Hey, is this thing on?

Heh. Yeah. So. um. Hi! Remember me? I’m still alive, so ya’ll can quit worrying and stuff. And don’t tell me ya weren’t worrying because well, I know i’m the center of the universe so you’d have to. Yeah. Heh.

Ego firmly in check. Whoot!

Anyway, things are still the same about here. The Asshole’s hours were cut, I’m panicing, they’re enjoying the summer, running off in the bus for some big trips down to homer and other exciting places

leaving me here at home to enjoy the silence…..

Though sometimes, now when everyone is home, I get the oddest feeling I’m being watched..

And then! Horror of horrors, the Girl turned 11 years old! *SOB* and if that’s not bad enough, I had to register her for MIDDLE SCHOOL today! ACK! That means I have TWO kids in middle school this year! TWO! can you IMAGINE?

Then, concering the girls birthday, all she wanted was a clarinet. I had gotten a line on a rent to own place, and was told all I had to do was pick it up and sign the papers. I asked three times if that was all, and they said yes. Two days before her birthday I went in and they said “oh. you have to have a credit card.” Uh. I don’t HAVE a credit card!

I was in a panic, and when the Asshole called from work that night, he was then in a panic and I was all but in tears and it was HORRIBLE… and then, the Asshole reminded me once again why I married him. HE worked a deal with a co-worker up there, and we ordered her a BRAND NEW clarinet from a place this guy had worked with for a long time, and he bought it on his credit card.

And it didn’t cost me a dime. How? The asshole, who introduces his weapons before he introduces me, traded one of his more expensive guns, straight across to this guy for the Clarinet. HIs guns are like his babys – but as he put it “That baby didn’t want to learn clarinet!”

So the result of all this? aside from tears and relief and remembering that the asshole can be an ok guy? This:

Lookit that grin. It just don’t get better then that.

So – how’s things with you all?

Heh. Slackers are us!

Yes. I know. I’ve been slacking about here forEVER. Part of it was that my server moved my site to another maching, and I’ve had nothing but problems with the database since. However! I think that’s finally taken care of, so we’ll do a massive month (…or two) catch up. heh. — Little League is […]

Shark Tales and Famous People.

So. You see, when we bought the Shark Tales movie on DVD, I told the kids “I know someone who works for Dreamworks, and worked on SharkTales.” and they, because they are my kids and realize I rarely ever leave the house unless it’s to shuttle them around, poopoohed the idea and assumed mom was […]

Busy busy weeks! [Caution! many, many pictures!]

Well, things have been majorly busy here in Lessa land, which of course is par for the course here during may and june what with the Month of the Field Trips, birthdays, and Little League. And of course, there are pictures! Like you thought otherwise. HAHA! So, last week was the pup’s birthday, and on […]

6 years ago today….

almost 7 years ago, I was surprised – shocked even – to find out that not only was I pregnant after a year of trying (or not trying not to be) but that I was already 7.5 weeks along, and had passed my “danger zone” without even knowing it. Everyone else, apparently knew it, but […]
