I will not be posting tonight as my computer has been taken over by Joel. He and Steve are gaming this evening and I am going to some reading.

Cheers to all.

November 2001

5. What's your worst hair-related experience
I dyed my hair hyacinth red for about 1 year or so. I was rather tired of needing to dye every six weeks ( I have very fast growing hair). So I decided to dye my hair back to its natural medium brown. Well.... my hair had become very porous from all of the previous dying and the brown was sucked in before I even got the bottle near my head. My hair was darker than black tar. It was darker than midnight. I went to the salon were I was told that the only soloution was a very close shave. hehehe So I went around with coal black hair for almost a year.

yes I am good!!! I fixed the stupid archives :-) Ok now I can go to bed. I am being very overstimulated tonight. Everybody is in the computer room. Haley won't stop crying over the cheerleading issue. I just don't feel it is a good thing for her. I think it has more to do with this whole Sara issue than she is letting on. She said she is worried that Sara is going to call her a chicken for the rest of her life and make fun of her because she didn't sign up. I want Haley to be involved in something she likes to do. I just don't like this obession with cheerleading. It all started when she saw the movie "Bring It On" which she shouldn't have seen in the first place.

It is late and considering I have been sitting here for the past 4 hours I think I should go now.

I updated all my links and such, added my poetry page, fixed the archives I feel as though I accomplished a lot in four hours. yea to me :-)

good night all.

Cuold you see Steve dressed as an elf????

Yes mom of course you count!!!! I love you. Ok I was feeling little sad that my only IRL friend lives the about a bazllion miles away. Sorry for the depressing entry below. I am feeling much better today. I was down to one happy pill and was a little worried that they weren't going to get here in time. But the ever wonderful UPS dude dropped them off yesterday afternoon. Work has been ok. So far this week I have acrued 2 hours of overtime. Oh don't worry they wont let me keep it. I just have to manage to cut it by Sunday. I am hoping to leave at noon today. Or I could skip lunch and leave at 11. But that is highly unlikely as I am the only bookkeeper till 2. I think the word bookkeeper is a neat word, would you look at all those double letters.

Haley and I made all the go withs for dinner last night. Steve cooked dead animals on the grill. Then Haley and I made Chinese Cherry Dumplings. (I'll post recipie later today) We had a very nice family dinner. Cameron was a bit hyper last night. I think it was because I didn't structure his free time after school. When he has unlimited freedom things get a little out of hand. Ha even managed to scrape off most of the frosting on the bathroom window. Which is fine because I had to redo it anyway, but he and I had already talked about the window and he knew better. I told Cam that I was very sad that he did that to the window after all the hard work I did on it. He snuggled up to me and said in a near tears voice that he was very sorry for hurting my feelings.

ok I just realized the time I must leave now for work. Yes I know it is 4 am I'm a crackhead. What can I say. :-D

Weekend at Sarah's

It was fab. Totally fab.. The kids had a great time as did I. I am rather sad since coming home tho. I was very nice to have a real life friend outside of work. Sarah I really miss you and Matt and esp. the kids. I was totatly bummed at work all day today. I was even sad when I went to the health food store. It smelled like Sarah's pantry :-(

I haven't really felt much like blogging since coming home. And not to mention the I probably talked to the few people who actually read this thing, so I didn't really feel the need to update.

Cam and Steve and I made Marbled Fairy Milk tonight. You take a pie pan fill it with milk. Add 1-2 drops of food coloring. Then add drops of dish soap directly on top of the food coloring drops. The colors then swirl around a bit. It was an interesting project.

Tea Tree Oil

Well I am testing tea tree oil on the kids. It is suppose to get rid of warts and heal cuts and toe nail fungus. It smells rather odd and I couldn't imagine using it as a mouthwash. The HFS had lots of tea tree things for dental hygine. ICK!!! If it tastes anything like it smells I think I'll pass.

On the advice of my beloved Sarah, I think I am going to try a detoxing tea for better intestional and colon health. We shall see. Our HFS seemed well stocked but I could not find the vegan choco chips. There are about a dozen stores in the greater harrisburg are so I think I shall find them somewhere.

I have so much film I want to develop but I'll have to wait till next payday.

I talked to Joe today and he said he would work on scanning my pics for me. Hopefull I'll get the disc tomorrow then I can update the sad little webpage that nobody goes to anyway. Yes I am feeling sorry for myself. I miss Sarah. :-( I am going to post this now before I begin to feel even sorrier (is that even a word) for myself.

But I told Joe that i was only working a half day. Steve is picking the kids up from school at 11 and bringing them down to work for me. That way I don't have to do an extra hour of driving. I am so sleepy. I need to get Cam bathed and in bed. Oh so much to do. Who's idea was this??? You yeah mine :-P

A representative will be with you in approximatly 60 minutes...
Well I hope they answer sooner thatn that. I am currently on hold with AT&T. my cell phone screen is blank. I can make calls and take calls I just can't see anything. Which means I can't see the tele numbers to call with the other phone. Silly me for putting my numbers on my phone. So I could be packing now oh well.

Sarah you will have soooo much stuff to add to your toy list :-) We lave lots of presents for Maya and Sagan. I wish the speaker part of this phone worked. grrr

guess I'll surf the web while I wait. Maybe I'll pop over to Lance Crackers website. And complain that I can't find my favorite crackers.

Staples
Why did they need to use so many staples?? I spent most of last night pulling staples from the floor in the master bedroom. I wonder if the guys laying the carpet felt guilty about putting carpet over the hardwood floors?? I wonder if the people who glued the rubberbacked carpet to the hardwood floors felt guilty also? All the rooms are painted around the edges. Literally there are pencil lines drawn around where their rugs were and they painted up to the lines. Yellow and brown. Everything they (orig. owners c.1900) painted was yellow and brown, ick. I hope to finsh pulling the staples out of Cam's room this week. There is a big canvas drop cloth covering his floor to protect his little feet. I also have a lot to do planning for the big trip to Sarah's.

Redemption
Haley redeemed her self yesterday. She baked a lovely yellow cake using the butter recipie. Her homemade frosting was a bit runny. Frosting is a new area for her. She also made me lunch. My favorite, little pizzas in the sandwich maker. She didn't need to do all of that to redeem herself, she just needed to lose the attitude. I swear she was on an emotional roller coaster yesterday. Class can we say, all together now, HORMONES!!!!! eeekk! I am not ready for this.

Money or the lack there of
Today I have the pleasure of calling all the people who have returned checks to us. Then I also get to prepare the papers for the District Justice and the Police, for the people who haven't come in to pay. We just had a sudden influx at work regarding returned checks. It will probably take me all afternoon. That is good tho, work will fly today. It always does when I work the closing shift. If Steve didn't work nights I would work closes during the week.

And that's the end :-)

Completed all tasks save one. All the carpet is gone!!!! Well except for the little bit in the kitchen. Now I need to do a deep clean of the house. Hummm where to start. I think I'll start in the master bedroom. Cameron's hair looks ok. He cut it about a week ago and to fix it she would have had to shave his head. Needless to say I did not want his head shaved.

Haley is being, something, not herself today. She has done nothing but complain and pester. I am rather irritated with her.

Time to clean. Steve is going to do yard work and hopfully we will go out for dinner.

posted by Lady_Indigo 1:40 PM

Good morning!!! I slept for 9 1/2 hours. Yeah!!!! Today is Trash Day. Soon Steve and I will be loading up the truck with all of our junk. It will be so nice to clear all that stuff from the basemenat and attic. Not to mention the carpet. Did I mention how happy I am about the carpet. Cam slept all night and actually is still sleeping. I should go wake him.

Weight Watchers

My step-mother called me last ngiht to tell me of her success with Weight Watchers. Dad also has been following the points program with her. He lost 20lbs. Mom lost 15lbs. I think I may have to go visit them and get the info. Perhaps this will help me.

Lots of stuff planned for today. Trash, Cam's hair cut, clean the house, I think that about covers it all. Well I guess I should get started. But I must shower first.

Have A great Day.

posted by Lady_Indigo 7:58 AM

Well guess who went to sleep at 9:15 pm last night??? He slept till 9:30am this morning. I couldn't believe it. I just sat next to him last night and kept looking at him. I asked him if he was asleep and he didn't move or make a sound. Awesome!!!!!!!! Work was great today. Everything clicked right along. No one was there to bother me. ( I don't know what is up with the managers this week, I haven't seen them hardly at all) I came home Steve and I visited for a bit ;-) Then took a nice nap. He is still sleeping, Cameron wanted me to see what he built with his lincoln logs. I should find some dinner as I am starving. And there is going to be one exciting game of yahtzee at the table in a bit.

Tonight my be the first night I will not be able to enjoy Adventures at Night with Cameron his doctor perscribed a new medicine in addition to Concerta it is Clonidine. For adults it is a blood pressure med. For children with ADD/ADHD it is a sleep inducer. Go figure.

Steve made a lovely pizza for dinner. He has a bread maker and makes his own dough from scratch.

I am not feeling very witty at the momment. Too many late nights with Cam and my brain is fried. I think I would like to go to bed now. I wonder Steve could get the kids off to bed before he leaves for work at 9?

Now I have seen it all
A patriotic garden in todays newspaper with instrustions on where to put what plants so it looks like a flag. (do you think people don't know how to make a flag and if they don't do you think we should let them out of their houses?) . Ok I am down with being American and all that and brotherly love and respect for each other. But I have a little trouble with it when the guy who cuts you off at 4am has 4 American flags on his SUV. Where is his brotherly love?? After all I am not a slow driver by any means. Ugh people never fail to amaze me.

That that that that's all folks.

Adventures at Night with Cameron He finished off the whole container of frosting. Then was palying School House Rock till 1 am. When I brought him back to bed he kept rolling away and sneaking off the end of the bed. I said "Cameron where are you?" He rolled back over to me wrapped his arms around my neck and said "mommy I will lie closer to you so you won't be so nervous about me going away again".That's my boy.

Another new blog comming your way Adventures in Cheerleading with Haley I am confused. She wants to be a cheerleader. She does flips all over the house, inside and outside. She wacks her foot on the diswasher tonight. Twenty minutes later she wants to go outside and do more flips. She does one. She cries that her foot hurts. I ask "Then why are you doing flips?" She replies, "because I want to". Ok fine and dandy, whatever. (on medical terms she has probably bruised the tendons/ligaments in her foot, no frets nothing is broken) I wonder what she is going to to do when she gets her two front teeth knocked out trying to do some kind of flying stunt? She will be a flyer person no doubt because she only weighs like 5 lbs.

I am a little grouchy still this evening. Steve hasn't made dinner for the past 4 nights. I hate cooking. He is dieting and so he doesn't cook :-(. Also I am a little worn out because of Adventures at Night with Cameron. Nothing like waking up every hour or two from 10pm and then having to get up at 3:30 am for work. Oh well. I suppose I should go retrive Cameron from the outside and have him do his homework.






And there we have it.

A BLUE Dragon Lies Beneath!

I took the Inner Dragon online quiz and found out I am a Blue Dragon on the inside. If there ever was a draconic example of a supple attitude, my Inner Dragon is it. Blues are the Water Elemental dragon - typified by their Steam breath weapon. Pretty creative, huh? It goes right along with my Inner Dragon's tendency to maim, but not destroy. Much like my native oceans and rivers will deform the rock over time, eventually wearing it away to nothing.



Humans shouldn't make the mistake of thinking I'm weak, however. After all I'm a good 30 feet in length and have a penchant for materializing out of any body of water, no matter how small. I also enjoy communicating with aquatic life-forms, hunting in totally inhospitable terrain (i.e. 3000 feet below the waves), and using my fluid nature to my advantage. My enemies probably won't even see me approach in the first place. My favorable attributes are the sunset, Autumn, water, compassion, intuition, and calmness. Naturally, I pity the fool who'd try and prove that calmness part, he'd probably wind up being scalded. *small grin*
