nuttin honey

I got nuthin' .















"Thanks for not crapping on me bird."














Market day in Fareham.They set up these stalls on the pedestrian street ,right in the middle of town.
















(Click 'em to see them full sized)


























I'm not sure if I could buy meat from a meat stand.














I didn't buy anything actually.
















Found this alcove to stand in while waiting for hubby to pick me up.

Presenting the worst pizza in the world!


I treated myself last night to a delivered pizza.


OMG! The crust was awful, the sauce was bland and the toppings were practically nonexistent.









I tried chili flakes, salt and Parmesan ......it was still awful.I had to eat it anyway.





No more British pizza!





Happy Tuesday Ya'll!

They don't make 'em like they used to...or do they?

My thrilling weekend consisted of watching these movies. Woo hoo!







When fluffy, bubble gum movie star Megan Valentine (Jessica Simpson) suddenly finds herself broke and humiliated in the public eye, she wanders from the wreckage of a car accident and witlessly enlists in the U.S. Army hoping in vain that it will change her life. The spoiled actress immediately finds herself at odds with her tough drill sergeants and the harsh discipline of Army life. It leads to many humerous situations. In the end, however, Valentine wins the respect of her fellow trainees and they all graduate together. This movie is set at Fort Jackson, which is a real Army training base.


** I have never seen Jessica Simpson in any movie before. This movie is basically a remake of Private Benjamin (which I loved) ,this one was watchable though. It's a chick flick for sure.Her male Sargent is cute and her friends are familiar. The "candy bar" scene is ludicrous.
I give it 2 STARS.







Author: Wolf30x from Cincinnati, OH

The Strangers is a movie that delivers everything it promises it would. It scares you. Simple as that. Instead of relying on buckets of gore and an over-contrived premise, it keeps things simple and thats what makes it work. For an hour and a half, the viewer is subjected to a slowly mounting sense of dread that just keeps building without ever pulling back. The story never falls victim to the usual horror movie clichés, but at the same time , it doesn't make any ridiculous attempts to go against them. Perhaps the best thing that the movie has going for it is it's believability. There isn't really any thing to distract the viewer from buying into the premise wholeheartedly. Considering that this is the director's first ever movie, it's a feat that's even more impressive. This is the kind of movie you shouldn't watch at home alone in the dark.


*** I had wanted to see this one when it came out at the theater but never made it.I DID watch it all alone in the house and it WAS scary. Based on a true story. Which is why it was so believable and had me screaming out loud a few times.
I give it 3 STARS.









Australia
is the story of Lady Sarah Ashley (Nicole Kidman), an English, aristocratic woman who leaves England to follow her husband to Australia. He is in Australia with the intention of selling his cattle station the size of Belgium. However, Lady Ashley believes he is having an affair and travels out there to confront him. The property is in the north of Australia, and she embarks on an African Queen type journey, accompanied by a rough, hewn cattle drover (Hugh Jackman). Ultimately, Lady Ashley finds herself inheriting the cattle station and, in order to save it, she and the drover must undertake an epic cattle drive to Darwin. In the course of that journey, she falls in love with the drover, and the Australian landscape, and realizes that her life is not over, and there’s always a new life to be had. The title Australia is intended to sum up the story of her life - her journey, the landscape, and the people she meets - all of which transform her life forever.








*****I LOVED this movie!This movie was like an old movie. The way they USED to make them. The scenery was beautiful. The little boy is adorable. Hugh Jackman is smokin' hot and Nicole Kidman is realistic in her role.I may have even shed a few tears. It is LONG though so get your snacks ready and dig in ,you won't want to miss a second of it.
I give it 5 STARS.

And some new Inclined 2 decline, it's ok this one is safe. Brown eyed girl!

Pigs do fly ...eventually....right?


Happy Wednesday peeps,


I'm sitting here in near darkness ,trying to hen peck this post. Why , you ask? Because every time my husband is gone......every damn light bulb in the house simultaneously burns out.





Not only do I not have 20 light bulbs lying around .....I also can't reach most of them with out a ladder. ACK!


I really have nothing to post about any way. I should be packing stuff. But since his fall and then the flu, my husband is behind on getting me a list of what he wants me to pack. I have not even started the process of getting my VISA,I am waiting for the cat kennels to arrive.
I am also waiting for a nerve wracking call from my doctor. My entire life is a big limbo of waiting right now.
ACK!


















Last night I cleaned out and inventoried my pantry . Woo Hoo! What was the highlight of my day?Oh yeah, there wasn't one.


I am SOOO ready for my trip to Chicago.I'm going to see my babies, and shop 'til I drop and eat REAL food,and see my friend Heidi and takes oodles of pictures.So far, that's my plan. What? I'm an old lady.
:)
My kids have stuff planned,like concerts to go , racquetball to play, tennis to play,jogging to do. Ha! I will NOT be partaking in any of those activities.Thank you.


















*********************************************************************************






Cavuto decided to stuff his graceful ass into the bar shelf.








Ok, I'm shuttin' up . You can wake up now. :)


Have a great day ya'll!

Luv me

Dinky washers and dead plants......


TGIFF!

For a 4 day week, hasn't this week lasted forever??WTH.

Well, here I have wasted 3 weeks on my pity pot, feeling like I am going to be here forever before I go to England.Last night ,it dawned on me.....if I go in November....that only gives me 7 weeks to get allll this work done. Yikes! (It's really 8 ,but I'll be gone a week of that seeing my chillun's)

I better get into panic work mode.I have a TON of work to do. What was I thinking?

I have to pack up everything we are taking. Pack up all our personal stuff that we are not taking.Move all that stuff somewhere,get the whole house spotless (in case we decide to rent it for racing season)Detail the truck and the boat, cover up the boat,sell the car, get a visa, finish the cats crazy appointments (so they can get into the country)Get rid of a million clothes,pack what's left, get my winter clothes out of the attic. Lose 20 pounds, quit smoking.....ha ha , may as well throw that in for laughs.

Whew! It's time to get my lazy self busy...VERY busy.

********************************************************************************
What is with this stupid underlining?

My husband has been traveling all week. he told me yesterday that he bought a patio table and a chair.And is now using that for his desk/table /place to sit.
He said "That's all I'm going to buy now, until you get here."

That brings his total household furnishings up to :

Patio table
lawn chair
Flat screen t.v.
Air mattress with foam topper
cheap clothes hanging rack
2 curtains
his laptop
clothes drying rack

Only a man could survive for months in that environment.
:)

******************************************************************************



Remember this cute little washing machine?

When he tried to use it for the first time.......
he said "there was a rubber belt laying inside of it."

He thought"hmmm, they must have fixed it and left that in there."

So he loads his clothes up, figures out how to turn the thing on and goes upstairs to take a shower.

He gets out of the shower and still hears the sound of water running.

He gets down to the kitchen and the whole damn kitchen is flooded. The water is still just pouring out of the washer onto the floor.
There is no way to open the door on those washers until the cycle is finished. He figures out how to shut the water off to the washer.

He has no material in the house except suits and some brand new towels he had (luckily) just bought.He cleans up the flood with the new towels , which he now has no way to wash OR dry.

Next stop.....he gets to go experience the British laundry mat. (The picture of him in a laundry mat cracks me up)

*******************************************************************************
Well , the rain has FINALLY stopped. Today we will see the sun for the first time in a week.
Before all the rain started I had taken my dead garden and put some of it in a big trash bag. As of yesterday ,the bag and the rest of the plants are so waterlogged ,they now weigh about 5,000 pounds.I must figure out a way to get them to the dumpster today.






I'm surprised my neighbors haven't complained about the state of my patio. ack!






White trash alert!






I better get busy.....the longer I sit here the bigger my feeling of panic.

Have a great Friday Peeps!

Luv me

P.s.
If any of you have a carpet shampooer like THIS
Please tell me how to use it.

movie reviews:



O = old lady love factor

C=chick love factor

M=men hate factor

F=family love factor

*'s = MY personal opinion


College Road Trip

Directed by Roger Kumble (THE SWEETEST THING, JUST FRIENDS)
, the 2008 comedy COLLEGE ROAD TRIP stars Martin Lawrence as
Chicago cop James Porter, an overprotective father who wants to
keep
his college-bound daughter, Melanie (Raven-Symone), close to home.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stop-Loss

Synopsis: Director Kimberly Peirce (BOYS DON'T CRY)
tackles another
controversial topic with STOP-LOSS, the story of a U.S. soldier
forced back into battle. Brandon King (Ryan Phillippe) has just returned
to
Texas after a harrowing final tour in Iraq. He's accompanied by the
remaining men from his unit, all of whom are more than a little shell-shocked.
Welcomed home as a hero, Brandon is awarded a Purple Heart by a visiting
state senator. But the homecoming quickly turns sour, as each of the soldiers
struggles to assimilate back into society.

***** I want to buy this movie!
O: *****
C:*****
F:only tweens and up
M:***** Men should love it too.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meet Bill

Synopsis: Meet Bill (Aaron Eckhart)—a doormat if there ever was one.
A man reduced to a mere accessory to his family by working a dead end
job at his father-in-law's bank, Bill's wife Jess (Elizabeth Banks) is loathe
to explain her "friendship" with the local news anchorman (Timothy Olyphant).
But Bill's fate begins to change when he becomes mentor to a self-assured boy
(Logan Lerman) who engineers Bill's recovery with the help of a cute lingerie sales girl named Lucy (Jessica Alba). Together, the trio confronts Bill's hapless life with humor and energy while forcing him to capture his dream of being financially independent and self-confident.

Weeds,wine and well done steak....

Hi Y'all,

Well Friday was my big anniversary "date" with my friend Eva. First we took the boat out for a few hours and floated around like lazy slugs . It started to rain (as usual)
We needed to be back here at 4:30 anyway because of the flower fiasco.



Imagine my horror when THESE were delivered to my door.I called my spouse and said "they don't quite look like what you normally send."

Once I showed him the picture.....he was livid!


And had THIS to say to the flower company.






"The arrangement is nothing short of hideous.

I am disgusted with your service and the florist you are using.........I DEMAND
a REFUND .
You can send your florist to pick up the flowers.

If you don't provide a refund I will go to the credit card company and
protest the charge!

Nothing would please me more than sending you a picture of the arrangement
that was sent. You could see for yourself how pathetic it is. "


After the flower woman called and chewed ME out on the phone ,they said they would "pick up the arrangement and bring a new one at 4:30."


So, we get back here and Eva is doing my nails. Floozie 2 comes over. I inform Eva that when the flowers come SHE must answer the door. (I'm too scared) lol
I am expecting more "chewing out".

So we decide that she'll answer the door in her bikini and pretend like she's the maid. Floozie 2 was supposed to hang behind her and film the hilarity.

DING DONG.

Eva struts her 6 foot tall self over and opens the door. Floozie2 gets right up in the womans face with the camera. Making it quite obvious that she is being filmed.
The flower lady was too shocked to say diddly squat. :)





THIS is what they brought.

quite small , but MUCH better than the previous weeds.











Our plan had been to go to Olive Garden. Just because I was craving that Gorgonzola beef and all our restaurants in this town suck.

We go get ready. I even curled my hair. The humidity took care of that little idea in about 2 minutes it was limp noodles.

Eva's son Bubba got here around 7 , he would be joining us. He said "I just drove by Olive garden and there's a mile long line outside. So he calls there. "hour and a half wait for a table."

Crap! So he calls outback . "oh we can get you in around 8:00."Guess we're going to Outback.

On the way there Eva gets a bottle of wine. I have my little flask in my purse. (we're cheap ,OK)

Me"How are you going to open that?"

Eva ,proceeds to pull fancy corkscrew out of her purse.

Me" ha, you carry a wine opener around in your purse?"

Eva"It's called being prepared."

17 year old Bubba "yea, being prepared to be an alcoholic."

She opens the wine and manages to stuff the bottle into her purse. We arrive at Outback and are given our little disc. "Oh maybe half an hour longer for a table."

Lovely. We go outside and Eva makes Bubba take pictures of us. He is mortified. but does it.






We finally get a table. My steak is too well done .ACK!

But my baked sweet potato is great.It took us until 10:30 to finish dinner.

Oh, I love this town. heh.

NOT!



******************************************************************************
Yesterday I did absolutely nothing! It's 105 degrees. Literally too hot to go outside.
Today, I must clean my sty and may force myself to go out on the boat.


Happy Sunday Peeps!

Oh, P.S. I'll pimp MY friend too. LOL Like Brad did.(over at Waconda road)







She's 40ish , divorced and has no back hair
:)

All little of this ...a little of that....


Hi Y'all ,

Yep, once again I am wayyy behind on posting.
Everything has been either boring or annoying lately.


It has been scorching hot . 110 with the heat index. Then in the afternoons horrendous thunderstorms. The other day I was literally trapped at the grocery store. I stepped outside and waited ,with about 30 other people . Lighting was flashing all over the parking lot.Thunder was booming ,little kids were screaming in fear.And the water was about a foot deep ,up to the doors on some cars..







Safely inside the truck at last.






*****************************************************************************


Monday ,I got to go have my teeth cleaned. You know ...the deep cleaning where they chisel under your gums. The hygienist is this huge 7 foot tall old lady ,about 65 years old. She has a giant booming cackle to go with her persona. I tell her "they usually numb me to do this."

"They usually charge a hundred times more money for it too. You can take it." CACKLE CACKLE CACKLE!

I grip the arms of the chair in terror and make hideous pain faces ,contortions I didn't know my face was capable of making.

She proceeds to scrape the bones out of my face ,while she cackled and cackled.

Then she had to pry my white knuckled fingers off the arms of the chair so I could leave.
She CACKLED the whole time.

No wonder I put this off for the last 3 years!

**************************************************************************
I have wracked my brain about the possibility of leaving the cats with someone so I could just go to England. The very idea of them forgetting me or missing me, is totally heart breaking. Then , who could I trust anyway? I actually DO have one neighbor that I could trust with them. But then I try out the proposition in my mind.


" Um...hey neighbor, would you like to watch my cats for 5 months?You don't mind cats walking all over your counters and stove, right? Or petting themselves on your cooking utensils?
They're no trouble, really. Cavuto will wake you at 5 or 6 A.M. so you can go turn on the bathtub faucet . He refuses to drink any other way.Then him and Monkey will arrive in the kitchen for their whipped cream. They usually like a little cream in the evening too.It won't be any bother. they'll wait until you're all settled on the couch before Monkey begins her loud ,demanding, bitchy screaming. O'reilly ,why he's no trouble at all ...you don't mind cats jumping on your shoulder every time you bend over or use the toilet, right? He only leaves bloody gashes down your back or arms if he misses the jump and falls .If Cavuto is awake , he demands your constant attention. He is just so happy to be alive ,he likes to share the joy by having you carry him around like a baby.You'll also have to cut his nails. He hates it really ,but after he shreds you to pieces the first few times, it'll be gravy baby.You'll also need to baby proof your blinds every day when you open them ,because Cavuto gets hung in them sometimes. He's also prone to seizures when he is hanging upside down in blind cords. Oh yeah, and O'reilly does have that little vomiting problem. It's not vomit really, more like he just regurgitates chewed up cat food ,it won't even stain your carpet. If it's really vomit , you'll see him walking backwards in circles. He only does that when he chews on things he shouldn't ,like fake plants and pine needles .Oh, he also likes to play fetch around midnight. You'll know when he brings you a bread wrapper and starts flinging it around all over your bed.It's fun really, you'll learn to love it!
They also like to watch their "birdy" movie sometimes ,just set up a barstool for them in front of the t.v. ,you DO have a flat screen right? They prefer a flat screen."


Let's face it. I am so NOT going to England until the cats wait is OVER!
NOT HAPPENING!










And looks so innocent.
Big huge annoying little pain in the ass.






****************************************************************************
Yesterday was our anniversary. I'll be going out to dinner Friday night with my friend Eva to celebrate.




Happy anniversary my sexy man!

I love you!











Have a great day in your worlds. Laters me

Pacifier or prozac?

Happy Saturday Y'all,


I've been in my usual "everyone just left" depression crash. It seems like I've been very busy yet my house is still a sty from when the kids were here. I haven't seen the boat since everyone left. Ugh! The only thing I have accomplished without fail is my damn nap every day.



The other day I spent half the day at the dentists office. I'm trying to take care of all things medical and dental before England.For hours they could not verify our insurance, the little x-ray cardboards were giving me the dry heaves ,then I find out that I need 4 crowns and our lousy insurance will not cover them. So, another 3 grand on teeth or I can just let my face collapse.
Sa-weet!















I really hate to blog when I'm like this. So....let me see....what's good?


Poodles was supposed to have gotten married yesterday,I'm still waiting for word on that.
Floozie1's husband was moved to the hospice unit for 5 days to give her a break.Her and I were able to go have breakfast yesterday.Eva has 4 properties under contract ...which is a miracle right now.Proof that God is taking care of her. Naturally her ex is not paying the things he's supposed to be paying. (Big shock there....not!)
Nosey and G5 left yesterday for a cruise to the Cayman Islands. (I am soooo jealous I could spit!)
Floozie2 and lakefarmer left for a wedding in Illinois.Yours truly was left with the pool keys.
If any renters get rowdy at midnight "I" get to go throw them out and lock up the pool. Something I would be very reluctant to do.Shy, you know :)



My husband will be coming home in a few weeks ,taking a detour to Ohio first to see his siblings,then he'll be off to England.I am trying to be upbeat and "normal" about the whole thing ...but sometimes I feel like just bawling like a big spoiled baby.
Honestly.....I don't want to be left behind for 6 months. But...things don't go the way we want them to, just because we are big spoiled babies. Do they?














Monkey is screaming her head off and she's driving me crazy!!!!
There she is ..this little crumb of a cat with the biggest bossiest mouth you've ever heard.And giant Cavuto has a little sweet voice. Go figure.


Poodles just called me. They did get married. She won't be home to download her pictures until Sunday night. Ugh . I hate waiting .lol

I'll be back later to hopefully, report that I accomplished TONS of stuff.


Have a great day peeps!

Luv me

Awww.dude not cereal again...


"See anything good in there?"

"na' man, just cereal."

"Oh! dude! remember last time I ate cereal ,I barfed all over the whole house?"

"Word.That was so funny watching mom clean that up"





Happy Tuesday Y'all,

I sooooo have nothing to blog about.Well, I guess that's not really true.
Lets see, whats new?


My family has been gone for a week and I stillllll do not have my house or my laundry caught up. ack!


Why? you ask. Because I have been busy doing various secretarial/errand boy duties for my spouse.he finally got his work visa and should be headed for England soon. :(


I have been trying to find a house over there willing to accept 3 cats. One that isn't
A.old and hideous
B. beyond a cracker box
C. outrageously expensive


So far, no luck.My husband will be a bag man.he he ...a bag man in a suit.


We can't decide if we should take the little car or not either. Any of you ever shipped a car overseas?


When the kids were here they made me buy a coffee grinder and make whole bean coffee. When they made it ,it was delicious! Every time I make it myself, it tastes like crappy dish water. WTH?


As most of you know ,my friend Poodles is getting married to her (3 )baby daddy Friday.lol
Wish I could go . I stayed up 'til One A.M. last night looking for the perfect shoes. No easy task. They are either too tall (when one is 6 feet tall, they don't need 4 inch heels) or they're too ugly.
Who makes these ugly shoes and thinks any one other than my grandma would wear them??
Naturally ,Cavuto woke me up at the crack of dawn. So yeah, I had my 4 hours of sleep. Woo hoo!


I MUST get this house clean today. Last night I even dreamed about dirty houses with roaches.







"once she feels comfortable and safe , I'll go for her juggler."














Yesterday, I saw this enormous dog laying on the back of his tiny car.

(click on it to see it full sized)






You guys still awake? :)

Ok, I'm shuttin up with the boring. Have a wonderful day in your worlds!

Luv me

Beware ,my huge arm of doom....

Hi Y'all ,

I sooooo have nothing to blog about:)

I have spent the past week working on my 6 page list of house work.Somehow between cleaning out my husbands closet, detailing the boat and the truck,and trying to lift the washer (a little bit) so I could put carpet down.......my arm went out.

You know how you just move a certain way and BLAM! your back goes out?

Well, my upper arm "went out". It hurt like hell at first and I couldn't lift it up. Now, a couple days later, it is warm and stuck in the "pumped up" state.
I'm going around with one arm that looks like the frekin Terminator. Isn't that special?







Clean closet ...complete with requisite cat.


Have I mentioned that I'm pretty certain that my husband has more clothes than any man in the world?

I think it's true.







Cavuto immediately made himself a nest in the goodwill pile.
















Clean guest room!


















Clean house!!!












Clean living room!


WHY am I busting my ass like this?

My hubby and children are coming! Tuesday all my lil darlings will be here.


Note to children: Keep in mind how hard I have worked before you trash my house;)

Squash 2














Tomatoes (and stinkin underlining)


It would have been wayyyy easier to buy 50 dollars worth of squash and tomatoes.
