Not to be confused with the Wine Company (which I have yet to try)

I never thought I would be a blogger but I'm glad I tried it out. It took sometime to get used to it and now I can't stop. This is about the day to day excitements of being a mom, wife, daughter, friend, or just a plain woman doing her thing.

I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving since half of us won't be here tomorrow ... aka me :)Drinks

Hope everyone has a safe, baby-making, face-stuffing, family gathering, wishing for no drama (from friends and/or family), head in the oven and turkey, beating the Black Friday crowds, no emergency room because the turkey didn't want to be fried... Holiday! (I'm pretty sure there are more stuff that I can describe but can think of any)

While searching the net for a funny Thanksgiving picture I found this:

Roasted Turkey Pringles??

Well we were supposed to have people over tomorrow, but not so much anymore. For some reason we get invited to parties but when it comes to hosting our own party everyone else has plans, etc. Oh well, who needs them any-who, the 3 of us & the dogs can have our own party.

But for some miracle people come over, they have to bring their own food because last minute calls were a week ago when I did grocery shopping.


The Avon business is slowly going. Still not sure if I'll stick with it come the New Year. I mean I still have orders coming in, but actually making it my full/part-time job...a little iffy on it.

Looking back now yesterday was pretty funny, but at that moment I was running around like a headless chicken. I was busy doing my thing and Hayden was watching his shows on T.V. and doing his thing. Well, he stopped doing his thing and went into the kitchen. Note, that our alarm system isn't connected to a phone line yet, but it beeps when you open the doors. Well Hayden had got on top of the laundry basket, since I was doing laundry, and he started pushing buttons on our keypad. First thing I hear is an alarm going off, at first I thought I was the neighbors since this neighborhood all has the same alarm. Then I hear screaming coming from the kitchen, not only did it scare him but he knew he was in trouble.
I spend 25 minutes searching for the code, that is still missing by the way, to shut the alarm off. It finally shut off by itself, but I was running around the house searching all the places where it could be, calling Spencer asking him if he knows it, telling him to call our Real Estate person and see if she still has it. But no luck.
But don't have to worry. Hayden won't be touching it anytime soon. And by the time he should want to touch it, we should have found out what it is, or changed it.

This morning I had to call the Dr's Office and reschedule my appointment since Spencer wouldn't have been able to come get me. So I call, and the nurse asked why I was canceling it. I told her, and before I got off the phone with her she has the nerve to say, "Make sure you get the car next time, so you don't have to cancel".
Mind your own business lady. You don't control my life, you don't know me. Unless you want to give me a car to use, shut your mouth. I wish I had gotten her name, but Hayden was screaming and it was early.

Quick Update

Well, October SUCKED!!!
As you can see from my previous post, my brother died.

And Halloween basically sucked. For some stupid reason the county we are in decided to celebrate Halloween the day before, since Halloween fell on a Sunday and thought that it was sacrilegious. Whatever, they don't even know the true meaning of Halloween then. (Before you start changing the holidays, do your research!) Anyways, Halloween was a bust because this house celebrated it on Sunday, the day that it was supposed to be on. Hayden still had a blast but everyone's light was off, and we have mountains of candy since no kids came. And since some of our friends felt the same way they didn't come over so I had extra punch made.

Yesterday my mom's co-worker/friend died & Spencer's grandmother died.

Can we have happiness & joyful experiences now?!?!


But on another note, besides of all the crap, the Texas visit was nice. We will be returning to Texas in December for Christmas. Driving this time tho. We just don't have the money for another 3 plane tickets. We will also be taking the dogs with us too. Know they will be glad for some travel too!

It's getting colder outside. I think it started getting colder here a couple days before Halloween (Sunday). I'm def. going outside with a long sleeve shirt if not also with a sweater/jacket, also putting those closed toe shoes on too.
