Proud of both my boys today! Bragging rights, please!

Kristopher plays soccer and last week his daddy told him that when he kicks the ball he needs to follow through and go with it. Meaning, stay with the ball! I told Kris that for each goal he'd earn $1 ... last week he got 3 goals. Today, he got 5. Thank God there are only 2 games left! LOL

and now to Jake~
He was given the game ball, for the most effort in his baseball game today!! This is the boy that cried and cried when he didn't want to practice and when he wanted to quit!

2 years ago Jake had the coach he has this year and that coach taught Jake how to be a catcher ... last year Jake was the catcher for another coach. This year, Jake refused to catch, made all kinds of excuses (laziness!!)...The coach knew that is where Jake belonged. In fact, the coach and I have talked about it...

Well, tonight, the coach said to Jake "If you want to play you have to catch" ... Jake said fine.

OMG OMG OMG did he ever do outstanding!! That IS his position! The coaches were all so proud of him...that is where my boy belongs, behind the plate!

Tonight Jake was on cloud 9...I'm on cloud 9! Even though they lost.

So, I treated Jake to a brand new.........(well, he never had one) ..........

























CUP. Yep, I had to take Jake to get a penile protector. LOL Boy was that a hoot! He also earned new cleats, I wasn't buying him a new pair until he showed me he wanted to be there. Not that I was letting him ever quit, but I wasn't buying him a pair to do half-ass playing.

Thanks to both my boys for making your mom very very proud of you today!

Another way to earn a few bucks ...

while sittin' at the 'puter!





Only thing is that you have to earn $30 before you can request your money. They have a $5 signing bonus ... and so far, I've had many many surveys to fill out. BUT am only at $6.02. LOL I'll play with it a bit more...

IT'S ALL LEGIT!

Happy Mother's Day to me...Happy Mother's Day to me...

Happy Mother's Day to meeeeeeeee...............Happy Mother's Day to me!!

Just a little equation, first:
What I wanted for Mom's Day...one of those KitchenAid mixers, but so damn expensive!! Plus, I don't bake, so it would have been used maybe 2 x's a year on mashed potatoes. LOL

What I needed...clothes. I have work clothes...I REFUSE to wear them now!

What I got...TATTOO!!!

What I would have gotten ... N O T H I N G

Frank, Juliana, and I went to lunch w/one of Frank's friends and I had to go to the bathroom. So, I'm sitting there, peeing, looking at my beloved Skechers flip flops (I have 4 pairs of them in different colors/designs and since becoming a SAHM LIVE in them) and thought, how nice a tattoo would look right at the top of the strap ... and just like that I thought of 3 hearts (for each of my babes), something easy, inexpensive, and with meaning. All of this while peeing and looking at feet (ew) ... 30 mins later I was at the Tattoo Parlor w/my new BFF, the same that did my other 2 tats.

Oh, and my NBFF would not let me leave until she touched up my rose on the underside of my wrist, I didn't know it was so faded, it looks wonderful!

By the way, I do understand that I need a pedicure ... and I know I have ugly toes. ;)

I totally forgot!

I adopted my black 3 - legged cat from the Humane Society (yes, 3 legs!) and with him came an index card. His previous owner was an elderly man, that lost his wife, who left him with 4 grown cats. He couldn't care for them, so took them into the Humane Society. With each one of the cats he had an index card ... written on the card was what each cat liked. A few odd things were on Petey's card.
~Petey loves to eat honeydew melon & cantaloupe.

I didn't remember this until the other night, the kids were eating cantaloupe and Jake left his plate of rhines (how is that spelled?) on the floor...




Petey was in heaven! It's been at least 4 years since he has had any ...


After a bit, Hayden arrived to see what all the fuss was about... Frank and I were watching him and it was like Hayden was thinking: "I don't get it, man" LOL

J and the 3 bears, I mean boys...

Juliana was outside playing with her 'friends' (as she calls them) ... there were 3 of them, all boys, all age 7, one of them being her brother Kris. This is how she returned to me:








Chalk, mud, grass, water, stones, dirt, and Lord knows what else!

Dude...

I have a blog! Hi there!!

I promised and now I really have to deliver!

I found a writing assignment in Kristopher's backpack a few weeks ago and I've had it on the fridge because on the back it says "I love my mom" and I thought that was just great...Today, I really tried to figure out what the entire thing said, and I did.

I'm going to type it just as he wrote it.

My Mom Mit bi me a liza. I im hape! I like lizas! I am rele hapy! I love my mom.

(My mom might buy me a lizard. I am happy! I like lizards! I am really happy! I love my mom.)

And yes, I promised him a tiny lizard (Geico) when we moved to Colorado.

Where did I find that deal?

~~~ I read and read and read as much as I can on the deals that I 'do' and about 90% of them I find on the internet. Within the last week another 'coupon board' that I was on went sour. It's still there, but it was sold and turned into a bunch of corporate bull...SO now, I have a new home w/a ton of the same wonderful deal seeking woman~~~

If I can get free toothpaste and free body wash and dirt cheap frozen pizza, so can you :)

Make some money...

I found a site on a coupon board of mine, A Full Cup, where you click on ads and earn money. And yes, it's that easy!! Here, this will help, I totally snagged this description below from my sister's blog :) She's good! (I did not use the 'form' letter, just her description)

The form letter they gave to me to send out is below but I think it’s confusing and sounds fake so I’m going to explain it the best I can. It’s a site where companies pay you to view their websites. All you do is fill out a few surveys about your likes/dislikes/hobbies/interests, etc. and then they send you links. The links are actually fun companies and I've almost made a few purchases as I'm clicking away. When you click on the links, you get paid. One click=$. It’s usually about .20 per link but I’m already up to $5 and I’ve only been on today. My sister has been doing it for a few days and got paid today through Paypal and a few of her online friends have also gotten paid several times so it’s legit. I actually Googled the company and it’s gotten good write-ups on eHow and this blog and this blog and here. I could go on but you get my drift; I wouldn’t steer you wrong. It’s SUPER easy. I made my first $3 while checking my email. It’s all legit, trust me I read EVERY SINGLE word in the Terms of Agreement . Did I mention how easy it is??? You won't get rich but you'll get some change for your pocket---oh no--that reminds me, I have to go play Tooth Fairy!

Goodness, I hope my niece got some money from the Tooth Fairy!!

I received $4.02 yesterday in my Paypal account. Do you know how much a couponer can get for $4.02? I'll prove it to you tomorrow after I shop the Kmart Double Days :o)

Anyway, go here and sign up, you really don't have anything to loose.

It reminds me of Pap...



Jake made this in school and gave it to me for a 'last day of work' gift....As he was handing it to me he said "It reminds me of Pap" ... Any guess of why?


That's a cigar hanging out of the Frog's mouth. *hehehehehehe*

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree...

Growing up I can remember playing 'make believe' with my cat, Mosey. I used to put him in a stroller and push him around. I used to 'make' him play board games or Uno with me (oh, cats ARE so smart!) ... I would even play school with him.

I know my dad, mom and sister can attest to all of that.

Here is my apple and HER cat (playing 'kitchen'):
Check it out, he even has a cup of wine!
