6 Hours

May 25, 2007 at 8:45 pm | In life | No Comments

That’s how long it took me to clean my aunts kitchen, bathroom and clean off the dining room table.  SIX hours.  It was actually pretty fun since I was there by myself and didn’t have kids poking me in the ass every five damn seconds.  I did however also bite it from tripping over a fucking Safeway bag on the floor.  God damn cat food.

I ran three loads of dishes through the dishwasher while I was there and put away one load that she’d already had done.  The bathroom has two huge built in cupboards that were really dusty, so I was brave and busted out the step ladder and managed to climb the two steps and not slip and bash my fucking head in on the tub.  It was either I was going to slip of the step ladder was going to decide that it didn’t like my fat ass and just bust in half.  Luckily for me, neither happened.

The kitchen floor just wasn’t getting clean with using Lysols multi purpose cleaner, even with a spray bottle in hand I sprayed the horrible areas and it didn’t make a bit of difference.  So, I told my aunt that I needed something gritty to clean it with.  I ended up using Comet.  I got the floor damp and sprinkled it with Comet and scrubbed the living hell out of it with the mop and then tried to was it away as best as I could.  It’s definately better than it was!

Anyhow, it’s done and I’ll go back in a couple weeks.  Ahhh, relief!

What The Hell Is Wrong With You?!

I’m all about equality and being fair, but for the love of junkfood, Shea is being a jerk!Now I know that she’s only 6, and I’m 28 and headed to bitch faster than lightening, but why in the World can’t people speak up.

We just got home from school and I know all the kids are hungry, so I ask what they want to eat.  Kalayah says “peanut butter schamwhich!”  I said “No, you’ve had that the last few days, time for something new.”  I get no lip from her, not a peep.  I looked in the fridge and asked if they wanted a hot dog on bread, I didn’t hear a response.  I looked in the freezer and we had some frozen chicken patties so I got those out and put 3 on a plate.  Shea starts whining that she wants a hot dog.  “Too bad Shea, I already have these out now.  You can have a hot dog some other time.”  She started screaming and pitching a fit.

I ignored her until she got up from the kitchen table and proclaimed “I’m not eating.  I’m NOT eating.”  I told her  “Like hell you’re not eating, now get your ass in here, sit down and shut up!”  More screaming, crying and general tantrum-ing ensued.

“Why can’t I just have a hot dog?…I never get hot dogs.  You ALWAYS do this.”  blah blah blah

By now the chicken was done, the buns were toasted and I was getting the food ready.  I set it all on the table and she sat there sobbing, head down in her arm.  I said,  “Shea.  WHAT is the problem?  It’s a chicken sandwhich and you like them so eat it.”  To which she SCREAMED.  So I retaliated with “EAT.  NOW!”

Then she sobbed and ate and ate about 2/3 of it then started bitchin that she was full.

“Don’t care, but no food till dinner.  Period.”

She gets in these moods where you can’t say anything right.  Even if I would have given her a damn hot dog after the fact she’d still have sat there and whined and carried on about how mean and rude I am.

Was I wrong for not just giving in?  I mean it’s just food and it required the same preperation but can’t they just accept a simple “Not this time.” sometimes. 

My next dilemma is figuring out what’s for dinner.  No clue.

Most Interesting Conversation…..With A Three Year Old

Standing in the kitchen cooking dinner.  Kalayah tells me she has to go poop.  She goes in the bathroom and is in there forever…

Me:  “Kalayah!  Hurry up!”

Her: “I ammm mom!”

Me:  “Well, then hurry up and get out, you’re taking forever in there.”

Her:  “My turd won’t come out…”

Me:  “Well maybe it’s not ready to come out yet.”

Her:  “Yes it is mom, it’s eating cake now.”

Me:  “WHAT?  It’s eating TAPE?”

Her:  “No, cake, you know…like people?  They eat cake?!”

Me:  “Ohh cake.  Your turd’s eating cake?”

Her:  “YESSS.”

Me:  Pulls out my cell phone and texts Claude, ”Just an fyi, Kalayahs turd is eating cake.  Roflmao!

Here’s The Rundown

May 15, 2007 at 8:10 pm | In life | 1 Comment

These last few days I haven’t been on here much…I usually lay off a little on the weekends cuz you know, I have time to do something else!

Sunday, Mothers Day, we went to the river in the afternoon.  We barbequed some short ribs and hung out with Bill and Jani and their kids.  It ended up being a decent day outside and actually warmed up a bit.  Not making it dreadful like I’d imagined.  Like always.

Yesterday (Monday) was cleaning day at my parents house.  It was a beautiful sunny day and even  nicer at their house.  After cleaning the house I pushed Kalayah on the swing and helped my dad haul the big swing from the barn to the back yard.  We sat outside and chatted a bit before we headed into town and picked Austin up from Grannies house, got Shea and went home.  Austin pitched a royal bitch at school since he didn’t take a nap at Grannies.  It was horribly embarrasing!  I took him outside where he proceeded to headbutt me a couple times and really piss me the fuck off.  To make matters worse, he has two teeth coming in so it was an extra special kinda bitchfest yesterday!

Today we went to Wal-Mart and bought too much shit.  I had to buy Shea and Kalayah some red tights for some dance thingy they are doing for the Sons of Norway Sunday.  Something Grannie talked Shea into doing.  It’s just a little dance at lunchtime I guess.  Nothing extra special, but they have to wear outfits that we luckily borrowed from someone else, cuz I sure as hell wasn’t about to make some.  Kalayah isn’t in the dance, but Grannie figured that she’s like to walk out with the other girls, so whatever, she’s a chicken shit and probably won’t do it at all!  I’ll be sure to take pictures though, cuz they will be cute regardless!  Austin was being a whiney little punk in Wal-Mart and Kalayah was Etch-A-Sketching in line and I was frustrated cuz I wanted to leave and Kalayahs shoes were on the wrong feet and she was farting around….anyhow, I got some cash back and after we got in the car I sent Claude a text telling him we’re having hamburgers and sunchips for dinner.  Yum! 

After a couple minutes he called me and was going to chit chat, I was being short.  I was irritated, but told him I have some cash if he wanted it for lunch and asked him where to meet up.  He was in the same area so I only had to take a left and up a block and he came around the corner at the same time.  I was trying to get the money out of my purse and my purse wasn’t cooperating and he was trying to say something and I said “Just shut the fuck up!”  YIKES!  That was nice!  Handed him the money, (people were behind both of us after 2 seconds) and left.  Of course he called me and said “WHAT the hell was that for?”  I felt like an asshole.  I apologized.  Hung up, and texted him another apology.  What a fucking bitch huh!  Damn kids are gonna be the death of me!

I’ve got to learn to chill the fuck OUT!

I know that this isn’t exactally an exciting post, but it’s real life, take it or leave it.

RSM & tesco Kickin’ It Old School

I had this really weird dream last night.  REALLY weird.  First I was somewhere I dunno where, but in a public place and I saw a blond woman just getting out of a car; she was wearing black and white striped knees high socks along with a referees outfit.  I realized it was RSM and ran over and asked her what she was up to.  She was headed to referee a basketball game and wasn’t all that thrilled about it. 

So I walked with her so we could catch up.  Not that we’re friends or whatever, but it was RSM and dammit I was gonna talk to her if I had that chance.  So we started talking about our kids and she told me that Lil Miss really wanted to go to the Bodies Exhibit.  I told her that me and my husband along with a friend wanted to go and see it too, but never made it and now the Exhibit was done in Seattle.  She reiterated that Lil Miss REALLY wanted to go and we cracked up about that.

Anyhow…then my dream shifted from RSM as a referee, to what I presume to be her house.  There was huge french doors and vaulted ceilings and plants galore.  Then I saw tesco walking towards the door and music started playing.  I can’t remember what song, but I’m sure it was The Clash, or at least a punk band….  So, as tesco opens the door, he starts to lipsync.  RSM comes to the door with some serious 80’s hair all curly/crimped with guitar in hand.

I’m thinking WHAT THE HELL?!

She sat down on the couch and started wailing away on her guitar and singing.  It was a damn music video!  RSM and tesco made a video!  I “watched” it for awhile and then woke up.

How strange was that!

My House…Home Of The Free

I’ve been in the process of giving things away for garage sales, throwing things away and giving things away for free.  Like this hide-a-bed.

There wasn’t anything wrong with it but a few cat scratches, a couple holes and a little dust and dirt, but I was tired of seeing it in the garage and didn’t want it getting all gross and moldy so since yesterday was a nice day I scooched it down to the bottom of the driveway.

I decided to open it up so people could see it’s potential…

 I had a couple people stop and tell me they would be back to pick it up and no one ever returned.  At about 8 last night I told Claude to go ahead and scoot it back in the garage.

I shoved it back out there this morning with hopes that it wasn’t going to start raining and about a half an hour ago a couple guys pulled up and gave it a look over.  Dude #1 came up to the door and asked it was it was for real.  Umm, yeah it’s for real, take it!

“It’s just what we’re lookin’ for!”

“Good, it’s better than sitting in my garage!”

Haha, smooth ain’t I!?

Dude #2 backed the truck in while I was secretly taking a picture of Dude #1 with the sweet couch.  (With my cell phone mind you!)

So off it went.  Hasta la taco el couchadora!

Excuse Me, May I Please Borrow Your Sleeve?

Snot, snot and more snot, sneezing, coughing and loveliest of all BARFING.  Sounds like a day at the park doesn’t it.  This recirculating cold nonsense is really starting to piss me off.  Today it’s Austin…he’s thrown up twice so far.  Not exactly the productive day I was hoping for, but hey…that’s life right.  Especially life with kids.  He’s acting normal except when he just turns his head and harfs right then and there without warning.  He got my pants the second time.  Yummy.

I’m really starting to wonder about Kalayah…  Every night, well, almost every night she will wake up umpteen times and sit in her room and scream, carry on, kick, thrash around and just bitch until someone comes in there, until she falls asleep again, or gets tired of her own shit and wanders into our room to continue on her little rampage on her dads side of the bed.  It’s horribly annoying and extremely aggravating.

This kid has a temper.

I’ve tried seeing if having the TV off helps, and it doesn’t change either way.  I’ve considered giving up the play room and having the girls in separate rooms.  I’m just not sure what to do.  I’m hoping that it’s just a phase and that she’ll grow out of it.

On a totally different note-

Yesterday afternoon was spent organizing my mess in the garage.  My grandmas church is having a garage sale this weekend, and I figured rather than having my own, I’d just donate whats left from our garage sale to them.  I had most things already in groups of garage sale/garbage/burnables.  So I bagged up some toys and hauled all the garage sale stuff into the van.  I’m going to meet her tonight at the church to haul it all in. 

My dad came by this morning with the truck and we loaded it up with all the burnables, minus the couch.  There wasn’t enough room to throw that on top so it’ll have to wait for another time. 

Free dump day or whatever it’s called for my parents area is May 12, so things that can’t be thrown in the garbage or burnt and going to go then.  It’s only really a couple things.  The slide and teeter totter from the swing set.  I think that’s it! 

The two dressers and tables and lamps out there are going to be hauled away Friday by some guy from the college.  They are having a garage sale coming up too.  I can’t wait to get my garage back, sweep it out and start all over again.  lol  That’s usually how it is!

Ohhhhhhhh, I have a short story from last night.  I might dry heave in the process…

I was sitting in the recliner, enjoying some nachos.  Just some chips with cheese melted over the top with a side of salsa.  I’d probably been sitting there munching for 10-15 minutes when I dipped my cheesy chip in the salsa and kinda thought something looked weird.  I sloshed the salsa around trying to get rid of the “weird” part.  I scraped the chip on the salsa bowl and a god damned mother fucking spider started crawling around IN my salsa.  I threw it all on the floor, started dry heaving and told Claude,  “Get rid of it.  Now!  Now!  Go!  It’s gross!  I’m gonna puke!”  So he took it and flushed it!  HAHA  Is that not the most disgusting thing!  EW!  I told him it was mixed in with the salsa, but I know it wouldn’t have been alive it is was.  He says it fell from the ceiling but I’d totally have seen that since I’m the most observant person on the planet!  At least that’s what I claim.  It’s gross, disgusting and I’m staying away from that salsa till it’s gone!  Have at it Claude!
