Tell us something

Good morning and happy Monday. I'm working today, boo.

Tell us something. Anything. A joke, something unique about yourself, a news story, memory from childhood, YouTube funny, ANYTHING.

There has got to be something interesting we can do/talk about.

Re: Tell us something

  • The Today Show interviewed a family that was on the cruise ship that sank in the Mediterranean. The mom mentioned that she was freaking out because she can't swim. I thought to myself, "why would you go on a vacation in the middle of a giant body of water if you can't swim?".

    We are buying a new car this spring. My husbands wants a van (Honda Odessy). I was an SUV. We've never car shopped together. I'm wondering who will get the car of our dreams, lol.

  • Last night I went to check my facebook account.  I noticed that I had several new messages- I went to check them and discovered a surprise birthday party my DH is planning for me...Yikes! DH was still logged into his fb acct and I didn't realize it!

    I'm excited about the party but totally bummed that I found out about it:( 

  • Can't swim-  reminds me of my husband.  My mom was giving him crap about not wanting to buckle up and if he died it would leave me to raise DS all alone.  He said by not buckling he could get out easier if we hit water.  He didn't tell my mom he couldn't swim, so I told her :).  But then we discussed how to get DS out if we did--do you take the whole infant carseat or do you try to unbuckle him to be lighter?

    I used to have a co-worker like that.  Some of my favorite quotes from her...

    Is Canada domestic or international?  (I worked in a bank and she was trying to figure out a wire transfer to Canada.  Apparently, she didn't know Canada was a completely different country.)

    How many months are in 5 weeks?

    The list goes on and on, but I can't remember any more at the moment.  The only reason she was hired at the bank was because she knew the manager.

  • A corny joke:

    Q: What do you get when you mix a vampire and a snowman?

    A: A frostbite!

    I have been told many times that I should be a hand model. I guess my hands are pretty and I should show them off! The only problem? I don't take very good care of my nails. They are usually non-painted, broken off or chewed down.

  • Working today. I got my W-2, but I still need my W-2 from the temp agency and unemployment before I can really start on my taxes, Boo.

    I posted a blog entry about creating a budget. I would love feedback on it. : https://lissahome.wordpress.com/2012/01/14/time-to-create-a-budget/

    I plan on posting about finance, organization, decor, etc. I'm keeping this separate from my single mom blog.

    I have never had a manicure :( I want to get one so bad... I want pampered!

    I am REALLY hoping to get my tattoo this week. Waiting on my friend to draw it up. He is giving me a discount (seriously, like half off) so I don't want to complain too much.

  • i am off today with pay and loving it...DD # 1 has no school, and DD # 2 has no daycare as its closed

    Re: going on a cruise and not knowing how to swim...my mother has been on about 30 cruises and she doesnt know how to swim. Guess you just never think something bad will happen...btw that  story is horrible about the cruise ship.

    A funny visual...when my mother comes over our house to go in the pool (in the shallow end due to her lack of knowing how to swim) she literally grabs 10 noodles and places them under her arms for fear that she might drown....

    and a funny for today

    I would unbuckle instead of trying to take the whole seat. It would be easier to maneuver out the window and lighter.

  • Mrs. Skull, one of my nanny kids used to tell that joke all the time.

    Eesome, my nails suck too. Next time we should get manicures! Also, when the babies get older, they will have a lemonade sale.

    I love making photo albums online. I just never finish or print them. This reminds me that I've got to order some more prints.

  • Happy Monday ladies! 

     I am working today. No rest for the weary...probably a good thing though, I have been working non-stop lately. Busy, busy, busy. 

    Joke:  My dd has been telling this joke for days, she read it in Diary of a Wimpy Kid and now thinks it is the funniest thing ever.  "Doctor, can I have a new butt, mine has a crack in it!"  Over and over and over and over and over.  Keep in mind, this is her excuse to say "butt" we do not use that at our house, but because she read it in the book, she hasn't been in trouble for it.  Oh the reading age...

    On another note, I am sad today.  The posts about those poor babies and mothers.  I just want to go home and squeeze my babies. I am so blessed to have 2 healthy happy kids.  I just have no words that can describe how sorry I am for those two moms...

    ...sorry for the downer at the end...

    Going on a tangent here... DD1 was born on the same day as my co-worker's DD, one year later. We actually had the same due date, too. It's fun to watch her DD and think "So, this is what it'll be like a year from now" :)

    Gah I know! It takes FOREVER! I *try* to work on my albums here and there so I don't end up rushing to finish them in order to take advantage of some coupon, but I can't say I've had much success...

    I got one too!  Trying to find some time to use it.  I think I may just order a bunch of prints for DD's photo album.
