Hmmmm....Just say the word....

Deneen had this great idea to use one word to describe her then ask us copy and paste her request to our blogs.

One Word is All I Ask
Please leave a one-word comment that you think best describes me--it can only be one word long. Then copy and paste this into your blog so I may leave a comment about you.This is not so much about fishing for compliments as it is an exercise showing how hard it is to use just one word to describe someone! When I try, I keep thinking up phrases or at the least, two words. Give it a try & I'll do the same for you if you're so inclined. :)

It's to hot outside for a Husky

As opposed to it being "To Hard out there for a Pimp", LOL. Ok well it was suppose to be funny. Drum roll please................We bought a house!! We closed last Thursday and I began moving us in last weekend. We love our new house and we have more room than we have ever had in our lives. I still haven't unpacked everything and am really sick of seeing all the stuff to be honest. I am really weeding a lot out because I don't want all the junk around and I know in a couple of years I will have more junk. As I said this house is huge compared to what we are use to. The house we were renting was about 1100 sq ft and this one is about 1740 sq feet. It is two stories. The kids rooms are upstairs, they have a full bath and there are three huge cloests in my oldest sons room 2 I use for storage. The linen closet is upstairs also. Down stairs is the large living room with a gas fireplace, behind the living room is the eat in kitchen. There is a large bay window where the table is. The kitchen has one large pantry and one large coat closet. Between the closets is a hallway that has a half bath then further down the hall is the masterbedroom. The master bed room is HUGE. The bath "suite" has a double vanity, a toliet closet and a jacuzzi bath. Also the massive walk in closet is in there also. Back to the kitchen if you go to your left after leaving the master bedroom there is a mud room then out the door to the garage with automatic door. The back yard is fully fenced and it boast a very large storage building. The dogs love being able to go out without the lead. They are so funny to watch playing in the morning, jumping and running all over the back yard. They have never been able to do with before. However, they do not like the heat. Husky's and heat do not mix. Dakota who is the largest and the oldest just wants to go potty and come back in. He could care less about staying out there any longer than he has too. London and Indigo love it. The romp and run and have the best time. They really surprized me they come back in when I call them to come in. I'm just so proud!!! I am so proud of our new home and the eldest finally has his own room!! Whoo hoo!!

I haven't done much in the way of crocheting and knitting latley. I have tried but I have been so dang tired from all the moving and such. It's been rather hectic and soccer will be starting again soon. Tori is trying out for the competitive team this evening and hopefully she will make it. That could lead to a scholarship to college for her. She loves soccer and I hope for her that she will make it. Speaking of soccer Saturday the USA team is playing Italy in one of the World Cup matches. I intend on parking my large rear end on the carpet with my daughter and the dogs to watch the match. After that I'm going outside and pull up bushes and work on a flower beds. I can't wait. One of the only things I miss about my old house is my beautiful flower beds. I really miss them. I am going to be digging up some of my plants and flowers and moving them to the new house. I hope they will live and not go into to complete shock and die. I have to go and buy dirt because the dirt that is at this house sucks. It's going to be so much fun!!

Three words I longed to hear

Whoo Hoo Yipee!!! I finally heard the words that I have always wanted to hear!!! You are approved!!!! Not only approved but preapproved!! WhooHoo!!! We are going to buy a house. The very first time for both of us!! We have started looking and think we have found what we want, and we are going to look at it Thursday. We live in an 1100 sq ft house and the one we are looking to move into is 1592 sq foot. Plus lots of floored attic space and a storage building in the back yard. The yard is landscaped and has a garden swing and the most important thing is the back yard is fenced in and the dogs can go out back during the day. Whoo Hoo Yipee!!! We have worked so hard to get to this point were we can own and not rent any more. It's taken 6 years to get our credit cleaned up and get things back in order since all the loss of jobs and what not. Did I mention WhooHoo Yipee!!!! Oh yea I suppose that I did. I am trying very hard to keep it real and know that we should look at more than one. But, well here look for yourself

*The link that I had put in here before won't work because I got word today that someone put a contract on the house. We are still going to put a back up offer on it just in case that the first one falls thru**

Wish us luck and those that pray, pray that all will go smoothly.

Thanks,

As the time flies on by

As I watched my daughter last night riding Tara, the horse, at her horseback riding lessons, I noticed that she is becoming a young woman. Yes I'm aware that she is only 13, but she was only 3 yesterday, right? Or so it seems. She has picked up riding the horses so well and it just surprises me to no end. She loves to lope and canter with the horses and Tara is just right for that. Tara is a 20 year old Arabian. She is a beautiful horse who even at 20 is still just as full of spirit. Tori was afraid of her the first few times because she is so full of herself but now she is the only one she wants to ride. The had a English saddle on Tara and was teaching Tori how to post. For the first time posting, Tori just about nailed it. But today she is sooo sore. Now she has ridden western and English. I can see her riding in shows before long. I guess we are going to have to look into investing in a horse for that. After her riding lesson, she had to go for practice with her band at church. She sings in a band on Sunday mornings for kids service. But this Wednesday she is singing as the lead singer in the big church. I can not get over how well she sings. Again, holy cow she is growing up. I have forgotten my camera everytime she has a lesson. I am going to make a concerted effort to remember the camera on Monday for her next lesson. My luck it will be raining and she won't be riding.

Back to growing up to fast. My eldest is going to be driving soon. He is 15 and I have purposely held off on him getting his permit because I didn't feel like he was mature enough to even learn to drive. I believe now that he is about ready, so I think next week on my birthday I'm going to take him to get the permit. He is working on the weekends and paying for a truck that my neighbor is selling. Granted it is not much but he is buying it and will be working when he turns 16 to pay for his insurance. Cody has come such a long way. Just 3 years ago I thought I was going to loose him. I'm so glad that I have him safe and happy.

Shelby is 10, soon to be 11. He is driving me nuts acting like a nut at school. He has been in trouble so many times at school that I'm ready to skin him alive. Friday he got wrote up and put in ALC plus lost his field trip and then got suspended off the bus for 3 days. I swear he's going to drive me to drinking. I had been telling him I was going to take him to get his hair cut. His hair grows like crazy and had become to long to deal with. However, he told me no he wasn't getting it cut (BIG mistake on his part) so on Friday when he came home with all these problems I sent him to the back yard told the oldest to go and get my clippers and shaved that boys head. I thought he was going to cry but instead he looked at me and said,"Wow this feels better". Ugggggg!! He is the sweetest boy ever, big heart, loves to be held and kissed on but dang if he don't drive me nuts. I'm really hoping that he is going to mature some over the summer.

They are just growing up to fast. It seems like yesterday that they were just little guys and I'm just getting older. My birthday is next week and I will be 41. I remember when Cody was born and I was only 25, gosh doesn't seem like that much time has passed.

Oh Happy Day!!!

The day has finally come that I will be free of the person I work with forever. She has found another job and is moving on. I wish her well and hope that she will do well in her new job, so well in fact that she never looks back and wants to come back to this office ever again.
My boss has surprised me and is looking at my feelings as well as what is best for the office when hiring someone. We, all three of us, want someone in here that we all get along with and will actually do some work as opposed to playing or doing someone elses work. This office has not been the same since this woman got here but that is all going to change come tomorrow morning. It will be mine for the next two weeks at least. Yes it will be very busy and I will not have much time to do anything but answer the phone and work on dockets and such plus I'm fixing the office back the way I want it. I am senior clerk hear me roar!!!! The title doesn't mean much at all except that I get the priviledge of training the new girl on day to day operations. Oh Happy Day!! I never thought this day would come!!!

On to some knitting or crocheting, I haven't done to much in the way of either. I did finish the scarf for the swap but I haven't shipped it primarly because its been rainy and I didn't want to go to the Post Office. I want to knit a bowl. A bowl to hold more yarn. Oh and speaking of yarn I am dying do you hear me o' husband of mine, I'm dying to buy some yarn. I haven't been able to buy yarn for awhile now and I'm suffering from withdrawels. If you love me you will help me out with this one. Your proceeds this weekend from your guns should really be turned over to me so that I can feed my need. You know my dear one that I have a yarn monkey on my back and there is no cure for the disease I have. Only to buy more yarn will give me my fix. That was a bit corny started sounding like a song for a second there. Hehe a song about being a yarn junkie!! Really I'm a yarn whore, Hey baby want a sock for that foot?? LOL. I think thats what I will be doing this evening I think I will knit. It's a thunderus night some good ole knitting just might do the trick.

See ya'll later

Foodie Friday

Carol's Chilli

2lbs ground beef
2 large green peppers, diced
2 large yellow onions, diced

1 can diced tomatos, drained

2 cans tomato paste

2 cans tomato sauce (if needed)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic minced
1 large pkg of red kidney beans, soaked and cooked
or you can use Bush's Chillie Hot Beans (for my family I use about 4 large cans)
chilli powder
cumin
pinch cayenne pepper


Brown ground beef, drain. Put ground beef back on heat and add the chilli pepper, cumin, and cayenne mix well. (I do not know how much of these I use and I think there is one other spice but I'm at work and will have to look when I get home, but I will add it.) In small saute pan, heat olive oil saute peppers, onions and garlic until soft. Add vegetables to the meat and mix together. Add the cans or cooked beans and mix together. I usually add more spices until I get it the way my family likes it. I also usually fix a pan of cornbread to go with the chilli. Think I might make chilli this evening its a damp rainy day that might be good for a change.

Last night was my daughters very first horse back riding lesson. She loved it. She had never been on a horse by herself before and she shocked me and the instructor, she handled the horse very well. The horse is very easy to work with and the lady couldn't have picked a better horse to start her on. Now Tori is hooked. So now that soccer is about over with she has something else to keep her out of trouble. I am so very glad we found this it just seems right for her. I sure wish I would loose some of this weight I sure would like to ride myself. I haven't ridden in many years, good grief its been 20 years ago I guess. I love riding. Maybe that will be my motivation so I can ride with my daughter. I want to ride this Arabian horse she has, this horse is beautiful and so gentle. I wish I had of had my camera last night but somehow my memory stick got lost and I had no way to store the pictures. I bought one after we left her house so I will take pictures next Monday of her riding the Arabian.

A month..

It has been almost a month since I last wrote anything. I just haven't had time and really nothing to write about, or maybe I just didn't want to engage my brain into thinking that hard. Yea that's it!!! Hehe. Actually, I have been so busy and so much going on that I didn't know where to start. Soccer is about over but we are leaving Friday for Starkville for tournament for 3 days. We haven't gotten the schedule yet but hopefully they will not be playing 8 am games. Those are tough. And we found out on Friday that the girls team will be playing in the Regional tournament in May. So I have to get another hotel room for then. I hope to find a good one with a indoor pool for the kids to play after their games. After that soccer should be over till Fall season. That in itself will cut down a lot on our runnings. Explorers will be the only other thing going on.

I have got to get out with Cody this spring and teach him how to drive. He needs to be able to get his permit soon. He just doesn't listen to well and I'm nervous about teaching him. I have tried to let him drive before just down the street to the house but he doesn't hold it straight. Then will not listen to me about the turn signals he wants to talk over me. Now to be fair to him that's been months ago, so I guess its time to try again. I also worry about teaching him in my V8 SUV. He gives it to much gas and he will panic then I will have a wrecked V8 SUV. I guess I am just not prepared for one of my kids to be old enough to drive.

Easter was a great day!! I drove my mom and my niece with my kids to Hayti, MO to visit some of her family. We had a fantastic lunch and sat around talking about this and that. We saw a lot of the devistation that the tornados that hit the area a couple of weeks ago, did. Lots of metal silo's just crushed like someone just balled up a piece of aluminum foil, twisted metal of all sorts, splintered wood, etc. Scary!!! After we got home, the boys (and girls) all got dressed up to play Airsoft. It was wonderful!!! I got to spend about 2 hours alone, just me and the dogs. It was wonderful to just be alone.

Crying....

This weekend has been another one of those weekends. Gary and I got into an argument, well actually it was more of a blowout (we only do this about once a year so I guess it was coming) and I cried all day Saturday. I should have been over it by Sunday but no I cried all day then too. I don't know why I am so emotional this weekend but I have been. This morning I was cussed out by one of the defendents that come thru here, normally this wouldn't have bothered me at all but this guy got under my skin. I shouldn't have allowed him to get to me that way but as soon as he left I started crying again. He didn't get his way so he took it out on me and my department. My co-workers witnessed it and he was even chased out of the building my the court clerk and an officer. What I should have done is walked away from the window when he started up and let him stand there for a bit. I shouldn't have put up with him. And he called me rude, sheesh!! Hopefully the rest of the day will go along smoothly and I won't have another incident today.

Horn Lake Explorers

My son is an Explorer. Maybe I should tell you what being an Explorer is. Our police department sponsors a group of young men and women that are interested in law enforcement. Our group are led by a wonderful young man who has done remarkable things with these teens. He is one of our fine officers here in Horn Lake. This weekend they participated in a Police Olympics. Our team of Explorers excelled!! We took home the majority of the gold and silver medals and our group was given the honor of being the color guard for the award banquet. My son was given the opportunity to be apart of the color guard and carried the American flag. I am so very proud of my son. He has come a long way and I believe that he is going to grow into a fine man. This is a picture of him in his Explorer Uniform.

March already

I can not believe that it is March already. Good grief the months are flying by. Does this mean that once again Christmas will be a'knocking before long? I swear since I had children (no there are no new ones) time just flies by. I really wish our lives were not so hurry hurry all the time. To lay down and take a nap and not have to worry about waking up at any certain time because something has to be done or to sit on my front porch and knit or crochet for as long as I wanted without having to worry about taking one of the kids somewhere or answering the stupid phone. Man, can you imagine just slowing your life down to a walking pace.
On a good note, I received my purse/tote from my partner on the Swap Spring Purse and Tote swap from Crochetville. I am so impressed. It is gorgeous and I love it. I hope that the lady I made the tote for likes hers. I'm so nervous about her getting it. I shipped it today so I will be hearing something soon I hope. I always get so nervous about giving anything I make to someone.


I wish everyone a safe and happy weekend.

Bye Ya'll,

Oh the pain....

This weekend has been busy. I don't mean a little bit but a lot of busy. I left work early Thursday afternoon and took off the entire day Friday to get the kids ready to go to their trip with the church for the weekend. I had unknown amounts of laundry to get done and everytime I thought I actually might be done with it more would pop up from somewhere in the house. Like out of the boys room in the closet or dirty clothes out of my daughters drawers because she was to lazy to bring them to the dirty clothes hamper. I ran that washer and dryer a half of day Thursday and all day Friday, you know my water and electric bill are going to be huge. Friday afternoon my friend Laura called me to ask me if I still wanted the bedroom suite that they had and I told her that I couldn't afford to buy it from her right now and she probably needed to sell it. She told me they were not worried about the money we would make arraingments and I told her that I didn't like to get involved with money matters with my friends because money causes friendships to be lost and I valued her friendship to much for that and no amount of money could replace her as my friend. She said she understood. About an hour later she calls me back to tell me that her and her husband decided to give us the bedroom suite because they knew that we would take care of it. I was shocked. Happy and excited but shocked. I love it, it is absolutly beautiful and I am so very grateful to her and her husband for this wonderful gift. All weekend my youngest son and I moved furniture from around the house to make room for the new bedroom suite. It took Friday night and all of Saturday to get it right but it is so worth it. I also took advantage of the moving around to clean out some stuff and throw some stuff away. As well as cleaning out part of the boys room to make room for the chest of drawers to fit in there. And I took a bunch of my home interiors items that is no longer available and hung up. It is really starting to look good in the house and I'm very proud of it but good grief I am sooo tired today.
Looks like this week is going to be an busy one as well. I have 2 kids playing soccer and all week they have practice then both have a game on Saturday at the same time. Should be fun!!!

Have a great week!!

To much to do, to little time to do it

I had a great weekend and a day off. Saturday it was only me and the boys, while the eldest drove me crazy with how absolutly bored he was and how he wanted me to drive him somewhere, anywhere it really didn't matter where. Which I wasn't going to do because of the ice on the ground. My youngest stayed curled up on the loveseat watching cartoons. We had lunch and dinner together and I finished my socks, YEA!!! They are ugly but they are warm and they fit my big fat feet. I really should have made them longer on the leg but I didn't take into account that my calves are the size of calves so when I wear them they come just above my ankles. Even so, I am so proud of them that I actually made a pair of socks. I have a ton of sock yarn now because I enjoyed so much making these socks that I want to make more. After I fininshed those socks I started a tote for co-workers daughter to take on a cruise with her. It's crocheted and its just full of fun spring and summer colors. It has a drawstring on the top and the purse part is huge. I can't wait for her mom to give it to her. I told her mom it was for her daughter because she was so good to her mom and took care of her. I have to start an afghan to donate to a charity affair. A gentleman that works for the probation service we use had a massive heart attack and the company doesn't offer insurance so he and his family are very strapped for money to pay bills. His co- workers are holding a benefit for him in a month. They are holding a silent auction in his behalf and so they have asked me to donate something to that cause. No problem. I think I'm going to make the filet ripple I have made before. Its beautiful so I think thats the one I will do. Besides I can get it done quick. I think it will do well in an auction. I hope anyway.


Have a great day,

Ice, Ice, Ice, Baby, Ice.....

Last night around midnight the weather turned ugly. Not that we didn't expect it, that's all the weather men on the local news have talked about. This "ice storm" has been compaired to the Ice Storm of '94 and how bad it was going to be. Well, I'm here to tell you, it's not looking good. It's still sleeting and ice pellets are falling from the very snow pregant grey sky. It's cold and very slippery out there and I'm not moving out of this house. I'm not even going to take the dogs out my son is going to do that. Since Dakota pulled me down on my hip last weekend on the snow I'm not risking it. I just heard a car drive down the road maybe the roads are as bad as I thought but in my SUV I'm not taking any chances. Lasts year when the ice came it did't hold well in the ice and slid all over the road. Not trying it. Besides with all the red necks around here doing donuts in the middle of the streets I don't think I will even get out. I think I will make a big pot of soup and some cornbread sounds good to me. And finish my socks then I can wear my own warm wool socks that I made. Hehe!!!

Stay warm Ya'll,

One of those days.....

It has been the most horrible day!! That person I work with is just plain out to drive me completely out of my mind. Not that I need much help attaining that type of insanity, my kids have helped me out quite a bit. No matter what I say or what I do, I am being rude to her. I don't care if its hello hows your day, its going to come out rude. I have told her and my boss that this the same way I talk to everyone and only she has the problem with it. I'm not bowing down to her or cowering in a corner because she thinks she runs the office, which by the way I am senior clerk in this office. This does not mean I have any authority this means if the head clerk and the other head clerk are out then I'm in charge. Not that I want to be in charge of a woman that has her head stuck so far up her... nevermind you get the point. For two years this crap has been going on and I am now completely sick of it. My direct supervisior says that its the way I say things to her, well I guess I need to sit in my corner and keep my mouth completely shut because nothing I say is good enough. She is going to be able to run the office and be self appointed office manager no matter what. No one in that building works up there with her I am the only one and I hear the crap she pulls and they way she treats people and for some odd reason when things like what happened today happens I get the blame. SHEEEESSHH!! I am just soooo over it all. Ok I need to quit my blood pressure is already up because of this.
On a good note I did however finish my booga bag check this out ya'll
I also completed one sock. Yea I know that it has to have a mate and yes I'm working on that socks mate. The only reason that I'm mentioning this is I am patting myself on the back because it is my first. Yes, I Carol, was a sock virgin. I now have made my first sock and frogged the second. I was about done with the second when I noticed that the heel sucked so I had to start all over. So here is the picture of the lonely sock. It kind of looks like its for an elephant now that I look at it. But it was my first. Wasn't everyones first a bit iffy, wasn't sure if you liked it or not?? Didn't know if you ever were going to try that again?? Oh wait we are talking about socks. I will leave you with that thought if thinking doesnt hurt enough today.

See ya,

Wonders never cease!

Will wonders never cease to happen?? I shore hope not!! I can not believe I actually knitted something that I can use. Take a look.... Now remember it is still drying on a box covered with an old trusty Wal-mart bag. I sure hope it looks that good after it dries.

I'm also trying to knit socks. And so far so its going pretty good. But I haven't gotten to the heal part yet. See....
Not to bad huh?? Ok my dogs are barking at me to take them out so before their eye balls start floating I better get them out to go potty.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow...

It snowed today!! I love snow but living in the South we don't get much. Mostly we get ice I hate ice. I think we wound up with about 3 or 4 inches of the beautiful white stuff. The kids had just got out of school when it started and about 30 minutes later my boss walked in the door and told us the mayor told us to pack it up and go home. They actually closed city hall for the snow. Let me ask you how cool is that???? I couldn't believe that we got a half snow day. I felt like a kid again. Too cool!!! Not that we were doing anything to begin with it was slower than snails. So, I get home and start taking the dogs out to potty and Dakota got excited (remember they are snow dogs) and pulled me a bit to hard on the slippery stuff and down I went. The neighbor kids across the street were watching this fat ole lady hit the drive way and be pulled a bit by a large Siberian Husky. You know that had to be a funny sight. I'm a bit sore after ward but I think I actually bounced down the drive way. I'm pretty sure this fat has springs in it. I had to laugh at myself for being so stupid as to wear the shoes I had on in the snow. When I got up I was wet all over and soooo very cold. I hope this stuff does not turn into ice but it probably will.

Looky what I got!!!

I got my package from my partner on the wool swap on Crochetville today!! Oh boy did I get excited!! I squeeled so loud my dogs had to get up from their nice soft place of laying around (known as the most expensive dog bed) the sofa to see what the heck was wrong with their mommy. As I have told you before Dakota just gets un-nerved when I act like there is something horribly wrong (good or bad). She sent 4 skeins of Patrons Merino Wool in Tuscan colors an 2 skeins in grey/white and I'm thinking socks. She also sent a drop spindle and some wonderful roving to spin. She also sent instructions, bless her heart!! I sure do not know how to spin but I sure want to learn. I am so tickled about this package. It feels like Christmas again. I can not wait to do another yarn swap.

On another note, I am knitting a booga bag and I'm so surprised that I was even able to start this let alone be as far as I am with it. I will post a picture this evening to show everyone my progress. I'm running for now I don't have my contacts in and my eyes are killing me. I will write more later.
