Happy Birthday to me!!

Well my birthday was Thursday! It was a pretty good day. I gotta cake that was my highest priority. You know me, rarely have I met a cake I didn't like. Presents were good! I love presents. Friday night was Kenny Chesney! And OH MY GOD... I love me some Kenny Chesney. The concert was fabulous. Miranda Lambert opened for him and she did a pretty good job. No voice on Saturday, but hey who needs a voice. Dallas won today and that was fabulous! Love me some Cowboys winning! Must go back to work tomorrow! Which is not anything I want to do.

Counting down the days until the Diva, Stephanie and little blondie and me escape to Disney World! Girls Road trip and all! October 23rd... is worth looking forward too!

what would it take to make a man clean up

Ok I love Kevin. I truly do, BUT he drives me crazy. What would it take to have him pick up his own crap? I mean why are his shoes in the middle of my kitchen? Why does he leave his glass on the coffee table? Why does he leave his clothes outside of the linen closet, when the basket is inside the closet? Does he think these think miraculously take care of themselves? I think he does. I really do. So we are having a contest that he does not know about. I am not washing any of his socks until he puts them in the basket. At this point it has been 1 week that I have not washed any. I want to see if he will go in search of them or just think that they all disappeared.

The Diva's Plans

The other morning the Diva and I were driving to the sitters house and I asked her what she wanted to do when the weekend got here. You could tell she was giving it some thought then she replied. "Well I am not sure I have all these other plans. Let me think on it."

I look at her and say "what other plans?"

"Oh you don't know Mom, I have lots of plans. Let's see, well the end of June I am going to the movies to see Transformers and then July will get here and I will celebrate my half birthday (I started that a long time ago, her half b-day is July 4th and we always have a cook out. Well we called it her half b-day when she was 2 and it stuck... great idea huh... NOT!) then Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince comes out. Next is August and you promised me that you and Daddy would take me to do something before school starts back. Then in September we are going to see Kenny Chesney is Tallahassee. In October we are going to Disney World to trick or treat with Stitch and I want to be an East High cheerleader for Halloween (High School Musical). After that it will be November and Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows comes out along with Edward (insert dreamy sigh... not sure if it is for Edward or Harry as she loves them both, although not as much as she loves Troy Bolton- Zac Efron) in New Moon. Then its December and we have Christmas and move on to January and it will be my birthday. Now in February there is not much going on other than Valentines Day, but you always get me a prize so its not a complete waste. Then its March and Spring Break and we will go back to Disney World. Yeah I don't have much time to do anything but we might can squeeze going somewhere and doing something in there. Let me get back to you."

At this point I have nothing to say. Because well what's left? I mean she has plans from now till March and she is ONLY 7. I think I need to buy her a Palm Pilot or at the very least a day planner to keep up with all of it. FCOL... where does she come up with this?

Glutton for punishment or just reality??

This month has been so crazy busy. I have planned to blog about this and blog about that, but I just have not had enough time. I go back to work on Monday after being off for 10 days and I know that it will be hard to get back in the groove of things.

The Diva and I have had a pretty good break and Christmas was great. I have spent that last 2 days telling her to turn her music down. I have to wonder about my sanity in the choice of having Santa bring her a huge stereo. My only thought was that maybe I would not have to listen to High School Musical any more in the car. Maybe I did not think that one all the way through you know. Beyond that life is pretty sweet right now.

I am now in the middle of plans for her birthday party. She is having a High School Musical Makeover Dance Party. Yes I am a glutton for punishment. 14 little girls for 4 hours, they are going to have their hair and nails done all while singing along with High School Musical. My dog is going to have heart failure when all these people show up. He is not exactly what you call a people dog. There went my sanity.

Rude People

I know that rude people are just RUDE! I know that everyone can not be nice. I mean I have been known to not be the sweetest person, but I try to be mostly considerate ya know. So I was at Publix today and I bought my bag of chocolate and I am trying to leave. I go to my car, get in and look behind me. Well there is this person rolling their cart up their car. Ok I can wait no problem. Ok she opens all the doors on her car and proceeds to load about $250 worth of groceries into her trunk. I have no idea why she had to have her doors open to do this. Well what can I do, other than tear the doors off her BMW, which I will admit I thought about. Finally I she finishes and I am still waiting cause really where can I go, she is completely in my way. On my way to FINALLY back up she gives me this look and throws her hands up. Ok at this point I am ill with her and think I should go pop her one but I back up and go to work anyway.
So I know this is the Season to be kind and considerate and I know that you should really be kind and considerate all year, BUT when is it my turn to be rude??? Dang it I want a turn too. Everybody else gets one, I WANT MINE!
So in this season to be sweet lets say a prayer for the rude person and the person that did not kill them for being rude!

Meet Presley


This is the newest member of my family. His name is Presley. I have never had an inside dog before, so this is a new experience for me. We should have named him Kelli's Shadow, because that is what he is! He is driving me nuts, but I love HIM! Bless the Diva's heart she wanted a inside dog so we got her one. Well he has turned into my dog. LOL!

Here is how you combat that Thanksgiving weight


So... Jan and I were being fools and were in the Wal Mart on Saturday... well we went looking for a box for her to send to her kids and had a little time to kill before she went home to watch the Alabama Auburn game at 2:30. Well we get to the check out line and we look at it 2:05. Plenty of time, she lives about 3 miles away so it was not a big deal that we hurry. The lady in front of us has 4 things, they are all produce. Well apparently they were not ringing up correctly and she is having a cow over the onion and the bell pepper. She thinks that they are cheaper than what they rang up. I looked up and the cashier is GONE! Well apparently she has went to the produce section to check it out. Ok just so you know I would have given her a dollar to just go the HELL on. In the end I think she saved right at 50 cent. If she would have taken my dollar she would have came out ahead.


Well in the time that we had to kill we are looking at the various "impulse" items you can buy. Its random things like cd's, chapstick, febreeze, dog toys you know all the things that you would really think that you need at the check out. Then we spot IT! Jan finds it first and begins to laugh. She shows it to me and well... words fail me. I am ACTUALLY speechless. QUICK LOSS DIET SPRAY.


Ok number one, who in the hell would buy some shit called Quick Loss Diet Spray? Number Two I mean REALLY??? It works in minutes and lasts for hours? Ok what happens when it wears off? Do you gain twice what you lost? I know that there are lots of things that people will buy to lose weight but a SPRAY??
Ok that is my random rant and I think that if people actually buy this and expect it to work then they should lose weight by having their head cut off because they are obviously not using it.
