All Hail Rachael Ray...Bow Down! We are Not worthy...

ALDI!!!!!!!

Woo...OMG! OMG! OMG! Tehe Tehe ....(breath, breath, breath)

Ok, I realize it's a new blog... and all that jazz...but if you know me personally, you'll know that I am totally and completely in love with, a complete whore for, I should work in their Marketing department... ALDI!!

If you don't know Aldi... Check it out... see if there's one close... etc.

Anyway... I am one of those oddities that thinks each line, mark, crow's foot/feet is making me look that much older. And the funny thing is I'm so not vain. ANYWAY...My lover (Aldi) now has skin care http://aldi.us/us/html/product_range/7196_7527_ENU_HTML.htm
I don't care who you are...That's freakin' awesome! And, I glanced at it briefly when I was in there last time and it's so cheap!!! Compare it to even a regular brand like Olay and WOW... WOOOOOOOO ....soooo groovy!

That's all....TTYL

Addictions! hooooo....gimme gimme gimme

Morning... I'm blogging from work, sssshhhhh...this should never be attempted boys and girls! Naughty!

Anyway, I wanted to tell you about some of my most recent addictions. Now keep in mind, the majority of my addictions starts with a computer and then moves into the real world.

**Small pat on the back, I smoked for 12 years and have now been smoke free since February 2, 2008**

Moving on... here is one of them http://kylie8cake.blogspot.com/ ok ladies and gents... this blog rocks and here's why, cuz the writer rocks! Creative, quirky, a punk, diva, mom spirit on a quest! She keeps my ADD afflicted interests so yeah, she's good! Plus, she does all kinds of rockin' good giveaways...see...She's the bestest! TOLD YA SO! Her latest is a cook book...good stuff...

Next is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/hagerstownFreecycle/ this is such a fun social experiment! One man's trash is TRULY another's treasure! It's been great. I've been able to successfully purge so much unnecessary junk! And let me tell you, I'm a pack rat!!! So this is truly a big deal, and has been really spiritually uplifting! So yeah, that's cool and fun and even makes you feel like you're giving something back to the community. I mean hey, it's better than rotting in the dump right?

Alright, this is the MOST recent addiction http://www.etsy.com/. Yeah...This one also comes courtesy of Ms. Kylie8cake! (told ya she was cool, she finds all the neato stuff) This is like shopping every craft fair, gypsy stand, flea market, ecclectic, antique store and show all at once! Not to mention, if you're in the market for a unique and heart-felt give...THIS is the place to go! It's amazing...the people are so dang creative! So yeah...Check that one out too...

Don't get me wrong, there's far more to my life... my other addictions are music (music music music music music music), cooking, eating (ugh), driving, decorating, crafting, MOVIES and on and on and on... I have TOO many addictions because you know what...There's not enough time for it all! Ah! I need more time to parent, work, housework AND feed my addictions... Anyone know how?

Ok...whew... gotta come down from the high now... back to real work...sssshhhhhhh

Random Goodness...

Do you believe in random acts of kindness?
How about paying it forward- like the movie?
I do... I'm the happy pessimist, yes, but I do believe that these things can work. The question is how? I love doing good deeds, charitable work, etc. I want to do it all...and then end up achieving nothing.

Anyway... what have you achieved? I've given when the moment arises... like a lady who was obviously not well to do who was a few dollars short in paying for her sparse groceries. I couldn't help but turn and give her what she needed. Can't all of humanity be that way?

Is it then selfish to wonder where someone is with those few dollars for you? No... we all have needs.

Let's just start fresh and do something new; Try this:

• Buy a few dollars worth of lottery tickets and give them to strangers
• pass along good reviews to the manager of your waiter or on the phone
• Give up your seat for someone
• Help an elderly neighbor - mow the yard, clear the sidewalks, offer to go to the store for them
• Hand out single flowers to strangers with a smile
• Write simple happy notes and leave them some place public...

It's just little things... You may be surprised what comes of it. If nothing else, I love that warm fuzzy feeling inside.

Stupid Rude Idiots of the WORLD...

I'm just so incredibly annoyed right now! Ok, Ok... this blog is apparently becoming my bitch digest. lol...I swear that I do have happy sun shiney times too...Lol.

Ugh. Anyway... So, I love him dearly but my guy was laid off almost 6 months ago now. First, let me tell you what... he has been nearly unbearable for me to be around!

... ... ... *deep breath* moving on... ... ...

So, he got a temp job, and is off on a job tonight, overnight. WOO HOO ...he'll get paid, happy dance, big smile, yippee....this is a good thing. It's far away and over night, but oh well. So, they partner him up with some others for the drive. Dude "A" is driving. They get about an hour down the road and Dude "B" decides to light up a blunt! Not asking if it's Ok with the others in the car, or whatever...then...THEN...passes it to Dude "A"...You know, the driver?!?!?!?

Let's get something perfectly straight here... I have NO problems with weed. I think it should be legalized, monitored and taxed the hell out of (lol)...Ok, back to point... I don't care about it. I have no moral or ethical B.S. with it ...

HOWEVER.....................................................................................................................

not when you're imposing it on someone else...you know, like in a small car! and not when people are trying to keep their shit together and provide for their families and/or kids by working in an economical environment where work is scarce and if you were all busted that would be gone along with everything else!!!! I'm so ticked off right now! Down right pissed off!!!

Hello? You are operating a motor vehicle, with some that I LOVE in it! HELLOOOO....you're making them all smell like weed...to go to WORK! Do you really think noone will notice?

AAAAAAHHHHH... Ok, I am totally not ticked at BF...not his fault that it happened. It's just that responsibilities come first and if someone else F-s that up for you what then? what if ....what if... what if... but C'mon... UGH.

Yes...Evil

Can anyone tell me why the evil seem to prosper? GRRRR

Ok, seriously... I know many ex's, his, yours, mine...whatever. I know an ex who after cheating, pregnancy from cheating, then...THEN... Get's given a brand new, very very nice vehicle after getting the one that they were driving repo'ed... Mind you, the one repo'ed was also in the other spouses name! WHAT? Lol... is that how it's supposed to work?

Another one, ALSO cheats, ALSO ends up in a pregnancy through said cheat... they get to move to a nicer house... they get family that buys them all new household items, furniture, everything. WHAT!?!

so... how does Evil prosper? My dear friends if someone can truly answer that for me, the universe would make sense. Yet...You have those that try to balance, take care of everyone else, take the high road, give, and just genuinely be decent. . . and what do those friends get? Hm, a hard time, being broke, no support, struggles and tears.

Ok Ok ...I swear I don't always want to complain... sometimes ya just gotsta get it out!
