On with the Random....


I don't speak French I can get the gist of something by reading it but I just don't have the confidence to say it. My son? He's saying LOTS! At 10 I suspect next he'll be using all the bad words he learned.


Snow removal? ACK! the snow blower is now in the garage and the lawnmowers are moved to the baby barn. Yep it's coming I can smell it.

Is it just my boys? or are all kids forgetful? I'm struggling here to get my oldest to remember everything he needs to do in a day. I'm also struggling to get him to DO what I tell him WHEN I tell him? Why?

Should the almost 5yrold be the one making the grocerylist? he's writing down things like Relish and Peanut Butter, we dont' eat Relish, oh wait now tomatoes, of course they are all spelled "ILOVEYOU" :) oh ah he just remembered a friend of the family likes relish on her burgers. I think it's love!

Mr Curling is still smiling on his way out the door today, SCORE! for the parents.

Every printer needs a mascot right? There is a stuffed cougar sitting on my printer.


Everyone got their Halloween Costumes ready? hmmm? whatcha going as? I'm going as wait for it
OVER ENTHUSIASTIC MOM! I did it last year too, wait I'll get you pictures.... Picture this face and these words "GO KIDS! GO! You rock kids, You are the bestest kids ever!, Way better then anyone else's kids" Ready got that in your mind? ...




Complete with head tilt, did you see it? Do you think it will win me any prizes? hmmm?

ACK! Tea cup empty!


oh lastnight I made apple bread, there are no traces that I made said bread now that breakfast is over, well other then my butt! maybe I could dress as a cow?

Apple Bread (machine)
1/2 cup apple Juice
1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
3 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 TBsp butter or margerine
3TBSP Brown sugar. I think dark works best.
1/2 cup peeled cored and chopped apple
(I left out the 1/4cup raisins)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pinch nutmeg
1 1/2 tsp of yeast (quick or machine style)

I used the white or specialty setting and light crust but I could have done medium I think. It was a bit moist because my breadmaker has lost the handle on the bucket, so I have to wait for everything to cool before I can rescue it.
The boys inhaled about 4 slices each as toast with butter this morning. So again no proof I made it.

I want walking lastnight, and do you know very very quickly a lonely 30many+ woman can walk when she hears animals in the woods, in the dark and it's the week before halloween and every house has orange as their outdoor lighting, which casts some pretty ghoulish looking shadows? Yeah FAST! Butt will thank me eventually.


oh good water's boiled, time for more tea, it's warm YAY!

must buy more batteries for CD players and mp3 players, kids with earphones =quiet!

now I'm craving lime flavored tortilla chips. Not good.


Dear Butt!
It's not realestate you can't buy more space. If you need more space, squish a few muscles in there,
OK Thanks

Also SpongeBob Atlantis Pants? Addictive. "Mom can you help me I can't get past the guards"
"SURE!"
"Mom can I play now??" oops!

OK babbling off.
