a song for Stinkydog

"Poorhouse" by the Boxmasters

Okay, I nearly fell OFF the eliptical when I saw this video come on GAC (yes I listen to rap while watching country music videos). I turned off my i-pod because it caught my eye. I think Lee needs to put it on her playlist. I personally love Billy Bob. He's quite funny if you ask me, in a sick way. I looked on youtube and couldn't find it. Good luck!

It's ready!

We are open. And ready for guests toting the coolest of cold beverages to lounge at the poolside!! Give me 10 minutes warning in case I need to whip something yummy to eat or just get dressed! Ha! :)

Happy Birthday Paul

Happy Birthday to my nephew! The only child I know who can survive taking apart outlets and swallowing whole bottles of iron tablets as a toddler. If you can survive that then Fayetteville won't touch you! Ha!

almost

This isn't quite the site of my backyard yet. BUT we have lifted the cover and are in the process of cleaning. I'm hoping by this weekend were in!! Woohoo, let summer begin!

Saturday mornings

Despite being sick this week Casey wasn't about to miss making me breakfast again today. She's quite good at it. Scrambled eggs and a piece of toast. Yummy. If I knew she was good with turning on the stove I might sleep in and let her bring it to me. Instead, I'm usually wide eyed by 7 a.m. at any little noise I hear not knowing if it's her beating us downstairs. The best part, she loves to do the dishes.

Picture Day

The kids were supposed to get their pictures made by this photographer today. Not going to happen. It was supposed to be outside. The gray clouds lerking have made me change their appt to another day closer to June. Besides, I want Connor's hair a tidbit longer. Hehehe.

Babydaddy

I am convinced this is the Babydaddy to the pups that I've been posting pictures of. Yesterday the kids and I went to check on the puppies and this is what we found. Shorty inside the fence with Delta all barking like he was defending his family. Now, Delta is quite a bit taller than he is BUT anything is possible. And also, doesn't his markings look familiar to Lil' Joe? He has no collar and is actually pretty cute. He looks to be a mixture of Daschund and some sort of short haired terrier. Connor named Babydaddy 'Bear' because he's little, but his attitude is as big as a bear.

Same puppies, new names

Aren't they cute? Since I wasn't there everyday to force my names on them the shop guys have made up their own. The girl (solid black) is Lil' Sis, the one with the white underbelly is Lil' Joe, and the short haired brown one is Haus (sp?). Lil' Joe started out the smallest boy and has turned into twice the size of Haus. The little girl looks like Momma when the guys found her. They were four weeks old yesterday. Anyone want a puppy?

Haircut

Okay, obviously I'm fed up with shit from school. Today Connor comes home with a request from his teacher to have his hair cut by tomorrow (Friday). WTF??? He just had it cut two weeks ago. I had her leave it longer on purpose. He gets his pictures made next week and I like this little shaggy look he's got goin' on!! I mean, who cares? We have two weeks left of school. There's some kid in his class that you can't even see his eyes! This is Connor this afternoon. Isn't he just cute?

Check yes or no

Did you know notes like this get you sent to the principals office? Guess who. Yeah, Casey passed this note to a friend. Okay, it was ugly. They actual note said 'do you think Brianna is a spoiled brat?' Her friend circled yes, and then Brianna got a hold of it and took it to the teacher. The only one sent to the principals office? Casey. I mean, who gives a SHIT? Honestly, this Brianna is a spoiled brat. She antagonizes Casey constantly when I'm up there at lunch or recess. She will ask what we're doing for the weekend and then she'll go on for 30 minutes about what she's doing that's so much better (in her opinion and words). I know without a doubt she's looking for attention in all the wrong places but of course Casey just gets jealous. What do you do? So poor Casey was sent to the office again over something so freakin' stupid!! Do you agree, yes or no?

Sunday afternoon

This picture says it all. What did you do today?
