Has it really been almost 2 months since my last post!?

Hi Peeps!

Wow I really have been a major slacker when it comes to my blog. Yesterday I finally changed my blog layout from HALLOWEEN!

I have been good, wonderful, great if any body is wondering. The holidays have come and gone now we just have to deal with the crappy never ending part of winter that seems to last for a century. I do not know about you but I am ready to sit out on my deck and enjoy a nice warm spring day already. I have a lot of friends in Florida you all know who you are (I hope) and I know this winter has been cold for you too. I was bummed because we did not go on our annual Florida vacation but the week we would of went would of been that cold, cold week and I would of just been pissed I spent thousands of dollars to be cold so in a way it is a good thing.

Not too much is new on the home front we work, and on the weekends we hang out at home as it is too cold to venture out. Dave did work on his bike this weekend in the garage and I did not even ask why he stomped into the house covered from head to toe in oil (tee hee.... shhhhh).

Work has just been work you know long and boring. I have been on a crazy shopping kick lately I may have to seek help soon....I am solely keeping amazon and a few other shopping sites in business. Note I do not go to stores as people bug the crap out of me I do it all online....at work! Lets see since after Christmas I have gotten: 2 more pairs of boots, 2 train cases (see my you tube or face book page for my reviews on those), all kinds of make-up, a nice pair of senshauser (spelling is totally wrong) headphones, jogging pants (for wearing while I lounge on the couch), paw slippers, accesories for my kindle the Ebook reader (I love love love), a jewelry pouch that was 3 sizes smaller than the picture, an over the door organizer for traveling, corel photo shop X2 and the Corel video software too, at CVS I got a $36 wet/dry hair iron for only $19.99!(I know I am forgetting a few this so that is just the stuff I can remember I literally have stuff delivered to my house at least twice a week I am on a first name basis with the UPS and fedex guy. Oh I also got a mini epilator now if you do not know what this is let me tell you it is a little device kind of like a portable shaver that has all these tweezer things on wheels that rips the hair out of your body, it is like medieval torture device, why do I do these things to myself???? I need an intervention!!!!
Here are my Sasquatch boots and leather riding boots I got, The Doo was checking them out too.

Now even though I have been buying this stuff, I always pay my bills first and pay for everything in cash, no charge cards in my house. I also set up an ING savings account where I have $25 deposited from my regular checking it may not be much but in a year it will be $1,300 which will be vacation money....I also plan on making extra deposits too.

Me and the Davemiester have really gotten into the HGTV shows like househunters and the international version, and the first time home buyers episodes. We eat our dinner in front of the tv and watch these shows and Dave loves to yell at the people telling them how stupid they are for picking the wrong house. We always guess which house they will buy and I am 90% right all the time and he is usually wrong....yes this pisses him off.....LOL.

I wanted to start doing videos for blogs and you tube and I am so mad as I have 2 perfectly good tripods for my camera's and wouldn't you know it I put them some where when I was on a cleaning kick and can not find one of them. It drives me crazy when I can't find things as I am anal in the sense I have a place for everything in the house.

I wrote on Facebook last week how I was so upset Friday as we where driving home after work a car in front of us hit a kitty! I saw it fly out from the car and it was like in slow motion it was traumatic for me. We stopped the car and went to look for the kitty but it was gone I hope it was not too badly hurt and went home and got help. That just pisses me off to no end when people let their cats out, especially if you live near a very busy street. I was crying the whole way home and I ran in the house to see Delilah and hug and kiss her. I still can't get the image out of my mind....brrrrr it gives me chills!

Well I guess I have babbled enough to make up for the last two months I hope everyone one is just peachy!

A plethora of Pictures

Hi Gang,

I am really trying to be better and blog more often but we have been doing so many household stuff I am to lazy to do it.  I really want to share with you what we did so I am getting this post while I am at work (shhh don’t tell, or I will get fired and then be blogging every day and you will all get sick of me).

 

We got the Man Room set up at least the basics, new Futon for the imaginary guests Dave seems to think we are going to have sleeping over our house.  His new desk and Chair and printer cart.  He has been working diligently a little day by day to go through the mess of boxes that are cluttering up my Tabby room now.  Now we moved into this place a year ago and we kept the door close of the man room/office with boxes of stuff that had not been gone through and put away yet.  Have a look

  yes I know it is a mess and I am almost embarrassed to post it.

Here is my Nice little Tabby/exercise/reading room before we moved the mess into it

Here it is all empty, Delilah is thinking the sheet we are using as a drop cloth is a kitty bed

Getting ready to paint, see all the holes on the wall Dave had to fill, he did all the edging work and I did all the walls as he still gets very sore an tired easily from being sick.

The new color a bit darker

Did I tell you I got a great deal I got this comforter for 80 then 4 days later it was marked down to 40 so I got $40 back (sorry this has nothing to do with the man room)

Time to put the new furniture together and of course the monster kitty has to check it out

Sorry had to put in another cute picture of the Delilah Doo

Happy man on his new man couch!

He started really man-ing it up with his Motorcycle, nascar and guitar stuff…lol .  There will be pictures, a house plant/tree and a new bookshelf going in here too.

  Delilah likes it!

Since I have been so lazy and not getting to my blogging like I would like too you will have to see more pictures…ho hum.  It was a cold weekend (I love it) so we decided to make Home made lasagna on Saturday and then cook Sheppard's pie on Sunday.  Here are the pictures.  I love having Davey well because he is the greatest cook.  Now I wish I could of shared some of this food with you all because we have tons and tons of left overs.  Here is the Lasagna, got a great recipe off the net, it is sausage and Hamburg cheesy lasagna From start to finish.

   

 

Now after I just inserted all these pictures in one by one I just found out I could of done them all as an album…grrrr (I am using windows live writer and it is a new option).  So the next set are Sunday and Sheppard's pie and a few odd and end pictures:

View Full Album

******************************************************

As far as the news lately I am sorely going to miss Patrick Swayze he was one of my biggest teen Heart throbs.  I hope they do a movie marathon of all his movies as I loved them all and I will be tuned in.  It sure is great Fall is almost here as the TV programs are starting up again.  Just started watching The Vampire Diaries and it is pretty good. I am so into vampires I am re-reading the twilight series and about the start the Sookie Stackhouse Vampire novels (True Blood series is based on these books).   Tonight Supernatural is on and another great show is The Lords of Anarchy that started up again.

This weekend my mission is to take down my summer decorations outside and get my fall stuff out; make my shell wreath for the bathroom, Change my blog to my fall theme,  help Dave organize and get all his clutter put away.   Whoa reading this makes me tired, I need to rest a bit so I will take it slow :)  Also I am so glad it is football season again…Woo hoo!  Everyone have a great weekend.  Until my next post…..

A real Summer weekend at last!

This past weekend has been the best weekend I have had in a long time.  It is great having Dave home and let me tell you we kept busy!  I took a pictures so I could do a little picture story:)

This is Dave’s first day home and look a man with his remote he is in heaven!

Here are his 13 prescriptions!

Delilah is like hey I know this guy, I think it’s my long lost Daddy!

There is no place like home now stop taking pictures of me!

We interrupt this Dave picture-thon to give you a few photo’s of my flowers this is one of my gladiola’s the head popped off!

Here is my one measly tomato, because of all the rain the plant snapped in half.

 

10 Sparrows on the bird feeder Saturday morning.

Ok back to Dave hee hee.  Well really we did a lot this weekend he has to build his endurance up walking and stuff so on Saturday we went to Walmart in search of a charcoal grill and a few other things well lots of stuff actually(healthy food, snacks drinks etc).  We have a gas one but food taste’s better on charcoal I think.  So Walmart was a mad house of course the grills there where crap but we did get new curtains and rods for the front windows with a fancy expensive Rod set. But of course when we got home some jerk had opened the box and stolen the middle rod and all the hardware so now we have to bring it back.  We then drove to Lowe’s in search of this portable grill we wanted and they wanted too much but I did get 2 cute statues marked way down shown below.

Green garden gnome originally $20 I got it for $7.  I am thinking of pulling out my craft paints and painting him to look like the velocity Gnome we will see.  The next deal is the wooden birdie I got for only $3 marked down from $9

We tried CVS to see if they had the grill, nope so I said what the heck let me just check Stop and Shop and Low and behold the had the Webber grill we wanted and it was 33 percent off so it was only $19!  And it was the only one left in the store.  Here is Dave putting it together……oh and by the way I forgot to buy charcoal so  we had to go back to cvs for that.

Delilah thought she got a present too!

Why do cats love to sit in bags??

Now for our yummy healthy dinner we had grilled skinless chicken breasts, with corn on the cob and Texas toast.

Dave seasoning the chicken

Me faking I am cooking

Our yummy dinner!

We also watched 2 stinkers of movies Friday and Saturday and I can not remember the names but they just came out….DO NOT GET THEM, the first one had Morgan Freeman and Antonio Banderas as Jewel/art thieves and the next one had Ryan Phillipe being held hostage in Morroco  they where crap.  I did buy the the first season of The Tudors though so that kind of made up for it we watched a few episodes.

Poor Dave was dying to watch his nascar on Sunday but it got rained out.  We where both so sore on Sunday from all the walking especially Dave.  He has to get that endurance and strength back slowly.  We hung out on the couch Sunday and Delilah curled up in between us it was so nice.  Dave wanted me to tell everyone he thanks you for all your prayers I may have already said this but we both really mean it!

Oh just a few more Random shots:

 

Mushrooms growing in my flowers from all the rain!

Pretty spoiled. green eyed kitty!

That’s it folks!
