I would like to thank the monsters, S and D for helping. J was off socializing with a friend. Here is how our day went. I got home from work at 8 am.. yes 8 in the morning. I tried to lay down but thought of all the stuff we needed to do. So S and I went and bought flowers for the flower pots. We drank gobbs of coffee and I got a little wired. Then they started pulling weeds. I can't believe we have weeds. lol.... G and I went and got mulch. We took Barry's truck and let me say that is a truck. My land yacht does not drive like a truck. Thank God!!! Then we mulched around what we could til we ran out. Then S and she will kill me but she got stung by a wasp on her bum. She cried and it swelled up and she was down for the count after that with a ice bag on her rump for a few hours. I would have cried to. Then I decided or my body decided that being up for 23 hours was not a good thing and I crashed. When I woke up we tore the garden of weeds down. Sorry I don't have before and after pics but you really aren't missing anything. I seemed like a good idea last year to put this ugly fence up but it was a nightmare. So I came up with a new idea. New year, New garden, New idea..Right? Well G just shakes his head and listens and then gives me the manly techincal point of view. Oh, and my new idea...a garden box. Hopefully it will look neat and clean and not like the trailor trash one we had last year. Last years was awlful. While he was doing this, did you notice I said "he?" Well HE came across Sally the snake. So HE killed it. Then I went ahhhhh... I don't like snakes but I hated to see it laying there dead. He said when do females always do that. So later S came out and asked where Sally the snake was and I said proudly that G had killed it and she said...yep...ahhhhh. I think he rolled his eyes. I tried to explain that we will always be female and we will always go..ahhhhh. Anywho. I need to get busy. The rest of the troops are resting peacefully with visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads and I just got a visit from my main man Baxter Bean ... Oh, G still hasn't named this darn fish.I did see a spark in his eye when I mentioned the name Ozzy, the fish of darkness. Ozzy was on the radio when we where hanging new mini blinds in the den. Anywho. Everyone have a great day. And pray for no rain, we have a lot to do. </em></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; DISPLAY: block; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194900060314626146" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6EFgjZbXiu3n301ZVIuyeij2dVUp2y3-koaCIEZrmiuEKyllfLIfqUb7WcP8XayNZAp_I4OMOf2_B2gwLH5MjbSihRMYdPuxaZoGz5ick0b5VLqcD3UWDEK-rJdobZFRJa3o157qcNtrg/s400/d+working+hard.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; DISPLAY: block; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194900068904560754" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqYj4UWDT5dsF8kPCEnc2j_FCj9mQqrZU3T007dMnc8TI3uA1_wOsAIvMNPMs9SvFFhbafdKLwM_MNWlBdFhypnntkn4bJxpwc9PYhUlim4lSwJ1JhjqMiHLxdL8QScGr2_ZPSYAeRRegI/s400/D+and+G+building.jpg" /><br /><br /><br /><p align="center"><em>G giving D instruction on building</em><em><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; DISPLAY: block; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194900068904560770" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjda-RqzfR28ZlB9k_9JjHJ-0kcS4xK3tob-FBS_p0if6-dEHzvQgoNIlfSNnnHv3efXwUqqEuT4m6go6rZqw_nU55PUvBwc9riPFBItVZhp31V7MZF4j5JBvvSn9K85UvohxkwS7CpM-ws/s400/New+garden+box.jpg" /></em></p><br /><br /><br /><p align="center"><em>The finished project.

It was a lot of fun. It was around Halloween so we or I decorated the house as a haunted mansion. We had about 20 friends and family and their kids so the house was busting at the seams. We played and ate and actually for some reason no one drank which was weird but we were too busy playing detective.. We were approached last week about having another one and this was my thought..<br /><br />What if some of you host the same or similar party on the same night and then we all blog about our fun.. Anyone interested? I was thinking this time about having something fun like an 80's party...so tubular.. We could dress in our fish net gloves and our Madonna earrings and like gag the blogging world with a spoon..<br /><br />Let me know what ya think and I will be researching site and game options. <a href="http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/yhst-43578580121885/supersamplegame.pdf">Go to this site and check out a sample </a>Cathyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16388127917229842994noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5260117401840595747.post-72365855006346626102009-08-14T01:32:00.003-04:002009-08-14T02:09:43.136-04:00Show me whatcha got sunday<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqMSYMMLUbEMnC_2vd1n70t4xyva5zwx454SeDQuLs1v1rdAsNzRCHl5X4g_qidlVPVJ5rqWgxrc9gyzS156zulQ0vfAyYvN65y4ZuTaihmJC3-odgfzVO_0oSGB1JEe9EqrPo4o8r-lDL/s1600-h/0813092313-779315.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369688285601896498" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqMSYMMLUbEMnC_2vd1n70t4xyva5zwx454SeDQuLs1v1rdAsNzRCHl5X4g_qidlVPVJ5rqWgxrc9gyzS156zulQ0vfAyYvN65y4ZuTaihmJC3-odgfzVO_0oSGB1JEe9EqrPo4o8r-lDL/s400/0813092313-779315.jpg" /></a>This is my Mary Kay blush collection and one nasty looking dried out foundation..

I know this is life.. but why would a cameraman care enough to go out there and find this whale and then choose to stand there and film it til it either dies or the tide comes in... Oh, this makes me mad.. Ya know when I'm out taking motocross pictures I take the pictures but the minute someone wrecks I throw my camera down and try to help.. I would not, could not and will not stand there and take pictures of someone hurt. Now if they have just dumped it then they are fair game for future proof of their crash talents. ~CathyCathyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16388127917229842994noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5260117401840595747.post-52799808547651850912009-08-13T05:12:00.003-04:002009-08-13T05:25:38.717-04:00SHOW ME WHATCHA GOT- the beginning<em><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Your random pictures of misc stuff around the house has now found a home....</span></strong></em><br /><br />I take pictures of random stuff and I haven't found a meme for it so Sunday, August 16th I am starting something new... <em><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">SHOW ME WHATCHA GOT</span></strong></em>...<br /><br /><br />In the right side bar is a list of dates and categories.<br /> Every Sunday post your pictures of your random crap and come back and leave me a comment.
