What in the World was I thinkin?

I had this great stupid idea when I first got Scrappy and Lady that they could sleep on the bed with me.

It was all well and good until it got cold. Then they slept IN the bed with me.

Ok, so it's just 2 little dogs. No biggie, right?

Then Lady got sick and ended up with 2 more to help Scrappy though when Lady had to move on.

I got stairs for the new "kids" on the block so they could get on the bed.

I got rid of the stairs when Baxter kept bringing in leaves and sticks on the bed while I was at work.
(Does this sound familiar?)

Now the four legged kid family has grown to 5 (or 6 if you count Winnie). Scrappers, Crystal, Baxter, Harlie and Jack.

Two of which are NOT little dogs.

Crystal sleeps on the other pillow.

Scraps sleeps next to my shoulder behind me or ON MY pillow, which he gets bumped off of when I realize it but as soon as I turn over he is back.

Baxter sleeps either on the floor or under the covers growlin and snappin at everyone.

Jackson sleeps at my knees, in or out of the covers,

Harlie sleeps at my feet on top of the covers or under the covers butt to butt with Jackson.

And somewhere in the queen size bed is me.

Winding my way through the stinking dogs.

What in the world was I thinkin"?

The bat mobile

While visiting JD a couple of weeks ago, I saw a car that made me laugh soo hard I forgot to grab the phone to take a picture.


Picture this car:


painted that light baby blue

with a stencil of this on the front door:

No yellow. Just the black bat. No circle just the bat. 
Very bad stencil to boot. Smudged edges.  

I laughed so hard that I almost sat through a green light. 
I almost turned around right then and there so I could get a picture to share but JD was hungry...And you know how hungry boys are.......vicious......HAHAHAHAHA

Have a laughin good Tuesday! 

Cheers!

Mini Donuts

Last weekend, the grands came to stay the night. 

I just love it. 

They make my heart sing!

I try to do something fun when they come. 

This time it was this: 

A mini donut maker!

Use a cake mix and you have cake donuts that look like this:



Powdered sugared or plain. They like the sugar ones and I like the plain. 

Funfetti donuts!!

These are the ones that eat them: 

My very own personal donut eaters!! 

Lights of my life!

Have great weekend!

New Painting

New Painting


Actually it is two paintings. 

And it is SOLD!

Have a few touch ups but for the most part it is done. 

And yes it is two canvases. 

I have never in my life sold a painting. 

Or a drawing.

Just recently I have sold 4 bags

It feels weird to sell something I create. 

But I think I will feel weird with my hand out, palm up. 

Thank ya very much!

I get Brownie Points!!

Michael had a doctor appointment yesterday.

It is all good. Nothing new. Which is what we knew but it was still good to hear.

He lets me go in with him to see the doctor. Which I appreciate.

I usually open my mouth.

I opened it and words begun to fall out.

I thought-WTH?? SHUT UP.

So the nurse asked what I said.

I replied: nothing.

No. Really, nothing.

And went back to reading the kindle book.

Doc came in and chatted with Michael.

I stayed quiet until the doc asked if he ate a lot.

I shook my head.

Doc looked at me and said Mom is shaking her head, why is that?

I said He FORGETS to eat.

Doc: FORGETS?? I never forget to eat!~

Me: Yeah, me neither. (As is VERY evident when you see me!)

And I once again shut my mouth.

So I get at least ONE brownie point??

Told him on the way home, I was gonna drop him off and I was going shopping next time.

He's well enough I don't need to know what is going on.

Michael can tell me.

Shoppin' here I come!!

YEE HAA!!

Welp, I am unfit

Because I have a DUI in my past I am unfit to mentor to children.

Also because the school chose to turn me in to Department of Human Services because of a bruise on Laynee's leg because of 4 licks she got because she lied to me. I am unfit to mentor children.

But I am still in the running for Secretary/Treasurer at school.

Ironically, I am dropping all my classes this semester. And the funny part is that if I would finish these 3 classes I would have my associates degree.

But I have a teacher who will not work with me, will not answer my emails, and will not let me make up a test I  missed while Michael was in the hospital. All quizzes are 100% of the grade.

 I have a 3.7 average. I am not going to mess it up because the teacher is a jackass jerk. I will start over. He is supposed to be a great teacher in person. So we shall see what happens next semester.

Maybe I will take art classes instead.

I am too tired. I am worn out. I can't sleep. I'm about to explode at any given moment. I want a vacation.

Even work sucks.

The life and times of Jackson, in pictures

These all happened in no less than 10 minutes.

Honest. 

Jack staring out in to the back yard.

He did this for about five minutes.

I didn't know he could sit still this long.

Then all of a sudden out he goes!

Faster than a speedin bullet, and jumped all dogs in a single bound,

to get to this:


(ignore the screen lines, the back yard is NOT plowed)

This is what Jack sees. . .

(I see nuthin. . .)

 He comes barrelin back in with this. . .

A stick. . .

It must have moved in the dead grass. . .

A walkin dead stick. . .

He started to look out the window again but

decided to pant instead

Oh, aren't I cute?

Huh? Huh?


I know you put alllll this pillows up here just for me. . .

You wuvs me . . .


Cuz I's cute and I wuvs you too. . .

lots. . .

(Really he just found the breeze from the fan in the background.)

Hugs from all of us to all of you!
