I found this great little store online that sells nice wooden toys. Its a very small company that is just starting out, but there stuff looks really nice. I think I will give them a little bit longer before I order something, just to see if they might expand there merchandise. They are obviously just starting out. Yesterday was the first day they added merchant services so you can order online with a credit card. So....they are very new...lol! If I end up ordering something, I will definitely tell you how it goes and if the toys are as good as they appear to be. *Crossing my fingers*

I can't wait until tax return time. I was just sitting here thinking about it. I know it's still several months away, but I can dream..lol! This year we are paying off bills and/or catching up on bills. It will be a huge relief. Of course we will probably take a little bit of it and buy a few things we've been wanting to get, but most will go to bills. Which I am happy about. I can't wait to get caught up!

The few things we will be getting though are 1) our dog fixed. 2) a mat for under our desk chair from a office furniture store. 3) new curtains and a rug for the living room. That's pretty much it I think. I am really looking forward to the rug for the living room. We have hardwood floors and it will be nice to have a cushy spot to walk on..lol! I'm hoping it will catch some of the dust bunnies too. So do you have any plans yet for tax return? Or am I the only one thinking about it already..lol!

Ok...I spend a LOT of time on Facebook. I play several games on there that require a good amount of time and commitment. One of them is Farmtown. In Farmtown you grow your own farm. You start out with a very small farm with a few plots and and as you move up in levels you can expand your farm...mine is the largest one you can get now. You plow, plant, and harvest your crops. If you don't want to harvest and plow, you can hire one of your neighbors(friends) to do it or you can hire someone from the marketplace. The marketplace is where you go to hire someone, or find a job. Its basically a chatroom....your little avatars enter the room and you can walk them around, talk to people and get hired. You can also click on the people to add them as a buddy. I have a lot of buddies and am always accepting new ones...this is where it got weird the other day.

I accepted a buddy request from a person. Well the person started messaging me every time I would get on Farmtown. Asking how I was, what I was doing. He said he was 9 years old. At first I bought it, but a few things he said made me question it. Well I saw in my facebook notifications where he sent me a message ...again...well the name does not match up and I'm pretty sure he's not 9! How creepy is that! To have some 40 year old guy messaging you, while pretending to be a child! Weirdo Alert! I have obviously been ignoring him, and am hoping he loses interest and moves on to someone else...although I feel sorry for that person..lol! Ugh..why do all the creepy people seem to find me?

I've been laying on the couch for three days now. Luckily I have a laptop or I would of went crazy by now. I have spent the last three days on the internet....either on facebook playing games, on a weight loss forum that I frequent quite often, or looking up random stuff because I was just plain bored. I've looked up Christmas stuff, music, ordered some movies, I even looked up a cad drawing for a drill..that was for the hubby obviously..lol! Oh and I also slept a LOT! I blame that on the pain meds though, they make me very sleepy. I guess it's not a bad thing though...at least I wasn't in pain while I was sleeping..lol! See there's a bright side to everything...

Its been a little over a year since we moved into our current house. When we moved in we put down brand new carpet in all three bedrooms, the rest of the house is hardwood floors. We chose a very neutral light tan color for all the rooms. Well, I'm starting to think that was a really bad decision..especially for my daughters room..lol! I don't know what she does, but I am always cleaning up spots on her carpet. I think I might eventually invest in a Ladybug cleaner. I hate seeing brand new carpet covered in stains...it almost breaks my heart..lol! Darn kids!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday. We went to my husbands grandparents house a couple of hours away. The drive wasn't too bad, the kids were pretty good for the most part...lol! Dinner was very good, and that's where all my fun time stopped. I got up from the table to take care of my dinner plate, and a pain shot through my back. It was excruciating...and almost made my needs give in. So.....I spent the next three days laying on the couch and taking pain meds...what a fun weekend huh? Ugh! Of course no cleaning was done while I was laying on the couch either, so now I get to do that..fun fun! I hope your weekend was better than mine..lol!

My hubby's Aunt and Uncle are on the road again. They have moved from Michigan to Arizona to Michigan and now to New Hampshire. Talk about cross country moving...lol! That's way to much moving for me...heck going to the kitchen is too much moving for me..LOL! I wish them all the best with this last move though. Hopefully they will find a great apartment and get settled in quickly...Do they get snow in New Hampshire? I think they do...hahaha...you can't escape that! lol!

I hate it when the power goes out. It's went out several times this week, for no apparent reason. So of course that means resetting all of our clocks, resetting the Linksys router, and calming down a 2 year old when his beloved Spongebob suddenly disappears..lol! I swear that boy loves Spongebob more than me...lol..ok maybe not..but it's close.

Today I spent quite a bit of time cleaning and doing the mountain of laundry that has piled up so high that won't hold anymore..lol! I think I've done three loads already and I'm still going! Anyone want to come to Michigan and do my laundry? No? Pretty Please?!

That we have the dumbest dog in the world? I swear it's true..lol! Patches barks at anything and everything...stuff I can't even see. Yes, our dog barks at air..LOL! She's lucky she's cute and lovable and that I'm a sucker for her. She is the sweetest dog though, she loves the kids and loves playing with them. Here's a picture of her....isn't she cute? FYI She's a yorkie/bichon mix.

So, I think I've completely lost my mind. I am seriously considering getting my 6 year old daughter a tv for her room. See! I told you so! LOL! What am I thinking?! Well to be honest...I'm thinking I am sick to death of Spongebob and Dora......I have had enough, and I want some grown up shows! LOL!

So we are thinking for Christmas she might get one of those small tv's that mounts to the wall. I can't believe we are actually considering it, but its for our sanity! We barely have any left now...we need to save what little we have left!

Well today was a complete bust! I didn't do anything today...I think I literally sat on the couch all day..and its where I'm still sitting...lol! I've watched cartoons, watched more cartoons, and then I watched a few more cartoons. I played on Facebook most of the day. Facebook is good for wasting countless hours on. Trust me! I know! LOL!

I did a few internet searches looking for toys, weight loss stuff, the best fat burner, music videos, and a bunch of other useless stuff..lol! I swear if I got paid to waste time on the internet, I would be so rich by now. Like rolling on the bed in my money rich..LOL! Ok..tomorrow I need to be more productive....I can do it! lol!
