Happy New Year's Eve to you all.......
Do you know what I'd like to see more of in 2005? Self respect. After watching a few Springer & Maury shows and hearing the woes from some friends in toxic relationships, we seriously need to practice some self respect. By no means I am a prude, but when you are dragging up to 10 men on national t.v. to see if he is "your babie's daddy" you look like a fucking whore. You don't want to be dragged on these shows? Then wrap your fucking dick in a condom! You don't want that baby? Practice birth control AND make sure you use a condom. Want to know a 100% way of not getting pregnant or an STD? Keep your fucking legs closed and keep your dick in your pants. Why stay with a cheater? These dumb ass broads wail "but I LOOOOVE him!" What the fuck is there to love? They ARE NOT GOING TO CHANGE. Why should they? You have proven that no matter how much they LIE to you, STEAL from you & your friends and fuck everything in sight you will stay with them. Sure there will be a "honeymoon" period or some major "break through", but you know what? It's more of their patholical LIES. They WILL go back to their old ways as soon as they feel they have thier hooks in you deeper and your self esteem in shredds. WAKE UP! Your love WILL NOT CHANGE THEM!!!!

Well I like the part about Virgins..........
You are a double espresso at three AM. You are the tortured, nail-biting essence of coffee. You see visions. You could change the world if only you were up at the same time as everyone else. You have created a programming language that throws errors if the code is not written in iambic pentameter, and you are infuriated by the typos in the new edition of Ulysses. You practice sarcasm as a form of tantric sex, and your cats have doctorates. You believe in virgin sacrifice in a good cause. What kind of coffee are you? brought to you by Quizilla

I was feeling blue as I took down my holiday decorations. I will miss my tree, it smells so good and looks so pretty. Every decoration on my tree has a wonderful memory. In the middle of all this, I get a phone call. It is from the mother of one of the marines we had over for Thanksgiving. She was calling to say thank you for the photos we sent her and to let us know that Josh was home for the holidays. The first thing he did was ask to see the photos and he kept his favorites. He told her that was the best day of his life. That snapped me out of my sad funk. It was such an honor to have him join us for dinner. I called Steve, mom and Aunt Selma to tell them of my wonderful morning phone call. Poor Aunt Selma was so sick.
Hopefully in the next day or so, there will be changes to this blog lay out. I found a few skins and sent them over to Lili, she found one too. And in true Libra fashion, I can't choose which I like better, so I'll let her choose for me. I kind of like the darker one better, but the "angel" has horns. It's bad enough that people automatically assume I worship the devil because I'm a witch. Hell, I don't even BELIEVE in the devil let alone worship it.

You know what is bugging me right now? People critizing our government saying it is not giving enough to the victims of the tsumami. What the hell are YOU doing to help out? Have you given to the Red Cross? What have YOU done to help out your own people here in this country? Have you given blood lately? Have you donated food or clothes to a shelter? Have you written a service member who is defending YOUR country and missing home? Don't give me the weak ass exscuse that you can't afford it or have the time. I work TWO jobs AND I'm raising a disabled child. Quit your snivleing, get up off your ass and do something for a change...........

Had an impromtu get together with the girls last night. Had a great time playing crazy 8's. Met Dru's new beau, he did not run from the house screaming in fear. That is a good sign. At one point Lili offered up her fine ass for me to spank. I smacked it good only once before she whimped out on me. Her husband C came out and she whined to him that I spanked her too hard........C looks at me, looks at his wife and said "you know better than to mess with her, you got what you deserve!".
Tonight Dru & Beau stop by, ordered up some food from where I work. Dragged pudd'n around shopping for bed linens for his bed today. Just need a dust ruffle and he's all set. He was such a good boy shopping.

My husband is too cute..........
As I have mentioned in a previous post, I three times a week I get a service member's name to give a little extra mail to. Some times they request little goodies to help them out. Last week I got a girl who wanted Little Debbie snack cakes and peeps. While out grocery shopping, Steve looks for the snack isle and starts picking out goodies. He grabs a box of chocolate fudge brownies, "for when she has PMS". I got a good giggle over that. When ever I get extra bitchier than normal, he goes and checks the calender. Offers to buy me chocolate bars soon follow, along with "do you have enough whiskey? Can't you just stick an I.V. of it?" Got some light yard work done before the rain hits. I also got a 1/2 hr on the tread mill and the bathroom is now fit for use. I'm going to have to get cleaned up and take my mom out shopping. Pudd'n is staying the night at her house, so time for some hot monkey love. Go me!

Had a great day. Took Pudd'n to Chuck E. Cheese for breakfast, we then did some light shopping and then took Pudd'n to the park so he could ride his new bike he got for Christmas. We also went on a little nature walk, the hawks & falcons were out looking for some lunch. Later this afternoon we'll take carrots to the horses to get out for a bit. We are expecting 3 days of rain this week. Glad I got in all my riding last week. If it is not raining to hard, I may even go riding any way.
Down loaded some more photos to my yahoo web page.

Got this from a wonderful soul sister in Texas......
Women In My Circle TO THE WONDERFUL WOMEN IN MY CIRCLE When I was little, I used to believe in the concept of one best friend, and then I started to become a woman. And then I found out that if you allow your heart to open up, God would show you the best in many friends. One friend's best is needed when you're going through things with your children. Another friend's best is needed when you're going through things with your momma. Another when you want to shop, share, heal, hurt, joke, or just be. One friend will say let's pray together, another let's cry together, another let's fight together, another let's walk away together. One friend will meet your spiritual need, another your shoe fetish, another your love for movies, another will be with you in your season of confusion, another will be your clarifier, another the wind beneath your wings. But whatever their assignment in your life, on whatever the occasion, on whatever the day, or wherever you need them to meet you with their gym shoes on and hair pulled back or to hold you back from making a complete fool of yourself... those are your friends. It may all be wrapped up in one woman, but for many it's wrapped up in several... one from 7th grade, several from high school, several from the college years, a couple from old jobs, several from church, on some days your mother, on others your sisters, and on some days it's the one that you needed just for that day or week that you needed someone with a fresh perspective, or the one who didn't know all your baggage, or the one who would just listen without judging... those are good best friends. I thank my girlfriends, those who honor intimacy, those who hold trust, and those who hold me up when life is just too heavy! The special bond we share is unique. Thanks for the words we've shared. The prayers we've sent up. The laughs, the tears, the phone calls, the emails, the shopping, the movies, the lunches, the dinners, the talking, talking, talking and the listening, listening, listening.... So whether you've been there 20 minutes or 20 years, I love you! Pass this on to the women that God has placed in your life to make a difference - I did.

Merry Christmas to you all.
Had a nice day, we went to my in laws house for some awesome food. Amazingly, I did not burst in to flames. Father V. was there. He actually married us and baptized pudd'n many moons ago. Back when I tried to be the "good little catholic wife". Yeah, try not to choke over that one. Luckily that did not last long and I went back to my wild pagan ways. I could not stomach that holier than thou shit. Work sucked last night. We were no where near as busy as slappy said we were going to be. It was his last night, come Monday I have to go talk to the new owners. I hope they don't stick me in some stupid ass uniform.

Went out on trail today, Kirby & the dogs loved it. 10 years ago today I buried my beloved Grandfather. I miss him so much, I miss both of my grandparents a lot. They had the biggest role in my up bringing.
Pudd'n is at Grandma land, he's a happy little camper. Last night he tripped and fell, biting his lip. Blood was everywhere and it did not stop for 20 minutes. I was trying not to panic, he did not want to have pressure applied to his lip to stop the bleeding. Thank Goddess he did not need stiches. I don't think I could get drunk enough to handle going through those. One of Steve's contractors gave him gift certificate to a local diner. So it looks like we get dinner out tonight! Yeahhhhhhhh! I have finally heard back from one of the soldiers I have written to. For the past 3 months I've gotten 3 names a week of soldiers requesting mail. I've sent little goodie boxes for those who have asked for things. This is the first guy I've heard back from. He wants to keep in contact, which is great. Luckily he is not in Iraq, I've lost a pen pal who was stationed over there. The winds are kicking up and I can see all this dog hair blowing about. Lovely! Goat Puppy shedds worse than Jack, I never thought that was possible. I hope the winds die down by tomorrow, I don't want the horses extra fruity when I ride them.

I'm getting spoiled horseback riding every day. The horses are so fuzzy and smell so good (only a person who truly loves them can say that). The dogs are enjoying running around eating the horse poop. That part I don't care for. Now to shower up and take Pudd'n to Chuck E. Cheese for breakfast.

Had a great weekend. The Barn party was a blast as usual. Babs came down to watch Pudd'n for us. When we got home they were snuggled up on the couch. Pudd'n lounging back with his head between Bab's boobies and a shit eating grin on his face.
Got to go riding this morning. I just got Kirby out, he's more active on Mondays. Tomorrow I'll get both boys out. Had family Christmas yesterday, food was awesome and it was fun watching the kids open presents.

Work sucked big purple donkey dicks tonight. I was home by 8pm.
Other than that, my day was fantastic. I was suppose to go on a field trip with pudd'ns class. But since they now have 2 students that have horrible tantrums, they did not have the man power to try and subject the public to these kids. Instead they had a pizza party in the class room and watched videos all day. Since I had already taken the day off, I got what was left of my holiday shopping done and then I got my ass on a horse. I got home in enough time to fuck the daylights out of my husband and then join him for lunch with one of his contractors. They were having a holiday party and not only did they have awesome Mexican food, they had BEER! Tomorrow Babs comes over to babysit pudd'n while we go to a holiday party. Babs and I have our own "after party" planned. Muh ha ha ha hahaaaaaaaa

Just left my dealer's house.......Gail was having a sale on her candles & shuctffffffff. Got some great deals on things. All those candles......*shivering with delight*.
Then we went to C.C. for a nacho & dessert fix. Pudd'n is at grandma land, so all is relaxed in our world. Had a great time last night with the girls. I am going to have to kick Lili's ass if she posts THAT photo of me. Or should I say, that photo of my Ta Ta's. Got the presents dropped off at the military base. Had to make sure I didn't run off the road drooling at the men jogging. Then there was the group of guys that were dressed for some sort of manuver. All those men and so little time! LOL.

Yes.........life in my house. The dogs are running around, barking , "fighting" and being a nusance. Pudd'n is stemming in the back room. Steve asleep on the couch (or trying to with all the noise the dogs are making) and me at my computer. Drink in hand. I'm getting good at making these cosmopolitans! Waiting for the girls to come over. My house is clean and dinner is ready. Trying not to drink all of the vodka before Lili gets here..........
Spaz called, I should be getting my tickets for Cancun this week. I can't believe I'm going. All the booze and Mexican food to my heart's content! Life is good.........

Trying to get back into the holiday spirit. 8 more of our soldiers dead, I believe all of them are from my local camp Pendleton. 8 more families are going to have a fucked Christmas. I mailed off the cookies I made to one troop. A letter and some trivia cards to another soldier.
Perfecting my Cosmopolitans for tomorrow night. Lili said she needed "girlfriend time", so what better drink to serve than the girlie drink Cosmopolitan?? I need girlfriend time too, it was so nice my last trip. Having Lissie all to myself and hooking up with Spaz all weekend. Getting some more cookies baked. This batch is for Pudd'ns teachers. What is left will probably go to my students.

Added more photos to my Yahoo profile in "friends & schtuff". These are pics from my reunion and drunken debauchary with Spaz & Lissie. Our favorite place was "The Wab" in Ferndale. They had the best martinis & nachos. The bartender gave us the code for the juke box so we could play all the songs we wanted for free.
Baked some cookies for our soldiers. I hope they make to the destination in once piece. Looking forward to Wed., girlfriend time!

What a nice day we had. It was beautiful, sunny and in the 70's today. So we headed down to Aunt Selma's. Goat puppy was whineing and moaning when he realized exactly where we were going. The water was freezing cold, but Pudd'n did not mind. I sat in the sand, watching him play. A glass of wine in one hand and a wet, smelly goat puppy with his head in my lap. All was perfect in my world. I made the mistake of agreeing to work tonight, that was the only black spot in my day. We came home after 4 hrs in the sun. I wanted to hang up some Christmas lights, but steve ordered me in the shower and then to take a nap. I'm glad I listened to him for a change. I passed out cold! Steve locked the bedroom door so I could get a real nap in. Not my usual light nap with pudd'n bouncing off my head. My game plan was to take a nap, get my nails done and go to work. Steve's game plan was let me sleep until the last possible minute and then get ready for work. Babs ended up over our place, the barking dogs woke me up. My first thought in my sleep filled head was "cool, babs is here. time to party". Then reality hit, ah fuck! I have to work! And needless to say, work sucked. Five tables, was NOT worth my time!
Well now it is time to curl up with my pudd'n. At least I made it home in time for that.

Well, my voice is back, but my head feels like it is going to split in two. No, I am not hung over either. For as bad as I feel, I wish I was. Then I'd have a reason to feel this crappy.
Aunt Selma & Italian Grandma offered to chip in for my military family. I'm excited, this means I can buy them more. I've already gotten the little boy a book, cuddly stuffed dog and two shirts. The father just wanted cook ware, so I went to Kohl's and got a nice set. Nothing fancy, but nothing that will fall apart after first use. I'll be inviting them to Yule dinner too. Italian grandma is an AWESOME cook! I hope they can come. I know that nothing will replace thier own family, but if we can help make the holidays easier, that would be great. I keep thinking of the mother, stationed in Iraq. Now I know men go off all the time and have to leave families. But in my opinion, I think it it harder for women. We are more emotional than men. Hell, I was a basket case after being away from Pudd'n for a week. I can't imagine being in another country for months at a time with out him. He is my life and my soul.

My Christmas cards are out and my tree is up. I got a nice 7ft Douglas fir. What was funny was, as I was taking the tree out to the van. Some kind man thought little 'ol me needed help. I grinned at him as I tossed the tree in to the back of the van. I thanked him for the thought. I got my military family today. The mother is stationed in Iraq, the husband is here with thier 2 year old son. So I'll just be buying for the father & son. I've got 95% of my shopping done.
I'm tired!

My throat is on fire and I have lost my voice. Aunt Flo is arriving too. Oh fun, Oh joy...............
On a happier note, I am "adopting" a military family for the holidays. I'm calling back the Pendleton YMCA today to let them know that "yes, I'll be happy to". I will probably get a wife & one child from a deployed service member. I wish I could get a bigger family, but $$$$ does not allow this. We are trying to get Pudd'n to sleep in his own bed. Italian Grandma bought him a nice full size bed. Last night the little stinker stayed up 2 1/2 hrs past bed time refusing to fall asleep. I finally caved and let him come in our bed, I was fucking tired and sick to boot. I think I'll try again over Yule holiday. At least I know we won't have to get up early.

ROTTEN FUCKING DOG............
And no, for once I am not talking about the Goat Puppy. It appears that Jack's back is healed enough now that he can reach the kitchen counters again! I made a whole chicken today for dinner. Steve took it off the bone and put it in a dish. He went out to get pudd'n some dinner. When he got back, the dish with the chicken was on the kitchen floor and Jack's belly was looking pretty full. Bastard!

What a nice time we had last night. We went to Steve's company holiday party. It was held at a sports bar at the Spectrum center. The food was great, seating SUCKED. There was no seating! We were able to score seats at the bar for appitizers, but lost them when we found out there was actual dinner to be had. We thought the appitizers WAS dinner. Once we saw the line for the buffet, we just left. It was way too long and since we no longer had seats.........
It was still a good time non the less. Betty was there, she's my horse trainer friend. It was her husband that set Steve and I up on our blind date 15 years ago. We talked "horsie" stuff. On New Year's day, Gail is having a "celebration" of Gil's life. Betty wants to get a small group of riders and pony Gil's horse riderless on the ride. His boots will hang backwards in the stirrups. We will go through his neighborhood. Steve and I think that is a good and touching idea. Gail offered her home for the annual "barn party" too. It will be so weird with out Gil there. I think I'll be wearing waterproof mascara to those two events. Ugh, is it REALLY time for me to go to work???

Coming back to reality SUCKS!!!
Shortly I am going to have to put on the war paint for work. Going back to work at the school has been great. The kids are a riot! I just got done packaging up some photos to send to the Marine's families. Aunt Selma was kind enough to let me use her camera. She developed the film, got triplicates and I sent copies off to each of the boy's families. That should be a nice suprize for them. Well I guess I'll go shove some dinner in my face and get my ass in gear......

Where the hell do I begin? I guess I'll start with Thanksgiving and the little Marines. It took 2 hrs to get them, as I pulled up, I could see that they were fresh out of boot camp. Babies, they all looked like babies to me. Kind of killed the fantasy, the slut in me took a back seat and the mommy in me came out. The boys could not get to the van fast enough, hell, ALL of them could not get off that base fast enough. I brought them home and proceeded to get ready. We let them use our phone to call home. One boy was from Texas, the other from Sacramento. One of the boy's moms wanted to talk to me, she was so thankful that her son was spending the holiday with a family (granted, we ARE the Aadams family, but a family non the less). I told her "from one mom to another, I'll take care of your baby for you". The boys cleaned their plates and asked for 2nds. They had been living off of "meals in a pouch" for several weeks. They looked so handsome in their dress uniform. We brought several lint rollers to try and combat the dog hair. We then walked around Laguna for a little bit. They spied some blond beauties and I asked if they wanted me to get their picture with them. Of course they said yes. I took my boots off, walked up to the girls and said "my cousins are here on leave, may they have a photo with you?". They agreed and the boys had BIG smiles on their faces. Then the girls wanted photos taken with the cameras they had. Turns out they were German tourists, dancers......... heh heh heh. I left "the kids" to chat and exchange numbers while I joined steve up on the board walk. We then went to Aunt Selma's for further relaxation & fun. Steve brough some swim trunks and the boys used them. They grabbed boogie boards and Goat Puppy went with them. It was so nice to see them have a good time and be kids for a few hours. I was sad to take them back. A lot of the soliders were given little gifts from various families. Everyone looked happy.
Michigan: Holy shit, what a GOOD time we had! I kept my promise to Lissie and kept her drunk the entire time. We spent Friday night hanging with the 'rents and we polished off 2 bottles of wine and half a bottle of rum. My parents had their own stuff to drink. We crashed downstairs in the basement. Giggling like school girls. Sat we went up to the mall to do some shopping and then I drove her around to show her how much everything has changed. Spaz came down to hang out while we got ready. I bought another bottle of wine, we drank that and finished the rum. We got ready and my dad drove us to "the prom". It is hard to look graceful getting in & out of a disel truck in high heels. We immidetly ran into a friend that was part of our little group in highschool. The party was a lot of fun. The food was good and the booze was free. I got to know the bartender REAAAAAAAAAL well. Sunday we spent visiting other friends & family. We ended up at Spaz's house for more debauchary. We did some bar hopping and then ended up at a sex toy shop. Lissie did not have a vibrator and we wanted to make sure she got a good one. Spent our last day at Evil Auntie's house. She had dinner and more wine waiting for us. Getting out of Mich. was not as easy. There was techical difficulties for my plane, it did not leave on time and I missed my connecting flight. They were able to find me a straight through flight, but I had to wait 3 1/2 fucking hours for it!!!!! Oh, and I would not get my luggage either until today. Fuckers. So I sat in the bar, drank and read my book. I was pretty fried by the time I got off of the plane. Steve, being the good husband he is, had a bag of ice, diet cokes and some whiskey waiting in the car. He knew I'd be a big ball of bitchieness, so he wanted to liqour me up soon as possible. There are so many funny moments that happened on my trip. I'm sure I'll remember them more when I get my photos developed. One such funny memory is when Lissie, Spaz and I walked out to Spaz's car. She brought us an extra blanket to sleep with. Well, the dork forgot her keys in the house and went running back up the drive way to get them. Now mind you, she's got 4 inch stilletos on and she's had a few to drink. Lissie takes one look at spaz running and yells "Run Forrest Run!". I thought I was going to piss my pants. Well, I need to unpack and do a shit load of laundry. The fun never ends! |
