Stress and Wine

My new course of action in life will be to live a stress free life with a lot of fun in it. For many years now I have been tied to a business that has taken away all my time for fun and life basically! So I have come to the realization that this is just not worth it anymore. I mean really if you think about it, I could have been on a movie set for months watching Johnny Dept so what the hell am I doing here stressing every day and watching my hair turn white. And I mean WHITE! Not grey not shades of silver not salt and pepper freaking WHITE. I went to get my hair done the other day and told her "hey I cam to you so I would not have this big line of white roots showing up you gotta fix this crap!" So now I am blond. And I still see the white. I think I am going to shave my head and let it grow out or something.

During this process of realization I have also found out that I can appreciate a good wine. Who knew? I used to hate wine but with all this stress I have come to find out I don't hate wine I just like really good wine! LOL... So as long as I have a good bottle of Pino Grigo I am in a good mood. I think I will switch off every other day, Corona then Pino Corono then Pino, sounds like a master plan to me.

Today it is beautiful outside so I am going to work on the garden and clean up a bit on the outside then open a bottle of wine for myself and clean the house. I might need two bottles, my house is a disaster. I am off on a new path in my life and we shall see how it all works out!

Raining Pouring Wish I was Snoring

So not really a lot of stuff going on with me right now. Other then the usual, taking care of the business, taking care of the kids, taking care of the dogs, taking care of the cats, taking care of the garden. Wow guess I do have some stuff going on right now.

So I get a call last night at 9:15 for the Hubby. “Hey you remember that class action law suite I filled out for work?” “Ah no when was this?” “Are you kidding me you don’t remember?” “Ah no when was it?” So I am racking my brain trying to figure out what the hell he is talking about. So I finally say ah okay yeah. But of course I am lying cuz I have no clue what he is talking about and he is clearly getting frustrated with me. So he starts to tell me that he filled it out and I was supposed to mail it. A while back. I am still thinking what the hell I have no recollection of this. Finally after 15 minutes of complaining about how I am unable to remember this major even in his life, he informs me it was like 3 or 4 years ago. OH MY GOD, do I look like a computer or something that can just search for a file. I mean seriously, I can’t remember what I did a week ago, how in the F*@# am I supposed to remember something from that long ago. He must think I have nothing better to do then file each day’s events by date and store them on my hard drive in my head. Even after all his complaining I told him I still didn’t remember. He was a little pissed off. LOL oh well I mean the guy must really think I am wonder woman or something. Now if I was smart I would have said something stupid like do you remember the shit you were wearing when we first dated? Of course it would have been my luck that he would have and I have no clue. So sometimes keeping one’s mouth shut is the best idea I think.

On the Garden front – Okay Corona does not work unless you actually replant the plants you want to save. I killed the squash and the cucumber plants. I am such a tard! Maybe I will go get a couple more and plant them this time. Green bean plants are growing like crazy though. Those things grow at least a inch a day. I don’t know how they do it. Now if I could figure out how they grow at a inch a day and convert that into losing a inch a day for me I would be rich! Maybe I should have paid more attention in science class?

Tuesday – I am thinking of possibly going down to Disneyland with a friend of mine and my son’s school. She is driving her own car down. Now it would be fun and all I have to do is pay for a Disneyland park pass, which is a discounted rate, but I am not sure I want to be gone for 3 says at Disneyland. But you never know I might be blogging from the hotel. I will let you know if I go! Only down side is riding home on a bus with the kids.

July I will be traveling with my son’s drum and bugle corps. on tour. I offered to help them out. I figured it would be a great way to see the country and contribute my share of help and get out of the house. Now here’s my problem with the whole thing. The end of the tour is on my birthday and I have plans to go to Tahoe and have a lucky birthday! I mean how often does 08/08/08 come around? It must be a lucky day I would guess I am going to win big! On the other hand could be the most unlucky day of gambling ever and then I would be pissed that I came home. So what should I do? You did notice I didn’t even complain about sleeping on a bus or on a school gym floor didn’t you? In any event I will keep you posted. Maybe I will go and come home from NY???? Really gotta think about this one.

Turkey Invasion

Okay so I am sitting at the computer as i always am! I hear this boom bang crash gobble gobble. I am like , what the hell was that. "Mom a turkey is in the dog's yard got get it" Go get it? What the hell how am I gonna get a turkey. okay well i am the Mom and like any good Mom I go running out to the yard to see what I can do. So as you know I have 300 plus pounds of dogs to control as they want to know how come i never got them a chewy toy that could fly before. So hear i am screaming at the dogs. "Bella, no Bella no God damn it Bella get away" "Shit buddy no buddy no god damn it where is the hose"? No response from the dogs they want to play with this stupid damn turkey that has flown in the yard. I finally get the dogs away and look at Bella and she has feathers in her mouth. Great she is killing the turkey or so I think anyways.

So I am screaming at the dogs, it is 100 degrees outside i am pissed off and have a freaked out turkey in my yard. I know, I will just put the dogs in the house open the gate and the turkey will just walk out. So off i go back in the house with the dogs. I wait a couple of hours and let the dogs out and close the gate. The Turkey must be gone by now. shit off go the dogs the stupid turkey is still in the yard. I cant believe it! What the hell! This is the dumbest turkey in the world. now I feel even worse because I notice it is a girl turkey and I know she probably has a nest somewhere around here. So back in the house go the dogs and i close the door. Forget it I think to myself, when the son gets home he can deal with it.

Andrew gets home, I yell hey, go check the yard for a turkey. he's like what the hell are you talking about. So i explain - quickly cuz i am in the car now, and he goes off to look. When I get back he says Mom no turkey was in the yard. Great I think to myself, because we all ready know I was going to start looking for the Turkey Rescue people if I couldn't get it out of the yard.

Well I have no idea if there is a dead turkey in the yard or not actually because my son didn't walk the whole damn fence line and I am to afraid to walk it in fear that I might find a dead turkey.

honestly i don't think i am cut out for the country life. Normal people would have probably killed it and ate the damn thing. And here I am trying to figure out how to save this stupid bird. Something is wrong with this picture don't ya think? I am such a tard. Maybe I should go look and see if the damn Turkey is gone by now.

Saturday and nothing to do

Now just the sound of that sucks! Well I have plenty to do, just don't feel like doing anything at all. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that yesterday I went to a local winery and proceeded to help drink 2 bottles of Pino Grigo wine, which I must admit was very tasty, and then went to a local bar and had a few Corona's. You think that might be why I don't feel like doing anything today? LOL

Tomorrow is Mother's Day - Happy Mother's Day to all you Mother's! LOL. I got a very beautiful boutique of Hawaiian flowers from the hubby. I was like WOW where are the tickets, maybe he is flying me to Hawaii????? Damn it no tickets, no such like or should I say it's just my luck. I laughed and told him "is a car coming to pick me up and take me to the airport to catch the plan"? He says what the hell are you talking about? Have you lost your mind or something? I guess maybe I did for a minute or two. But on the plus side I hear I am getting my very own picture of Johnny Depp, with a lovely little autograph to meeeeee!! That's a better gift anyways I love that guy. Oh yeah I told all of you that all ready.

I will have a few Corona's for all of you tomorrow and hope that you all have a excellent day!!! I did tell the hubby a better gift then the picture of JD would be if he just sent him home so I could "visit" with him for a couple of days!!!!! LOL it didn't go over that well............ but I thought it was funny!

Hello to all the new friends

Thanks for coming and checking out my blog. I hope you enjoy reading about my life and what goes on in it. When I read back over the posts I have made, they make me laugh. For those of you who don’t know I sent out my newsletter to everyone and gave them my blog address. I am hoping they have some great stores to tell us as well. We can’t be the only ones in the world were everything is f!!@ed up! I was sitting here reading over my past posts and thought to myself, at least I wasn’t talking out loud to myself, hey I wonder if my customer base would have fun with this? So I decided to send out a newsletter and give them the web address! Welcome to all of you have come on over and I hope you find the time to say hello!

The damn dogs keep me up all night. So I have these two beautiful dogs. Buddy he is a Brazilian Mastiff and weights 180 pounds at last weigh in and is the biggest baby I have ever seen in my life. He doesn’t like people to much, well unless you’re a girl. My daughter said hey mom I want a dog and I want this big ass dog. So I, being the great mom that I am said let me think about it. Well we were moving up to 10 acres in the country so a big dog would be nice. I mean what the heck right? Little did I know how much a big dog eats? In my mind I am thinking oh a little food here and there. LOL yeah right. This dog is so damn big it isn’t even funny. And of course we get this dog when the hubby is away on a job. So I had to stress about whether this dog would even like the hubby or not. Well the dog loves the hubby which is a good thing cuz one would have to go and I think with how big the dog is the hubby would have lost the battle. Anyway this dog is such a big cry baby and whines and whines and whines all damn day so I get this great idea, let’s get him a girlfriend. So we did, we got him a Neapolitan Mastiff girlfriend, her name is Bella Blue (because she is blue gray) and the whole time she was growing up, this little tiny puppy, we were thinking she will never be big enough to play with this 180 pound dog. Guess what, we were wrong, she is 140 pounds and can kick his ass when she wants to. One would think the damn girlfriend Bella would keep Buddy from whining right? Nope, now we have two very large dogs that eat more then any human could ever eat in a life time and whine all day and want to be with you every minute of every day. And to top it off they think that my bed is their bed and sleep with me. So two huge dogs and two cats take up the whole king sized bed and I get no sleep. So I have a plan………

You guessed it I am getting another Corona if I drink enough I wont care that they take up the whole bed and I can sleep anywhere! Dogs, wonder if I could actually get them to work or something? At least they could attempt to earn their keep around here. Now not only do I need to figure out how to make my own booze, grown my own food, save up money to get a solar powered car, I think I need to raise cattle or something so the dogs can have some food! Will it ever end?

By the way a stupid barrel of oil hit 124.00 or something like that. You know I bet if I dig down far enough I might have oil around here somewhere????? Yep a few more Coronas and a shovel should do just fine. I will let you know if I find oil... LOL

Lots of Love

Kicking back with my Corona

So I started this whole blog thing with all my friends and of course I am getting bitched at daily cuz I am not blogging enough! I can never win! Well let's start off with this week and what I have been up to. So I was extremely depressed over this last weekend and tried to take my mind off things and just forget about all the stress I have been dealing with. It helped a bit but then Monday hit and it was all right back in the fore front of my mind. All I could do was sit and cry. Think I was a failure. Then watch the news and feel the whole world was crumbling in front of my eyes. Later that day I decided to go out and water the garden I am attempting to grow. Of course I have a garden I can't afford the damn food bill! So out I got with my hose, my beer and a cig! Sweet it is beautiful outside! A plus in my otherwise stressful daily life. I go water all my plants and I notice that I forgot to plant a couple of them. Shit! they are so wilted I am sure they are dead! perfect I can add "Brown Thumb" to the list of shit I am pissed about. I spent 1.00 on each of these plants and of course cucumbers and squash are always on sale! Figures... I think to myself and off I go back into the house, because I am going to nurse these little suckers back to life! I will be damned if I am going to let these two plants - that everyone in the world tells me CAN NOT - DIE! Basically everyone said if you kill a squash plant you have no hope. For fucks sake I think to myself as I have these 2 little plants in my hands. I am talking to them, as this has become my favorite past time apparently, "oh come on you guys I will give you some corona if you don't die". You know what - It worked the little suckers perked up with some corona and a little water!

So the moral to my story is Corona is the perfect fix all for everything! I feel better after a few Coronas and so do my plants! These are gonna be some kick ass squash and cucumbers that's for sure! Gonna give them a little Corona every other day I will keep you posted! And if your lucky I will send you guys all some LOL!!!!

What the hell to do?

With the economy taking a crap, housing market taking a crap, the high cost of grocery's, the high cost of gas and the unemployment rate through the roof, Life looks pretty shitty right? So as always I am talking with my friends and brainstorming on what to do to make money and how to get rich quick! Like it's even possibly in this day and age. So the other night I found my self on the phone with Laura and we were discussing one of our many ideas on how to get rich and become millionaires etc etc. Remember we were gonna grow rice! LOL. So we have come up with a new partial plan that I think just might work. We are going to open a Medical Marijuana store. This is perfect. We know we can make millions! The ideal choice in a career move. Only a few hurdles to over come but I think it is a realistic dream and the way of the future. After laughing our asses off about our new life plan we hung up and I decided to investigate this possibility further. I mean that's what I do investigate things. So I take this new vision and discuss it with my mother. Wow she thinks its fantastic and even better if we become a church and a medical marijuana place. I can see it now we are going to get ordained become a church and sell medical marijuana. This will work perfect with LASFALS.

I have a new task at hand, my mother has decided she is going to be Queen of the universe and abolish all political parties and government. I am going to be the Secretary of Defense, which I must humbly admit I would be perfect at! So now all I need to do is make her a blog spot and we can get her elected and take over! I love it, between that and the church thing we should really have it going on!

Nothing really exciting happening today other then it it's Mickey's Birthday today and I am sad I could not be down in southern California with her to celebrate with all that bud lite she likes! But HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICKEY I am thinking of you always.

Went out to dinner tonight and have decided I like Pino Grigio wine. Now I just need a case or 2 and everything will be fine in my world!

Send me your damn drink recipes so i can get lasfals up and running!

Love you all

Cindy

Me and the Lawn Mower

Okay you all ready know it's gonna be funny! So I am sitting here on Friday thinking I should get out of the house and go mow the lawn, well the weeds, we really don't have a lawn. So here is the story.

I just used the weed whacker a few days ago and I go out side and try to pull start the thing. I must have pulled it 10 times, nothing, it won't start and I am all ready out of breath from trying it. So I think to myself, because no one is here, I am going to get out the ride on lawn mower, that's a great idea, I can ride around on the lawn mower and drink a beer. Perfect, so I make my way up the the barn. I have to get the barn door open which is like 100 feet tall. Everything is a 100 feet tall when your 5 foot 2. The damn door must weigh 800 pounds. You have to push this door up with all your strength and hope that it stays up. So here I am, remember I am all ready exhausted from the attempt to pull start the weed whacker. And for your information I have yet to have a beer. So I push this door up 6 times, every time the damn thing keeps falling back down. hey I got it I will tie it off with this little tiny rope and find something to stick under it and hold it up. The sweat is now pouring down my face and I am getting seriously pissed off. Tie it to what? Shit that wont work so down goes the door again while I attempt to find something, anything to hold the door open with. What the hell do i have to go through just to simply mow down some damn weeds. So i find a shelving bracket and I mean a LARGE bracket this thing is easily 10 feet long or 12 feet, remember I am 5 foot 2 on a very good day. With metal bracket, weight of 50 pounds, in hand I go back to the barn roll up door. I have 50 pounds of metal in one hand and 1 hand to shove the 800 pound door up with. So I get under the door and shove with 1 hand it goes up like 1 foot. There is no way in hell I can get this damn piece of metal under it so down goes the door. by now I have freaking out and talking to myself. "all i want to do is mow the damn weeds". So I go and find a broom, at least it is shorter then I am so I can make that work. I get the door propped open. I find the key to the ride on mower and look at the gas, oh well it could use some gas. So I search all over the place and finally find the gas can. I proceed to put gas in the thing to only find out that my hubby didn't screw the top on all the way. Of course now I have spilled gas all over the floor. "F!@%k this stupid POS lawn mower crap" is now spilling out of my mouth. Now I am worried the damn thing is going to start a fire if I try to start it inside the barn. So I decide that it is far safer and better for me to push this thing out of the barn and start it outside. Remember I am sweating my ass off and cursing like a sailor by now and talking to myself. I push and push the damn thing won't move, it must be in gear right? No it was in neutral!! "Damn it what does it take to mow the weeds" I am again talking to myself. Finally get the stupid thing out the door. Put the key in and try and start it! Oh hell no, the thing has a dead battery. Now I am seriously pissed off, like I wasn't before? LOL! Where the hell is the stupid battery charger thing I need. I find it, great now I need a damn extension cord to power it. Oh no not 1 cord I need freaking 3 damn cords to reach. Okay got it plugged in now I hook it up to the battery and look at this POS (piece of shit for those of you who don't know that) what the hell is Super Charge, Off and Charge. Well I figure out off, obviously, but remember I am on a mission and want to mow the weeds so "Super Charge" is what I pick. Call the hubby and tell him he says "NO NO not the Super Charge"! Okay it's on charge. Let it sit for a hour or two. By now I am so pissed off that I say "DAMN IT SOMETHING IS GETTING MOWED IF IT KILLS ME". I drag the gas can down to the push lawn mower and fill it up, proceeding to spill gas all over the place because now I have lost my damn glasses. Whatever something is getting mowed! 2 pulls it starts! Thank god I can mow! Ah my glasses, so off I go with the damn walk behind mower. I can tell you this much "I HATE MOWING THE WEEDS"!

Finally my son gets home and by now I am fully winded and exhausted! I have walked and walked and walked pushing this damn mower through the weeds that are up to my thighs and it keeps stalling because the weeds are so damn thick. I ask my son what the hell is wrong with the stupid ride on lawn mower? he says something totally stupid like "Mom why don't we just jump start it with the car"! DAMN IT why didn't I think of that. Of course the little shit gets it started right away. So off on the lawn mower he goes. Mows about 2 feet and is done. So i am gonna ride it now, screw that I need to get some weeds mowed. Still have not had my beer at this point! So off I go and ride all over the place in weeds taller then me. I make paths all over and think i am doing a fantastic job! It's starting to get dark outside and I need to go to the grocery store AGAIN! I come in the house and think I better change my clothes I got a bit dirty mowing the weeds. I walk toward my sons room and tell him let's go get some food at the store. "Mom what the hell is all over your face"? I look at him like he is from another planet. "What the hell are you talking about"? Kids what the hell do they know anyways. So off to the bathroom I go to take a look. My face is completely brown from dirt and the only clean spot is where my glasses where on my face! I should have gone to the store like that! So then I tell my good friend Laura last night the story about my face and she just starts busting up and says could you imagine if you did go to the store like that. someone would say excuse me you have something on your face! Where, I would say? Everywhere but where your glasses were! LOL So the moral to this little story I have figured out --- Have your damn beer first and that way you wont give a shit! And leave the mowing to the hubby! By the way I kinda ran 2 days together here!

Stupid lawn mowers!

P.S. Still working on the recipes for LASFALS! Gonna figure out how to make cheap good booze!

A True City Girl Tells A Story

So last night I went out with a new friend Annette. She was talking to me via email the other day and the emails kind of went like this

Annette - is your hubby home yet?
Me- no and looks like he will be gone for even longer
Annette - I think your bored and lonely "we need a girls night out"
Annette - "OK I ADMIT IT, I'M WEAK AND I NEED A NIGHT OUT!! DRAG IT OUT OF ME ALREADY!!"
Me - notice I didn't even have time to say GREAT IDEA... LOL but I finally got to say Great Idea
I was just laughing to myself thinking wow she needs a stress free life like me! Great a new friend would be nice, so we made plans to go out on Friday Night.

we met for dinner and had our kids and sent them packing, I mean if you plan on going to bars up and down main street you might as well walk right! That way we aren't drinking and driving so we were smart that way. We dropped into this little hole in the wall, I had corona she had tequila. We had a couple of drinks and talked and got to know each other. Come to find out we have a lot in common. It was a good evening, so we decided to go to the next bar. I had Corona she had more tequila! Remember that's her drink of choice and she's the one who told me your clothes fall off. I was asking her about that because I was worried maybe I should watch her so they didn't just fall off - LOL - she claims it is a song (sure it is!!! LOL). I had beer only because I am still fighting this stupid cold. So her hubby is coming to pick us up which is perfect beacuse we had been drinking, anyway I start to tell them about a story that happened to us when we first moved up here. So I thought I would share it with you.

I have always been a valley girl, born and raised is Southern California. Had my children in Southern California and my hubby is from Southern California. So we moved up to Northern California on 10 acres. Now we are city folks, rush rush rush. Need everything now. So took a little time to get adjusted for sure. Anyway one weekend our very good friend Rob comes up to visit. By Visit I mean he comes up to party and work his ass off helping us get the property in order. You know there is a lot of shit to do when you have 10 acres to care for. We had to remove about 40 trees to put our house in so we had a massive pile of trees that needed to be cut up and made into firewood. Now let me set the stage for you shall I. Raining out side so everything is muddy and slippery and just plain crappy outside. Kenny (my hubby) and Rob have a few beers - and when I say a few I mean A TON! I must have had a couple (maybe 1 or 5). They are out side in this horrible gloomy weather with chain saws - that sounds scary, a tractor, and of course their beer. So they are moving this stump down the hill, pulling it with the tractor to this spot we call the stump grave yard. I mean what are you going to do with 40 stumps. We have a lot of deer up here and they run around all day and night. So the deer are coming by and see Kenny and Rob and the tractor. One gets a little close and gets spooked, a little guy, Well the poor little deer jumps and by a freak accident breaks his leg. Now I am in the house at my computer I am sure because I am always at the damn computer. Kenny runs in the house out of breath and tells me Cindy you have to come here a Deer broke it's leg it's a baby what should I do? So I run out of the house to see the deer almost falling on my ass due to the slippery mud - had nothing to do with the beer! So I see this deer I am freaking out. I Know, I am gonna call the Deer Rescue People. So I run into the house and grab the phone. I dial 411 - Can I have the number to the Deer Rescue in Placerville. The operator says excuse me? There is no deer rescue how about the animal shelter. I say OK because I know they will have the number to the Deer Rescue. Well it's a Sunday and it isn't open but they have a number you can call so I call it -you know for emergencies. Now picture this in my mind I am thinking that the deer rescue is going to come out with the deer ambulance get this little deer and put him or her on a stretcher take it away and put a cast on it's leg. What the hell do I know about deer anyway. So I call the number it is the Sheriff so I have them come out. They must know how to get to the deer rescue, right? Well here they come walking up with their guns. I am like What The F***!! They proceed to tell us that they have to shoot the deer. I am saying are you kidding me I don't want that I want you to send the Deer Rescue people. They try and explain there is no such place, but I know they are just saying that because they are really hunters. So I tell them no you can't just leave the poor thing alone. They also inform us at this time that we can shoot the deer because it is our property and that it is fine. So we send them away I am just sick at the thought that they want to shoot this poor animal and not put a damn cast on it's leg. So this deer is falling all over the place and it's mother is right by its side. I am heart broken about this and want to blame Kenny and Rob - of course it must be their fault right? So I go in the house, hoping it will all just somehow go away and I will see the little guy limping around for the rest of his life. So Kenny and Rob come into the house - they come in as a team - I am sure they were more worried about what I was going to do to them then that damn deer. They explain to me this deer is suffering and we really need to shoot it. So I break down and say okay we have to do what we have to do. So We all go out there Kenny with his stupid little pistol and Rob right behind him and me standing at the top of the hill yelling you better not miss because I will kill you. Anyway Kenny says he has to get close so he won't miss. But the mother is right there and now Kenny is saying shit I can't shoot this deer especially not in front of it's mother. So he can't bring himself to do it, and I tell him, no problem that's a good thing because tomorrow is Monday and I can find the Deer Rescue place. The next morning the poor thing was dead and we barried it. And we realized at that moment we were NOT country folks by any means.

Okay so here is what I learned from the whole experience! THERE IS NO DAMN DEER RESCUE! We should have shot the damn thing and kept the meat especially when I just had to spend 134.00 on groceries for NOTHING the other day. And City folks probably have no right to move to the country without lessons and classes! And even more beer can make it seem OKAY!

Next I can tell you about the damn day and the lawn mower!

My Son's Drumline

They took 2nd place in this video. Would put up the champisonships but you can't hear them play with all our screaming. Andrew is the one in the yellow. They rocked it!


Thank God It's Thursday!!!!!

Almost done with the week from hell man. This week has been one of the worst weeks I have seen in a very long time as far as my website goes. Business is down by 75% and I am not exaggerating. So a place for me to rant about it is just what the doctor ordered. Between the every rising prices of food, gas and everything you need to live, all the products I sell have been seeing price increases as well, now we need to raise our prises and that makes shoppers leave even further. What's a girl to do anymore. obviously I need to own a oil well, did you see that a barrel of oil hit $115.00 today. No wonder we are all unable to spend any money everything has to go to gas. I think I am going to buy and electric car. No better yet a solar powered car.



So let me tell you a little bit about what's going on with me, other then the stupid business, we can talk about that later! So my hubby is out of town, he works in the movie industry. Right now as we speak he is working with Johnny Depp. How I wish I was there. I love that guy! He's hot! And from so many women I have talked to they love him to. I have to fight off a bunch of them I can see. My husbands funny, usually he tells me - oh he is a jerk or Oh he beats his dog or Oh he hates kids, when ever I say so and so is hot! You know what I mean. Anyway to top of the fact that I am not there, he has to tell me Johnny Depp is a really down to earth nice guy. So now just shoot me please. I could be on location visiting my husband (lol yeah like that's why I would go) but no I am sitting here ranting on my blog. What's wrong with this picture. I need to get the hell out of here and go visit don't you think? enough about that whole thing makes me sad I am not there!

Better subject so I was talking with another set of friends today and discussing the whole we need to make money and the economy and how I have come up with the master plan on a stress free life! i have figured out away for everyone to become stress free and it really doesn't take to much energy or time. I think I am on to something here and could prove to be profitable at the same time. well profitable in the fact that I won't need to spend any money, so profitable. And you to can achieve this stress free life by doing what I am certain will catch on soon! you guessed it I am back on the "Live a Stress Free Alcoholic Life Style. Let's just call it LSFALS from now on.... So I was talking to my good friend Phyllis today and told her my idea. Which she thought was a fantastic idea! She to is stressed just like the rest of us. As we were exchanging drink recipes for the LSFALS cause she told me how she built a home made stile when she was a kid. I thought to myself this is perfect. Why do you ask? Simple now I have a way to make my booze for cheap!!!!!!! Brilliant and I figured you would like to know as well.... So she told me they took a 5 pound coffee can put a tube in it and potatoes and boiled it over a flame. Now I am sure there is more to it then that, but we're on the right track I think. She said what they got out of it tasted like shit but....LOL so I said great you got vodka. I am going to look up stile making on the web and I will let you know. In the mean time here are our ideas for you to lead LSFALS!

Our Drinks To A Stress Free Life..... (idea's from friends passed on to new friends)

Cindy - Okay rum and diet coke still watching the calories, but I have a great recipe for Pain Killers and they come in different degree's. Considering my stress level I think I need a number 4 which means: 4 parts rum, some ice, and you just wave the guava and pineapple juice over the glass and call it done. Top that off with a few Advil and your good to go.

Phyllis - Martini's she definitely loves martini's - vodka Martini's - i wonder if it has anything to do with the potatoes she tried to make booze out of. LOL And hey if that doesn't work for you just do what we did, bring over 1 bottle of wine and proceed to open another 6 and drink them all between 3 people, through in a pizza or two and your good to go - Trust me it works we have done it!

Laura - my favorite drink is Kettle, Soda, Lemon, however, if you do a couple of shots of Sambuca that always helps! and lately I have begun drinking Proseca (italian sparkling wine but not champagne) in the morning on Sunday's just to start the day off well... yikes! - Me thinks she has a problem LOL

Mickey - The girl is still stuck on Bud Lite.. Her answer to everything is a tall can. Every time she calls she says blah blah is pissing me off I just cracked a tall can.... I think she has an addiction to Bud Lite or everything pisses her off???????? LOL

Jacklyn - Straight shots of tequila, and I mean lots of them. She has assured me that if I feel the littlest amount of stress I can do a few shots and everything will be okay.

Annette - Patron, another tequila answer, however I have been informed by her that you need be careful of this as it can cause your clothes to fall off apparently for no good reason.

Sandy - Pomegranate Martini, the pomegranate juice is high in antioxidents so it cleanses your body giving the vodka more room in your system to remove the stress! She might be on to something added health benefits.


Will have more on the LSFALS stile making later after I have researched this further. next your gonna hear How Sandy wants to be Queen of the United States - She might have something.

Hump Day Is Over Rated

Well it is hump day, or almost the end of it actually and all I have to say is thank god it is almost done. Today was a day from hell with the web store. No orders to speak of as a matter a fact looks everyone is to afraid to buy anything anymore. Let me just tell you about my trip to the grocery store. I just went day before yesterday and I got everything I needed and checked out, I was in total SHOCK. My bill was 134.00 for 4 bags of stuff. And that was with no meat! I just knew they had to have made an error so I am in the car telling my son, get out your cell phone and ad that stuff up. Something is wrong there is just NO WAY that could be 134.00, I didn't even get a beer or a bottle of wine. He added it up and it was right. So after I told everyone I can't believe the cost of my grocery bill I was watching the news. And wouldn't you know it, "Grocery's are up by 25% over the last 2 months". Well what the heck is a person supposed to do? I am now not only gonna drink all day (will have to brew my own hooch) I guess I am gonna have to grow and raise my own food.

Shit I will turn in to Jacklyn a hillbilly. There has to be another way. Got any ideas? I am open to suggestions.

The rice patties are looking pretty good right about now.

Let's Get The day off right

So sitting here discussing with one of my best friends on just how messed up the economy is and how everyone is going out of business and food is high and gas is high and so on and so on. We were thinking of what ways we could make some real money. Real Estate is out, E-commerce is out, and hell no not going to be a grocery store so we think we have come up with a sure fire solution and way to make money. Rice - we are going to grow rice. I can see it now all we need to do is find a place to grow it, oh okay we found that, perfect, we are all ready on our way. Well we have a tractor so we got that covered, of course the cost of gas to get it from one state to the next is going to be what about 500.00 now a days. Okay we can scrap that together. So we got land, we have a tractor oh we need water. Well hell yeah the property has a well, perfect because who can afford the water bill. Now we just have to figure out how we are going to do. I can see it now her and i getting up early in the morning with our huge rice picking hats on, going out into this marshy mess to only say "hey you wanna have a cocktail this can wait". We should be able to harvest a bucket full each day, on a good day. Damn just found out it is to dry to grow rice on the land we were talking about.



Maybe we should really just become authorities on how to drink your way to a stress free environment! I wonder if there is a call for that? You roll out of bed, try not to hit your face on the end table, make your way to the bathroom. Oh my head hurts a bit from last night so make sure to grab the aspirin! Now do your business, I don't think you need to brush your teeth though all the booze is going to kill anything anyway! LOL!!! Now work your way into the kitchen, don't walk into anything, be in touch with your surroundings, don't touch your surroundings by walking into them! Now pull out your favorite spirit, just the sound of that makes it seem okay doesn't it? Pour a nice stiff cocktail. Now sit back and relax, you deserve it! Let all the stress roll off your shoulders! that's it now you can go about your day and continue with 1 cocktail per hour! This should do fine! LOL Now from all my friends here are their favorite Cocktail Recipes!


Laura

my favorite drink is Kettle, Soda, Lemon, however, if you do a couple of shots of Sambuca that always helps! and lately I have begun drinking Proseca (italian sparkling wine but not champagne) in the morning on Sunday's just to start the day off well... yikes!

Jacklyn

Tequila, lots and lots of shots of Tequila. According to Jacklyn if you take a few shots of Tequila and call her later EVERYTHING will be fine!

Mickey

Bud Light, you can never have to many only to few. Husband pisses you off have a beer, kids piss you off have a beer, relatives piss you off have a beer, utility companies piss you off have a beer! Basically just have a beer!

Cindy

Diet Coke and Rum, yes diet coke gotta watch the calories! Have about 6 of those and you wont give a cap about anything! You can even mix it up a bit, have a cold add some vitamin C drink rum and fruit juice!

Okay back to reality for a little while, have to work on my website and figure out why in the hell no one on this planet is ordering!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tuesday and still feeling sick

Another day of this horrible cold thing that is going around and I am getting a bit pissy about it! I am feeling like someone should just come and shoot me! I have gotten some great advice from great friends. Tequila, Vodka, any booze should do the trick and kill anything living inside me! Maybe I should try that, only problem is I am to damn sick to get up!

Will write more tomorrow, I am going to come up with a master plan on how to get rich quick!

Monday the day from hell

So I got up as usual today only to find my throat was sore and my nose was stuffy and a felt like I had a fever. But hey that's okay especially when you have kids and work to do. As I stumbled into the kitchen to make my coffee, the first thing I do every morning, I stubbed my toe on a box of trash I have been asking my son to take out for over 2 weeks now. I felt like crap and I wanted to just crawl right back into bed. But no can do when you run a little Internet business on the side. So off to my always cluttered desk I went. Turn on the computer a wow what do you know everyone starts to Instant Message me, hey where are the orders, hey where is my order, hey we have a problem. Hey no duh we have a problem I just freaking got up, I feel like crap and I don't even want to be here doing this anymore. Yes we have a problem. So I started my day as like I always do, check the store, yes we have a few orders, nothing to write home about. In all reality I could have just gone back to bed. I mean after all over the weekend the site was down anyways and so was Google so not only could I get no orders, I had to advertise to get NO orders. But that's a whole different rant! Anyway back to my story. So the day went by pretty uneventful for a Monday really, so I suppose I should be thankful for that much. A few problems here and there, nothing out of the norm. As the day progressed I felt even worse then when I got up. And everything I seemed to do just turned to crap. You ever have one of those days? Well needless to say my business is slow, and i mean slow, what's the problem all day long I am stressing over it. Where are the order show am I going to pay my bills, where can i file a BK, who can take the dogs, where is the husband, why am I sick, what did I do to deserve all this? All these thoughts running through my pounding head. Then it hits me, I know I was a total Jack Ass in my last life, so in this life I am getting the royal screw. That must be it. I started to think, why am I wasting my time, life is so short. I needed to find something better to focus on so here it is a blog, where I can vent all my frustrations and then some. Maybe find some humors things to talk about.

So it's 4:30am on Tuesday morning and I can't sleep no matter what I try. Wonder if it has anything to do with the extra Strong Starbucks coffee I made myself at 10:00pm. Duh ya think? That and the fact that I am so stressed out I can't even see straight. I mean what does a person have to do to make a living these days? I see these people who do nothing and I mean nothing and get money falling out of the ski, what the heck?

So today I need to be up in 3 hours and you can bet I will be a real princess to deal with. LOL i feel bad for anyone who wants to talk to me. I don't even want to talk to me right now. I have just had one of those days, you ever have one where you just wish you could get rid of it completely?

Okay enough about that tomorrow I will let you know just how great my Tuesday is!

Talk soon.
