As per the debate of the new puppy's name?
We were set on calling the pup Sadie as long as she came out looking like a Sadie. She did not. Aside from OMG Lookitthetinytail! my first thought was, she doesn't look like a Sadie!
So the hubs bandied about a few manes, Ashes was rejected becuase the younger ones would say "Asses", Hubs also liked Blue but for obvious reasons, I did not. And I really, really liked Skittles, But hubs didn't.
In the end we felt that Smokey was something we could all live with, even if it is going to take me some time to get used to it!

...
Heart Palpitations
sudden, sweaty hot flashes
shortness of breath
trembling
I am beyond excited.
In three hours, I will be a dog owner.
three. hours.
not tomorrow - tonight!
BedBugs!
Ohh Just the thought of bedbugs gives me the heebie jeebies! It's like when the kids bring home the lice information newsletter, Immediately my skin starts to crawl and I am scratching like mad!
Bedbugs are not a myth, they really do live in homes AND bite us in our sleep. Do you have bed bugs? Do you know what signs of bed bugs to look for?
I wonder if bedbugs carry diseases like ticks and mosquitoes?

What Now?
*rolls up sleeves*
h'OK. We picked the name Sadie for our puppy. The one who is coming TOMORROW? With the provision that if she does not look like a Sadie we can call her something else. However, we have no real secondary back up type name picked out, so chance are ranging in the 99th percentile she will be named Sadie.
To that effect, when we talk about the puppy at home, we call her Sadie. When we talk with the boys about the puppy, it is not where will the puppy sleep, but where will Sadie sleep.
The children, Hubs and I are all pretty darn set on Sadie.
Now. I baby-sit a little girl Monday to Friday and her momma is having another baby in mid April. She does not want to know the sex of the child, but when I told her what we decided to name out Puppy, she got mad.
Apparently I am not allowed to use Sadie becuase She has reserved the rights to the name just.in.case. she has a girl.
What say you interwebs?

In-Law Relations
I just explained to my mother in law that I make money online., I used the word website, not blog, so I do not have to explain about BPR.
I love my inlaws but some days they are a challenge. I would NEVER want to be without them, however and I still contend that moving just feet away from them was a good idea.
For example. Today at school RM had his Pokemon cards stolen, I tried to ease his grief with by showing him the 60 card lot I bought on eBay for him. No go. They won't be here for a few days at least!
However, the in laws promptly shipped him off to the store and bough him a new set. It isn't the same as the set he lost, but it helped!

Two More Sleeps
- So far we have had success in not letting the boys know that Little Miss Pup is on her way.
- In TWO more sleeps!
- My Husbands aunt, a certified animal lover sent over a huge amount of dog food, puppy treats and a big chew bone thing that isn't a bone
- We are eating at the in-laws tonight
- we need them to watch the boys while we run to the city for a few last minute things
- Rainbow Man is smart, He is going to know something is up when we go out in the middle of the week.
- so long as we keep him in the dark for two more days, all is good.
- I'm SO excited.
- I had a hard time falling asleep last night.
- We need to buy a collar and leash, some puppy food, cus the stuff we got from Aunty is Adult dog food.
- Is there a difference? I think there is.. do you know?
- I'm so ill, I need to take some Tylenol and hit the shower.
- I accidentally published this on BPR.
- had to quick quick copy it and delete it from there.
- my head is ringing.
- later

The rise and fall of Obesity
In every prosperous nation, obesity is taking it's toll, not just on the folks suffering with it, but on the tax payers as our health care system tries to accommodate them and the varying side issues caused by being morbidly obese.

At Kingwood Lap band, Dr. Richard Collier specializes in the laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding procedure, most commonly referred to as the LAPBAND System.

Oye Vey
The worst part of my day is, without fail, between five PM and seven thirty PM.
Between those times I have to get off my butt and decide whats for dinner, and I never feel like cooking so even once I decide what we are having its a challenge for me to do it.
Then I have to sit at the table and fight with the children to eat eat eat. Yes even the beans. Just EAT!
Then I have to get the oldest to do his homework, which is pretty hard becuase i cannot read his writing and can only go on what he says has to be done.
Sigh.
bathing the younger two is easy, but getting the seven ear old to wash every part of his body, not just soap up his man parts, is a challenge and a half.
The last half hour of the day is easy, the boys think teeth brushing is a treat not a chore and story time is alwyas relaxing.
But oe, getting from five to seven thirty? Every day it makes me want to scream!

Need Ideas - Quick
OK. here's the deal.
Little Miss Puppy comes home Friday Afternoon. Or Saturday Afternoon. Either way, she joins our household before Sunday. The Seventh. The day I am to take my whole family to my dads. Where 20-30 other people will be.
How can I leave her at home after one or two days?
Impossible!
I want to bring little Miss Puppy to my dads. She can play outside with the boy, Hubs can cuddle her, She can sleep in her crate.
Send good vibes. Either Little Miss Puppy comes with us, Or me and the boys will go for Thanksgiving, and Hubs will stay home with the pup.

Britney Spears Loses Custody of her Kids
I tried really hard to root for Britney. REALLY hard.
But watching her go get drunk the same night a judge tells her she has to stay sober, watching her drive the same day a judge tells her its illegal to drive without a Californian license, well, right now I am in the camp that says she deserves to lose her kids.
Maybe. Hopefully, If we all wish upon a little star This will be what snaps her out of her retardedness!
