Fun to be a Kid!

   Posted by: vw bug   in Mom

Gotta love those boys. They keep me wishing I was a kid again. They decided to use some pillows and themselves to make letters of the alphabet. I’ll let you guess before I give you the answers…

I think this was the easiest to figure out:

It took me a few seconds to get this one right:

And I was totally off on this one and guessed it wrong… can you get it?

Hmmmm… And have you finished clicking on the pictures and checking it out? Ok, here you go for the answers… t, b, h… Yep, made me smile and take pictures. Life is good, yes?

Deadlines, Yearbooks and Life

   Posted by: vw bug   in Mom, pd

Seems that the almighty has a really warped sense of humor. I’m on two different antibiotics, found out that I have high cholesterol and two deadlines looking at me to get the work done. By 8pm at night, I’m exhausted. But during the day I’m busy with life… kids, food, housework, doctor appointments… I just can’t seem to do the late nights anymore. Maybe I should give it all up to start postcard printing with ‘family pictures’ included. I’m getting pretty good at putting pictures on paper! Then I would be making money and not mind all the insanity of family life with deadlines. Wish me luck…

Where Did The Week Go?

   Posted by: vw bug   in Mom, pd

Two deadlines, yellow snot, backache, playdate and… life just doesn’t stop for me. New friends for my oldest and youngest to play with today. If I can just get my stuff together. I’m going to have to find the best anti wrinkle cream to start using so I don’t look so much older than the other moms. I want to have playdates for my boys, but geeze I feel so old sometimes when we do that. And I find it hard to talk about things we have in common besides children. Maybe this mom loves math. I might have a chance. Maybe. Last one was a scientist. Hope for this one right?

My mistake

   Posted by: vw bug   in Mom, pd

Have you ever done a search for something, found what you thought you were looking for only to realize you totally screwed it up? I was interested in cholesterol and searched on HGH… right? Uhhh No. I found hgh supplements listed and it had nothing to do with cholesterol. HDL is nothing like HGH… sigh. I think I need to go back and watch the Olympics some more… I really enjoyed seeing Apolo Ohno skate. Yep. I think I’m off to watch some speed skating. Not sure who is running yet but at least I don’t have to think much. ;-) Gotta love those Tivo recorders to record stuff for you to watch anytime of the day. Laundry and Olympics go together right?

My Brother-in-law rocks

   Posted by: vw bug   in Mom, pd

The government needs a good colon cleanse of the budget. Or so I believe… but on a different politic note… my brother-in-law (bil) wrote a great letter to the Republican party… Here’s a teaser:

Please stop wasting time, money and effort sending out moronic surveys with questions

Ok ok… go HERE to read the whole thing. Well worth the effort. Since this is the same man that wanted to fund our war by allowing businesses and individuals to buy ad space on the bombs we were dropping on the al qaeda instead of using taxpayer money. I posted on it somewhere. Just can’t find it now. Yep, life is good when I have surrounded myself with so many smart people.

The economy is so bad that I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.

The economy is so bad I ordered a burger at McDonalds and the kid behind the

The economy is so bad that CEO’s are now playing miniature golf.

The economy is so bad if the bank returns your check marked “Insufficient
Funds,” you call them and ask if they meant you or them.

The economy is so bad Hot Wheels and Matchbox stocks are trading higher than GM.

The economy is so bad McDonalds is selling the 1/4 ouncer.

The economy is so bad parents in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and learned
their children’s names.

The economy is so bad a truckload of Americans was caught sneaking intoMexico .

The economy is so bad Dick Cheney took his stockbroker hunting.

The economy is so bad Motel Six won’t leave the light on anymore.

The economy is so bad the Mafia is laying off judges.

The economy is so bad Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen.

And finally…

Congress says they are looking into this Bernard Madoff scandal.

Oh Great!! The guy who made $50 Billion disappear is being investigated by the
people who made $15 TRILLION disappear!

More on vitamins

   Posted by: vw bug   in Mom, pd

I couldn’t resist. For those wondering what I do take it is: Ester-C (per my immunologist), MSM and glucosamine (per my doctor for my mild arthritis), and I added a daily woman’s vitamin. What the heck. I have considered changing it to one of those anti aging vitamin types… see if it would make all my problems go away. Or at least my wrinkles. Seems Bou doesn’t want to look like a Shar-Pei dog that I mentioned in my previous Post. Neither do I, but I see wrinkles more and more every day. Just look at my elbows and between my eyes. Sigh…

Vitamin Discussion

   Posted by: vw bug   in Mom, pd

Seems that the more I learn the less I know. If you take calcium, you should be taking the half the amount in magnesium. And you shouldn’t take more than 400mg of calcium at a shot… but you should be getting 1000mg of calcium if you are my size per day. Ugh… I don’t eat enough to get that much. I am overweight as it is… But I need to have calcium.. sigh..

I have been taking a woman’s daily vitamin but joked with my mom about I should go back to prenatal vitamins. Then my sister called me yesterday and told me she is taking them. She needs them. She has deficiencies. And my sister eats the right stuff… not like me. Makes me wonder if it runs in our family. Getting old sucks.
