Paul is watching a show on HBO with Ray Liotta and John Leguizamo. It's about a pyromaniac - Point of Origin. I am totally freaked out - I can't imagine how a person is able to do such a thing to another living thing.

I have been shredding more papers. Ugh. I swear, I have to get more organized!

I have been working in the house all day.. Oy.. am I tired!

I am uploading some really nice shots from yesterday's party and the fair. Check them out here!

Ok, ok, I'll jump on the bandwagon...here's my blogchalk Google! DayPop! This is my blogchalk: English, United States, New Jersey, Manahawkin, Kate, Female, 31-35!

C'mon people.... just $25 more dollars will bring Erin to her minimun amount so she can walk! Donate til it hurts... then donate some more!

I am so stinkin' tired! Miss Olivia woke up no less than 5 times last night... between 330am and 445am. I didn't get to bed until 2am! Poor kid, I have NO idea why she was up so much ::sigh:: but she seems pretty perky this morning. ::yawn:: At least someone does!

Been playing with my template. Whaddya think? Be honest - but gentle!

We had a GREAT day today. I have a bunch of pictures that I need to upload (from Friday and today). We visited my Dad and StepMom today. We all had a great time. It was nice to see my niece again. I gave them a copy of the girls portrait (the one from the fair). I didn't have time to get it framed but they will be dropping it off at a shop near them to have it professionally framed (it's 13x17) and I will pay for it. We left around 645 and made it home by 730pm. Bath, meds, books and bed. 9pm - turned on the Robin William special on HBO. I laughed my ASS off. In fact, I laughed so hard that I had an asthma attack. His description/re-enactment of a colonoscopy exam was priceless. A narrative of a "Viagra Moment" caused me to cry from laughing so hard. So now - the special is over. My hands are all jittery from my asthma inhaler. Nothing like a few shots of albuterol to make a person all shaky! Wheee! I need to work on the photographs.. will try to update later!

HOLY crap! It seems like forever since I have updated! ::sobbing:: Can ya'll forgive me? The past couple days have been extremely busy. I took the girls to the Ocean County Fair yesterday. It was gorgeous but hot. We saw a bunch of animals (4-H shows), a comedian/magician that totally enthralled Moira! I had the girls profile drawn by a man who used all pencils and chalk. The likeness was very eerie - he really caught them dead on, even down to a small dimple in Moira's left cheek. Beautiful - I can't wait to frame it and hang it up ASAP! Our bedroom is still an ongoing project. So far, the 2 bureaus are finished. They look fabulous. The 3rd dresser still needs to be primed and painted. So far, the room is REALLY coming together nicely, even though we don't get too much time to work on it when the kidlets are around! We also put up some wood shelves and we also are going to hang a small drop leaf desktop. It drops down when not in use and it will certainly come in handy OUR next project is the living room and hallway. We are going to rip up the carpet (YAY!) and replace it with the Pergo Presto, which is just snap together.. no glue. I have a trip planned to IKEA and l will be getting some small lamps and some decorative storage for the bedroom (to go on the shelves). Oh yeah, and meeting Dara too! ::grin:: Paul and I went through our 4 drawer file cabinet and we shredded 3 garbage bags FULL of old papers, pay stubs, etc.. I hate filing!!! Well - I have a busy day for tomorrow. Moira and Paul are going to church in the morning and have to run a couple errands. We are going to my Dad and Step-Mom's house tomorrow for a combination birthday and anniversary lunch/dinner thingie! It will be fun - I get to see my niece, whom I haven't seen since May. Ta-ta for now!

I think Colin shops at my Shop Rite! Read this GREAT supermarket rant!

Well, we never made it to the fair today. But, we can go tomorrow. The weather is supposed to be just as beautiful tomorrow too. Hooray! I was outside most of the day with the girls. I puttered around the yard, cleaning the flower boxes, running the sprinkler, washing, hanging on the line, and folding a mountain of laundry. Or, as Allison says, "mount laundry" Teehee! So, I am pooped. My knobs arrived today and they look FABULOUS! ::grin:: What can I say, I have great knobs!

I am CONNECTED! Woohoo! I have to say, cable modems ROCK! My father in law is coming down in a little while to pick up his power washer we borrowed a couple weeks ago. It's 70 degrees! Gorgeous clear skies.. white puffy clouds. I love this type of weather. I am going to take the girls to the Ocean County Fair today, if things work out around here. I'll catch up more later! Ta-ta!

Which Willy Wonka character are you? I am the most annoying of all Wonka characters. I am so greedy, snobby; basically just a stuck-up rich bitch. Everyone hates me! I am Veruca Salt. You most often are found saying "I want it now!" My fate: I fall down the educated eggdicator, where I am possibly "sizzled like sausage".

I got my cable modem! YAY! Now - normally, I would set it up right away. Except, I can't. The cable outlet/jack it behind our mammoth sized entertainment center. It is impossible for me to move. So - I have to wait until tonight to test it out. If I have waited 3 years, I suppose another 4 hours won't kill me. I hope!

Michael Jackson and the race card, as mentioned by kd. My comments? MJ is a freak. Plain and simple. He is a walking example of a child star experiment gone completely wrong. He is just so disturbing looking. The simple fact that he chose to do this to himself is just frightening. I found this, with 3 pictures, from ChuckJerry. Check it out and bring your barf bag.

Speaking of pregnant - Zannie, what the heck is going on with you and lil Brucie??

A friend of mine was in a car accident yesterday.She is pregnant and due in 3 weeks. Thank God she is ok and of course the baby is ok too. She rear-ended someone. The police officer was right behind her when she did it.

Happy Birthday Dad! I love you!

YAY! I am going to meet Dara on 7/24 at IKEA. What could be more fun than an evening of good friends, dining together and shopping? Not too much more!
