• Well my changes are taking a bit longer than originally hoped.  But that's ok   They are still changin'..............

  We closed on the house yesterday.  We got back less than we wanted but more than we thought.  Does that make sense? Well too bad, it should.

  We called and ordered every god-forsaken channel that our satellite company offers.  Let me just say that it's overwhelming to have that many choices.  I am a TV freak, I mean I LOVE TV it's fast entertainment and when I'm in the mood for slower entertainment, we have every movie channel known to man.  It's great and it's relatively inexpensive.  The problem is choosing what to watch.  Oh well I could have bigger problems (and do! lol).

  My writing, oh my writing, it still sucks. I have to write 3 things that have happened to me, one must be truthful, the other two, lies.  So anyone want to give me a paragraph of something that happened to YOU and I'll say it happened to me LOL I'm really at a loss.  Thank goodness all of my interior insights work is done for the week.  Now I can focus on all this other crap.

  Well we skipped my dad's house this past week, that's why I have no new update on new critters.  The caterpillar has made a cocoon.  One of the tadpoles is about to sprout legs.  ANOTHER guppy gave birth and now I have over 100 little fish in a 5.5gal aquarium.  I'm going this weekend to get another aquarium or 5.

  We are going to re-do the kitchen.  I don't want to say remodel because it will still look the same, sort of, it will just have new everything and the cabinets will be 6-8 inches higher (yeah, don't ask, some sort of fucked up midget on speed designed this house).  So this is what I'd LIKE to get, that is if the scratch and dent store have them without some huge scratch or dent on them..yeah RIGHT.  I'll keep dreamin' don't worry....
  
   
  I also want a dishwasher
  
  and new flooring
  
  Then of course there are the cabinets...but I don't know what they will look like...brown or some sort thereof.

  My Interior Insights class kicks some MAJOR ass.  I have learned all SORTS of cool things that I never even thought could pertain to design.  But it makes a TON of sense.  I'm so stinkin' excited that I might actually know something that other people don't wahooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOO!  I'm going over to a friend's house later on this month and she wants me to give her some advice TOO FUCKING COOL!!!   I'm a fucking Interior Designer BABY! WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo! (Ok, I don't have my degree yet, but we CAN call ourselves designers......)

  And just my bitchy rant for the day.......
  In the state of Georgia when you give birth the hospital sends you home with a CD of classical music.  When it was said that listening to classical music could build a baby's brain our then governor passed a law stating that every new mother would get a CD of classical music when she left the hospital with her baby.  I thought it was pretty cool, not only do you get a baby but you get TUNES too!! HOOHOOO!  Well after that was passed I was reading Child magazine and noticed an article about governments going too far with parenting.  Guess who they mentioned...yup, good ol' Georgia and our controlling classical Mozart and Bach, we were next to the states who throw parents in jail for not medicating their "ADHD" children.  DAMN US for being so fucking controlling with babies' ears and giving away CDs. So then that got me to thinking.  Child magazine is VERY VERY VERY VERY mainstream.  They advertise formula companies and Ralph Lauren baby, and other stupid fuckers who make baby clothes that will be worn for 3 months MAYBE and charge more than I've ever paid for any of my clothing.  ANYWAY, so Child has NO PROBLEM letting big business dictate how we should parent but when the state of GA gives mothers CDs (or tapes, you can choose) of classical music, they've gone too far?? HOW IN THE FUCK IS THAT GOING TOO FAR???????? Lets not forget that when you have a baby and you're getting ready to go home what does the nurse bring you?  FORMULA, whether you're nursing or bottle feeding, you get it, I tried to refuse it and she said, "Oh no honey, you MIGHT need it."  Oh those pharmaceutical companies MAKE SURE that moms are sent home with a nice little supply of formula, for when nursing doesn't work.  How fucking convenient... But that's ok to the editors of child, new moms can be given formula, but GAWD DAMNIT HOLD BACK THOSE CDs....Beethoven could RUIN a child damnit!  Stupid fucking morons, strike again...........WTF-EVER!
  

  BTW, I'm listening to the CD now, and I must say its REALLY GOOD!!!!!!  Building mama's brain if nothing else, maybe I'll make the kids sit in here for a little while, get 'em some smarts....
