Tasha, this is for you!

ok, I KNOW I have been neglecting my blog.....shame on me, I blame it on my addiction to Facebook!! Who has time to blog after reading everyones updates and making comments and checking out new photos, etc etc...... plus I have farmville to harvest and zoo world to tend to....and all the other stuff that pops up like super farkle and sending flowers and gifts....you get the idea! So Tasha, thank you for bringing it to my attention that my blog was being so rudely ignored (and yes being it is February the Christmas background had to go!!) so I apologize to my many ( 4?? 5??) blog readers out there! I should be beaten with a wet noodle and sent to bed without dessert tonight.

I have actually thinking about just saying goodbye to the whole blogging thing......apparently I'm not that good at it!! LOL!!

Anyway, it's been awhile since I posted anything, the holidays were wonderful (even though it is still rough with out Mom) and my birthday (on Jan 18th) was great! I have some amazing people in my life that I am so grateful for!! Thanks to Jody P., Sherri and Tina for my "Mini surprise party" even though I didnt realize it was for me at first....heehee :-) The cake was yummy and there's still a balloon floating around the house. January was sooo busy!!! I (whom hardly EVER goes out) had 3 girls nights in January!! The first for my b-day ( which was a total blast, I hadn't laughed so hard or drank so much in a long long time!!!("it's best just to let her finish" seems to be our new saying) , the 2nd for Mae's get together where board games totally rock and watermelon wine is actually not bad!! Then 3rd over to Sherri's for a Just For Women party......which what can I say about that?? Seen lots of interesting things and tried on lots of smell good stuff that had pheromones in it that supposedly attract your mate (woohoo) but honestly does it actually work???.....it apparently worked on my cat because that night he wouldn't leave me alone! He kept biting me and trying to lay on my head and had his paws in my hair and I woke up once to him trying to hump my arm!! GEESH!!! Not the kinda action one hopes for , getting violated by your cat. That is also the night I came home to find him wearing a purse though, so really, I guess my cat just has some issues at the moment. Not something you see on Animal Planet now is it???

Onto other breaking news (beep beep beep beep)

Megan has a birthday coming up!!! On the 16th my little girl will be 12!!! TWELVE!!!!!! I can't believe it!! Still doing awesome in school, hangin with a new posse as she calls it, and getting ready for Jr Districts in her swimming.She's done really well this season, very proud of her. She has shot up to about 5'5, almost as tall as me! She's taller than a few family members which she giggles about (like Aunt Angie) but I wont mention any names.... :-} She's starting to notice boys are "cute" but doesn't have a BF (cause really, what's the point in that?) and ( most of the boys at school just aren't smart enough) and my favorite, ( I don't know anything about being a girlfriend! I'm just a kid for pete's sake!) So for now Scott and I are safe! :-) Just the way we like it.....we plan on scaring all the boys away anyway...heehee. Speaking of Scott, he's doing fine, working alot and bringing home the bacon! ( Literally, we got a whole pig and a cow too!) I'm still trying to stay sane driving and monitoring all these kids around M-F. So all in all things are peachy.

I had to go have an ultrasound today, I may have gallstones (eww) so see what the Doc says about that next week. If I do have stones I hope they are either diamonds or garnets!! hardy har har! Oh c'mon I may write this garbage but YOU read it!! :-)

So in case it's awhile before I post again, Happy Valentine's Day, St Patrick's Day and Easter!!

Lots of love to you all, keep in touch and don't judge me for my facebook addiction.....
