I like to buy....

I like to buy stuff... for everyone but me. I need stuff, but it feels like I'm taking away from my family to actually buy ME things. And even when I don't have to buy stuff, I sometimes get this urge to buy stuff anyways. It makes me feel good just to buy a $5 little toy for my Tinker 'Emmy' Bell or a $3 car for my Joey, for no other reason than 'just because'. I like to go and cruise around Target (my favorite place to shop) and just look for stuff to buy... but not actually buy it (don't get me wrong, I do buy stuff every now and then, just not recently with the whole David's job thing). I even like Walmart (but not my favorite, like Target is) because it is open 24 hours a day. It's great! I just wish they had Targets that did that. And Walmart has a great selection of household cleaning stuff, cheaper than Target, but their clothes are awful! Especially for little girls! I just bought a pair of pants, size 5, for my little girl there and they are WAY TOO LOW DOWN IN THE FRONT! I couldn't believe it. For 5 year old little girl! Now I need to return the pants. Uggh! This is where Target comes into play... THEY have a much better selection of clothes, and toys ( I should have gone there first). So when I have to buy things like toilet paper, tissue, paper towels... you get the idea, I go to Walmart. But when I need to buy clothes for everyone or shoes (for the littler kids), I go to Target. You see, it's my favorite place to shop!

Things I like...

On to things I like... hearing my children laugh... especially at the 'freaking bunnies' (which I still am not totally sold on) taking off with someone's balloon and hopping around the room with the string in his mouth. It WAS really funny. Vader (short for Darth Vader) was hopping around the living room and just happened on to some string, which had a balloon attached to it. Vader, not knowing this, probably 'cause he's a bunny, thought that the string tasted mighty nice and started to eat said string and as I'm talking to my sister-in-law Amy, I'm motioning Kiry to get the bunny OFF of the string... she starts to laugh, which in turn, leads to the other kids looking and laughing with delight too. But I didn't want the bunny to eat the string ('cause it's not really string and even if it were, I'd still not want him to eat it) so I finally shoo him OFF the sting and the kids were sad. Well, short story long, I'm trying to get the kids to bed and Kiry says "Look Mom, the balloon." I turn around and Vader, the 'Freaking Bunny', has got the sting and now the balloon is floating right above his cage and bouncing as he's eating the string in his cage! Dang bunny! Too fricken, chicken funny! I guess ya gotta laugh at it, instead of cry about it! :)

What have I been up to...

Nothing. Nada. Zip... Zilch... Zoink? J/k I must do stuff, lots of stuff, just not blog entry stuff. I like to blog stalk and get great kid craft ideas, but do I do anything with them... Nope. Not yet anyway. It all comes down to $$, money, moollah, dinero, coins, that 'finger swipe' thing that everyone does for a money sign. We ain't got NONE! And I hate it! And it's not like David doesn't have a job, 'cause he's got one! It's just that we have too many bills, extra bills, and lots of student loan debt. Not to mention that his work is in a constant state of NOT PAYING US! It gets to one after awhile, like me, who pays the bills and who gets the calls of 'Why haven't you paid your mortgage yet?' (this reminds me of Fat Tony asking Homer Simpson about his wife asking 'Where's the money honey?' 'How come I don't have the money, Honey?', 'When are you going to get the money, Honey?') And as of right now, I don't care who knows it. I don't care WHO I offend, if they read this. This is MY blog and not "a lot" :) of people know about it. So there. Rant over, moving on...
