Oh my ...

Well last weekend I started painting my front room yellow.  Had a couple of friends helping me along the way (thank the sweet CBJ) and things are moving along well.  OK, tooooooo slow for me but I am impatient.  Oh and I spilled paint on the tile floor when I fell/slipped off the ladder.  Even that was OK because I wanted to paint the tile anyway ...so all in all I should have pics up later of the new place.  We are goofy here and always name the different rooms of my house (not really sure how that started) so when done this will be the Key West room.

In other news/why I might not be posting regularly for the next week:
Sunday having a big Daytona 500 party - woo hoo go Dale Jr!
Monday/Tuesday - have to go to ATL for work
Hopefully get to see my cuz this weekend and my other one Tues since he will be down from NY
Grandma is having day surgery on Wed.

have a fantastc Thursday!

24hrs and counting ....so far no more mice - woo hoo. 

starting the painting projet tomorrow - that should be total chaos - can't wait!  especially if some of my friends show up.  None of us really like painting, I see stories in the horizon!  The color was inspired by Key West, a nice shade of yellow.  The front room will now become a sun room - pretty pretty.

Finally remember - 1 week to the Dayonta 500 - woo hoo!

Insert Evil Laugh Here -

Why, because I can!  I bought an electric mouse trap and YES they do work.  Maybe because I live in FL I am partial to ole sparky but who cares I won.  Got one mouse with the old school trap and 1 mouse with ole sparky.  Hopefully there are no aunts, uncles and cousins! 

Next project, painting the front room ...although I am taking help on that one if I can get it - painting sucks!

Happy Friday all

 GAME ON!  Die Sucker Die!

Oh yeah I have a friggin mouse in my house.  I of course do not know how to set traps so I asked my friend Puffer to show me.  After several trial runs, I got it.  Went home, set them and that little guy ate all the peanut butter and did not set off the dang trap!  WTF???  Oh it's a war.  I reset that sucker before I left for work and I better see a dead thing when I get home.  Oh Puffer said he would come over and set it ...no way.  Girl power damn it.  This mouse will not out smart me!  I write crappy rpts out of analytics for god's sake (yes, Olive of course our Philly friend helps me!!!).  I have to deal with morons all day ...I can do this!   That's right it is a war.  And if that doesn't work ...well there is always this trap.  Happy Day to you all

 

 

2/7/07 edit Puffer is short for Pufferfish get your minds out of the gutter!

You know you are a geek when the bright spot of your day was a successful analytic report running from your crappy reporting tool. yee haw! 
Happy Tuesday.

Apparently I am still in Key West mode ...

went out drinking Saturday night with some friends to forget all the "drama" and boy howdy did I succeed.  ah good times.  thank the sweet baby christmas Jesus (from now on referred to as SCBJ) that I always have some where to stay at Beachy's!  as promised my favorite pic from Key West.  Hope you all have a good week and as soon as Beachy writes her spin on the trip ...I'll put up the link - ha ha ha

I am back.....barely!

The Key West trip was so great!!!!!  I had so much fun and damn there are plenty of stories to tell.  In honesty, I thought of all my xanga pals down there too - lots of pirate garb and tours for Cyrna, bands playing lots of Prince for Acid and Pimie, apparently I was wearing some type of glitter ala Sunshine and of course all those beautiful Harleys for RdKing - I even ran into some Canadians!

I was hoping that Beachy, Runny or Nolegrl would have posted by now so I could just link you all over but none of us has! 

I will try to post some stories later and get around to commenting on your all's site.  Coming back to work was rough and with some personal drama thrown in I am way behind on everything.   Pics to come  Have a happy day 

 

I can't believe how long it has been since I posted.  So much going on and in 7 hours I am leaving for Key West.  NO, I have not packed yet.  I am going to bed for a few hours and then see what the AM brings!

Beachy, Haydee and Runny are doing a 1/2 marathon on Sunday down there.  I am the driver/coach.  We are going to have so much fun.
We don't get back until Monday.   I am taking Tuesday off so I promise to update and upload pics then and finally visit your sites.  I miss what is going on with you guys!

Catlady - thanks for working on project Polk County.  I will call you from the road.  No big rush.  Goodluck with your deadlines

Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Busy Saturday!

Yes I am up and doing chores, actually going to the grocery store AGAIN this week ...whew!

My bro is coming up from down south to hangout with the family at the beach condo.  so of course at some point I will have to go out there too to sit on the beach.  It is suppose to be cold/windy but sunny today high of 70.  I just let the pets out back and it was not that cold ...woo hoo let's hope the weatherman got it wrong.  It is a tad chilly but no wind!  Let's keep it that way.  Later tonight Beachy is having a cookout so I will mosey over at some point.  Her neighbor boy is going to grill up some fish and making a home made key lime pie.  With the other fixins salad(me), veggie kebabs, rice pilaf, etc oh and booze  ... it will be a yummy yummy time.

Tomorrow I am making the big pot of mama mia homemade spaghetti for everyone and we are going to watch the Bears game.  My Uncle is a huge fan.  I am not sure who I will be rooting for in either game. 

I will be back to comment on everyone's pages later today tomorrow AM.  If I start now I might not get anything done!

Hope you all have a GREAT day.

Well another day has passed and I am still struggling with that document.  Beachy is coming over later to help but i think we will just end up drinking and watching Grey's on TV.  She invited others so who knows!

I was stuck in unplanned meetings all day to day and I feel like nothing is getting done.  Having the family in town encamped on the beach is not helping the situation!  I think we will catch up tomorrow night for dinner.  My mom will be staying with them all weekend - how nice!

Has anyone been watching American Idol??  oh my they seem so mean and hideous this year.  what is up with people trying to sing?

OK time to get busy.  TTFN
