Merry Christmas (belated) (and somewhat hawaiian)

You can tell they all truly enjoy singing, and he knows it. Every one of them bring it, which infects the others.


I've been playing a lot of pogo lately. It's a pretty fun site for games with a fee of about $40.00 per year. I don't pay for extra gems or tokens. I have my mini, and a little over 2,000,000 tokens, and 370 gems.

Smeezy compared to others on pogo.

Yikes. <<<<I wanted to say 'Fu-u-u-u-c-k' there, but held back.


Ava and Stark burp out loud like pirates. Never had a dog do that before in my whole life. Was hilarious the first couple years. Now the fartin' has overtaken. I get woke up in the middle of the night when one of them farts. It's wakes me up! First I dream of my nostrils starting on fire.....than I wake up and realize it's a dawg fart! I'm being gassed out! The dreams associated with these farts are really nightmares! It's never good! I'm serious. I dream of noxious gases, then I wake up and one of them is laying right next to the couch and they've farted and the smell is atrocious! OMG! I need a bambulance! SOMEONE CALL 911!

 The funny thing is, is that when it wakes me up, they know they did it and proceed to look somewhat contrite.

Picture this.

You're sleeping. Pretty good too, mind you.


A dream starts. Fire. Burning buildings. Stuck in a Funhouse with poop smell enveloping you. Stranded amidst a field of burning tires. Your eyes water. Your nose falls off. Your eyes water more. You get the idea.

You wake up.

Dog.

Is under you. On the floor. Sleeping soundly.

Dog hears you wake up.

You look at dog like, "Jesus fucking Christ!!!!?"

Dog's head lifts. Eyes lock. Dog gives that "look at me, I'm adorable, and I'd never do this to 'hurt you' look",

 "plus..... you gave me beans."

I did not! I gave you ham! That's it! Daddy gave you chicken strips and Beer Nuts. Don't even go there.

Dogs! Can live with them and can't live without them.

The other night I was watching a Seinfeld episode where George gets grapefruit juice in his eye and then his eye wouldn't stop winking. I decided a grapefruit sounded good so I get one from the fridge.
I was peeling it and it squirted right in my eye. Ironic. I even wear glasses.
 Did you know that Jason Alexander didn't wear glasses but when he tried out for the part of George he brought a pair, and it worked!

For Christmas dinner I cooked a bone in ham. They are sooo much better than spiral, more moist. It's the bone, The bone! I tell ya!! Red beans and rice (NO! I didn't give any to the dogs!), small round white potatoes with garlic and parsley, green bean casserole with mushrooms and Hawaiian rolls.

I know (updated 12-25-14)

I suck. Jeff says, "I wish."

uh huh.

Been a while since I've been here.

Again, not in the mood to write.

Is that okay?

Gonna have to be, aint it?

Let's see....what's happened?

Sisi's been spayed and declawed on all 4 feet.

Secret Santa is over at work.

I turned 52 yesterday.

We had Xmas for Jeff's family. We came home with a cool handmade wooden end table for the basement. His step sister's son made it. I think I am going to stain it, or paint it, but it is pretty cool unfinished.

I'm going to be taking care of two big guinea pigs and two dwarf hamsters....CAN"T WAIT!
Me loves me some rodents!!
Our niece will be out of town and I get to take care of their GPs and hamsters. We went over there the other day and she put the hamsters in those balls so they can run around the house. OMG! They FLEW all over the house! So CUTE! Okay they didn't FLY....but I'll be damned if they didn't roll all over super fast! It was a hoot! I so love animals. Any kind. Did I post that we have our pond fish in the basement in a garbage can? I don't remember if I posted that or not. I tap on their can twice a day and they know they are going to be fed. They know! They all float to the top, waiting for the flake food to be dropped. Isn't animal life wonderful? I truly believe that.
Should I tell you about my secret santa?

Okay. 

The first day I got some Jalapeno Combos (new addiction that I do not need considering I will be going to the doctor in a month-bah!) and a Splat. A Splat is a plastic ball/animal/shape that kids slam onto the floor or a table and it spreads out real fast when it hits then springs back into shape. My Splat is a mouse.

Here's what I mean:

 

 

 

 

The second day I got two new year's eve blow horns. And silly string. I LOVE silly string. And one gift card.

The third day I got a plastic animal print bracelet (too small)  and a pair of spider earrings and 4 gift cards.
The fourth day IU got a pretty peacock feather and a Pier 1 gift card.

The last day I got a beautiful peacock candle and a teal tea light lantern. I collect those. yeah!

All gift cards were blank. I mean no money on them. It seems like they (my secret santa) stole all the cards. oKay I guess it's not stealing when you go in and take a gift card off the shelf. I'm going to have to beat him within an inch of his life. He won't know how to react. LOL!

Yeah, the SS was one of my attorney bosses.

Fucker. LOL!!
Give me gift cards that have no balance. You suck. Hahahahaha! Super great gag gift. I'm going to have to try it. Ha!


I have plans.

That's all I'm sayin....

I'm thinking so much that my leg is going to sleep. I feel ants in it. I'm dying, aint I?


dDDddying......

OKay

I have to write that our dawgs are the brightest things in our lives. They're funny, dorky, smart and protective.

I just opened up a package of beef jerky and they know the sound of the plastic. I can never eat beef jerky without having to share. They love it. So here I am, perusing ebay and decided to eat some of the sweet and hot jerky from the package sitting on the comp desk. I thought I was being sneaky. I opened it silently............ slowly............ and stealthed. I ate a piece then looked behind me and see two faces with really big ears and noses looking my way.

Busted!

LOL!


It's not that I don't want to share, I always do, even if they hadn't caught on I would have tossed them both several pieces. I just wanted to see if I could get away with it. Obviously not. LOL

Today I watched the movie The Christmas Shepherd. I cried almost all the way through it. It's about a male German Shepherd that gets scared by a thunderstorm and escapes from the yard and gets lost. He finally gets rescued by a father and daughter that lost their wife/mom a couple years ago. The woman owner finally tracks down her shepherd and it ends with her and the man together. So corny, but such a nice story how this shepherd brought them together intentionally and unintentionally in various ways.

One of the issues in the movie was that the new owners-the man and daughter- had legal ownership of the dog, even though it lived the first 5 years of it's life with the woman, and they only had the dog two weeks.  Really? Just because her dog got lost, they owned it when it was found? I just don't get that. No one would keep me from taking my dawg back. I have them chipped and there's lots and lots of pictures. Plus once they encountered this menopausal woman they'd be begging me to take my dawg back. Uh huh. Don't test me.

Getting Sisi spayed and declawed on Thursday. She's in heat. Bah! Driving us nuts too. I was hoping she was spayed and had felt her belly for scar tissue and didn't find any so I assumed she wasn't. I was right. She is sharpening her claws on everything! The leather couch and leather computer chair! OMG! Bipping her lightly doesn't seem to deter her either. So out they come. I am staying home with her on Friday so I can watch her. Poor babycake.

She's so sweet. I'm really starting to like her a lot. She likes being held and comes up and lays on us all the time. Then she touches her mouth to our lips like in a kiss. Sooooo sweet!! She also likes sleeping on Jeff's head. LOL!
She didn't know how to play when we first brought her in. So sad! Probably being outdoors she never learned how to play.  We have three cats toys that are sticks with a string and a toy on the end. She wouldn't even chase the feather toy. Finally now she knows how to chase and tackle the toys.

OMG I bought pickled herring today! Yum yum yum!

We had Christmas today with Jeff's family. We play the stealing game where we all get a number, choose and open a gift or steal one from someone else.  It's a lot of fun. Jeff stole a wooden end table made by his step nephew. Ironically since we bought the surround system and TV for the basement we've been needing a small table. It's perfect. I got something for my secret santa person at work. Woop! Regift!! LOL We also won $13.00 off of scratch lottery tickets, and a box full of bubbles. Makes ya wonder, doesn't it?



Here's a Christmas wreath I made for my MIL.

Turned out smashing!!
