You can take the Girl outta Idaho..But...
You can't take Idaho outta the girl...(hush)
And isn't that the truth? I have family coming in tonight...from Idaho. My Aunt Carol..( Who is by far my favorite out of my zillions of Aunts..) and her daughter are staying here tonight. They are here to pick up my cousin ( I guess that would be my second cousin) From the Christian school here in Seattle..( well, I guess ONE of the Christian schools..).
I've decided I'm going to let them stay in our bedroom tonight..since Mikes off tomorrow, and we tend to stay up late, anyway. So if I can get this HUGE pile of clean laundry off of the futon..that will be our place of rest. Note that I said clean laundry. Almost caught up...woohoo!
I've put away all my books on Paganism and Witchcraft, so that my Aunt doesn't have heart failure while praying for my soul. Hopefully she won't look in the nightstand. If she does..then hey, it's her own fault for being a snoop. I'm not ashamed to be Pagan...at all, actually, but I don't want to freak her out. I love her too much for that.
Sometimes all it takes is the threat of impending relatives to really get you going. So far today I've done bathrooms, kitchen, living room, bedroom. Next is floors..( my least favorite...wait..I think I said that about laundry, too...oh, and I know I said that about bathrooms...hmmm..) Then onto dusting. Sooo fun. I think I'm just going to tape those Swiffter things to the kids hands and feet, and let them go to town. While I sit on the couch, eating Bon-Bons, and watching Springer. (Wish I liked Bon-Bons...hmmm...let me revise this. ) While I sit on the couch eating my B&J Phish Food, watching Oprah. Yeah, that's more my style. I'm WAY cooler than Bon Bons...lol.
My Aunt just called...they are taking a BUS from Seattle to Renton..( for those of you who know your way around here..) Yeah, I said a BUS. Okay, so they drove from Idaho, into Seattle. But they are scared to drive in 'all that traffic' so they are BUSING it out here, then I'll pick them up. They left their car...( sorry, Truck) at the college. Crazy, I tell you. So, GUESS who gets to play taxi tomorrow? Oh..c'mon...GUESS! What did you say? I can't hear you....
ME!! That's RIGHT! *ding-ding-ding* ( you're just lucky you got that on the first try..lol)
I wish it was Mike doing the Taxing...but I'm not that mean. Or am I? Muahahahahahaha
It will be fun though, to spend time with them. But they seem to bicker a whole lot. And really, like I need anymore drama in my days right now, eh?
Ohhhh...check THIS out. SOOOOOO funny. I mean, pee your pants kind of funny. No kidding. Be careful.
I have another blog going in word..( but it was Therapy day..so I need some time to digest)...Plus one of my Girls told me not to think for two days...( until the Prozac kicks back in..) So I'm doing my best to listen to her words of wisdom...and it's not that hard actually...hmmm..I wonder what that says about me..lol...but I'm having fun writing about nothing. Are you liking it? Wait...don't answer that...lol
OH, and I (by I, I mean Mike, of course..) hooked up my webcam. It's soooo fun. Emily thinks it's a lot funner..( that IS a word, damnit..). She can't get enough of herself. She's soo much like her Dad...*snort*.
Wanna see my new Diva Sunglasses? They are so goofy, and not something I would have purchased 2 months ago..( not practical) but now..oh yeah, I have THREE pairs. ( different styles, of course..) I know..I'm a mad women. So, You wanna see? Oh....sure you do...hold on, let me find the picture..
If I hear any 'Heidi' comments about the hair..I will track you down..I swear...
Okay, I've stalled enough...time to do the floors...YAY...( can you see how completely full of un contained excitement I am??)...( Yeah, thats sarcasm..lol)
Have a great Wednesday everyone!
xoxo

You mean you remember your 21st birthday? Really? Are we supposed to remember that birthday? I think I know who I was with...
Enjoy the visit with family. I hope it goes well!
Have a good time. I've tried Heidi hair before and it always looks stupid on me. You look very nice.
Love your site:smiley:
Hope everything goes well with the family
LOVES those glass,want to get me some
Hi Heidi...I mean Lavendar,
I do like the glasses, where abouts in the Swiss alps did you get them?
I won't yodel on forever,
Just thought I would stop by and say a qiuck hello.
Hugs, wardybeast
I LOVE your hair in that picture, and the glasses are trey sexy no? hehe.. good pics for this blog (as usual right?) It’s good to have family visiting one for motivation (hmmm maybe I should invite my mother over oy) and also to help get your mind on other things. Even being taxi and listening to the bickering (which am sure is lovingly done hehe) will prbly be a nice change for a little while. Have lots of fun hon, I’m thinking of you over here in my little part of the world. Peace…
Hey woman I am still around but barely at the moment, trying hard to get another computer and hopefully maybe this weekend will get back online. Keep fingers crossed. Talk to you soon ((((((Lav)))))
I love the glasses...
I wanted to pass on soem info about swiffers. There have been some isolated incidences of pets having liver failure that has been linked to ingredients from the cleaning solution in Swiffers Wet Jets.
Apparently one of the active ingredients has a similar chemical make up as antifreeze. You may want to check into it.
Have fun with the fam!
In regards to the excersize Tim and I did in our journals...It's definately okay with me... and I'm sure Tim wouldn't mind either. I hope it helps you cause it has really helped us both!
XOXO - good luck!
Aaah, the threat of impending relatives, I know it well. Good luck! HUGS

Oooo, drama queen/diva glasses in a Swiss Miss hairstyle.Cool Beans!(You see I never mentioned Heidi..that one doesnt count)! I know what you mean what the relatives. I had the chance to get this wonderful framed poster titled Witchcraft in Salem but we nixed the idea 'cause we didn't want my Southern Baptist in-laws to see or my very vocal 9 yr old to blab about it. LOL.

No fair. Fishy got two links.
