Jon Gosselin is a Moron

So TLC drops him because he's an idiot, running around town with different women, ignoring his children and slamming his wife. So instead of thinking that maybe, just maybe, his behavior caused this and apologizing, he goes on a legal rampage trying to delay his divorce and stop the show that is putting food on his children's table. Does he seriously think people are so stupid to believe that he is doing this for their welfare? Since when does he care about their welfare, I guess after he finished screwing the babysitter in the house while the kids were asleep!

Not only that, but does he have another job lined up for him to make sure he can keep a roof over their heads and food on their table? Probably not! A responsible parent would not cut off their source of income until another one was available! Oh wait, he's got a new show in the works about Divorced Dads, that's right! Talk about a train wreck!

Maybe he can be a runway model for Ed Hardy! Last weekend I saw a really neat carseat cover and almost bought it until I saw it was Ed Hardy. Made me think of Jon Gosselin. I specifically didn't buy it because I didn't want to think of him every time I got in my car!

What a douche!

An Obviously Miserable Couple

On again, off again, I really don't care either way. But this picture of Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake SCREAMS miserableness! Can you say Publicity Shot? It looks like they decided to take a stressful walk just to show people they're together. Odd

Activists are Whining Again about their Messiah

Unbelievable. I am so annoyed right now. This stupid article showed up on MSNBC today. Apparently the left wing Socialist babies sucking Obama's tittays, ehem, Activists are complaining about a poster in a STRIP CLUB depicting Obama as the joker. Are you kidding me??

Apparently they don't remember this picture of Bush depicted as the aforementioned joker, printed in July of 2008. I don't remember the picture of Bush causing any whining, crying and sulking protests from Conservatives.

I am so sick and tired of the left complaining that their Messiah Obama is being targeted because we are racists. I'm not a racist. I'm a realist. I can see what he is doing to this country and I don't like it. I don't care if he is black, white, orange or purple. He is single handedly ruining the United States as it was designed to be.

And now, with everything going on, he's trying to get the Olympics, in of all places, CHICAGO, his the home of corruption. I wouldn't be surprised if he rehires all of the ACORN workers to pose as a Welcoming Committee for the Chicago Olympics!

Flippin Typical - NO HOT WATER!

Our water heater is on the fritz again. This time water is leaking everywhere, looks like from every place a pipe is connected! Darned thing is only 7 years old. I don't think that's a long life for a water heater. So tomorrow I get the joy of taking an ice cold shower. I am sooo not looking forward to that. I don't handle cold water very well.

Fortunately I got all the kids bathed, except for Ryan, before the hot water ran out. I really hope we aren't going to need a new water heater. That can't be cheap and I don't have the extra funds for a new one right now.

So I can already see tomorrow not starting off very well. Cold shower, going back to work after a mini vacation, yuck. I think tomorrow has BAD MOOD written all over it. If I'm smart, I'll get up a little early to make myself a nice cup of coffee instead of waiting until I get to work. I think I'm going to need it!

Clean House makes me clean my house

Every time I watch this show, I end up cleaning my house! My house looks nothing like these homes, thank goodness, but something about this show compels me to start cleaning! I've also started a cleaning calendar to keep me on track. Every Saturday I have a list of items to do. Some items are done every week, some monthly, some every six months and so on. It's based on a cleaning chart I found at RealSimple.com.

Anyhoo, I've watched a ton of design shows, but Mark Brunetz is my favorite designer. He makes every home look beautiful. He doesn't do any of that wacky, weird colored, outlandish designs that don't go with any other room in the house. He makes the entire house flow and look calm and relaxing. I really wish he would come do my house. I am really not good at designing at all!

But then again, every time I do something nice to the house, the boys are right there to break it! To date, they have broken a metal bunk bed (bent the frame), their closet doors, our bannister (it's loose, will have to have it fixed), a drawer in the refrigerator, clogged a toilet with a toy and broke all the screens in the house (Nick has since re-screened every window for me). Needless to say, they keep me on my toes!

Christian vs Muslim - Double Standard

First, let me say that I one of the great things about America is freedom of religion. But Christians are being targeted more and more often. I just want to know if anyone told the Muslims they had to pay thousands of dollars like the Christians in San Diego were told!

Frustrated!!

I am so frustrated right now. I feel like I've been in the terrible two's for 9 years now! I am so ready to be finished with them. The constant temper tantrums, screaming and crying. It is so hard to listen to day in and day out. Don't get me wrong, of course I love all of my children, and Annie really has an incredible personality, but when she is ticked off, she brings the thunder!

See, when you have 1 child, and that child is playing peacefully with a toy, or outside, then there is peace in the house. With 4 kids, the chances of them all being happy at the same time are very slim. And it's never the same one who is sad, mad or upset about something. And as soon as he is better, another one is right there to take his place.

So tonight I'm going to make an easy dinner, keep the kids outside as long as possible, and try to relax. Breathe in, breathe out!!

California freeways

Ever notice how all of the freeways in California are referred to as "The..."... The 405, The 110, The 5. What's up with that? Here in Colorado, they start with "I..." I25, I70, I'm sure it stands for Interstate. "The" doesn't stand for anything. I personally think they are referred to with "The" in the beginning, because they deserve such a distinguished title.

Now, I know what you're thinking. California freeways are a nightmare! Yes, I know, but that is because they are so full of cars. It's really not the freeways that are bad, it's the cars. One thing I've actually learned from living in Colorado, is that the California roadways are actually designed quite well. Entrances and exits are fairly standard, meaning you know they will be on the right side of the road most of the time. In Colorado, freeway entrances have no rhyme or reason. In California, lanes are typically the same width apart! You would think that something like that would be standard. Not so, just try driving on I25 through the Tech Center. Nightmare!!! The cars get sooo close to each other. I hate driving through it.

Anyway, I apparently did way too much freeway driving here yesterday, because all I could do was think about how much more organized the engineers in California make the roadways! I never thought I would admit to something like that!

Best Laid Plans

We had good intentions. Our first plan for the night was for Nick and me to go see Brad Paisley. We don't get out much without the kids and thought this would be a great evening out. A few weeks back I was talking about getting tickets and the new guy at work said he could get them for us. Great! Two weeks later, he says the tickets will be at will call. Two days ago he says he can't get them. I'm thinking the new guy is gonna be a short timer! Anyway, we decided that we would have a family night instead. This would be special because Nick normally works Friday nights.

Then, last night, actually, 5:30 this morning, Nick calls saying he's going to be late because he had a big arrest and had lots of evidence to book in. I don't hear from him again until 12:30pm! He's just on his way home. He worked 16.5 hours! I knew where this was headed... He says to wake him up when I get home with the kids and we'll go see a movie. I wake him up at 6:00pm, and he asks for another 45 minutes of sleep. How could I deny him when he was out keeping the streets safe the night before! So 45 minutes goes by, and I just can't do it. I couldn't wake him up.

So here I am and it's 9:15pm. The kids don't seem to mind, though. 3 are playing upstairs and one is playing video games down stairs. Fortunately Nick is on vacation this week as well, so we will have lots of time to spend together. I just couldn't seem to wake him up after such a long night at work.

Now we are planning on trying to have a date night again next Friday. I'm not sure what we are going to do, but hopefully it will involve leaving the house! Maybe go to the drive in!

Carrie Fisher is my new Hero!!!
