Happy Halloween...
Hi there my friends. I have a sort of ghost story for you there since its Hallween..
Lets start here. We lived in a big old two story house with four bedrooms. Three were upstairs and one down stairs we used as my playroom where I didnt have all my toys in my room.. LOL.. Kids right.. Anyway one night I was about Kora's age and I was just put to bed and almost asleep. I had heard this rolling around up in the attic. Well only being about 7 or so I thought nothing of it. But it sounded like a wheel chair rolling around up there.
The next night was the same way for some reason. Until I mentioned something to my mom. She said my imagination was running away with me again.. Yaaa right... I heard something and she didnt believe me.. Well it went on most nights esp after my parents had went back down stairs to play card with friends or watch tv until they were ready for bed. But creepy being only 7 years old and hearing these noises...
I should have started with this one first but I thougth I had enough facts on the one to skip this one but I dont so here is another short ghost story..
I was about 2 years old and we were living in this house that my grandmother had. I guess my mom owned it first and sold it to my grandmother but anyway I was about 2 years old. My mom, me, my grandmother and great great grandmother and her german shepard were in the livingroom. All of a sudden I looked at my mom and asked her if she saw that man walk down the stairs..
She thought I was nuts she said nope honey.Just a figment of your imagination again for being little... Yaaa right... Ok what ever. I am not the only one that saw it. The dog saw him too... Because the dog was sniffing everywhere this strange man had walked... What was funny about it was that he walked down the stairs along the wall away from us into the kitchen. Looked like he had poured himself some coffee and walked back up stairs. He didnt bother any of us.
I have never seen him again since that day. Almost like he was checking out to see who was in his house.. Making sure we werent bothering it more less. I mean I discribed what he was wearing to my mom and she thought I had went nuts on her even back then..
I mean this dude had on jeans and a red flannel shirt and a baseball cap. I know this sounds like a good story and all to some of you but he was so transparent to me I am suprised no one else saw him but I have been told children and animals are more into the spiratual energy than adults.
Then in one of the apts before we bought our house. We had just moved in and Kora was about 2 years old also and she was running around the dinning room and I asked her what she was doing and she told me that a lady was chasing her and playing tag.. I had seen that one there. She came to our bedroom doorway one night and it was awsome.
She was lit up in blue form. You couldnt see see her but you could see her energy. It was really neat. She wasnt there to hurt us but to make sure things were ok. I have heard so many things on both ends of those.
Anyway I dont know if I will get a post up tomorrow or not since its Friday already and I didnt make rounds today. I had bills to pay and to cash my check.. But tomorrow I have been blogging for two years already... Where has time went.. I mean sometime ago I wondered what to blog about and I think we all run out of things to say.
I am so proud of my little one friends. Bri asked me to take her trainging wheels off her bike a few weeks ago and she has been pushing herself on her bike for the last two weeks. Well yesterday she asked me if I would go outside with them. I said give me a minute and I went with them.. Well I was holding on to her and letting her peddle and slowly letting go of her and she got aways ahead of me and stopped and looked at me. She asked what she was doing so far ahead of me and I said you are riding your bike and she looks at me and Said Yes I am Arent I.... Sweet.. Then she didnt want to stop riding.
She looks at me and said can we call daddy. So we called Jeff and then grandma Carol.. LOL.. That is all she cared about was calling people with her accomplishments yesterday. Then we had to stop by the neighbors house also where she could show the neighbors that watch them lately.. Anyway I need to get going. I have no idea whats for dinner and I need to find something. I go to work at nine tonight till three.. Talk to you all soon. Happy Halloween...N..

From my parents.... Funnies...
The tiniest Deer. Isnt he cute.i got this one from Jeff's sister in law and forgot to post it till now. I had a ghost story but it can wait a few days. Halloween isnt here yet... LOL.. Enjoy these photo's and the joke and the bottom. N...
This tiny deer was delivered by Caesarean section at a wildlife hospital in Great Britain after his mother was killed by a car.
Little Rupert, who is so small he can fit in an adult's
hand, was born after vets failed in their battle to save his mother.
At just six inches tall and weighing just over a pound, he is now in an incubator in the intensive care unit at Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in Buckinghamshire.
He has only recently opened his eyes.
Les Stocker, founder of Tiggywinkles, said: Rupert's mother had very severe injuries.
We brought him out and got him breathing and then he went into an incubator on oxygen. He is now being fed by a tube.
Tucked in, Rupert is in an incubator
Dear deer: Rupert pulls a striking pose for the camera
Staff are optimistic Rupert, now five days old, will make a full recovery.
Deer are very, very tricky but this one has spirit. He's extremely feisty little guy and quite pushy, Mr Stocker said.
Asleep: Rupert takes 40 winks
Whether Democrat or Republican, I think you'll get a kick out of this!
A little boy goes to his dad and asks, 'What is
Politics?'
Dad says, 'Well son, let me try to explain it this way:
I am the head of the family, so call me The President
Your mother is the administrator of the money, so we call her the Government.
We are here to take care of your needs, so we will call you the People.
The nanny, we will consider her the Working Class.
And your baby brother, we will call him the Future.
Now think about that and see if it makes sense.'
So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what his Dad has said.
Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper.
So the little boy goes to his parents' room and finds his mother asleep.
Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny.
He gives up and goes back to bed.
The next morning, the little boy say's to his father, 'Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now.'
The father says, 'Good, son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about.'
The little boy replies, 'The President is screwing the Working Class while the Government is sound asleep. The People are being ig nored and the Future is in deep shit.'

I am So Excited....
Hi there. I am excited for January to come around. Not just because my b-day is there.. But that lady I have been working with for the Pen Pals in Uganda Africa is coming to visit with us for a month... She is going to stay with us for a month and then go to other places and come back here for a few days before she goes back to Africa.
The only thing I dont know how my neighbors are going to deal with a real African person though.. They are really different. I am not prejudice. I dont care what color you are for me to be friends and invite you into my home. I opened our home up to her where she can fundraise for the kids and such..
Most of the kids in her Orphanage cant attend school this year because she didnt make the money for there supplies or there fee's they need for the kids to go to school. I wish I could help more. I still have the T-shirt and hats she sent me four months ago. I should really sell them. I keep forgetting. I was going to have a rummage sale this last summer and sell them that way and forgot about it. But now she needs the money.
I am horrible sometimes. I wasnt thinking about going back to work when I took on the job of selling these for her. I will take photo's here in a few minutes and if any of you would be interested in helping the kids would be great to get them sold wehre I can finally send her the money. Or as much as I can. Those poor kids need to go to school.
Also does anyone know anything about Power Point and if its expensive to get??? I have a CD with information about the kids for Pen Pals and the CD's in Power Point and I have no way of opening the CD.. Or is there a way of opening it with another program???
Front of T-shirt and I have Green, Blue and Red colored ones The Sizes come in Small and Medium.. I am looking at like 15-20 Dollars for the T-shirts for them...
Back of T-shirt..
Like a hot pad...Hot pad 1.00 and all other crafts a 1.00 dollar each also.
Necklaces.. Sorry if you cant see them that well. They blended in with my coffee table..
Hats. Baseball Caps more or less. Looking at 5-10 dollars for them..
If interested in helping me help the kids let me know via e-mail and I will send you my address where you can send me the money order or check with the name of the place its going ok.. She has entrusted me to do this for her and I have failed up to now. I have forgotten about them and I feel horrible. Also next week I am planning on putting up the bin full of afghans I have made already for sale for early x-mas presents. I am willing to make blankets yet but want to sell what I have made also. Talk to you all soon. I will make rounds later. Jeff should be home soon and I need to go get dressed where we can cash his check and pay some bills. N...

I loved the Fraggles. I know a blog friends Husband has the whole complete set of Fraggles on DVD and Now I want them. I miss watching them. They are so cute..
Alf also. I want I want I want.... LOL... I was watching Fraggles when my mom called me and told me that Ken's dad is in the hospital and he may not be coming out of it alive this time. He was trying to get back to his boat and he has a motorized scooter and he was going to wait for his friend but decided to try it alone and the scooter tipped on him. And he broke his hip because of it.. Gutsy old man of a grandfather I have... We dont know for sure if he will make it out of the surgery or not. He is 85 years old and they are leary operating but he cant live the rest of his life with a broken hip..
Anyway I promised photo's and I will have them up tomorrow or Thursday.. I have taken one of the puzzle box. It turned out nice suprisingly. Well I suppose. I need to be going for now. I have one more load of laundry to do and two to fold.. Talk to you all later. N..

Yayy A Date...
Jeff and I had a date yesterday. Meaning no kids... We left them with the neighbor lady and went out after he got off work yesterday. He worked till noon and then we were gone by 1:00 PM...
We went to lunch at a place called Red Robin. We both had Bacon Cheese Burgers and fries, and a side order of Mozz sticks. Then we were going to go to a movie but decided to just go wander the mall. Something we havent done in ages. Well in the process we found a great Candle store but didnt buy anything there. But then we headed to the bookstore where I found two books. Treasure of Khan by Clive Cussler and Dirk Cussler, and Hannibal Rising by Thomas Harris. They were in the bargain books and I just couldnt turn them down. Then off to the hobby store real quick where we could look at puzzles. We actually bought one. Its beautiful. Then to see about music but didnt find any. But we did find the three Lord of the Rings movies used on DVD...
Then we came home and a friend called and Jeff went and picked him up and then we had dinner and then a bonfire in the back yard. Not a big big bon fire but in a small buddha pit we have. Its kind of cute. I will take a photo of it later and post it in a few days... But we were outside from like 9:30 last night till 3 AM. We had loads of fun..
Then company left and we went to bed. the girls were up till 12:30 having fun outside eating marshmallows over the fire. We would roast them in the fire for them and they would be getting all sticky..Then our neighbors brought a friend of theres down. He is from Austrailia. I hope I spelled that right or close... He was cool. Esp listening to the accent. He was telling me all about the Kangaroo's and crocadiles.. It was cool to hear about it. I love watching stuff from there.
Anyway I need to get going and find something to eat. I have been up for an hour and still havent eaten. Talk to you all soon. N...

On a Lighter Note...
Hi there. Here are three photo's of Snowie. She is becoming a Fat Cat... LOL.. I love her all the same though. Like I told her when I took the photo's I dont have the girls to take photo's of so she is going to have to do.. LOL..
But we talked to the girls last night so here went the conversation with Daddy and Bri.
Daddy how are you.
Bri fine
Bri Daddy I want to say hi to Snowie.
DAddy what you want to talk to the cat????
Bri Yes I want to say hi.
In between I am walking around the house looking for the dang cat OK....
Well I got the cat and put her to the phone.
Bri goes hi Snowie.
Snowie licks the phone and purrs and starts meowing into the phone. Trying to figure out where her girls are. She did the same thing for Kora. She misses them terribly.
I have to admit its easier today than it was on Monday without them. Its still to quiet but I am adjusting. We were joking at work last night about what happened the other night. Thankfully the snag manager wasnt there. I wasnt really looking forward to her shit last night. But again on a lighter note photo's to look at below of course.. Have a wonderful night and I will catch you all later.
I have tomorrow off and Jeff wants to take me to a haunted house. I have never been to one. Now the girls arent here we figure it would be fun to do it.
Bri the night before they left for Grandma's house. She fell asleep on the chair and I just couldnt resist..
UPDATE.....My girls are on there way home. Bri wasnt eating for grandma so they are bringing them home. I am just the happiest mommy in Green Bay... I cant wait to see them...

Fucking Managers...
First of all Jeff and I didnt get to play racquetball last night. They were full when we went in last night and we didnt have time to wait for a room to open up at 7. I had to work last night. But we went bowling instead and only paid 16 dollars for the two of us. Not bad.. Then I had this idea of going to work and having dinner. Well we went alright but it was like 15 minutes before I had to be in. I changed clothes in the bathroom and Jeff got our food after we ordered.
Well I ran into a time crunch and I asked the manager there if I could have five more minutes to finish my dinner and she said no. She said if I didnt punch in she was going to write me up. And she is yelling this over the counter where the customers could hear her. Well with my girls not being home I am really emotional esp at work. Things went from there.I punched in but only stayed till ten when the over night manager came in. I talked to my manager and asked to come. I wasnt feeling well because of my food not settling. I know it sounds like one excuse but five minutes makes difference.
Then my manager brought cookies in and the one that was being a bitch brought the cookies up front and Robin said those arent for your crew. J said I thought N would like one before she goes home. J was trying to suck up and be nice to make up for being such a bitch before Robin got there. Because J had the whole over night crew on her ass for being such a bitch to me. Rick the cook and Robins boyfriend before I left last night gave me the biggest hug and kissed the top of my head like a father would.
I have made some pretty good co workers this job. I have no intentions of quitting and they better quit there shit on the closers end. But I will say one thing. I was whipping burgers down the line last night and they all knew to stay out of my way. I was pissed off.
While we were gone last night I told Jeff Snowie is alone maybe we should leave the tv on for her. So we did. I dont know how she reacted because Jeff never said when I came home last night. But he was suprised but he also understood that I didnt feel well. He said I looked pale but it was ok to take a break. I slept till one today and then have to go back at eight tonight. I just hope I dont have a write up slip waiting for me when I show up tonight. I will sign it only if it has what I know for facts.
On a lighter note we are doing well and I am not worrying about anything. The girls come home Saturday and we are enjoying our time together and alone time. I am half way through the girls rooms putting things away and taking away some toys they dont play with.. Its giving me time that I never thought of having.. Not yet anyway. Talk to you all sometime in the next couple of days. i am going to go finish what I started. Talk soon. N...

I Miss My Girls Already
I miss them already and they have only been gone four hours from me.. I cant stop the tears from flowing.. Just some thoughts on the subject. We have been home for an hour and all I can do is cry. We left at 8 PM from his mothers house tonight and the look Kora gave us when we pulled out the drive way.
I know they will be ok but I miss them any way. I have been the one taking care of them for the last 7 years not someone else. I have never left them for more than few hours with anyone else. this feels strange. I should be down stairs with my hubby but I hate him seeing me like this. Crying and sappy looking. I try to be brave for him also.
The dang cat even cuddled up to me wondering where the girls were. You should have seen the look on her face when we walked in the house. It was puzzlement. Well I suppose. I need to go spend sometime with my hubby. We dont get much alone time and I might as well take advantage of that. We are planning on more racquet ball tomorrow afternoon. Fun Fun in the sun for us. Hope you all have had a great weekend up to now. Sorry to sound so sad but I miss them already... Six days till they come home again but still its going to feel like a life time. Catch up with you all on Monday afternoon when I wake up..

We Had Fun Last Night.
Hi there my friends.. Jeff and I had some fun last night. We left the girls with the neighbor lady down the street and went to the YMCA together and had some fun. We played raquet ball. You should have seen us. Neither one of us knew what we were doing so we played it our way and had some fun...
Jeff was in the big brother and big sister program when he was a kid and his big brother brought him to the Y once and played raquet ball. Jeff was hitting the wall last night. It was funny. It was one of those times you wished you had a camera with you. Its not that I was afraid of the ball either it was that I wasnt quick enough yet to hit the ball. I could serve it but just couldnt hit it very often for some dang reason..
Otherwise I have the next three days off. I was suppose to work on Friday but I was asked if I would give my friday up to a co worker. I said yes but if he doesnt show up he is fired. That is what the manager that ok'd it said. She cant fire him but she can suggest.
The girls are getting ready to go to Jeff's mothers house for a week. She is depressed because his sister doesnt want anything to do with her and she wont let her own mother see the kids so we decided that she can take ours for a week. Yes his sister has finally surfaced but she has cut us all off. We think it has more to do with her lazy assed husband than it does her really wanting to cut the family off.
Anyway I need to get going. Kora has a spelling test to take yet today and then finish her work. She has been really good this week with the threat over her head that if she doesnt work she isnt going to grandma's house.. So she has been busting butt for me. Talk to you all soon. N...

Things
Hi there. How is everyone doing this fine Monday night. I have to work but have Wednesday and Thursday off. I am half asleep but doing good. The girls and I went swimming today at the YMCA. We joined up on Saturday and us girls went and used the pool today. I am looking at getting Kora in some swimming lessons. She could really use them.
I want to lose some weight and need to start walking and running today. Us girls also played basketball for a while. I was teaching Kora to granny shoot but she wouldnt listen to me or watch me. So I just ended up having them run after the ball for the most part.
I was recognized again last night for staying longer than needed because some one didnt come in again. I was being taught some breakfast. I wasnt taking orders but I was watching her as she was putting them in and she was explaining them to me.
Well need to get going and I will have more news later on tomorrow or the following day. Have a nice night and I will catch up in the next couple of days. N..

ME ME ME
Hi there. I got to go on a small shopping spree yesterday. I got my check that was a considerable size for the hours I worked last payday and then I cashed it. Got a money order for a bill that was late and then I went shopping. I am wearing black jeans to work because for some reason they wont order my two pairs of slacks I have requested or they just havent come in yet. I dont know which. so I have been wearing Jeans to work. I had one pair of black jeans so I got two more pairs yesterday. And I found some shirts on sale for 3 dollars a piece. They were on clearance and I picked up 3 of them. One bright pink, a teal color and a cream colored one.
Then we had a little extra left over on my check. What feels really nice is that my next check will go directly into the bank instead of for bills. Yayy. We can finally start saving some of my hard earned money. This last week I have lost some money but hey I made up for it last payday I think.. I have lost 3.5 hours this week so far because it wasnt busy and she sent me home early.
Life is getting better. I know most of you watched the debate last night but I just couldnt get myself to do so. There was just something about it esp after the House of Reps denied this last bill like our stimulus checks if I am right. Like I said before I am far from being political but I do have my opinions. The States are going ot fall so hard if something isnt done for us.
I mean I look and Jeff comments that if the banks dont do something everyone that owns a house is going to go bankrupt. Or the banks are going under and everyone will own there house clear and free or something to that effect ok. These are just opinions.
Well anyway that is whats going on here. I will see if I can get Jeff to take a photo of me in my new shirts as I wear them to post them for you. He likes me in the pink one the best he said.. So see you all later. I made rounds already so I will catch up with you all later. Enjoy your weekend.

Funny....
Just where some of you dont ask. NO THIS IS NOT A PHOTO OF EITHER OF MY GIRLS!!!!! Its a joke that came from my parents again today and I just couldnt help but posting..
One for the girls
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my shape to keep.
Please no wrinkles, Please no bags
And please lift my butt before it sags.
Please no age spots, Please no gray
And as for my belly, Please take it away.
Please keep me healthy, Please keep me young,
And thank you Dear Lord, For all that you've done.
Five tips for a woman....
1. It is important that a man helps you around the house and has a job.
2. It is important that a man makes you laugh.
3. It is important to find a man you can count on and doesn't lie to You.
4. It is important that a man loves you and spoils you.
5. It is important that these four men don't know each other.
Foot Note:
One saggy boob said to the other saggy boob:
'If we don't get some support soon, people will think we're nuts.'
