STINKY JOHN JONES

Seriously, a month?

Really?  My last post was 12/02/09? 

Wow! 

To my defense, I was sick for just about 3 weeks of that time with the flu.  Yup.  3 weeks, 2 of which I literally spent in bed and the other on the couch.  It sucked.  And right before Christmas, without any shopping done.  Lucky for Amazon. 

So what's going on in the internet world, peeps?  Clue me in on the happenings.  I have been living vicariously through my iPod touch cruising the net on that tiny screen since it could be done from bed.  And the laptop completely pisses me off to the point that I could literally throw it out an open window. 

Other than that, not much to tell here.  Or there could have been, but I have been in my own world of sickness and didn't care.  

I did get some shots of Christmas though......and maybe some randomness thrown in to boot....

Chachi and her "favorite" gifts.  Can you believe that!  Santa could have saved a ton of money!

 

Stink opening his DSi....Mommy's "favorite" gift.  I swear....I haven't seen this child in days!  Santa must have surely gotten my wish list :)

 

Chachi and her DSi....although she doesn't get so "lost" in gaming!   I mean, she is too busy watching her movies :)

 

How little chubby man, Chili, spent Christmas morning!

 

And his "big" baby brother...

 

Snow!  Snow!  The only shot I could get from the window.  Didn't think I was going out in THAT did you!

 

Whoda thunk that she actually has a decent bed to sleep in!

 

My favorite!  It's like this dog can read my mind.  Now if he could only hold him like that and give his little tushy a pinch at the same time! 

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree......you don't contain anything breakable.

Let's not let a month go by next time, eh. 

Happy Holidays from our house to yours!!!!

Ho Ho HO!

Consequences of Misorganization

Just a few.....

A couple weeks ago Chachi came home from school with a project.....to "dress" a paper turkey.  I filed the due date away in my mind, Wednesday, and moved on. 
Come Tuesday, I reminded Chachi that we needed to finish her Turkey.  I happened to do this in front of her teacher when I picked her up at school.  And that evening, that's just what we did.  Only, after a second glance at the instructions, I noticed the due date. 
Apparently, we were a week late. 
I sent it in anyway. 
What's worse?  Chachi was so excited that HER turkey was hung on the wall with the others. 
Oops.  

This weekend was prepare for the holidays time.  Lights up, tree up, house cleaned and moved around to make room, etc.  While cleaning the living room, hubby decided to put our "extra" DVD player in Chachi's room, since her's suddenly stopped working.  After some fumbling with wires, moving her dresser out, finding an extentsion cord, etc we finally got it working.  Only, when the door to the player opened, hubby yelled out....
"Isn't this the Netflix movie you lost 6 months ago?" he exclaimed swinging around the disc on his pointer finger.
"What?!"
And there it was in all it's glory.  The reason why we have been down to one movie rental for months. 
Whoda thought to look in the actual DVD player? 

And finally, a picture story (and I didn't do it).....

One side of our house.....ignore the crooked light.....

Aren't the lights nice?  Hubby worked feverishly over the weekend to get them up.  Before his TV time. 

Now that you know how "fast" he was working, take a second look. 

Notice anything strange?  Besides the crooked light!

Here....I will give you a closer look.....

Ding Ding Ding Ding.  That's right!  He left the light packaging on the roof.  

And I took these just now.  Exactly 3 days and 6.5 hours later. 
At this rate, he might as well leave them there to make taking them down that much easier. 

And that's my life.  Crooked light and all. 
Oh, did I mention the bulb in that light has been out for months.  And did I mention that the photo-cell on that light has been broke for even longer.  And did I mention that I actually have a tiny flashlight on my keychain so I can see to get in the door.
