Thursday, May 25, 2006
Thirteen opinions Becky has A-M (the rest next week)
1. Animals...I have 2 (well 4 if you count the one I'm 'baysitting' for 8 months) here..and my mother has my other 2 in the states..First we have Bailey, or Bob, or Boy Boy..His first name was Bailey, was changed to Bob cause the guys said it was too girly and then Boy Boy because I didn't like Bob, then Molly, my sweet Momma Kitty..I've had her since she was about 4 weeks old, the one I'm 'babysitting' is named
2. Brokeback Mountain I watched that movies last night and it was so good, only one part made me slightly uncomfortable, but not too much. I cried. So does anyone understand what he meant by that last line..."Jack, I swear"...swear what...anyone...
3. Crazy, I'm crazy for feeling so lonely, and I'm crazy, crazy for feeling so blue...Patsy Cline..sigh one of the greats..I also cry when I watch her movie..Sweet Dreams. Really watch it..
4. DUH...this seems to be the 4 year old's favorite word at the moment...as in "Duh Mom"
5. Energizer...my Bunny's energizer's ran out..MUST.GO.GET.MORE.
6. Flip Flops...really can a person EVER have to many of these???
7. Germany...anyone want to guess why this is in my list..yes you in the back row...because I live there...ohhh yeahhh Take Five Bar for you.
8. He is what I found googling Take Five...HELLO
9. Immigrants...It's been all over the blogs/new/etc. lately..here is my 2cents...America was basically founded on immigrants..it was referred to as a 'melting pot'. I think if an immigrant comes over here..they should be allowed the help they need BUT they need to also be looking for a job/trying to get citizenship too.
10. July...my birthday month..My birthday is actually July 31rst and I will be....hey will you look at that it's time for......
11. Kids..I think we all know how I feel about em.
12. Liver...really who was the first person that thought..."Hey, lets eat that???" Hannibal Lector no doubt
13. Memorial Day is Monday so have a happy one folks..

SICK
I was SICK..S.I.C.K. for the last couple of days..it's hard because Steven wasn't here. :(...Katherine did help out..(hold on while I laugh a little), but now my house looks like the living room/kitchen threw up. I'm just going to give a few random thoughts today..I know y'all love me.
I found this site...it's cool and I love the generators. Mine looked like this
I think I'm going to try FlyLady...the only thing I don't like is the get dressed everyday and put on shoes..W.T.F...put on shoes..no I don't think so.

Murphy and Satan
So, Murphy must LOVE me....He's been getting me since 1800 I was born. Most definately while Steven is away. And Satan, well he's invaded my kids..AGAIN..
Let's go back...The first time Steven ever deployed/tdy..who knows?? anywho..I got acquainted very well with Mr. Murphy. It all happened in ONE DAY...First thing...The cat brought a BIRD into my house...I.HATE.BIRDS. really watch this movie and you too wll hate birds...So, not only was it a BIRD it was ALIVE and IN.MY.HOUSE. One of my friends had to come over and GET.IT.OUT.
Next, Kat (who was about 6 or 7) at the time went into the freezer to sneak out ice cream and left it open. I lost about $200 worth of meat and food...about a week or so before payday..when EVERYONE in the military knows you are BROKE.
Finally, our DOG, a husky got out running, all at the same time, with everything going on I couldn't run after her...well Katherine did..with ONLY panties on--DOWN the block...thank goodness for friends..
AFTER STEVENPROMISED said he'd try not to be gone that long again (big laugh here)..I said OK...
He's gone AGAIN...so here's how it's developed so far...
SATAN AND MURPHY have gotten together...
Murphy is working on me..Satan the kids...
First off, my computer went out, well off the internet the other day..I did everything I could...the phone company said it was my wireless modem..I bought a new one...still couldn't get it to work...had a friend come look..he couldn't get it to work...said it was my modem..went and bought a new one..couldn't get it to work...called tech support..ONE HOUR AND A HALF on the phone with them...they had no clue..they were sending someone..called back 3 minutes later...asked my username/pass to get into THEIR system..THEY had changed it..took everything back..gave the guy at the phone company counter the "evil eye". Oh yeah, did I mentioned I moved the WHOLE DAMN computer, desk and all into the living room??? NOW the speakers won't work.
AND SATAN, well as usual..when steven's away he sneaks in and borrows the kids...
first Katherine..she's23 11 and OH.MY.GOOD.LORD the attitude on that child...doesn't want to do her chores, talks back, and MOODY...my sister asks "Is she going to start soon??" Lord if this is what I have to look forward too..I'm buying stock in THIS company.
Lizzie..well she's just Lizzie..does what she wants no matter what I do..so far she's lost MY ID card, and keeps getting into makeup...I've beat her no less than 3 times yesterday FOR.THE.SAME.THING. did it stop her?? for about 10 minutes (maybe???)
and
Connnor...he has recently found his male part, and oh boy does he love that male part...won't keep his diaper on...whenever anyone comes to the door I have to stand so noone can see in..in case he's holding himself..he even tries to touch it THROUGH the diaper when I DUCT tape that sucker on. Now, not that bad huh??? NO, but he also gets into EVERYTHING...short of putting a lock and key on the cabinets, refrigerator, dryer, closets..I just have to keep a CLOSE eye on him..AND he still finds ways to get in.
ONLY 9 more weeks till Steven's home, then I'm checking into rehab....really.

Should've Known Better
I should've known better...I always bragged to my friends that my kids had NEVER taken their poop and drew on walls or anything..
well, today my friends I had to EAT my words. I put Connor down for a nap and he just wouldn't go to sleep...so I went in there to try to put him to sleep...he was sitting in his crib...NO DIAPER...and had pooped and smeared it...at least it was only on the sheets. could've been worse I guess...
Still..I.WILL.NEVER.SAY.NEVER.AGAIN

Sad Day.
It's a sad day folks..Steven's Grandmother..Mrs. Veda Margaret Moore died last night (Saturday May 13, 2006).
I wish to express my deepest sympathies to Ed and Carol on the loss of their mother and Steven, Brian and the cousins on their grandmother.
Veda was a true southern matriarch. She was the leader of the Moore family...and everyone knew it..She was a great woman. I don't think I EVER heard of her turning her back on one of her family members in need. If you asked--you got it--no strings attached.
When I first met Veda, Steven had just moved me to Altus, Oklahoma to live with him..I'm not sure if we were engaged, married or what at that point but we were together. I was a little apprehensive because he told me how she didn't like Brian's wife (now ex) or his ex-girlfriend. I thought great she's going to hate me..bringing "baggage" into a marriage--baggage=Katherine. She was great.
As for Katherine, even though she wasn't one of her biological grandchildren she NEVER treated her any different than the rest. That is one great person.
Her hubby died about 2 or 3 years ago after a short bout with Alzheimers. She took care of him until the end. About a year or two ago she found out she had cancer in the brain. She did the surgery, chemo, radiation treatment. She held on longer than they expected...about a year. The last time we saw her was Christmas of this year and she looked wonderful. We went to see her a few times in the nursing home and she looked great then too. Her health started failing a couple of weeks ago. She got an infection and was in isolation. She died on Saturday night.
Veda I wasn't one of your true grandchildren and I didn't know you for a long time but from everything I knew and heard I know you were one in a million. I will never forget how you took Katherine on as your own. That there meant the world to me. I hope you have found the peace you deserve and I hope you have reunited with those you cherished.
Rest In Peace sweet lady.
**My family and I are making donations in her name to the American Cancer Society I urge everyone who has ever had this affect their lives in one way or another to do the same.

HE.IS.NOT.AN. EXPERIMENT.
So, yesterday Katherine was changing Connor's diaper..I 'mysteriously' disappeared when I smelt it..I'm not stupid...anyways she calls me in
Kat: Mom...this diaper is gross..it's green...come look at this...
(who else but a mom would go look at their child's poo???)
Me: Hmm,he probably ate a crayon..
Kat: So, if I fed him a pink crayon it would be pink and a blue crayon it would be blue?
Me: Well probably not the same color as the crayon, but it would be colored...
UH OH what was I thinking....now I have to go hide the crayons....

One Week
Well, it's been a week since Steven left..only 8 more to go...I don't know how you single mothers do it day in and day out...I give lots of Kudos to you. I mean it...I could do it..I have but having a husband is nice to have around. It's nice not to be the "bad guy" all the time.
Here is a pic of Lizzie and Connor when Steven was packing.
hmm should've let em go..or at least insisted he take one huh???
I had a really cute picture of Connor running away with my cake batter this weekend but somehow...(read one of the little rats)...deleted all the pics on my camera..I guess I'll have to hide it from them too
Wish me luck my friends..the 4 year old took my military ID off my dresser and now I have to CLEAN.THE.HOUSE and find it...

Things that make you go hmmm???
So, I got this email and watched it the other day...and I sat and thought and thought..and you know what I believe it.
Now I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but this one makes PERFECT sense.
SOMETHING TO MAKE YOU GO, Hmmmmmmmmmm..........
Subject: Where is the Airplane??
Any comments, is this perplexing? Or, did the FBI, etc., do a super job of "cleaning" up the mess? The fireball is pretty large and the heat concentrated in the area could be the culprit.
Well, this will get your attention.
Subject: Where is the airplane???
For all of you Grassy Knoll, the Mafia did it, Castro did it. Folks, here's a new conspiracy to chew on.
Where is the airplane???
How's this for a 9/11 conspiracy theory?
Where is the airplane........that crashed into the Pentagon.........?????
Where are the airplane parts???
Go to this website and watch this film.........do it quickly as it has already been pulled off several web sites already!........afterwards you'll see why!
http://www.pentagonstrike.co.uk/flash.htm#Main
Tell me what you think...
Also will someone explain why I can no longer imbed links???
