entries but I work in a call center. Well I take inbound calls actually I do credit card applications for a pretty big banking institution. Well anyway I get a call today and I did the greeting “Thank you for calling —— —–, My name is Sharon. I will be your application manager today. How are you doing today?
and Mr Pervert, yes he must be a perv says “Do you want to F#@$ me?”
So I just say “EXCUSE ME?” and he pretty much hangs up.

I just can’t believe people still do stuff like that especially since there is caller id, and yes in call centers we can most of the time see exactly what number people are calling from. Next time something happens like that I am just going to start naming off their phone number. That will be funny and maybe shock them into not doing that anymore.

Please hold for the next available agent….

Don’t you ever just want to scream whenever you hear those words? Well sometimes anyway, I am sitting on hold for the phone company right now waiting to inquire about their cellphone service, but I guess everyone else in the area is as well. Hopefully they will have the kind of service that I am looking for so that I can get a phone for both my husband and myself. One for him because he works so late and one for me because well I just want want want one. Wow I sound greedy but hey I could use one too I drive pretty far to the kids school and the school may need to get ahold of me when I am not at home about one of the boys.

So maybe someone will pick up sooooooon
