Central Air - window units suck
Basement - the cave is not an option I will take my changes and drive to a neighbor's
Cable/Satellite TV - need more than public TV to watch
High Speed internet
Leather furniture - much easier to clean
Hiring movers instead of family

Who know having a bed to sleep in would be such a HUGE accomplishment?
Who knew that having a bed to sleep in would be such a HUGE accomplishment?!?
After spending the last month sleeping on the couch at my brother's and then on the couch here at the house I FINALLY got my bed set up. I can't find my curtains or my bed skirt, the bottom sheet was shredded on one end and I have no clue where the rest of the bedding/pillows are but I don't care...I have a comfy bed to sleep in!
The weather was great last weekend and I had all the windows open which was a huge plus and cut the drying time of the carpet in Hunter Boy's room in half. His bed is up and one of his dressers is in...just wish the clothes were put away.
Ladybug's room is next on the hit list. The carpet is horrid...green and gold shag from the 70s...and I would like to pull it this weekend and replace it with something neutral and easily cleaned. Once I decide what to do with it I am hoping to have it accomplished within the week so I can get her bed and dressers in.
I am tired of looking at the sea of yellow bags full of clothes in the living room and can't wait for the dressers to be in and the clothes bar hung in Hunter Boy's room so they will disappear.
What a huge task...I am so not liking the thought of moving ever again...but I am already making my "must have" list.

Puttin on my "big girl panties" and movin on
Well, life has a way of handing me lemons these days and it would be so easy to wallow but I choose to float in lemonade instead.
Farm Boy has gone silent...don't know what the fuck is up with him and I am NOT going to turn into a stalker to find out...though the thought is tempting. He was a bit pissy that I was going on vacation with the girls but my plans were made MONTHS before we got back together and if he can't handle my "me time" then fuck him!
I had a great time with the girls and the mindless nothingness of vacation was fantabulous! Getting tossed into a concrete bridge support and pinned my both my tube and the beer tube was not so fun. Many Many Many thanks to the 3 boys who untangled the tubes and returned them to me so I could get back in my tube and float to back to the group. They were asking about me...but was it me or the beer they were worried about...hmmmm not sure I want to know the answer to that one. hahahahaha

Hello...finally back on-line
Woo Hoo! I have an air card...talk about jonesing for the internet...YIKES!
Still not moved into the house...but...progress is being made. The back porch is 1/2 cleaned out and the freezer is "in place" and the new water heater is in...but not connected. *sigh* The carpet is going down Thursday.
The new job is going great. I've been eased into it and have most of the easy stuff done. The hard stuff starts tomorrow. Woo Hoo!
Will try to post a bit more...about Farm Boy later...too many kids around.

My head is spinning...what did I get myself into?
Within the past 4 days I've gotten engaged, accepted a job, and am somehow going to be moving in less that 2 weeks.
Reality set in about 9:00 last night and I had a major freak out panic attack.
Farm Boy...love him to death...can't wait to see him more...there is something to be said for cuddling in the porch swing in the rain.
Hunter Boy & Lady Bug are excited and freaked out all at the same time.
The Ex and Step-mom are freaked...I personally don't see what the big deal is. They don't see the kids during the week anyway and don't even talk to them every day. The only difference is that they won't be 15 minutes away and easily accessible.
City Girl is moving out!!! She's at her parents getting ready to have surgery (bartholin cyst - google it and you will understand 1) how gross it is and 2) why I am so happy to have her out of my house)...after recovery she will be in St. Joe with Slimeball.
I am going to have to take vacation time like it or not next week!
My head is spinning...which is okay as long as it stays attached!
Oh...and I still get to go to the river with the rest of the bitches!! Yay!!!

Loaded for bear and ready to shoot someone!
To say that I am pissed would be an understatement. I am trying very hard to keep my children, my house guest, and my co-workers alive...when I say I am not in the mood just leave me alone. Don't try to cheer me up, distract me, find out what is wrong...Just Leave Me Alone. Seriously JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!
What irritated me to the point that I am ready to kill someone?
First, there's someone at work who does not want to follow the rules, he wants to whine, argue, throw a fit, complain and then pout when he doesn't get his way...he's a great roll model for his 2-year old daughter. Because he didn't follow the rules for the email conversion he has now "misplaced" a ginormous archive file. Now the boasted that he had it saved 16 different places yet, after getting a new computer want me to "find" it for him. I am having a hard time not telling him to KMA! I am sick of all the snide remarks and shitty comments...if he would have done what was asked the file would still be on the network, not "lost" and he wouldn't have anything to complain about.
Second, there's Hunter Boy who is telling me that he has all his homework done and turned in when his teacher is telling me he hasn't turned in an assignment for 2 weeks...not since POS announced that he and the GF are getting hitched. Hmmm think it is related?? Oh...and , since I am pissed to the point of super bitch mode, he NEEDS to cuddle tonight. I am ready to kill him and he wants to flippin cuddle...seriously WTH is it with the male species...piss her off then cuddle and it will be okay.
Third there's The Dad, love him to death but don't like him much at the moment. Thinks The Mom is using her health issues as an "excuse" to be lazy and do nothing. She is in PAIN and can't hardly move and he thinks she's faking it to get out of working. WTF?!?!?! I am ready to kick his ass...Lil' Bro and I are fighting to see who is gonna get to it first.
Fourth is that lovely, kind, caring and oh so nice POS that I was married to. He yells at me if the kids don't answer their phones, as if I have control over the fact that they don't want to talk to him. They like the GF...soon to be wife. I don't get how he does not have the funds to pay 1/2 the medical expenses, activity fees, school fees, etc. but he has the funds to buy a 2 carat engagement ring for his GF. While I am happy for them and do appreciate them changing the date so they aren't getting married on my birthday, I do not want or need to be involved in the ceremony.
Fifth on my list is Town Girl...WTF are you doing?!?! You JUST told SJ Dude that you would date him exclusively, why are you back on the dating sites and planning a date with someone else tomorrow? When he busts your ass again don't come crying to me...you will get no more sympathy from me.
Sixth... I was supposed to work from 8 - 6:30 today and then go to class. Instead I worked from 8 - 8 and missed class. Not happy about this.
Okay...time to close the rant. I could go on, but Farm Boy is supposed to be calling in 10 minutes and I told Hunter Boy I would tuck him in.
Night...pray that I am not feeling this bitchy in the morning.

Watch out Farm Boy...I just may be moving home
Was told about a job in a neighboring town (back home) and looked it up in the local paper. I responded asking for the information. Didn't hear back so thought it was already filled...I was surprised to find the job description and application in my email Friday night. The job description is right up my alley and it "appears" like it would be the perfect job.
So...I've emailed my application and am waiting not so patiently to hear something back.
Asked Farm Boy what he would do if he came home and found a frog (nickname of the car) in his driveway. Said it would take some getting used to but would be a good thing.
Draw backs...my GFs are in the City...*sigh*
