Hello!

Today is Lila's 7th birthday! Today school was cancelled due to excessive heat, can you believe that? Apparently the elementary schools have no air conditioning, hell, most of the buildings here in Pennsylvania don't have air conditioning! So, we started our day with an argument with Eric over the heat and breakfast, but after we all ate it got a little better. Lila showed a genuine compassionate side today. Eric bought ham, egg, and cheese hotpocket, and a sausage, egg, cheese hotpocket. Lila picked the sausage but when she learned I didnt like ham, she got upset and said I could have the sausage ones instead and when I refused she offered a compromise, one of each for both of us. She has never done that. She said today is a special day and she wanted to be nice today. That didn't really last long,but was sweet when it happened.
I spent most of the day on the second floor cleaning out the new room. Took me all day and just got all the clothes bagged up. My aunt moved around her third floor. After work, Lila decided Nifty Fifty's for her birthday dinner. We got burgers and fries all around. Then the restaurant sang Happy Birthday to Lila and gave her an ice cream. At home it was relax time, got my assignments for the week lined up, I know what I have to do there. Showed off the Snow White dress I got for Rowan. I got a cape with hood, rain poncho, bag/purse, backscratcher (which Raven loves), a fan, sports tape, and a new dress for Raven.
Well, that is all for today, talk at ya tomorrow peeps!!

So, today has been a fun filled day. For lunch we had Burger King. Then I went to PathMark and got a Red Velvet Cake with an "Over the Hill too OLD to count" candle and surprised my Aunt Ginny with the cake and presents for her birthday which is TOMORROW! She is gonna be 50!


And since Lila, Raven and myself all got something we wanted this weekend, I decided to take Eric to the restaurant he has been wanting to go back to, Bertucci's.

I ordered the Rigatoni, Broccoli, Shrimp in Lemon Garlic sauce and two, yes I said two, Tiramisu Martini's





Eric ordered the "Taste of Bertucci's"



Raven had the Ultimate Pizza



The food was oh so good, and service was even better. So worth the price, even though we spent $91.85. And they even gave us cute little boxes for our leftovers.


Ending the day at home, snuggled in my little chair, watching Four Brothers and continuing my read of David Eddings "The Tamuli"

If I have entertained you or given some good advice, don't forget to donate to my cause. All proceeds go to buying a new home for me and my girls.

New computer and new phone. Toshiba Satellite and a sanyo innuendo. So far, I like them. Started my bachelors last week. Nearing end of week two of my first class. Getting ready to turn in my first team assignment. Been thinking about Dad and Amiee lately. Lots of funky dreams. I keep praying someday. I wonder what she is doing every day. Alicia hit like on a mutual friend's photo. I have to admit I looked at her page but there is nothing I can see. Sometimes I hate the privacy stuff on Facebook, but its good when I want to hide stuff. Domenic's birthday party is today over at Aunt Ginny's. Lila had a doctor appt yesterday and got a flu shot. Weird they have appts. on Saturdays but it was good, not that many people in the lobby. When to the book warehouse yesterday and got 8 books for just about $20. It was interesting. Gods am I hungry so gonna go. TTFN!!

Blogger Buddy

Got a new Blogger Buddy Icon for my gadget Sidebar. Wicked cool!! This is my first post using my new blogger buddy. I can already say " I LOVE IT!" Maybe this can help me keep up with my blogs. I did write a new short story but it is explicit erotic fantasy. I am debating on whether to post it or not. Let me know what you think.

OMG! They killed Grace! Oh man, I haven't been that heartbroken since Charmed killed off Prue Halliwell. Series finale of Saving Grace. Grace dies in an explosion that we hope took out that evil guy too. Just as she excepted God into her heart. With that said...
Tonight, Chicken noodle soup and chicken salad.

3 lbs chicken
2 stalks celery
whole fresh mushrooms
spinach leaves
lettuce
shredded cheese
can of cream of celery
can of cream of chicken
1 cup elbow noodles
whole red onion

Boiled chicken and shredded it. 1/3 for salad, and 2/3 for soup. Used chicken water added one celery stalk, mushrooms, and 2/3 onion and noodles. When noodles were almost done added chicken back to water and the two cans of soup. Mixed and heated through.
For the salad I put the other celery stalk and rest of mushrooms, spinach leaves, lettuce head, shredded cheese, 1/3 onion. Topped with bacon bits and dressing.

Yummy! Elbow noodles might have been the wrong noodle. Boyfriend says rice might have been better.

Went grocery shopping today for the week, spent 80 dollars and got food for all week. Spent all day on ancestry.com. Found another cousin! It was very exciting. My girls might be getting sick. We shall see how they feel tomorrow. Raven finally found the joy of listening to music. She went on and on about all the music she found. Listened to Stevie Wonder and found him amazing. LOL. Hopefully she will keep it up if she wants to be a singer she needs to.

So, today is Father's Day! Happy father's day to all the fathers out there. We spent the day with Grandpa Dave and his family. Chicken wings, salad, corn on the cob, watermelon, chocolate cake and ice cream! Great day, and it ended with a thunderstorm. I love thunderstorms! Finished two math tests today. Didnt do so great on them, but at least they are finished, and that ends week two in this block of classes. We also said happy birthday to Amber today. Hence the chocolate cake and ice cream. I found a cool website today, couponclippers.com. You pay a few cents for a .50 or 1.00 off coupons and they mail them to you. Awesome stuff! Saw the new "The Next Foodnetwork Star" on the TV.

I found Inbox Dollars, and they really do pay you for reading emails, filling out surveys, playing games, referring friends, or completeing offers. You can see my banner over on the side, clicking on that will take you straight to Inbox Dollars. I spend alot of time on this site and the more time I spend the more emails they send me. It isnt alot at first but the longer you work at it the more money comes in. But dont take my word for it, check it out. Just click, or you can make a donation by clicking on my donate button. I am raising money to buy my family our first home after 20 years in trailer parks and dead end jobs.
