No Time
So I was all ready to write about something today when I got carried away with talking to my dear sister online who has been gone away to Wisconsin for the last...oh....6 months or so. OK so that's exhagerating a little bit but it sure does seem like that long! We ended up chatting for awhile and now it is time for me to go and get ready for work. I told Holly that I would send her some reading material, so she'll just have to read what's up here for now. Hi Holly! (jumping up and down waving my hand to Holly!) Hopefully I will have time to write tomorrow along with some pictures. I just learned how to add photos to this blog so I'll have some fun with that! Y'all have a great day and try and keep cool! Leave me a message if you will. It's good to see a comment or two left behind!

Absolutely Fabulous
Has anyone ever seen this British Comedy show "Absolutely Fabulous? It is so friggin funny! You have two very eccentric women who are best friends who smoke cigarettes, do cocaine, smoke an occasional doobie and drink Champagne all day long. Neither one of them know how to do anything for themselves. Edina, is one of them who has a very normal daughter (the ONLY normal person in the bunch!)named Saffy. Edina doesn't like Saffy at all and neither does her best friend Patsy. Actually Patsy despises her. Saffy totally disgusts Patsy and Patsy isn't afraid to let anyone know it either. This is just a brief description of the characters in the show. If you have never seen it before you should watch it. It takes a little bit to get used to. You really have to watch an episode or two before you get to understand who and what the characters are all about. My brother Craig turned me on to this show a few years back. I went by his house one day and he called me in the living room and told me that I have to watch this show. I watched it and thought that it was kind of stupid all the while he was just laughing his ass off. Well this went on for a few days and the next thing you knew I was hooked! A couple times of watching it, Scott and the kids were hooked too! Well, to make a long story short, we cancelled our cable and no longer was able watch it. I had thought about the show a few times in the past and even got lucky and caught a couple episodes when I went by Lorries house one night. Well, I went to Best Buy this past weekend and seen that they had a 2 disc DVD of "Absolutely Fabulous", the Complete Series 5 and so I splurged and bought it. Again, it took a little bit to get used to but love it! It's like meeting up with old friends again that I haven't seen in ages! I missed this show so much and so now I am on the hunt to get the other 4 completes series. They also have new ones coming out on September 13th. I can't wait! I would like to one day own all of them. Just like all the "friends" series. These are two shows that have been my favorites for so long. So if anyone comes across these anywhere for a good price, think of me and pick them up. It'll make me a happy camper.

Retail Therapy
As you can see I am back up and running. (Bet nobody even noticed I was gone at all. Sniff sniff)
Any hoot... I was feeling a little down and out last week and so I took myself on a "little" shopping spree. After all, I needed to pick up some things for my trip in a couple of weeks and pick up a birthday present for Nichole. So while Scott was at work I took a trip to the mall. Now everyone knows how I hate the mall, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. I was walking around Dillards and picked up the pair of Rainbow sandals that Nicki had been wanting. While there, I found a pair of cute black shoes that I had seen a couple months ago and regretted not buying and so I bought those too. Well, the purse department was right next to the shoes department and so I mosied on over there and found they had a good sale going on. Well, I can't pass up a good sale! So I found me a leather pocketbook I liked. Bought that too. What good is new shoes and a new pocketbook without something new to wear it with right? So upstairs I go to the womans clothing department. I head right to the clearance and low and behold I find a pair of Capri's and 3 tops that were priced just right for me and so I bought those too. I thought I'd better get ouit of this store because I am spending waaaay to much money in here and so I head on down to another department store. What is that I see? A sale? I better go and check it out. It's safe to look because I never find nothing I like in this store anyway. Wrong. Found a couple more tops that were just to good a price to pass up. And plus they went well with the Capri's, shoes and purse I just bought so what the hell, I bought those too. I thought I'd better head on home because I didn't want to get stuck in the rush hour traffic so I start heading back and naturally I had to stop at Lane Bryant while passing it on my way out. There I buy 3 more tops, well one was for work so I NEEDED that one, so that doesn't count. OK here I go. If I don't leave now I'm going to get stuck in traffic. Wait.....theres INK bookstore. Let me just see if they have the new issue of scrapbook magazines in yet. Yes they do! Yippee! Which to choose from......I hate making decisions! Can't think... Can't think.....screw it......take them all. NOW I am finally headed for the car to get home and what happens? There's traffic up the ass. That's ok though because my feet are tired from all the walking I done. Once home I show hubby all my purchases! He just smiles and see's how happy I am and doesn't say a word. Bless his heart. He's the best! Well, I'm still not done spending money and so I ask Scott, "Honey do you want to take a ride to Best Buy with me? I want to look at computers." Sure. He'll come with me. So off we go. Well, needless to say we didn't just "look". We ended up buying a whole new computer, some software, batteries and battery charger, more memory for my camera and a couple other things we needed. Buy the time we got home I was completely exhausted! My feet hurt so bad, I was tired, thirsty, hungry and had a headache from hell! But you know what? I FELT GOOD! That is just what I needed!

I suddenly LOVE tomatoes!

Who needs a husband when we have TOMATOES! Yes, this is a real tomatoe on a tomatoe plant. One of the "peas" on the message board posted this and it got me thinking.....I need to plant some tomatoes. I never really got into gardening before but I think it's time for me to start. I suddenly have this urge to go out in the backyard and dig it all up and plant nothing but tomatoe plants. Can you imagine it? Going out on my back deck and seeing all these beautiful tomatoes out there. Growing and getting larger by the day! I'm getting sooo excited just thinking about it! I can imagine Scott coming home and wondering why nothing is done around the house. Honey? Why does the house look look like it hasn't been cleaned in a month? Because I been tending to the tomatoes. Honey? Why have we eaten dinner in such a long time? Because I been tending to the tomatoes. Honey? Why don't we have sex anymore? Because I been tending to the tomatoes. Honey? Why are there tomatoes on your nightstand? Uhh...........

I hope you all miss me.
Just a note to let everyone that reads this stupid blog of mine know, that I will no longer be writing. My computer kicked the bucket. I cannot log in to this site unless I am at work and I just don't have the time while I'm at work to write. Soooooooo.....until further notice, I am outta here. I will let everyone know when I start back up again. All you have to do is let me know that you want to know. Sign my guestbook and I will let you know as soon as I am up and running again.
I'm really gonna miss writing in here. Hopefully it won't be too long before I will be back.
