Blogging While I Can

Work was taking up my time yesterday so I couldn't blog.  I'm getting it all out of my system today since I won't be at work tomorrow (more about that later) and everyone knows how well I blog from home.....

Friday night....

I got off an hour early since I won a contest at work (cross sells baby!) and what did I do with that hour?  Straight to the nail salon!

Again, my real nails. 

I did decide yesterday that I will not be going to the nail salon anymore.  I have my own, real nails now and Dazzle is a better nail artist than some of those people at the nail salon!  I will be letting her paint my nails from now on...We'll see how that goes. 

I can't even remember what I did that night....I think I watched TV with the fam until I passed out on the couch....Probably during a really good episode of Hell's Kitchen.  Yeah, I think that's about how the night went.  

Dazzle and I LOVE Ramsay!!  We can't wait for Hotel Hell to come on!

Saturday....

Supa was off and we went to get our family friend Dark Special (Yes, I just made that one up all by myself - What can I say?  He's dark and he's special!) right after breakfast so he could spend the whole day with us.  I met Dark at the Pub-Dizzle many years ago and have been friends ever since.  He doesn't have a car (or a driver's license, YET) so I go and pick him up and take him back home when we want to spend some time together. 

ANYHOW, we picked up Dark and went to the pet shelter to play with the puppies again!  YAY!  We had to get flea treatments for the dogs the real reason we went because the fleas are SO bad this year!  While we were there....We played with many puppies.  Dark had one that was SO little and sweet!

Look how little he is compared to Dark's hand!  So cute!!

We took Dark into cat heaven and I really wanted to see if my friend was still in there.  Scary Cat!  He sure was.  This time I got a really good picture of him/her after it stepped out of the basket and graced us with it's presence.


This cat's face scares the shit out of me!!!

I got as close as I had to get and then got the hell away from him/her!  Freaky!!!

We had a great visit, went by Subway to grab our lunch and went back to the house to get ready for our day of fun in the sun!

Everyone met us at the house and off we went!  We spent the day at a local park that has a water park on the grounds.  We used to take the kids there when they were little but we haven't been in a long time.  It was a very hot and sunny day on Saturday so we thought it would a perfect place to hang out for a few hours. 

Our group for the day included Supa, Dazzle, Neon, myself, Dark, Jade, Cat Mama, Bean, Lolly and Camo Man!  It took 3 cars to contain us.  We brought coolers with lots of drinks, snacks and sunscreen (even though some of us forgot to reapply).

We had such a great time talking, splashing and hanging out.  I hope we can get together and go back again soon! 

I took plenty of pictures (check Facebook) but I only took one picture that I could post here on my blog, LOL (what a photographic loser!):

This is a caterpillar that Lolly picked up (yes, with her bare hands <SHUDDER>) and placed on Supa's shoulder.  LOL

I made sure to be far away while she was holding the little yucky bug!

We went home afterwards to take showers and clean up. Then we ran to grab the kids a pizza for dinner.  Jade and I planned for Cat Mama to spend the night with Dazzle and Neon but they didn't know that and it was really fun to surprise them.  :)  After we had the kids settled down and eating their dinner, we took Dark home (I love you and we'll see you again soon!) and then we were off to Olive Garden to have a grownup dinner date, just the two of us. 

We had a really great meal and a nice time together.  :) 

Sunday....

The day was pretty routine and uneventful.  We ran to the dumpster (no coupons to be found, fuck!), ran to the flea market (no movie guy, double fuck) and did a whole bunch of laundry.  I was supposed to get up and cut the grass at the crack of dawn but that didn't happen so I cut it after dinner when the sun started to go down. 

Before I knew it, it was Monday AGAIN!

I won't be at work tomorrow because it is the day of my root canal/filling.  My appointment is for 9:30 AM and I'm super scared but they promised me that the gas would cause me to not even know what planet I'm on so...I think I will probably be ok.  I'm still nervous but I'll be ready to get it over with.  Everyone, cross your fingers.

Scared yet ready I think,
