Yeah I should have probably waited until Anthony and Josh got out of school before I went to the store to pick up some stuff for Thanksgiving. Then I could have made them carry everything up the stairs.

ow! My back is killing me and the cut they made on my left side isn't feeling that great.
Funny how when the doctor said if everything looked okay they would only make 1 cut but if not they would have to make 3. I knew right then I'd wake up with three cuts and HEYYY see I'm right again! Okay I'm getting off track....

I said I wasn't going to be cooking Thanksgiving this year but last Friday Jamie came home with a turkey. He was most disapointed when I said I wasn't going to make dinner and said then he'd at least make the turkey. I. How in the world he thinks I'm going to eat turkey without everything that goes along with it soooo here we are.

Jamie is wonderful and will help the cooking. He will be tending the turkey while I'm sleeping.

Yesterday my sister and Mom came to visit, they spent the night and left about an hour after Anthony left for school.

We went to Marie Calander's yesterday and walking in I noticed.....


his first PIMPLE!!! HAHAHA!!!
Great that it was right on the tip of his nose too! I told him not to pop it and not to listen to Jamie because Jamie would want to pop it. He asked me why and I said it could mess up his skin.

We came home will stuffed bellies, Anthony called the left side of his Brain over a.k.a Josh and we played "Dancing with the Stars" I even busted out and played a couple of rounds even though I probably shouldn't have. Boy did I feel it after.

Soon as Mom and Brook came over I reminded them how lucky they where because they would be able to watch the FINALS on Dancing with the Stars. Brook actually seemed to think it was okay, don't think she'll be watching it like I do but she did vote for Kelly Osborn.

I think Donnie is going to win, I hope Mya gets 3rd place. That would be awesome.

Off to rest.
I think I might actually crochet today!

A friend at work brought in some yarn for us to make some blankets for the VA hosptial. Her VFW is collecting blankets to give out around Christmas. I thought I had taken a photo of Raquel's but I can't seem to find it.

Here is mine...

x-posted to my journal.

Gary's service is today and we can't even make it because of what happened. Doctor said I shouldn't be driving out of town like that "in case something happens" and as it stands Jamie says he's taking me back to the hosptial if the bleeding doesn't stop soon. I was so out of it when the doctor was talking to me about the spotting that I'm not sure if this is normal or not. I had lost so much blood they had to give me 2 units, after that they said my count was an 8, said that wasn't great but good enough to let me go home. The spotting does seem to be slowing down though so...I suppose that is good.

I'm happy my sister Brook was able to make it. They had to fly her off the ship as they where in the middle of the ocean when she got the call. I am sure she was happy to be getting off the ship but not under these conditions.

Off to bed, took my pain meds about 30 minutes ago. I hope they start working soon!

Well geeze if it's been a LONG time since I've updated. 

Phew!

Let's see, what's going on....hmmm. 
Jamie won 2nd and 3rd place trophies the night before Halloween.

(dork)
He would have won first place but one night he ran a race with the wrong transmitter (sp?) and so got a DQ for that race.  He was pretty happy but a bit upset with himself that such a little mistake cost him first place.  Aww he'll win his 1st place some day.  It's pretty cool he's won about 5 "Free Oil Change" tickets.  Should be awhile since we'll have to pay for one of those. 

I can't forget Halloween!!

Zombie Doctor & his Mobster friend. 

They made out like Bandits as it's said! 
I dressed up this halloween!  I went as the scariest thing I could think of!! 

A KNITTER!!!

BHAHBHA!!
I walked around with a ball of yarn and the knitting needles Vanessa gave me.  I was so proud of myself.  Violet saw me and said, "OH no YOU didn't!!"  She was thinking I learned how to knit, something I don't see happening unless my Aunt teaches me or snoopingmother both who are across the country. 
I explained to V that I was just in my costume, she just looked at me like I was crazy, something that I also take pride in because yeah I like people thinking I'm crazy.   Freaks rule the wrold I've always said!

I mentioned something about Buzzard hunting over on Facebook.  haha!  I should have known that my friends from High School would take it the wrong way.

Yes....
I know it's shocking to those of you who don't know but....yes....

I am ALSO a BUZZARD.

code name
"Vein"

*Sigh*

It was fun being a teenager and I enjoy the memories but I'm sooo happy that's over!

Happy November 5th!!

soapfaerie
I've been meaning to ask, did you see they have some new Boondock Saint's movie coming out? 

THEY BETTER NOT MESS IT UP!

for I was a cheerleader...

But LIKE

OH MY GWAD they are sooooo gonna kill off Victor Newman on my SOAP OPERA!!!

I've known for about a month now, they got it all over those soap opera magaizines you only seem ME reading while waiting in line at the store.  It's just mindblowing watching them lead up to the end.  This is historic in soap opera history as Eric Braden has been the main man on the show for like EVAR!

Something I am sure no one knows but me....

However he played the richest guy on the ship in "Titanic" We went and saw it at the movies and when he first turned around so you could see his face there where at least 4-5 other people (not including me of course) that yelled out "VICTOR NEWMAN!"  

So  yaaa!

They are letting him go because he wouldn't take a pay cut like the rest of the stars are having to do.  Whatever he's in his 70ies anyway.  Kinda of sad, "Guiding Light" was a soap opera back before they HAD tvs and that got cancelled.

Like
Whatevarrrr I should be getting ready for work.

Have I told you as of late how much I HATE BUZZARDS?

I love Thanksgiving.  I think a little more then I do Christmas because I loooove me some Turkey Dinner with all the fixings.  Stuffing, sweet potatoes all of it. I make this Cranberry Sauce with Apple Cider that is usually gone in two days unless I make two bags worth.

That all aside I am NOT going to fix it this year.  I'm not even going to mention it when starts to get close.  I am sure that Jamie will be disappointed but I really don't care.  I have lots to be thankfull of course but I don't need to make a dinner to show how much.  This year Anthony will be spending it with his dad's family so it would only be Jamie, The Buzzard and myself.  If it was a NORMAL year where Ant had to go with his Dad I'd fix it up and invite some friends over like we've done every year regardless if Anthony is here or not.  I am not thankfull that I've had this effing Buzzard living with us OVER A YEAR.  I was not impressed that he didn't even BOTHER to help clean up last Thanksgiving's mess.  If I go to someone's home and they feed me the LEAST I could do is offer to help clean up.  This is called MANNERS and I do believe most people do still try to show some manners.  I am not making Thanksgiving dinner because I HATE HIS LOSER BROTHER WHO WON'T LEAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

I was watching a stand-up comic last night.  Buzzard was in the kitchen and I'm SURE he could hear the TV.  The comic started talking about losers who are "Grown ass men who still live with their Mothers."  I wanted to laugh like a crazy person and found it rather hard not to.  Spent 3 minutes biting down on my lip and pretending I wasn't listening just so I wouldn't scream out.  "What about the ones who have mothers that WON'T let them move back because even their Mother knows what a idiot loser they are so they have to move across the country and live with their BROTHER's family?"  WHAT ABOUT THOSE PEOPLE?????

I know the answer to that.....those people are also LOSERS if not more of one because how sad is it your mom won't even let you move in?  PRETTY SAD if you ask me!!!

Vanessa doesn't believe me when I say I'm not cooking up Thanksgiving.  This is because I usually start talking about how much I can't wait to make another 4 legged Turkey 4 weeks before Thanksgiving.  Yes I love me some thanksgiving dinner but I can do without.  NEXT Thanksgiving the Buzzard should be GONE.

GONE!!!!

That year Thanksgiving dinner will be served with Champaine....oh yeah.

Let us hope that is how it goes next year.  For the sake of my mental health let us PRAY he will NOT BE HERE. 

When you see me talking to Bruce Willis over on FB that's me talking to JD in code. 

Sorry it took me so long to FINALLY get around to posting this....

First I got this package from Steph

I can't even TELL you how CUTE these bonnets are!  I was really blown alway by her skills, the patterns are amazing.


She also sent these which are I think are large enough to go to Violet for the Kurt Warner Foundation.  Violet will be most happy.

Next we got some stuff from Maurine, Queen of Knit.  I think this last batch she sent was fantastic.




I love that off-white and pink set at the top.  SO CUTE!

These two are going with Ultra-V for the Kurt Warner drive as I am pretty sure they are big enough.  Violet should be happy and surpised to see all the extra pretties next time she comes for a pick up.  She might wonder what's up with ME as I've been working (slowly) on a personal project.  I should be finished with that come Saturday.  I'll have to kick it in gear before V figures out what's going on and grabes a whip.

8

this is in case I forget and have to check on-line at work where I cannot sign in.

'cause I'm a dork like that. 

I don't think I will forget.

I'm here at home watching DWTS and slacking on Mafia Wars....yeaaaaa

not at the bus stop fighting off hobos who think I'm hot....can't blame um for that but regardless.

haha!

YAY!

I'm kinda sad that I won't be able to talk/walk with my friend Jess who loves to talk about football.  He was cool. I was trying to hook him up with Vanessa.

AWWW I suppose I should start geting ready for work eh?

because it didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out this was going to happen.

See since the beginning of summer The Buzzard will wake up and leave.  This is done for many reasons but top of the list would be because it keeps me happy.  Next on the list would be so that it would APPEAR he is out trying to find a life, by that I mean A JOB but that is not going to happen either unless Santa brings one. 

Buzzard leaves each day and goes over to our friend Brian's house.  Yeah Brian the guy I'm supposed to be making that baby gift for that Jamie keeps asking me about.....I keep telling him like the sun it will come tomorrow.

The world keeps spinning and the Buzzard is doing his thing pretty much living at Brian's during the day until late at night.  I said at some point this was going to start causing problems with Brian and his  pregant girlfriend.

Last night I heard him complaining to Jamie about some stuff going on over there.  How they use him to take them to work and run errands but don't really pay him anything for gas.  I bet they  see it as "WTF he pretty much lives here and pays no rent!"

Yes I knew at some point something like this would happen.  I believe this to be only the beginning, just like when I started to crack 2.5 months into him being here and NOT LOOKING FOR A JOB *total body SPAZZZ*

Buzzard was talking about how he hopes he will have a job by the end of the month and off unemployment.  He said he would be "Happy not to go there again." meaning on unemployment.

Yeah right!

 

Now to finish this baby hat for Brian.....let's see if I can get it done tonight before I DRIVE into work.
Yay!

I figured out what this is...


You give it to someone who your afraid might drop the baby.....I mean I didn't make up that saying "Did you get dropped on your head as a baby?"
Someone who got dropped on their head as a baby made this pattern up.

Violet and I pledge 40 to the Kurt Warner Foundation.

Bhaha!  Yeah right, come on now!
I told Jamie I was going to make one for Brian's baby.

Now you know if I really do that you should call the Yarn Police and have me punished for yarn abuse, not to mention assnoopingmothersaid child abuse. 


Jamie is kicking me off the computer now....I got some hooking too do but PHOTOS to post later!

getting the car all good to go. 

Poor car.  Went from living in RICH Fountain HIlls to Getto Mesa!

These where some of the homes in our cars old neighborhood...

CRAZY homes out there in Richville I tell ya!  Look they even have DESERT views!  It's been so long since I've seen desert.  I used to see it every day in Ajo.  *sigh*
I don't know what I do with a house that big but I know that one of those rooms would be packed FULL of yarn!

This house was right across the street from the guy who we bought the car from. 

Jamie's "I love what you do for me Toyota!" pose.  This guy's driveway was so freaking steep the photo doesn't even do it justice.   He designs planes for a living. 

YAY!
It's still parked at the guys home because our license plate was stolen so we couldn't drive it home.  We'll have to go to the MVD tomorrow and take care of all the paperwork then go pick it up.  YAY I won't have to ride the bus into work on Tuesday night!

Violet came over the other and she informed me that I was going to be her slave for 6 months and she "didn't hear any bitching" from me.

I laughed and said okay but couldn't promise not to bitch.  It wouldn't be because I was having to crochet for the Kurt Warner thing, I'm saying I'd be complaining to MYSELF because I should know better and be crocheting and not PLAYING those Facebook games!

haha!

Ultra-V then told me the lady was really really wanting 1 baby blanket and 1 outfit for 1 baby.  I gave her the 8 blankets both of us knowing that including what Violet made, the 8 blankets and whatever the other nurses Violet has hookin for her over at the hospital that we'll be turning in much more then she thought we would. 

I told Violet to make sure that lady knows if she wants it to be 1 blanket and 1 outfit for 1 baby then she needs to bust out at least 2 rolls of yarn for each entire set.  Good ol' Violet said she was already planning on that.  

And OHHH she was mad because there where about 3 sets she gave me and I THOUGHT I had taken photos of them but no, we looked back on the entries and nothing.  I was just sure I had taken some pictures, I can see it in my head even.  I'm thinking I should check the computer we swiched out and is in Ant's room.  I bet it's on there.   If not that sucks cause that was 9 for the count and they went to out to JD already.....oh I gotta e-mail him today & see what's up with that. 

You see the evils of these facebook games!!  I have packages that came in the mail after I sent "the package" to JD that I opened and squeeled "OHHH HOWWW SWEEET!!"  Think to myself I have to take a photo of them but the thought of everything envoled in that is just to much to do.  I say I'll wait until I have a lot to post but I already have a lot to post!  I also tell myself that once I get back on the preemie outfits again I'll take photos if only because the preemie stuff starts building and building and I HAVE to take photos just so I can pack the ready to go stuff in boxes or bags and place them some place safe.  I have to  place them all in boxes then cover the boxes with bags because of Pumbaa.

She doesn't mess with my yarn unless I'm using an end to tease into playing with me.  I'm more worried how it is with stuff like under the bed or deep back in the closet where you hardly ever look.  How they throw up in places they know you won't find until 6 months later.  If that EVER happend just a roll of yarn....well I just don't even know what I'd do.  Let alone if it was a finished outfit or worse...it would be 100% worse if she threw up on something someone sent me!  I might go into a coma for 2 days, who knows! 

That's why I got it looking like a yarn bomb went off zip-lock bags full of preemie stuff inside boxes, covered with plastic bags inside  reuseable bags all in my living room safe under a couch table!!  *TWITCH*   

I used to have a closet to put that all in many many moons ago but now it's full of Buzzard poo. 

I get tired to think of it. 

If I didn't have to turn this into Violet right away....

I wouldn't even have take a photo of this one.  This was the last of the 8 I got done for the first Kurt Warner thing.  The lady was supposed to go pick them up from Violet at the hospital yesterday. 

Thank you soapfaerie for my most wonderful user pic!  HAHHA!!  I LOVE it!
