Is it Wednesday yet?

Is it Wednesday yet? Cause I feel the need to be whiney. So I need a whiney wednesday. LOL I am just so tired and tired of running. All I want to do is sleep. I have been wanting that for days now. But there has been one thing or another keeping me up and going. If it is not the hubby playing in bed with his new Blackberry phone or the laptop.

Then it is one of the dogs doing God only know whats. And God forbid Bo spend even a little bit of time outside alone. You also can not count on them to need a nap when you do. No no not in this house. Just as I start to dose off the dogs feel the need to pull one of these.

Or maybe one of these.

This is all I am asking for.

And one of these.

Peice and quite for just a little while so that I can get some sleep. Just a little nap to catch me back up. Then I can get back to the 8 million things I have to do around the house and at school and at work ... I think I do to much sometimes. So I am going to go lay down and rest ... even if for only a few minutes ... before I have to go to class. Now if only I can avoid waking to this ...

... I will be a very happy lady.

I hope ....

I hope every one had a happy Thanksgiving and a great holiday weekend. I hope you all go to eat lots and lots of turkey and pumpkin pie and anything else that you love. I hope every one got to spend at least a little time with friends and family. I hope if you have a loved one who could not come home you at least got to talk to them. I hope that you are all happy and healthy and full!

I am .... the calf rescuer!

Where is my cape? Ok so maybe a cape would not be the best idea in the cow yard. My hubby trusted me enough to send me out to move the calves on my own today. I am moving up in the world! So anyway I usher the calves around the bunker and out towards the feed wagon. I was then suppose to put the fence in place and turn to juice on. Which always freaks me out because I have been shocked more then my fair share of the time. And it always sucks. So anyway I discover that once red calf is NOT moving along with the rest. And seems to be making no attempt what so ever to move away from the bunker. *sigh* Don't make trouble for me boy! So I get up close to him and realize ... his head is stuck! The hubby had put up some metal bars at the end of the bunker near the silo in what I assume was an attempt to keep the calves heads out of that area. Well it back fired and infact got a calf stuck there. he he he So anyway I climbed on up to help the poor little bugger out. I was pulling and pushing and twisting around ears like some kind of bizzare cow puzzle. But eventually the calf was freed and happy as all get out to run around again. I am just proud of myself for getting him out with out having to call my inlaws or something. Ya me!

Fear not little ones! The calf rescuer is here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't want to be bitter.

But some times it is hard. I was at "church" tonight for work. They mentioned that family "that has all the girls" and I cringed. God no ... don't say it ... please! "They just had another baby girl yesterday!!!" cheered the lady at the mic. UGH! Ummm ... GOD ... IS THIS THING ON?!?! I mean seriously is it REALLY necessary to kick me in the gut so often? So, ya, they now have 5 girls and 1 boy. 6 kids total. I looked back at my coworker and said " Would they please KNOCK IT OFF so the rest of us have a chance to procreate PLEASE!?" He just laughed. It was one of those laugh or cry moments. I fought back the tears and chose to laugh instead. *sigh* Is it really to much to see one of these again?

Finished Project!!!

Well we finally did it! For the most part anyway. Bryan's new bedroom upstairs is done! That is a huge wieght off my shoulders. He is VERY happy to have a brand new room upstairs and loves sleeping there. I was nervous at first. He has never slept on a totally different floor from me before. He is 10 years old now ... it might be time to cut the cord. LOL So anyway here are some pics of the room!


Photobucket
This is Bryan standing next to his "new" dresser. It is new to him but honestly ... the dresser itself is probably older then I am! LOL But it really makes the room feel more like a bedroom now.


Photobucket
Here is the closet now full of his clothes. That was probably the easiest part of the whole project. Throw it in a basket, carry it upstairs, hand on hangers and stick them in the closet. DONE! You can also see some of his toys. He is still going through his old room, picking out the toys he wants to keep, putting them in the totes that fit on the shelves and donating the rest. We even put a few pics of family on top of his closet. I hoped it would make the room feel more warm and family oriented ... plus it covers the left over paint can. he he he

Photobucket
This is Coco on his new bed. NO Coco it is not yours! Get off! Ya ... right ... good luck with that one Bry!


Photobucket
And of course Bo's happy face. He is glad it is done ... but mad he can't get to the boy at night. he he he


Photobucket
And as usual Mina says "Put the camera down and get me some kitty treats woman!!!"

Do I have to?

Do I have to go out today? Do I really have to go to class? Isn't this class over yet? OY! It's cold out there ... and I don't wanna ... you can't make me ... FINE! I will go. Gotta get milk anyway ... maybe I will get some nice hot coffee while I am at it. Wish me luck!

bad dog ... BAD DOG!

I let the dogs out to go potty. For some strange reason Sonny decided to stay outside. It's 13 degrees ... why would you want to stay out there? So anyway Bo and Coco came back in. I gave them both a treat and went to find myself something to eat. When I came into the living room I saw Bo chewing on something kinda green ... and frozen ... with hay ... oh ... OH ... OH BAD! Bo had decided he wanted a cow patty to chew on in the house. He has a thing not only for cow poop but especially frozen cow poop. It's like some kind of disgusting popsicle for him. UGH! No you can not have it back. Photobucket
Go away! It's gone!

Photobucket
Oh that's real mature Bo!
