My brain hurts everytime I go to the store (when I'm not working that is). If there are 3 choices, there are a dozen, and, why? This is why I believe people are extra crabby and irritated. I know I am. If I can go someplace and not have to chose between 5 different brands, and then how one kind does this, while another does that--come on!!
Example? Shampoo. There is White Rain, Suave, Johnson& Johnson, oh, my God, just to name a few. And each brand has the "type": for normal, oily, dry hair, they have one designed for color treated hair!!!???
I don't get it. I really don't. They are trying to make us mental. There is no need for all these choices. Honestly.
Makeup, handbags, wallets, shoes, the list goes on.
Whatever happened to being simple and having a few choices and leaving it at that?
To be continued....

Pet Peeves
We all have them, and believe me, i'm glad my mother taught me to bite my tongue, because I would be so hated...
Here are a few of mine:
-standing in the middle of the entrance to the grocery store...how rude--carrying on a conversation, no less! Excuse me, get out of the road, people! It's not a one-way street.
(**Warning: this may piss people off, but, it's more of a safety pet peeve that anything else)
-PEOPLE WHO TALK ON THEIR CELL PHONES WHILE DRIVING! Come on, people. I have a standing rule when it comes to cell phones and cars. If I am driving, the only person I answer the phone for is my hubby and if he is with me, I don't answer at all. This is a safety concern. You do not need to talk to anyone that bad. All my friends know if my phone rings and then goes to voicemail, I'm probably driving, and will eventually call them back. When I am driving, the road gets my full undivided attention. I am a master multi-tasker, and yes, I do talk on my phone A LOT, but not behind the wheel. If I know someone I'm talking to is driving, I tell them to call me when they aren't driving, or ask them to pull over.
-TELEMARKETERS, I have voicemail and know how to use it!!

UnPlanned Time
Here is a brief summary of my vacation so far:
This is what Shawne's bedroom looks like after we tore down the loft bed. Now, his mattress us up off the floor, and he has storage under his bed.
This is what my yard looked like after we emptied it out thursday morning. We worked in there from after 9 until after about 5 that afternoon. Stopped long enough to eat.
Will post more pictures of the weekend as I download them.

Nonsense
I know I haven't been around for a while, but, shit happens. Everything from doctor's appointments, work, hubby's p/t, house repairs, blah, blah, blah. Stuff you really want to hear about, I'm sure.
No, I have not been totally non-existant. I have a yahoo blog that I vent to. BUT, I felt the need to put some TLC here. Aren't you glad?
Honestly, I don't have a lot of time to post here. Too damn complicated. Flippin' html and crap, hell, I don't know what that shit is. I know enough to know that I don't have time to sit down and translate it. That is why my blog is so plain :).
Sorry.
When I have more time and know more, I'll add some **dazzle** to this thing. ITMT (in the mean time) bear with me.
Why do they have to make everything so complicated??
More later when I'm not so out of ideas...LOL!
