Halloween

Powerful Women's Motto

Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning,
Satan shudders & says...
"Oh shit....she's awake!!''

For my friend....

Letting Go Doesn't Mean Giving Up, But Rather Accepting That There Are Things That Cannot Be

Laugh If You Must!

After reading Michelle's blog and seeing her "yearbook" herself, I thought I'd have a go at it. You can do it, too here.

Laundry

Who wants to help fold?

Scrapping The Music

OK...so I have no talent and have no business entering contests and stuff, but what the hell. Scrapping The Music has these weekly challenges to create themed pages to song titles and/or lyrics. This week the song is All Summer Long by Kid Rock. Here's my entry:

More Digitals

Digital Scrapbooking

Bored

It's been a little over a week since I broke my foot and I fear it's not getting any better. And... I'm going stir-crazy. The doctor said it's ok to walk, but I think I over did it yesterday. The laundry needed done and the dishes needed done and by the time the day was done, so was I. The lawn needs mowed also, but there's no way in Hell I'm taking that on. It can wait until spring :) So what did I do today? Absolutley nothing! Nothing physical, anyway. My friend needs to return home and burn me some more movies since I am "locked up" for 2 more weeks. I have been watching movies and reading everyone's blogs. Some if you have been "scrapbooking" so I decided to be creative again today and do some scrapbooking of my own. The digital kind that is. Here's what I came up with

Things I learned today

Since I'm temporarily crippled and basically can do nothing except sit or lay with my foot elevated, I'm expanding my knowledge via the internet. Today I learned how to use an image to divide my blog posts instead of that tiny dotted line. Notice the "Happy Halloween" ribbon? Cool, huh!!!

Broken Bones

Anyone who has never broken a bone, feel blessed. I should have read my last post about sitting on my ass all weekend, but no..... I had to do the dishes, do laundry, rearrange the furniture, shampoo the carpets, etc, etc. Then while putting everything back after the carpet dried, I had to go and trip on some shelving and break my foot. I have what they call a Jones fracture in the 5th metatarsal of my left foot. F*CK it hurts!!! It's one of the most difficult fractures to heal. I just got home from the ER(only took 1 1/2 hours, not bad for the ER) and filling my narcotics. Took two and hopefully they put me to sleep real soon. I've had all the excitement I can stand for the evening. Unfortunately, I will not be returning to work on Tuesday, as planned. I have been ordered to sit or lay until I see the orthopedic doc whenever I can get in. Absolutely no weight bearing activities until further notice. Breaks my heart, no my foot :)

p.s. Crutches are one of the greatest inventions ever!

Vacation

I'm officially on vacation and my ass is resting on the couch for the next 5 days. I'm not being totally lazy, however. I'm being creative! Check out my new blog header and background. Take the poll on the right and feel free to leave your comments here. Good or bad.

Amos Lee

Scroll down and pause the music player then watch these videos. This guy has awesome music!

What's in a name?

I've decided I have multiple personalities (not!) since this post and the last one are about what my name should be. Here's what the results from my test on Facebook said.

AAAR!!

My pirate name is:

Mad Anne Kidd

Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!

It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.

Gotta Love 'Em

Little bastards that they are!!!
Over the past few days, everytime I went outside to feed the cats, I'd find a pair of my socks laying in the yard. Since I usually leave the screen door open so they can come and go as they please, as well as let a little fresh air in, I thought nothing of it. That is until today. It's been cooler at night, so I've been closing the door when I leave for work. When I arrived home from work this morning, there were 16 pairs of socks spread throughout the yard. I had to laugh. After a little investigative work, I determined they(I'm blaming them all because I don't know the actual culprit)have been climbing the fence, jumping on my patio cover, up through the window and into my spare bedroom where I keep most of my clothes. I have a large tub full(well...it's empty now!) of socks and undies. They have no choice but to go back out the window because I keep the bedroom door closed. Obviously the socks have been going with them. They even left one on the roof and it's staying there because I am NOT climbing out the window. Needless to say, the window is closed now, also. Gotta love "em!

Wedding

On Friday, September 5, 2008, my only nephew Eric married Jennifer. The bride was beautiful, the groom handsome. The ceremony was perfect, the weather was perfect. The universe was in perfect harmony. We had a busy weekend with family and friends in town, so the pictures are a little delayed.

Happy Birthday Ashley
