I have PTSD in a vehicle (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)

from the Truck accident. What I had thought only with Nate's drivin'

until today......

I met up with Kris and we went scrapbook shoppin'. We needed in the left lane and to turn at the next light on Mill Plain Blvd., and we were in the middle lane. Our light turned green , the turn light we need was red. She sped up and turned on her turn signal, head checked, and went. However, there wasn't quite enough room for her " Mommy Missile" but she just went. She had totally cut them off. We got the long honk as they passed us. She just laughed as I checked to see if I actually peed the seat. She said she head checked, and it's not cuttin' them off if you head check.

This is where I totally laughed at her comment.

Question of the day...

So I can head check and still go even if the car is beside me????

It's not cuttin' them off if I head check???? OMG !

I love you Kris !

I'm still laughin' at your comment!!!!

Please leave me your comment on what your oppion

on cutting someone off is.....

Before I had that wonderful expierence of pissin' my panties. We had met up at Kris' house. She told me she had to grab her hard copies of photos. This is what she came out with......

The puzzled look on my face was because it's not the over stuffed

accordian file she hauls everywhere with her.

Ladies and Gentlemen we are down to a 1" - 2" file.

I thought this day would never come, so I had to add it to my blog.

It is so blog worthy!

Way to go Kris!

Krispy Kream's

"I'll have water please."

Thanks Kris ...hehehe!

This was hard!

Today Bailey had a job shadow at Krispy Kream's for school, where they get to go in and learn how every thing is ran. Well the plan was to have mom and I show up and kinda harass him. By the time I had got there they were done and just doing the paperwork portion of it. All they got to do was stand where everyone else does and an employee came out and explained each job position to them. So I called mom and told her to not worry about coming as they were leaving.

Snow, Snow, Snow!

I'm honestly sick of the Snow!

I had tried to get good pictures of this tree with our first snow storm and never could get them beacuse it was all icy and didn't look this good.

I love the look of this tree covered in snow!

Today I Kris' crop she had at her at the church.

We had such a great time

" CHILLIN' " !

Kris rippin' threw the pages. Something like 9 double page layouts,

plus 1 single page.

Go Gyrl!

Then she happened to notice what all I brought to the crop. Uggghhhhh!

Please keep in mind cher & I had condensed Kris down to this new way of packing for a crop. It's called the one trip in the door method. She use to come in about 4 trips with one heaping load of stuff, a huge box, and 2 arm fulls of bags. Now she is down to this new way because of us.

Kris' bags

The Super Streamlined Crop Luggage!

Then she looked over at mine.

Wow did I get heckled for this the rest of the day.

Usually it's just the purple roll tote and the bag on top. But I haven't cropped somewhere other then my desks, or the Coke room in probley a year. So I had to bring all the paint I owned white box, all my chipboard letters Nordstroms bag,And all my blank chipboard, & fibers in pink bag since I was making my own books out of chipboard. I do have to stand up and say I did use something out of each bag though.
Hers & Mine !
Me & Kris
( She's still laughin' at me even in the picture )
LYLAS BABE!

Famous Bai quote

" OMG ! why are you takin' pictures of me mom"

It is rare if I'm out takin' picts of my boys I don't get one of these from Colty.

Colton wreckin'
Bai wreckin'

These type of pictures have become my favoites in the last few weeks. I keep having to explain to the boys everyone has to learn how to do things to become better, and I hate to say when it comes to skateboarding wrecks will be involved.

I love you both!

Today I got up went to the Dr. for my left shoulder, met up with Kris and we went to A Joy Forever scrapbook store in Milwaukie, Or. then to lunch and to see a friend who works at Tulley's. Then I get home and I'm starting to sneeze alot and get a runny nose. By the time 5 0'clock came around I swear I have blown sneezed and dripped 5 00 gallons out of my nose. I then dose up with Nyquil, curl up in my Lambie blanket, a box of kleenex, a snot box, and my favoirte couch and off to sleep I went.

Today I took the kids to the Battle Ground skate park as soon as they got home. It was so cold out I regreted it as soon as I stepped outside. The park was kinda busy and it sucks to get good pictures when it's like that. So I promised they can skip the 1/2 day of school friday adn we'll go get better picts. hopefully no one there then.

I had to ask Bai what they were doin' in the pictures as I'm not cool and I don't know all the lingo that goes with sk8 boarding.

Today I called Brandy to see if she wanted to hang out. She had to go lookin' for snow boots for her trip back home to Utah. Perfect! So we met up and went to a few stores looking. But of course retail is a season ahead and good luck findin' any now right after our artic blast we just had. We ended up at Cisco's for chips and salsa and great GYRL CHAT. So when we went back to my car, I wanted to take a pict with her even though we both weren't really wanting to have a pict taken today we did. So this day is dedicated to Brandy a great friend I had met while I was working at Chevron. We have even went quadin' together but it was a sad reality check for me. I went from seeing daily to once and awhile.

WE NEED TO DO IT MORE OFTEN GYRL!

BAD PICT OF ME EWWWGH!

January 19, 2009

Today I learned something from Colton.

He was just so proud to teach me this.

" Mom grab a straw (the bendy kind work best) then you need to lift your arm, insert the long part of the straw into your armpit. Next you angle the bendy part under your shirt where others can't see but you can access this with your mouth. Now you walk into a room of people and sit down. Casually look around and lean into your shirt where you can blow into the straw. Blow as long or as hard as you want."

foot note- you might want to try this prior to your first audience. You can control the sounds by certian placement.

WOW ! the great things I learn from my boys! I just love them to death!

January 18, 2009

Today was a long day for Nater & I. We woke up knowing we had to lay laminate flooring down in my mom & dad's bedroom for them. WE are useto doing this as we have done our basement our kids room and he showed his brother how to lay their whole house. This room was cake, until we go to the closet. My mom's closet orginizer was unable to be removed. GRRRR!Nate with his bumm knees and my 2 bad shoulders we were a pair. However it is done and we will pay for this all week long.

Today was so beautiful out side I snatched up my camera and was able to capture these great shots.

My 3 dorks! Colton, Bailey, & Gunner

Of course we can't sit still for the 2nd one either.

Look She's clean!

Check out her sparkle and her 18" chrome!

Today started out oh so cold and frosty but ended up being a bright but chilly day. Since I haven't drove my car in almost a month, I had decided I would give her a bath, she was pretty filthy. Now she is beautiful again, but with regrets. With having both shoulders having problems this wasn't the smartest idea I had. So as I'm icing both shoulders, and Nater is yellin' at me, I just smile & keep thinkin' she is very sparkley again.

January 15, 2009

Today I had a friend call me and ask me to go to lunch. So I turned her down and the next thing I know after talking a few minutes she peer pressured me into going.

But after the usual girlfriend conversation we ordered.

This is the oddest thing ever we totally ordered opposite. She usually orders all healthy and I usually order a burger or something like that. But today this was a little strange
Mine ...french onion soup, and salad.

Hers...Bacon cheese burger sliders.

I just thought this was funny and I wanted to share a funny moment I had with you.

Cher Schmidt, Me, & Kris Gray

(taken about 3 years ago)

Today I had recieved an email with a link to You Tube from a very good friend of mine Cher Schmidt. I would like to try to add the video so you may view it from this page.( keep in mind that I may not be able to post the video on here so you may have to use the link )
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_4qwVLqt9Q

I am not posting a picture I have taken today. Instead I am wanting you to watch the video, & think of all your friends and how important they are to you, and how much they have changed your life.

Take today to honor them!

My friends are just as important to me as my family is. I love them with all my heart. After losing 3 people in my life that meant the world to me I have learned some people are in your life and no matter how sad it is you may need to let them go even though you do care, and then there is the rest of the people still there. I have learned you need to let people know how you feel. I am not the type of person who is the one to tell you all that you mean the world to me each and every day, but I do love each and everyone of you. I am always thinkin about each and every person in my life everyday, always wondering what they are doing right at that moment and if they are safe.For the freinds who live far away please remember I am thinking about each of you every day. So today I dedicate my blog to all my firends & family - I love each and everyone of you!

Thanks for being apart of my life & helping me find who I am!
