Day 110, 2012

I've been in a terrible mood today. Terrible mood.  I'm thinking perhaps it's a delayed full moon for me or something. I'm just pissed off. I hate the world, I hate my job, I'm hating people.  I want to run away. I want to move as far away from this place as I can.

My first thoughts when deciding to move as far away as possible is to the state of Washington.  I've no idea why I first think of Washington State when I think or moving to another state. It's weird.. I think Washington State and I think Australia when I think country. Though I know there are other countries I'd rather visit. I guess living in Australia just seems cool. I'm a strange kinda gal!

So my thoughts of Washington... Of course there is the crush I have on the Twilight series. For those who haven't read or seen the Twilight series the writer based her books on a city called Forks. They talk about Seattle some and then there is Port Angeles.  I've dabbled in the thought of travelling there and checking out the towns she talked about.  The movie makes some parts of it look really awesome. I'm thinking I will wait a few years and check it out. When all the glamor and all the tourism dies down. Ha!  Do we think that will ever happen?!

All the tourist pics made me nauseous!

I think honestly I'm just wishing for the small town places that Mr Monkey Butt enjoys telling me doesn't exist anymore.  Way to make life a little more unbearable!  There has to be one somewhere, doesn't there?

Back to the point, there's beaches in Washington, this is pretty much a state that offers like everything, right? I bet you can day trip to Canada or Alaska can't you?  Anyone from or near the state of Washington? Ever went to visit? 

To take ya back in time, I think the glamor of Washington state ( for me) started with Seattle and another small town called Aberdeen. The home place of Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain.  I've always loved Nirvana and Kurt Cobain. He was  my high school crush, yes he was already dead. But I loved him still. He was my God  as weird as that may seem. I loved him, his music and his awesomeness!  I'd always dreamt of travelling to Seattle to visit his town, the bridges he slept under, visit Aberdeen. Everything..

I guess I've a lot of interest in the state of Washington, I'm blaming Hollywood for that.  It's also sitting right above Oregon and I've  heard from more than one person the cliffs in Oregon are to die for.  I'm hoping one day, I can leave this place, if only for a year or so and travel to these places that seem so awesome to me!

So I'm feeling better, if only a little.  Mama Monkey Butt and I talked for a bit today, on more than one occasion!  It was nice to rant and rave to someone who understands and listens. Will laugh a lot and take the things you have to say with acceptance.  She's the best!!   

As you can tell, it was  day from hell.  I know I can't run off and leave this place, because Mama Monkey Butt is here and she needs me and  us right now.

Had an awesome bike ride today after work, I'm so glad Pokey has learned how to ride her bike. She still has to stop some, but it's OK. She's doing so well. Makes me smile!

That's a long ass post this week, hope you all made it to the end!! 

Goodnight dear Dingleberries,

Hang in there!

Saturday, April 21st

Washed my car today!! Finally. It's been a whole year (maybe more) I can't believe I've been so slack. Also removed a couple of old faded stickers from the back glass.  Productive? I'd like to think so.

Mama Monkey Butt the girls and myself went on a Goodwill run today, hit up the Walmart and Mc D's for the kids.  How can they love that shiz?  Lucky me we don't regular a Mc D's!  :)

This just in... Pokey now knows how to ride a bike. It wasn't necessary for me to purchase a new bike for her either.  Thank Gawd. She's been asking for a month or longer for a new bike, we were ready, almost. Because we thought maybe hers was to big?!?! It seemed that way and she was being a total weenie about riding it!

Today on the way home from Mama Monkey Butt's I asked her if she'd be willing to try the bike again, that maybe she had gotten taller since last time?  She agreed!  Made sure to take her out today while waiting for the chicken to cook up, SHE DID IT!  With not much trouble at all, yays!!! I'm soooo happy soooooo happy.  Very happy Mommy! 

All in all, very good Saturday!! No complaints here and look at me go, got my blogging done today as well ::high fives:: 

Goodnight,

Hang in there!

Day 63 and 64, 2012

Day 63, Friday March 9th

Day 64, Saturday March 10th

Mr Monkey Butt worked today and Pokey and I spent the day doing pretty much nothing. Bought a piece of furniture, thinking it was a coffee table only to discover it was an entertainment piece, but turns out I was about to pop the back off and it works just fine as a coffee table ::Exciting::  Hit up the home improvement store and found some extra shelves for my book shelf aka DVD holder.  I swear I can't stand and unorganized mess. I know I'm a cluster fuck of a mess at times, but I make it work, there is an organized feel to it if it's mine and since November I've been staring that that mess and it finally made me mad. I had to fix it.

Got all the laundry done, yay.  Wasn't able to go skating but made a worthless attempt to get Pokey on her bike today and it didn't much work out.  What happened to kids? I remember being a kid and we LOVED to ride our bikes. Like everywhere.  If the training wheels aren't on her she has no interest. She's 8 for gawds sake!

Birthday party tomorrow and some grocery shopping.  Fun Fun Fun... Another weekend just flown right by. It's no fair I tell you. Weekends should be longer.

Enjoy your Sunday, Hang in there!
