This warning sign is located in my car and every time we use the cupholder we laugh cause in order for you to hit your head on a can that is in there, you would have to bend completely over and touch your knees with your head. It's pretty low to say the least.

My sister in law Becca sent all the family members a little cloth square so we can decorate it and send it back to her. She is then going to put them all together and make a quilt to send to my brother Brad who is deployed. She said we could use fabric paint or thread. I chose thread. The little pictures represent the twelve months of the year. (really hoping I didn't have to explaine that part!) I know my mom did one with a nativity scene and my aunt did one with a moose, she lives in NH. I also sewed one for my grandma. Meaning she also got a square and I put some pictures of snowmen and raindeer and christmasy stuff and her name on it. Can't wait to see the finished project.
I know its a bit early...but check out the new sheriff in town. We finally found a pair of boots and so Chase's holloween costume is now complete! I was having him try on the vest that I made and he really thought he was a cowboy. Yes, that is a sheriffs star on the vest. It is metal and adorable!
He started posing up a storm once we got started. I took about ten pictures of him. He is so cute.
Oh, see the black picture next to him? That is a picture that we drew while Jarrett was at one of his scout meetings. It's a witch with a cat by her feet and she is holding a broom and a toothbrush. I guess she wants to take care of her teeth while she is flying through the night! Of course I drew the picture but it was Chase's idea of what to draw.

I got an e-mail from Rach saying that she is really coming down to see me. (well she told her brother she was coming down to see him, but thats ok I know the real truth, wink wink!) I can't wait to see her! It's been tooooo long.

Hope you all enjoy my pictures. Have a great day!

I am blank... I know I havn't written in a couple of days yet I can't think of one thing to write about. I have a picture to post but I didn't bring the cord with me. I could tell you that I have been playing Runescape alot more these days. Like in my spare time, and when the boys are not on the computer, which is not really that often. I would play while I'm at work but this computer won't even load up the log in page.
Right now it is 5:45pm and I am still at work waiting on a truck to make a delivery. I normally get off at 4. I talked to the office and they said that the truck should be here about 5. When I called my boss 15 minutes ago he asked if I could wait till 6. This is all very interesting, right?
Jarrett did go on a campout last weekend. It was a fishing campout. They stayed on Panther Key which is an island. The troop got some free pontoons rented to us so they could get out there. Jarrett found out that he likes fresh snook! He didn't catch it but one of the other boys did. They had it for dinner. He also said that one of the boys almost got bit by a shark. It was inches from his feet. It was a small one, I think he said a black shark.?! They also went hunting for treasure and found some really good Calusa Indian stuff. Shells used for tools and pottery. He really liked the campout even though it was very primitive and was only one night.

Well its now 6pm and no one showed. I'm going home!

This is a plant that started out as a twig that I thought was just stuck in the gutter at work. But We have been at this location for a year now and it seems that the "twig" was actually growing. I don't know how but it does.

A little like my life, huh? I mean some days I don't know how I pull through and come out the next day. I was just in a situation this past weekend that oh myI did not know where I was going to end up.

Last Thursday I was at work and as usual I end up hanging up on a certain decroted piece of crap that calls me every day. (Rick, for anyone that needs to know.) Finally at the end of the day I made the decision to put him to rest. I answered the phone again and told that piece of crap that I would not be taking any more of his calls and I will report him to the authorities the very next time he called. He informed me that he had some interesting information about me and a certain faulcification that he thinks I used on an application for some gov't help. I told him to screw off and hung up the phone.

Turns out that he thinks that I lied on the application about my address. What a jerk. 1. How did he see any information on my application? and 2. Well lets just say that two is that fact that he is a real piece...ok Heather calm down already.

Anyway, He (or someone that uses the same words and phrases he does) ends up calling the department of childrens and families on me saying that I am "not motivated enough to take care of the kids". among a few other useless and stupid statements.
So my Mom calls me on Friday and says that a very nice lady came by and she wants to talk to me. I finally meet up with her on Saturday (after I took Chase to the zoo of course). She talked with the boys and checked the house for food and beds and that sor of stuff. When she left she said she did not see any type of abuse at all and she will be in touch with my other contacts I gave her.

Ricky sent Rick (his Dad) a message that stated he was a stupid stupid man and that if any abuse was done it was by him. I told Ricky not to waste his time on him. Rick's step-dad Pappy called me and said that rick does not know what Ricky is talking about and wants to get together to talk. I told him no.

So, even though it was very time consuming, its good to know I came though with flying colors. I am a good mom and my kids don't think I abuse them...

YAY
