I MOVED!

I've moved my Blog! You can now find me at www.thejoyofskyesworld.com !

I'm bored and unmotivated

Yup, it happens to adults too. I haven't had my shower yet and have been here on the computer for the last 2 hours. I did get the flyer done for the Shooting Stars Raffle, but that's it. I need to be doing laundry, some reports for PTA, dishes and just general cleaning. I need to go to Target and bay hangers too so I can finish sorting out my closet. Then there is the pile of laundry on my kitchen table. I won't post a pic, but the table is 4 feet long and the pile of clean laundry to be folded and/or hung up is about 3 feet high. I'm assuming it is all still clean laundry but the spraying cat has been in the house recently. I left the dryer open and went back for clean undies the other day - luckily there were only a few left in there since I had to rewash them.

I really want to get rid of the cat, but I feel guilty about that. He's a really sweet cat, but he does not do well inside my house. He sprays people and things and yes, he is fixed. He's great outdoors, but I worry something will happen to him one of these days. My step-daughter brought him home when one of her friends found him in a dumpster as a kitten. I didn't ask for him, but what was I supposed to do? I already had 2 cats I liked...

I guess I should be done whining for now. Maybe I will do some design changes here...

As Rachel Said...

it's Wednesday. UGH - is it over yet? Can I go to sleep yet? Skye is sharing her mac & cheese with me and I have a book I am finishing so will probably curl back up with it and the dog soon. Other than that, it's just been a tedious week. What can I say? Being a Grown Up is highly overrated.

I'm a Happy Mom!

Just got the results for the State Match that was held Easter weekend and Skye placed first in her division! Happy Mommy Dance! Don't ask how many were in her division, but safe to say she retained her title for the 2nd year in a row!

Today's post is dedicated to JamieLovesSocks!

A Hole in My Sock

Here I sit with a hole in my sock

That I sure didn’t see there before;

Where did it come from I have to wonder…

Perhaps it was from my drawer!

Ah yes, a sock eating whatcha-macall-it must be living there,

Something that I just can’t see.

But then why does it only eat some of the socks

And lets all the other socks be?

Oh I know! It’s the washer! Yeah that must be it,

Those things sure can be pretty mean.

It gobbles up little pieces of socks you know;

When it’s supposed to be making them clean.

Maybe I’ll invent some sort of solution to stop it,

You could add it in with the detergent.

I’d better get right on that, I’m running low on socks—

And that makes the matter quite urgent.

Oh, wait! That old dryer is most likely the culprit,

It eats socks whole but I can never catch it.

When it comes time to get the laundry out of the dryer;

There’s always a lone sock and I can’t match it.

Maybe this time it had eaten so many socks

That by the time it hit this one it was full.

Or perhaps it wasn’t expecting this synthetic blend

And it was holding out for 100% wool!

Then there are the kids who see really tiny holes

And seem to have nothing else to do.

So they play with the hole until, lo and behold,

It is now the size of the shoe.

Then there are those holes that just all of a sudden appear

As if God said, ‘let it be’ and just like that it was there.

None of the usual wear down or the dreaded wear and tear

A whole in the sock created by none other than the air!

Where do those holes come from? We may never know

I’ve seen the holes come, yet not seen them go.

But for now I’ll keep buying my socks by the sack,

Because one thing is certain… The holes will keep coming back!

It's still Thursday...

WHY? Don't want to cook dinner, do laundry or anything productive. New Grey's Anatomy is on tonight so I have that to look forward to at least. TV dinner or pizza delivery? hmmm - hard choice there - thinking Dominos may win though.

And to make this an absolutely wonderful day - I got a jury summons. Anyone want to go to Dallas County Court for me? Please?

It's Thursday

So what? It's not Wednesday which I keep thinking and it's sure not Friday which I WISH it was! Check out the link to Retail Anarchy and you can see a blog I get crdit for - LOL!

More thoughts later but have a stress-free non-threatening day!
