What am I looking for?

Hmm.

The family is ill.

Still.

Hubby had a tooth pulled.

Briana will miss another day of classes.

House is a wreck.

Linen closet looks lovely with all the crud in spacebags.

Found a lovely Antique White color to paint the walls.

I think it makes me happier.

I keep surfing through pages of blogs.

I read some,

I watch some,

I pass some by.

But in the end I feel a need to keep searching...

for what?

I wish I knew.

The best rational I can conceive

is I am looking for someone else to create my perfect blog

so I don't have to try to.

And if I don't try,

well then I don't fail.

Hmm.

I like the blogs where they are creating things...
Ordinary Life Magic

U Create

Just Something I made
I also like ones with good pictures...

The Fern Mossery

Orangette

The Magic Onions

I love blogs with free printable...

The Background Fairy

The Graphics Fairy

I love all the blogs I follow for different reasons. It should be obvious to me that no one's blog could ever be all that is me.

So I guess until I locate a blog that:

Talks about home moms, that love to read, and color, and draw, and do crafts, organize, cook, download free things, look at pictures, married early,loves her eccentric family...

and learn more about their Asperger Syndrome, High Functioning Autistic, Selective Mutism, Generalized, Social, School, Separation Anxiety, Childhood depression, extremely high IQ, preteen adolescent daughter, who loves art, theater, singing, reading, her own fashion and nothing else, homeschooler, kid.

And since we are being completely unreasonable here...

I'd also like to know about gluten and casein free diets and

how to convince a 12 year old to try it.

How to convince my now unemployed for 6 months, with no job prospects, husband, whom I love dearly, and have been with for 17 years now that "lottery winner" is not a job title he can apply for nor is it something he can manifest from thin air like he is currently attempting. I'd also like the no exercise, no pills, no calorie counting, nor expensive prepackaged meals, or weekly meetings diet that will make me skinny in a reasonable amount of time(tomorrowish) with no sagging, bagging, loose skin, heart problems, liver problems or other body damage not listed here. I want my pets to all BEHAVE. The big old one will no longer lick, shed, groan, get pushy for attention ect. The middle dog will no longer be aggressive to other dogs or people that resemble dogs. He will remember he is a dog and not act like a bully child we forgot we had. And the youngest will grow out of her 3year long baby stage and resume peeing and pooping outside, stop acting like a cat on the furniture and no longer have the desire to eat the other animals or her own poop. My cat will take his gifts to the neighbors doorstep and not mine. The snake will keep hiding. And last of all I'd like the daily maid service to begin soon as I am running out of clothes to wear and we are forced to use paper plates and plastic silverware. All that in a blog and I will be your biggest fan....

In the mean time it is no wonder no one reads all this crap I write but it is sure a relief for me. Now I will wave my magic Valium wand and drift off to sleep. When I awaken all will be right with the world... Or at least it will be while I sleep.

Sweet Dreams and all.

Found some great Google Logo Art here

Some great FREE stock photos here

Sept 20, 2009

I love this picture from our last trip to Multnomah Falls. So now that our summer has come to an end it helps to remind me of sunnier days.

The whole family is currently sick with the flu=( It is very sad=( The hubby has had it for a week. B came down with it last night. They are both whiney. I hope they feel better soon.

B has started off the school year well and she's adjusting to the increase in work as well. Theater is going well for her as well. She mastered her test script and was assigned a large part in the final performance in November.

My hubby finished the new costume closet for them last night as well! It is a work of art. I love it. I only wish I had a 14'x14' area to have my own.

Tomorrow is Costco, school (math and health).

I will admit it has been too long.

School has begun and is now in full swing.

The closet we volunteered to build for the theater is almost complete.

We have a handfull of birthdays this next two weeks but nothing requiring us to do more than show up with a gift.

My husbands severence package will run out this month leaving us with unemployment.

I have comtemplated a job. It weighs heavily of my mind and my heart. I don't know that I can keep up with what is already required of me and a job.

I have decided to take some classes at the community college.

We are not painting the house in all of the bold colors we picked. I have decided on antique white. I cannot currently handle the chaos of the bold colors, nor the opinions of everyone. Orange is very controversial!!

B has been very quick witted lately and I have been documenting her quips on my Twitter account via my iphone. Such a wonderful tool.

I went to the doctor for the lump on the back of my head. Another cyst=( Nothing to do but wait till it is bigger and then have it removed. In 5 1/2 months it has only grown enough to be uncomfortable so I think we have awhile.

Really enjoying Saturday mornings to myself. B is at theater and hubby is helping mom. Even the dogs are quiet today.

Took the dogs to get shaved on Thursday. Fleas were to bad. They are doing much better. Problem should be solved tomorrow when I apply the advantage. Poor puppies.

Loving the Sookie Stackhouse books!! Written by Charlaine Harris. Was prereading for B. Decided she isn't ready for them but I sure like them. Nice to be reading something other than educational/ school/ self help stuff.

Thank you for reading,

Have a wonderful day!
