the fun i have had or have planned.


everyone is too sweet. thanks for the kudos on my first cake, hopefully i'll get better or just get smart and have my sister do it for me. she has some serious mad skills. check this out.

we went to a super fun family surprise party to celebrate my Brother Bruce's graduationas a secondary Ed science teacher. he was totally shocked. and they had an awesome turn out. and WE GOT TO GO ALONE! kid free! whoohoo on that! my mother in law let them come over for the evening, while we went. and it was so nice to not have to worry about feeding or watching all of them, and keeping them tamed.

i took some pictures we'll see how fast i get them uploaded.

UGH! my virus scan is running now, Lance has it set to start at 2am every night, it totally takes all the memory in our computer and slows it way way down, it DRIVES ME NUTS. i think he thought no one would be online when he picked the time for it to run. HA! double HA! yeah i need to go to bed.

exciting day tomorrowTODAY! i get to meet another blog friend and chat with one i only met for a second before. and see this fun friend TOO! yay! blog lunch.

it's pretty funny when i tell Lance, and then say how i know them or who they are. he knows about some since i talk about some pretty regularly. and some friends he only knows by blog code names, just because he reads my comments. even though he's met them in real life before.

anyway. i have clothes laid out. since it will be a struggle to get out of the house in a timely manner. but i'm way excited, i hope i can find something to wear. who cares if the kids look like crap if i do? there will definitely be pictures. tuesday afternoon. whoohoo! since today is tomorrow already.

so that is what I've been up to. or am looking forward to. um loved the cake it was so moist and delicious! and was so darn cute until one of the kids knocked it over and the top fell off. Oh well! i'm ready to chuck it just to get it out of the way on the counter.

ok. so that is it , no time to blog in the morning.


so questions?

what time does your virus scan run? do you have one?

how do you describe your blog friends to your husband? or other non bloggers?

do you discuss them in normal conversations?
how do you refer to me ? if you do.

did you see that cool cake my sister and my mom made?
now you know why i think i have no skills.

do you lay out clothes the night before for everyone?


hugs! have a FAB day!

In conversation with Todd, I call you "Crazymama." It took him a couple times, but now he knows.

I saw the frog gut cake! Incredible! And very cool. Gross, but cool.

I very rarely lay out clothes for the next day. I can't remember the last time I did.

Have fun at the blog lunch!!

I rarely lay out clothes for the next day. Sometimes on Sat night before church, but usually, my boys refuse to wear what I've layed out so it back fires.

I actually try not to refer to blogging in everyday conversations. I think it makes me sound pathetic. Which I am. But still.

Yes I have virus scan. I actually have two different programs that run. The problem is that each stops the other and asks for permission to allow it to run. Too often they just don't run and I have to manually run the programs myself. If I was more computer savy I'd figure out how to fix the problem. But the way I see it is if I learn how to do it then I'll be expected to do it. I prefer 'low expectations'.

When I attempt to discuss blog friends my husband gets that 'glazed over' expression so the conversation is pretty one sided.

I saw the frog cake. Shocking! but Very Cool.

Clothes that get laid out tend to stay there for too long. I've usually changed by mind when the next day comes. You know, a woman's prerogative.

Have a super fun lunch. Those ladies are awesome. If I knew where you were having lunch I would probably crash the party!

You seriously make me laugh. I can tell how busy things are by the tone in your lines and I think I sound like that when I talk. Does that make sense?!?

My virus scanner is et at 2 a.m. also. Should be later, I've been known to stay up that late blogging!

I talk about my bloggy friends as I would my normal friends and your name is Jullie, not crazy mama-or I would have to start justifying more stuff!

Your sister's cake is just plain amazing...I love it! Very creative! I think your cake was great, by the sounds of it I was expecting something MUCh worse. But, it was awesome!

No, I usually don't lay out my clothes due to our extreme weather changes it never pays off!

Have fun at your lunch and take lots of pics!

♡ Virus scan... 6pm just because usually I'm making dinner or we're eating dinner and no ones on the computer.

Blog friends... By first name. You would be Julie. My husband only knows a couple of the names. Usually I'll just say in a blog I read... (I read to many and I don't want him to know HOW many) HA :)

LOVE the cake! You saw my lousy excuse for decorating! Mad skills... Ha I don't have ANY!

Clothes... I only lay them out if we're getting up really early in the morning. As for myself I don't usually lay them out but I think about what I want to wear and then go from there.

Have a fun day!!!

I use 2 blog names I to my husband. You and a complete loser that I don't what my kids to now who I am talking about. (Family stuff.)

Have fun today. I only laid clothes out in high school when I had cute clothes to lay out!

Jenifer said...

Can't wait for lunch! I am way excited. I have no excuse for being late since it is practically in my front yard, but I'll be late anyway.
I do call you crazymama. However, when I introduced you to Sammy as that, I felt bad. I do realize you have a name:)
I make Nate read other blogs, or I read them out loud to him. He is patient with me. We have fun with it.
I don't lay clothes out the night before, but I only have two kids that are older. That wouldn't wear the clothes I picked out for them!

Leslie said...

I refer to you as crazymama and all my imediate family are aware of who you are!! Isnt that funny..anyway, I only lay clothes out if we have somewhere important to be and we have to be on time and on sundays but I still find myself ironing in the morning...now we have 3pm church so i may procrastinate laundry till sunday morning...oops did I say that.

And love the frog cake...I wish I had cake skills but I dont.

Jamie said...

I just refer to other bloggers as blog buddies. If I know them or have met them I say so.

Virus scan???? JK, I really have no idea.
I only lay clothes out if we are going to church or somewhere really important and I kmow I do not want any last minute problems!!

tammy said...

Fun lunch! Want to hear all about it. You are brave. I am chicken to meet blog friends most of the time. What if I don't measure up to what they had in mind??

Sometimes I refer to my blog friends as that, other times I just call them my friends. Luvpilot laughs at my social blog life. And I do discuss them in normal conversations. And send links to their funny posts to other people that may not read their blogs.

Sometimes I lay clothes out. Like for the boys during the school year. It helps them get ready faster. And then I can pick what they wear so they look cute. And match. Not each other, just the top with the bottom.

Jenn said...

grose and oddly very humorous! She has a ton of cake making talent!

And I read your post about getting with the blog friends before I read this one so I am posting about both--- since this one mentions geting ready for it! I am so envious that you have gone out and made friends physically and not just on a computer blogger basis! I think that is too fun!

And my virus scan must be in the middle of the night! I don't really know for sure though!

Jenn said...

Oh- and you are crazymama in conversation with husband. And there are probably only three or four bloggers I ever talk about that aren't already friends in real world.

Nat Nat said...

Talk about people all the time from blogging and from IM'ing at work. Mostly by code name and he has no clue. But pretends to listen. LOL

Love the cakes. Yours and hers. I am thinking you all have some mad skill. WOW!!!

I totally lay clothes out when it's a big day, and sundays. Because I am a zombie in the mornings and hate the running around. We are late everywhere we go no matter what I do.And late drives me crazy!!
