Real Mature

Daniel wanted Matt to call him so I texted Matt to phone his son. So he did, and then after a bit Daniel handed me the phone and I asked Matt to talk to Daniel about using the potty on a more regular basis. Well Matt got all pissed off at me how he didn’t want to talk about that and when I said “well he might listen to you more since you are his daddy” he went “oh dear god” and then hung up on me.

What a fantastic person huh.

Beef Stew

I took some beef stew meat, seasoned and coated in flour, I then browned the meat. I then deglazed the pan and slapped in some celery and carrot and onion. I tossed all of that into the crock pot with some fresh thyme, quartered red potatoes, 2 cloves of garlic, and a large can of pureed tomatoes. I let that cook on high for four hours. I also made buttermilk biscuits in the shape of an oak leaf.

Uhh Hi

I haven’t blogged because I don’t want to seem so bitchy.

I got myself a pasta maker thing today. $30 and it cuts spaghetti and something else I can’t remember heh.

Daniel is such a sweet boy, he said earlier at the bank that my sister’s boyfriend was his friend!

So… yeah *waves* hi!

You know I’ve been waiting too long

So I put a whole chicken into the oven with butter, garlic, and lemon to roast. I cleaned up the kitchen itself. Right now attempting to work on the bedroom.

I paid my sr22 joy.

My birthday is on Monday.

Glitter? Yes please!

Wow does this night suck

I actually HEAR my father going through my garbage bags (by the front door to be taken out) and actually cussing me out to himself! About MY garbage! Is he jealous of my garbage or something? There is something so… completely disgusting about it. It makes me feel violated.

Yeah Good Morning to Me

First off, I was woken out of a sound sleep at 1:30am with a raging migraine. So I stumbled around to find my pills and so I medicated myself and finally passed back out.

So then when I got up for work, my father didn’t even say a word to me this morning, you know my FATHER can’t even acknowledge my birthday.

So I am at work, and my boss calls and starts getting ranty to me because a customer went psycho on her over the weekend. I remember the customer because he went off on me. He had work done in 1998 started having problems, called ANOTHER company and they are digging up his yard. NOW he says that OUR work from 1998 is the cause of the problem and an appointment was set up last Wednesday for Chris to go out there and verify it wasn’t our pipe. Well apparently Chris didn’t go. The guy NEVER called the office back so I never knew Chris didn’t go. So back to this morning. She is ranty on me that the guy said I was “extremely rude” when I asked him for his work order number. Umm not only was the work done in 1998 and like everything is paper based and organized by work order number but I KNOW I am NEVER rude!! So then he claims I rescheduled him for Saturday! Um NO!! I never schedule NON paid work on Saturdays (like stopping by, estimates, etc are NON PAID WORK) and so then he went off about police and all sorts of crap to my boss. So I am telling her. NO he did not make an appointment for Saturday and so on and then shes all “well whatever happened Joe (owner) will be going today” it drives me NUTS that she NEVER takes my side. Even when the customer is screaming and cussing at HER she just assumes I fucked up somehow!

So yeah, not even 30 minutes into my work day.

Rambling Fun

Thank you so much everyone for the lovely emails, cards, e-cards, and comments for my birthday!

Today I spent over 2 hours trying to get some White Sox world series tickets for my boss lol it did not work as planned. I was going insane and got a migraine from it! Yay for my excedrin stash!

I would write more but well, it’s getting late and I can’t seem to form thoughts.

Today So Far

It’s really lovely outside today. When I get home I am going to take Daniel on a long walk (he will ride his bike). I also need help figuring out dinner. So… HELP haha.

I also got asked out heh, go figure! This cute (but short and we all know I only go for tall guys since I’m tall and um yeah) guy stopped in reguarding metal something or other and I explained we don’t do retail blah blah and was showing him something outside when out of nowhere, “you have beautiful eyes” so I agreed, yes I have beautiful eyes thank you. I run in to grab a business card and he says, “it would be a shame if you had a boyfriend” and I’m thinking yeah it would be a REAL SHAME and I said, “well I don’t but um ok here’s the card” and then it happens. “Would you like to maybe go out sometime?” I just couldn’t help but think, what in the world is going on this week! I must be emitting I NEED SEX vibes or something. So I am nice “no thank you” and he goes “well I thought I would ask” so I am all BYE BYE NOW.

So yeah.

Onto other news. Everyone must go Imagine and if anything view the video. I was trying so hard not to cry hysterically watching that.

I realised. I love Ikea. Ikea loves me. I shall spend a lot of money at Ikea the next few months. (Why yes I have come up with a money plan that includes massive Ikea goodness between now and January)

Mmmm crisp bottled purified water. How I like thee just enough even though you do not have bubbles.

I am SO COLD

So yeah the freaking heater is broken! This morning one of the guys turned on the heat and I was all oh damn, because the air coming out… feels just like air conditioning when it’s set to like 48 lol. So I put a call in to the heating guys and left a message. I will call back in a little bit because uh I am COLD!

I like apples.

What should I buy at the grocery store today? I would like to incorporate new recipes this week so, share share!

I’ve been thinking lately that I need to cast off all of my old thoughts/views on people. I know I am being vague here. I’m talking about gossiping, being snippy, etc with no valid reason. I shouldn’t have to feel that I can’t be friends with or talk to people simply because other friends of mine don’t like a person or group. I am my own person and shouldn’t need other people to validate my feelings and opinions.

Did I mention it was cold?

Ok the guy called me back and is coming over to at least stop it from pumping out cold air. That would be nice indeed!

I Like to Ramble

I need to write more about the joy that is my son.

I love how when I do something SO simple like making pastry dough and he watches as the dry and wet ingredients form this smooth doughy goodness, he looks at me with those blue eyes so wide and says, “WOW momma HOW DID YOU DO THAT!!!!” like I somehow managed to sprinkle glitter from the sky. (which by the way would be AWESOME!)

Autumn Boy

After work we went to the forest preserve. Doesn’t my son look like a pixie the way he wore his hat? Oh and remember to visit my photolog, Visionary Muse to see all of the photos from today (just keep hitting previous lol).
