Merry Christmas!!

This was our tree this year. Most of the decorations were stuff the kids made.


This is what was found under our tree this year!!
Maybe not under the tree, but in it.

This year, the holiday's brought heartache for some people. My brother's friend and her family lost a loved one. Her step-dad suffered a devastating stroke a few days before Christmas and yesterday, Dec 26 he passed away. Today is her birthday. Double whammy if you ask me. RIP friend's step-dad you will be missed by many and loved by more.
I hope the holiday brought your family joy. I know it brought our family joy. Will share a funny about the holiday tomorrow. I must get back to work today.

Pondering.......

Our lovely department had a smashing party at this fancy mansion. The department however will not pay for alcohol (they are in the health profession ya know). Said bosses (doctors) decided alcohol was more important then the Xmas checks they have given in the past. Some of us do not drink for reasons known as well as unknown. Our department drank $3500.00 worth of alcohol and we didn't get our fat Xmas check. Nice huh? Guess they (doctors) are in the business to keep the patients coming. Hope they enjoyed their kid made cookies from us. (Should have licked them all first in exchange for the "alcohol" bonus).

Pondering a problem that has been on my mind.

If you had a friend (guy) who was dating someone serious (gf) and they just out of the blue split up. An old friend (girl) asked about (guy) and (gf) splitting up. (Girl) said she was surprised they lasted this long considering (gf) was a lesbian and all. My mouth fell. How does (girl) know about (gf's) sex life? (Gf) apparently made a pass at (girl) when all 3 were pretty smashed at my wedding in 2005. On (gf) my space, there is a bunch of rainbow stuff and such (fine and dandy) only when asked, she said it was to throw her family and make them quit bugging her about boyfriend and settling down. Not that it really is any of my business, but it kills me that she took (guy) for a ride per say and led him to believe there was a relationship. Apparently, while my creepy photographer was following around (girl), (gf) was hitting on her. Making suggestions about them getting together for after wedding festivities with the 3 of them. That is every man's dream and all, but he seems really blindsided about the whole "rumors".

Hell if you are not happy, by all means, your happiness lies in your own hands...make yourself happy. Just don't do it at the expense of others.

Guy if you are reading this, just know that no one will judge you for the choice (gf) has made. Hold your head high.


Pondering sucks and well lets face it, I have woken up 4 days in a row with a friggin migraine since having this conversation. Ugg.

Happy holidays!

Care to move? Again?

As with many of the mid-west states, our state got hammered with snow Saturday and Sunday. The weather forecaster's have been crying wolf the last 2-3 weeks about snow. When most states already got snow, this was the first real snow here. They started predicting it Thursday and again Friday. PIA dropped the girls off in brand new gym shoes and missing the hats and gloves. Never mind the girls were going to day camp all day Saturday in marsh land (camp is built on marsh land). Mother of the year? The reason they didn't have these essential items in December with a snow storm coming you ask? THEY HAVE MOVED YET AGAIN!!! She begged me to ask Superdaddy to help her move the big furniture. Pardon me? You want me to ask him to do you a favor? She didn't ask him until Sunday when she needed someone. According to Miss M, they have to move again because mom didn't pay the rent and they were making them move out. TMI for a 6 year old if you ask me. The last 3 years, the kids have had to move right before or right after the Xmas holiday. They didn't have a tree last year and have yet to get one this year.

I ventured out this weekend and took the kids to the dreaded dollar store; handed them a hand basket and a list and turned them loose. They did well and got something for everyone on their list for a grand total of $128.42. Bubba is the last one to take shopping. We spent a great deal Saturday night on the living room floor with tape, scissors, and paper and had the kids wrap their goods. Not the prettiest outcome, but definitely well worth the effort. The girls were very pleased.

Hang in there bro. Every day is a new day. Wish you were here.

F.E.D.E.X.....SUCKS!!!!

I will never use them again. What the hell makes them think that delivering at 9 am on Monday and then again 9 am Tuesday someone would be home. Make arrangements to have them deliver on Thursday. They fuggin show up on Wednesday. Final attempt no one was home of course because it was not Thursday. I called them last night...bimbo on phone said that because I made arrangements they would deliver today. THEY WILL NOT DELIVER TODAY BECAUSE FINAL ATTEMPT CAME YESTERDAY!!! They are returning my package tomorrow if I do not pick it up before end of day tomorrow. BS THAT IS WHAT IT IS!!!

Topic: PIA and money

Why is it that PIA seems to think I am the FOC bank keeper? She calls at the butt crack of day and asks about scouts then proceeds to grill me on FOC payments. She wants and needs money and she is afraid FOC will take superdaddy back to court if he isn't paying. If the bimbo waits her 2 weeks, she gets her damn check. She calls FOC everyday and they will get tired of it and take superdaddy back to court. PIA would rather have him sit and do 30 days in county jail then wait for money. PIA needs to get off her fat seat and get a damn job. I don't have a problem with paying FOC by any means. Hell love alone will not raise a child her child support is her sole paycheck. Figure that one out.

Who wants to make a wager that the sherriff will be at my door within the next 90 days to lock someone up?

Hey brother, when life hands you lemons, make Mik-es Lemonade. Hang in there. Lovesyoumuch!

Weekend blahs!

Sick and tired already of all the crap that comes with this time of year.

I am not talking about holiday stuff...I am talking about germs and bugs stuff. If I can please have just one whole week where I don't have to take care of a sick kid. This weekend was great. Heck I went shopping, I finished making some gifts, a friend and I were Baking with the girls. Then...BAM!!! Yesterday Chicky had Lower GI issues and of course, Miss J had upper GI projectile issues, followed closely by our dog who also had projectile issues. Going to work with about 2 hours of sleep just sucks.

Part of me wants the holidays to hurry up and come, but then part of me wants it to be next month some time.
