It worked!

SO the ultimate surprise went rather well.
My brother arrived with his family... safe and sound.
All the while, my mom and dad were supposed to be staying in El Paso for the night. My dad got her mad enough to say "FINE... we will just go home". While, my poor dad was being told off every minute of his 4 hour drive, my brother was waiting for them to get close enough for him to cart the entire family to surprise my mom! AND IT WORKED!!! She had no clue! LOL
Here was the phone call I received when she got home tonight:

Me: Hello
Mom: You son of a bitch! I cussed your dad out for 4 hours, got nothing to eat or drink, and had to take a poo really bad!
Me: Well.... I didnt want to ruin your surprise, but I am glad it worked. Did you get to take a poo though... cause you know nothing bugs like needing to take a poo when the driver wont pull over!
Mom: I can't believe you guys pulled this over on me!
Me: Mom, we pull alot over on you and to this day you still dont figure it out
Mom: I gotta go before your smart ass really does piss me off!
Me: I love you too Mom, and I will see you tomorrow... nighty night!
Mom: Bye ROBIN!!

ROFLMAO!

And we called to check in a while later and she mentioned that while she was doing all her complaining, my dad just looked over and said "Woman, dont make me back hand you!" LOL (For those who know my husband, this is where my dad got that comment from... and NO, it doesnt happen, in either house!) So my mom proceeds to tell my husband that my dad is spending a little too much time with him if my dad is picking up his verbage! LOL

I would say, that was a well planned surprise! Nothing makes me happier than seeing my mother that happy! I think I really know what a pig must feel like while rolling around in poo! :0)

No longer a fart magnet!

So I mentioned before, I think, that I was leaving Wal-mart....
Yes that is right, I am no longer a fart magnet, and no longer the person that pissed off people happily tell off while I smile and nod!
I went back to my job of 5 years that I had before Payton was born....
I gotta say it hasnt been all that bad. I graduated training this week. The last two weeks that is what I have been doing.... training. That blows! But I am glad to be back there.
It seemed like I was a kid in elementary school, gone for the summer. Then the most popular kid came back to school type of feeling! Really not like that... but I have had quite a few run ins that were nice. It was nice to catch up with a few folks.
I learned though, that before I even went back that drama will always be there.... I now choose to talk to a few with deep thoughts, and talk in passing to a few and even just keep it job related with others. I am there to work, not really make friends. Most people remember me as a big ol bitch.... and I just might prefer it that way! :0)

Where's my raise?

With the "rising" cost of gas... everything is seeing the toll! Food has gone up, just heard on the news that the gas prices for PNM is going up by 9 bucks, even gas to get from point "A" to point "B" has gone up. Yesterday on my way to work gas was $3.67, on my way home, at the same station, it went up to $3.79!
So apparently everything is going up, but MY pay?!
Ever ponder how us people are gonna get where we need to go, let alone pay for bills? Companies dont want to put out any more money on people to get them to work because the company itself is suffering too!
This is crazy!! When is it gonna stop??

Wordless Wednesday!

Mistress Xbox!!

My husband is having an affair! Or maybe it is an addiction. Either way it's pissin me off! LOL
I go to work, and people ask what I did last night..... "oh I watched TV" they say "what did you watch" my response "My husband.... play xbox live!"
Pretty much every night that there is not something on TV that he wants to watch.... I am tortured with having to watch freaking xbox live! Bad........
Then today... I walk in the house approximately 30 minutes AFTER him..... can ya guess what he is doing?! Yup.... having an affair!

Guess when it really comes down to what else we would be doing..... it would be a whole lot of nothing. But seriously...... when does this shit become addicting, right?!

My own waxing story......

There was a email circulating about a gal who, in short, waxed her butt cheeks together while she was trying to wax her bikini area....... let me tell you my waxing story.....

One of my best friends cuts my hair and waxes my eye brows. Ok so she is a beautician!
Well I thought I would save her the hassle of waxing my furry critters on a monthly basis...
I am, what you would call an AVON lady, I have no shame in buying anything from there!
So I see a waxing kit.... I think, right on!!! I can do this myself... how hard is it?
I get my order which contains the waxing kit. And I read the instructions, just in case you should be a brain surgeon to perform such a task.
I heat the wax, then stir, then heat it some more. I take the wax out of the microwave... I was so excited by my do it yourself task that I spill it on my right hand. I say a very loud four letter word, put my wax down and the fun began!!
In all my brillance, I went to wash my hands ..... I rubbed them together... putting wax on my right hand. Another four letter word fell out of my mouth. I squirt soap on my hands, only to spread the wax around even more. So I had to dry my hands before I could attempt to get the wax off my hands. I grabbed a paper towel.... did you know paper towels stick to hands with wax covered all over them?! Wasn't a pretty scene!
Tried icing my hands..... didn't work!
Tried hot water.... didn't work!
Tried peeling the shit off my hands.... as you guessed, that didnt work either!
So I swallow my pride, knowing that no matter what I did, my hands would always be covered in wax, and called Juanita!
I reminded her about the time I cut my own hair and asked her how much she loved me. She immediately asked "What did you do?" I said "Well do you remember the email about the lady that waxed her buttcheeks together?" And she started laughing at me. I told her my situation.
The smartest person in the world...... after she got past all her laughing, told me to put Vegetable oil on my hands and it should come off. Brillant!! I hang up... go to the pantry, get out my vegetable oil and go to town. I'll be damned if that stuff didnt come off!! I immediately went up stairs, took a shower and came down to tackle everything I touched! Wow.... Juanita is the smartest girl in the world!! So right! LOL...
Needless to say.... I have learned not to be in a rush when trying to waxing my own eye brows! And I learned that maybe, just maybe... plucking is the easiest way to go!
Did I learn, hell no.....I'll be back at it again! :o)
I am just glad I tried waxing my eyebrows the first time and not my bikini area! Poor Juaniters would have had to have been called in to help a sista out!!! YIKES!!!

I got a "lurker".....

So I write my blogs just for something to do. Most of the time they make no sense right?! Well anyway, I have a fan! I learned today that someone I saw in passing at work, way back when.... follows my blog. Shout out to Suicidal Jane... LOL Anyway, really made me feel like a superstar in a wierd kind of way.
Am I that interesting? Or is it that she is that bored?! hehehe But I must admit... I too was nosing around the different blogs and did read hers a time or two. I suppose if you have a blog it is open for anyone to read unless you lock it down for your own reasons.
I admit I am no Dooce, but damn it I am trying!

On a heavier note... I must get off from blogging to go pick up the dead gutted rabbit that my stupid cat brought home today.

Busy, Busy Busy

I know lately I have no been posting like I have in the past, and I have a really good reason for it. I got a life again!! LOL
I quit the night job at Wal-mart and went back to the day job I had for 5 years before the baby was born. As a matter of fact I was thinking this morning..... that job has seen me get married and have 2 kids! I got married almost 6 years ago! All in all I am glad to be back in an enviroment that I like. Yesterday was my first day and it sort of felt like I was in school and gone for the summer. I got to see all the people that I have spent some time with over the years! It was nice. It is all so new again, so I will post next week to tell you I cant stand it again... LOL
Any way, lots of focusing on Lauren, my step daughter. Not too sure what her intentions were when she decided to come out here. Not too sure why she even came. It sure was easier without her here and it didnt cause the strain on my relationship like it does now (again!). I can honestly tell you I have really tried this time around to be a better step monster to her. But that isnt good enough for her. She looks up to her mother..... a woman that treats her like a sister rather than a friend. I do remember a time where Lauren told my husband and I, her mother "neglected and abused" her and her brother. I now think her mother has something on her that Lauren is worried will get back to us if she does not continue to kiss her ass. Anyway, Lauren is striving to be her mother!! sad......
Payton can walk.... but wont! She is the laziest thing I have ever seen! LOL She better get used to it because she starts daycare on June 2nd and HAS to walk all the time there!
That is my life over the past week in a nutshell. I must get my children ready for the day and get out the door to go to work!
