I’m fixin’ to blog, y’all.

Thursday, August 14th, 2008
By Beth

I’m sitting in my living room, drinking coffee and listening to Ariel, Racecar and Christy’s son BJ play Wii.  Christy just got done creating her Mii character (she’s a Wii virgin!).  She’s about to bowl her first game of bowling.

Although my throat still hurts like an em effer, my fever just broke and I’m sweating like a 400 pound man sitting in the sun in the middle of August and my glands are swollen to the point that I look just like John McCain, despite all of these things, I kinda feel like I’m in heaven right now.

I mean, CHRISTY is in my house.  HER KIDS are in my house.  We are drinking coffee TOGETHER, in our ghetto pajamas (mine with a hole, hers with oreo cookie ice cream on the front), we are both on our RED (ruby and roja) laptops and we don’t even get annoyed when one person is blogging while the other is not.  AND I introduced dunking BUG BITES in coffee to Christy and let’s just say we’ll be needing to pick up a few more boxes at some point today. or as Christy says "I’m FIXIN’ to pick up some Bug Bites."   I love it when she says fixin’.  and y’all.

The situation is quite perfect, the only thing that will make this situation better would be if my throat didn’t hurt so damn bad, but that’s okay, I’ll survive.  That’s how good everything is right now, the strept throat really doesn’t matter all that much.  Unless I need to, you know, talk or drink water.

My blogging time is up, we have important things to do like Wii bowling and going to Target.

Mommy’s sick, go ask your Dad.

Monday, August 11th, 2008
By Beth

Guess what?  I’m sick.

Which is bad for me because I have 75,000 things to do.

But good for you because I’m actually sitting down and doing nothing.

So, I’ll blog.  But it could be bad for you because I’ll just sit and complain and I’ll probably have all sorts of grammar and spelling errors, so please, forgive.

My throat, ears and head hurt.  My nose is stuffy and my body aches.  Oh and if this wasn’t fun enough, I started my period today which hurts.  It sorta feels like my uterus is trying to come out of my butt.    Can you imagine how much fun it is to live with me?  And this Wednesday, Christy is coming to stay with us until Sunday and I can’t wait, but the first thing she may have to do is clean and do my laundry.  And I know she would because she loves me.  A lot.

Steph, Crooked Eyebrow and I gathered at a park today.  When approached about the play date this morning I was all like "I can’t, I’m sick, my house is a DISASTER, I have laundry to do, shopping to do and somewhere I have to sneak in a shower because I stank."  but then I realized I’m sick and can’t do any of those things, so we went to the park with them and it was fun and relaxing.  I love our kids. 

Of course, in two hours we took 5,000 pictures and I want to show them to you, but downloading them means walking the 20 feet to my camera which I can’t do because I’m almost dead.

I would ask Brian to get them for me but he has already gone to the bank, Walgreens and Taco Bell for me, and he’s only been home for two hours.  Plus, he has tons of Ikea furniture to build.

I need to rest now because watching Brian do all of the work is wearing me out, but I wanted to let you know that ruby & roja has a new website and it’s so beautiful.  If you ever wanted to move to WordPress (which we did), Heather from Desperately Seeking Sanity did the transfer for us and the installation, she has a business called Desperately Seeking WordPress.  She is beyond awesome, seriously.  Go look at the awesomeness of ruby & roja and guess what?  We are giving away a blog design, too.

Also, one of my posts made it over at Blog Nosh, which is a cool site that select posts from blogger’s archives.  The post they chose is from the initial weeks after losing James and Jake.  I’m extra touched by them choosing me because I have a hard time believing that anyone feels my blogging is considered writing at all.  You should head over there. 

I bet you are going to want a chocolate donut or a cupcake when you go.  You’ll see why.

Hello. Goodbye.

I blogged over here.  I think you’ll notice that I had my photo updated, which is good except that it’s not because OMG my head looks huge and I apparently need to learn how to apply eyeliner, because where did my eyes go?  So, hey, maybe don’t go there at all?  But if you do, cover your eyes.  k?

and if you haven’t entered for a chance to win a fabulous blog design, get creative and go enter here!  This organization needs your fabulous ideas – yes, YOURS!  Hurry, the contest ends tomorrow!
