One can not live on Honeycombs and baby donuts

I have had to call in reinforcements after a mere 12 hours on my own :(.
When I was single in the city it was no problem, restaurants as far as the eye could see and no real chores other cleaning an apartment.
Here in the sticks and a million miles from nowhere- I am burned out on Sonic and the fear of burning my house down or a raging case of food poisoning.
I have wisely decided it's best for me not to attempt cooking
Everyone at church yesterday were offering to feed me if I showed up on their doorstep. Yes, the entire congregation knows I cannot cook.
PICKLES TO THE RESCUE!!!!!!!!
You see, Critter is gone till Fri. and I have the chore thing down but, a girl has got to eat! So Mom is headed over YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I miss my Critter BAD! (Yes, he married me for my looks and talents in other departments)
We have never really been apart so I am trying to put on a brave face but, I am weak from hunger.
I went to feed the horses this morning before sunrise (Critter feeds in the mornings) and all the horses looked at me as if I had 3 heads and was a lost stranger (I am not a morning person)
So let the good times!
The single ladies will be causing a ruckus tonight !

* I fixed helicopters when I was in the ARMY
* I hired a decorator to do the house we live in and I am doing the barn on my own and am praying it doesn't turn out like a gawd awful mess

The Butt Dance

Critter gently woke me this morning with the Butt Dance.
What is that you say?
Well, in our household- You get in you spouses line of sight and shake your cute little rear from side to side while singing "I'm on vacation" ( repeat several times- the song and butt swaying)
This is so the spouse who has to get up and go to work can make loud grunting noises and dreads getting out of bed even more.

I got an award from the coolest blogger and will be posting it later

STINKY FISH CAUGHT

(This is a picture of the said Stinky Fish)
If you are a regular reader of mine please forgive this post but, I have a stalker that feels the need to keep up with my life for no good reason other than her petty jealousy and inability to let go of a past life. One day I will let ya know the details but not today. So once again this post is meant for one person.


You know who you are.
You are nosey. You apparently are very interested in my life.
You are nothing to me other than a pest and you are not so smart when it comes to hiding your snooping.

How about you jump in the lake? or better yet mind your own business????
I see you won't make your blog public. Is that because you are a frickin nut and people would see it????? and if you do decide to go public- Don't worry I wont read it because I don't care about you or your life.

Well "Dearie" Once again, I am going to be redirecting your little nosey expeditions to a website that I think would benefit your batshit cazy self!

Have a nice day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You think You got a good brother?

He had a procedure done Fri and made it through no prob.
Well, I got a call yesterday and he had some issues come up so, he was back in the hospital.
I drove like a bat out of hell to get to the hospital and spent some time laughin with him. He is the kind of guy when you meet him ya love him.
So he is havin some test run and hopefully he will be fine and get to come home tomorrow.

Got some teeffers on Thurs. after the doc did some wild and extremely painful things to me. Thanks for the Meds doc they seem to be keeping my mind occupied :-}
I will get my official "George Washington " teeth at the end of the month and I will post some pics
Words of advise : Don't try and cook eggs while on Vicoden ( specially if ya don't know how to cook in the first place)
Happy day people and If ya get a chance throw my brudder in your prayers

Best Days of My Life

I was outside a moment ago and all the sudden, I started thinking about when my mom came to stay with me after I broke my back. My mom dropped everything and from the time I landed at the hospital until about 3 weeks later when I was walking around and able to go back to work she was there.
I had back surgery last year and again, She was there from the day of the surgery until 2 weeks later.
She was there. (and again laughing are heads off)

My dad was ill in April 04 and he stayed for 14 days at the facility I was working.
Every night I would take Dad out and we would go eat or just hit the grocery store or whatever, during the day he pop into my office and lay a bag of popcorn on my desk and ask me "if I get a moment could I nuke it for him" During our excursions in the evenings Dad and I talked about EVERYTHING and I had some of the best conversations.
Dad passed away the following month at home and in his sleep.

Critter and I met in October and I remember so vividly the night in December I asked him to marry me and he said YES.

Thinking about the day my sister died and her opening my eyes to the Lord and feeling not so alone anymore.

I was thinking about the day I was decorating my daughters room 3 days before she was born and the moment I just started crying uncontrollably because I was going to be a Mom.

These are just a few of my best days.

Hope you have a good day
Scrappy

When did this happen?

I don't know alot of people. In fact besides my Critter I don't have a really close friend.
I mean, I know people- I go with people from work to places sometimes but, no good friend. Anyway, it's Friday night and I am home alone.
Critter went to his Mom's they had a death in their family (No, I am not close to his family-A whole other blog)
So, to get to the point.
I am home playing Farm Town and blogging and watching Dateline. (can you say multi-task?)
I am young!!!!
Shouldn't I be out causing a ruckus ?
Funny how if you don't drink you tend to stay home when the hubby is away.
When did I start acting old????

Warning!

So, I have a face book page and my goofy family got me hooked on this game called Farm Town.
If you have such a page and get this request DONT DO IT! it is so addictive it's unreal!
First, I thought it was harmless and kinda dumb. Now, O forget it!! I am a full blown Farm Town Junkie!!!
Hello My name is Scrappy Doo. I have been...... Well, you know the 12 step drill.
Things are going good on the real farm the house is coming along and shopping and designing with Critter is alot of fun.
Critter is now able to bend his fingers after the hand smashing incident
Well back to work
Have a Great Day:-)
