At first I was sad because this is my first Halloween without Eric.
He lives in his own place now 2 hours away. He had a party. It was him, his new girlfriend and 2 of her friends.
Rick barbequed some great fajitas
I went to the end of our road and gave candy to the trick or treaters that passed by.
No one came to my door because we live way in the back down a long dark scary road.
I had fun afterall.
Then I went and saw that I had won 1st place in the Halloween Photo contest. YEAH
I am tired now and have to go and wash my hair.
I have to be at work tomorrow at 5am.
Happy Halloween 2006!!!
Warning!!!!!!!!!
If you come to my house to trick or treat today and say trick or treat?
I am going to say...oh thank you I will take a treat and reach into your bag and find the best piece of candy...open it and eat it.
If you say one word I will trick you by saying look over there and then grabbing the whole bag and closing my door to finish off the treats.
You can't teach an old dog new tricks!!!!
Happy Halloween AHHHHHA

Do A Load Of Laundry and Kiss Your Washer
' Washing Clothes Recipe' -- imagine having a recipe for this ! ! !<?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = O />
This is an exact copy as written and found in an old scrapbook - with spelling errors and all.
WASHING CLOTHES
Build fire in backyard to heat kettle of rain water. Set tubs so smoke wont blow in eyes if wind is pert. Shave one hole cake of lie soap in boilin water.
Sort things, make 3 piles
1 pile white,
1 pile colored,
1 pile work britches and rags.
Take white things, rub dirty spots on board, scrub hard, and boil, then rub colored don't boil just wrench and starch.
Take things out of kettle with broom stick handle, then wrench, and starch.
Hang old rags on fence.
Spread tea towels on grass.
Pore wrench water in flower bed. Scrub porch with hot soapy water. Turn tubs upside down.
Go put on clean dress, smooth hair with hair combs. Brew cup of tea, sit and rock a spell and count your blessings.
================================================
Paste this over your washer and dryer Next time when you think things are bleak, read it again, kiss that washing machine and dryer, and give thanks. First thing each morning you should run and hug your washer and dryer, also your toilet---those two-holers used to get mighty cold!
For you non-southerners -wrench means rinse. ;)

First Reaction
First reaction
Type what comes to your mind first when you hear these 35 words. Don't think and don't go back to change. Doesn't matter how random, just type it!
1. Cigarettes: bad habit causes sickness but people smoke anyway knowing that it could kill them. 
2. Sex: if you are happily married it is a good thing that God created to bring us closer together and to form a bond. Not for the spur of the moment fly by night.
Just kidding about this picture Mom Laugh Out Loud!!!!!
3. Relationships: work when both people are on the same page and commited and give each other a hand up and doesn't work if you don't.
4. Your first boyfriend: broke my heart. But God showed me that he wasn't the one...Thank God for unanswered prayers....
5. Power Rangers: Powder Puff girls
7. Crack: step on one and you could break your mothers back. I really believed this as a child and was really careful not to.
8. Food: it doesn't matter how much or how little you eat. If you are a woman it is going to go straight to your gut and butt. If you are a man you can eat as much as you want and it goes away....
9. The President: I prefer not to say.
10. War: a senseless tragedy....why can't we all just follow the rules and get along. Growing up we are taught by our parents to respect each other...if we would just follow that great advice there would be no need for war....
11. Cars: get you to where you need to be. And once you have parked them and walk away who knows what you drive unless you tell them. I would rather not have the monthly bill. I love my car. It is paid off and gets me where I need to be.
12. Gas Prices: go up close to the holidays when they know more people will be travelling. I fill up when the price is low and pray that I don't run out when it is high....
13. Halloween: should be a fun safe activity for children with trick or treating, carnivals and pumpkins. Without having to worry about the evil people who are out to harm them. 
14. Bon Jovi: old hippy
15. Religion: I believe that Jesus died on the cross to save me from my sins and he lives in my heart. If I don't read it in the Bible, I don't care who says it. I only try to live my life by the original rules God gave us.
16. MySpace: this is my space and that is yours.
17. Worst Fear: I used to have a driving phobia, but my son moved away and I either had to get over it or not see him as much. So now I say FEAR NOT. All things are possible with God. And just breathe!!!!
18. Marriage: A rollercoaster. Find a good partner and strap yourself in for life and hold on tight. You might experience some bumps along the way, but the ride is thrilling.
19. Paris Hilton: she's hot...that was my first reaction. Actually I kinda feel sorry for these little rich girls.
20. Brunettes: was born one
20. Blondes: became one and they do have more fun....plus you can get away with alot more as they will all say...she is just a blonde.LOL
21. Redheads: temper
22: Politics: a bunch of men trying to be boss

All She Needs Is A Little Red Hat
Mommy decided to dress me up in one of Erics old baby shirts. I was kinda cold so I agreed and let her put it on me without a fuss.
We went to show Daddy and he said if I had a red hat I would look like one of those monkeys.
I thought that was rude!
It was warmer though so I didn't mind one bit.
That was last night...I now sit in the bathroom in time out because I went outside and rolled in some cat poop. Mommy and Daddy hate it when I smell like that so she gave me a bath.
I got her back though because when my bath was over I shook water all over Mommy.
And the next time I go outside I will find that poop again just to show her and then I will jump up on her pillow when she is not looking and give her something to be mad about.
It's a dogs life......... Tiny
