April 13 HelloHELLO HELLO HELLO
LONG TIME, NO SPACING I was doing some research and thought I would take a break to stop by and put something up here—not that I really have anything very exciting to contribute but……..
Hmmmm……where to start….
I have a new job. I guess it is the job that I always wanted. However, I never thought that it would work out this way, nor would I have ever wanted it to. *sighs*
Brandon is now 16. I am ok with the having a 16 year old part of it….its just the only 2 years away from being an adult part that is bothering me. Good grief.
Riker….oh, Riker. We have spent the day at the doctor’s office. It would seem that after 8 hours @ $303.00 an hour my son has now been diagnosed with Autism and ADHD—on top of also having epilepsy. *sighs* I am torn between being very upset that he will forever have to deal with these disorders and being pleased that there is a reason that he acts the way he does. I shouldn’t say pleased but….you have to know him to know what I mean. *sighs*
April is National Autism Awareness Month
I am becoming aware and I would like to stick a foot up the asses of those who have told me for years that it was just him being a kid, or being bratty, or seeking attention, or whatever other excuse they could think of at the time. On the bright side, Talon is just Talon. Life is smooth sailing for him. Knock on wood.
Anyway, I should get back to my research. I wish I could get around to your spaces….I need to find a few more hours in a day.
Missing you… Me January 24 .Hello …. Since I can not bring myself to delete this space (I will be back….someday) I thought I might just take a moment away from doing taxes and put something up here. I have to start with a great big THANK YOU to those who still stop by and say hello. I am very sorry that I have not had any of my usual nothingness for you to read or been around to return comments but my computer still lies in its coma. Between my procrastinating ass and my rotten little bastard of a nephews excuses I am beginning to think that it will never be revived. Maybe I will have to break down and actually pay someone to fix whatever it is that I broke. I cannot even begin to briefly describe the events that have happened to me since last post so I will just leave this….lucky you… I kept the Saturn when I bought my Impala. Why….hmmmmm…cause it isn’t worth anything but still looks and runs good enough to drive. It does not get driven often but sometimes I use it since driving it saves miles on the Impala and it gets much better gas mileage. It has been months since it was last used but I thought nothing of bringing it out the other day. It never even occurred to me that we would not make the trip to my sister’s house alone. Yes, halfway through the trip a freaking mouse crawled out of the heat vent and onto the dash. It ran around for a bit before deciding to return to its “home.” I swear if the boys would not have been with me I would have bailed right then. DISGUSTING! I will never drive the Saturn again! I best get back to taxes. May you have a wonderful mouse free day… Jillian
P.S. Missing you.… It is either this stupid computer or stupid MSN but I can’t get in to say hi so here is your “hey you.” You know the rest. *SMILES*
December 07 Christmas TagA Christmas Tag To: Me From: Michy 1. What's on your wish list of gifts you want really bad this year, Top 3 to 5? Hmmmmmmmm........I don’t know...I never get asked this. There are a few things I would really like but I think I will keep them to myself. *smiles*2. What do you think the meaning of Christmas is? Forgiveness, Family, Life, and Love.... 3. Naughty or Nice?I am usually nice or at least try to be...though I might have a bit of a naughty side in me somewhere. 4. To believe or Not to believe in Santa? It is a must! 5. Do you plan to travel somewhere for Christmas? No travels unless I can count the 12 miles to my sisters house. 6. Do you leave out milk and cookies? No. I never did it as a child and I didn’t do it with the boys. 7. What your favorite Christmas song? I do not have a favorite Christmas song. 8. Are you dreaming of a white Christmas?Yes...though my want of snow is not so great now that I have made my first trip north in it. 9. Do you go see Santa with the kids?We have not been to see Santa since Talon was 2. When Talon was asked what he wanted he so very excitedly screamed out "rainbow cocks." You could’ve heard a pin drop in the very busy mall. Leave it to my speech challenged toddler to ask for socks. 10. Do you have your kids write to Santa? No. 11. Favorite reindeer? Rudolph..of course. 12. Worse thing about Christmas?How very mean and rotten the people in the stores get. YIKES. RELAX....it’s Christmas. 13. Do you give to charities this time of the year? The boys usually choose gifts for names on the giving tree and I try to give something to every bell ringer we pass.14. When I say Santa - you say? Jolly! 15. When I say Rudolph - you say? Let’s watch it! 16. When I say Frosty – you say? Melted! 17. When I say Jack Frost - you say? Will you scrape my windows, please? 18. When I say Mrs. Clause - you say?

When I say Christmas tree - you say? Get the cat out of the fricking tree! 22. Do you put up a tree? Yes...this year I have two. One in the living room and one in my bedroom. My feel better kitty makes sure I have to re-decorate them daily. GRRRRR23. Do you decorate your house or your yard? I have the stuff to do it with but it never gets done. 24. What's your favorite Christmas drink? I don’t think I have a Christmas drink. 25. Favorite or ideal Christmas dinner? It will always be late! There will always be a fight!

The boys and I. 30 Have you finished your Christmas shopping? No. OH MY NO. 31. You go Christmas shopping the day after Thanksgiving? NO! Standing in line while freezing my ass off, surrounded by rude people pushing and shoving for a $5 DVD player does not sound like fun to me.32. Do you hang stockings? No. 33.

*SIGHS*
Due to a tragic accident my computer has died or at least fell into a deep coma.
Thank you for all the advice on the Joe/Shona entry.
Special thanks to Jesse for the cookie....I love it...Thanks for thinking of me.
Till I return....have a wonderful day--
November 28
Joe is Homer And I need some advice
I tried to tell him that he can not give Shona a bowling ball for a gift because he wanted one.
my problem…
Joe has asked me to help plan a VERY large surprise 30th birthday party for Shona. Large as in rent a hall and whole deal! I am all for planning parties on someone else’s dime but….
SHE IS GOING TO HATE THIS
1st…she has yet to admit she is over 25 2nd …she likes large groups of people even less than I do 3rd…the party will be for him
I have known her for the entire 30 years…he has not… I know these things…he does not… However, he is the one that has to live with her... I can just go home...so...
Do I clue her in on it so she can put a stop to it or do I plan away and just let her be pissed at me for the next 30 years? |
