Broken Computer Blues....

Well all, after tonight I won't have a computer. I am hopeing that I will get one soon! I hope you all have Happy holidays, and if I get what I want for xmas I will be back ASAP!

Turkey, sweet potato's and family....

I am going to start this blog with a hope you all had a great Thanksgiving, I know I did. Nathan and I went to his grandparents house, had all kinds of delish food. A huge turkey, homemade stuffing, sweet potato's you name it we had it. Dessert everywhere at least 8 pies...pumpkin muffins, chocolate cookie's with white chocolate chips.Then after eveyone one stuffed their faces, we played cards and hung out. The only thing that was wrong was Morghana wasn't there, I miss her so much she will not be going away for the holiday's ever again! But I talked to my mom and she said Morghana was having a blast, she payed t-ball played in the sandbox ate alot of food which is rare of her to do. My time away from her was nice but also boring! I had no idea what to do with myself, all day while Nathan was at work I had no one to talk too.


And houesitting for my parents was a huge mistake! I had 3 dogs and a cat to take care of, it was like taking care of 3 toddlers. One of them constantly pissed on the floor so every morning I had to clean up dog piss. YUCK! And my mom told me that they are going to Las Vegas for new years, and how much do you want to bet they are going to ask Nathan and I to watch the dogs. NO WAY JOSE!

Anyways, I am going to go enjoy some leftovers and relax! You all have a great day.

Happy Thanksgiving, and here are some recipe's for you all!

Go back in time....

I was going through more photo's and I found this one. I think I was 8 or 9 at the time, and we went on vacation to Cali. We went to Disneyland, Grauman's Chinese Theater(where this pic was taken). Whle we were there I even got to see where Lucile Ball lived. I wish I could go back in time and relive my childhood a time when you don't have anything to worry about and no fear. Where I grew up until I was 13 was out in the country, dirt roads, cows, dogs and chickens.

There was a creek, and I would go there during the summer and I would be gone l day, from 7am to 8pm....It was awesome! I would like my daughter to be raised that way..I climbed tree's played in the dirt, bring frogs home and one time I found a dead baby rattlesnake tied a string arond it's neck and drug it around with me until my dad saw me walking down the street barefoot tank top and cut off shorts on and just about had a heart attack.

It was awesome! I wouldn't want Morghana to do that, but I would her to grow up in the country. I long for a simple kind of life. I am tired of traffic, road rage, idiots and crazy people....I would rther play with my daughter out in the yard with animals. I want a farm..lol Imagine me a farmer!

Raccoons are EVIL!!!!!

Okay so Nathan and I are housesitting for my parents, and they have a pretty big backyard and in that backyard they have a pond with some pretty big coy in it.

  

 Well the other morning Nathan got up to go to work at about 5:30am. And Wrangler(blue healer) the biggest dog of my parents needed to go outside, so Nathan let him out and right away Wrangler started barking non-stop....so Nathan went out to see what was going on and there was about a 30lbs raccoon sitting on the edge of the pond...lol Nathan grabbed a stick and was going to hit the racoon but Wrangler got to it first and all Nate could hear was them fighting...he had to physically pull Wrangler off the damn raccoon. I hate raccoons I was assaulted by one when I worked night as a Hotel clerk...Anyways...I thought it was funny....Damn raccoons trying to eat the coy!

Shocking news about my friend Ti.

Well I found out some interesting and shocking news yesterday. My friend Ti whom I have known since I was 15 and is also from what I knew gay. Is dating his friend Alena, don't get me wrong I am happy for the both of them and I wish them all the happiness in the world. I was upset to learn about this from his ex-boyfriend and not from Ti himself.


I miss him alot, we used to be bestfriends(I think we still are). I miss all my friends...they all live so far away.

A few more pics..

Well I found these too, Morghana and I were still in the hospital, my mom and stepdad were there everyday. No one else came to see me really, Morghana's other Grandma came to visit once I think. But anyways, my mom and stepdad look like proud grandparents. I cannot believe how small Morghana was when she was born, and she is so big now. Makes me want another one...a boy.

I found old pics of Morghana...

Since Nathan and I are housesitting for my parents, I have use of my mom's laptop. I was looing at her photo's...and found some pictures of Morghana that I used to have on my old computer. And of course I started crying, because she is with my parents in California she has only been gone since yesterday morning. So, it made me think that I need to gather all the pics of her I can find(most are on the computer) and get them printed and make a scrapbook. I will post some on here so you all can see my beautiful daughter.

Jager and pork chops.

It has been a long time since I wrote in here, I hope(crosses fingers/toes) that for xmas I get a laptop since the desktop at home went belly up. It has very strange and nice not having Internet. I have gotten allot of things at home done, a CRAP ton of reading done(read all 4 Twilight books in 5 days). Almost done with Anne Rice's Sleeping Beauty trilogy.

I have also had time to clean the entire apt. Spend more time with my daughter and more time just thinking. And now, Nov 21st my mom and step dad took Morghana to California for Thanksgiving....mostly to see a sick aunt and another aunt who asked if Morghana could come with them. They won't be back for 9 days, I am going to go MAD!!!!!!!! I almost didn't let her go. I had an awful dream that they got into a car accident, and I wasn't there when she needed me and she kept crying out momma momma!!!! Okay no more...I'm crying now.

Laptop for xmas?

Well since the other computer went to computer heaven, I am hoping that my mom will get me a laptop for Xmas. This is why I have not been online at all......sucks but it's life. I will update whenever I can.....
