Would you care to sign?

We're just a little over a month into Winter and I am sick of it. Thank goodness we haven't had "the big one" like we did last year and I'm sorry for those of you who have had such a travesty. But I think the weather that we are dealing with is just as bad.

We may not have to shovel feet of snow and then be forced to watch it turn into nasty black hills of ice and snow that stick around for months on end, but we have been getting enough to have to do something. The husband and I are tired of cleaning the car. We are tired of clearing the walkways. And I am sick and tired of breaking the damn ice off of our front porch. That's my job because I am the only one home at the warmest part of the day. Those days are still cold as anything, but the sun likes to warm stuff up just enough to cause me grief!

I know there are many of you out there who are dealing with equally crappy weather. Whether it's feet of snow, ice, or just bitter cold, we're all getting tired of it. Right? So I have decided to draw up a petition. If you are ready for Summer, please feel free to sign my petition by way of leaving a comment.

And if Summer gets unbearably hot where you are, I'm sure we could work out a deal to bring on Spring! And if you live where you don't have to deal with this crappy weather, please leave your address in my comments. I will be moving in shortly!

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

I, the undersigned, do hereby state that I am sick and tired of the Winter weather. I do hereby petition that the following actions be placed into effect immediately.

The snow and ice must hereby cease and desist.
The bitter cold must be replaced by the warmth of the sun.
The snow and ice shall melt making it possible for us to take our children out of the house
Without having to bundle them in 15 layers of clothing
Only to have them turn around and say they have to pee.

Sidewalks shall be clear so walks can be had.
Parks shall be open so excess energy can be expelled.
The sun shall grace us with it's presence til bedtime
So we can keep previously mentioned energetic kids out of the house

Please sign my petition and feel free to leave any other grievances you may have in regards to the Winter weather. Once I figure out who to mail this to, I can hopefully bring on the Summer.


ps. that stupid groundhog better stop by and read this, too, or else him and I are gonna have some issues!


Until next time....

Climbing the stairway to 7

Yes, it's true. We bleed black and gold in this house. The kids and I wear our jerseys for every single game. Along with my jersey I have my Cleveland sucks shirt and my Patriots cheat shirt for when the Steelers play those teams. I also have to wear my red belt and have my Terrible Towel on hand. I may be slightly superstitious. I've also added a Steeler Silly Bandz to my list of what to wear for game day. I've worn it for the playoffs and, well, you see where it got us!

For last weeks AFC Championship game, the kids prepared by coloring pictures that will go in our window sometime this week.




But just when I thought I was a superstitious fanatic, I came across this...



Don't worry, I took all proper precautions. I stopped my car before clicking away and I made sure the passengers were out of eye sight. By the way, I find it amusing that those passengers were walking into the Steelers store. Obsessed much?

HERE WE GO

STEELERS

HERE WE GO

PITTSBURGH'S GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL

TIME TO CLIMB THE STAIRWAY TO 7

SEE YOU IN DALLAS!

Now who has my tickets and a place for me to stay?

Spam inflates my ego

Excluding the porn and medications because I try to keep it family friendly over here

Here is a peek at some of the amusing spam comments left by someone or something, along with my input of course!




I would love to have a guest poster! It really is something I have been considering. But it's really hard to get you to do it, Mr. Spambot, because not only are you anonymous, but you're a no-reply!

Um, thanks? But the post you left this on really didn't have anything informative. Just pictures of my kids playing in the snow. Should I be worried now?

Wow! Thanks! You're really starting to inflate my ego! Damn those search engines! I'm sure trying to get your kids to do chores is a highly sought after subject.




Um, what?




Unless you know something that I don't, there aren't any advertisements on my blog. Perhaps you hit the little resize button up there on the top of your browser? I hear that may resize things, too!





Again, inflating the ego! I love it! Since anonymous is a no-reply, I'll just let everyone in on my little secret as to how I made my current blog look so damn good. The Cutest Blog on the Block. See their ad up there on the top left? Wait, does clicking that resize browsers? Be careful then!



If spammers weren't so good at inflating my ego, I might turn anonymous comments off!





Until next time....

I need to place a call to Webster

It's Friday and thanks to Mother Nature we get another 3 day weekend. You see, today was supposed to be a half day for the kids. Everyone knew the weather was going to suck through the night. Normally this would mean a 2 hour delay. Since dismissal time was supposed to be at 11:10 am, there's really no point in the 10 am start.

My plan, after we all catch up on some sleep, is to send the kids out to play in the snow. I'm sure they'll run around, make a mess, and come in hungry and tired. Like me, they tend to get goofy when they're tired. Maybe by the afternoon I'll catch some crazy things coming from their mouths. Similar to the conversation with Little Dude Thursday night.


We had tacos for dinner (nom nom). We love tacos. We love them to the point I need to start getting the double tacos. No, 12 taco shells are not enough for this 4-person family!

We were done eating but still had yet to clean everything up. Next thing I know Little Dude is in the kitchen. I peek in to see what he's doing. He's licking the remaining taco sauce out of the bowl. Nothing else. Just taco sauce. Nasty!!

He then moves on the the few remaining tomatoes. I finally ask what he thinks he's doing. His answer?

He's nomming!


Perhaps I should call Webster and ask them to add that to their dictionary?


Until next time....

My angels

After what was quite possibly one of the worst shopping experiences ever, we were finally ready to go.

And where do we go once everyone has snow pants and snow boots?

Out in the snow, of course!

Even though we probably had enough of it, the snow wasn't quite right for making snowmen. But that didn't stop Little Dude and GG from digging, throwing, eating, and finally...

Making snow angels!
