Things

Thing 1:

Remind me not to let Boyfriend take leftovers home anymore...

exhibit a showing here:



That pizza? I had him take it home to take to work...and by the time I finally threw it away? It was probably 2 months old...or something to that effect

Gross

Thing Beta:

Remind me to look at more than just the color of the sock before I go to work...

exhibit b showing here:


I didn't even notice until I got home from work and was taking them off...

That is all, thank you for listening...or reading really, as the case may be

Dear...


Dear Friends,

I utterly destroyed my shin tonight...I felt like it broke into a bajillion pieces....

Mama Smurf and I have been emptying rooms so that she could shampoo the carpets, and I have an end table that we moved right outside my bathroom door...so tonight I was leaving my room and lights were off and BAM!! I smacked it full force into the table


That's where it pierced...ouchy...

Dear Table,

Please be nicer in the future...

Dear Mama Smurf, 

Thanks for moving the table

Dear Leg, 

Please forgive me...

Dear Friends part 2, 

Boyfriend loves me

Want to see how much?

I thought so


For some reason...it won't post right side up, no matter how many times I tell it too...

Anyway, isn't it so cute?? This girl he works with was making one so he asked her to make me one too :D

I loves it!!

Dear Boyfriend, 

Thank you muy mucho. I love it!!

Dear Puzzle, 

You are hard. Love, Me

Dear Friends part 3,

Have you forgotten about my puzzle? I would like to some days...


Again, posting crooked...rude. Anyway, obviously I haven't been able to get very far...I've decided I'm doing the MOST difficult part of the puzzle at this moment...and it's really difficult...

Dear Nieces,

In the future, please don't play with finger nail polish...I know how tempting it is, but PLEASE try to refrain...

Dear Me,

In the future, when said nieces are sent downstairs to play, please remember that you had said nail polish out to throw away the old ones...and go put them away and lock them up?

Dear Mama Smurf,

Sowwy...



*sigh* Bad day...

Dear Boyfriend,

I'm coming, I'm coming....

Night!!

Don't die of shock...

I know, I know...two posts in a row!!


Please don't die of shock, I think I would have a hard time performing CPR through the computer...


Anyway, it's not going to be a long post by any means, I still have letters to do tonight...I just saw this video and it cracked me up!! 


If you've already seen it, watch it again. It'll be good for you. ;)


p.s. there will be an ad first, and then the movie :)

I think that must have been me growing up...and I think it is still me...at least mentally anyway...whenever anyone mentions chocolate it's like a little bee starts going berserk in my head...hmm, something's wrong there!! Good thing I don't have the energy or the agility to do that!! I think people would be disturbed if they saw an almost 26 year old climbing up a wall to get candy...only with me it would be for chocolate.

Another story

Remember that one time I told you about my primo and our convo at work about bathrooms?

If not, that's okay...I'll forgive you ;)

If you want to refresh yourself, click here 

Well, there's a part two of the story now


Ever since then, Primo (cousin) has decided to make a "game" of sorts out of moving the door stopper


Or maybe he really was just annoyed by it so much that he had to move it as far away as possible so that I wouldn't "see" it...when really all that did to serve was annoy me because it meant I had to go all the way out of my way...a whole 10 inches...to bend down and pick it up and prop the door open again, and if he would just nudge it out of the way with his foot, it would only require me to nudge it back with my foot!! So much easier!!


But every time I went to use the restroom, it had been moved back a little more


Exhibit A:




(this is where you be nice and ignore the lighting...I was too tired to fix it)


See the soap bottle all the way over in the "shower stall"? That's the furthest it ever got


During the week it was at every interval you can imagine between the heat vent and where it is shown in that picture


I kept picking it back up and propping open the door...and he would keep moving it back


You would think he would get tired of all of the moving and bending over and picking up and all that jazz...but I guess he had a point to prove


Anyway, it didn't really matter to me because I would just prove my point right back!! :)


Until one day...


I walked in, closed the door, and looked around...the soap was nowhere to be found!!


So when I left I looked again and still couldn't find it


This cousin of mine, he's a punk!!


I looked everywhere I thought it could be and finally it hit me that there was one place I hadn't looked


Up!!




There's this cupboard right outside the bathroom door, and there's a little ledge above it and sitting right on that ledge were both of the bottles...even the one we had been using to refill the soap




(this is where you're nice and ignore the poor quality...I was hurrying because I didn't want him to see me take the picture...I didn't want him to think I was getting enjoyment out of it or anything)


That cousin of mine...he was going to all lengths to make sure that door stayed shut!!


So, because I'm a brat and wasn't going to give in that easy, I grabbed the random paint can that was in the "shower" and used that


Lo and behold, the next time I went into the bathroom that was missing too


Grrr....


All of this was happening while Peach was in Mexico


When she got home I whined and complained cheerfully filled her in on all that had happened with the big, bad Primo


She told me that when she got to work she would take care of it


The very next day, she put the soap bottle back in the bathroom, and even closed the heat vent so it wouldn't heat up the bathroom if he did choose to be a stinker about it!!


Moral of the story? I'll keep my older sisters around if only so they can put cousins in their place because he obviously doesn't care what the Baby Sister does!!

Looks like I need to brush the dust off my blog...


Dear Friends, 


It's been a ridiculous week. I mean it. Ridiculous


Dear Friends part 2,


I have so many stories...I really hope I can remember them all


Dear Back,


I realize that I'm getting older...I realize that you don't like the line of work I do...but could you please toughen up for another year? I would appreciate it


Dear Boyfriend,


Thank you for the back rubs...and the much needed supply of caffeine and food today...I appreciate it


Dear New Niece aka Baby Plattington aka Emily


I am SOOOO excited to meet you you have NO idea!! :D


Dear Work,


I don't think I'm ready for you to get busy. I'm not mentally prepared yet...please please please wait? For just a little while longer?


Dear Spring,

That means you need to hold off a little longer...



Dear Friends part 3,


You can't hate me for that statement. If you were in my line of work, you would cringe a little when Spring was poking it's head out of the ground too


Dear Flat Filler Machine (aka Fluffy) at Work,


You chose a bad time to break down, but at the same time...you chose a great time to break down. Thank you


Dear Caffeine, 


Thank you for helping me function today


Dear Friends part 4, 


You will probably be seeing me less than normal...at least in the writing sense of the word. Work is going to start getting crazy and a lot of extra hours are going to have to be put in. But I do still love you


Dear Friends part 5, 


No worries, I'll come catch up on your blogs...I wouldn't miss out on that


Dear Friends part 6,


Have a good night!!


Night!!

The real unveiling

Okay, I'm back :) 

Sorry about that...but I had to sleep to be able to function at work :)

And now, for the pictures!!

Are you so excited?? 

It's an exciting thing, so if you need to get comfortable, grab a drink of ______, a blanket, whatever you need, I'll allow you to. I can wait 

la la la

So, first things first, the chair:


Soooooooohohohohohooho much better than a folding chair

The tower holder:


I've been wanting that bookshelf for I don't know how long...and I finally got it :)

And, for the grand finale, the desk:


*sigh* Isn't it beautiful??

We got it all at Ikea (my new vice) and my goal was to not pay more than $200

I had a little bit of tax returns left over after paying off a loan and used that to pay for it

(don't tell Papa Smurf...he might kill me if he found out)

I was really proud because with all 3 of those things, plus a little whisk I bought my mom and a dustpan and broom for me at work, my total came to $198.40 (give or take on the cents)

I love when that happens!!

And for a good look at how all of them look together:


It was like going from living in a rat infested sewer to living in a beautiful, immaculate mansion...that's how amazing it is

Seriously, I could never go back to this


It makes me shudder just to think about it

It took a little bit of effort to get all the parts together




But, with Boyfriend's help, we got it all put together by midnight which was very happy indeed :)


I was going to do this in Dear.... letters, and I just realized I didn't...hopefully Ms. Dazee will forgive me :)


Anywho, I hope you had a fabulous day and have an amazing night...I must go get ready for bed :)


Night!!
